Metropolitan Planning Organization Seeking Citizen Input
Manatee County Government is now accepting applications from residents interested in serving on the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) representing Manatee County.
“The Sarasota/Manatee Metropolitan MPO helps develop the plans, policies, and priorities that guide regional decision-making on important transportation issues facing our growing community," said Sarasota/Manatee MPO Board member and At-Large Manatee County Commissioner Jason Bearden. "Committed and concerned residents can craft strategies that help ensure access to all."
Citizens Advisory Committee meetings are held at 5 p.m. on the second Monday of months in which an MPO meeting is scheduled (January, March, May, September, and November in 2025). The CAC meets in the main conference room at the Sarasota Manatee Metropolitan Planning Organization Office at 8100 15th Street E., Sarasota, FL 34243.
Interested residents must apply no later than August 17, 2025. Applications are available online here.
