The Ventura County Transportation Commission wants YOUR feedback as it prepares its Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP) for Ventura County. The CTP is a long-range planning document that will guide the future of transportation in the County over the next 30 years and help determine how we will invest in transportation-related infrastructure.

What do you think we should plan for? What infrastructure does your business need? What do your employees and neighbors need? How much focus should we have on driving? Walking? Trucking? Biking? Public Transit?

The five-minute survey includes an interactive map where you can provide specific feedback at large scales ("traffic on the freeway is terrible") and at a hyper-local scale ("this specific sidewalk on this block is too narrow and needs some street trees").

The State of California is now taking new applications for its COVID-19 Relief Grants through September 30.

The state grants are generous - between $5,000 and $25,000 depending on your annual revenues - but there is unfortunately not enough funding available to provide these grants to every business that applies. However, nearly 150 Moorpark businesses and non-profit organizations have already received nearly $2,000,000 in state grants through this program.

If you previously applied for, but did not receive, a state COVID-19 Relief Grant, you are automatically moved forward into the subsequent selection process. You don't need to do anything at this time. However, if you did not previously apply, you can now apply online.

If you aren't sure if you previously applied, or if you have any questions, please call (888) 612-4370. Call center hours are Monday-Friday, 7A-7P.
