The TSAC advises the VTA Board of Directors on the newly established ‘prohibition authority’ program established by AB1735.

- AFSCME Representative**
- Community-based organization (CBO) Representative
- “At-large” or “undesignated” *= category stipulated by AB1735
**= represents 2 of the five minimum members required by statute
The selection process seeks a balance of relevant background, experience, and targeted stakeholder constituencies.
Selected and appointed members serve a two (2) year term and are limited to two (2) consecutive terms. The TSAC generally meets once a month, on the Wednesday following the first Thursday. Meetings normally last two (2) hours or less.
Eligibility: To be considered for the TSAC, applicants must be residents of Santa Clara County during their term.
