The Citizens' Advisory Committee, or CAC, is an MPO committee comprised of representatives and members of the public who are interested in participating in the transportation planning process. The members of the CAC represent a broad cross section of Broward's population, and include members from various cities, towns, and community organizations. These members provide the MPO with valuable insight into local communities and help to form the urban landscape by acting as a voice for public opinion relating to general transportation issues. The committee reviews and provides recommendations to the MPO Board on transportation plans and programs, taking into consideration the impacts these plans and programs have on their local communities.
The Citizens' Advisory Committee (CAC) meets on the fourth Wednesday of every month in the MPO Board Room, located in the Trade Centre South Building at 100 West Cypress Creek Road, Suite 850, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33309-2112 at 6:00 p.m. These meetings are open to the public and participation is encouraged.
