PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE The San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) will hold a Public Hearing on August 5, 2026, to receive public testimony, review and adopt the federally required 2027 Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP), including the 2027 Transit Program of Projects (POP). The 2027 FTIP is the region's transportation programming document that contains a comprehensive listing of surface transportation projects that receive federal funds, are subject to a federally required action, or are regionally significant. Highway and local road projects, public transit, and bicycle and pedestrian projects are included in the FTIP based on programmed and committed federal, state, and local funding over the next four years. The FTIP must be financially constrained by fiscal year (FFY26/27~FFY29/30), and updated every two years to comply with the requirements of the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), the most recent Federal surface transportation act. The FTIP is being developed to be consistent with SLOCOG's 2023 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), and following the first public meeting on June 3rd, the Draft 2027 FTIP has been circulated starting on June 12th for public review period of 30 days. The programming document is available at www.slocog.org and a hard copy in the SLOCOG office. The San Luis Obispo Regional Transit Authority (RTA), the City of San Luis Obispo Transit agency and the South County Transit (SCT) agency rely upon SLOCOG, the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) to meet the public participation requirements for the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Program of Projects. Additionally, the Air Quality Conformity Analysis and Determination finding show that the 2027 FTIP and the SLOCOG 2023 Regional Transportation Plan meet the emissions conformity tests for federal 8-hour ozone standard based on the Transportation Conformity requirements found in the Federal Clean Air Act, Section 176(c) (42 U.S.C. 7506(c)), and Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 93, Subpart A for the San Luis Obispo County ozone non-attainment area.
