The consultation period for the FY2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) has begun! Grand Valley Metropolitan Council (GVMC) is seeking input on the Fiscal Year 2020-2023 TIP from Federal, State, Tribal, and local agencies responsible for land use management, natural resources, environmental protection, conservation and historic preservation in order to foster cooperation and promote communication with these organizations.

GVMC is asking that consulted organizations look over the proposed project lists and the corresponding map and compare them with any projects or planned projects that their organization may be undertaking. Then, we ask that you provide your analysis of the information provided, including your opinion of how well the information was presented and the mitigation strategies you would offer to limit the impact of proposed transportation projects on the environment, your organization’s plans, or people that you serve.

Comments or concerns regarding these projects should be submitted to Andrea Faber by Friday, March 8, 2019.

GVMC staff is also available to meet with you to compare your future plans with our draft project lists or to address your concerns on Wednesday, February 13, from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm at our office (678 Front Ave. NW, Suite 200, Grand Rapids, 49504). If you are unable to attend this meeting but would still like to meet with GVMC staff in person, please contact Andrea Faber at 616.776.7603 to schedule an appointment.

For more information, including viewing the proposed project lists and the map, and for information on how to provide your input, please visit our TIP page.
