4 PUBLIC COMMENT No public comments were presented. REGULAR UPDATES Regular updates included NCDOT Division 13 and 14 updates and TPB and MPO Subcommittee and Staff updates. No FHWA/FTA updates were presented. Tristan Winkler provided legislative updates including the State s committee on long-term funding strategies is meeting but there is nothing to report from the group yet. Tristan Winkler provided an update on the 5307 Sub Allocation Formula Study which is underway with the consultants meeting with transit providers in the MPO region. BUSINESS Public Involvement Policy Amendments Tristan Winkler shared that staff are recommending the following amendments for the Public Involvement Policy: 1) Extend the public review period for the Metropolitan Transportation Plan from 21 days to 30 days; and 2) Generalize language in the Public Involvement Policy concerning prioritization; specifically removing language that the MPO will prioritize projects from the MTP during the prioritization process in order to better fit the current prioritization methodology. The Amendments have been advertised and available for public review since February 11,. The Amendments can be found on the FBRMPO website: Amendments_03_.pdf. Joel Setzer moved to approve the recommendation that the list of Public Involvement Policy Amendments be forwarded to the FBRMPO Board for consideration. James Eller seconded and the motion carried without further discussion. SPOT Methodology Tristan Winkler provided a brief presentation on the updates to the Methodology and shared that the MPO s Prioritization Subcommittee has been working on updating the MPO s Prioritization (SPOT) Methodology since October 2015 and the subcommittee provided the MPO Board with a draft of that document in January,. He communicated that the MPO s allocation of local input points on projects in the and Division Needs tiers plays a part in determining the project s overall score in the State s prioritization process. For each tier, the MPO s allocation of local input points accounts for 15 percent of the Tier and 25 percent of the Division Needs Tier of a project s SPOT score. He shared too that NCDOT contacted MPO staff to request a number of changes to the proposed methodology including the method for evaluating Aviation Projects which needed more detail about how that process would work should that type of project be requested to cascade. Other modifications mainly have to do with the roadway safety with NCDOT recommending that a range of scores be used as SPOT 4.0 uses scaling. For the Division Needs pot, 200 Division Needs points will be reserved for Bike/Pedestrian projects and 100 points will be reserved for Transit projects. Discussion occurred regarding the NCOT s suggestion to scale projects in the roadway category. 339 New Leicester Highway, Suite 140 Asheville. NC

5 Joel Setzer moved to approve recommending the SPOT Methodology as presented and to forward that to the MPO Board for consideration to adopt at their March meeting. Autumn Radcliff seconded and the motion carried without further discussion. STP-DA & TAP-DA Methodology Tristan Winkler shared that the MPO s Prioritization Subcommittee is recommending changes to the scoring methodology. The proposed changes largely affect the geographic equity and priority point sections of the scoring methodology. He reviewed the proposed changes to the methodology with the TCC. Discussion occurred regarding the Prioritization Subcommittee s original recommendations for the methodology and that MPO staff has tweaked those a bit in order to keep the methodology fair to smaller jurisdictions. Board members also discussed if the Methodology should be sent back to the Prioritization Subcommittee so they could approve the staff changes. Tristan Winkler shared that technically, the subcommittee disbanded after its last meeting and the appointment of members to a new Prioritization Subcommittee is on the agenda for today s meeting. Joel Setzer suggested conditional approval by the TCC today-contingent on returning the Methodology to the Prioritization Subcommittee before the next MPO Board meeting in order for the subcommittee to be able to give a nod to the modifications made by staff. Joel Setzer moved to approve the scoring methodology contingent on the Prioritization Subcommittee reviewing and having no issues with the staff modifications and to recommend that to the MPO Board for consideration. Andrew Bowen seconded and the motion carried without further discussion. STP-DA & TAP-DA Call for Projects Tristan Winkler shared that the MPO staff have previously been directed to hold calls for projects with STP- DA and TAP-DA funds every two years. The next call is planned to open April 1, for funding in years FY FY He provided the estimated funding amounts which is $12,600,000 for STP-DA funds and $1,060,000 for TAP-DA funds. Due to the State providing the funding for STP-DA projects previously funded, those funds were returned to the MPO which correlates to the higher level of funding available for this call for projects. Andrew Bowen moved to approve opening the Call for Projects on April 1, and to recommend that the MPO Board consider the approval of the same. Josh Harrold seconded and the motion carried without further discussion. Prioritization Subcommittee Elections Tristan Winkler shared that the new Bylaws for the Prioritization Subcommittee were adopted in November, 2015 and will take affect in April,. As per those Bylaws, the TCC and Board are required to make recommendations to fill the new roster. Three MPO Board members and four MPO TCC members (local government representatives) will fill the subcommittee s roster. Terms for members appointed to the subcommittee are for two years and there are attendance requirements. The meetings are open to all members of the MPO s TCC and Board, as well as NCDOT staff who are welcome to attend as non-voting members.

12 NCDOT Strategic Prioritization 4.0 Preliminary SPOT Scores for and Funding Tiers This workbook contains preliminary quantitative scores for all projects evaluated in Prioritization 4.0 (P4.0), which are subject to North Carolina s Strategic Transportation Investments (STI) Law. All data used for scoring and evaluating projects, including scores and initial point-in-time cost estimates, have been generated by either the North Carolina Department of Transportation and/or through coordination with local governments. The results are intended for use in the Department s Strategic Prioritization Process and for preliminary level planning, scoring, and evaluation purposes only. MPOs, RPOs, and NCDOT Divisions will assign local input points for and Division Needs projects in the spring and summer of to produce final project scores and rankings. Per the STI law, these scores will be used in the development of NCDOT s Draft State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) to be released in late. Per the results of North Carolina s Prioritization Process, the French Broad River MPO did not receive funding for any projects on the Tier. These projects are still eligible for funding in latter tiers to be decided over the summer and fall of. For a schedule and other resources on the MPO s process for prioritizing projects to receive local input points, please visit the MPO s Strategic Prioritization website: The scores illustrated below are the preliminary scores from the NCDOT Strategic Prioritization Office of Transportation for the French Broad River MPO Planning Area. Projects in the Tier will compete for funding with other projects from the geographic areas administered by NCDOT Divisions 13 & 14. points shown below will change as a result of local input points allocated by MPOs, RPOs, and NCDOT Divisions.
