ABOUT THE TAC
The TAC provides the technical input to OahuMPO's planning process. The TAC acts as the technical liaison between the Policy Committee and the OahuMPO Executive Director, provides advice to the Policy Committee and the OahuMPO Executive Director on technical matters, and insures the technical competence of the planning process.
The TAC membership consists of two staff representatives from each of the City and the State planning and transportation departments. The staff representatives from the State Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism include one staff member from the Office of Planning (OP). In addition, one staff representative each from the Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration, and Federal Aviation Administration; the Managing Director of the Hawaii Transportation Association; and a faculty member of the University of Hawaii (with background in transportation or city planning) attend TAC meetings as non-voting members.
