About Fresno Council Of Governments
Fresno Council Of Governments, a U.S. local government council of governments entity based in Fresno, California, acts as a prime recipient of federal grants focused on regional transportation planning, transit infrastructure, and climate mitigation work. The organization does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively as a grant recipient, with no subcontracting footprint in the federal space.
Fresno COG's customer base concentrates heavily with the Department of Transportation. The Federal Transit Administration accounts for 25 of 29 awards in the source data, the Federal Highway Administration for 3 awards, and the Environmental Protection Agency Region 9 for 1 award, representing 100% coverage across three distinct customer agencies. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $39.5 million, with activity distributed across decades of grant participation but accelerating in recent years.
Recent representative work spans three capability areas. Under the Federal Transit Administration Section 5310 program, Fresno COG has administered grants for paratransit vehicle acquisition and operations — a September 2024 formula grant (completion deadline June 2027) funded replacement vehicles for Fresno Area Express, Fresno County Rural Transit Agency, and United Cerebral Palsy Central California to serve seniors and individuals with disabilities. Under FTA's Low or No Emission Grants for Buses and Facilities program, a September 2024 project grant (completion deadline June 2027) awarded $2.162 million to support Phase II of a new operations and maintenance facility in Selma, California, including solar infrastructure, EV charging, and battery storage for FCRTA's fleet. Under the Federal Highway Administration's Safe Streets and Roads for All program, Fresno COG received a $400,000 planning grant (awarded January 20, 2026, completion deadline January 20, 2029) to develop a comprehensive Safety Action Plan addressing roadway fatalities and serious injuries in the Fresno region. The organization also holds a $1 million EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grants cooperative agreement (CFDA 66.046, awarded August 1, 2023, completion deadline July 31, 2027) to develop regional climate mitigation plans and engage low-income and disadvantaged communities.
Activity has been modest but recent — two awards in 2021, then gaps in 2022 and 2023, resuming with three awards in 2024 and one in 2026. Four awards face completion within the next twenty-four months, representing potential recompete exposure for follow-on transportation and planning initiatives. Fresno COG functions as a pass-through regional planning agency and convening entity rather than a direct service provider or contractor, administering federal dollars on behalf of local transit operators, county agencies, and community organizations within the Fresno metropolitan area.
