The California Air Resources Board (CARB) annually hosts public workgroups in line with the development of the Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives. The Proposed Fiscal Year 2025-26 Funding Plan will be published and presented before the CARB Board in November 2025. Through the Funding Plan, CARB staff provides recommendations for funding and policy changes for its incentive projects and programs. These recommendations include:
- CARB's priorities for the current funding cycle
- Fund allocations for each project category
- Improvements to projects based on public input and CARB staff's evaluation of projects in previous years
- Strategies to measure changes in behavior and the socioeconomic benefits resulting from projects
-
Plans for potential adjustments during the year, if needed (Also referred to as contingency provisions

Purpose of the Workgroup
CARB staff hosts workgroups related to the Funding Plan and project implementation updates for various CARB initiatives. Furthermore, CARB staff offer this platform to listen to community voices on their clean transportation needs.

All interested community members are invited to attend.
Background
The Annual Funding Plan for Clean Transportation Incentives is a detailed outline of how money will be spent on programs related to low carbon transportation and air quality. This plan is created each fiscal year to guide the allocation of funds appropriated to CARB through the State budget and includes information on CARB's goals and strategies for investing in clean technology. The Funding Plan process occurs between May and November. As such, CARB staff may like to hold workgroups outside of the Funding Plan process to provide specific updates to interested members of the public and to gather public feedback that can be incorporated into elements of the Funding Plan.
