The Committee

The SEA Transportation and Redevelopment Action Committee was formed after the Summit for Environmental Action (SEA), held in February 2008. At SEA, community members voted on actions we could take locally to improve our environment. One of those actions was encapsulated in a slogan - “Great Transit Connecting Great Communities.”

More than a year later, that slogan has become a robust community initiative. Committee members come from a range of backgrounds and have met twice a month since April 2008. The committee has been working to be transparent and inclusive and has welcomed partnerships along the way. Recently, TRAC has been enhanced by a New College of Florida sociology class. The class is working on the project as a way to learn more about transit in our community
