Betty Schaafsma seconded the motion and it carried with Mary Smith, Steve Johnson, Ron Haas, Blane Meier, Scott Failmezger, and Betty Schaafsma voting yes. Jonathan David and Terry Wright were absent. IV. AGENDA ANALYSIS No changes were made to the agenda. V. BUSINESS A. Five-Year Pavement Maintenance Plan John Lewis introduced Gabe Crop and Troy Bowers from Murray, Smith & Associates, Inc. (MSA) and explained that the City established a November 15, 2011 Transportation Advisory Committee Page 1 of 4 Transportation Utility Fee in 2007 to address maintenance needs for 125 miles of City-owned streets. The fees collected are deposited into the City's Pavement Maintenance Utility Fund (PMUF). With the first four years of PMUF funded projects complete, the City contracted with MSA to develop a long term pavement maintenance plan for 2012 through 2016 to support continued effective use of the PMUF. Gabe Crop showed a PowerPoint presentation for the benefit of the Committee and discussed it. Enlarged maps from the plan were also available on the wall. Mr. Crop discussed the difference between preventative maintenance and rehabilitation and displayed a graphic that showed how roads age over time. He talked about how the City's StreetSaver program worked and mentioned that in order to develop a project list, they used the StreetSaver program and also looked at things that the program couldn't consider such as already planned work, bus routes, non-city roads, institutional knowledge, etc. The City has its streets spot checked every three years in order to keep the data in the StreetSaver program current. It has been in use at the City since the 1980's. Once the project list was pretty well developed, they took it to the next step which was coordinating with the City's utility groups because optimum product coordinated both utility and street work. He mentioned that private utility companies will get an opportunity to look at the final document so that they can also coordinate needed work with the City's plan. B. Public Event Road Closures John reported that he had heard from Committee members wanting to know about upcoming road closures. They were uninformed about the Homecoming parade road closure. He added that the only closure he knew of in the near future was the closure of Main Street for the tree lighting ceremony the first Saturday in December. C. Two-Way Main Street The contractor's goal was to get the work done this week. There were complications coordinating the work around weather and the closure of on- street parking.

    Pricing and Technology Strategies to Address Congestion on and Financing of America’s Roads Oregon’s Approach Testimony before the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure United States House of Representatives September 11, 2019 Travis Brouwer Assistant Director for Public Affairs Oregon Department of Transportation 1 Chairman DeFazio, Ranking Member Graves, Chair Norton, Ranking Member Davis, and other distinguished members of the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit, thank you very much for the opportunity to appear before you today. My name is Travis Brouwer and I am the Assistant Director for Public Affairs at the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). I am here today to discuss tolling and congestion pricing on state highways in Oregon. Growing Congestion in Portland Pushes Oregon to Toll Today, Oregon is not a toll state. No state‐owned highway, bridge or tunnel is tolled, and this has been the case for decades. However, growing congestion in Portland led the Oregon Legislature in 2017 to direct ODOT to implement tolling on Interstate 5 and Interstate 205 in the Portland metro area. In the lead up to consideration of a major transportation funding bill, both a blue‐ribbon commission created by Oregon Governor Kate Brown and members of the state legislature embarked on statewide transportation listening tours. These efforts revealed that freeway congestion in the Portland metropolitan area is a statewide concern. Communities and businesses across the state, in many cases located hundreds of miles away from Portland, consistently reported struggles with getting products and people to and through the Portland area. Thanks to these listening tours, policymakers recognized that Portland congestion is an urban problem and a rural problem that must be addressed at a statewide level in Oregon.
