Cal. Code Regs. tit. 21 § 6640
The term "transportation planning agency" has reference to that entity or policy committee thereof responsible for the development of a regional transportation plan. It may derive such responsibility by statute or by delegation from local government together with delegation of accompanying responsibility for implementation of the transportation planning process in cooperation with the State pursuant to memorandum of understanding.
The term "transportation planning agency" also applies to county transportation commissions created pursuant to Division 12 (commencing with section 130000 of the Public Utilities Code) for the purpose of administering Chapter 4 (commencing with section 99200) part 11, Division 10 of the Public Utilities Code.
For a county included entirely within the jurisdiction of a statutorily created regional comprehensive or transportation planning agency, it is such agency. Where only a portion of the county is subject to such a jurisdiction, it is also such agency, but only for such portion of the fund as the population within the agency's jurisdiction bears to the population of the county.
For every other county, and for a county partially subject to the jurisdiction of a statutory agency for such portion of the fund as the population outside such agency bears to the population of the county, it is such regional comprehensive planning agency as is established pursuant to any of the following authorities, and references in the Act to a "Council of Government" means such agency:
No moneys shall be allocated from the fund by the county or any other governmental entity except the one designated by the Director. In the event the county and the cities therein are neither subject to the jurisdiction of a statutorily created regional comprehensive or transportation planning agency nor within the area of or members of a locally created regional comprehensive planning agency, one must be established if moneys in the fund are to be disseminated, unless an option is made to establish only a single purpose local transportation commission pursuant to the Act.
