YMPO is always trying to ensure that the public has a say in the
transportation planning process. To participate is to express one's
self at the proper time and in the proper forum. Public participation
means participation in planning by people (public) outside the Yuma
Metropolitan Planning Organization (YMPO) and its member entities,
by planning and engineering professionals and by those who are not
professional planners or government officials. It is a process of
taking part in the transportation planning and decision-making that
affect the community.
