Citizen's Advisory Committee

Citizens Advisory Committee Members

Kitsap Transit’s Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) was developed in 1983. It is an advisory board that meets monthly to advise the agency’s Board of Commissioners and staff, primarily at the policy level, in most areas of, including but not limited to, the following specific areas:

• The preferred balance between the various types of service the agency offers
• Levels of use of various services
• Quality of service
• Service costs and fare-box return ratio
• Public information and marketing programming

Citizen input is essential to the success of a transportation planning process. Since the general public is both the user and the financier of all transportation systems, it is important for the community to participate in identifying transportation issues and comment on potential alternatives.

The CAC consists of members representing the following constituencies:

• North Kitsap
• South Kitsap
• Bremerton/Central Kitsap
• Senior citizens
• Student
• Commuter
• Regular transit rider
• PSNS

Members may represent one or more of these areas. All members, while understanding that they may have been appointed by virtue of a particular position or interested they hold or represent, must also understand that they represent all the citizens of the service area in their work as advisory committee members. All members must first be nominated by the existing committee members, and then must be approved by a majority of the Board at a regular meeting before beginning full participation.

The committee meets monthly on the second Thursday, from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.  Meetings are open to the public and are held at Kitsap Transit’s Administrative Office, 60 Washington Avenue, Suite 200, Bremerton. Once a quarter the committee meets in a different area of the county to encourage public attendance and input.
