The Sacramento Area Council of Governments is gathering proposals from community-based groups to provide outreach and engagement services to bolster awareness of its metropolitan transportation plan/sustainable communications strategy.
SACOG is the public agency of the 28 city and county governments in Sacramento, El Dorado, Place, Sutter, Yolo and Yuba counties.
It regularly updates the long-range regional plan to reflect current trends in demographics, housing and land use patterns.
The 2024 blueprint will outline recommendations for how to grow and invest as a region over the next 20 to 30 years.
It will connect housing to jobs, education, goods and services, and recreational opportunities while protecting and enhancing our region’s ecology, open space, and agricultural lands,” according to the RFP.
SACOG intends to use several awareness building tactics throughout the 2024 blueprint development process to increase engagement among low-income communities, communities of color, partner agencies, stakeholders that represent a broad variety of interests throughout the region, and all other interested community members.
Staff will use best practices to gain input from partners and will leverage relationships with community-based organizations to build upon these engagement activities to ensure that all interested parties can be meaningfully involved in shaping this regional plan.
SACOG will work with local organizations to connect with Black, Indigenous, Asian, Pacific Islander, Hispanic/Latino, and communities of color, along with low-income rural, urban, and other underrepresented communities to help shape the 2024 blueprint.
Responses to the RFP are due Jan. 20. They go to SACOG’s electronic portal.
