Bring Back the Streetcars : a Conservative Vision of Tomorrow's
Bring Back the Streetcars! A Conservative Vision of Tomorrow's Urban Transportation by Paul M. Weyrich and William S. Lind .... Free~• Foundation This study of public transportation by the Free Congress Research and Education Foundation was underwritten by the private sector Business Members of the American Public Transportation Association. The views expressed are those of the authors. Public Transportation Partnership for Tomorrow Washington, DC June 2002 BRING BACK THE STREETCARS! A Conservative Vision of Tomorrow’s Urban Transportation A Study Prepared by the Free Congress Research and Education Foundation By Paul M. Weyrich and William S. Lind The Free Congress Foundation 717 Second Street Washington, DC 20002 (202) 546-3000 June 2002 Contents Executive Summary 1 Introduction: What’s Right with This Picture? 3 Bring Back the Streetcars! 6 The Context: Restoring Our Cities and Building New Towns 6 What Is a Streetcar? 9 Vintage and Heritage Streetcars 12 Who Else Is Doing It? 13 What Does It Cost? 18 Three Case Studies: 21 Dallas, Texas 21 Memphis, Tennessee 24 Portland, Oregon 28 Conclusion 32 Appendices: 34 Appendix I: Getting Started 34 Appendix II: The Gomaco Trolley Company 37 Appendix III: Resources 39 Notes 40 E xecutive Summary For more than half a century, the context in which public transport operated was suburbanization. But recently, that has begun to change. Urban downtowns are reviving, and new towns are being built to traditional patterns. Not only can streetcars serve these non- suburban areas, they need streetcars in order to flourish. Streetcars – which we define as rail transit vehicles designed for local transportation, powered by electricity received from an overhead wire – differ from both buses and Light Rail. -
April 1, 2019 Strategy Session Minutes Book 147, Page 914
April 1, 2019 Strategy Session Minutes Book 147, Page 914 STRATEGY SESSION The City Council of the City of Charlotte, North Carolina convened for a Strategy Session on Monday, April 1, 2019 at 5:09 p.m. in Room 267 of the Charlotte Mecklenburg Government Center with Mayor Vi Lyles presiding. Councilmembers present were Dimple Ajmera, Tariq Bokhari, Ed Driggs, Larken Egleston, LaWana Mayfield, Matt Newton, Greg Phipps, and Braxton Winston II. ABSENT UNTIL NOTED: Councilmembers Julie Eiselt and Justin Harlow ABSENT: Councilmember James Mitchell * * * * * * * ITEM NO. 1: AFFORDABLE HOUSING REVIEW AND APPROVAL PROCESS Councilmember Winston said this is the fourth time we are dealing with this; what is the expectation here? Are we moving forward; is there some type of vote that needs to happen? Mayor Lyles said I think at the end of the last meeting, what I said was that we approved a contract two-years ago with LISC to do this work with us. The staff is making a recommendation that we do it this way; the Manager recommends it, but like any other Manager, I think he would at least like to know that he has the confidence of a majority of Council to move forward. What I would like to do is have Ms. Wideman go through it and then if we can, after our questions, just raise our hands and say we are ready to move forward that that would be all that would be needed. It is an informal without a motion vote. Mr. Winston said is this going to be basically a recap of what we’ve been talking about over the past – Mayor Lyles said I have not seen the presentation yet, so let’s see. -

Appendix A: Charge to the Special Transit Advisory Commission Page
Appendix A: Charge to the Special Transit Advisory Commission Joint MPO STAC Charge to the Commission The Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Metropolitan Planning Organization (DCHC MPO) and the N.C. Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) have concluded that providing well- planned and timely major regional transit investments is a very important part of maintaining the Triangle region’s current levels of transportation mobility, high quality of life and economic prosperity. Therefore, the MPOs have agreed to pursue the joint development of a Regional Transit Vision Plan for a regional transit system to serve as the foundation for making comprehensive, cooperative, and well- coordinated decisions on future major transit investments. The development of this plan should include a robust public outreach/community engagement effort and a process for establishing priorities for regional transit investments. The two MPOs have also agreed to appoint a Joint MPO Special Transit Advisory Commission to assist them in the development of the Regional Transit Vision Plan (RTVP). This commission will deliver to the region’s two MPOs a set of recommended major transit investments to serve the Triangle based on: Guiding principles for transit investments The Transit Infrastructure Blueprint Project analysis Priorities for transit investments A community engagement process Tasks To accomplish its overall mission, the commission may engage in any and all of the following focus areas. MPO and other staff will provide technical assistance to the commission for these tasks. 1. Review existing transit plans and relevant sections of the 2030 Long Range Transportation Plans, including the goals and objectives stated in those plans.
