Vision Zero Community Advisory Committee - Student Non-Voting Member Application |
The Phoenix Street Transportation Department is recruiting students from local high schools, colleges and universities to be non-voting members of its Vision Zero Community Advisory Committee. The committee meets every two months to help guide the department’s Vision Zero Road Safety Action Plan. The goal of the plan, which was approved by City Council in September 2022, is to reduce the number of fatal traffic collisions in Phoenix to zero by 2050.
Student members will serve a one-year term, and must be at least 17 years old, able to attend regularly-scheduled meetings and have an interest in providing thoughtful input about road safety.
In addition to student members, the committee consists of 11 voting members appointed by Mayor Kate Gallego and the City Council. The committee’s work will be better informed by including the perspective of younger drivers or roadway users who may also bike or take public transit to get to their school campuses, jobs and other activities.
The application deadline is June 30, 2024. Student members will be selected in July 2024 and begin their term at the committee's August 15, 2024 meeting. The original deadline was May 31, but was extended. Apply today!
