The West Alabama Regional Commission is made up of representatives from the seven counties and 37 municipalities in Region 2. The council is governed by an executive committee and a board of directors. The WARC receives its funding from federal matching grants, member government dues, an annual appropriation from the State of Alabama, and contract fees. The scope of the council's work includes economic and community development, transportation planning, nutrition and assistance programs for the elderly, a part-time employment program for low income senior citizens, technical assistance, tourism promotion, and public information. The council is also the regional clearinghouse for federal projects and programs. In this capacity the council regularly reviews applications for federal assistance to insure that proposed projects do not conflict with adopted regional plans or duplicate existing or proposed projects.
