DESCRIPTION:Regional Advisory Council\n\nThe Regional Advisory Council (RAC) is a standing committee of the Valley Regional Transit Board. It was developed to provide a forum for transportation and human service staff to share information and collaborate on mobility issues. Members of the Council provide advice to VRT on its transportation programs and disseminate mobility information to their stakeholders. \nThe RAC is scheduled to meet bi-monthly with calendars set at the beginning of each year. The meetings are typically held at 9 a.m. in the first-floor Board Room at the VRT administrative offices\, 700 NE 2nd Street in Meridian. RAC meetings may be hosted at different locations depending on agenda needs. Posted agendas will contain a call-in link for remote participation. \nOur Vision\nWe envision an accessible regional transportation system that is built upon meaningful stakeholder input and feedback. \nOur Mission\nThe Regional Advisory Council’s mission is to use a customer-centered focus to ensure that VRT’s policies\, services\, and outreach meet the mobility needs of the community. \nRegional Advisory Council Membership\n\nWalter Steed (chair)\nMary Beth Nutting (vice-chair)\nSusan Bradley (Idaho Commission on Aging)\nSamantha Kenney (Southwest District Health)\nTerri Lindenberg (Treasure Valley Transit)\nSusan Manika (JANNUS)\nAndrew Mills\nDeeann Solis (Idaho Commission for the Blind & Visually Impaired)\nTheresa Vawter\nDavid White (Idaho Division of Vocational Rehabilitation)\nMegan Zusne\n\nIf you need to contact a Regional Advisory Council member\, please call 208-258-2706. \nRAC Handbook
