and access with the preservation of
natural features and unique
community character”

streets have in
common?
They’re exceeding V/C and “need” to be widened…
21. What’s it really all about?
“Connecting people with places through quality choices”
22. Discussion Questions
a) What land development patterns are most
challenging for our communities?
b) Is their an appetite for managing access along
critical corridors? How?
c) How should we prioritize multimodal investments
in Rural, Suburban, and Urban locations?

36. Laying the Foundation
• I have to admit that as a municipal official, I
never thought I would be in support of
regional property tax sharing.
• However, we at the local level have to
change our mindset about the ways we
look at economic development.
• As local officials we can no longer be
constrained by development strategies
limited to our towns’ borders.
• We can no longer operate as islands onto
ourselves. To do so will continue a formula
for failure that we cannot afford. Bob Vein, Mayor, Town of Putnam, CT
& Chairman of NEC COG

53. Process in a Nutshell
Build a transportation scenario Interchange
Improvement
for the RTP study area
The process (in a nutshell):
1. What is your vision?
2. Dump out the Chips
3. Decide what projects-
ideas are important
4. Arrange chips on map
5. Trade: Add or
Remove Chips
6. Stick down chips
7. Present Map to Group
54. Workshop Exercise - Instructions
Each group will be led
by a facilitator
In the first 10 minutes you should:
• Introduce yourselves!
•Discuss your transportation vision.
• Make sure you have all the materials
(pens, chipsets, and chipset guides)
• Familiarize yourself with the
workshop map and its legend, colors,
and symbols
55. Instructions
Next, your facilitator will
introduce and explain the
chip materials:
•Chipset Instructions
•Chip Trading Guide
By 11:30 or so, your group
should be wrapping up
arranging chips on the map
and be ready to present!
56. Instructions
Next, your group should
• Create a name for the map
• Record your Table #
• Select someone to present it
to all of the workshop
participants

Editor's Notes
Welcome and acknowledge TPO/RPA Executives
Explain the TPO, geographic representation, and process
The purpose of a plan is multifaceted and should consider all of these elements and more.
Lots goes into the development of the plan’s themes, goals, and strategies. From this we begin to prepare the revenue forecasting, assess scenario planning outcomes, and begin project evaluation. Before the plan can be drafted projects must be prioritized to ensure what the feds refer to as a “financially feasible” plan. A draft is presented for review, the plan is revised and submitted to the public for comment and time for response/re-evaluation of project selection, and then a final document submitted for federal air quality conformity approval which is due in March of 2014.

TracyAfter four years and 9 extensions, new transportation authorization bill finally signed into law. Overview of MAP-21.27 month extension as opposed to 6-year funding bill.Not a major overhaul, but several noteworthy items..
PeterAs Melissa noted early on, we have initiated our next major transportation plan update..We have asked you here today, to be a part of that process…to help us navigate and develop our next transportation plan.This is all part of our continuing cycle to address our region’s needs…
Peter..and those needs are many.Start to bring in Chattanooga specifics, outlining the many needs of the region in the context of dwindling resources.
PeterMake sure to do quick overview of federal funding programs…Overview of funding issues at national level through HTF. Should also hit on funding decline at state and local level as well.Note that historically 80% of project funding from the feds…this trend is obviously changing…shift towards non-federal sources of funds, etc
PeterHowever, significant challenges continue….growing needs (e.g., aging population, system preservation needs) and even more limited revenue in the future..Reason we are stressing needs versus funding is strategic project prioritization will really be critical in moving this plan forward…finding right balance within limited funds…
TracyWe’ve hit on the multiple challenges that must be addressed as part of plan development, and some of the more innovative ways this region will be tackling its transportation issues. As we proceed into plan development, we need a structured way to link the investments that we make through the plan, back to our regional needs. We have committed to a performance-based plan approach to help us do this.
