The West Central Texas Council
of Governments (WCTCOG) is a public entity made up of
associated cities, counties and special governmental
districts. WCTCOG serves 19 counties over an area
of 18,000 square miles. WCTCOG addresses issues such
as regional and municipal planning, economic and
community development, hazard mitigation and emergency
planning, aging services, water use, pollution control,
9-1-1 services, health education, youth programs, transit administration and transportation planning.
WCTCOG can plan, assist local governments, and deliver
public services, but has no power to tax or to regulate.
State law requires the governing body of regional councils
be composed primarily of local elected officials. Due
to adopted by-laws, the Executive Committee
(the governing
body of WCTCOG) is comprised entirely of local elected
officials.
