The Clackamas County Coordinating Committee (C4) meeting on November 9, 2026, focused on transit planning, service funding, and regional coordination. County staff outlined an update to the Transit Development Plan, expected to begin in January 2027, with a draft anticipated by December 2027. The update will assess existing and future service needs, including accessible transportation for older adults, people with disabilities, and low-income residents, and prioritize service types and investments across providers. Small transit agencies described using Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund (STIF) and regional coordination funds largely to maintain existing service amid rising costs. Under an agreement with TriMet, regional coordination funding is fixed at 12% of STIF funds; that funding will support increasing Sandy Area Metro service to Clackamas Town Center from six to nine runs. Wilsonville SMART also reported plans to order an electric cutaway vehicle and add battery-electric vans. No contract award or bid approval was reported.

TriMet representatives described an annual funding gap of $158 million and said that, without additional revenue, the agency could cut 30% of service by 2030; they cited prior reductions of about $80 million annually and more than 500 positions. A consultant’s economic analysis presented to the committee estimated that transit service reductions could harm regional employment, housing capacity, and economic output. Members also reviewed draft C4 advocacy language for the 2027 state legislative session concerning transportation funding, accountability, and barriers to accessing state funds. Discussion continued, but no final vote on that language was recorded. A motion to approve the October meeting notes was raised, but the transcript does not capture its disposition.
