10:30 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.
Room: L005/L009
Every 10 years, the Census Bureau makes new determinations and draws new lines around what's urban and what's rural. While the big news may be learning what brand-new urban areas are on the list, and what areas will lose their Section 5307 eligibility, Census' urban area determinations will affect numerous transit providers' eligibility for federal transit funds, and will affect how formula-based transit funds are apportioned to states and urbanized areas. FTA has been working hard to prepare its grantees for the range of upcoming impacts to their communities and their budgets. Here's your chance to become better informed and prepared for your urban or rural transit agency's future over the next decade.
