The Public Participation Plan serves as a guide for residents in the Baltimore region to navigate the regional transportation planning process. It also outlines the policies and procedures that the BRTB and staff follow while informing and engaging the public. Lastly, the Public Participation Plan includes a toolkit of public engagement practices and an evaluation process.     The mission of the BRTB’s Public Participation Plan is to provide an open process that offers reasonable access to information, timely public notice, full public access to key decisions, and support for early and continued involvement of a diverse group of stakeholders.   The draft 2022 Public Participation Plan updates the existing PPP, adopted in 2018. The proposed updates were made after a review of other PPPs, consultant recommendations, staff debriefs, and the results of a recent public participation survey.    Highlights Of Changes    Added virtual or hybrid meetings options for BRTB committee meetings and public meetings or events - the 2022 Public Participation Survey showed strong support for virtual options and the ongoing pandemic has shown the need for virtual options.  Added new ways to comment such as voicemail, text, and through our PublicInput engagement hub (p 12) Clarified how to submit comments via social media (p 13) Updated accessibility policy to use plain and inclusive language (p 16)  Added information about (Presidential) Executive Order 13985 – Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government (p 25) Reorganized several sections to streamline information and make it easier to understand policies  Download the 2022 PPP (pdf)   The BRTB would like to thank the public for their feedback on the draft 2022 Public Participation Plan (PPP).  The BRTB and BMC staff have reviewed all public comments received during our 45-day comment period.

What is the Baltimore Region Transit Governance & Funding Study? The Maryland Department of Transportation Maryland Transit Administration (MDOT MTA) is one of the few state run transit systems in the country, and like most others, is facing funding challenges. The Baltimore Region Transit Governance & Funding Study will develop potential alternatives for the structure, organization, and funding of public transit in the Baltimore region including scenarios to enhance and balance local jurisdiction engagement and potential contributions to achieve regional and local public transit performance goals. These scenarios will be developed and considered in the context of public transit funding structures in the State of Maryland. The study is being developed through a collaborative process between the Baltimore Regional Transportation Board (BRTB) members and regional stakeholders, and is supported by research and analysis. The goal is to develop four (4) potential governance options that are based on an understanding of transit’s historical development in the region, are realistic about constraints, and creative in providing opportunities for change.   Why Was This Project Initiated and How Is It Funded? Responding to State legislative interest and at the request of the Central Maryland Regional Transit Plan Commission and the MDOT MTA, the BRTB has initiated and funded it with planning funds identified in the Fiscal Year 2021 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP).    Want to know more?  Join us for our second virtual public forum on Tuesday, June 29 from 6 to 7 p.m. to learn about potential alternatives to govern and fund transit in the Baltimore region. Based on research and input from the BRTB, BMC, and other key stakeholders, project team members will present findings from the six month study. These include models for state and local involvement in transit decision making as well as options for expanded funding. The forum is designed so we can hear your thoughts on how these alternatives might benefit transit riders and how they might be implemented in the future.
