Action Sandy Hill also participates from time to time in broader citizens initiatives such as the City Centre Coalition (CCC) and the Transportation Committee of the Federation of Community Associations (FCA).
The CCC consists of 13 different downtown citizen’s groups and focuses on supporting community-oriented transportation planning that emphasizes walking, cycling, and transit. The CCC maintains a website which is an excellent resource for tracking ongoing transportation planning reports and activities in the City and providing a record of ongoing CCC activities.
