DRAFT Alyson West asked what the next steps are. Nish Trivedi asked whether the OUTBoard thinks some DCHC projects are more important than others. Alyson West and Heidi Perry advocated for Old N.C. 86 bike lanes as a priority. Art Menius said Mt. Carmel Road has been problematic. Jenn Sykes said the three at the top of the list are messes. People were sitting in traffic for 90 minutes on Friday in Hillsborough. She likes the order of the first three. Heidi Perry said she is not backing down from prioritizing Old N.C. 86. There have been several injuries and close calls. Nobody has been killed. Erle Smith asked with scores of 19.02 and 23.51 out of 50, if we make these must - haves, are we going to get them? Art Menius said these are just comments. Nish Trivedi said we'll see the results in June. Alyson West checked with Nish Trivedi that a deviation clause could be made for a safety argument but traffic concerns have no deviation clause option. Nish Trivedi said he will look at that deviation clause and include it. If there is a clause we can use to pursue points for Orange County projects that the Board favors like those mentioned today, than we will. The public comment period starts in June and staff will present the results than. Heidi Perry asked for the link for public comments. Staff will provide a link to the MPO /RPO planning processes. Nish Trivedi said Matt Day will be conducting a walk -in session for a couple hours when the TARPO process goes to public comment. He will check on how DCHC will be doing public comment in June.
