The City Club is about to study transportation governance. Here is the charge for the study (PDF, 58K) (full disclosure – I was a member of the committee that drafted the charge).

City Club is poised to launch two new comprehensive studies and is looking for volunteers to serve on research committees.

The first of these studies will examine if the governance structure for transportation in the Portland metropolitan area is adequate for tackling the challenges of population growth, aging infrastructure and climate change. The topic of the second study will likely be announced in the coming months.

For more information or to request a volunteer application, contact City Club’s research and policy director, Tony Iaccarino, at tony@pdxcityclub.org or 503-228-7231 x103. Applications are due January 23.
