Your opinion matters. Help shape your community with transportation options that offer numerous benefits.

With help from the Community Electric Transportation Council, local agencies, and community-based organizations throughout Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, and Solano Counties, our Charged By Public Power program is working with our partners to determine transportation needs and design inclusive community outreach plans in these priority communities:

Engage in discussion and collaborate with other community members on clean transportation solutions. The focus groups will take place December 2024 to January 2025 throughtout Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, and Solano Counties.
The Community Electric Transportation Council is made up of representatives from local governments, transit authorities, and community-based partners. In partnership with MCE, the CETC is responsible for supporting the development of community engagement strategies, outreach, and recruitment for the transportation survey and focus groups that will guide clean transportation options in your community.

MCE staff used a combination approach to evaluate disadvantaged priority communities. To avoid depending too much on any one dataset, MCE used four different datasets that apply different criteria for assessing “disadvantaged.” These datasets are:
1. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Justice40 Energy Justice tool
2. The White House’s Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST)
3. California’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment’s (OEHHA) CalEnviroScreen (CES)
4. The California Air Resource Board’s Priority Population Investments
