Title
Consider a resolution supporting the activities of Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) regarding a multimodal regional transportation system.
Body
The Transit Working Group (TWC), a sub-committee of the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO), was formed for the purpose of and has been working on, defining uniform regional transportation options for relieving congestion. For more than a year, the TWC has been meeting regularly and is comprised of various community leaders and elected officials. Working alongside other agencies and Chambers of Commerce in the region, Capital Metro has asked that we each pass a resolution for the purpose of bringing substance to the ongoing efforts. This resolution has been carefully drafted to satisfy Cap Metro's request, while at the same time, recognizing Round Rock's current position on various transportation needs and options.
Passage of this resolution will support the work previously done by the TWC, satisfy Cap Metro's request, and support future activity relative to this very important regional challenge.
