456 N. Trivedi: They're in the existing conditions report, so I'll get that to you and present that also at the 457 meeting if you need to see that, it has other levels. 458 459 M. Hughes: I think it's it would. It would be interesting, just as a point of comparison for me, because 1 460 don't travel the 70 corridor much, I tend to cross it, but I tend to travel 54 a lot and this is more unique to 461 me. It's just my curiosity. 462 463 N. Trivedi: Yeah, I'm happy to present that. 464 465 M. Hughes: Thanks very much, Nish and Lauren. 466 467 N. Trivedi: And Sherry, to help answer your question regarding what you can do with the study, we can 468 only affect the Orange County portion. So, you can make your recommendation for your action at the 469 April meeting any approval of the study contingent on XYZ like this is recommended approval. 470 Recommending this like, OK, we also recommend whatever you want to do with the speed for the rural 471 portion of Orange County. Like if you want to say the recommended speed be issued addressed a little 472 differently like changing or reducing the speed as your action also includes additional recommendations 473 to be considered through your action at the April meeting. So as an OUTBoard, we do have a strong 474 influence in shaping the orange, the rural portion, because the towns are taking independent action on 475 their town portion of it. So, we kind of tell Hillsboro what to do. We can't tell Mebane what to do. 476 477 S. Appel: OK, so I just want to make sure I understand what you are saying. Are you saying that if at our 478 April meeting, we can review this and we can ask that some of the recommendations be taken out before 479 they? 480 481 N. Trivedi: Not taken out but changed, like you can make changes because right now the actions that the 482 towns are taking are endorsing the plan as is. Mebane's action has been endorsing the whole plan as is, 483 so we can't take anything out of something that's been approved by them, and that's something that those 484 boards going to be doing tomorrow when I presented to Hillsboro so you can make changes to the Orange 485 County's portion that you feel are needed but you cannot remove something that's been approved. What 486 is it that you want to do with the speed? Is there a certain idea that we can explore that the consultant 487 can explore for the April meeting for the speed? 488 489 S. Appel: I just find that that change in speed limit is not necessarily going to achieve what the 490 recommendation wants it to, and I think- 491 492 L. Triebert: That's where I wonder if we may need some sort of interim meeting or email or a memo of 493 some sort kind of laying out some of our answers to these because we haven't gone into depth and in 494 some of the things about what the crash trends show about congestion and how the speed does line up 495 with severity and run-off road crashes. I would like to be able to show you guys those things that may 496 change whether you want to endorse the speed. If we do that presentation of data and kind of information 497 at the April meeting then there's potential for changes to recommendations and then it's a following 498 meeting where it's finally endorsed or if we want to try to address as much as we can so that there is or 499 isn't, there's a clear approval or not a hey if you change this and adjust that then we'll approve it. 500 N. Trivedi: The OUTBoard meeting is on April 15th. There's a third Monday of the month. 501 1 don't think you can do April 1 st. 502 503 L. Triebert: No, no. 504 505 N. Trivedi: So, I don't know if the Board wants to get together again between the 2nd and the 15th, or 506 would you like to let the consultant provide more information together and present at the 15th meeting?
