MTC Seeks Applicants for New Advisory Committee 

The Metropolitan Transit Commission (MTC) is seeking applicants for its new committee, the Public Transit Advisory Committee (PTAC). PTAC replaces the Citizens Transit Advisory Group (CTAG) and the Transit Services Advisory Committee (TSAC).  

PTAC will be established effective Jan. 1, 2025, through an interlocal agreement between the City of Charlotte, Mecklenburg County and the six towns.  

In addition to being responsible for providing other advisory functions as directed by MTC, PTAC is responsible for: 

  • Reviewing the CATS CEO’s proposed operating programs and five-year capital programs. 
  • Reviewing transit policies. 
  • Serving as an initial forum for suggestions and complaints concerning fares, routes and schedules. 
  • Making recommendations to the MTC regarding these matters. 

The committee will consist of 15 members and will meet on the second Wednesday of every month at 4 p.m. in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Government Center. The required time commitment is approximately 2-4 hours per month.
