Georgia Coordinating Committee for Rural and Human Services Transportation
Mandated by the Georgia General Assembly in 2010 through HB277, the GDC is tasked with creating a Coordinating Committee for Rural and Human Services Transportation. That committee in turn is mandated to identify and report on methods to increase current coordination among rural and human services transportation agencies and provide the State legislature with fact-based, consensus-developed policy recommendations that increase the cost-effectiveness of RHST delivery in Georgia while maintaining or improving existing levels of service.
The Georgia Coordinating Committee for Rural and Human Services Transportation:
Shall examine the manner in which transportation services are provided by the participating agencies represented on the committee.
No later than September 1 of each year, the Governor’s Development Council shall submit a final report to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget for review and consideration. Each report shall focus on existing conditions in coordination of rural and human services transportation within the state and shall make specific recommendations for means to improve such current practices.
