Governance
AMBAG's Board of Directors is composed of locally elected officials appointed by their respective city council or board of supervisors. Each member city has one representative on the Board, while each member county has two.
The AMBAG Board of Directors sets policy and oversees a small professional staff. AMBAG's funding comes primarily from the state and federal governments for mandated planning activities and grant projects. Local funding comes primarily from annual membership dues contributed by each member agency.
