Each year the Coordinated Plan is amended to publish changes to goals and objectives and to allocate Federal transit funding to specific projects. In August and October public notices were published asking for proposals to be submitted that best fulfill the goals and objectives in the coordinated plan. This public notice is asks for public comments on the proposed projects.
What is the 2013 Amendment?
