Overview
The Calaveras Council of Governments (CCOG) was established in January 1998 through a Joint Powers Agreement to serve as the Regional Transportation Planning Agency (RTPA) for Calaveras County and the Angels Camp area. As the designated RTPA, CCOG is responsible for planning, programming, and administering transportation projects and funding throughout the county.
CCOG was formed to strengthen and streamline the regional transportation planning process. By fostering collaboration between the County and the City, the Council works to ensure that local, regional, and state transportation goals are aligned and responsive to community needs.
Our Council
- The Council is composed of seven members:
- Two Calaveras County Supervisors
- Two Council Members from Angels Camp
- Three public members representing the community at large
This structure ensures balanced representation and meaningful public participation in regional decision-making.
Our Approach
CCOG takes a proactive and forward-thinking approach to planning. We encourage and support both the County and the City in initiating and completing a wide range of transportation and infrastructure planning efforts designed to enhance mobility, safety, and quality of life for residents.
Public Meetings
The Council typically meets on the first Wednesday of each month at 5:30 p.m. at the Calaveras County Government Center. Meeting agendas and minutes are available to the public.
The Calaveras Council of Governments (CCOG) allocates staff time to support the administration and operation of the Calaveras Transit Agency (CTA), helping coordinate transit planning, funding, programs, and services for the community.
