An initial Financial Plan would need to be submitted to FHWA prior to FHWA project authorization for construction; however, a Financial Plan is not required to be prepared during the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) process as a prerequisite to the project being issued a Record of Decision (ROD) by FHWA. Funding Options Transportation infrastructure projects such as SRC could be funded through a mix of federal, state, and local sources. However, with limited options for federal and state funds, discussions with the community have focused on identifying potential local sources of revenue. Four local funding sources were identified as the most likely to be applicable to the SRC project: 1) gas tax, 2) vehicle registration fee, 3) property tax, and 4) tolls. The above local funding mechanisms were considered most likely to be applicable to the project based on the following criteria (ECONorthwest, 2014): • Legal authority. A funding source must not be prohibited by State statute, or it must become legal within a desired timeframe. Even for legal funding sources, complicated legal requirements could result in legal challenges, extra administrative costs, and political uncertainty. • Efficiency. An efficient funding source creates and maintains net revenues (net of collection costs) by providing sufficient revenue generating capacity, stability, and flexibility of use while minimizing administrative costs (i.e., the costs of collecting on the source). P3_RESPONSE_DONE.DOCX 2 Page 3 1 SALEM, OREGON, THURSDAY, MAY 17, 2012, 3:00 P.M. 2 -o0o- 3 CLARENCE T. HOLMAN: My name is C. T. Holman, 4 Clarence T. Holman, III. I live at 215 Riviera Drive, 5 Northeast, next to River Road Park, just south of the 6 park, and I'm against the proposed bridge joining Tryon 7 Street to West Salem. 8 This will have a major impact on my family's 9 life. We enjoy the peace and serenity of our property, 10 and feel this will be severely compromised by the proposed 11 bridge. The proposed bridge will not only impact our 12 quiet existence, but the wildlife that currently enjoy the 13 area as well. 14 The noise and air pollution is significant, and 15 will be detrimental to what my family I and the wildlife 16 currently enjoy. We are able to observe geese and their 17 goslings, beavers, nesting osprey, and deer drinking from 18 the banks of the Willamette, and feel this will be 19 drastically changed with the building and the use of the 20 proposed bridge. 21 The proposed bridge will also strongly decrease 22 our property value. I agree that the traffic congestion 23 problem needs to be addressed, and I'm in favor of 24 widening the existing bridge. This option is not only in 25 an area that houses a bridge, but is also far less COOK COURT REPORTING, INC. - 503-537-0339 www.cookcourtreporting.com Page 4 1 expensive. 2 Thank you. 3 LISA CHILDERS: Hi. My name is Lisa Childers, 4 and we live at 215 Riviera Drive, Northeast, just about 5 one block away from Tryon Street, and we are against a new 6 bridge coming into Tryon Street. 7 We do believe that something does need to be 8 done, as my parents live over in West Salem, and we have 9 experienced firsthand the heavy traffic over the existing 10 bridge at times. 11 We bought our home in 2004 to enjoy the peace, 12 nature, and serenity that the property and the environment 13 has to offer. Our family of three children, 11, 10, and 14 8, and one furry child, a dog, enjoy the safety and quiet 15 of our home. A bridge coming into Tryon Street just a 16 block away would have a major impact on our way of life. 17 This bridge would significantly change our way 18 of life, and not just ours, but the animals in the area as 19 well. We enjoy watching the deer across the river, the 20 osprey in the park right next to us, the beaver, the 21 geese, the ducks, and the ducklings and goslings. 22 A bridge coming into Tryon Street would 23 significantly increase the pollution level in our area. 24 It would lower our property value, and be a major concern 25 for our family. COOK COURT REPORTING, INC. - 503-537-0339 www.cookcourtreporting.com Page 22 1 thinking what the Columbia River Crossing Environmental 2 Studies have cost so far in comparison. That's the 3 total cost of the bridge. So I think we need to, again, 4 not close those ideas off. 5 The last thing I would want to say in terms 6 of a principle is that I really think that the solution 7 needs to take the traffic out of West Salem and into 8 Highway 22. 9 Again, I haven't looked at whether it's 4-C 10 or 4-A, or whatever option it is. But the ones that 11 continue the backup along Commercial Street that backs 12 up at 5:00 way up into North Salem, that's a problem. I 13 think the ideal solution is to somehow connect the Salem 14 Parkway across the river to Highway 22 with options for 15 people to get off in West Salem, but not take it 16 downtown, and not have it go into West Salem. So those 17 are my preferences. Thank you. 18 (Discussion off the record.) 19 (Brief recess taken.) 20 MS. STEFFAN: So what I will have you do is 21 just say your name and address, and then I will start 22 the timer. The panel is here to listen and just gather 23 the information to help them with their decision making 24 process. 25 CURT FISHER: My name is Curt Fisher. I am COOK COURT REPORTING, INC. - 503-537-0339 www.cookcourtreporting.com Page 23 1 at 680 Leffelle Street, Southeast, down by Bush Park. 2 Based on the evidence that I see in the DEIS, I am 3 really persuaded that the no-build option is really the 4 intelligent choice. 5 I started my analysis of the information 6 right here with Table 3, Table 3.134, which shows the 7 Operational Analysis of the various intersections in the 8 affected area. Each of these black marks represents an 9 intersection that fails the standards of mobility 10 according to the criteria laid out in the analysis. 11 I have counted the number of intersections 12 that fail. Three of them are actually worse than the 13 no-build option. Two of them offer really no 14 significant improvement. One of them offers some relief 15 of congestion, and some improvement of mobility. That's 16 the 4-C, 4-E option, but still five intersections fail 17 there. 18 When I look at this, it is really a 19 textbook situation of the laws of urban congestion, and 20 induced demand in action. You can see that I really 21 don't see that any of these options satisfactorily 22 address the problem of mobility in the study area. 23 Regarding that 4-C, 4-E alternative, Table 3.128 goes 24 over the travel times through the study area. Most of 25 the travel times, the improvement is only a few minutes COOK COURT REPORTING, INC. - 503-537-0339 www.cookcourtreporting.com Page 24 1 over the no-build alternative. 2 So when measured by that standard, it looks 3 to me like we're spending hundreds of millions to save 4 minutes, which means we're spending millions to save 5 seconds. 6 And even then, I have gone here and looked 7 at the travel times for the status quo and compared them 8 to what we have now. Most of the travel times do not -- 9 aren't any better than what we have now. Some of them 10 are even worse. 11 I think that exposes a flaw in the 12 statement of need when it comes to mobility, because if 13 we actually are going to claim that we have a problem 14 with travel times right now, I think the evidence shows 15 that the alternatives don't address that problem 16 satisfactorily enough. If it doesn't work now, it's not 17 going to work in 2031. If it's good enough in 2031, 18 then we don't have a problem now. So I think you are 19 going to have a real problem justifying the statement of 20 need there.

  • Book, Music and Lyrics by Jason Robert Brown the Last Five Years Is Presented Through Special Arrangement with Music Theater International (MTI)
    The Last Five Years Book, Music and Lyrics by Jason Robert Brown The Last Five Years is presented through special arrangement with Music Theater International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. 421 West 54th Street, New York, NY 10019, www.MTIShows.com Book, Music and Lyrics by JASON ROBERT BROWN Director’s Note They say, “there are two sides to every story” and in the case of The Last Five Years, “they” couldn’t be more right! We all have our own story, our own goals, our own experiences, that we carry with us throughout our lives. When two lives come together in a relationship, often with different societal parameters of what love is, how relationships should be, and countless other expectations, the relationship is no longer living in each moment, but rather moving from one expectation to the next. The characters of Jamie and Cathy continually remind us of the dangers that expectation can have on, not just romantic, but all variations of human relationships. I chose to produce The Last Five Years because this musical so brilliantly portrays the intimate and often hidden moments that make up a relationship; making it unmistakably familiar to audiences who have experienced the trials of love and loss. Vulnerably told through Jason Robert Brown’s soaring melodies and tight, witty lyrics, The Last Five Years tells the very human story of the struggles we face when we commit ourselves to blind love. Brown wrote this piece after concluding his own five-year marriage, influencing him to create a unique and dynamic form of storytelling; having the show begin at the end of the relationship for Cathy and the beginning for Jamie.

With the resources of the Ford Family Foundation, of which she was one of the founders, she worked tirelessly to benefit ed- ucation and the arts in Oregon, earning wide recognition for her philan- thropic efforts. As a trustee of Willamette University, Mrs. Ford generously supported student scholarships, academic programs and the arts. Mrs. Ford's appreciation for art began in her youth. She recalled that her fourth-grade teacher once sent a note home to her mother requesting special art lessons for her. The family was financially unable to provide these lessons. Wanting to spare her daughter from disappointment, her mother waited until she was grown to tell her about the recommendation. Consequently, Mrs. Ford's devotion to education and the arts sprung from her desire to give others the op- portunity to realize and fulfill their talents. A turning point in her life came when Mrs. Ford moved to Salem and began painting classes at Wil- lamette University with Professor Carl Hall. Here she found a measure of personal fulfillment and a welcoming community that espoused her values of service and teaching.

She was the welcoming force in the Reed’s seven-year sponsorship of AIA’s ‘Something Red’ holiday event honoring area artists with a ballroom presentation of their submitted work, and a space for an annual awards party. She partnered with cinematographer Tim King to create and produce a DVD for the Sa- lem Downtown Association that celebrated the history, architecture, culture and promise of our Downtown. Rebecca used costumed volunteers to cre- atively retell the Reed’s historical events – Susan B. Anthony’s speeches, the gamblers, Samuel Clemens on stage, and presidential visits. Her interest in Salem’s history led her to the exploration of Salem’s underground with col- lege professor John Ritter, and the telling of its storied past.

  • A-12 Policy on News Media Attendance at Executive Sessions
    COUNCIL POLICY NO. A-12 TITLE: POLICY ON NEWS MEDIA ATTENDANCE AT EXECUTIVE SESSIONS POLICY: See attachment. REFERENCE: Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 192 Council Policy Manual/Council/Executive Sessions 1 CITY OF SALEM POLICY ON NEWS MEDIA ATTENDANCE AT EXECUTIVE SESSIONS WHEREAS, Oregon public meetings law provides that representatives of the news media shall be allowed to attend certain executive sessions of public bodies, but such representatives may be required not to disclose specified information (ORS 192.660(4)); and WHEREAS, because at the time state law regarding media attendance at executive sessions was adopted the “news media” consisted of entities that were institutionalized and structured to support compliance with the requirements of ORS 192.660(4), the law includes no express mechanism for enforcing those requirements; and WHEREAS, technological advances since the time the public meetings law was initially adopted have resulted in communications mechanisms allowing virtually any individual or entity to disseminate information widely; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Salem finds that in the absence of a statutory definition of “news media” as that term is used in ORS 192.660(4) it is necessary to adopt a policy that implements the intent of the public meetings law relating to executive session attendance without precluding attendance by Internet-based or other “non-traditional” information disseminators that are institutionalized and committed to compliance with ORS 192.660(4); and WHEREAS the City Council of the City of Salem recognizes that this policy is solely for the purpose of determining eligibility of individuals to attend executive sessions where disclosure of specified information from the executive sessions is prohibited, and is not intended to otherwise define “news media” or to determine eligibility to report on City of Salem activities or to limit access to other City of Salem meetings by any person.
