ABOUT SJCOG

What We Do

The San Joaquin Council of Governments (SJCOG) is a Joint Powers Authority comprised of the County of San Joaquin and the Cities of Stockton, Lodi, Manteca, Tracy, Ripon, Escalon and Lathrop. SJCOG serves as the regional transportation planning agency and a technical and informational resource for these jurisdictions. While regional transportation planning is its primary role, SJCOG also takes a look at population statistics, airport land use, habitat and open space planning, and other regional issues. SJCOG also fosters intergovernmental coordination, within San Joaquin County and with neighboring jurisdictions, the state and various federal agencies.

SJCOG's monthly board meeting's provide the public forum and decision point for significant regional issues such as growth, transportation, environmental management, housing, open space, air quality, fiscal management, and economic development. Directors adopt loans, allocate transportation funds, establish policies and develop programs for these regional issues, which are used by local governments as well as other public and private organizations. Citizens, special interest groups and other agencies are involved in the planning and approval process by participating in SJCOG's committees and task forces as well as attending workshops and public forums.
