Applications being accepted
Do you have a strong interest in the Rush
Line BRT Project? Applications to join the Community Advisory Committee are
now being accepted. Serving on this committee is a great way to get involved
and help shape the project.
The Community Advisory Committee
will provide a community voice during the environmental analysis phase of the
project. The committee will advise project decision makers on key
questions, such as:
- Where should stations be placed to best serve transit
users and the surrounding neighborhoods?
- What kind of development and pedestrian, bicycle
and transit connections do we want to see at and near stations?
- How should the project team engage the diverse
communities living, working and playing along the Rush Line BRT route?
- How do we make sure that all communities along
the route benefit from this investment?
Committee members will be selected to reflect the geography
of the Rush Line BRT route and the diversity of people living, working, playing
and doing business along the route. Committee size is expected to be 15-20
people. Membership on the committee is a two-year commitment that will
include quarterly meetings, which will take place on weekday evenings at a
location on or near the Rush Line BRT corridor and accessible by transit.
Dinner will be provided at meetings. Accommodations will be made as needed to
ensure that meetings are accessible to committee members.
Application forms are available online. Printed copies can be requested by sending an email or calling 651-266-2772.
Applications will be accepted until
positions are filled. Review of the applications will begin on Friday, April
20.
