The San Diego Association of Governments (abbreviated SANDAG) is an association of local

councilmembers, and County Supervisors, and also has capital planning and fare setting powers for the county's transit systems, the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System and North County Transit District
, some of which was assumed by the Metropolitan Transit Development Board (became MTS in 1986).

SANDAG, along with the Southern California Association of Governments, are the only metropolitan planning agencies in Southern California.

Governance

The board was previously governed with the representation of one board member from every city in San Diego County, with each member holding two votes in two systems. The approval of a project required the majority tally vote representing all cities and board members and the majority of represented members weighted by population.

After the passage of SANDAG's reform bill in 2017, any four representatives representing a majority of the county's population can overrule the tally vote.[1]
