Metropolitan Public Transportation Authority

The North Carolina General Assembly and NC Governor passed and signed into law effective July 1st, 2025, Session Law 2025-39; The Projects for Advancing Vehicle-Infrastructure Enhancements (“P.A.V.E.”) Act.

The P.A.V.E. Act authorizes Mecklenburg County to create a new Mecklenburg Public Transportation Authority (“MPTA”) in Section 5.1. The P.A.V.E. Act authorizes Mecklenburg County, the City of Charlotte, the Towns of Cornelius, Davidson, Huntersville, Matthews, Mint Hill, and Pineville (collectively the “Appointing Authorities”) to appoint members to the MPTA.

Pineville is looking for applicants interested! The candidates must reside within the MPTA’s jurisdiction and bring expertise in fields such as law, finance, engineering, public transportation, urban planning, logistics, government, architecture, economic development, or small business ownership. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of mobility and infrastructure in Mecklenburg County and ensure that public transportation meets the needs of our growing communities!
