We are encouraging more participation and attendance by member agencies in the oncoming year in order to make the TAC a more effective group. Please contact the Transportation Agency if you cannot attend a Committee meeting. If you cannot attend a meeting it is highly recommended that you send your alternate in your place. Your courtesy to the other Committee members to assure a quorum is appreciated. If the designated TAC member or alternate member for your agency needs to be changed or updated, please send a letter to the Transportation Agency to make the change.
Until February 28, 2023, the meetings will continue to be held via remote conferencing under the Governor's declared state of emergency, which is expected to be lifted on February 28, 2023. Starting in March 2023, the meetings will be held at the TAMC conference room at 55-B Plaza Circle, Salinas, or other location to be determined in advance of each meeting (the agenda will specify).
If necessary, it will be possible to make the in-person meetings accessible for remote participation, following the revised Brown Act rules for remote participation, which requires at least a quorum to attend in person. Committee members needing to participate remotely must get prior approval from the Committee, unless timing makes that impossible, in which case the authorization can occur at the meeting, citing “emergency circumstances.” The statute defines “emergency circumstances" as "a physical or family medical emergency that prevents a member from attending in person.” In addition, Committee Member remote participation is limited to 20% of the meetings, meaning no more than 2 Committee meetings, per year.
Staff will present an update and request input from the Committee at the meeting, whether it may be desirable to make the meetings remotely accessible throughout the year, even upon the resumption of in-person meetings.
