PROFILE

The MPO Board is represented by five elected officials and one non-elected official. The elected officials include: three County Commissioners, a City Council member, and an Airport Authority Commissioner. The Florida Department of Transportation Secretary, District One is the non-elected official (non-voting) on the Board. The MPO Board's policies are implemented by the MPO staff who conducts citizens participation events and analyses technical transportation issues. 

The Charlotte County-Punta Gorda MPO was established by the Governor in 1992. As a result of the 1990 census, The Punta Gorda/Port Charlotte urbanized area was determined to exceed 50,000 in population, triggering the requirement for an MPO. Activities of the MPO are funded from state and federal sources along with a small local match.

         Charlotte County-Punta Gorda MPO is one of 26 MPOs in Florida and one of about 340 in the nation.

         MPOs are required by federal and state law.
