Valley Transit is seeking community members to serve on the new Public Transit Advisory Group (P‑TAG), a volunteer advisory body that provides input to the Valley Transit Board of Directors on policies, service delivery, and universal mobility within the service area. P‑TAG members bring diverse rider and community perspectives, helping strengthen transparency, public trust, and equitable, accessible transit for everyone. Members volunteer their time in a non‑binding advisory role and may receive reimbursement for authorized travel in accordance with Valley Transit policies.

P‑TAG membership is open to people who live or work within the Valley Transit Public Transportation Benefit Area or who regularly use Valley Transit services, with an emphasis on diverse backgrounds and experiences; see the Bylaws below for example membership categories. Members are expected to attend scheduled meetings, review materials in advance, engage in respectful, consensus‑oriented discussions, and serve as liaisons by sharing Valley Transit information within their networks. Appointments are made by the Valley Transit Board of Directors through an open application process, with members generally serving two‑year terms and all nominees completing a background check and confirming they have no actual or perceived conflicts of interest related to Valley Transit decisions.

The first review of initial applications will take place on February 13, with the intent to recommend nominees to the Board of Directors at the February Board meeting. Applications can be submitted via email to info@valleytransit.com or in-person at 1401 West Rose Street, Walla Walla, 99324.
