Issue
ISSUE
This report is a quarterly update on the activities of the Community Advisory Council (CAC) for January 2026 through March 2026.
Background
BACKGROUND
Per state statute (AB152), when the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission (LACTC) and Southern California Rapid Transit District (SCRTD) merged to become Metro, a requirement was embedded in the legislation to establish a Citizens' Advisory Committee. In 2022, the CAC rebranded as the Community Advisory Council to better reflect its values and convey a more inclusive tone.
Per the CAC's Bylaws, the council consults, obtains, and collects public input on matters of interest and concern to the community, as well as those assigned by the Board of Directors or Metro staff. The CAC communicates advisory input, feedback, and/or recommendations concerning key issues to Metro.
The CAC is currently comprised of 23 voting members, directly appointed by the Metro Board of Directors. The CAC General Assembly typically meets monthly on the Wednesday evening before the Metro Board of Directors meeting. The CAC's elected officers usually meet as an Executive Committee on the first Thursday of each month.
