Consolidated Grants Call for Projects Presentation
In its capacity as the state-designated Regional Transportation Planning Agency (RTPA), the RTC is responsible for selecting projects to receive certain federal and state funds employing a competitive and performance-based selection process reflecting Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) priorities. Approved projects are programmed in the RTC's Regional Transportation Improvement Program. To achieve this, the RTC conducts a consolidated grants process and the call for projects is expected to be issued on June 30, 2025. Applications will be due on September 15, 2025. The RTC approved criteria that will be used to evaluate projects and guide project sponsors, and which include Access for All, Safety and Health, System Preservation/Infrastructure, System Performance, Climate Change and Resiliency, and Equity.
Staff expects between $10-17 million to be made available this funding cycle from the region's formula share of state and federal funds. Funding sources will include the 2026 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP), the 2024 Local Partnership Program (LPP-f), and the Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG)/Regional Surface Transportation Program Exchange (RSTPX)

From the publisher's feed
Attending these meetings in person is very time consuming. They are long and there is often quite a bit of administrative business done. Not many people have the time to do it. And, even if you do,…
But the meetings are important. They are the best way to keep track of what the agencies are up to. These podcasts make access to that content very simple and efficient.
I edit the podcasts to break the meetings into short, topical episodes. You can listen to the episodes that cover topics that matter to you. The cool thing about doing that with a podcast is that you can listen whenever and wherever you can.
The podcasts are made from community tv.org 's video feed of the meetings. Thanks go to them for providing those. You can see the full videos on their website.
I've started adding some episodes that cover the supporting documents for the meetings. Those can be very useful. I am using text to audio conversions to convert them to an audio format.
I'm not editing the content of the podcasts. It is extracted directly from the video of the meetings. I am editing out the agency's administrative business, and I am not including public comments. Both of those are available in the original video.
There are some presentations that depend on a Power point presentation or slides. I make videos of those and post them on YouTube.
