County website. The OUTBoard will see it with review comments from the Planning Board and then make a 161 <br />recommendation to the BOCC. 162 <br /> 163 AGENDA ITEM 8: STAFF UPDATES 164 165 <br />8A. SPOT 5.0 LOCAL INPUT POINT RESULTS (NISH TRIVEDI) 166 <br />Nish Trivedi explained that Efland-Cedar Grove Road was removed from ranking because Orange County 167 <br />Commissioners had questions about what Hillsborough would do with that area. The other projects put forward will 168 <br />be given full points. 169 <br /> 170 <br />Matt Day said he posted TARPO’s draft earlier that day. He reviewed that there is a Regional category and a Division 171 <br />category. There is nothing from TARPO in the region category. He said in the division, both the Orange County 172 <br />buses and the Old Greensboro Road project would receive 100 points from TARPO. 173 <br /> 174 <br />Nish Trivedi added that this does not mean those projects will get funded. He said the only local project in the 175 <br />regional scoring right now is widening N.C. 86 north of Hillsborough to N.C. 57. 176 <br /> 177 <br />Alex Castro said he does not understand scoring…if there’s a project that is really only a Divisional level project, 178 <br />does it not come to be because it does not have State or Regional impact? 179 <br /> 180 <br />Matt Day explained there are three pots of money and three scoring competitions. A project might only be eligible for 181 <br />Division funding and other projects cascading down. The fact that a project is Regional does not impact how it scores 182 <br />in the division. He said Division is only looking at Division when choosing the highest scoring project. 183 <br /> 184 <br />Nish Trivedi said only the N.C. 86 project can go from being a Regional project to a Division project. 185 <br /> 186 <br />Alex Castro asked if a bypass around Hillsborough would be Regional. Matt Day answered it possibly would be and 187 <br />maybe even a Statewide project. 188 <br /> 189 <br />Nish Trivedi and Abigaile Pittman reminded Alex Castro that a bypass around Hillsborough was not well received by 190 <br />many in Hillsborough. 191 <br /> 192 <br />8B. MPO/RPO AND NCDOT UPDATES (NISH TRIVEDI) – MATERIALS TO BE PROVIDED AT THE MEETING. 193 <br />Nish Trivedi asked whether there were any questions regarding the NCDOT updates. 194 <br /> 195 <br />Alyson West asked what work was happening on the shoulders on Buckhorn Road. 196 <br /> 197 <br />Abigaile Pittman answered that she had been advised by Mike Mills, NCDOT that the work is the installation of new 198 <br />cable line. 199 <br /> 200 AGENDA ITEM 9: ADJOURNMENT 201 <br />OUTBoard meeting was adjourned at 7:52 p.m. 202 <br /> 203 <br /> 204 <br /> <br /> ____________________________________ <br /> Heidi Perry, Chair <br /> <br /> <br />6
