Infrastructure Delivery Council

MISSION

The Infrastructure Delivery Council (IDC) was created to support public policy and legislation that promotes the fast and efficient delivery of needed infrastructure projects. To that end, IDC focuses on implementation of Proposition 35.


PURPOSE

IDC strives to promote cooperation among state, regional and local agencies, and engineering, design and construction firms in order to achieve timely delivery of much-needed infrastructure projects. California’s roads, schools, energy supplies, water supplies and other critical infrastructure are now inadequate to meet the needs of our growing population and economy. The energy crisis is only one aspect of a deep-seated problem in our state. IDC strives to create public/private partnerships in order to efficiently deliver California’s urgently needed infrastructure.

HISTORY


After voters overwhelmingly approved Proposition 35 in November 2000, public and private entities alike had questions about how to make the best use of the flexibility created by Prop 35. To address these questions, the IDC was established January 23, 2001, as an affiliate of the American Council of Engineering Companies California (ACEC California).


ACTIVITIES

IDC actively engages in governmental affairs, political action and public relations activities in order to fulfill its mission and achieve its goals.


MEMBERSHIP

Membership in IDC is open to interested engineering, construction management, surveying and construction firms, and firms which are related to the design/construction industry, that share the goals of IDC. Members of IDC are also Member Firms or Affiliate Member Firms of ACEC California.
