3 Attachment I Draft Minutes Environmental protection Quality of life Efficient management Reliability and resilience Energy conservation The RTP must be consistent with all local transportation plans. In order to follow all regulations and meet requirements, CAMPO has reviewed local Comprehensive Plans, Imagine Corvallis, and will be coordinating with local TSPs. The following emerging policy areas were identified in the Corvallis Area MPO; Sustainability, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Alternative Modes, Land Use, and Public Health. Richardson briefly reviewed each of the emerging policies. CAMPO held two regional scenario planning workshops in May. Major themes expressed by participants included: Balance jobs and housing Reduce VMT through efficient land use Provide centrally located affordable housing Meet the transportation needs of disadvantaged populations Additional public input will be taken at an open house on September 28 at the Corvallis Public Library from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Richardson indicated that the current plan has a vision statement with ten main goals. The RTP update has eight recommended topic areas for updated goals: Managing and Operating the System Affordability and Equitability Promoting Public Health Safe and Efficient Movement of People and Goods 2

4 Attachment I Draft Minutes Economic Vitality Environmental Sustainability (Including Reducing GHG) Linking Land Use and Transportation Members were split into a two group exercise to discuss and provide input on the focus areas of the draft regional goals and objectives.

V. Results of Scenario Planning Workshops Members were requested to provide additional comments on the Goals and Objectives by Friday, September 2. In May, CAMPO held two community workshops. The workshops included visualization tools and activities to engage ideas and conversations about future land use and transportation. Table participants recorded notes on flip charts during the workshop. The notes were reviewed along with information captured electronically at the workshop and used for guidance in creating analysis scenarios. Amy DeBay reviewed the results of the community workshops and the resulting three analysis scenarios. For next steps, the Policy Board will receive a review of the Goals and Objectives, Regional Network, and Scenario Preferences at their September 14 meeting. On September 28, CAMPO will hold a public open house meeting of the RTP. Members had some questions and provided feedback to consultants, Members to provide additional feedback to staff with specifics on which strategies in the analysis scenarios should be pursued and which should be abandoned, by September 9. 2

8 Attachment II Draft Minutes VI. RTSP s Regional Network including: Section of the tech memo figure 14 refers to roads west of campus, not east. The methodology described in the tech memo for the desirability surface concept is difficult to follow. Revise tech memo narrative for additional clarity Additional comments with specifics on which strategies in the analysis scenarios should be pursued and which should be abandoned, are due to staff by September 9. The Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) emphasizes the importance of a regional network of roads and transit facilities in meeting the mobility needs of the population. It requires all transportation system plans establish a coordinated network of transportation facilities adequate to serve regional and local transportation needs. A Regional Network needs to be identified for the Regional Transportation Plan. Richardson reviewed the following elements that should be considered for inclusion in the regional network: The system of arterial and collector roads Public transit routes, transfer points, and stations Park-and-ride locations Bicycle and pedestrian routes Airports and rail lines Richardson advised that for the Corvallis MPO area, the regional network is assumed to include: All arterial and collector roads on the federal functional classification system All bridges, at least twenty fee in length that carry a public road All transit facilities and infrastructure Transportation facilities leading to the Corvallis Municipal Airport All bicycle and pedestrian facilities located on federal Members to provide feedback to staff on the Regional Transportation System Plan; Regional Network Identification by Friday, September 2,

9 Attachment II Draft Minutes functionally classified routes, as well as off-street multi-use pathways of at least one mile in length Comments/Edits to the document include: Members noted that bullet three needs to be rewritten to include the 99 Express (transit service to Adair Village). Members requested for the maps to show that the Coast to Valley Express goes to the City of Albany. VII. Updates Members were requested to review the Regional Transportation System Plan; Regional Network Identification and provide feedback to staff by September 2, a) Directors Report: The TAC has worked on updating the criteria for the prioritization of projects. This work needs to be resumed and the projects will need to be prioritized. CAMPO will need a list of capital improvement projects from the City of Corvallis for this work. In 2010, the legislation designated DLCD and ODOT to come up with rules for the reduction of greenhouse gas emission. Those target rules needed to be reviewed in five years time. The review of the target rules is now taking place. Discussion has been on whether there should be one target for the State or individual targets per MPOs. CAMPO staff is advocating for one target for the State. Another discussion is the value of the RTSP requirement. b) Jurisdictional Updates: City of Philomath Working on crack sealing in town. ODOT is still considering scoping phase for improvements of the 4

10 Attachment II Draft Minutes highway couplet area. The city is looking at streetscaping improvement that would go along with those improvements.

11 memo To: From: CC: CAMPO RTP Project Advisory Committee Carole Richardson, PE Plangineering Ali Bonakdar, CAMPO Executive Director Date: October 14, 2016 Subject: Interim RTP Project List Comments: In order to comply with federal planning regulations, the CAMPO Policy Board will need to adopt an updated Regional Transportation Plan on or before March 16, As we ve discussed previously, the timing of this requirement is somewhat awkward because CAMPO will not have the benefit of project recommendations from the local TSPs, which are expected later in Therefore, an interim RTP will be prepared for adoption in March, which may be amended later when the local TSP s are complete. Only projects listed in the RTP are eligible for federal funding. The project list for the interim RTP update in March will be based on the list from the existing (2035) RTP with these changes: We will delete any recently completed projects from the previous list. Any future regionally significant projects that are known at this time could be added; however, please keep in mind that the RTP must be financially constrained. If the PAC wishes to add any large dollar projects to the RTP at this time, we will need to show them on the illustrative list. Please review the projects sponsored by your agency on the attached list and maps, and bring any changes, corrections or new projects that are known at this time to the PAC meeting on October 28. If you will have multiple reviewers at your agency, we would appreciate a single consolidated markup. We will draft an interim project list based on your markups, and finalize the interim list at the November PAC meeting. In addition, there are two long-standing multi-jurisdictional proposals that have been studied previously, and we would like PAC members to think about whether these concepts are still relevant to the region. They are:

12 CAMPO PAC Memo, Page 2 October 14, 2016 Interim RTP Project List South Corvallis Connector - a new roadway connecting the south Corvallis or Kiger Island areas to Philomath. Both the City of Corvallis and Benton County had general concepts for this connection in previous local plans. The concept was included in a 1997 South Corvallis Area Refinement Plan performed by the City. Later in 2001, the Bellfountain Corridor was defined in Benton County s TSP. The project would include areas both inside and outside of CAMPO s planning area. North Bypass an extension of the current southerly bypass beginning outside CAMPO s planning area on the east side of the Willamette river and extending northward to enter CAMPO s planning area just south of the Holiday Inn Express, ultimately connecting with the 99W couplet near the City s Public Works Department. This concept was the subject of an EIS in I ve included maps showing both concepts for information only at this time. Please give some thought to them and we ll discuss soon. --Carole 2
