Lafayette Metropolitan Planning Organization

The structure of the Lafayette Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) was developed to ensure a comprehensive evaluation of region-wide transportation projects and programs and solicit public comment on the proposed projects and programs. The structure of the MPO includes the following committees:

• Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC)
• Transportation Technical Committee (TTC)
• Transportation Policy Committee (TPC)
• Planning Commission (PC)
• MPO Governing Board

In general, a project will be introduced to the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) for comments and review. After being approved by the CAC, the project then proceeds to the Transportation Technical Committee (TTC) for comments and review. After approval by the TTC, the project is then introduced to the Transportation Policy Committee (TPC). Once a project is introduced to the TPC, a Public Hearing is advertised and a 15 day public comment period begins. The TPC can then adopt a resolution approving the process once the public comment period is complete and the public hearing is held at the TPC meeting.

Public comment can be made at any one of the following 11 locations during public comment.
