Management and Oversight of the Planning Process

The planning process for the Golden Crescent Region reflects a strong leadership role by the Lead Agency in close counsel with members of the Regional Coordination Committee (RCC). The key components of the management structure are as follows:

Regional Coordination Committee (RCC) - The RCC provides direction and oversight throughout the planning process. The RCC includes representatives of agencies and organizations that are responsible for providing public transportation services, providing health and human services, or interested in the coordination of public transportation and client transportation services in the Golden Crescent Region. The RCC’s mission is to lay out the strategy to develop a coordinated public transportation plan for the Golden Crescent Region; to identify the resources required to develop the plan; and to provide policy guidance to the Lead Agency that will lead the planning effort.

Lead Agency – The Golden Crescent Regional Planning Commission (GCRPC) will serve as the Lead Agency and will provide leadership, management, and administrative support for the overall process. The responsibilities of the Lead Agency include:
• Serve as the point of contact to the Texas Transportation Commission and the Commission-appointed Study Group.
• Serve as the contracting agency for the technical planning consultant.
• Involve stakeholders and community leaders in an aggressive outreach and public involvement program.
• Serve as the party responsible for calling and arranging all RCC meetings.
• Provide support to the RCC through the work of the consultant to ensure that all work is accomplished on schedule, reviews are conducted in accordance with the work plan, the RCC is appropriately involved and informed, and that the plan considers the input received through the outreach process.
