Upcoming Community Meetings
SLOCOG is working with community partners to schedule information sharing meetings regarding a $2.4B county-wide shortfall in transportation funding projected in the recently approved Regional Transportation Plan. With that in mind, SLOCOG is moving forward to consider a potential 2024 local transportation tax measure and we are looking for local feedback on project needs to add to an expenditure plan.
