Kings
County Association of Governments (KCAG) was formally created in 1967
to provide a cooperative body for the resolution of issues that go beyond
established jurisdictional boundaries. KCAG is a voluntary association
of local governments, designated by the state of California. The major
roles of KCAG are:
-
To
exchange planning information between the member agencies as related to planned
area-wide development with emphasis on transportation;
-
the
identification and study of problems in areas of urban growth affecting various
agencies;
-
to
consider questions of mutual concern to the County, Cities and other agencies
and make recommendations on an advisory basis;
-
to
provide for citizen involvement in the planning process and provide technical
services to the member agencies;
-
to
operate as the regional transportation planning agency.
In
each of these areas, KCAG acts as a consensus builder to develop an acceptable
approach on how to solve problems that are regional in nature.
