DRAFT <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Abigaile informed the Board that the next thing they need to do is have Staff create a resolution for the Board that 156 <br />addresses exactly what they want them to do. She added that some of those would be petitioning NCDOT since the 157 <br />overpass is not up to code on the height and safety issues, petitioning NCDOT to reduce the speed in that location, 158 <br />and petitioning NCDOT to put in a temporary light at that intersection. Heidi Perry had concerns because these things 159 <br />were already being considered. Abigaile answered that formal action from the OUTBoard and then formal action from 160 <br />the BOCC is going to add a lot more input than a phone call. Alex Castro stressed that the resolution needs to have 161 <br />strong wording so it’s fully understood that the consequences of not getting this taken care of immediately could be 162 <br />fatal. 163 <br /> 164 <br />Heidi Perry requested that Ed Lewis be contacted to ensure that he has a response for them at the next meeting. 165 <br /> 166 <br />The OUTBoard and Walkable Hillsborough Coalition agreed that the preparation of a resolution for the OUTBoard’s 167 <br />consideration is acceptable. 168 <br /> 169 <br />AGENDA ITEM 6: INFORMATIONAL ITEMS 170 <br /> 171 <br /> 172 <br />6A. NCDOT DIVISION 7 TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS LOCATED IN THE DCHC MPO PLANNING AREA – (MAX BUSHELL) 173 <br /> 174 <br />Max Bushell presented. 175 <br /> 176 <br />Art Menius asked Max when the Churton Street access improvement was supposed to be going released. Max 177 <br />Bushell answered that he thinks it already went out and it was scheduled to be complete by early 2018. 178 <br /> 179 <br />Jeff Charles asked Max Bushell to get an update about the bridge work near Borland. 180 <br /> 181 <br />AGENDA ITEM 7: BOARD COMMENTS 182 <br /> 183 <br />Abigaile Pittman informed the Board that they have a new Transit Direct for OPT named Theo Lettman. She also 184 <br />informed the Board that the meeting in February will be the Transit Advisory Services updates. Since the February 185 <br />agenda looked like it was going to be very full, the OUTBoard agreed that they could do a pre-meeting preview of the 186 <br />Safe Routes to School resolution. 187 <br /> 188 <br />AGENDA ITEM 8: ADJOURNMENT 189 <br /> 190 <br />OUTBoard meeting was adjourned by consensus. 191 <br /> 192 <br /> 193 <br /> <br /> ____________________________________ <br /> Heidi Perry, Chair <br /> 6
