The Technical Committee membership primarily consists of the technical staffs of the local governmental agencies. The Technical Committee serves as an advisory committee to the KATS Policy Committee. Transportation projects that are considered by the Policy Committee typically begin at the Technical Committee level.
Technical Committee meetings start at 9:00 a.m. and are held at Metro offices, 530 N. Rose Street, Kalamazoo, Michigan. Public notices for each meeting are posted at Kalamazoo County cities, villages, and townships.
Agendas are available one week prior to a meeting.
Due to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, Technical Committee meetings are temporarily being held virtually. Information on how to join these meetings can be found on the meeting materials.
