Van Ness Business Advisory Committee

The Van Ness Business Advisory Committee (BAC) is made up of representatives from a diverse cross-section of Van Ness Project Corridor businesses. The Van Ness BAC meets monthly to provide recommendations and advice on ways the City can support businesses during construction while providing a forum for businesses to resolve for issues related to construction. This committee also oversees development of marketing support for Van Ness corridor businesses. 

The Van Ness Business Advisory Committee:

• Provides the Van Ness Corridor Transit Improvement Project team feedback and guide decisions related to the construction and implementation of the Van Ness Corridor Transit Improvement Project.
• Hears project presentations on the approach, content and data at appropriate times and responds with community guidance and input. 
• Makes the project team aware of community priorities and concerns.
• Acts as a channel to disseminate project information to the community and for the project team to receive feedback from the community.

The Van Ness Business Advisory Committee operates independently from the Van Ness Bus Rapid Transit Community Advisory Committee, focusing on the impact the project has on local businesses. 

Agendas are posted one week prior the scheduled meeting. Meetings are open to the public.
