會員資格和承諾

The EAC Charter lays out the guiding vision for the Council as one mechanism for ensuring equity is embedded into the work of Link21. It provides a foundation for the Council and represents a high-level overview of the authority, scope, and roles necessary for its success. The EAC consists of up to 20 members representing diverse geographies and demographics and serving as an advisory body to the Link21 Program. Members bring their lived experience or professional familiarity in technical and/or policy areas such as passenger rail transportation and land use, housing, environmental, environmental justice, transit justice, and economic development.

EAC membership reflects the diversity of the Megaregion, including low-income communities and communities of color that have been most impacted by transportation inequities, youth, and other communities that have historically been marginalized.

Committee members can serve up to a two-year term and are compensated for their service on the EAC in accordance with the Link21 Honorarium Pilot Guidelines. To learn more about the general function and administration of the EAC including the roles and responsibilities of the members, please view the EAC Bylaws.

EAC Member Roster

After a rigorous selection process, Link21 is proud to announce that they have appointed 18 community members to the inaugural EAC. The 18 members represent the diversity of the 21 county Megaregion and will be compensated for contributing their time, perspective, and expertise to the EAC. Members will serve two-year terms.
