CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF THE OCTOBER 30, 2008, MEETING

A motion to approve the minutes as published was made by Ms. Feldt, seconded by Mr. Brandrup, and unanimously approved by the Committee.

CONSIDERATION OF CHAPTER III, “LAND USE AND TRAVEL PATTERNS”, OF SEWRPC COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE PLANNING REPORT NO. 281, “KENOSHA COUNTY TRANSIT DEVELOPMENT PLAN: 2010-2014”

Mr. Yunker reviewed with the Committee the third chapter of the Kenosha County transit development plan on a section-by-section basis. During the review, the following questions were raised and addressed:

1. Referring to the Kenosha County disabled population identified in Table 3-4 on page 3a, Ms. Feldt stated that the number and percent of the County population shown was much lower than she was used to seeing. She asked how the disabled population had been defined for the table. Mr. Beck and Ms. Dubielzig stated that the definition, identified in footnote “b” to the table, included persons age 16 and older having a physical, mental, or emotional condition lasting for six or more months that made it difficult to go outside the home to shop or visit a doctor’s office. Mr. Beck noted that this definition identified those persons who would most closely match the disabled population identified as eligible to use complementary paratransit services that are required by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 such as the Care-a-Van service provided for Kenosha Area Transit. Ms. Feldt suggested that a broader definition such as that used for the American Community Survey should be used in identifying the disabled population for the Kenosha County transit development plan, noting that disabled persons as a whole are more likely to need public transit service. Mr. Yunker stated that staff would look at the definitions used for the decennial census and by the American Community Survey, and include the most appropriate numbers in Table 3-4.

[Secretary’s Note: The American Community Survey used a broad general definition of “disability” as follows:

“A long-lasting physical, mental, or emotional condition. This condition can make it difficult for a person to do activities such as walking, climbing stairs, dressing, bathing, learning, or remembering. This condition can also impede a person from being able to go outside the home alone or to work at a job or business.”

The 2000 Census data for disabled persons presented in Table 3-4 was based on a more targeted definition. However, the 2000 Census also collected information using the general definition of disability used for the American Community Survey, and the Census data for the year 2000 has been revised to use the general definition. This definition results in a total disabled population of 23,695 persons in Kenosha County, or about 16 percent of the total County population in the year 2000. Comparable data cannot be generated for the 1980 and 1990 Censuses as there was no general disability status question included in the Census for those years. In addition, Table 3-4 has been

-3- expanded to include estimates for all the transit dependant population groups taken from the 2007 American Community Survey. A revised copy of Table 3-4 is included in Attachment 1. The first four sentences in the first bulleted paragraph on page 3 have been revised as follows:

“Persons in low-income households accounted for the largest share of the transit- dependent population in the County estimated for the year 2007, constituting about 25 percent of the total County population. The elderly population and school-age children groups represented smaller, but significant, segments of the total County population, at about 11 percent. The disabled population represented about 16 percent of the population and the households with no vehicle available represented 7 percent of total County households.“

The first sentence in the second bulleted paragraph on page 3 has been revised to strike the reference to persons with disabilities.]

2. Referring to the employment density for the year 2000 shown in Map 3-4 on page 4b, Mr. Battle noted that the employment densities shown on that map did not always match up well with the number of employees indicated for major employers shown on Map 3-8. Mr. Yunker stated that the two maps used different years for the employment data being presented and essentially represent different ways of looking at the same information. He noted that the employment data for the year 2000 had been presented in Map 3-4 by U.S. Public Land Survey quarter-sections instead of by employer as done for the year 2009 in Map 3-8. Mr. Cyr stated that using an area smaller than a quarter-section to calculate employment density might have indicated greater employment density.

3. Committee members commented on the major activity centers identified in Chapter III on Map 3-7. Ms. Phillips stated that both Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club would be relocating to the new Somers Market Center at STH 31 and CTH S in the near future. Mr. Labahn stated that he also had some minor revisions to the commercial centers in Table 3-7 and to the governmental and institutional centers in Table 3-10, and that he would email them to the Commission staff. Mr. Brandrup and Mr. Holland identified changes to the list of major employers in Table 3-11 including the relocation of the Rust-Oleum warehouse and distribution center from the Village of Pleasant Prairie to the Town of Somers and two proposed new employment centers: Affiliated Foods Midwest north of the Kenosha Regional Airport and Gordon Food Service east of the Business Park of Kenosha. Mr. Herr noted that Abbot Labs, Inc. and Uline, Inc. had also proposed building facilities in Pleasant Prairie. Mr. Pollocoff requested that the developments proposed by Abbot Labs and other employers be identified in the Chapter III. Mr. Torstenson requested that an industrial park in the Village of Twin Lakes at the intersection of CTH F and CTH O be included in the list of office and industrial parks presented in Table 3-12.

Mr. Yunker stated that staff would revise the major activity centers identified in Chapter II as necessary to reflect the changes identified by Committee members and provide copies of the revised Tables in the meeting minutes. He also indicated that a new section would be added to the Chapter that would identify major proposed developments including Abbot Labs. Ms. Dubielzig stated that staff would also include in this section information on recent residential development that has occurred since the year 2000.

[Secretary’s Note: Based on comments received by Committee members, the following changes were made to the major activity centers identified in Chapter III: in Table 3-7, the location of the Kenosha Uptown Business District was expanded to include 63rd Street between 22nd

-4- avenue and 24th Avenue, and the new Somers Market Center at the intersection STH 31 and CTH S has been added; in Table 3-10, the Kenosha Public Museum was expanded to include the Civil War Museum; in Table 3-11, the location of Rust-Oleum was changed to 8505 50th Street, the location of Wal-Mart was changed to the intersection of STH 31and CTH S in the Town of Somers, and the new Sam’s Club was also shown at this location; and in Table 3-12, the Twin Lakes Industrial Park, located at the intersection of CTH F and CTH O, has been added. Revised copies of these tables and Maps 3-7, 3-8, and 3-9 are included in Attachment 2. A new Table 3-12A and a new Map 3-9A (both included in Attachment 3) have been prepared showing the locations of proposed major commercial and office developments within the County as of July 2009 and the residential development that has occurred since June 2000. The following new text has been added on page 6 after the section on major activity centers describing recent and proposed development in the County:

“New and Proposed development Continued increases in residential and commercial development within the County may be expected in the near future based upon recent development trends and proposals. Map 3-9A shows where residential development has occurred since June 2000. Table 3- 12A identifies proposed new commercial and office developments within the County that were under construction or had been proposed as of July 2009. Some of the identified residential areas and commercial/industrial development may be considered for bus service under the alternative service improvements identified in Chapter VI.”]

4. Mr. Battle noted that while the knowing the locations of major employers was important for making decisions on where transit service should be provided, information was needed on the work shifts at the employers in order to prepare bus schedules that would be capable of serving the jobs at each employer. Mr. Herr noted that Kenosha Area Transit had received a petition with many signatures supporting evening bus service, in particular for second shift jobs, and that information was needed on the number of jobs by work shift at the major employers in order for staff to respond. Mr. Brandrup stated that information on employment by work shift would help staff gain perspective on the “density” of need for evening transit service. He noted that serving this need could entail using small buses or vans, or even using carpools and vanpools.

Mr. Yunker stated that staff would look into collecting employment data by work shift and report how it will address this request in the meeting minutes.

[Secretary’s Note: Commission staff contacted the major employers identified in Table 3-11 to obtain estimates of the number of jobs at each employer by work shift time. This information will be presented in Chapter V under the systemwide evaluation of the existing transit services.]

5. Committee members commented on the total person travel data being developed by Commission staff for inclusion on page 7 of Chapter III. Mr. Brandrup noted that Abbott Labs is currently perceived as the largest employer for the Kenosha County population and believed that the travel data would reflect this. He also was interested in the trips being made into the County to the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. Mr. Herr stated that he was interested in learning about the travel patterns of the residents of the western part of the County, in particular, if most of their travel occurred within that part of the County. Mr. Yunker stated that the data from the 2001 survey of household travel presented in the chapter would identify the trip movements between Kenosha County and Lake County in Illinois and to the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, as well as the trip movements made by residents of western Kenosha County. He indicated that the

-5- section of Chapter III presenting the travel data would be included in an attachment to the meeting minutes (see Attachment 4).

6. Referring to Table 3-15 presenting the socioeconomic characteristics of the passengers using Kenosha Area Transit developed from the Commission’s 2001 on-bus travel survey, Ms. Feldt commented the six percent of total ridership on the regular routes of Kenosha Area Transit that was reported as being elderly (age 65 and over) in the Commission’s 2001 on-bus survey was lower that she would expect. Mr. Beck stated that staff would obtain recent passenger count data by fare type for Kenosha Area Transit and compare the percentage of riders paying with the reduced fare charged to elderly person with the percentage of elderly riders identified with the on-bus survey.

[Secretary’s Note: Passenger counts taken by fare category during January and February 2009 indicated that about 13 percent of the boarding passengers on Kenosha Area Transit paid for their trip using the elderly and disabled cash or pass fares. Part of the difference between this figure and the six percent elderly riders observed in the Commission’s 2001 on-bus survey is due to the inclusion of disabled riders in the passenger counts provided by Kenosha Area Transit. There may also be some underreporting of trips made by elderly passengers in the 2001 survey data as some elderly passengers may have decided against completing a survey due to its length or perceived complexity.]

7. Referring to the text discussing the on-board bus survey of passengers using Western Kenosha County Transit conducted in March 2009, Ms. Dubielzig stated that the first sentence in the first paragraph on page 8 should be revised to specify that about two-thirds of the estimated number of weekday boarding passengers on the transit system in March 2009 returned a completed survey.

There being no further discussion on the chapter, a motion to approve Chapter III as amended was made by Mr. Melcher and seconded by Mr. Battle. Mr. Brandrup stated that the data from the Commission 2001 travel surveys was critical information missing from Chapter III and still needed to be reviewed and approved by the Advisory Committee. Mr. Yunker stated that the motion was to approve Chapter III without the travel data section and that the Committee would be asked to review and approve that section with the meeting minutes. The motion was approved unanimously by the Advisory Committee.

CONSIDERATION OF CHAPTER IV, “PUBLIC TRANSIT SERVICE OBJECTIVES AND STANDARDS”, OF SEWRPC COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE PLANNING REPORT NO. 281, “KENOSHA COUNTY TRANSIT DEVELOPMENT PLAN: 2010-2014”

Mr. Yunker reviewed with the Committee the fourth chapter of the Kenosha County transit development plan on a section-by-section basis. During the review, the following questions and comments were raised and addressed:

1. Mr. Brandrup noted that a current goal in the transit industry is to capture a higher percentage of the trips currently being made using the automobile. He noted that the Kenosha transit system provides minimal service in terms of its hours of operation and frequency of service, and that improvements would need to be made in these areas for the system to compete with the automobile and gain a larger share of the trips made in the Kenosha area.

2. Mr. Brandrup stated that he was not comfortable with using the phrase “at the lowest possible cost” in Objective No. 3. He noted that if you strictly observed that wording, no improvements

-6- would be made to the transit system that would result in increases in system costs. Mr. Yunker responded the intent of the wording was to look for the most efficient cost level when you compare the costs of the alternative plans under consideration. Mr. Cyr suggested substituting the phrase “most effective possible cost” for “lowest possible cost” in the Objective No. 3.

3. In response to a question from Mr. Labahn, Mr. Beck stated that the standards were similar to what has been used across the transit industry and noted that some of the industry standards had been customized for the specific services that currently are being, or could be, provided in Kenosha County.

4. Mr. Brandrup asked if the mode of transit service was something that should be expanded upon in the objectives and standards. He referenced the planning work for the Kenosha-Racine- service, noting that the study proposes taking a different approach to providing transit service than using a diesel bus. Mr. Yunker responded that the objectives and standards did not necessarily have to address different transit modes but they would be are able to measure the differences between them.

5. In response to a question from Mr. Torstenson on the timeframe for implementing the KRM commuter rail service, Mr. Yunker stated that the first thing needed for the KRM project was the creation of a permanent RTA as proposed in legislation for the 2009-2011 State budget. He indicated the next steps would include completing preliminary and final engineering for the project after which construction of the rail line and acquisition of vehicles and other equipment could proceed. He identified a timeline for completing the project of about five years.

6. Mr. Herr inquired about the timeframe for the recommendations of the transit system development plan. Mr. Yunker and Mr. Brandrup stated that the plan recommendations have traditionally covered an upcoming five-year period and that the new plan for the Kenosha transit system was overdue. Mr. Yunker stated that the delay in completing the plan was partly related to the current financial crisis faced by public transit systems. He explained that some transit systems do not see a purpose in having a plan for making service improvements if the available funding levels translate into a continuing need to make service cuts. He noted that the proposed legislation to create a permanent Regional Transit Authority (RTA) in southeastern Wisconsin called for the new RTA to develop funding plans for the local transit systems based on five-year transit service plans for each county that would identify desired public transit services and their requisite funding levels, and the Kenosha County transit system development plan could serve as the service plan needed by the RTA. He stated that the Commission also works with the transit operators in preparing the Commission’s long-range (30-year) transportation system plan to incorporate the recommendations of transit system development plans into the initial stage of the regional plan.

7. Mr. Brandrup stated that the service standards identified in Chapter IV were important for the City and County transit systems as they provide parameters that identify where and how transit service should be provided. He noted that even if the transit development plan was not up to date, the service standards can help guide decisions on making service improvements. Mr. Yunker added that the standards would also be useful in evaluating existing transit services.

8. Mr. Pollocoff asked how the existing headways and schedules for Kenosha Area Transit would be evaluated for providing appropriate service to employers for their work shifts. Mr. Brandrup replied that the transit system looks at the major employers and determines which employers to focus on, then establishes schedules that provide bus service to those employers when service is

-7- needed. He noted the system cannot serve all work shifts due in part to its current service hours which do not begin early enough to serve all first shift jobs.

9. In response to a question from Ms. Feldt concerning the standards in Tables 4-1 and 4-2 where two dashes (“- -“) were included in the right-hand column of the tables, Mr. Beck stated that the dashes indicated that the standards would not be used in the performance evaluation. He indicated that the standards for which this occurred were typically standards which were used in the design of the existing transit system and the alternatives. Mr. Yunker stated that staff would look at those standards for the evaluation chapter to determine if some useful information could be provided, possibly to help understand unmet transit service needs.

10. Mr. Holland suggested that consideration be given to adding an objective to Chapter IV that would assess the environmental benefits of providing public transit such as reducing automobile travel, air pollution, and energy consumption. Mr. Yunker stated that staff had measured the impacts which public transit can have on arterial street and highway facilities and in reducing energy consumption for other studies. He stated that staff would include look at including one additional objective to address such potential benefits of the public transit system and provide that objective in the meeting minutes.

[Secretary’s Note: An objective that addresses the environmental benefits of public transit was inserted into the text of Chapter IV on page 2 after Objective No. 2 as a new Objective No. 3. The former Objective No. 3 was renumbered to become Objective No. 4. The new Objective No. 3 has the following wording:

“The public transit system should promote efficiency in the total transportation system and help minimize the amount of energy consumed to serve travel by the residents of the transit service area.”

The objective is supported by the following principle:

“Public transit facilities and services can promote economy and efficiency in the total transportation system. The transit system has the potential to supply additional passenger transportation capacity, which can alleviate peak loadings on arterial street facilities and assist in reducing the demand for land necessary for parking facilities at major activity centers. Efficient transit service also has the potential to reduce energy consumption, particularly petroleum based fuels, and air pollutant emissions.”

Two performance standards were included under the new Objective No. 3 as follows:

“1. The amount of highway system capacity which must be provided to serve travel demand should be minimized

2. The total amount of energy and the total amount of energy per passenger mile consumed in operating the total transportation system of which the public transit system is an integral part, particularly petroleum-based fuels, should be minimized.”

Tables 4-1 and 4-2 will be revised to include the new objective, principle, and performance standards for the final report.]

-8- There being no further discussion on the chapter, a motion to approve Chapter IV as amended was made by Mr. Holland, seconded by Mr. Major, and approved unanimously by the Committee.

The following text has been inserted at the top of page 7 of Chapter III.

Total Person Travel Characteristics The Commission’s household travel survey was conducted in the autumn of 2001 and was based on a sample size of about 17,000 households, or about 2 percent of the households in the Region. Table 3-14 displays the distributions of person trips1 in the County in 2001 by trip purpose and by internal and external trips. Internal trips have both trip ends within the County; external trips have one trip end within the County and the other trip end either in a different area within the seven-county Southeastern Wisconsin Region or in a different area outside the Region.

To facilitate analysis of 2001 person-travel, the County was divided into 31 internal analysis areas, and the area outside the County was divided into 21 external analysis areas, including 13 areas comprising the remainder of the Southeastern Wisconsin Region and seven areas comprising northeastern Illinois. The generalized patterns and volumes of the person trips made in 2001 between the internal analysis areas within the County, and between the County and the external analysis areas are shown on Maps 3-11 and 3-12, respectively. Trips are shown on the maps in produced-attracted format—that is, from area of production to area of attraction. The production area for a trip having one end at “home”—that is either beginning at or ending at home—is the area containing the location of the “home”, and the attraction area is the area containing the “non-home” end of that trip. The production area for trips having neither end at “home” is the area containing the location of the trip origin and the attraction county is the county location of the trip destination. Maps 3-11 and 3-12 illustrate the generalized pattern of the largest and most concentrated volumes of the person trips made on an average weekday in 2001. The following observations relevant to person travel in Kenosha County and between the County and adjacent counties may be made on the basis of an examination of this information:

A person trip was defined as a one-way journey between a point of origin and a point of destination by a person five years of age or older traveling as an auto driver or as a passenger in an auto, taxi, truck, motorcycle, school bus, or other mass transit carrier. To be considered, the trip must have been at least the equivalent of one full city block in length. EDL/edl 6/8/09 Doc# #144481 v1 - Kenosha TDP 09 - Table 3-14

Total 473,700 100.0 538,400 100.0 64,700 13.7

aThe trip data were grouped into five categories of travel purpose: home-based work trips, home-based shopping trips, home-based other trips, nonhome-based trips, and school-based trips. Home-based work trips are defined as trips having one end at the place of residence of the tripmaker and the other end at the place of work. Home-based shopping trips are defined as trips having one end at the place of residence of the tripmaker and the other end at a shopping place of destination. Home-based other trips are defined as trips having one end at the place of residence of the tripmaker and the other end at a place of destination other than home, work, shopping, or school. Such trips would include trips made for social, recreational, medical, and personal business. Nonhome-based trips are defined as trips that neither originate nor end at home. School-based trips are defined as having at least one end at school.

APPROXIMATELY 133,300 OF ABOUT 167,400 TOTAL TRIPS BETWEEN KENOSHA COUNTY AND SURROUNDING COUNTIES, OR ABOUT 80 PERCENT, ARE SHOWN HERE. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE INTERNAL TRIPS BETWEEN EASTERN AND WESTERN KENOSHA COUNTY.

Source: SEWRPC. 7d  About 538,400 person trips with either the origin or destination within Kenosha County, including both internal and external trips, were made on an average weekday in 2001. This represents an increase of about 14 percent over the approximately 473,700 Kenosha County trips observed in 1991.

 About 371,000 of the 538,400 Kenosha County person trips, or about 69 percent, were made totally within Kenosha County in 2001, with the largest number being home-based other trips, such as trips made for medical, personal business, or social or recreational purposes. The pattern of internal person trips shown on Map 3-11 reflects the locations and concentrations of employment and activity centers in the County, with the heaviest volumes of trips observed between the City of Kenosha proper and the areas immediately outside the City (see the inset for Map 3-11). Within this area, there is a base of weekday person trips made virtually in all directions from each analysis area. A large proportion of these trips occurred between immediately adjacent analysis areas and had a trip length of two to three miles. The generalized pattern shown on the Map 3-11 inset illustrates that much of the heaviest person-trip activity occurs in a “cross-town” type of pattern, focused on the west side of the City of Kenosha. A circumferential pattern of trips is also evident along the west, southwest, and south sides of the City of Kenosha. While significant person trip volumes were also focused on the Kenosha CBD, the CBD-oriented trip volumes were less than the trip volumes focused on the City’s west side.

 The remaining 167,400 person trips, or about 31 percent of the 538,400 average weekday Kenosha County person trips, were made with one trip end external to the County. Most of these trips— 80,200, or about 48 percent—were made for work purposes. Trips between Kenosha County and Racine County accounted for about 66,200 trips, or about 40 percent of all external person trips. Trips between Kenosha County and Lake County, Illinois accounted for about 55,200 trips, or about 33 percent, of all external person trips. Together, trips to these two adjacent counties accounted for about 121,400 trips, or about 73 percent of all external trips. About 16,300 person trips, or about 10 percent of all external person trips, were made between Kenosha County and Milwaukee County on an average weekday.
