The PCC is a 38 member committee comprised of van and taxi consumers, representatives of agencies serving seniors and individuals with disabilities, transportation providers, and government entity representatives. The PCC meets approximately every 6 weeks. Members of the public are encouraged to attend and participate in PCC meetings.
