Pursuant to Government Code section 14506, the Commission shall organize itself into at least four committees: Aeronautics, Streets and Highways, Mass Transportation, and Planning. The Commission committees are:

(1) The Committee on Aeronautics, which shall consider issues relating to aeronautics;

(2) The Review and Highway Committee which shall consider issues relating to streets and highways and determine the items to be on the agenda for the full Commission meeting and which items of the agenda will be on the consent calendar.

Commission agenda items will be heard by the Review and Highway Committee. The Committee will listen to argument and consider any evidence and recommend a decision to the full Commission as a consent-calendar item or recommend further presentation before the full Commission as a non-consent item.

Consent calendar items can be removed from the consent calendar and considered separately at the request of any one member of the Commission.

(3) The Program and Planning Committee which shall consider the long range planning, policy, and programming issues. This Committee shall be responsible for transportation planning related issues, including, but not limited to, monitoring the transportation planning and programming process pursuant to chapter 2.5 (commencing with section 65030) of division 1 of title 7 and recommending to the commission the allocation of federal and state funds available for planning and research.

The chairman shall appoint a Technical Advisory Committee on Aeronautics, after consultation with members of the aviation industry, airport operators, pilots, and other aviation interest groups and experts, as appropriate.

This Technical Advisory Committee shall give technical advice to the Committee on Aeronautics on the full range of aviation issues to be considered by the Commission.

The Commission may organize itself into additional committees; however, the Commission shall not form a committee for the purpose of considering budgetary and related fiscal matters.

After consulting with members of the Commission, the chairman of the Commission shall appoint the members of all the committees of the Commission. Committees shall be composed of no more than four members. Two members shall constitute a quorum. Majority vote of the committee and at least two votes shall be required for committee action.

Should a committee lack a quorum, the Commission chairman shall appoint temporary committee members to establish a quorum. If the Commission chairman is not available, the committee chairman may appoint temporary committee members. In the absence of either the Commission chairman or committee chairman, the committee member present may appoint temporary members.

The Commission chairman shall not serve on any of the committees except in an ex-officio capacity.

Each committee shall elect one of its members, on an annual basis, as the committee chairperson who shall preside at all committee meetings. In the absence of the elected chairperson, the committee members present shall select a temporary chairperson.
