King County Metro seeks members to serve on the new Access Paratransit Advisory Committee – Apply by Oct. 18

Oct 7, 2019

King County Metro invites the public to apply for membership for its new Access Paratransit Advisory Committee (APAC).

The committee will advise Metro, the King County Executive and King County Council on transit issues and policy related to matters of equal access to public transportation for persons with disabilities. Metro’s Access Paratransit program serves people with disabilities who are unable to use fixed-route buses, helping them lead more independent lives.

The APAC is specifically charged with providing advice and counsel on Access paratransit service and identifying opportunities for continued improvement. This includes reviewing and commenting on Metro's annual performance metrics and trends relevant to Access, assessing feedback from Access customer surveys, and serving as a resource for transit promotion.

Applications are welcome from King County residents that reflect the diversity of the community, including Access riders, people with physical and/or intellectual disabilities from rural and urban areas, people of color, LGBTQ, seniors, family members, care providers, and those with limited English proficiency.

Interested in serving? Complete an online application at https://publicinput.com/KCMetroAPAC by Friday, October 18, 2019. The APAC’s members will be appointed by the Executive and confirmed by the Council by motion. Selections will be made by early 2020.

The APAC application is also available in other accessible formats and additional languages, including Spanish, Vietnamese, Arabic, simplified and traditional Chinese, Russian, and Punjabi.
