[email protected]. 1000 FRIENDS OF OREGON Testimony of Keith A. Bartholomew Thank you for the opportunity to testify on the proposed cuts to the ODOT TIP. 1000 Friends sees this process not so much as a cost cutting effort, but more as an opportunity to meet the requirements of state law, primarily the Transportation Planning Rule, the Oregon Transportation Plan, and the Oregon Benchmarks. From this perspective, the question is not "How much money can be saved by cutting certain projects?", but rather "Which projects work against the state's land use, transportation, and air quality goals, targets, and mandates?" Using land use, transportation, air quality policy as a filter, rather than fiscal policy, we support the cuts proposed by staff under "Option 2." In particular, we support trimming back the I-5/Kruseway project as proposed.
