Intercity Transit seeks volunteers to help shape public transit

The Intercity Transit Authority (ITA) is recruiting civically-minded individuals to serve on its Community Advisory Committee (CAC). The 20-member advisory group provides input to the ITA on local public transportation issues. Nineteen members serve three-year terms, while the youth position serves a one-year term.

Members are selected to represent a cross-section of the community and geography of the public transportation benefit area. The group includes senior citizens, youth, people with disabilities, college students, business owners, environmentalists, bicyclists, and representatives from social service agencies, neighborhood associations, and the medical community.

The CAC meets the third Monday of each month at 5:30 p.m. Meetings are currently held remotely. CAC applications are available at intercitytransit.com/agency/community-advisory-committee, or by calling 360-705-5857. Completed applications are due by October 7, 2022, and can be mailed to CAC Recruitment, PO Box 659, Olympia, WA 98507, given to a Customer Service Representative at the Olympia Transit Center, located at 205 Franklin Street NE in downtown Olympia, between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., or emailed to ntrail@intercitytransit.com.
