The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) believes that public participation is a critical and necessary part of the transportation planning process. The public's involvement helps MAG make transportation decisions that meet the needs of all people, and to plan transportation facilities that fit harmoniously into communities.
MAG believes that public participation is key to the planning process. We need the community’s help to plan projects that provide benefits to the region and meet the wide-ranging needs of residents. We encourage you to share your thoughts, ideas and concerns with us through either the Public Comment Form or by completing the MAG Community Feedback Survey.
If you wish to provide comments directly to policy makers, you are encouraged to attend the MAG committee meeting(s) of interest and make your comments in person. You can find MAG meeting dates and times listed on our home page. You also may submit comments through our online form. Learn how to provide comments at MAG.
We are committed to listening and to reporting back how public input has shaped our decisions. The annual report is intended to assist in meeting those goals and to ensure policy makers have access to public feedback.
MAG's biennial awards program that recognizes individuals and partnerships that have demonstrated a commitment to regionalism through their cooperative efforts.
In order to develop transportation plans that are responsive to the needs and priorities of a diverse population, it is essential to have a process in place that effectively engages the public, fully integrates their feedback, analyzes the benefits and burdens of various alternatives, and recommends the most equitable solutions. MAG maintains a robust program to ensure all people have a meaningful role in the planning process.

In an effort to make information delivery faster, MAG has implemented an e-mail notification system that will make it easier to receive documents such as agendas, minutes and reports. Through a free subscription service called GovDelivery, MAG member agencies and the public will have better access to information that is posted on the MAG Web site.
The subscription service monitors specific Web pages for changes, and when a change is detected, the service sends an e-mail to subscribers notifying them of the change. Users can choose to subscribe to as many of the pages as they wish. There are about 130 monitored pages on the MAG Web site.
As a subscriber, you can choose not only what information you receive, you can also choose how often you receive it—immediately, daily, or weekly.
To subscribe, simply click on the link on the page that says “Sign up to receive email updates.” Users can also click on a Quick Subscribe link on various pages to see a full list and subscribe to any of the MAG pages. To subscribe, only a few pieces of information will be required, such as e-mail address, delivery preferences and organization.
Look for the red envelope icon on pages of interest.
