Regional Planning Commission Members Committees The Lima-Allen County Regional Planning Commission is a voluntary association of delegates representing local political subdivisions. The Commission serves as a forum for discussion about issues which may affect several communities as well as regional issues which cross over political boundaries into adjacent communities. A plethora of committees meet regularly to discuss relevant issues to the community. The Commission serves in an advisory capacity to community decision makers who have come to rely on data, analyses, and planning recommendations provided by the Commission. The committee structure reflects the scope of the Planning Commission’s responsibilities and commitment to the local community as well as the region. The transportation responsibilities of the Commission are predicated on a federally predetermined committee structure which includes the Transportation Coordinating Committee (TCC), the policy committee, and a Transportation Advisory Committee (TAC), a technical advisory committee. Together these two committees review and provide technical assistance and make recommendations on transportation and transit related projects and programs planned for the region.
