INFRASTRUCTURE
An adequate infrastructure system is critical to meeting the growing needs of Orange County’s residents and businesses. Whether it’s advocating for increased investment in the county’s roads and highway system, or increasing the supply of quality drinking water, OCBC works to make sure Orange County is able to meet the demands of a growing population and expanding economy.
The driving force to OCBC's infrastructure initiative is the Infrastructure Committee. This action committee provides public policy direction to OCBC's Board of Directors. For more information on how to get involved in the committee, please contact Wallace Walrod, Vice President of Economic Development and Research.
OCMoves is a public/private partnership initiated to advocate for Orange County transportation priorities on the local, state and federal levels. The Business Council understands that good planning for our future – sound, efficient infrastructure systems -- is the very foundation our region is built upon, a key driver of:
- a prosperous, growing economy
- competitive businesses
- and a high quality of life for Orange County residents
Meeting infrastructure challenges requires good research, planning and strategy, and ultimately taking strong leadership positions on infrastructure policies and projects that will largely define Orange County’s prosperity and quality of life for decades to come.
Everything you need to take action. We’ve put together a fast and easy-to-use set of advocacy resources to make it easy to get involved with the issues that matter most to Orange County Businesses.
Currently, OCBC is advocating for a bi-partisan comprehensive solution addressing longstanding issues regarding water storage and solutions to the state's most urgent needs. Among these are restoration to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, investing in local water supply projects throughout the state, and Delta conveyance.
