Consideration of WCCC Minutes for January 14, 2018 Mayor Doyle moved to approve the minutes for the January 14th WCCC meeting, Mayor Snider seconded. Vote: With all present members voting in favor, the motion passed unanimously Department of Land Use & Transportation Office of the Director 155 N First Avenue, Suite 350, MS 16, Hillsboro, OR 97124-3072 phone: 503-846-4530 • fax: 503-846-3588 www.co.washington.or.us/lut • [email protected] WCCC Meeting Summary February 11, 2019 Page 2 of 3 After vote discussion: Mayor Truax requested a change to the minutes regarding item 6. The minutes have been changed to correct the following sentence: Nay votes expressed displeasure with the TAC not providing a proper recommendation to WCCC members regarding the TDT Update. 4. MSTIP Opportunity Fund Dyami Valentine provided an overview of the MSTIP Opportunity Fund allocation guiding principles and a summary of the program’s success. Since 2012, 39 projects have sought competitive grant opportunities, with 19 projects successfully awarded funds. These successful projects leveraged $5.3M in MSTIP Opportunity funds to secure nearly $35M in regional, state and federal funding. Mr. Valentine noted several upcoming competitive funding opportunities. The fund balance is currently $7.1M. Discussion: There were clarifying questions regarding the process of approving and utilization of MSTIP Opportunity funds. It was reiterated that MSTIP Opportunity funds are only available for competitive grant opportunities and cannot be used to backfill project funding. 5. Cornelius Pass Road Safety Improvement Project Mike Pullen and Riad Alharithi presented an overview of Cornelius Pass Road, between US Highway 30 and Kaiser Road. A 2008 safety audit identified multiple deficiencies, some corridor wide and others in specific locations (8th Ave., “S” curves, Plainview Rd., and Kaiser Rd.). This audit, in addition to multiple traffic incidents, stimulated the improvement project scheduled during the summer of 2019. Cornelius Pass will be closed for the duration of the project (13 weeks: July 8th – October 7th). The presentation included primary detour routes and the strategies to redirect traffic. The projected impact to drivers will be an additional 15- 20 minutes commuting time for standard vehicles, with hazardous freight trucks being redirected to I-5 or Hwy 217. Multnomah County is coordinating with multiple agencies for public outreach using various methods of communication within the involved counties. Additional projects to be completed by neighboring jurisdictions will impact detour routes during construction, but shouldn’t influence the estimated completion date of the improvement project. Discussion: Members asked if noticeable improvements to the “S” curve would be seen. Mr. Pullen clarified the improvements would be focused on reconstructions and safety realignments, rather than straightening the “S” curve. Members requested notification be provided to the neighborhood at least 3 months prior to construction. Additional coordination with Port of Portland is required due to overlapping updates of construction at the Hillsboro Airport and how it will affect additional corporate travel to and from PDX. 6. MAX Red Line Extension and Reliability Improvement Project Kate Lyman presented on the upcoming MAX line extension to provide 10 additional stations on the west end of the line. The extension will accomplish 2 goals: provide more service to the Hillsboro/Beaverton area and support more reliable operation of the entire system. This is a combination project including multiple improvements to the Max line, providing eligibility for federal funding. The timeline for the project begins with design during the spring of 2019 with the anticipated line opening for use in 2023/2024. The Project Advisory Board contains representatives from Washington County and the City of Hillsboro. This project has been adopted into the 2018 RTP. WCCC Meeting Summary February 11, 2019 Page 3 of 3 Discussion: The estimated docking time for the trains will be 2-4 weeks during construction. A Bus Bridge will provide service to the public. Members requested TriMet explore solutions to congestion caused by train cycles traveling through the 185th/Baseline intersection during the design phase. While the need for this extension was not identified specifically in the Climate Smart Strategies, the extension will avoid delays on other areas of the line and support greenhouse gas goals. TriMet is reviewing capacity of parking lots, as key park & ride locations are regularly full. Funding for the project is being requested through the Small Starts grant; Port of Portland is also participating in the process to coordinate construction projects at the airport. 7. MPAC Agenda Mayor Truax shared MPAC is currently receiving nominations for the Vice Chair position. This seat is on a rotation between Multnomah County and Washington County. MPAC discussed submissions for the Planning/Development Grant. The Housing Bond vote passed with 59% approving. The Metro Council has approved the appointment of a bond oversight committee, consisting of 13 members, 3 of whom are Washington County representatives (Serena Cruz, Manuel Casteneda, and Steve Rudman). 8. JPACT Agenda Mayor Doyle provided the topics for the upcoming meeting, including RFFA Funding, MTIP policies and the ODOT Rose Quarter Project. A new JPACT resolution on the Cap and Trade legislation was just sent by email and comments on the resolution are due to Metro by February 13th by 5 p.m. JPACT will discuss items on the work program and noted TV Hwy Corridor

  • APPENDIX B: PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT SUMMARY Public Involvement Plan
    APPENDIX B: PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT SUMMARY Public Involvement Plan DRAFT Public Involvement Plan Hillsboro Transportation System Plan (TSP) Update (REVISED DRAFT 4-29-16) 1. Introduction and Project Background Proactive and effective citizen involvement is a cornerstone of planning practice, and focused public engagement is crucial to achieve success in land use and transportation planning initiatives that often impact the entire community. Hillsboro residents have consistently expressed an expectation that the City prioritize public engagement to maintain transparency and encourage participation through feedback in the Hillsboro 2020 and 2035 visioning projects, including providing avenues for meaningful citizen involvement, access to information, and opportunities for collaboration, with transparent and inclusive public engagement practices. The Hillsboro Transportation System Plan (TSP) is the community’s adopted guide for building and maintaining Hillsboro’s transportation network. To update the TSP, we will study the existing network and envision what Hillsboro needs for the next 20 years. This plan will balance the needs of those using cars, transit, trucks, bikes and walking paths, and we will seek input from residents, businesses, and all transportation system users. The TSP will consider growth plans and trends in the region, while meeting the transportation needs of Hillsboro. The Transportation Planning Rule (TPR), OAR 660 Division 12 requires jurisdictions throughout Oregon to prepare and adopt regional or local transportation plans that serve as the transportation element for their comprehensive plans (660.012.0015 (2) (4)). Hillsboro’s last TSP update was completed in January 2004, and an update is required to respond to transportation, land use, environmental, population growth, economic and social changes in the community.

  • Livable Portland Land Use and Transportation Initiatives
    Livable Portland Land Use and Transportation Initiatives November 2010 Capital Projects 710 NE Holladay Street Portland, OR 97232 503-962-2150 trimet.org Preface At TriMet, we are proud of our contribution to the livability of the Portland region. We have seen enormous growth here since 1969 when the agency was formed. In that time, due to numerous visionary leaders and passionate citizen involvement that increases with each passing year, this region has made great strides in enhancing our sustainability, livability and economic vitality. One of the key tools in making this work has been to integrate land use and transportation planning, policy and development. TriMet’s role is to provide service across our district in ways that encourage the kind of growth this region has said it wants to accommodate in 2040. The result of this marriage of smart transportation investments—particularly transit— and land use planning is more compact, efficient cities that are easier to serve with non-automobile transportation modes. A fundamental measure of our success is whether more people can conveniently meet their needs Neil McFarlane by walking, rolling, biking or transit without adding to traffic congestion, TriMet General Manager emissions and other local, regional and global impacts. Reliable and frequent bus, light rail and streetcar service, combined with attention to bicycle and pedestrian mobility, make it possible for more and more people to choose not to drive for many or all of their daily needs. The numbers tell the story of this region’s success. Between 1997 and 2007, TriMet ridership grew faster than the region’s population, the amount of service we provide, and the number of miles that people drove.

  • Transit Investment Plan
    Transit Investment Plan FY 2012 Transit Investment Plan FY2012 Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation District of Oregon 4012 SE 17th Avenue Portland, Oregon 97202 The most current version of this document is available at trimet.org/tip System map Dear Reader, This update of TriMet’s Transit Investment Plan (TIP) comes at a very challenging time in our agency’s history. We are still experiencing the impacts from one of the worst recessions in memory. We’ve made service cuts which have had an undeniable impact on our riders. And we are not out of the woods yet. We continue to face a tough economy and federal budget uncertainties that could further impact our level of service. With a growing ridership – now over 100 million trips on the TriMet system for fiscal year 2011 – we know that people want more service. That’s why in this difficult economic environment, TriMet is working to bring more and better service to the region by focusing on our customers, ensuring financial stability and building partnerships for transit growth. With those three areas of emphasis, we are taking a proactive approach in navigating the changing economic landscape. As our resources permit, we will use the criteria outlined in the TIP as a guide for where to restore service and how we grow the system. Getting input from you – our riders, the public and our jurisdictional partners – is important as we work together to make these choices. We recently celebrated the 25th anniversary of the start of our MAX system, the Blue Line between downtown Portland and Gresham.

  • Comments on the Draft Plan Bay Area John A. Charles, Jr. President
    Comments on the Draft Plan Bay Area John A. Charles, Jr. President & CEO Cascade Policy Institute, Portland OR May 13, 2013 Introduction The fundamental GHG reduction strategy embedded within the Plan emulates the land- use/transportation philosophy that has been in effect for over three decades in Portland, Oregon. The assumption behind this concept is that individual travel patterns can be significantly and permanently altered through a combination of regulatory interventions in the market: strict limits on new roadway construction, massive expenditures on new transit service (especially light rail), and land-use mandates that both require and subsidize mixed-use, high-density development in transit corridors while simultaneously prohibiting lower-density growth. A partial list of plans and policies (state, regional and local) demonstrating this commitment includes the following: • Creation of a regional public transit district (TriMet) for the Portland metro area in 1969. This agency has a dedicated source of non-farebox revenue – a regional payroll tax -- that provides TriMet with stable and growing general fund revenues that are 70% higher than peer agencies. • Cancellation of a planned urban freeway for east Portland in 1975, with the federal funds for that project transferred to TriMet to allow construction of one of North America’s first light rail lines, which opened in 1986; • Adoption of a regional Urban Growth Boundary in 1979, which prohibits most forms of land development outside of existing built-up neighborhoods; • Cancellation
