2 <br /> member jurisdictions, including Orange County. MOU approval and execution is occurring <br /> simultaneously in all jurisdictions and should be complete before the end of the year. <br /> The only revisions to the MOU document (Attachment 2) have been the addition of Orange <br /> County as a member jurisdiction, and the revision of weighted votes from 1 to 3 for the City of <br /> Mebane. <br /> The contents of the MOU are consistent with the following provisions of the NC GS 136-200.2: <br /> • Agreement for the participation in a continuing and cooperative comprehensive <br /> transportation planning process. <br /> • Creation of MPO Technical Coordinating Committee (TAC) and Transportation Advisory <br /> Committee (TAC) subcommittees, responsibilities, membership, and provisions for open <br /> meetings and public records. <br /> • Distribution of regular and weighted voting power among the constituent counties, <br /> municipal corporations, and other participating organizations. Weighted voting is based <br /> on the jurisdictional population within the MPO boundaries according to the most recent <br /> U.S. Census. The County's estimated population within the BG MPO planning area is <br /> approximately 1,817. Based on this, the County will have 1 regular vote and 1 weighted <br /> vote. <br /> • Designation of the City of Burlington as the Lead Planning Agency (LPA), and detailing <br /> the LPA's administrative responsibilities. <br /> • Stipulation that all transportation and related federal aid planning grants funds available <br /> to promote the cooperative transportation planning process be expended in accordance <br /> with the MPO's Planning Work Program adopted by the TAC. <br /> Update on the MPO Boundaries: In October and November, 2012, the revised BG MPO <br /> boundary within the County was endorsed by the BG MPO TCC and TAC, the County, and the <br /> Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro (DCHC) MPO TCC and TAC. Related to the revised boundaries, <br /> the DCHC MPO and BG MPO executed a letter of agreement in January 2013 addressing a few <br /> of Burlington's urbanized areas that will be planned by the DCHC MPO. Following full <br /> jurisdiction endorsement of the MOU, the North Carolina Department of Transportation <br /> (NCDOT) will officially receive the revised MPO boundaries, verify that they conform to legal <br /> requirements, and submit them to the NC Secretary of Transportation for final approval. The <br /> NCDOT reports that this process should be complete by the end of the year. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: Orange County staff would dedicate time to the BG MPO transportation <br /> planning activities, and TCC and TAC meetings. The BG MPO MOU has no provisions for <br /> membership fees. There are no membership fees associated with the County's membership in <br /> the BG MPO. MPO staff and planning activities are currently funded by the Federal <br /> government. The City of Burlington pays the local matching funds for Lead Planning Agency <br /> (LPA) planning activities. However, this system of the LPA paying for 100% could be revised in <br /> the future, and has already been revised in the DCHC MPO where matching funds will now <br /> derive from participating agencies. <br /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board approve the resolution <br /> (Attachment 1) approving the revised MOU adding Orange County as a voting member of the <br /> BG MPO, and authorize the Chair and Clerk to the Board to execute the MOU (Attachment 2). <br />
