John represents Montclair on the governing boards of the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (“SBCTA”), Omnitrans, and the Animal Resource Center of the Inland Empire; and on the Inland Empire Utilities Agency’s Regional Sewerage Program Policy Committee.  He serves as the District 9 Regional Council Member of the Southern California Association of Government representing Rancho Cucamonga, Upland, and Montclair.  He also represents SBCTA on the Metrolink Board of Directors and on the Foothill Construction Gold Line  Authority Board.
