How can we all work together when tribal boundaries cross into multiple COGs/MPOs?
It is important to keep the communication open at the grass roots level (DE, RE, District Maintenance, Development Engineer). We work with all of the planning organizations and can help coordinate between them. Remember that communication is a two-way street and we need to be accountable to each other and be open to questions from both sides. It is recognized that communication between ADOT and BIA has room for improvement we can definitely do more in that area. Globe District noted that they have joint ADOT/Tribe/BIA meeting to develop innovative solutions to problems. At the MPD level, we use the COGs to both share and acquire information.
