Work Program
The SBCCOG provides a forum for discussing issues of importance in the South Bay as well as facilitating communication on behalf of the South Bay subregion with other governing bodies, such as the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro) and the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD).
Our objective is to add value to the work of local governments in the South Bay. Our work program includes keeping informed of issues of mutual interest and importance. By fostering cooperative approaches to South Bay concerns, we can maximize the limited funding opportunities that are available to our area.
The SBCCOG's work program priority issues are:
SBCCOG works with our member cities to respond to funding opportunities from the LA Metro, such as the Call for Projects. Since multi-jurisdictional projects have a higher priority for funding, SBCCOG sponsors these projects on behalf of our cities.
In partnership with Southern California Edison, The Gas Company, West Basin Municipal Water District, Torrance Water Department and the Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County, the SBCCOG sponsors the South Bay Environmental Services Center (SBESC) which provides information and training classes on resource use efficiency and conservation. SBESC also works with our cities to provide them with energy and water use audits as well as energy and water saving procurement opportunities which will allow them to save energy and money. The Center can be reached at (310) 371-7222 and their website is www.sbesc.com.
SBCCOG, working in partnership with other governmental agencies and the South Bay business community, creates and fosters a competitive, prosperous vision of our subregion as a place of quality to live and work.
