A key component of Valley Metro’s Construction Outreach Program for the Tempe Streetcar is the formation of a citizen board to serve as the voices for the community during streetcar construction. The board is known as the Community Advisory Board (CAB) and is comprised of residents, property owners and business representatives from the community adjacent to the streetcar route.
The role of CAB members is to review and evaluate the performance of Valley Metro’s contractor, in relation to minimizing impacts to the community. CAB members will make a recommendation to Valley Metro whether to award a quarterly incentive to the contractor for going ‘above and beyond’ Valley Metro’s contract requirements.
The Tempe Streetcar CAB generally meets the second Monday of the month at 2:00pm. Please consult Valley Metro’s events calendar to confirm meeting date, time and location.
