23 <br /> Caroline Dwyer said that is true but that she does not know exactly what that process <br /> looks like. She said there will be a joint adoption of the plan. She said they have worked closely <br /> with the transit providers and that nothing in this plan is not a surprise. <br /> Commissioner Fowler asked what the units are for net new revenue hours. <br /> Caroline Dwyer said it is an hour and is a standard unit of measurement in the industry <br /> to calculate service cost. <br /> Commissioner Greene said this process has been very helpful and thanked Caroline <br /> Dwyer for her work. She said there should be an emphasis of what the unfunded ideas will look <br /> like. She said she sees the document as a framework that needs to be fleshed out. She said it <br /> will be a multiyear and multi layered investment. She asked how the plan will articulate the <br /> importance of connecting land use planning and transportation planning. <br /> Caroline Dwyer said the combination is inherent in the work her firm does. She said in <br /> the plan itself, they try to be explicit, and it is a complimentary relationship. She said that using <br /> the land use and transit plans together they integrate into transit plan. She said that they <br /> integrate this in the document. She said you cannot look at transit in a vacuum. <br /> Chair Price said she would like to look at going from east to west and west to east. She <br /> said that Hillsborough is the center of the county and that there is Durham Tech. She said there <br /> is quite a bit of travel from Mebane into Durham. She said most of the plan is Chapel Hill and <br /> then Chapel Hill going to Durham - other than the Mobility on Demand service. She said she <br /> would like Hillsborough to be considered going forward. <br /> Caroline Dwyer said she sees those trends in the analysis that they have done. She <br /> said the advice in the plan is to keep an eye on those and to make sure they are being <br /> considered for transit and land use plans. <br /> Tom Altieri said staff has been taking notes and they will follow up with the Board on <br /> several items. <br /> Commissioner Bedford said integrating the land use and transit plans support the <br /> governments of having the towns be a part of the voting staff because it brings additional <br /> perspectives. <br /> 5.
