Caltrain Seeks Community Volunteers for Advisory Committee

Caltrain is seeking applicants on its Citizens Advisory Committee for San Mateo and Santa Clara counties. The CAC is comprised of nine volunteer members, who serve in an advisory capacity to the board of directors, providing input on the needs of current and potential rail customers.

Applicants must be residents of San Mateo or Santa Clara counties, and applications are due by 5 p.m., Wednesday, May 14. The CAC meets the third Wednesday of each month at 6 p.m. in San Carlos, just one block from the San Carlos Caltrain Station. All meetings are open to the public.
