D R A F T Jeff Charles: If you are concerned about seniors they are the least likely to be able to pay that feeso I think it would 329 be important to not charge.Could we go with a recommendation to bring it back to Bret and you reorganize it anddo 330 what Amy is suggesting?331 332 Bret Martin: I would move it earlier and keep everything else in the same order and it would be presented to the 333 BOCC as the OUTBoard’srecommendation.334 335 Ted Triebel: In the Attachments 3, 4 and 5, I don’t see any statement that we should be gathering dataon ridership 336 so that there will be a re-examinationof routes that should be made and not just this is the way it is. Shouldn’t there337 be something in there that after a certain period we should rearrange a route or two?That wouldbe a worthwhile 338 comment to make.339 340 Bret Martin: That will be in the program and we have already developed service standards. 341 342 Ted Triebel: I only like thisif at the one year mark, we will take a look at it and make sure we have what we need.343 344 Bret Martin: There will be service standards in the programthat will address that. 345 346 Jeff Charles: Can I get a motion to approve Attachments 3, 4 and 5 with the changes of the senior service getting a 347 higherpriorityand including a footnotecomment that Ted is suggesting?348 349 Motion made by Alex Castro to approve Attachments 3, 4 and 5 with changes that the senior services get higher 350 priority and include a footnote thatthat new bus routes be reviewed annually according to program service standards.351 Seconded by Don.352 Vote:Unanimous353 354 Abigaile Pittman: In March and April the program will be presented to the BOCC with your recommendation and 355 comments. In April and May they will approve some type of bus program for the first five years,and in May and June 356 there is a group looking at making revisions to the OC BRIP because facts have changed with regard to funding and 357 projecttiming. 358 359 Jeff Charles: We need one more motion with respect to the equitable use of funding.360 361 Alex Castro: Our concern is that prior transportation planning and allocation of funding has been adversely impacted 362 by the newly implemented Federal Map 21 program and the State Strategic Mobility Funding Plan,and that the 363 changes in WashingtonDCand Raleigh havechanged priorities and the allocation of funding.364 365 Bret Martin: Nothing changed in WashingtonDC. Triangle Transit changed the percentages because the 366 assumptions they made originally were not correct. 367 368 Alex Castro:There needs to be a correction to the planning allocations of funding made by Triangle Transit which 369 were not correct as to Federal funding, and then there needs to be an assessment of the impact of the new thrust 370 from Raleigh underthe Strategic Mobility Formula plan which has changed the methodology for the prioritization and 371 funding of projects.372 373 Jeff Charles:The OUTBoard is asking for additional information to assist them in understanding the procedure with 374 respect to changes to the OCbRIP (potentially, as Alex discussed), and also how the increased revenue is going to 375 be split. Tell the BOCC that If you want the OUTBoard to be able to continue to comment they need additional 376 information. The OUTBoard has concerns about its understanding of the revenue stream in light of the changing 377 landscape. 378 379 Ted Triebel: The OUTBoard does not have the appropriate data.380 381 Abigaile Pittman: Our BOCC also does not yet have clarity regarding the most current fundingprojections from 382 Triangle Transit. 383 9 ReturntoAgenda
