PERFECT. READY? THANK YOU.

UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED.

SO WE HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE, SO LET'S HAVE PUBLIC COMMENTS.

IS ANYBODY OUT THERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE? NO HANDS. SO I'M ASSUMING THERE'S NO ONE TO ADDRESS US ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS , SO LET'S MOVE ON TO THE ACTION ITEMS.

[1. MOTION TO RECOMMEND BROWARD MPO APPROVE the Complete Streets and Other Localized Initiatives Program (CSLIP) Cycle 4 Priority List of Projects, Directing MPO Staff to Work with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Staff on the Vetting and Programing of Viable Projects ]

CONNOR? HELLO, MY NAME IS CONNOR CAMPOBASSO WITH THE BROWARD MPO.

AND TODAY I'M GONNA BE TALKING ABOUT THE CSLIP PROGRAM.

I'M GOING TO BE COVERING A COUPLE OF TOPICS ABOUT CSLIP , BUT THE MAIN THING I WANT TO COVER TODAY IS THE CSLIP DRAFT PRIORITY LIST, WHICH IS THE ACTION ITEM.

REAL QUICK, I HAVE A LITTLE DEFINITION OF WHAT EXACTLY CSLIP IS.

I WON'T READ THROUGH IT, BUT ESSENTIALLY IT'S A FUNDING MECHANISM THAT WE USE HERE TO FUND SMALLER TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS WITH OUR LOCAL PARTNERS.

SO I HAVE A QUICK AGENDA FOR YOU HERE.

I 'M GONNA FIRST TALK ABOUT CYCLE THREE.

THAT'S THE ONE FROM 2019.

THE FINAL RESULTS OF THAT, WHAT PROJECTS WE FUNDED, AND ALSO SOME CLOSING INFORMATION.

THEN I'M GONNA GO IN TO CYCLE FOUR, WHICH IS THE CURRENT APPLICATION PROCESS.

I HAVE SOME QUICK FACTS ABOUT THE OVERVIEW OF CYCLE FOUR AND THEN I'LL BE TALKING ABOUT THE RANKINGS OF THE PROJECTS.

AND THEN FINALLY WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT CSLIP MOVING FORWARD.

THERE'S A COUPLE OF MAJOR UPDATES HAPPENING WITH THE PROGRAM , SO I'LL GET INTO THAT A

[00:05:04]

THAT 31.9 IS A COMBINATION OF OUR SU DOLLARS, WHICH IS OUR FEDERAL DOLLARS, THE TAP DOLLARS, WHICH IS FROM THE OLD TAP PROGRAM AND ALSO A LITTLE BIT OF LOCAL DOLLARS THAT WERE CONTRIBUTED TO THE INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS.

SO I HAVE SOME CLOSING INFORMATION HERE .

SO IF YOU WERE AWARDED A PROJECT, YOU PROBABLY WOULD'VE RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT YOU WERE AWARDED FUNDING FOR THE PROJECT.

I WENT TO THE MPO BOARD MEMBERS, CITY MANAGER, AND I THINK WHOEVER WAS DESIGNATED FROM THE AGENCY TO MANAGE THE PROJECTS.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, THERE'S A LIST OF PROGRAM PROJECTS THAT CAN BE FOUND ON THE CSLIP WEBSITE. YOU CAN CLICK THE LINK IN THE PDF BACKUP.

AND IF YOU WANT SOME MORE DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT AN INDIVIDUAL PROJECT, YOU CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THE BROWARD COUNTY CITIZENS REPORT, WHICH IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE.

AND THEN THE FINAL THING I HAVE ON HERE IS JUST THAT THE MPO AND DOT WILL BE WORKING WITH THE INDIVIDUAL AGENCIES AS THEIR PROJECTS MOVE FORWARD THROUGH THE DIFFERENT PHASES.

SO DOT WILL BE ASSIGNING A PM.

THAT PM WILL BE REACHING OUT TO YOU AND WALKING THROUGH THE DIFFERENT STAGES.

SO WITH THAT, I'LL GO INTO CYCLE FOUR.

SO CYCLE FOUR CLOSED, NOVEMBER 13TH, 2019, JUST COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO .

WE RECEIVED SIXTEEN APPLICATIONS FROM 13 DIFFERENT AGENCIES.

AND SINCE THE CLOSE DATE, THE MPO HAS BEEN EVALUATING AND PRIORITIZING THE DIFFERENT PROJECTS THAT WERE SUBMITTED THROUGH THE APPLICATION.

DURING THAT PROCESS WE FOUND THAT FIVE OF THE APPLICATIONS THAT WERE SUBMITTED WERE FOUND TO BE INCOMPLETE, SO THEY WON'T BE REPRESENTED IN T HE FINAL RANKING TABLE THAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE. SO WITH THAT, HERE IS THE OBJECTIVE RANKING.

SO IF YOU REMEMBER, IF YOU WERE HERE LAST YEAR OR THE PRIOR YEARS BEFORE THAT, THE OBJECTIVE RANKING IS THE OUTPUT OF THE OBJECTIVE RANKING TOOL THAT WE HAVE.

ESSENTIALLY, WE GEOCODE THE DIFFERENT PROJECTS.

WE HAVE DIFFERENT DATA SETS THAT THEY'RE EVALUATED AGAINST AND THEN THEY'RE ALL EVENTUALLY RANKED AGAINST EACH OTHER.

SO YOU CAN SEE THE PRIORITIZATION OF THAT ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE.

AND THEN THE POINT VALUES ASSIGNED TO EACH PROJECT ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE.

IT THEN GOES THROUGH A SECOND RANKING, WHICH IS THE ROUND RANK.

THIS IS WHERE WE DO AN EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY TO MAKE SURE THAT NO ONE AGENCY IS GETTING MULTIPLE PROJECTS WHILE OTHER AGENCIES GET ZERO PROJECTS. THAT DIDN'T REALLY TAKE INTO EFFECT THIS CYCLE.

THE ONLY AGENCY THAT HAD MULTIPLE PROJECTS IN THE RANKING WAS MIRAMAR, AND COINCIDENTALLY ONE OF THEIR PROJECTS WAS RANKED AT THE BOTTOM , SO NO PROJECTS WERE SWITCHED AROUND FOR THE ROUND RANKING. THE LAST RANKING IS THE POLICY RANK.

THIS IS WHERE WE LET AGENCIES PRIORITIZE THEIR OWN PROJECTS AT A LOCAL LEVEL.

THAT WAY, IF THEY HAVE THEIR OWN LOCAL PRIORITIES, THEY CAN SWAP OUT PROJECTS FOR THEIR OWN. SO HERE AGAIN, MIRAMAR WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD A POLICY ESTABLISHED IN THEIR RESOLUTION THAT ALLOWED THEM TO SWAP OUT THEIR SOUTHWEST 84TH PROJECT FOR THEIR PRIORITY, WHICH IS THE HONEY HILL ROAD PROJECT.

AND WITH THAT, THAT'S THE FINAL RANKING.

SO HERE IS A FINAL LIST OF PROJECTS.

YOU CAN SEE THE BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS AND THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. THE TOTAL COST IS ABOUT $26.6 MILLION REQUESTED.

SO LAST THING I WANNA TALK ABOUT IS CSLIP MOVING FORWARD.

THERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS I WANT TO TALK ABOUT.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHANGES IS WITH CSLIP IS WITH THE NEW MTP.

THERE'S BEEN A NEW ESTABLISHMENT OF FUNDS FOR OUR DIFFERENT PROGRAMS. CSLIP WAS ESSENTIALLY RECEIVING ALMOST ALL OF OUR SU DOLLARS.

AND NOW WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT OF ALL THESE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS, SOME OF WHICH EXISTED BEFORE, JUST DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF MONEY ASSIGNED TO IT AND OTHERS ARE BRAND NEW.

CSLIP HERE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO ABOUT 20 PERCENT OF THE SU DOLLARS, SO IT'S GOING FROM ESSENTIALLY AROUND A HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE SU DOWN TO ABOUT 20 PERCENT.

THAT BEING SAID, THE OVERALL POT OF FUNDS ARE STILL THERE.

IT'S JUST BEING ESSENTIALLY SPLIT UP BETWEEN THESE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS. SO THERE'S A COUPLE MORE ITEMS HERE.

SO PENDING THE BOARD APPROVAL, APPLICATIONS WILL BE VETTED BY THE MPO AND DOT STAFF.

PART OF THAT VETTING PROCESS CONTAINS SITE VISITS , SO WE'LL BE GOING OUT SOMETIME IN THE SPRING OR SUMMER, MOST LIKELY PROBABLY TOWARDS MORE OF THE SPRING TO GO OUT AND VISIT THE PROJECTS , TAKE A LOOK AT THEM.

WE ENCOURAGE OUR APPLICANTS TO GO OUT WITH US SO THAT WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE PROJECT WHILE WE'RE OUT THERE. AND THEN AFTER THAT, WE'LL BE DOING SOME ONE ON ONE DISCUSSIONS FOLLOWING THAT. THE NEXT IS THE, I'M SORRY, THE NEXT CYCLE OF CSLIP, CYCLE FIVE, IS

[00:10:03]

WE ALWAYS ENCOURAGE OUR AGENCIES TO START EARLY THAT WAY YOU CAN HAVE ALL THE DOCUMENTS READY FOR WHEN YOU DO SUBMIT.

AND THEN JUST A REMINDER THAT PARTNER RESOLUTIONS, DOT LETTERS OF SUPPORT , ESSENTIALLY, IF YOU'RE WORKING OUTSIDE OF YOU RIGHT OF WAY OR YOU R MUNICIPALITY, IT TAKES SOME TIME TO GET ALL THE RIGHT DOCUMENTATION READY.

SO WE DEFINITELY RECOMMEND STARTING EARLY, LIKE I SAID.

AND LAST THING HERE IS JUST THAT THE UPDATES TO CSLIP.

I'LL BE POSTING ANY KIND OF UPDATES ON THE SETS OF WEBSITE, SO YOU CAN FOLLOW THAT LINK THERE. THERE'S LIKE A BULLETED LIST OF UPDATES ON THE FRONT PAGE AND THEN ALL THE DOCUMENTATION IS ALL THERE.

SO IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN THE PROGRAM OR APPLYING, ALL THAT INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE.

AND THEN IF YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, YOU CAN ALWAYS REACH OUT TO ME.

I HAVE MY E-MAIL ON THE SCREEN, BUT YOU CAN GIVE ME A CALL AS WELL AND I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANYTHING. ONE MORE THING THAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT RELATES TO CSLIP IS THAT WE RECEIVED SOME NEW DIRECTION FROM DOT.

SO ESSENTIALLY DOT IS GOING TO BE FOCUSING MORE ON STATE SYSTEM ROADWAYS AND THEY WILL BE, I GUESS, RETRACTING THEIR FOCUS AWAY FROM LOCAL ROADWAYS.

SO ESSENTIALLY WHAT THAT MEANS IS, AT LEAST AS IT PERTAINS TO CSLIP , DOT WILL NO LONGER BE MANAGING ANY CSLIP PROJECTS, ANY FUTURE CSLIP PROJECTS, INCLUDING THIS NEW CYCLE.

SO THE WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT ALL FUTURE C SLIP PROJECTS WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE LAP PROCESS. WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE UNDERSTAND THAT LAP, ESPECIALLY FOR OUR SMALLER AGENCIES, CAN BE KIND OF A TEDIOUS OR EVEN A VERY, ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TASK.

SO WE ARE WORKING WITH THE DEPARTMENT RIGHT NOW TO WORK OUT AN ALTERNATIVE DELIVERY MECHANISM. DON'T HAVE A LOT OF INFORMATION RIGHT NOW, BUT WE JUST WANT TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT THAT IS IN THE WORKS.

SO WITH THAT, I WILL TAKE ANY ANY QUESTIONS.

JONATHAN ROBERSON FIRST IN LINE.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. THANKS, CONNOR.

JUST A QUESTION SOMEWHAT RELATED TO THIS, AND I'M NOT SURE IF YOU CAN ANSWER THIS OR THIS HAS BEEN ADDRESSED ELSEWHERE, BUT IS THERE ANYTHING YOU'RE SEEN OR ANY OFFICIAL PROCESS FOR SOME OF THESE PROJECTS THAT ARE LOWER ON THE LIST TO GO TOWARDS THE SURTAX EFFORT? CAN THEY, WILL THEY? I'M SORRY I'M NOT CLOSE TO THAT, BUT I'M WONDERING IF THERE'S FOLLOW UP OR KIND OF REBOUNDING OR WHAT YOU'RE SEEING WITH THAT KIND OF AS A NEW PROGRAM.

SO I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF INFORMATION ON THAT.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYBODY FROM THE SURTAX TEAM'S HERE.

WHAT I CAN SAY IS THAT THE CSLIP PROJECTS THAT AREN'T FUNDED AREN'T GOING TO DIRECTLY FEED INTO THE SURTAX.

WHATEVER IS IN THE SURTAX PLAN NOW IS WHAT'S BEING FUNDED.

AT SOME POINT, I THINK MIKE'S GOING TO TOUCH ON IT , THEY ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT MAYBE SWAPPING PROJECTS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

BUT MIKE, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO ADD ON TO THAT.

THAT'S BEEN A QUESTION THAT WE'VE GOTTEN FROM SEVERAL , SO THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME WE'VE HEARD IT. WE DO HAVE A SURTAX TEAM THAT'S HERE.

WE'RE ALSO WORKING DIRECTLY WITH THE COUNTY ON DEVELOPING A PROGRAM, SUBMITTING THE FIRST RANKING OF PROJECTS, BUT SWAPPING OR BEING ABLE TO APPLY FUNDS TO AN EXISTING PROJECT.

THAT'S SOMETHING IN THE WORKS THAT WE'LL WORK OUT WITH OUR COUNTY PARTNERS, TOO.

THERE IS OPPORTUNITIES TO DO THAT.

WE JUST DON'T HAVE ALL THE DETAILS YET.

OKAY. THANK YOU. THAT WAS GOOD.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. JUST TO RECONFIRM , SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT THE CYCLE FOUR IS GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH A LAP PROCESS? SO RIGHT NOW, WE'RE JUST SETTING THE EXPECTATION THAT IT LOOKS LIKE DOT IS MOVING AWAY FROM MANAGING LOCAL PROJECTS.

WHAT THAT MEANS RIGHT NOW IS THAT, YES, THEY'D HAVE TO GO THROUGH SOME FORM OF LAP PROCESS. BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT A WAY THAT THE LOCAL AGENCY ITSELF WOULDN'T HAVE TO NECESSARILY MANAGE THAT LAP.

WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF DETAILS RIGHT NOW, BUT ESSENTIALLY YES.

AND THAT'LL COME OUT LATER , THAT INFORMATION? YEAH, SO WE'RE WORKING WITH DOT RIGHT NOW.

WE'RE HOPING IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS MAYBE WE'LL HAVE SOME MORE INFORMATION THAT WE CAN PROVIDE TO YOU , BUT YEAH.

OKAY. AND MY SECOND QUESTION FOR CONFIRMATION IS IS THAT AS THIS GOES THROUGH THE PROCESS AND GETS FUNDED, WHEN ARE THOSE FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR T HESE PROJECTS? SO THE DESIGN FUNDS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THE NEW FIFTH YEAR OF THE TIP.

THAT BEING SAID, I KNOW WITH LAP THERE'S A LITTLE BIT MORE FLEXIBILITY, ESPECIALLY IF THE CITY IS PAYING FOR THE DESIGN PHASE ITSELF.

WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO PROGRAM THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE IN THE NEW FIFTH YEAR.

[00:15:06]

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR. KAREN WARFEL. I KNOW YOU MENTIONED THE WHOLE THE DESIGN IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MUNICIPALITY DURING LAP CURRENTLY.

IS THAT BEING LOOKED AT IN THE FUTURE PROGRAM? I BELIEVE IT'S BEING LOOKED AT, BUT RIGHT NOW I WOULD JUST ASSUME THAT LAP IS STILL GOING TO BE THE DESIGN OF THE LAP PROJECT WOULD STILL BE AT THE COST OF THE MUNICIPALITY.

WE ARE LOOKING AT DIFFERENT OPTIONS.

AGAIN, I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF DETAILS RIGHT NOW, BUT YEAH .

SO THIS ROUND WILL BE LIKE GOING BACK TO THE OLD TAP WHERE THE CITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT COST? YES AND NO.

THESE PROJECTS ARE GOING TO BE FIVE YEARS OUT, SO HOPEFULLY BY THE TIME THAT THESE ARE COMING THROUGH WE'LL HAVE A PROCESS ESTABLISHED.

SO WE DO HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF TIME, B UT YEAH .

OKAY, THANK YOU. SO CONNOR, OF THE FIFTH YEAR WOULD BE '26, '27? THE NEXT TIP?. YES , SO THEY'D BE PROGRAM FOR, YEAH, THE '21.

SO YEAH , '26.

I HAVE ONE COMMENT HERE, BUT THE CORAL SPRINGS PROJECT, A VERY FINE PROJECT I MUST SAY, BUT IT IS MISLABELED AS CORAL SPRINGS, THAT SHOULD BE CORAL HILLS DRIVE.

OH, IS IT? OKAY. I HOPE I DIDN'T PUT THAT IN THE APPLICATION, BUT IT IS CORAL HILLS DRIVE. OK. [LAUGHTER]. THAT'S A MUCH BETTER STREET.

IT'S A CITY STREET .

CORAL SPRINGS IS COUNTY. YOU'D MENTIONED THAT FIVE, I GUESS FROM MY EXPERIENCE, THAT THIS IS A RELATIVELY SMALLER NUMBER OF PROJECTS THAT WERE SUBMITTED THIS YEAR.

PERHAPS BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER FUNDING SOURCES, SURTAX BEING ONE, WITH A LITTLE DIFFERENT TIME FRAME ON THEM. BUT I'M JUST WONDERING IF YOU COULD BRIEFLY DESCRIBE WHY THOSE FIVE , WHAT TOSSED THOSE FIVE PROJECTS AS BEING INCOMPLETE? WHAT WERE THEIR MAJOR WEAKNESSES THAT MAYBE HELP PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE? SO I WON'T MENTION ANY NAMES. PLEASE, NO.

BUT TWO OF THE APPLICATIONS, THEY DIDN'T HAVE RESOLUTIONS IN TIME FOR THE APPLICATION DUE DATE. ONE APPLICATION DIDN'T HAVE ANY PUBLIC SUPPORT.

ANOTHER DID NOT HAVE THE COST ESTIMATE FORM .

THAT'S FOUR, I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER THE FIFTH ONE.

WELL, THAT'S PRETTY GOOD. YEAH. OH, THE THE LAST ONE WAS THEY WERE PROPOSING IMPROVEMENTS IN PRIVATE PROPERTY, WHICH WE CAN'T DO WITH CSLIP.

SO I GUESS MY ONLY COMMENT WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, WITH A SURTAX THEY CAME OUT WITH A PRIORITIZED LIST, MPO SURTAX PEOPLE DID .

AND THERE ARE, FOR INSTANCE, PLANNING DOLLARS, DESIGN DOLLARS AND CONSTRUCTION DOLLARS THAT'D BE PHASED IN OVER TIME.

A COMMENT MIGHT BE WHETHER YOU COULD USE IN YOUR PLANNING PHASE OR DESIGN PHASE I N ORDER TO ADVANCE A LAP PROJECT INTO THE FIFTH YEAR.

SO YOU COULD USE SURTAX MONEY TO DO THE DESIGN, BUT NOT USE SURTAX MONEY TO FUND IT, T HE CONSTRUCTION. SEEMS LIKE THAT COULD BE POSSIBLE AND MAYBE HELP CITIES OVERCOME THE COSTS OF DOING THE DESIGN AND ADVANCE THAT LAP PROJECT TO A QUICKER CONSTRUCTION TIMELINE.

I'D HOPE THAT COULD HAPPEN , BUT THAT WOULD BE A SUGGESTION I GUESS.

PEOPLE SHOULD BE OPEN MINDED TO THAT.

ANY MORE QUESTIONS? I HAVE ONE, PETE SCHWARZ.

THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

YOUR CORAL SPRINGS PROJECT IS A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT, BUT YOU'LL SEE THE ITEM NUMBER ONE ON THE RANKING LIST IS THE CITY OF OAKLAND PARK .

THEREFORE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO PASS THE ITEM.

[LAUGHTER]. I WOULD SECOND IT, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO NOW.

[LAUGHTER].

CONNOR, I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU A QUESTION ALSO.

I'LL WAIT 'TIL THE VOTING'S DONE. OK. GUESS I SHOULD TURN THAT ON.

NOTHING'S COMING UP YET? I'LL ASK YOU.

20 PERCENT OF THE CSLIP , HOW MUCH DOES THAT COME OUT TO, MORE THAN 26 MILLION? NOT QUITE. SO WE'VE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO DO ROUGH ESTIMATES.

IT'S GONNA BE SOMEWHERE IN THE BALLPARK OF POTENTIALLY, AGAIN NOTHING'S BEEN ALLOCATED YET, BUT POTENTIALLY SIX TO POTENTIALLY EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS DEPENDING ON WHAT POTS WE'RE ABLE TO LEVERAGE.

WE'RE ALSO LOOKING AT ADDITIONAL FUNDING POTS.

WE STILL HAVE THE TAP DOLLARS THAT ARE AVAILABLE, WHICH IS ABOUT THREE OR FOUR.

SO, YEAH. WE'RE NOT SURE YET [INAUDIBLE].

OK. SO ALL THOSE 26 MILLION PROJECTS WON'T GET FUNDED? THAT IS MOST LIKELY.

SO THIS ISN'T HAPPENING.

ARE WE GOING TO DO A ROLL CALL, OR HOW ARE WE GOING TO? I HAVE IT READY UP ON MY SIDE.

[00:20:01]

AND I AM READY TO VOTE WHEN YOU ARE CHAIR.

WE'RE READY. ALL RIGHT.

WE'RE READY TO GO. YESBECK.

IT'S PASSED 30 TO 1.

THIRTY TO WHAT? 1 NON-VOTE, SO.

OK. ALL RIGHT.

W ELL, THANK YOU. CAN WE HAVE A NON-VOTE? THE VOTE'S ALREADY BEEN CLOSED , BUT WE'LL MAKE SURE TO ADD IT IN THE MINUTES.

WE HAVE ANOTHER [INAUDIBLE]. [LAUGHTER]. CAN WE MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ACTION ITEM?

[2. MOTION TO RECOMMEND BROWARD MPO APPROVE the Draft Fiscal Year (FY) 2020/21 - FY 2021/22 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) for Submittal to Funding Agencies for Review]

YES. THANK YOU, MR. CHAIR.

MEMBERS OF THE TAC, GOOD AFTERNOON.

CARL EMA, BROWARD MPO STAFF.

JUST GIVE ME A SECOND TO GET SET UP HERE.

I'M HERE WITH REALLY PART TWO OF OUR UPWP APPROVAL PROCESS.

LAST TIME YOU MIGHT REMEMBER, WE CAME TO YOU AND INTRODUCED UPWP, ALSO KNOWN AS OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND BUDGET.

JUST ONE SECOND. WE ALSO PROVIDED SOME INFORMATION ON THE CALL FOR PLANS AND STUDIES THAT WE DO AS PART OF EVERY UPWP UPDATE PROCESS.

SO WE WANT TO JUST QUICKLY THANK YOU ALL FOR THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO THAT.

AS USUAL, WE USED THE INFORMATION WE GET THERE TO KIND OF CHECK OURSELVES, MAKE SURE THAT OUR PLANNING EFFORTS ARE STILL.

[INAUDIBLE]. [LAUGHTER]. CARL. YOU HAVE TO AD LIB.

[LAUGHTER]. THIS IS A GOOD ONE.

YOU DIDN'T HAVE A PRESENTATION ANYWAY DID YOU? [LAUGHTER]. IT'S ALL RIGHT.

WE'RE WAY AHEAD OF SCHEDULE.

OK. I'M GOING TO TRY THIS ONE.

LET'S TRY TO GET OUT OF THIS HERE.

OH.

THAT'S FINE, YEAH. LET ME FIGURE THIS OUT HERE.

I'LL START A LITTLE BIT TO INTRODUCE.

SO CARL HAD INTRODUCED IT AT THE LAST TAC MEETING, AND HE'S GOING TO GIVE A SUMMARY THIS MEETING. BUT IF HOPEFULLY YOU ALL HAD A CHANCE TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE DRAFT UPWP , IT'S UP ON OUR WEBSITE. A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE NOTICED , MAYBE NOT.

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WERE DIRECTED BY THE STATE IS TO KIND OF REDUCE THE NUMBER OF TASKS AND HOPEFULLY STREAMLINE A LITTLE BIT.

IT'S HARD TO DO IT BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT THE MPO DOES.

SO IT'S HARD TO GET IT DOWN TO, YOU KNOW, JUST A FEW SIMPLE TASKS , SO WE DID OUR BEST .

WE'RE DOWN TO SIX TASKS, FIVE MAJOR ONES PERTAINING DIRECTLY TO THE MPO.

AND THEN WE HAVE A SIXTH TASK THAT RELATES TO OTHER SERVICES THAT WE PROVIDE TO OTHER AGENCIES AND COLLECT FUNDING FOR THOSE SERVICES.

SO LIKE WE HAVE AN INTER-LOCAL AGREEMENT FOR SURTAX, WE HAVE AN INTER-LOCAL AGREEMENT FOR CITY OF FORT LAUDERDALE , THEN WE ALSO HAVE LOCAL FUNDS THAT WE COLLECT FOR ADVOCACY PURPOSES. SO THAT'S KIND OF WHAT TASK 6 IS.

THAT'S KIND OF ROLLED UP INTO ALL THAT.

THE FEDS WANT TO SEE ALL THE FUNDING THAT WE GOT AND ALL THE EFFORTS THAT WE DO, BUT WE HAVE TO KEEP THE FUNDING SEPARATE.

SO IT'S A SEPARATE TASK AND IT'S KIND OF DIVIDED OUT AND WE CAN GO OVER THAT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. THE BIG THING IS, ARE YOU GONNA GET UP OR NOW? OH, NO, I'M GOOD TO GO. OKAY. WHEN YOU'RE READY.

SO CARL IS GONNA GIVE YOU KIND OF A SUMMARY.

WELL, MAYBE NOT .

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE IN THE UPWP IS IT'S DIVIDED INTO SECTIONS LIKE YOU'VE ALWAYS SEEN. THE FIRST SECTION IS REALLY THE INTRODUCTION OF IT.

[00:25:03]

SO I'M SORT OF DOING CARL'S PRESENTATION AND I DON'T WANT TO DO IT ALL BECAUSE I COULD TALK A LOT. SO I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO CARL.

THANK YOU, MIKE. YES. I APPRECIATE THE SAVE T HERE.

YOU PREPARE FOR THESE THINGS, BUT THEY ALL SEEM TO GO WRONG AT THE RIGHT MOMENT, OF COURSE. THIS IS THE DRAFT UPWP , FINALLY.

IF YOU GO, I KNOW IT'S IN YOUR AGENDA PACKETS, BUT IF YOU GO THROUGH OUR WEBSITE, JUST TO LET YOU ALL KNOW, IT'S GONNA BE UNDER WHAT WE DO.

AND HERE UNDER CORE PRODUCTS, UPWP, YOU CAN CLICK IT HERE AND YOU'LL FIND IT THERE.

IT'LL BE MARKED DRAFT FOR REVIEW .

SO THIS IS THE DOCUMENT, LOOKS SIMILAR TO WHAT WE'VE HAD IN THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS, LIKE FORMATTING-WISE AND STYLE-WISE.

101 PAGES, I'M NOT GONNA SPEND TIME ON EACH ONE.

I'M JUST GONNA GO QUICKLY THROUGH AND KIND OF INTRODUCE SOME OF THE MORE IMPORTANT SECTIONS. SO JUST MOVING RIGHT ALONG, GET THROUGH THE TABLE OF CONTENTS HERE.

THE FIRST SECTION IS GONNA BE ACRONYMS. NOT VERY USEFUL MAYBE FOR THIS GROUP.

I KNOW AS PLANNERS AND ENGINEERS YOU'RE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH MOST OF THESE, BUT FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC AND OUR CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE, THIS IS GONNA BE VERY USEFUL FOR THEM. AS THEY GO THROUGH THE DOCUMENT T HEY'LL BE ABLE TO REFER FOR BACK.

COST ANALYSIS STATEMENT , THIS COMES FROM DOT AT A LATER DATE.

INTRODUCTION, THIS IS WHERE YOU'LL HAVE A HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW OF WHAT YOU'RE GONNA BE SEEING IN THE DOCUMENT.

YOU GET A DEFINITION OF THE UPWP HERE.

YOU'VE GOT OUR PLANNING AREA MARKED OUT THERE ON THE MAP.

YOU HAVE A LITTLE DESCRIPTION BASICALLY OF EACH TASK THAT WE HAVE CONTAINED WITHIN THE UPWP. SO AS MIKE HAD MENTIONED, THERE'S A LOT OF STREAMLINING THAT'S GONE ON.

WE HAD 13 , WE'RE NOW DOWN TO SIX.

SO NOT AS MUCH TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH, AND WE'LL GET MORE INTO THAT AS WE GET DOWN TO THE TASKS. WE TALK ABOUT OUR PLANNING PRIORITIES FOR THE MPO.

WE ALSO GO INTO THE PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PROCESS FOR THIS PARTICULAR DOCUMENT.

WE GET THROUGH THE FAST ACT PLANNING FACTORS AND HOW OUR TASKS ADDRESS THEM.

ALSO DO THE SAME THING FOR THE STATE PLANNING EMPHASIS AREAS THAT WE GET FROM DOT EACH YEAR , AND MIKE YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE GRABBING YOUR MIC .

I WANT TO MENTION THOSE BECAUSE I THINK THESE ARE VERY GOOD PLANNING EMPHASIS AREAS.

NOT THAT THAT WE HAVEN'T HAD BAD ONES IN THE PAST, BUT I THINK THESE ARE REALLY GOOD.

SO WE CAN GET THEM THROUGH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AND ALSO THROUGH THE STATE.

THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT PROVIDING ANY PLANNING EMPHASIS AREAS.

HOWEVER, THE STATE HAS.

THERE IS FOUR OF THEM, SAFETY, SYSTEM CONNECTIVITY, RESILIENCY, AND THEN AUTOMATED CONNECTED VEHICLES.

I THINK ALL OF YOU ARE PROBABLY LOOKING AROUND, THOSE ARE PROBABLY THE BIG HOT TOPICS THAT WE REALLY SHOULD BE ADDRESSING.

SO YOU'LL SEE, AS CARL GOES THROUGH THIS, HOW WE'VE ADDRESSED IT.

AND IT ALMOST APPLIES TO EVERY SINGLE TASK OF WHAT WE DO , AND WE'RE ALSO ENCOURAGING, THROUGH THAT TASK 6, WHILE WE GET LOCAL FUNDS, WE'D LIKE TO ALSO SEE SOME OF THESE, YOU KNOW, RAISE TO THE TOP.

EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT USING LOCAL FUNDS, IT MIGHT BE GOOD TO SHOW THAT WE'RE ADDRESSING SOME OF THESE ISSUES THROUGH THE LOCAL DOLLARS THAT WE RECEIVE. THAT'S ALL I WANTED TO SAY ON THAT.

ALL RIGHT. THANKS, MIKE.

YEAH, YOU CAN SEE A CHART HERE HOW WE KIND OF SHOW THAT WE DO ADDRESS EACH EMPHASIS AREA, AND YOU'LL SEE THAT THROUGHOUT THE TASK.

WE KIND OF SHOW WHICH ACTIVITIES ARE ADDRESSING THEM.

NEXT SECTION, SECTION FOUR, ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT.

THIS JUST TALKS ABOUT HOW THE MPO BOARD IS MADE UP, TALKS ABOUT ITS SUBCOMMITTEES.

HERE YOU HAVE ALL THE MUNICIPALITIES AND WHO'S A PRIMARY MEMBER, WHO'S AN ALTERATE MEMBER, ET CETERA. YOU HAVE THE ADVISORY COMMITTEES, HERE YOU ALL ARE, TAC AT THE TOP.

SO IT SHOWS ALL OUR BOARDS AND VARIOUS ADVISORY COMMITTEES.

AGREEMENTS THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE IN EFFECT , OUR BYLAWS, A ND THAT'S ABOUT IT.

THIS IS REALLY THE MEAT OF THE DOCUMENT.

THIS HERE, THE SECTION 5 WORK PROGRAM TASK S.

REALLY EVERYTHING THAT MPO STAFF DOES ON A DAILY BASIS IS CONTAINED WITHIN THIS SECTION IN SOME FORM. SO I'LL JUST JUMP RIGHT INTO THE FIRST TASK AND KIND OF SHOW YOU HOW THEY'RE STRUCTURED. SO THIS IS TASK ONE, UPWP AND ORGANIZATION ADMINISTRATION.

THIS COVERS ALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE FUNCTIONS OF THE MPO AND THESE ARE WHAT WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR. SO YOU HAVE PURPOSE HERE AT THE TOP.

[00:30:03]

YOU KEEP GOING INTO THE NEXT TABLE CONTAINS THE PREVIOUS MAJOR ACTIVITIES AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS THAT WE COMPLETED DURING THE PREVIOUS UPWP CYCLE, AND WORK PRODUCT HERE IS GOING TO BE FOR THE UPCOMING CYCLE, WHAT WE PLAN ON DOING AND COMPLETING .

PAST ALL THAT YOU GET INTO THE FINANCIAL TABLES.

THIS SHOWS YOU FOR EACH ACTIVITY THAT WE HAVE, HOW MUCH IS ALLOCATED FOR THAT ACTIVITY AND WHERE IT'S COMING FROM.

SO IS IT FHWA FUNDS, FTA, DOT, IS IT LOCAL? THAT'S ALL HERE, AS WELL AS YOU'LL SEE IN THE NEXT PAGE SOME DESCRIPTIONS FOR EACH ACTIVITY THERE. SO EACH TASK IS SET UP LIKE THIS.

THEY'RE IDENTICAL.

SO THAT WAS TASK ONE, ADMINISTRATION.

TASK TWO , WE'VE GOT OUR DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS THAT WE DO, AND I'LL JUST SKIP THROUGH. TASK 3 IS GONNA BE OUR METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLAN OR LONG RANGE PLANNING EFFORTS. ALSO, THAT CONTAINS OUR NOW REGIONAL EFFORTS THAT WE COLLABORATE WITH MIAMI-DADE AND PALM BEACH ON AS WELL AS OUR FREIGHT PLANNING.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE, SOME OF THESE THINGS WERE SEPARATED OUT IN THE PAST.

NOW THEY'RE BEING GROUPED TOGETHER AND COMBINED WHERE IT MAKES SENSE TO DO SO.

THE NEXT STEP IS GOING TO BE THE COMPLETE STREETS, TRANSIT AND CONGESTION MANAGEMENT, THAT'S TASK FOUR, AND TASK FIVE WILL BE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM.

TASK SIX, AS MIKE HAD MENTIONED, IS A NEW TASK FOR US.

WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH FHWA AND THEY'VE PROVIDED SOME FEEDBACK.

GEEZ, IF I EVER GET TO IT .

THEY'VE BEEN PROVIDING FEEDBACK AND INDICATING THAT THEY'D LIKE US TO INCLUDE THESE NEW SERVICES THAT WE'RE PROVIDING FOR BROWARD COUNTY THROUGH THIS THROUGH TAX PRIORITIZATION AND SOME OF THE MUNICIPALITIES.

THESE ARE ALL LOCALLY FUNDED AND THEY DO WANT US TO SHOW IT, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE KIND OF SEPARATED OUT. SO OUR SOLUTION WAS CREATE A NEW TASK AND HOUSE ALL OF THAT HERE.

SO THAT'S ALL THOSE SERVICES ARE GONNA BE HERE IN THIS NEW TASK SIX.

AND THAT'S REALLY IT. AS YOU CAN SEE, A LOT EASIER TO GET THROUGH .

IF THIS WASTHE OLD UPWP I THINK MY FINGER WOULD BE TIRED OF HOLDING DOWN THIS BUTTON AT THIS TIME, SO HOPEFULLY A LITTLE EASIER TO DIGEST AND GO THROUGH FOR OUR PARTNERS AND THE PUBLIC. THAT'S THE INTENT I THINK BEHIND CENTRAL OFFICE TRYING TO PUSH US TO GO FOR THIS MORE STREAMLINED UPWP .

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOOK AT THE REST OF THIS AND YOU'RE JUST LIKE, I WANT TO SEE THE BOTTOM LINE A ND THAT'S IT, I THINK YOU'D SKIP TO THIS SECTION, SECTION 6.

IT'S THE BUSINESS PLAN.

WE DO A FIVE YEAR FUNDING FORECAST.

W E'RE NOT REQUIRED TO DO IT, I BELIEVE, RIGHT, MIKE? BUT WE DO BECAUSE IT GIVES US A GOOD EARLY WARNING OF ANY POTENTIAL FUNDING HURDLES THAT COULD BE COMING AND ALLOWS US TIME TO ADDRESS THEM.

SO JUST A CAVEAT TO THIS PAGE, THIS IS VERY DRAFTY AT THE MOMENT.

WE PRETTY MUCH CAME OUT OF THE OFFICE WORKING ON THIS JUST A SECOND AGO, HAD THIS MEETING, AND THEN WE'RE GONNA GO RIGHT BACK.

SO THERE'S A LOT OF CHECKING AND VERIFICATION THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN ON THE BACK END , AND WE'RE CURRENTLY DOING THAT RIGHT NOW.

THESE SHOULD BE A LOT MORE FINAL BY THE TIME THIS GOES TO THE BOARD IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS, BUT STILL A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE.

ANOTHER THING I JUST WANT TO CALL OUT HERE IS ALSO JUST LIKE THAT TASK 6, WHICH SEPARATES OUT THE LOCAL FUNDS , YOU CAN SEE HERE THIS USED TO BE ONE GIANT TABLE, BUT NOW WE HAVE SEPARATED, IN FACT, INTO THE FEDERAL AND STATE UP TOP HERE AND THEN THE LOCAL FUNDS DOWN BELOW. SO IT'S A LITTLE EASIER TO KEEP TRACK OF WHICH FUNDS WE'RE SPENDING ON WHAT.

AND I DON'T KNOW, MIKE, YOU LEANED IN, I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU HAD SOMETHING TO ADD.

SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CARL HAD MENTIONED, THAT THEY ARE DRAFT FIGURES.

FIRST, THAT THIS IS A DRAFT , SO YOU GET TO SEE IT A SECOND TIME AND THAT COMES BACK IN MAY. I'M SORRY, APRIL.

YOU'LL SEE IT IN APRIL.

THE REASON WHY WE ALWAYS SAY THAT THE NUMBERS ARE DRAFT IS WE DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW THE FINAL WHAT WE WOULD CALL REVENUE OR WHAT'S COMING IN USUALLY A DAY BEFORE THE FISCAL YEAR STARTS. SO USUALLY JUNE, YOU KNOW, 29TH, 30TH AND IN SOME CASES IT COMES AFTER THAT, WHICH IS UNFORTUNATE, BUT THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT HAPPENS.

SO WE DON'T HAVE THE EXACT NUMBERS.

THEY'RE ALL JUST ESTIMATES RIGHT NOW.

AND AS WE GET CLOSER AND WE KNOW WHAT OUR SPEND IS GOING TO BE THIS YEAR , WE MIGHT HAVE TO CHANGE A LITTLE BIT, DEPENDING ON WHAT WE CALL AS DEOBLIGATING FUNDS FROM THIS YEAR TO BE USED IN THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR.

THAT COULD CHANGE DEPENDING ON WHAT THE SPENDING RATE IS.

SO THERE'S ALWAYS SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FIGURES, BUT YOU'LL NEVER SEE BIG WHOLESALE CHANGES TO THE FIGURES BECAUSE WE'RE KIND OF SET.

YOU KNOW, IT COULD BE 10,000 HERE, ANOTHER 10,000 THERE, AND THEN THEY BALANCE IT OUT.

AND YOU WOULDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT ANYTHING HAS REALLY CHANGED HERE , BUT THAT'S JUST COMMON WITH A UPWP.

WE WON'T GET OUR FINAL FIGURES UNTIL JUST BEFORE THE FISCAL YEAR STARTS.

[00:35:01]

IT'S SOMETHING WHEN WE TAKE IT THROUGH THE MPO BOARD THAT THEY ALLOW US TO MAKE AMENDMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS TO THE UPWP AS LONG AS WE BRING IT BACK AND NOTIFY THEM OF THE CHANGES .

BECAUSE WE KIND OF HAVE TO REACT VERY QUICKLY BECAUSE WE DON'T NECESSARILY GET OUR REIMBURSEMENTS IF THE FIGURES DON'T JIVE EXACTLY WITH WHAT THE LATEST FIGURES ARE.

SO WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO MAKE THOSE CHANGES VERY QUICKLY SO THAT WE CAN GET OUR REIMBURSEMENTS WITH, WE HOPE 15 DAYS, BUT USUALLY IT'S LONGER THAN THAT.

THANK YOU CARL AND MIKE .

THIS IS OPEN FOR ANY DISCUSSION.

IF ANYBODY HAS SOMETHING TO SAY, QUESTIONS, COMMENTS.

MR. KARL KENNEDY. I HAD ONE QUESTION ON THE TASK ONE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2021.

IT ALSO APPEARS IN TABLE 1 A.

THERE'S A CONTINGENCY OF ABOUT HALF A MILLION DOLLARS , PAGE TWENTY NINE OR PAGE SEVENTY ONE. IT DOESN'T OCCUR IN ANY OF THE OTHER YEARS.

OK. GOOD OBSERVATION.

SO WHAT THAT IS, IS THAT WE HAVE A RESERVE FUND THAT'S IN WE KEEP IT IN OUR BANK.

IT'S LIKE A RAINY DAY FUND , AND SOMETIMES WE MIGHT HAVE TO DIVE INTO IT.

LUCKILY, WE HAVEN'T HAD TO.

BUT IT'S UNRESTRICTED FUNDS THAT WE'VE ACCUMULATED OVER SEVERAL YEARS.

IT'S NEVER REALLY USED FOR ANY OF THE UPWP TASKS.

IT'S JUST SHOWN AS WE HAVE IT AVAILABLE, BUT WE DON'T APPLY IT.

SO THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT SEEN THROUGHOUT THE OTHER TABLES OR EVEN THROUGH THE SUMMARY TABLE. IT'S ONLY NOTED AT THE BOTTOM.

IT'S NOT AS PART OF A ROLLOVER OR WHAT WE USED TO SPEND ON PROJECTS.

IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S JUST SET ASIDE.

SO LIKE WHEN WE'VE HAD THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS, WE'VE BEEN LUCKY IT HASN'T REALLY AFFECTED US. BUT IF SOME GO ON FOR LONGER TIMES, WE MIGHT HAVE TO DIVE INTO THOSE RESERVE FUNDS IN ORDER TO FUND THE OPERATIONS OF THE MPO.

SO THAT'S WHAT THAT'S THERE FOR.

NO MORE COMMENTS AROUND HERE.

I DON'T NORMALLY ASK THE PUBLIC, COULD PROBABLY.

YOU CAN. DOES ANYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE HAD COMMENTS ON THE UPWP, THEY MAY ALSO DO THAT NOW. I'M SURE THEY'RE RUNNING UP.

THERE ARE NONE. IT'S SUCH AN INTERESTING TOPIC.

WE CAN GO TO THE VOTE. [LAUGHTER].

THANK YOU. SOMEONE MOVED AND SECONDED.

OK. CURRENTLY WAITING FOR KARL THOMPSON.

OK, BEEN APPROVED, 30 TO 1 VOTE.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU ALL. WE'LL MOVE ON TO NON-ACTION ITEMS, MOBILITY PROJECTS UPDATE ,

[1. Mobility Projects Update]

HOW DOES THIS THING WORK? DOES THIS? THAT MOVES IT FORWARD? IT'S THIS, OKAY. O H.

HELLO EVERYONE. MY NAME IS FAZEL QURESHI.

I'M THE MOBILITY PROJECTS PROJECT MANAGER FROM THE MPO.

I WORK ON THE SAME MOBILITY TEAM AS RICARDO GUTIERREZ , AND TODAY I'M GOING TO BE PRESENTING A MOBILITY PROJECTS UPDATE FOR ALL MOBILITY PROJECTS AS OF MAY OF 2019.

THE FIRST THING TO UNDERSTAND IS BEFORE I BEGIN THIS PRESENTATION IS HOW THESE PROJECTS ARE IMPLEMENTED. SO FIRST WITH A LOT OF COLLABORATION WITH THE LOCAL MUNICIPALITIES, WE [INAUDIBLE] OTHER PROJECTS.

RIGHT NOW WE USE A COMPLETE STREETS MASTER PLAN .

AND ONCE A PROJECTS ARE PROGRAM READY AND FDOT PROGRAMS IT, AS LONG AS IT'S ON ONE OF OUR PRIORITY LISTS, IT GETS PROGRAMMED IN THE FIFTH YEAR, AND THEN IT GOES THROUGH A DESIGN,

[00:40:03]

AND THEN ONCE A DESIGN IS COMPLETE, WHICH IS WHAT WE CALL THE PRODUCTION DA TE, THE PROJECT GOES AND GETS LED TO A CONTRACTOR, WHICH IS JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR BEING AWARDED .

THEN ONCE THE PROJECT IS AWARDED THEN ABOUT FIVE MONTHS LATER, THEN IT GOES THROUGH CONSTRUCTION. THEN IF [INAUDIBLE] CONSTRUCTION AND DEPENDING UPON THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROJECT AND THE TYPE OF WORK [INAUDIBLE] SOME PROJECTS ARE 200 DAYS, SOME PROJECTS LAST TWO YEARS, IT JUST REALLY DEPENDS.

AND ONCE THE PROJECT IS COMPLETED, THERE'S ALWAYS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR A RIBBON CUTTING DEPENDING UPON THE LOCAL MUNICIPALITY'S RESOURCES THAT ARE AVAILABLE.

AND THEN SOMETIMES YOU CAN HELP WITH THE COORDINATION OF THOSE.

SO AS OF MAY OF 2019, THERE HAS BEEN NINE PROJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN COMPLETED IN CONSTRUCTIO N.

ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS THAT I'D LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT IS THE HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT, WHICH IS THE PROJECT THAT WON A AWARD AT THE SAFE STREET SUMMIT THIS YEAR. LIKE A LOT OF THESE PROJECTS HAVE HAVE DIFFERENT SEGMENTS.

SO AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE TABLE, THERE'S SOME PROJECTS THAT ARE ADJACENT TO EACH OTHER THAT HAVE THE SAME COLOR AND THERE'S OTHER PROJECTS THAT ARE THAT HAVE DIFFERENT COLORS THAT ARE RIGHT BEHIND OR ABOVE OR BELOW THEM.

SO WHAT THAT SHOWS IS ALL THE PROJECTS THAT ARE GROUPED TOGETHER HAVE THE SAME COLOR AND T HOSE ARE ALL JUST DIFFERENT SEGMENTS IN THE SAME PROJECT.

SO NOW I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT THE PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE PROGRAMMED COMING UP THAT HAVE NOT REACHED THE DESIGN OR CONSTRUCTION PHASE AS OF YET.

CURRENTLY WE HAVE 11 PROJECTS.

NINE OF THOSE PROJECTS CAME FROM OUR TRANSIT CORRIDOR STUDIES THAT THAT FDOT LED.

ONE PROJECT THAT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT REALLY BRIEFLY IS, FOR INSTANCE, LIKE THE UNIVERSITY DRIVE PROJECT THAT'S AT THE BOTTOM.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE PRODUCTION DATE IS WHEN THE DESIGN IS SUPPOSED COMPLETED.

AND IN THE LETTING DATE IS SHOWN , BUT ALL THOSE DATES CAN BE MOVED DEPENDING UPON THE OBSTACLES THAT COME DURING THE DESIGN ONCE IT STARTS.

SO CURRENTLY WE HAVE S 17 PROJECTS THAT ARE IN DESIGN.

ALL THE PROJECTS SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY THE END OF FISCAL YEAR OR WILL BE COMPLETED IN 2022. ONE PROJECT THAT'S PRETTY INTERESTING ON THERE IS THE STATE ROAD 7/COPANS ROAD PROJECT THAT EXTENDS FROM STATE ROAD 7 TO LYONS ROAD.

THAT'S GONNA BE THE FIRST PROJECT THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO THE IMPLEMENTATION WITH F DOT TO TRY TO GET A GRADE SEPARATED BIKE LANE, AND THAT GRADE SEPARATED BIKE LANE WE'RE USING OUR COMPLETE STREET GUIDELINES THAT WAS ADOPTED LAST YEAR.

SO HOPEFULLY THAT INNOVATION THAT COMES FROM THAT PROJECT, WE CAN TRY TO PUSH THAT FOR OUR FUTURE PROJECTS. LUCKILY ON THE PROJECT, WE HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY AVAILABLE, BUT HOPEFULLY WE CAN USE THAT PROJECT AS A TEMPLATE FOR TRYING TO PUSH THOSE MORE INNOVATIVE IDEAS THROUGH FDOT.

CURRENTLY, WE HAVE WE HAVE 13 PROJECTS IN CONSTRUCTION.

THE REASON WHY THERE'S TWO SLIDES OF THESE PROJECTS IS A LOT OF THESE PROJECTS HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT SEGMENTS .

THE CONSTRUCTION START DATE IS SHOWN IN THE TABLE , AND THE CONTRACT DAYS W AS THE FDOT ESTIMATE FOR HOW LONG THE CONSTRUCTION WILL TAKE.

BUT THOSE CONTRACT DATES DON'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HOLIDAYS , WEATHER DAYS, IT DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ANY TYPES OF UTILITIES THAT MAY HAVE TO BE RELOCATED IF THEY WEREN'T IDENTIFIED BEFORE.

THE PROSPECT ROAD , THAT'S NEAR THE BOTTOM HALF OF THIS TABLE , IS HOPEFULLY GOING TO BE A SPECIAL COMPLETE STREETS PROJECT BECAUSE FOR MOST OF THAT CORRIDOR WE'RE GONNA HAVE A GREEN BUFFER BIKE LANES THROUGHOUT.

AND THAT PROJECT IS SUPPOSED TO START SOMETIME IN APRIL.

AND THAT'S WHY THE CONSTRUCTION START DATE FOR THAT PROJECT IS BLANK BECAUSE A NOTICE TO PROCEED HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED BY DOT AS OF YET.

SO AS OF MAY OF 2019 WE'VE HAD 52 PROJECTS IN VARIOUS STAGES .

I HAVE PROVIDED THIS SUMMARY OF HOW MUCH CONSTRUCTION FUNDS HAS BEEN ALLOCATED FOR EACH OF THE PROJECTS IN THE DIFFERENT STAGES.

SO FAR, AS THE ADOPTED WORK PROGRAM, WE HAVE $304 MILLION ESTIMATED.

[00:45:02]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION.

WHO CAN I CONTACT TO GET THE GIS LAYERS FOR THAT LAS T MAP YOU JUST SHOWED? SO THAT MAP IS FROM THE COMPLETE STREETS MASTER PLAN.

I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS .

GO BACK ONE SLIDE BECAUSE THIS IS A COMBINATION, RIGHT? OF COMPLETE STREETS MASTER PLAN PROJECTS AS WELL AS TRANSIT CORRIDOR STUDY PROJECTS THAT HAVE ALSO BEEN PRIORITIZED , SO IT'S NOT JUST COMPLET E STREETS MASTER PLAN OR IS IT? NO. SO THESE ARE ALL THE PROJECTS THAT THAT HAVE COME OUT OF EITHER THE TRANSIT CORRIDOR STUDIES OR PROJECTS THAT WERE LABELED MPO PRIORITY PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, MPO MOBILITY PROJECTS AND THE COMPLETE STREET MASTER PLAN PROJECT HOW CAN I GET THIS DATA? WE CAN PROVIDE IT TO YOU.

YOU CAN CONTACT ME AND I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SEND YOU THE SHAPEFILE.

WONDERFUL. THANK YOU. RICHARD TORNESE.

YES. I JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU'VE BEEN COORDINATING AT LEAST SOMEWHAT WITH LIKE THE SURTAX TEAM INTERNALLY OR MAYBE EVEN WITH THE COUNTY SURTAX TEAM, BECAUSE SOME OF THE PROJECTS I'M LOOKING AT HERE, THERE MAY BE SOME OVERLAP.

AT LEAST WE'RE GOING TO BE COMING OUT WITH A FIVE YEAR PLAN IN JULY , SO I WOULD SUGGEST YOU PROBABLY TAKE A LOOK AND WE PROBABLY NEED TO COORDINATE CLOSELY ON THESE SO WE DON'T HAVE OVERLAPS. AND AND, YOU KNOW, IT JUST WOULD MAKE MORE SENSE IF WE CAN GET THAT SCHEDULED THE WAY IT PROBABLY SHOULD BE FOR THE PUBLIC.

SO, YOU KNOW, I'M OFFERING TO BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, SIT DOWN WITH YOU AND YOUR STAFF OR AT LEAST HAVE SOME OF MY STAFF AVAILABLE TO BETTER COORDINATE AND JUST GIVE YOU SOME IDEA OF WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED BECAUSE WE HAVE FIVE YEAR PLAN, BUT WE EVEN HAVE BEYOND THAT .

BUT AT LEAST FOR THE FIVE YEAR PLAN IS PROBABLY MORE IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW.

FOR SURE. YEAH , WE CAN ALWAYS HAVE A MEETING AND DISCUSS THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROJECTS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE IN THAT PROGRAM ONCE IT'S FINALIZED.

I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S FINALIZED YET OR NOT .

NO, [INAUDIBLE]. YEAH. JULY 1ST IS WHEN WE'RE GONNA ROLL IT OUT, BUT RIGHT NOW WE'RE ACTUALLY CLOSE TO AT LEAST WHAT WE KNOW WE THINK WE'RE GONNA ASK FOR.

FOR SURE. WE'RE ALWAYS OPEN TO COLLABORATION.

I MEAN, COLLABORATION IS THE BEST WAY TO TO GET ALL THESE PROJECTS IMPLEMENTED ANYWAYS.

SO, RICHARD, ONE OF THE THINGS ALSO , THE SURTAX THAT THE TEAM THAT'S WORKING HERE HAS BEEN LOOKING AT THE PROJECTS AND [INAUDIBLE].

AND EVEN AS PART OF THE MTP DEVELOPMENT, WE LOOK AT OVERLAP AND WHAT'S GOING ON TO BE ASSURED , BUT THERE MIGHT BE SOME AREAS THAT WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO.

AND WE CERTAINLY WANT TO WORK WITH YOU ALL TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY OTHER OVERLAPS THAT WE MIGHT HAVE MISSED OR THAT MAYBE, BECAUSE WHEN WE ASK ABOUT SWAP OUTS AND STUFF, THAT COULD APPLY TOO. OKAY.

YES. GREAT TO HEAR. YEP, YEP .

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THERE ARE NONE IN QUEUE HERE, SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FAZEL.

AND WE WILL MOVE ONTO THE NEXT NON-ACTION ITEM.

THANK YOU. IT'S A REPORT FROM PARTNER AGENCIES, FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION,

[2. Report from Partner Agencies - Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) - I-595 Arterial Connectivity Study]

GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYONE. MY NAME IS CLAUDIA [INAUDIBLE] WITH THE FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION. I AM THE DEPUTY PROJECT MANAGER FOR THE ARTERIAL CONNECTIVITY STUDY ALONG 595. THE KEY GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO LOOK AT ANY CONGESTION ISSUES ALONG THE ARTERIAL CROSSING 595. TODAY, I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO OUR CONSULTANT PROJECT MANAGER, WINSTON HARRIS, WHO WOULD LIKE TO GIVE YOU MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROJECT.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, CLAUDIA.

I'LL SPEND THE NEXT COUPLE MINUTES JUST GIVING YOU A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE PROJECT, SCOPE OF THE PROJECT, SCHEDULING AND THE INPUTS WE HAVE BEEN GETTING FROM THE COMMUNITY.

OKAY, SO LET'S START WITH THE STUDY AREA.

OK [INAUDIBLE]. SO THE PROJECT IS FOCUSING ON THE ARTERIALS CROSSING 595, THOSE NORTH/SOUTH ARTERIALS ALONG 595 FROM 136TH AVENUE THROUGH TO STATE ROAD 7.

SO WE'RE LOOKING AT 136, FLAMINGO, NOB HILL, PINE ISLAND, UNIVERSITY, AND STATE ROAD 7.

WE'RE GOING APPROXIMATELY A MILE NORTH AND A MILE SOUTH OF 595 , AND ALSO IMPORTANTLY WE'RE LOOKING AT THE GREENWAY THAT RUNS JUST NORTH OF 595.

SO THAT'S THE PROJECT STUDY YOU'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING AT.

THE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES, THIS PROJECT G OT STARTED ABOUT IN OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR.

[00:50:05]

NOTE, 595 WAS IMPROVED SOME YEARS AGO.

THE EXPRESS LANES, [INAUDIBLE] EXPRESS LANES.

SOME PEOPLE ARE RUNNING PRETTY GOOD , BUT IT'S THE ACCESS TO 595 AND MOVING TRAFFIC NORTH AND SOUTH OF 595, WHICH IS A MAIN FOCUS OF THIS PROJECT.

FIRST, WE'VE GOT TO OF COURSE IDENTIF Y THE DEFICIENCIES.

WE'RE WORKING IN COLLABORATION WITH THE KEY STAKEHOLDERS, WANT TO COME UP WITH SOME EFFICIENT, EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS, AND THEY WANT TO TRY TO FIND PLANS FOR IMPLEMENTING THOSE IMPROVEMENTS. OH, OK.

IT'S A PLANNING LEVEL PROJECTS, SO OF COURSE T HIS IS THE FIRST STAGE OF A DOT PROJECT, PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS.

SO TO COME WILL BE THE [INAUDIBLE] PROCESS, DESIGN, RIGHT OF WAY CONSTRUCTION.

SO WE'RE RIGHT AT 5,000 FOOT LEVEL INITIAL PLANNING PROCESS.

NEXT, THE SLIDES WILL IDENTIFY THE PROCESS THAT WE'RE USING TO EVALUATE.

FIRST AND FOREMOST, IDENTIFY ANY DEFICIENCIES, WHICH IS THE CURRENT STATE WE'RE IN.

SO WE SPENT IN THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS MEETING WITH SOME A FEW KEY STAKEHOLDERS, TRYING TO IDENTIFY WHAT'S OUT THERE IN THE FIELD IN TERMS OF WHAT ARE HOT SPOTS, WHERE ARE THE CRASHES HAPPENING, WHAT ARE THE PRIORITY AREAS? WE KNOW IN INTERCHANGES HAVE COME UP A LOT.

WE'RE T RYING TO HAVE THAT PACKAGED AND READY TO GO BY THE END OF NEXT MONTH.

THEN, OF COURSE, IT'S EVALUATING THOSE DEFICIENCIES.

THAT'S WHERE WE PLAN TO HAVE WORKSHOPS WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS, MEETING WITH STAKEHOLDERS, LOOKING AT VARIOUS SOLUTIONS.

IT'S A MULTIMODAL PROJECT , SO WE'RE LOOKING AT NOT JUST HIGHWAY SOLUTIONS, BUT LAND USE SOLUTIONS, TRANSIT SOLUTIONS, ITS SOLUTIONS.

THEN, OF COURSE, THE PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION, T RYING TO PACKAGE THOSE PROJECTS INTO PROJECTS THAT WOULD MOVE UP TO THE NEXT STAGE.

FINDING FUNDING SOURCES, WHETHER THAT BE DOT FUNDING SOURCES, MPO FUNDING SOURCES, STATE FUNDING SOURCES OR FEDERAL FUNDING SOURCES.

AND OF COURSE, OUTREACH WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE ENTIRE PROJECT PROCESS.

AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, IT'S A MULTIMODAL PROJECT.

SO A LOT OF IMPROVEMENTS WILL INVOLVE, OF COURSE, A TRADITIONAL ROADWAY TYPE IMPROVEMENTS, B UT ALSO WE'RE LOOKING AT THE POSSIBILITIES FOR LAND USE CHANGES, LAND USE POLICIES THAT COULD BE SUPPORTING THOSE IMPROVEMENTS.

THE GREENWAY IS A BIG PART OF THIS PROJECT, AND ONE OF [INAUDIBLE] IS TRYING TO IMPROVE SAFETY AND MOVEMENT ALONG THE GREENWAY, ESPECIALLY WHERE IT CROSSES THOSE MAJOR NORTH/SOUTH A RTERIALS.

AND OF COURSE WE HAVE TO LOOK INTO THE FUTURE.

WE KNOW ITS AND TSM&O WILL INFLUENCE FUTURE OPERATIONS , AND SO WE'RE LOOKING AT FUTURE ITS AND TSM&O STRATEGIES THAT CAN BE PREVENTED.

IT'S A TWO YEAR PROCESS.

WE'RE IN THE DATA COLLECTION STAGE, WHICH WILL TAKE US THROUGH TO THE END OF NEXT MONTH.

AFTER THAT, WE'LL FOLLOW UP WITH EVALUATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATION.

WE DO HAVE MEETINGS WITH STAKEHOLDERS NOW.

OF COURSE, YOU GUYS ARE AMONG KEY STAKEHOLDERS.

WE PLAN TO MEET WITH THE CAC GROUP LATER THIS AFTERNOON , AND WE'RE MEET WITH THE MPO BOARD ON THE 12TH OF MARCH I THINK IT IS AND SHOW THE PROCESS.

WE ARE FORMING A PROJECT ADVISORY COMMITTEE AND THERE WILL BE MEMBERS FROM HERE WILL BE SITTING ON THAT COMMITTEE. WE PLAN TO HAVE ABOUT FIVE MEETING S OR SO THROUGHOUT THE TWO-YEAR PROCESS, SO WE CAN GET YOUR FULL INPUT INTO THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE ARE PLANNING. SOME OF THE KEY STAKEHOLDERS WE HAVE ALREADY MET WITH LISTED THERE, BROWARD COUNTY, TOWN OF DAVIE, SUNRISE, PLANTATION, CITY OF FORT LAUDERDALE .

WE HAVE ALL HAD PRELIMINARY MEETINGS WITH THOSE KEY STAKEHOLDERS AND THEY HAVE POINTED OUT SEVERAL OF THEIR HOT-BUTTON ISSUES THAT THEY DEFINITELY WANT US TO ADDRESS THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS .

[INAUDIBLE] NEXT COUPLE OF SLIDES, JUST TOUCH BRIEFLY ON SOME OF THOSE IMPROVEMENTS.

THE PROJECT ADVISORY COMMITTEE, WE ARE FORMING A PROJECT ADVISORY COMMITTEE, WHICH WILL CONSIST OF STAKEHOLDERS, ABOUT TWO FROM EACH OF THOSE CITIES, PLUS FROM THE BROWARD COUNT

[00:55:04]

OK, STAKEHOLDERS, I'VE MENTIONED A COUPLE FEW.

IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF SLIDES WE'LL JUST TOUCH ON SOME OF THE KEY , SOMEBODY, WELL, IT'S NOT ALL INCLUSIVE LIST BECAUSE WE MET WITH SOME EVEN YESTERDAY.

SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I'VE BEEN HEARING FROM PRELIMINARY STAKEHOLDERS' I N TERMS OF WHAT ISSUES THEY HAVE. OF COURSE, THEY WANT US TO FOCUS F IRST ON THOSE HIGH PRIORITY AREAS. AND FROM A LOT OF YOU EVER HEARD ANY CHANGES , OR SOME OF YOUR BIG ISSUES.

AND TRYING TO MOVE, WITH UNIVERSITY DRIVE HAS COME UP A LOT, WITH SEVERAL OF YOU TRYING TO MOVE TRAFFIC NORTH/SOUTH ALONG UNIVERSITY ON BOTH SIDES OF 595.

STATE ROAD 84, WE KNOW THERE ARE SOME ISSUES ALONG STATE ROAD 84.

STATE ROAD 84 HAS THOSE [INAUDIBLE] RAMPS TAKING AROUND 595 TO AND FROM STATE ROAD 84, SO YOU HAVE SOME WEAVING IN AREAS IN THERE AND THOSE HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP TO US AGAIN AS ISSUES. NEXT, UNIVERSITY DRIVE, PLANTATION.

SO IN PLANTATION, T HEY ARE INTERESTED IN TRYING TO FIND SOME KIND OF RELIEVER OUT FOR UNIVERSITY DRIVE AND PINE ISLAND.

AND THERE HAVE BEEN TALK ABOUT TRYING TO HAVE ANOTHER CONNECTION MIDWAY SOMEWHERE BETWEEN UNIVERSITY AND PINE ISLAND FOR CONNECTING TO STATE ROAD 84 WESTBOUND.

NOW PINE ISLAND WE KNEW OPERATIONAL ISSUES INTERCHANGE AGAIN .

THAT'S SOUTHBOUND TO WESTBOUND MOVEMENT, THAT'S COME UP A LOT IN MEETINGS WE HAVE HAD.

HOW CAN WE IMPROVE THAT? A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE TALKED ABOUT PROBABLY A NEW R AMP THERE TO TAKE THAT MOVEMENT OR EVEN FLYOVERS AS MENTIONED AT UNIVERSITY AND ALSO SUNRISE.

FREIGHT , THERE'S A TRUCK STOP ALONG THE CORRIDOR AND STATE ROAD 7 AT ACCESS TO AND FROM THAT HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP.

WE KNOW THAT'S AN ISSUE.

THE GREENWAY, AS WE MENTIONED BEFORE, THAT HAS BEEN A LONG OUTSTANDING ISSUE .

THAT GREEN HAPPENS TO BE THE ONLY ONE, WE UNDERSTAND , IT'S THE ONLY ONE OWNED AND OPERATED BY BROWARD COUNTY.

AND ACCESS AND SAFETY TO AND FROM AND CROSSING THOSE MAJOR NORTH/SOUTH ARTERIALS IS WILL BE A PROBABLY THE MAJOR ISSUE AS WE MOVE FORWARD FOR THE GREENWAY.

B ICYCLE LANES, THE DOT [INAUDIBLE] COUNTIES , [INAUDIBLE] DISTRICTS, HAVE BICYCLE LANES IN THEIR PLANS IN TERMS OF STANDARD .

BUT THE ISSUE WITH BICYCLE LANES OF COURSE WE HAVE HEARD THE CONGESTION.

WE NEED TO ADDRESS THE CONGESTION BEFORE WE LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, ADDING O R MOVING ADDITIONAL BICYCLE LANES ON SOME OF THE STREETS.

TRANSIT, WE'VE M ET WITH BROWARD COUNTY TRANSIT.

THEY HAVE T OLD US ABOUT THE ORIGINAL PLANS, AND CERTAINLY IMPROVEMENTS TO TRANSIT WILL BE A BIG PART OF THIS. OUR NEXT STEPS, I SAID BY APRIL WE SHOULD COMPLETE OUR FACT FINDING DATA COLLECTION PROCESS.

BY JUNE, WE SHOULD BE FINISHED WITH OUR EVALUATING EXISTING AND FUTURE CONDITIONS AND TRYING TO WORK UP SOME SOLUTIONS.

AND THEN BY SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR IT WAS SOMEBODY IN OUR EVALUATION OF THOSE DEFICIENCIES AND SOME POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS.

AND IN FALL OF THIS YEAR WE'LL COME BACK TO YOU AGAIN WITH A SUMMARY OF WHAT WE HAVE DONE SO FAR. AND I THINK WITH THAT WE'LL PROBABLY TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

CHON WONG IS OUR PROJECT MANAGER.

WE HAVE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE TEAM WITH US HERE THAT CAN PROBABLY BE ABLE ANSWER QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. RICHARD TORNESE.

OKAY. YEAH, I KNOW WE'VE MET.

WE'VE GONE OVER SOME OF YOUR PLAN AND WHAT WE HAVE PLANS AND SOME OF THE OVERLAP.

THIS IS ANOTHER GOOD EXAMPLE OF IT.

WE HAVE ADAPTIVE SIGNAL CONTROL ON UNIVERSTIY DRIVE THAT BASICALLY WE'RE UNDERWAY .

WE ACTUALLY HAVE DESIGN FOR THE NEW RIVER GREENWAYS CROSSING AT FLAMINGO ROAD.

IT'S LIKE 30 PERCENT COMPLETE.

SO SOME OF THIS IS GETTING ADVANCED SOONER , AND I KNOW YOU'RE IN THE PLANNING STAGE , YOU GOT TO PD&E, DESIGN , SO IT TAKES QUITE SOME TIME.

JUST CURIOUS IF THERE IS SOME WAY WE CAN DISCUSS SEPARATELY AS FAR AS WHAT MAKES SENSE FOR US TO DO INITIALLY BECAUSE THE PUBLIC WANTS IT SOONER VERSUS SOME OF THE OTHER, YOU KNOW, MORE ROBUST IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE PROBABLY GOING TO TAKE A LOT OF TIME AND MUCH

[01:00:04]

SO THE STUDIES LOOKED AT BOTH SHORT TERM AND LONG TERM IMPROVEMENTS.

CORRECT. AND WE'RE LOOKING TO PRIORITIZE WHAT ARE THE KEY ISSUES AND KEY CONCERNS FOR THE VARIOUS CITIES AND SERIOUS STAKEHOLDERS. SO CERTAINLY SHORT TERM IMPROVEMENTS THAT COULD BE ADDING TURN LANES OR SIGNALIZATION, ATMS SYSTEMS , THOSE THINGS CAN BE ADVANCED MORE QUICKLY. THE CITY OF PLANTATION IN PARTICULAR, THEY ARE LOOKING AT THEY HAVE TO RELIEVE A ROUTE BETWEEN UNIVERSITY AND PINE ISLAND.

SO WE'LL BE ASSISTING THEM ADVANCE IN SOME OF THE, YOU KNOW, INITIAL DATA COLLECTION AND TRAFFIC FORECAST ING WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE SO THAT CAN PROBABLY HELP ADVANCE THAT.

THAT SEEMS TO BE A BIG PRIORITY FOR THEM.

SO CERTAINLY, ESPECIALLY THOSE SHORT TERM MEASURES, WE CAN ADVANCE THOSE, AND WORKING WITH STAKEHOLDERS. WE CAN SEE WHA T'S THEIR PRIORITY.

AND CERTAINLY WE CAN ADJUST OUR SCHEDULE, WHICH WE HAVE DONE, TO FAVOR THOSE PRIORITY AREAS. OKAY. YEAH, THAT THAT WOULD BE PREFERABLE BECAUSE WE ARE DEVELOPING THE PLAN, YOU KNOW, WITH IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS AND WE HAVE THE GREENWAY CROSSINGS IN THERE.

RIGHT. WHICH WE WANT TO SAFEN UP SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.

RIGHT. AND YOU KNOW, THERE MAY BE, YOU KNOW, A OVERPASS BRIDGE THAT MAYBE BE CONSIDERED AT ONE POINT , BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW SOME SHORT TERM SIGNALIZATION THERE THAT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE.

SO, YEAH, WE WOULD APPRECIATE THA T, SO WE DON'T INTERFERE WITH YOUR LONG TERM PLANS EITHER. YEAH. AND WITH RESPECT TO THE GREENWAY AND THOSE [INAUDIBLE] CROSSINGS, WE HAVE HEARD A LOT FROM THAT FROM THE COUNTY, FROM FDOT, FROM YOU.

IT'S NOT THAT, WELL, WE UNDERSTAND THERE'S STILL SOME WORK TO DO REGARDING GE TTING FULL APPROVALS. THE DOT HAS EXPRESSED SOME CONCERN.

WE UNDERSTAND THE TRAFFIC [INAUDIBLE] REGARDING THE [INAUDIBLE] CROSSINGS, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A QUICK SHORT TERM SOLUTIONS , BUT THERE'S STILL SOME WORK TO BE DONE IN TERMS OF GETTING EVERYBODY ON BOARD [INAUDIBLE].

THAT'S PROBABLY THE BEST SHORT TERM SOLUTION RIGHT NOW.

CORRECT. YEAH. ALL RIGHT. NICHOLAS SOFOUL.

THANK YOU FOR MEETING WITH US YESTERDAY AND GIVING US AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE SOME OF THAT FEEDBACK, ESPECIALLY AS IT REGARDS TO THE BROWARD COUNTY NEW RIVER GREENWAY IN THIS SEGMENT. I JUST WANT TO JUST STATE JUST ON THE RECORD THAT I REALLY THINK MAKE SURE THAT YOU FOCUS ON SAFETY AND NOT JUST ON SPEED BECAUSE WHEN I SEE THIS PROJECT AND SEE THE SCOPE AT THE VERY TOP, YOU KNOW, AND IT REALLY, YOU KNOW, THE GOAL SEEMS TO BE CONGESTION RELIEF AND SOMETIMES IT'S ACCESSIBILITY , BUT REALLY IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE CHIEF COMPLAINT THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO SOLVE IS THERE'S TOO MUCH CONGESTION, PEOPLE ARE GOING TOO SLOW. AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE AS WE TRY TO ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES THAT'S SAFE, THAT WE DON'T END UP CREATING OTHER SAFETY ISSUES BY INCREASING THE SPEEDS THROUGH THESE CORRIDORS. SO I JUST WANT TO KEEP THAT , AND ALSO BE COGNIZANT THAT, YOU KNOW, EVERY ADDITIONAL CROSSING WE CREATE OVER THE NEW RIVER GREENWAY PRESENTS A NEW CHALLENGE FOR GREENWAY SAFETY.

SO IN CREATING THOSE EXTRA RELIEVER ROADS TO GET TO 595 AND PEOPLE TRYING TO QUICKLY GET ON TO 84 AND ONTO THESE RAMPS, YOU KNOW, EVERY TIME WE DO THAT WE'RE CREATING ANOTHER CONFLICT BETWEEN OUR GREENWAY SYSTEM AND CARS AND VEHICULAR TRAFFIC.

SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND. YEAH .

THANK YOU. YEAH. AND DEFINITELY SAFETY IS A BIG PART OF OUR STUDY.

I WAS ABOUT TO MAKE SOME CHANGES BASED ON OUR DISCUSSION YESTERDAY , BUT WE JUST DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO IMPROVE THAT.

BUT YEAH, I MEAN PART OF THIS WILL INVOLVE WE'RE CONDUCTING A, YOU KNOW, SYSTEM-WIDE SAFETY CRASH REVIEW OF THE STUDY AREA.

WE'RE IDENTIFYING THE HIGH CROSS SPOTS OR IDENTIFYING WHERE TH ERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF PEDESTRIAN CRASHES, WHERE THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF BIKE CRASHES, AND THOSE WILL BE FOCUS AREAS FOR THE STUDY. SO, YEAH, DEFINITELY IT'S SAFETY, AS YOU KNOW, IT'S DOT'S NUMBER ONE PRIORITY. SOMETIMES SAFETY AND OPERATIONS ARE IN CONFLICT.

WHEN THEY'RE IN CONFLICT IT'S ALWAYS DEFERRED TO SAFETY , SO, YEAH, DEFINITELY.

YEAH. THERE ARE NO OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS ON QUEUE HERE, SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION.

THANK YOU. SO WE'LL MOVE ON T O COMMITTEE REPORTS .

READ THEM AT YOUR LEISURE , SEE WHAT THE OTHER COMMITTEES ARE DOING, MPO, THE CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE. WE'LL MOVE ON TO MEMBER COMMENTS.

[1. Member Comments]

THANK YOU. I DON'T KNOW.

I THINK WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION.

I'M HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING CERTAIN THINGS, AND I'M NOT THE DUMBEST GUY IN THE WORLD. SO THIS RELATES TO SURTAX FUNDING OF PROJECTS AND HOW THEY INTERACT WITH CSLIP PROJECTS, HOW THEY INTERACT WITH MOBILITY PROJECTS.

WE HAD OUR ONE ON ONE WITH ANDREW AND KERRIE ON FRIDAY.

IT WAS GREAT BECAUSE I LEFT THERE COMPLETELY CONFUSED AND MET MONDAY WITH FAZEL AND RICARDO ABOUT A MOBILITY PROJECT AND I'M HAVING TROUBLE , AND LIKE I SAID, I'M HAVING

[01:05:05]

OUR LIST OF SURTAX PROJECTS INCLUDES PROJECTS ON STATE SYSTEM, PROJECTS ON COUNTY SYSTEM, LOCAL PROJECTS. AND WE'RE HAVING TROUBLE WITH SOME OF THESE PROJECTS AND HOW THEY'VE BEEN RANKED AND HOW THEY'VE BEEN INTERACTING.

I T'S REALLY JUST KIND OF BECOMING A BIT OF AN ISSUE.

AND I DON'T THINK I'M THE ONLY PERSON IN THE ROOM WHO'S HAVING THIS ISSUE , SO I DON'T KNOW IF THE CONVERSATION WE CAN HAVE IT NOW OR IF WE CAN SCHEDULE IT FOR THE NEXT TAC OR IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT I NEED TO BE PULLED ASIDE AND SCOLDED.

BUT, YOU KNOW, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE TALK ABOUT THE INTERACTION OF THESE DIFFERENT FUNDING SOURCES AND THESE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS AND WHAT THE REALITY IS.

WE'RE ALSO HAVING THE PROBLEM, OF COURSE, BETWEEN, NOT THE PROBLEM, THE DIFFICULTY UNDERSTANDING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE MPO'S SURTAX TEAM, THE COUNTY SURTAX TEAM AND SOME OF THESE INTERACTIONS.

OK. SO I APPRECIATE YOU INDULGING ME.

SURE. WELL, USUALLY, I'M LOOKING AT BILL IF HE WANTED TO COME UP ALSO [INAUDIBLE] , BUT YOU 'VE, I'M SURE, HAVE BEEN TALKING TO YOUR REPRESENTATIVE ON THE MPO BOARD, COMMISSIONER CARN, BECAUSE HE CAME TO OUR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO EXPRESS THOSE EXACT SAME CONCERNS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE MPO BOARD IS GOING TO HAVE IS THEY WANT TO DO A WORKSHOP AFTER THEIR APRIL 8TH , I THINK IT'S, I DON'T REMEMBER, APRIL BOARD MEETING TO DISCUSS THOSE TYPES OF ISSUES OF, YOU KNOW, THE OVERLAPS, WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT , HOW CAN SWAPPING WORK, CAN PARTIAL FUNDING BE USED FOR CSLIP PROJECTS, OR CAN THEY BE SWAPPED OUT FOR OTHER PROJECTS? SO HE HAD A LOT OF THOSE EXACT SAME QUESTIONS THAT YOU ARE ASKING NOW.

WE'RE GOING TO DO LIKE A WORKSHOP FOR THE MPO BOARD MEMBERS BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT ALONE.

THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE THOSE SAME QUESTIONS.

SO NO, YOU'RE NOT DUMB.

YOU'RE NOT, YOU KNOW, DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON.

THAT'S JUST A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT WE'VE COME.

SO WE'RE GONNA DO THAT FOR THE MPO BOARD.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GONNA BE A REALLY LONG WORKSHOP, THOUGH, JUST BECAUSE THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH THAT THE MPO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR , AND IT'S REALLY THE RANKING OF THE PROJECTS.

WHILE WE'RE AWARE OF SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THE COUNTY DOES HAVE MOVING FORWARD AND WE COMMUNICATE A LOT WITH THEM, THERE'S CERTAIN DIRECTION THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA BE RESPONSIBLE FOR.

RIGHT NOW, WE'RE JUST RESPONSIBLE FOR PRIORITIZING RANKING PROJECTS AND PROVIDING TO THE COUNTY ON AN ANNUAL BASIS.

BUT THERE'S OTHER THINGS THAT YOU'RE ASKING ABOUT, WHICH WE'RE AWARE OF, AND WE'RE COORDINATING WITH.

NOW I DON'T KNOW, BILL, IF YOU WANTED TO ADD A FEW WORDS.

I THINK YOU'VE MOSTLY COVERED IT.

OK. I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.

BUT I GUESS JUST TO SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, WE ARE WORKING HARD INTERNALLY HERE TO TRY TO COORDINATE BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT PROGRAMS. YOU KNOW, WE AGAIN WOULD ASK FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND INDULGENCE AS THIS [INAUDIBLE] BECAUSE IT'S ALL NEW FOR EVERYONE , WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH THE SURTAX.

SO WE'RE MAKING UP A LOT OF THIS AS WE GO ALONG.

OUR FOCUS HAS BEEN ON GETTING THE FIRST SET, THAT CYCLE ONE, OF MUNICIPAL PROJECTS OUT THE DOOR. WE HAVE DONE A REVIEW OF THOSE AGAINST THE CSLIP AND THE OTHER PRIORITIES TO TRY TO AVOID THE CONFLICTS.

WE'RE GOING TO WORK WITH THE COUNTY A LOT MORE ON THAT WITH THE FIVE YEAR PROGRAM, WHICH IS THE NEXT STEP THAT WE'LL BE ROLLING OUT.

AND PART OF THAT GOES BACK TO TWO YEARS AGO WHEN THERE WAS AN AWFUL LOT OF UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THE SURTAX WAS EVEN GOING TO PASS.

SO MANY OF YOU PROBABLY REMEMBER SITTING IN A ROOM WITH WITH PETER GIES AND I FOR THE OUTREACH FOR THE MTP.

AND WHAT WE TOLD YOU AT THAT TIME, AND WE STILL THINK IT WAS THE RIGHT THING TO TELL YOU, WAS APPLY EVERYWHERE BECAUSE WE DIDN'T KNOW IF THE SURTAX WOULD PASS, B UT NOW, YOU KNOW, FORTUNATELY IT DID PASS.

BUT ABSOLUTELY, WE DO HAVE TO RECONCILE NOW AND WE NEED TO WORK ON MAKING SURE THERE'S NOT OVERLAP. I THINK WE'VE BEEN PRETTY EFFECTIVE WITH THAT.

BUT, YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO DO MORE OF THAT COORDINATION MOVING FORWARD TO AVOID OVERLAP , AND WE NEED TO LOOK AND SEE WHERE DOES IT MAKE THE MOST SENSE FOR YOU TO BE PURSUING SOME OF THESE PROJECTS. BECAUSE OF THE SURTAX THERE'S THE POTENTIAL TO GET THINGS DELIVERED MUCH MORE QUICKLY THAN THROUGH THE CSLIP , AND ALSO SOME OF THE RULES OF THE CSLIP ARE CHANGING. SO, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A LOT OF MOVING PARTS.

THERE'S A LOT OF CHANGES GOING ON RIGHT NOW , SO, AGAIN, WE'VE BEEN DOING OUR BEST.

AND I KNOW ANDREW AND KERRIE HAVE BEEN HERE MONTHLY TO GIVE YOU UPDATES, AND WE'RE TRYING TO COMMUNICATE AS MUCH INFORMATION AS WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, UP TO DATE.

[01:10:03]

THERE'S NO SPECIFIC QUESTIONS PER SAY .

PART OF ME BRINGING THIS UP IN THIS FORUM IS BECAUSE THIS IS THE BEST FORUM.

I UNDERSTAND THAT THE COUNTY SURTAX TEAM ISN'T NECESSARILY PRESENT, BUT WE DO HAVE PEOPLE IN THE ROOM WHO REPRESENT THEM.

WE HAVE MEMBERS OF THE MUNICIPALITIES.

WE HAVE MEMBERS OF FDOT PRESENT, AND OF COURSE, ALL OF YOU.

SO REALLY JUST KIND OF RAISING THE SUBJECT KIND OF PUBLICLY AND UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU'RE NOT SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANSWERING THIS QUESTION, BUT I DO APPRECIATE IT.

OK. AND ONE OF THE THINGS WE 'RE NOT STOPPING WITH OUR PRESENTATION, SO WE DIDN'T HAVE ONE THIS MONTH JUST BECAUSE WE RECENTLY HAD THE WORKSHOP, YOU KNOW, AND PRESENTED THE LIST OF PROJECTS AND STUFF.

AND THOSE ARE GOING TO THE COUNTY THIS WEEK , SO WE JUST DIDN'T HAVE AN UPDATE ,.

WE DIDN'T FEEL THAT WAS NECESSARY, BU T THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO STOP THOSE UPDATES. OUR ROLE WAS TO COORDINATE WITH THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE , BUT WE PRESENT THE STUFF THAT WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR.

WE DON'T ALWAYS HAVE CONTROL OVER SOME OF THE COUNTY SIDE OF IT, BUT WE COMMUNICATE WHAT WE DO KNOW. BUT WE DON'T WANT ALSO MISCOMMUNICATE, TOO, BECAUSE SOMETIMES WE HEAR SOMETHING THAT MIGHT CHANGE FROM THE COUNTY PERSPECTIVE.

SO WE GOTTA BE CAREFUL ABOUT THAT.

VERY GOOD. THANK YOU. NICHOLAS SOFOUL .

NO, YOU'RE NOT CONFUSED. [LAUGHTER]. WELL, YOU ARE CONFUSED OR WE'RE CONFUSED WITH YOU.

I'LL JUST SAY THAT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON I N MY TEAM, MOBILITY PLANNING IN THE COUNTY, IS ONCE WE RECEIVE THE DATA SETS FROM THE MPO ON THE MUNICIPAL PROJECTS, WHICH SHOULD HAPPEN IN THE NEXT WEEK, WE CAN THEN OVERLAY THAT WITH OUR DATA OF THE COUNTY PROJECTS. BECAUSE EVEN WITHIN THE COUNTY RIGHT NOW, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE OVERLAP IS. I COULDN'T TELL YOU, BUT WE WILL KNOW VERY SOON.

AND ONCE WE GET THAT DATA, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT OUR GIS ANALYZERS ARE LOOKING AT , SO WE CAN START TO IDENTIFY THOSE OVERLAPS AND TRY TO CREATE SOMETHING MOVING FORWARD.

SO JUST KNOW IT'S SOMETHING WE ARE LOOKING AT ON THE COUNTY SIDE AS WELL.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT MARCH IS BIKE MONTH, SO GET OUT AND TRY TO SEE WHAT EVENTS THERE ARE. I KNOW THE BROWARD COUNTY PARKS PUTS ON A LOT OF EVENTS FOR BIKE MONTH. THERE'S GOING TO BE AN OFFICIAL BROWARD COUNTY PROCLAMATION AT THE MARCH 10TH BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MEETING AT 10:00 A.M.

IN RECOGNITION OF BIKE MONTH , SO THAT'S KIND OF EXCITING.

SO I JUST WANTED TO KEEP THAT ON EVERYONE'S RADAR.

WE ALSO HAVE LET'S GO BIKING ON MARCH 7.

THERE YOU GO. THANK YOU. I JUST HAVE ONE COMMENT IS THAT THERE IS A TRANSPORTATION PLANNER POSITION OPEN AT THE CITY OF CORAL SPRINGS.
