The Metropolitan Planning Organization of Johnson County ( MPOJC) is forming a committee to discuss and make
recommendations on future transit needs in the Iowa City Urbanized Area. The committee's two main goals are to
determine where we want to be in terms of transit service in the next 20 years and what steps should be taken to get
there. Each MPO JC Board voting entity is being asked to appoint one person to the committee. We suggest that the
appointee have some knowledge or interest in transit and be available for monthly meetings. The appointee does not
need to be an elected official. The attached memorandum provides further information regarding the transit needs
committee. An application is also attached that is being used by MPOJC to fill two at -large positions on the
committee. Feel free to modify the application for use in your selection process.
Please submit your appointments to myself or John Yapp by September 2, 2011. 1 can be reached at 356 -5235 or by

Re: Seeking applicants for Future Transit Needs Committee
The Metropolitan Planning Organization of Johnson County, Iowa is forming a multi -
jurisdictional committee to discuss and make recommendations on future transit needs in the
Iowa City Urbanized Area and Johnson County. The committee has two main charges:
1. Where do we want to be in terms of transit service in the next 20 years?
2. What steps should be taken to get there?
Each MPO Board voting entity is being asked to appoint one person to the committee, plus the
MPO Urbanized Area Policy Board will be appointing two at -large positions. For committee
appointments, we suggest that:
A. The appointee has some knowledge, interest, and /or background in transit or
transportation operations and public financing.
B. The appointee be available for periodic (monthly) meetings.
C. The appointee need not be an elected official but should be someone with willingness to
consider public transit financing issues, options, and service levels.
D. Staff may be, but do not need to be, appointed. If public transit operations staff are not
appointed, we will invite them to the meetings for their expertise.
The attached application form is for the two applicants for the at -large position. Applications will
be forwarded to the MPO Urbanized Area Policy Board at their August 17 meeting for
consideration. Please submit the application form to John Yapp by email at john- yapp @iowa-
