 Transportation System Development Corporation
Print

The Round Rock Transportation System Development Corporation (sometimes called the 4B Corporation) is a seven-member citizen panel that promotes economic development within the City through transportation system improvements. In addition, the Corporation reviews and approves payments of maintenance and operating expenses associated with authorized projects approved by the Corporation.

Created in 1997, the Board promotes the improvement of streets, roads, drainage and other related transportation systems, including the maintenance and operating expenses associated with them. The Board finances projects by issuing bonds, notes and other forms of debt. Voters in 1997 approved the creation of the 4B Corporation and the levy of a half-cent sales tax to fund it.

The Board develops, reviews and updates the City’s Transportation Capital Improvement Program to ensure the plan meets the community’s transportation needs. The Board reports to City Council each year no later than March 1.

The term “4B” comes from the Texas State Law that establishes the criteria for such entities.

Meetings
The Round Rock Transportation System Development Corporation meets at minimum once every quarter. Special meetings may be called.  All meetings are broadcast live on Time Warner Cable Channel 10, Round Rock's government access channel. 

The Board's annual meeting is at 5:30 p.m. on the second Thursday of January each year.
