- Follow Up on Regional Transportation Council Action on $40 Million Funding Request for Trinity Metro Action Possible Action Information Minutes: 10 Presenters: Christie Gotti and Michael Morris, NCTCOG Item Summary: Staff will update the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) on the follow-up activities and discussions with Trinity Metro after the RTC’s $40 million funding decision in February 2026. Background: In February 2026, the RTC approved funding for Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) as requested by DART and several cities that were considering withdrawing elections from DART. The RTC approved $75 million in funding for that effort. An additional $65 million for Denton County Transportation Authority and $40 million for Trinity Metro were also approved. The focus of this agenda item is the additional Trinity Metro funding. Staff has been coordinating with Trinity Metro about specific funding sources to accommodate the $40 million, and the RTC will be requested to approve detailed funding for the Trinity Metro project and to direct staff to send a letter to
- Reapproval of the Plano – McKinney Transit Study Action Possible Action Information Minutes: 10 Presenter: Michael Morris, NCTCOG Item Summary: Staff will request the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) reaffirm their support for this study, which was approved by the RTC in March but referred back to the RTC for further consideration at the May 28, 2026, North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) Executive Board meeting with a request to clarify local government support. The Executive Board did not approve the selections of the consultants and requested NCTCOG staff to request the RTC to obtain resolutions supporting the Transit Study from the Cities of Fairview, Allen, and McKinney. Background: The RTC approved moving forward with the McKinney Corridor Passenger Rail Study in March 2026 to explore rail service between Plano and McKinney. This service was included in recommendations from Mobility 2050. NCTCOG requested the Executive Board to hire a consultant to assist with this effort. The NCTCOG Executive Board is requesting resolutions be approved by impacted cities in advance of the study. NCTCOG staff believes requesting resolutions from impacted local governments in advance of preliminary planning studies sets a bad precedent on both roadway and transit planning. The RTC should advance any projects already included in the approved Mobility Plan. Many transportation projects would not have been constructed if a resolution was required simply to begin the planning process. The proposed methodology for this study is shown in Electronic Item 8. This item includes visualization of future demographics, traffic volumes, roadway congestion levels, roadway speeds, and forecasted transit ridership. This video visualization was shown at the Executive Board meeting and is available at: https://youtu.be/OloLIlrrNcI?feature=shared. Ultimate

- Election of Regional Transportation Council Officers Action Possible Action Information Minutes: 10 Presenter: Elizabeth Beck, RTC Nominating Subcommittee Chair Item Summary: Approval of the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) officers for the next 12-month period will be requested. Background: According to the RTC Bylaws and Operating Procedures, RTC officers are elected to serve for a term of one year.
