The road as it would come north of 215 Duke Forest wouldcreate double frontage lots for the Joppa Oaksresidents and wipe out their storage shedsand 216 fencingin the back so they these concerns.OnGordon Thomas on Pashall Drive there are two familygroups on 217 either end of the proposed new route that do not entirely agree with one another.218 219 Paul Guthrie: The reason I pushed this was because this will be a recurring event along that railroad line over the 220 next 20 years because all those surface crossings of those rails will be eliminated one way or another so we should 221 watch how this goes.222 223 Abigaile Pittman: In January, the TCC Sub-committee is reviewing and commenting on the MTP process and TRM224 (Triangle Regional Model). 225 226 Abigaile Pittman: Item 5c, Reviewed handout.227 228 Jeff Charles:Is part of this list on page 7 of 8, third down “Bicycle protection at signalized intersections”? I was 229 talking with Paul before the meeting about having Chuck Edwards come in to talk with us about this. I think that is a 230 generic problem in Orange County where we need to start talking to the NCDOT engineers about getting a bicycle 231 detection system.232 233 Abigaile Pittman: If you see a project and you would beinterested in seeing the detailed plans, let me know.234 235 Paul Guthrie: In the past, we have had Chuck Edwards in to talk about some things so we may want to accumulate 236 some issues. 237 238 Jeff Charles: On page 7, “Installation of a roundabout on Erwin Road and Mt. Moriah Road”, it is really needed but I 239 am thinking about the roundabout on 751 and Erwin takes up a lot of space and it is pretty small. How do you do that 240 at that intersection?241 242 Abigaile Pittman: Would you like me to get the plans for you?243 244 Jeff Charles: I would be interested in seeing that.245 246 Sam Lasris: Do you consider any of these items to be controversial that may need backup?247 248 Abigaile Pittman: I have talkedwith NancyCole Baker about the Safe Routes to School Action Planand the staff has 249 some initial steps outlined. I can invite Nancy to come to the meetingwhen we start discussing the Plan. 250 251 252 AGENDA ITEM VI: BOARD MEMBERS’DISCUSSION OF AREAS OF SPECIAL INTEREST253 OUTBoard Action:Development of a list of members’ areas of special interest and 254 assignments for monitoring other boards’ websites and/or agendas for transportation 255 related information and activities.256 257 Abigaile Pittman: I would like for you to write your name under the websites that need to be monitored for obvious 258 information that is listed to be shared.259 260 Paul Guthrie: I looked at the two websites listed by my name and the items that are listed as current will probably not 261 be something we want to get involved in. Sometimes it is a little hard to figure out what is going on.262 263 Jeff Charles: There are items that we want to be involved in.264 265 Alex Castro: We don’t have to individually report but we can send the information to Abigaile for a combined report.266 267 Jeff Charles: I will put myself on the list for the Commission for the Environment.268 7 ReturntoAgenda
