The LPMG will receive a similar presentation, which is attached. The RFI is a critical step in the procurement process and provides up-to-date information about the EMU industry. With this information, staff can begin to more clearly understand the availability of “off-the-shelf” EMUs that can be best utilized for electrified Caltrain service. There are two phases of public outreach related to the design of the EMUs. The first phase, which kicked-off at the August Board meeting, involves soliciting input on key structural and capacity elements such as bathrooms, seats and standees, and bike capacity. Public feedback during the Phase I outreach will be coupled with technical analysis to inform staff recommendations to the Board for the EMU Request for Proposal, scheduled to be released in early 2015.

Bendix, K. Gardiner, J. Hronowski, B. Jensen, A. Levin, D. Lindsey, Y. Mills, A. Sweet, C. Tucker MEMBERS ABSENT: None STAFF PRESENT: K. Antion, J. Averill, J. Buckingham, D. Honn (TASI), A. Maguigad, S. Murphy Chair Kevin Gardner called the meeting to order at 5:51 p.m. and led the Pledge of Allegiance. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A motion (Tucker/Hronowski) to approve the minutes of January 16, 2013 was approved. PUBLIC COMMENT Jeff Carter, Millbrae, said San Mateo County and cities in the area have initiated a ban on plastic grocery bags in stores and this makes it cumbersome and inconvenient for transit riders to get their things home. Doug DeLong, Mountain View, said Caltrain could experience a service meltdown because it is attracting too much business. He said when there are more passengers, all the slack in the system gets consumed and everything starts running late. He said he hopes some thought has been given to service redesign so when the problem with increased ridership starts affecting the system the JPB will be ready to take appropriate action. COMMUNICATIONS-BASED OVERLAY SIGNAL SYSTEM (CBOSS) UPDATE – J. Buckingham Project Manager Jack Buckingham presented: Background: o A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued in August of 2010 and awarded in October of 2011. o A service agreement with California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) for Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) funding was executed in December 2011.
