Bylaws
The Richland County Regional Planning Commission’s bylaws and rules of procedure establish administrative guidelines for the board of county commissioners and representatives from RCRPC member municipalities.
Public Records
To ensure the right of all persons to access the records maintained by RCRPC, a public records request form is linked below. Please direct all public record inquiries to the records manager, who is available during office hours, Monday thru Friday, 8:00a – 12:00p, 12:30p – 4:30p.
Public Participation
The RCRPC promotes public participation in transportation planning to ensure the public’s needs and preferences are met. This participation is essential to keep a mutual understanding and trust between RCRPC and the public it seeks to serve. The public involvement plan provides direction and guidelines for seeking and processing public input.
Title VI/Non Discrimination Program 2016
The non-discrimination program’s purpose is to inform both internal actors and the public of the RCRPC’s compliance with the US Department of Transportation’s Title VI regulations. The RCRPC, along with most federal agencies, have adopted regulations that prohibit recipients of federal funds from using criteria or administration methods that subject individuals to discrimination based on race, color, or national origin. Furthermore, the US Supreme Court has held that such regulations may validly prohibit practices that have a disparate impact on protected groups, even if the actions or practices are not intentionally discriminatory.
