CC Rider Seeks New Members for Transit Advisory Committee
ST. HELENS, Ore. July 3, 2025 — Columbia County Rider (CC Rider) is looking for two new members to serve on its Transit Advisory Committee (TAC), a group that helps guide public transit service in our communities.
TAC members provide valuable input on proposed transportation projects, funding priorities, and the unique needs of local riders—including veterans, seniors, commuters, students, and people with disabilities. This is a great opportunity to make a real impact by helping shape accessible, efficient, and inclusive transportation across Columbia County.
To qualify, applicants must live or work in Columbia County and have a general knowledge of public transportation needs in the area. The committee reflects the diversity of our region, with members representing seniors, people with disabilities, low-income individuals, employers, and service providers. The application is available online at: https://columbiacounty.info/CCRboard.
Can’t join the committee but still want to stay informed? Advisory Committee meetings are open to the public. Anyone interested is welcome to attend—either in person or virtually.
Meeting Information:
The committee meets monthly, on the third Tuesday, at the Columbia County Transit Center in St. Helens. You may also join virtually via Microsoft Teams: https://tinyurl.com/5fyu95zh.
