Library Packet Memphis and Shelby County Division of Planning & Development 125 NORTH MAIN STREET, MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE 38103 Tel: (901) 576-7190 Fax: (901) 576-7272 Mark H. Luttrell, Jr. A C Wharton, Jr. Mayor, Shelby County Mayor, City of Memphis Date: January 29, 2013 Subject: Amendments to the 2011-2014 Transportation Improvement Program From: Pragati Srivastava, Administrator, Memphis MPO In compliance with federal regulations 23 CFR 450, the Memphis Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) is proposing to amend the FY 2011-2014 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). A total of twenty-eight (28) amendments to the MPO’s 2011-2014 TIP are being proposed for public review. An Air Quality Short Conformity Report has been prepared for one (1) of the TIP amendments, which is the change in funding type and amount for the I-40: Interchange at I-240 East of Memphis project. The report serves as Amendment 9 to the 2011-2014 TIP and is attached here for review. The corresponding amended TIP pages follow the report. Also attached is an Air Quality Exempt Packet that identifies the remaining twenty-seven (27) TIP amendments. As indicated in the Air Quality Exempt Packet cover letter, these projects qualify as being exempt from transportation conformity determination as they meet exemption criteria as outlined in 40 CFR 93.125 – Exempt Projects. The corresponding amended TIP pages follow this packet. All of the amendments will be considered for adoption by the Transportation Policy Board (TPB) of the MPO. The amended pages have been revised to indicate the resulting funding amounts should the projects be approved. If the Board decides not to amend the projects into the TIP, the changes reflected on the following pages will not be included. The Memphis MPO, through FHWA guidance, believes that continued interaction with the entire community builds support and, more importantly, ensures that the public has the opportunity to help shape the substance of plans and projects. The Memphis MPO strives to enhance the impact of participation on transportation decision-making. In order to accomplish this task, the MPO works to improve the number of stakeholders participating in the transportation planning process through increased opportunities for feedback, improved education regarding transportation planning, and constant evaluation regarding the effectiveness of outreach. Written public comments on the amendments will be accepted until Wednesday, February 27, 2013. Comments may be submitted to Pragati Srivastava, Administrator of Department of Regional Services, 125 North Main Street, Suite # 450 Memphis, TN 38103 or via email at [email protected]. The TPB will hold a public hearing to accept oral comments and take action on the proposed items on Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 1:30 PM in the Student Alumni Building at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, 800 Madison Avenue, Memphis, Tennessee 38103.

  • Charlotte Streetcar Economic Development Study
    Charlotte Streetcar Economic Development Study Prepared for: City of Charlotte Prepared by: Bay Area Economics (BAE) Warren & Associates Integra Realty Resources April 2009 Executive Summary Overview and Study Approach This Study presents an economic evaluation of the proposed Charlotte Streetcar, which would run on an approximately 10 mile corridor along Beatties Ford Road from Interstate-85 through Downtown and out along Elizabeth Avenue and Central Avenue to Eastland Mall. The central question addressed by this Study is how much funding could be anticipated from property-value based mechanisms, and what does this amount of potential funding mean for the feasibility of the proposed Charlotte Streetcar. The Study was prepared by BAE, a national urban economics and development advisory firm with expertise in transit-oriented development, in collaboration with Charlotte-based real estate firms Warren & Associates and Integra Realty Resources. The proposed Charlotte Streetcar would be an addition to existing City plans and proposals for multiple new rapid transit lines, including the Northeast Corridor Blue Line extension, North Corridor Purple Line commuter rail, Southeast Corridor Silver Line, and West Corridor. Different types of transit are being evaluated for use on the various corridors, including light rail, heavy commuter rail, bus rapid transit, and streetcar (the latter for the West Corridor). The Study involved identification of the lessons learned from other streetcar systems, thorough evaluation of local Charlotte markets and the proposed corridor, and preparation of detailed projections of potential property-value based funding. An academic literature review of streetcar systems (and related light rail) was conducted, along with qualitative and quantitative case study assessments of streetcar systems in other cities, and analysis of the impact of LYNX Blue Line on property values.

    EVERGREEN NEIGHBORHOOD HISTORY THEN & NOW Vollintine-Evergreen Hein Park Neighborhood Neighborhood Snowden School North Parkway EVERGREEN Memphis Zoo HISTORIC DISTRICT NEIGHBORHOOD OVERTON Overton Park PARK The Shell Memphis College of Art Parkway East cLean Stonewall M Brooks Art Links at Evergreen Museun Overton Park Poplar Ave. Target House East End tkins Neighborhood Wa Court Ave. Cleveland Madison Ave. Union Ave. ➥ Annesdale-Snowden Central Gardens ➥ Cooper-Young Neighborhood Neighborhood Neighborhood PREFACE The story of rebuilding on the land vacated for the I-40 extension through Midtown Memphis is a dramatic example of how a neighborhood took responsibility for its future and in so doing, preserved an important part of the city itself. Memphis Heritage, Inc. a non-profit preservation organization dedicated to furthering public appreciation for our historic resources, saw a need to update the l980 Evergreen Neighborhood History in collaboration with the Evergreen Historic District Association. Memphis Interfaith Association (MIFA), publisher of the original history—along with six other neighborhood histories—readily endorsed the effort. This continuation of the Evergreen neighborhood history written by Bette Tilly, one of the authors of the original publication, is intended as a pilot project. Memphis Heritage hopes to update and expand a series of neighborhood histories to reinforce the sense of civic pride characteri stic of historic neighborhoods and to nourish the commitment to preserve such areas. The original narrative, Yesterday’s Evergreen Today’s Mid-Memphis, chronicles the destruction of homes, displacement of residents, and dissolution of a cohesive neigh- borhood in Midtown Memphis. The new chapter tells the story of reconstruction on the vacated land—like the phoenix rising—and the knitting together of the torn fabric of the Evergreen neighborhood.

  • 2003 Memphis, TN
    From the OAH President I am most pleased to welcome you to the ninety-sixth annual meeting of the Organization of American Historians. As a small learned society, founded nearly a century ago, our predecessor took its original name from the great river valley in which Memphis sits and took as its symbol the wonderful boats which once traversed the mighty river that still dominates the city. We have long since outgrown the name Mississippi Valley Historical Association, and we are no longer simply a learned society but an organization whose members are engaged as much in the pedagogy and presentation of history as its production. But Memphis and its environs with its Indian mounds and battlefields, its music and its museums, its conflicts over slavery, labor, and civil rights speaks broadly to the struggles for justice which is the theme of this year’s meeting. Photo by John T. Consoli Ira Berlin That theme gains special moment since the second full day of our meeting, Friday, 4 April, marks the thirty-fifth anniversary of the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr., on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel not far from where we are convening. OAH will be joining with the city of Memphis and a variety of civic associations, religious organizations, and labor unions to commemorate that historic moment. Our meeting will reflect upon that tragedy and the struggles that both preceded and followed the murder of Martin Luther King, along with a host of similar struggles as the people of the American colonies and the American republic labored to realize the ideals set forth in the nation’s founding charter.
