News Release from Lane Co. Government

Posted on FlashAlert: April 18th, 2023 7:30 AM

Lane County’s Transportation Advisory Committee (TrAC) has two vacant seats to fill.

“Serving on our Transportation Advisory Committee is a great way to get involved in the community and help make a lasting difference,” said Lane County Transportation Planning Supervisor Sasha Vartanian. “We all use our transportation system – although in different ways – and having a group of diverse voices at the table is how we work to make improvements that benefit everyone.”

The seats must be filled by at least one person from District 4 (North Eugene) and the remaining seat can be filled by a person from anywhere in Lane County. “Rural representation is so important,” said Vartanian. “Most of the decisions we make at Lane County directly affect residents living in rural communities and we need their voices at the table.”

The TrAC acts as a forum for public input into the County’s transportation system and serves as a liaison group in representing transportation concerns of the community to the Board of County Commissioners.

The Committee meets in the evening of every fourth Wednesday of every other month. There are a total of seven members – one from each commissioner’s district and two at-large members.

To qualify, for the District 4 (North Eugene) position must live or own property within District 4. Applicants for the at-large position must live or own property within Lane County.

Applications are due by 5:00 p.m. on April 28, 2023. Applications are available at www.LaneCountyOR.gov/TrAC.
