7.6 REGIONALLY SIGNIFICANT TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENTS
The list of street and highway projects eligible for Federal aid funding following in this section is fiscally-constrained to reasonably available local, state, and federal revenues. Project costs take inflation into account and appear in year-of-expenditure dollars. Therefore, project costs for future years appear higher than what they would cost if constructed today. As is described in Section 7.3, federal funding levels were identified based on past trends within the Omaha-Council Bluffs region. Local revenues were identified based on local financial reports and identified operations & maintenance costs.
These projects listed in this LRTP are considered eligible for Federal-Aid funding by the MPO. Projects will be selected for Federal aid funding as they go through the MPO’s project selection and prioritization process for the TIP, while some projects may be advanced using solely local funding sources. The following sections divide the projects between Regionally Significant Roadway & Trail Projects, Regionally Significant Transit Investments, and Illustrative Projects.
7.5.1– REGIONALLY SIGNIFICANT ROADWAY & TRAIL INVESTMENTS The tables that follow this section include regionally significant roadway and trail projects identified from the 2035 Long Range Transportation Plan and the scenario planning process described earlier in this chapter. These investments represent the federal-aid eligible portion of this LRTP as the total funding for both local and state projects has been
The FY2016-2019 Transportation Improvement Program serves as the four-year implementation program of this plan. Projects identified in this TIP are included in the first band of projects within this project list.

7.7 FISCAL CONSTRAINT OVERVIEW FOR ROADWAY & TRAIL PROJECTS
In order to demonstrate fiscal constraint of the projects and revenues identified in this chapter, MAPA has included Tables 7.13 (below) and & 7.14 (next page). These tables correlates the anticipated federal-aid highway revenues, local revenues, and estimated project costs to summarize the analysis conducted within this chapter. The positive balances shown in Table 7.13 below demonstrates that the identified Federal-Aid program of projects is fiscally constrained. Balances in the short-term bucket reflects the inability to program funding by year for non-regional sources of federal funding.
Table 7.14 (next page) summarizes non-federal-aid revenue and expenditures identified within this plan. The maps that follow this section show identified Federal-Aid investments, non-federal-aid projects, and all projects together.

MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program v
Definitions Apportionment – Yearly funds allocated to each state by Congress to design and construct federal aid transportation projects.
Carryover – Federal funds which were not spent in a past fiscal year that can be used to pay for projects in future fiscal years.
Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) – Manages the transit funds from FTA and approves and selects transit projects for disabled citizens, veterans, and seniors throughout the Omaha-Council Bluffs transportation management area.
Environmental Justice (EJ) – The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to federal law. An EJ area or region within the Omaha-Council Bluffs area is an area that has higher than the regional average of lower income or higher minority populations.
Fiscal Constraint - the ability of a government agency to maintain its current project spending over the course of several fiscal years within the funding available while still keeping a positive budget as well as delivering promised projects.
Fiscal Year – A period used for calculating annual costs and expenditures involving budgeted phases of projects. The beginning of a fiscal year usually differs from a calendar year.
Federal Aid Process – A program administered by the Federal Highway Administration which provides funding for the majority of a transportation project (usually 80% but the percentage can differ) that is constructed by a local public agency while following the rules and regulations involved in receiving federal funds.
Federal Transit Authority (FTA) – is the agency within the US Department of Transportation that provides financial and technical assistance to local public transit systems.
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) - is a division of the US Department of Transportation that specializes in highway transportation and provides guidance and approval for all of the regions federal funds as well as the Federal Aid Process.
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) – Systems that use computer, electronics, and communications technologies and management strategies – in an integrated manner – to provide traveler information that increases the safety and efficiency of the surface transportation system. ITS also provides useful, real-time information to system operators.
Iowa Department of Transportation (IDOT) - The statewide agency that administers federal funding allocation and apportionment for FHWA for all federally funded projects in the State of Iowa.
Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) - A comprehensive plan projecting the transportation needs for the Omaha-Council Bluffs metro area over the next 25 years through projects, plans, projections, and proposed solutions to improve movement of goods and people throughout the area. Additionally, in order to be eligible for federal funding and projects must be listed in the LRTP as required by the Federal Highway Administration.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program vi
MAP-21- Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) is the funding and authorization bill that governs federal surface transportation spending and is the source of all federal funds that the region receives.
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) – a planning body required by the federal government which is responsible for the transportation planning and project selection in its region. It provides a forum for cooperative decision making for the metropolitan planning area. The governor designates an MPO in every urbanized area with a population of more than 50,000. MAPA has been designated this area’s MPO by the governors of both Nebraska and Iowa.
National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) – Law signed by Congress in 1969 that guides all federal government agencies to prepare documentation of the environmental effects of proposed federal aid projects.
Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) – The statewide agency that administers federal funding allocation and apportionment for FHWA for all federally funded projects in the State of Nebraska.
Obligation – Money that has been approved by the Federal Highway Administration and either NDOR or IDOT and set aside for a particular project. The money is usually reserved for several years as long as the project it was reserved for is still active.
Project Selection Committee (ProSeCom) - Manages the surface transportation funds from FHWA and approves and selects road, bridge, and maintenance projects throughout the Omaha-Council Bluffs transportation management area.
Surface Transportation Program (STP) Funding – The transportation funds apportioned by Congress and designated to MAPA through NDOR and IDOT to construct road, bridge, and maintenance projects in the transportation management area.
Title VI – Part of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that says “No person in the United States shall, on the grounds of race, color or national origin be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance”
Transit - a shared public passenger transport service which is available for use by the general public, as (distinct from modes such as taxis or carpooling) that follow prescribed routes or regular schedules. Public transport modes include buses, trolleys, bus rapid transit, trams, trains, airlines, and light rail systems.
Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) Funding – The transportation alternative funds (formerly the Transportation Enhancement program) designated to MAPA through NDOR and IDOT to construct projects in the transportation management area.
Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C) - Manages the transportation alternative funds from FHWA and approves and selects trail, bicycle, pedestrian, and multi-modal projects throughout the Omaha-Council Bluffs transportation management area.
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) - A 6-year financial program that describes the schedule for obligating federal funds to state and local projects. State, regional and local transportation agencies update the program each year to reflect priority projects in the metro area. The TIP has four years of fiscally constrained projects and two later years called illustrative years where the projects have not been ranked or scored.

Introduction
1.1 Metropolitan Area Planning Agency Overview The Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Area Planning Agency (MAPA) is a voluntary association of local governments in the greater Omaha-Council Bluffs region. Chartered in 1967, the MAPA Council of Governments (COG) performs planning and development work to address problems that are regional in scope and multijurisdictional in nature. The general MAPA COG region covers five counties in Nebraska and Iowa. These counties include Douglas, Sarpy, and Washington Counties in Nebraska and Pottawattamie and Mills Counties in Iowa.
Organizationally, MAPA is led by an executive director who is supported by a staff of 18 full time employees. MAPA is split into four departments: Finance and Operations, Transportation, Heartland 2050, and Community/Economic Development. MAPA’s planners, administrators, and support staff work to implement regionally significant projects within the MAPA TMA boundary.
1.1.1 MAPA as a Metropolitan Planning Organization MAPA serves as the designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Omaha-Council Bluffs region. MPOs are mandated to exist by Federal transportation legislation to serve five (5) core functions:
1. Establish a fair and impartial setting for regional decision-making in the metropolitan area 2. Evaluate transportation alternatives, scaled to the size and complexity of the region, to the nature of its transportation issues, and to the realistically available options, 3. Develop and maintain a fiscally constrained long-range transportation plan for the jurisdictional with a planning horizon of at least twenty (20) years that fosters: a. Mobility and access for people and goods b. Efficient system performance and preservation, and c. Quality of life 4. Develop a fiscally constrained program based on the long range transportation plan and designed to serve regional goals 5. Involve the general public and all significantly affected sub-groups in each of the four functions as shown above
The MAPA MPO planning area is a sub-area of the MAPA COG region. MAPA’s Transportation Management Area (TMA) is the area in which federal funding apportioned to the MAPA MPO may be used. Federal legislation requires that the TMA include the entire US Census Urbanized Area. The Census Urbanized Area is updated with every decennial census to include areas that meet the character and nature of adjacent urbanized areas.
The MAPA TMA is shown in Figure 1.1 and includes the entirety of Douglas and Sarpy Counties in Nebraska along with the western portion of Pottawattamie County surrounding Council Bluffs, Iowa. Recently, the MAPA TMA boundary has extended into northeastern Cass County, Nebraska based upon the expanded 2010 US Census Urbanized Area Boundary.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 1-1
Figure 1.1 – MAPA Transportation Management Area (TMA)
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 1-2
Based on information from the 2010-2014 American Community Survey, the MAPA TMA is home to approximately 767,000 people. The Transportation Management Area covers the core urbanized portion of the largest metropolitan area in Nebraska and Iowa. 1.1.2 MAPA Committee Structure The governing body for MAPA is a 64 member Council of Officials, with members representing cities, counties, school districts, resource agencies, and numerous other governmental bodies within the MAPA region. The MAPA Board of Directors is a nine-member board that serves as the Council of Officials’ executive committee.
The Board of Directors is comprised of elected officials representing cities and counties from the larger five-county MAPA region. The MAPA Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) reviews and makes recommendations related to transportation to the MAPA Board. Various other committees listed below are involved in MAPA’s planning process and provide input and recommendations to the MAPA Board. The MAPA committee structure is displayed below in Figure 1.2.
Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC), Project Selection Committee (ProSeCom), Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C);
The Citizens’ Advisory Council (CAC) is a thirteen member council that was formed in 2014 to provide active public participation in the transportation planning process. The CAC reviews and provides feedback on planning activities presented to TTAC for approval and it informs TTAC of public concerns related to transportation projects and issues.

1.2 The Transportation Planning Process To implement the five core functions of an MPO (referenced in Section 1.1.1), MAPA undertakes a continuous planning process that involves stakeholder outreach, public participation, and coordination with federal, state and local government organizations. The following subsections outline these ongoing planning processes. 1.2.1 Long Range Transportation Plan The transportation planning process begins with the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). LRTPs serve as the guiding documents for transportation improvements in MPO regions. The MAPA 2040 LRTP, completed in October 2015, includes regional goals, objectives and strategies for implementation of projects over the next 25 years.
An LRTP must demonstrate fiscal constraint based upon a reasonably expected revenue projection to cover the cost of anticipated improvement projects that have been inflated to anticipated year of expenditure (YOE) costs. This means that the future cost of a project has been estimated based upon trend data for raw materials, engineering, and property acquisition, as well as construction costs. Figure 1.3 illustrates the Long Range Planning process.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 1-4
Figure 1.3 – Long Range Plan Development Process
Traffic/ Public Meetings Regional Goals Congestion Trends
Bicycle/ MTIS Heartland 2050 Pedestrian Plan
Long Range Plan
The MAPA 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) was developed in a cooperative and coordinated effort with state, local, and federal agencies along with the general public and private industry. In order for a project to be implemented through the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), it first must be evaluated, prioritized, and programmed in the LRTP. Regionally significant projects must be listed in the LRTP to be eligible for federal aid funding. However, projects that meet specific criteria (are regionally significant and/or on a priority corridor) and abide by the goals of the LRTP may be eligible for federal funding and listed in the TIP.
A transportation project is regionally significant if it is on a facility which serves regional transportation needs; access to and from the area outside the region, service to major activity centers in the region, or connections to major planned developments and would normally be included in the modeling of the metropolitan area's transportation network1. At a minimum, this includes all principal arterial highways and all fixed transit facilities that offer a significant alternative to regional highway travel.
1.2.2 Transportation Improvement Program A Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is, in simple terms, a list of upcoming transportation projects covering a period of at least four years. It is a financial programming document that displays the schedule for the obligation of funding for the four-year program of various improvement projects that are funded through the administrations of the United States Department of Transportation (USDOT). MAPA updates this document annually.
1.2.3 Unified Planning Work Program Each year, MAPA is responsible for creating a Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP). The UPWP identifies MAPA’s work items, guides MAPA’s efforts, and allocates budget to specific task items for the upcoming fiscal year. The Work Program also documents expenditures of transportation planning funds and gives the end results for each work item.

1.2.4 Congestion Management Process The Congestion Mitigation Plan (CMP) aims to provide effective management and operation of the transportation system to increase mobility and efficiency by more effectively utilizing the region’s resources. The eight steps of the CMP are listed below, a more detailed plan can be found in the MAPA 2040 LRTP.

Implement Institute System Monitor Strategy Selected Identify/Evaluate Performance Effectiveness Strategies/Manage Strategies Monitoring Plan Strategies
1.2.5 Coordinated Transit Plan The Coordinated Transit Plan is developed by MAPA and the local Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC). The CTP outlines the key obstacles, stakeholders, and strategies to better coordinate public transportation service in the MAPA region. The Coordinated Transit Committee guides the project development and selection of federal-aid eligible coordinated transportation projects to be implemented in this region.
MAP-21 legislation revised Section 5310 Grants- Enhanced Mobility for Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities - funding to allow for specific apportionments to metropolitan areas; MAPA, Iowa Department of Transportation and the Nebraska Department of Roads are the Designed Recipients of the Section 5310 program by the governors of Nebraska and Iowa.
As the Designated Recipient of 5310, MAPA, in conjunction with NDOR and IDOT, completed an FTA approved Program Management Plan (PMP) in 2014, which details how MAPA plans to manage the 5310 process. In addition, MAPA develops an annual Program of Projects (POP), which delineates funding to specific projects per funding year (Table 5.3).
1.3 Public Involvement Public involvement and participation is necessary to ensure a vibrant and meaningful planning process. MAPA’s Public Participation Plan (located at http://mapacog.org/reports/2015-public-participation-plan/) details the public outreach process and public participation opportunities. Specifically, the Public Participation Plan (PPP) details how MAPA involves the public early and often in the TIP planning and implementation process, helps to ensure that decisions are made in consideration of public opinion and
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 1-6 preference to meet the needs of the public. The public involvement process creates a collaborative environment, which builds trust and understanding between the public and those who serve them.
1.3.1 MAPA Public Involvement Strategies MAPA strives to involve the public and provide opportunities for participation in a variety of ways. The list below details the general public involvement strategies utilized by MAPA for this TIP document, please see Chapter 6 for the complete public involvement process.
● MAPA’s website (www.mapacog.org) was utilized to announce meetings, draft TIPs, public comment periods, and, upon approval, the TIP document itself. It also provided contact information to reach MAPA staff with comments. Following MAPA staff review of applications a prioritized list by funding category was developed for project selection. This list was published on the MAPA website and posted for review at the MAPA offices. It was also send in a press release to local media. Public comments were accepted for 30 days prior to the final selection committee review and approval of the prioritized lists for inclusion into the draft TIP. ● MAPA’s newsletter, What’s Happening, is available to the public free of charge and provides up-to- date news on the status of planning activities. The newsletter contained a story about the opportunity to comment on the TIP. ● Press releases were sent to local media to help inform the public of the opportunity to comment on the draft TIP. ● MAPA established a Citizens Advisory Council (CAC) to assist with the transportation public involvement process. MAPA also utilized its extensive network of contacts to share announcements with neighborhood groups, organizations representing or working with historically disadvantaged groups, business groups, transportation advocates, and others who are interested in local transportation planning. MAPA placed particular importance in reaching out to the traditionally underserved, including low-income and minority groups.
MAPA continually solicits and receives participation from members of the public as a part of its transportation planning process. Input and participation for MAPA’s TIP are encouraged as early as possible as the TIP is one of the last stages in the project development process. Public involvement is requested as early as the beginning of the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) process. The ideas for most projects listed in the LRTP eventually become construction projects as they are proposed by sponsor jurisdictions and added to the TIP. The public has several opportunities to become involved in the transportation planning process as projects are selected for inclusion in the TIP every fiscal year.
The public can review and comment when the draft list of projects is submitted to the public for feedback and then again when the draft TIP is released in its entirety. An overview of this process is shown in Figure 1.5.

1.3.2 Involvement through the MAPA Committee Structure MAPA’s public and stakeholder involvement through committees brings together a broad array of groups, advocates, and interests to provide input and comments to MAPA staff and the MAPA Board of Directors. The MAPA Board of Directors, TTAC, CTC, and CAC meetings are open to the public. Many of MAPA’s committees provide key input into the planning process through diversity in membership. The organization of MAPA’s transportation-related committees can be viewed previously in Figure 1.2 on page 1-3. 1.3.3 TIP Development Public Involvement Following the completion of the Draft TIP, MAPA published a notice of its availability for public review and comment. The Draft MAPA TIP is made available to the public for review and comment for 30 days following the approval of the draft for public comment by the MAPA Board. MAPA utilized the following strategies to encourage public involvement in the TIP process:
● Published a notice in local newspapers of the availability for public review and comment. ● Post the document on the MAPA website along with an announcement of its availability for review and comment. ● Discuss the document and its availability for review and comment in the MAPA newsletter, which was distributed to an extensive mailing list including many community groups. ● Presented the draft document to select committees, including the Citizens’ Advisory Council (CAC), for comment and community engagement.

Programming Process
2.1 Introduction MAPA’s TIP includes projects funded by the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) and its associated administrations. The Federal Highway Administration, Federal Transit Administration, and Federal Aviation Administration provide funding for roadways & trails, public transit, and aviation projects respectively. The MAPA TIP includes basic project information such as the anticipated cost estimates, proposed funding sources, and schedule for each phase of federally-funded projects. Non-federal projects are shown with less-detailed listings that provide basic project information. 2.1.1 Legislative Requirements The current authorized federal transportation legislation is the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST). FAST charges MPOs with the creation and maintenance of a fiscally-constrained Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).1 Creating a fiscally constrained TIP requires MAPA to allocate an amount of projects (based upon reasonable estimates) within the limits of reasonably available future revenues (based upon historical trends). MAPA cooperates and coordinates with state and local governments and public transit operators to create a TIP that prioritizes and lists all federally-funded and regionally significant transportation projects programmed for at least the next four fiscal years. Federal regulations require only four years but MAPA has chosen to program six years to better coordinate with local 1 & 6 Year Plans.
The projects listed in the TIP must be financially realistic and achievable; as such, this TIP is fiscally- constrained for fiscal years 2017 through 2020. Projects are also listed for 2021 and 2022 for illustrative purposes, indicating that there are long-term plans to move forward with the projects, but they are not part of the four-year, fiscally-constrained program.
Illustrative projects are not guaranteed to be awarded the funding that they have been assigned and are not fiscally constrained. Illustrative projects are shown in the TIP to allow for earlier project phases (such as preliminary engineering and environmental compliance) to occur. Projects are included in the TIP when full funding can reasonably be anticipated to be available for the project before its predicted completion date. Project development schedules require timelines that sometimes exceed the four year period of the TIP. When this occurs, projects that extend beyond the first four-year (fiscally constrained) period are shown in the illustrative years. Some projects may list construction phases beyond 2021 as they are not anticipated to begin construction until beyond the six year period encompassed by the MAPA TIP. 2.1.2 Maintenance of the Transportation Improvement Program Federal regulations require a TIP be updated every four years. NDOR and IDOT administrative policy necessitates that MAPA update the TIP annually. After approval by the MAPA Board of Directors, the TIP is sent for approval by the governors of Nebraska and Iowa (typically represented by NDOR and Iowa DOT). The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) also review and approve the TIP and have final approval of State Transportation Improvement Plans (STIP) which include all local TIPs.

MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-1
2.2 Regional Transportation Funding The FAST Act and previous transportation authorizations use the term suballocation to refer to portions of the federal funds apportioned to a State that must be used in specific areas within the State. Under FAST, suballocation is required for a portion of each State's apportionment under Surface Transportation Program Block Grants (STBG) and the Transportation Alternatives Set-Aside Funding (TAP). Specific Federal Transit Administration Programs (such as Section 5310 funding) utilize similar formulas to suballocate funding. MAPA receives an annual suballocation of funds for each of these programs. 2.2.1 Surface Transportation Program Block Grants (STBG) The Surface Transportation Program Block Grant funds a wide range of projects including construction, maintenance, and other projects on streets, highways, and bridges. STBG funding is extremely flexible and can be utilized for other projects including capital transit projects, enhancement projects, transportation demand management projects (e.g. carpool and vanpool), safety improvements, planning studies, natural habitat and wetlands mitigation efforts, and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) improvements, among others.
STBGSTBG funding is distributed by formula to various programs and jurisdictions inside the states. Under the FAST Act, the USDOT sets two percent aside nationally for the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). Additionally, States receive two percent off the top to assist in funding State Planning and Research (SPR). The funding available after these set-asides is available for suballocation based upon the following formulas:
50 Percent of STBGSTBG – States may allocate this funding to any eligible jurisdiction in the state 50 Percent of STBGSTBG – States suballocate funding based upon population into three silos o Areas under 5,000 o Areas 5,001 to 200,000 o Areas over 200,000
Each eligible silo receives funding based upon its population as a percentage of total state population. In Nebraska, TMAs (areas over 200,000 in population) had a combined population of 961,357 as of the 2010 Census. This equates to 51 percent of the total state population of 1,826,341 and affords TMAs 51 percent of Nebraska’s STBGSTBG apportionment each year
The MAPA Region receives funding from both the Nebraska and Iowa allocations of STBGSTBG. This funding cannot be transferred across state lines. Figures 2.1a and 2.1b on the following page display the sources of Nebraska STBGSTBG-MAPA funds and the Iowa funding portion of the MAPA MPO area based upon the formulas contained in MAP-21. These figures illustrate the flow of STBGSTBG funds from Congress beginning with apportionment to Nebraska and Iowa and resulting in suballocation to the MAPA region. Note that the period of availability of these funds runs for the year of apportionment (FY2017) plus three subsequent fiscal years. Therefore, funding apportioned to the MAPA region in FY2017 is available to be spent from FY2017 to FY2020.

MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-3
2.2.2 Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) Transportation Alternatives (TAP) are federally funded, community-based projects that expand travel choices and enhance the transportation experience by integrating modes and improving the cultural, historic, and environmental aspects of our transportation infrastructure. Much like the STBGSTBG-MAPA program, funding for these projects is suballocated to the MAPA region by the states. TAP projects must be one of several eligible activities and must relate to surface transportation, including the following: Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities (including ADA improvements) Safe Routes for Non-Drivers Conversion of Abandoned Railway Corridors to Trails Scenic Turn-Outs and Overlooks Outdoor Advertising Management Historic Preservation & Rehabilitation of Historic Transportation Facilities Vegetation Management Archaeological Activities Environmental Mitigation Stormwater Mitigation Wildlife Management
The TAP project sponsor must illustrate the project's relationship to surface transportation in the project proposal. Each state Department of Transportation (DOT) works with a Federal Highway Administration representative (FHWA) to ensure that projects meet the criteria of relating to surface transportation.
2.2.3 Section 5310 Funding Section 5310, Federal Transit Act (49 U.S.C. §5310), authorizes the Secretary of the USDOT to make grants for the provision of transportation services meeting the special needs of seniors and individuals with disabilities. Generally, funds from this program can be used for operating expense by coordinated transit providers and for capital expenditures such as new vehicles, automatic vehicle location (AVL) systems, and other equipment purchases.
MAPA has been designated by the governors of Nebraska and Iowa to administer the Section 5310 program for the Omaha-Council Bluffs region. The Coordinated Transit Committee oversees the development of MAPA’s Coordinated Transportation Plan (CTP) – the guiding document for the Section 5310 program’s administration.
Under the FAST Act MAPA receives approximately $530,000 of Section 5310 funding from FTA to fund these kinds of projects through the metropolitan region.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-4
2.3 MAPA Project Selection Responsibilities The transportation planning processes described above inform the project selection process for the MAPA TIP. In general, projects are chosen on the basis of public input, Long Range Transportation Plan goals, the Congestion Management Process, and continuous efforts by MAPA jurisdictions to monitor and address needs such as safety, signalization, and operations and maintenance. Project selection methodology differs depending on the funding program and location. Table 2.1 below displays the general timeline for selecting projects for inclusion in the FY2017 TIP. Project selection processes differ based upon the jurisdiction leading the process but all Federal-Aid projects in the MAPA MPO area must ultimately be approved by the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee and the MAPA Board of Directors. Please note that the funding programs listed are not all inclusive.
The Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom), Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP- C), and the Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) all evaluate projects for their respective funding streams. The timeline and process for project application and review for the FY2017 Application Cycle is shown in Figure 2.2 (next page).

MAPA staff members compile the project rankings and present them to each committee (Project Selection Committee for STBGSTBG, TAP-C for TAP funding, and the CTC for 5310 funds) for review during the Final Review Workshop. During this workshop, committees may also consider additional criteria that may be relevant to the project selection (existing network continuity, phasing feasibility, equity, etc.), and selects a list of projects. Jurisdictions whose projects are rejected have the opportunity to appeal this decision at subsequent appeals hearings for ProSeCom, TAP-C, and the CTC.
Following the appeals hearings, MAPA staff works to program the selected projects into the TIP based upon the ranking, available funding, and realistic project phasing. Projects are presented for public comment and included in the draft TIP.
For the FY2017 application cycle, project applications were due to MAPA by January 8, 2016. Projects were screened and scored using the approved committee methodology. A final review workshop was held on February 5, 2016 to determine the final project scores and to prioritize project rankings based on a discussion of proper phasing. Finally, an appeals hearing was held on March 2 for the CTC, where applicants could explain why their project deserved a higher rank. No appeals hearing was needed for TAP-C and ProSeCom for the FY2017 TIP cycle.
2.3.1 Project Selection Subcommittee The Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom) is a twelve member sub-committee to the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC) that includes planners, engineers, local or state staff, and public representatives. A majority of its membership of the Project Selection Committee is composed of members of the larger TTAC. Appointments to ProSeCom are made by the TTAC Chairperson. Surface Transportation Program improvement projects in the MAPA TMA are subject to the evaluation and selection of the MAPA Project Selection Committee (ProSeCom).
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-6
ProSeCom representative slots are shown below: Iowa DOT District 4 Representative Nebraska DOR District 2 Representative Metro Transit Representative Douglas County Engineer (Also represents Douglas County 2nd Class Cities) Sarpy County Engineer Sarpy County Municipalities Public Works Representative Omaha/Douglas County Municipalities Public Works Representative Omaha/Douglas County Municipalities Planning Representative Council Bluffs Public Works Representative All Metro Open Planning Representative Bicycle-Pedestrian Representative At large small cities representative
The new criteria are summarized in Table 2.2 and utilize a mixture of qualitative and quantitative data to score project applications in three project categories: General Roadway Alternative Transportation Systems Management
Table 2.2 – STBGSTBG-MAPA Project Selection Criteria Application Type Project Selection Criteria General Roadway Priority Corridors (High, Medium, Low) Future Year Level of Service Reliability Index Environmental Justice (EJ) Areas Redevelopment Areas Pavement Condition Percentage Local Match (points awarded over 30% match) Ability to Advance Construct (AC) Project Crashes per Million Vehicles & Crash Severity Index Bridge Sufficiency Bridge Status (Structurally Deficient and/or Functionally Obsolete) Bridge Detour Length Transportation Emphasis Areas Alternative Transportation Public Health Benefits Percentage Local Match (points awarded over 30% match) Air Quality Benefits Walkability, Access, & Equity Community Neighborhood Facilities & Land Use Connectivity Link-Node Ratio Bicycle & Pedestrian Safety Systems Management Delay Reduction (2040 Level of Service Improvement) Percentage Local Match Benefits of Proposed Study Multi-Jurisdictional Impacts
In an effort to foster additional implementation of Alternative Transportation and Systems Management (technology driven) solutions in the MAPA region, projects in these two categories receive priority over General Roadway projects. The flexible target allocation for a given fiscal year for these projects is between 10 – 25 percent of MAPA’s annual apportionment balance. This means that selected Alternative
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-7
Transportation and Systems Management projects are funded first (up to the 10-25 percent cap) followed selected General Roadway projects.
Projects submitted to MAPA for funding consideration are evaluated by the members of the Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom). MAPA staff evaluates each project based upon the scoring methodology contained in the STBG-MAPA Policy Guide and makes programming recommendations to the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee.
For a full description of the MAPA STBG project selection process please visit the address below: http://mapacog.org/images/stories/Trans_General/ FY2014_ProSeCom_Policy_Guide.pdf 2.3.2 Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C) Under the FAST Act, projects funded under the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) must be competitively selected by a documented and transparent process. Each year, MAPA convenes a Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C) to competitively select new TAP-funded projects for the region. This committee is comprised of representatives from cities, counties, state departments of transportation, public health professionals, bicycle advocates, and parks & recreation officials. Ultimately, the recommendations of this committee were formalized into the policy guide used to select projects for the development of this TIP.
Organizations which participated in the development of the TAP policy guide and criteria included: Iowa DOT District 4 Nebraska DOR District 2 Metro Transit Douglas County Engineer Sarpy County Engineer City of La Vista City of Papillion City of Springfield Omaha Bicycle-Pedestrian Advisory Committee City of Omaha Bicycle-Pedestrian Coordinator City of Omaha Public Works Council Bluffs Public Works Council Bluffs Parks & Recreation Papio-Missouri-River Natural Resources District Douglas County Health Department ModeShift Omaha Live Well Omaha Omaha Bicycle Company Public Representative
MAPA coordinated with local stakeholders on its Regional Bicycle-Pedestrian Plan to identify and prioritize corridors for bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. During the fall of 2014, the TAP-C updated MAPA’s TAP criteria using a prioritization model developed as a part of the Regional Bicycle-Pedestrian Plan. These criteria are based upon a diverse set of socioeconomic and transportation-related data that assist the TAP- C with funding decisions.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-8

Selected TAP projects were accepted into the MAPA TIP using an interim qualitative evaluation process to select TAP projects from existing Transportation Enhancement (TE) projects in February of 2013. This process was based upon input from sponsoring jurisdictions, NDOR, and FHWA-Nebraska Division and was led by MAPA and members of TAP-C

2.3.3 Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) MAPA, the Nebraska Department of Roads, and the Iowa Department of Transportation are designated by the States of Nebraska and Iowa as the recipients of federal funding for transit under Section 5310 – Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities. This means MAPA receives a direct annual apportionment from FTA without going through the states. MAPA coordinates with the two state agencies based on memorandums of understanding.
The CTC develops the selection criteria, scoring rubric, and application for agencies requesting 5310 funding.

MAPA’S 5310 project selection process is a competitive screening similar to the STBG and TAP processes. Section 5310 selection criteria are summarized in Table 2.4. There are two funding tracts within 5310 – Traditional-Capital and Other/New Freedom-Capital and Operations.
Projects submitted for 5310 funding consideration are evaluated by MAPA staff based upon the scoring methodology contained in the CTC Selection Criteria available at the following address: http://mapacog.org/images/stories/CTC/FY2016/FY16_CTC_5310_PolicyGuide_Final.pdf. The CTC reviews the scores and makes a recommendation to TTAC, which then makes a final recommendation to the MAPA Board of Directors.

Recommendations regarding award amounts and project programming were determined by the ProSeCom, TAP-C, and the CTC during Programming Workshops for each program on February 5, 2016. In some cases, projects that were ranked higher during the evaluation process will be programmed at a later date due to the necessary phasing of projects (i.e., PE/NEPA phase must be completed before ROW phase can begin) and the ability to program less costly phases and remain in fiscal constraint.
2.4 Development & Implementation of TIP Projects Based on federal, state, and local regulations, projects must navigate a process to move from concept to reality. The project lifecycle can be a complex process that may take years to complete. This section provides an overview of a generic federal-aid project and the tools MAPA utilizes to program projects accurately. 2.4.1 Lifecycle of a Typical Project in the MAPA Region A diagram and narrative of the lifecycle of a given transportation improvement project are outlined below and shown in Figure 2.3. Public involvement and participation will occur at each phase of the project’s life.
Figure 2.3 – Lifecycle of a Typical TIP Project
Project concepts must first be locally developed and included in locally developed planning documents to be eligible to be entered into the MAPA Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). Once the project has been included in the fiscally constrained portion of the MAPA LRTP, the project sponsor must apply to ProSeCom, TAP-C, or the CTC for inclusion in the 4th year of the fiscally constrained MAPA TIP. If it scores in the top tier of project applications, it may be included in the 4th year of the current TIP. Projects that do not make it into the top tier will be reevaluated with any new applications in subsequent application cycles.
Once the project has been included in the 4th year of the TIP it will continue to flow forward to year 3, year 2, and finally year 1 in subsequent TIP documents. Projects can only expend funding on those phases that are listed in year 1 of the TIP.
It is important to note that if a project is listed in a city or county plan with federal funding as a revenue source it may not actually have federal funding directed toward it. The MAPA TIP displays all USDOT projects in the MAPA region that are funded with federal dollars. In order to secure STBG-MAPA, TAP, or 5310 funding (federal funding), a project must navigate the above process and be included in the TIP.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-12
2.4.2 Funding Implementation: A Two Gate Process To streamline the STBG, TAP, and 5310 project selection process and to ensure the effective use of federal funds, MAPA will allocate funding of projects in the TIP using a two gate process to move projects into the implementation year. The implementation year, or year one of the TIP, is the fiscal year during which funding for a project or project phase can be obligated. In addition to ranking projects based on criteria, projects will also be evaluated based on each project’s timeline of implementation and fiscal constraint within the TIP. The two gate process will allow projects to advance from the illustrative years to the implementation year of the TIP:
First Gate – New projects and projects wanting to move from the illustrative years to the fiscal constraint years are ranked and placed in the TIP based on each individual project’s ranking, timelines, and the available funding per year.
Second Gate - Projects that can be obligated within the first 8 months of the fiscal year will be moved to the implementation year of the TIP based on NDOR timelines and fiscal constraints.
Each project that will be programmed in the TIP must submit an attainable timeline, be ranked by MAPA staff, and approved by the relevant committee before it will be placed in the TIP. Each committee (ProSeCom, TAP-C or the CTC) will have flexibility in selecting projects that are deemed higher priority to the committee. Projects will be allowed to present an argument for implementation before the committee if the project sponsor wishes to challenge the points total or scoring of the project. No project will be allowed to move into the implementation year unless the project timeline has been approved by the Project Selection Committee (either ProSeCom, TAP-C, or CTC), TTAC, and MAPA’s Board of Directors and fits within the fiscal year as coordinated with either NDOR or Iowa DOT for each state’s projects respectively.
MAPA’s project funds are allowed to be carried over in the TIP from one Federal fiscal year to another if MAPA has not obligated all of its apportionment for that fiscal year. Only project phases that can be obligated within the first 8 months of the fiscal year based on MAPA’s programming guidelines will be eligible to be moved to the first year of the TIP. In order to ensure implementation and effective use of STBG, TAP, and 5310 funding, projects are limited to two years in the implementation year (most recent year) of the TIP. If a project cannot be obligated within two years, the project phase or phases will be moved to Advanced Construction, a later year within the TIP, or funding will be reallocated to another project. This will help ensure that deadlines will be met and help those projects that have been moved forward most effectively to proceed to construction and completion.
2.5 Other Federal Transportation Programs The majority of Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) program funds in the TIP are not directly suballocated to MAPA. In general, NDOR and Iowa DOT make programming decisions for these funding programs and MAPA cooperates with the states and local jurisdictions to program the projects in the TIP appropriately. A detailed tabulation of the funding programmed from these funding sources can be found in Chapter 3.
Funding for Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) programs are also programmed in the TIP. Descriptions of these programs are found in the following sections. 2.5.1 Federal Transit Authority Funded Projects Federal-aid transit projects in the MAPA region are funded through the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) of the USDOT. Federal funding for transit projects under Sections 5309 - Bus and Bus Facilities -
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-13
and 5307 - Urbanized Area Formula - are directed to Metro Transit to support their operations. For a listing of FTA projects receiving funding awards through MAPA’s project selection process, please refer back to Table 2.5 on page 2-11.
Metro Transit is responsible for the operation of fixed route, express/commuter bus, and Americans with Disabilities Act Complementary Paratransit Service within the city limits of Omaha, Douglas County, NE. Additionally, Metro has contracts with five contiguous political jurisdictions for the operation of transit services as part of the Metro bus system: Ralston (NE) La Vista (NE) Bellevue (NE) Papillion (NE) Council Bluffs (IA)
Figure 2.4 below shows Metro’s fixed route bus transit coverage throughout the region.
Figure 2.4 – Regional Metro Transit Route Coverage
MAPA has also received a Veterans Transportation and Community Living Initiative (VTCLI) 5309 grant for a one-call center/system in 2012. This grant is being used to develop a centralized one-call dispatch center for the large number of agencies, which currently provides disjointed paratransit services. The one-call center/system would improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the ride experience in the Metro area.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-14
2.5.2 Federal Aviation Administration Programs In addition to surface transportation projects, the MAPA TIP also includes a list of projects programmed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of the USDOT. Under MAP-21, federally funded airport improvement projects are must be contained in the regional Transportation Improvement Plan. For that purpose, MAPA coordinates annually with the Omaha Airport Authority to ensure that regionally significant projects are included within the Transportation Improvement Program. A listing of the Airport Improvement Program projects for the Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Area is included in Table 5-2 in Section 5.1.4 on page 5-47. 2.6 Revisions to the TIP It is sometimes necessary to revise the TIP during the time between annual approvals. The two types of revisions are a TIP Amendment and a TIP Administrative Modification. General guidelines are described in the sections below and a summary table with examples is provided on the next page. 2.6.1 TIP Amendments An amendment is a revision to the TIP that involves a major change to a project. This includes an addition or deletion of a project, a major change in project cost, moving a project in or out of the fiscally-constrained four years, or a major change in design concept or scope change. A “major” change is defined by MAPA by four main components, which are summarized in Table 2.6 (next page).
Amendments require public review and re-demonstration of fiscal constraint. Formal amendments should be submitted to MAPA staff at least two weeks prior to one of the eleven regularly scheduled meetings of the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC). Staff will review the amendment for impact on fiscal constraint and other factors and present the proposed amendment to TTAC. The amendment is then considered by the MAPA Board of Directors and submitted to the states and FHWA/FTA for final approval and incorporation into the Statewide Transportation Improvement Programs (STIP).
TIP amendment requests which may drastically alter the fiscal constraint of MAPA’s regional funding and/or constitute a “new project” based on major scope changes may be recommended to MAPA’s project selection committees to be prioritized in the next application cycle. In general, reconsideration of a project in this way would only occur when requests would greatly exceed the base TIP amendment thresholds identified in Table 2.6 or when construction costs increase 100% or more. 2.6.2 TIP Administrative Modifications An Administrative Modification is a revision to the TIP that involves a minor change to a project. This includes any change that does not meet the criteria listed above for an amendment. For instance, if a project is moved from the third year to the second year within the fiscally-constrained TIP it would not constitute a “major” change and thus, would not trigger an amendment. Other examples of revisions that would be eligible for an administrative modification include changes that are less than project cost amounts described above, minor changes to project descriptions, or splitting an entry already in the TIP, where the intent is not to add a new project that is distinct from the original TIP entry, but to more smoothly implement the original TIP entry.
To process the Administrative Modification, MAPA submits a letter with the proposed project change to NDOR and FHWA/FTA, and for projects in Iowa, MAPA submits proposed project modifications through the Transportation Project Management System (TPMS). After approval, the changes will be made in the MAPA TIP document and the Statewide Transportation Improvement Programs (STIP).
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-15
Projects that are eligible as administrative modifications can still be changed as an amendment. MAPA staff reserve the right to process a proposed revision as an amendment even if a project qualifies as an administrative modification. For changes in Iowa, both amendments and administrative modifications will be entered into the TPMS for review by Iowa DOT.
Table 2.6 – Summary of Requirements for Amendments & Administrative Modifications Circumstance for Revision Requirements for Each Revision Type Changes to Project Costs Amendment* Nebraska Projects: An amendment is required when Federal-Aid for a project changes by more than 20% or $2 million dollars (whichever is greater) Iowa Projects: An amendment is required when Federal-Aid for a project increases by more than 30% or $2 million dollars (whichever is greater) Example: Increasing Federal-Aid for a project from $1 million to $1.5 million would require a TIP Amendment in both Iowa and Nebraska Administrative Modification Administrative Modifications may be used to change the Federal-Aid for a project change below the thresholds identified for a TIP Amendment Example: Increasing Federal-Aid for a project from $1 million to $1.1 million may be approved with an Administrative Modification Schedule Changes Amendment* An Amendment is required to program a project phase within the first four years of the TIP if it is not a part of the existing fiscal constraint Example 1: Programming a new project within the fiscally constrained portion of the TIP would require a TIP Amendment (FY2016-FY2019) Example 2: Reprogramming a new phase of an existing TIP project into the fiscally constrained portion of the TIP (FY2016-FY2019) Administrative Modification An Administrative Modification may be used to reprogram an existing project phase within the fiscally constrained portion of the TIP Example: Reprogramming a project phase from FY2017 to FY2016 may be approved with an Administrative Modification Change in Funding Source Amendment* An Amendment is required when the source for Federal-Aid for a project is changed Example: Changing the funding source for a project from the Surface Transportation Program (STBG) to the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) would require a TIP Amendment Scope & Termini Changes Amendment* Project Scope: An Amendment is required when the project scope and description within the TIP do not match the activities identified during project design. Termini: An Amendment is required to change project termini identified in the TIP or to eliminate inconsistences with the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) Example: Changing a terminus of a project from “1st Street” to “3rd Street” would require a TIP Amendment * Emergency TIP Amendments have the same requirements as a TIP Amendment in addition to the public notice and meeting guidelines detailed in Section 2.7.3
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-16
2.6.3 Emergency TIP Amendments Occasionally, situations may arise when an emergency amendment to the TIP is necessary. These are processed on an expedited basis due to circumstance which cannot wait for the next TTAC or MAPA Board meeting. For example, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“Stimulus”) required several changes to cost estimates in the TIP to be made in an expedited manner in order to meet deadlines and remain eligible for federal funding. Such amendments are only allowed by MAPA in cooperation with the States of Nebraska and Iowa, FHWA/FTA, and the local jurisdictions involved with the project(s). Emergency amendments are not used as a means of circumventing review by TTAC or the public, but are only utilized in response to truly extraordinary circumstances in which expedited processing of an amendment of a non-controversial matter is necessary.
If all parties involved with a project agree that an emergency amendment is necessary, then the amendment and documentation will be prepared by MAPA staff. TTAC voting members will be notified of the proposed emergency amendment and a meeting will be scheduled. In accordance with the Open Meetings Laws of both Iowa and Nebraska, MAPA will provide 24 hours of advance notice of any emergency meeting in public places and on the MAPA website. Following the emergency TTAC meeting, the MAPA Board of Directors will consider any emergency amendments. Emergency amendments may be considered at a regularly scheduled Board or TTAC meeting, specially-convened meetings, or by voice vote via telephone or a videoconference. If teleconferencing or videoconferencing technology is to be used to conduct a voice vote, locations at which the public can hear and participate in the emergency meeting will be noted in the meeting notice. Teleconferencing or videoconferencing will only be used when a meeting of the full Board or TTAC is impractical, and at least one Board or TTAC member will be present at the location where the public is gathering the participate in the meeting. In all cases, the emergency circumstances necessitating the meeting and the use of teleconferencing or videoconferencing technology will be noted in the meeting agenda and minutes.
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 2-17
Fiscal Constraint 3.1 Introduction MAPA’s Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) includes a financial plan that provides reasonable estimates for costs, revenues, and strategies for the projects and programs identified in the TIP. This section of the FY 2017-2020 TIP assesses the project costs by funding program and compares them to the anticipated revenues in each funding program. The MAPA TIP must be fiscally-constrained, meaning that project costs must not exceed reasonably anticipated funding revenues.
The fiscal constraint analysis in this TIP is dependent upon figures provided by the USDOT, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Iowa Department of Transportation (Iowa DOT), and the Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR). For Federal-Aid projects in the MAPA region, local jurisdictions are identified and the specific matching funds required for the Federal-Aid program are allocated by project.
This TIP also identifies the “operations and maintenance” expenditures by jurisdiction as required by the FAST Act, the current authorizing legislation for the Federal-Aid Highways Program (FAHP). Operations and maintenance expenditures are the total of the day to day cost to keep the system functioning. Example operations and maintenance projects include resurfacing, restoration and rehabilitation projects (3R projects) and other incidental capital and operations costs necessary to deliver an efficient and effective transportation system. 3.1.1 Year of Expenditure Calculations To give the public a clear picture of what can be expected (in terms of project cost) as well as to properly allocate future resources, projects beyond the first year of this TIP are adjusted for inflation. When project costs have been inflated to a level that corresponds to the expected year of project delivery this means that the project has been programmed with year of expenditure (YOE) dollars. YOE programming is required by federal law and the MPO is responsible for programming costs in the YOE. MAPA anticipates a 3 percent annual rate of inflation over the period of this TIP (2017-2022). This estimate is based upon the Consumer Price Index, published by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. This 3 percent rate is added to each project’s costs annually and can be seen in the fiscal constraint tables for each fiscal year for both FTA and FHWA’s funding programs. During the period of 2012-2014, the CPI grew nationally by 2.0 percent annually. MAPA is using discretion in estimating a more aggressive rate of inflation to create a more conservative estimate of project costs. 3.1.2 Revenue Estimation Revenue estimates for STBG-MAPA funding are also included in this document. MAPA relies upon estimates from Iowa DOT and NDOR for annual apportionments of federal funding. These estimates are based upon formulas in the FAST Act and are further subject to the obligation limitation. The obligation limitation is a percentage of the overall federal apportionment that can be spent in a given year. For the previous 5 years, the obligation limitation has been between 92% and 98% of the total apportionment level. This means that of the total funding apportioned to a state in a given year the state may only spend a between 92% and 98% of that total balance in its various programs. This obligation limitation is a safeguard that is utilized to ensure that funding exists for all states and programs in a given year.

3.2 Fiscal Constraint and Federal Funding Tables Tables 3.1a and 3.1b (below and next page) lists the total federal funding amounts programmed in the FY 2017-20 MAPA TIP for each federal funding program by year and demonstrates fiscal constraint across all of MAPA’s federal programs. The tables list the expected revenues (annual obligation) and expenditures (programmed funds) for FY 2017 – FY 2020, the four fiscally constrained years of the MAPA TIP. Funding targets are provided annually by Iowa DOT and NDOR to use for programming purposes. Please note, the Spending Authority includes the beginning balance.

The tables on the following pages (Tables 3.3 through 3.8) show the fiscal constraint for the Nebraska and Iowa STBG programs, the Nebraska and Iowa TAP programs, the FTA 5310 funding program, and the Metro Transit 5307/5339 funding programs by project and fiscal year for only the federal funding for each project. The bolded funding amounts in the TIP are MAPA’s OA flexibility projects which can also be seen in Table 3.9. The additional $1.2 million programming amount comes from a yearly 3% increase from NDOR and enables MAPA to program projects in the event that funding becomes available in order to utilize MAPA’s apportionment balance and account for project slippage. The available funding depends on further acts of Congress.

MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 3.3 Apportionment and Obligation Flexibility MAPA’s annual obligation authority from the State of Nebraska had been approximately $12.5 million per fiscal year in recent years. Due to project schedules and funding shifts, MAPA spent less than had been allocated to the region over the last several fiscal years resulting in an obligation surplus of around $30 million. As a result, in 2014 MAPA entered into an agreement with NDOR, which provided MAPA with flexibility to program projects within the fiscally constrained portion of the TIP in order to spend these extra funds. With this Obligation Authority flexibility, NDOR will make obligation authority available to MAPA in years in which MAPA programs more than its annual obligation authority limit.
Additionally, this agreement made available over $30 million dollars of MAPA’s apportionment balance, and this balance was distributed across several regionally significant projects. This information is shown in Table 3.9 below.

3.4 Operations and Maintenance MAP-21 directs MPOs to consider operation and maintenance (O & M) of the system as part of fiscal constraint, in addition to capital projects. O & M costs represent what is required to operate and maintain existing transportation facilities, shown in Table 3.11 (next page). To support this assessment, MPOs are charged with providing credible cost estimates in the TIP. The figures below were developed in consultation with state and local governments. Federal-aid and non-federal-aid estimates were derived by dividing the total operations and maintenance costs based on the mileage on the federal-aid system, as is the practice by Iowa DOT. For the basis of this TIP, MAPA estimates an inflation rate of 3 percent per year for operations and maintenance costs. Estimated revenues assume a more conservative growth rate of 2 percent per year.

Environmental Justice 4.1 Environmental Justice Populations ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE In 1997, the United States Department of PRINCIPALS Transportation (USDOT) issued its Order to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low- Income Populations (USDOT Order). The USDOT 1. Avoiding, minimizing, or Order addresses the requirements of Executive Order mitigating disproportionately 12898 and sets forth USDOT's policy to promote the high and adverse effects, principles of environmental justice in all programs, including social and policies and activities under its jurisdiction. Since the DOT Order was issued, the Federal Highway economic effects, on Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit minority and low income Administration (FTA) have been working with their populations state and local transportation partners to make sure 2. Ensuring the full and fair that the principles of environmental justice are integrated into every aspect of their mission. participation by all affected communities in the In order to identify EJ populations in the area, MAPA transportation making mapped out the areas of high poverty and high rates of minority populations and deemed the areas with an process intersection of these two groups as being EJ areas. Areas 3. Preventing the denial of, with concentrations of households without vehicles, reduction of, or significant those completely dependent on transit, were also delay in the receipt of mapped out; all of the areas with concentrations of households without vehicles also overlap EJ areas. The benefits by minority and low correlation between populations in EJ areas and those income populations without access to their own vehicles means that many in EJ areas are dependent on transit to access jobs, education, and social safety nets.
In order to effectively determine the impact that upcoming transportation programs will have on those living in EJ areas MAPA considered several levels of analysis. Table 4.1 (next page) has a breakout of the funding analysis. Funding within environmental justice areas o The amount of funds that are spent on projects in or around EJ areas o The proportion of funding assigned to projects is calculated based on the area of the project within or touching EJ areas Funding within the transit shed o Projects that are in or near the transit shed o The proportion of funding assigned to projects is calculated based on the area of the project within or touching the transit shed Travel Time

o Determining the change in the Vehicle Hours Traveled (VHT) created by the transportation program in the travel shed o Measures the improvements to travel time of those using the bus system Metro Transit Funding o The percentage of Metro Transit funding considered EJ is directly correlated to the percentage of their ridership that fall below the poverty line

4.1.1 Identification of Environmental Justice Areas To identify environmentally sensitive populations, MAPA conducted an analysis of census data at the tract level (2010 US Census and 2013 American Community Survey). The analysis reviewed MAPA TMA populations to evaluate whether areas of disproportionate minority and low-income populations exist. The percentage of the population within each census tract identified as low-income or minority was compared to the TMA average, using a normal range of one standard deviation above and below the average; 68 percent of all measurements fall within one standard deviation of the average in a normally distributed dataset. The remaining 32 percent is above and below this regional average. The MAPA TMA Percent Minority and Percent Poverty data sets are positively skewed and not normally distributed. To account for this, the data square root value was used to transform the dataset into a normal distribution. Those census tracts with a score greater than one standard deviation above the average (square root value) have a concentrated minority or low income population.
Figure 4.1 (next page) illustrates the locations of the aforementioned areas within the TMA. The map indicates census tracts with a ratio of minority and/or low-income populations significantly higher than the TMA average. The concentrations of minority or low-income, and zero vehicle populations were defined by the above mentioned methodology. These census tracts were determined to be environmentally sensitive areas of concern for evaluation purposes.

4.1.2 Identification of the Transit Shed A transit shed is the area around transit service line that is considered a walkable distance from a route. MAPA determined that for the Omaha area, in compliance with ADA transit service standards, this was three quarters of a mile buffer around all transit routes. Due to the close and compacted nature of bus services this creates a comprehensive area in which transit service is easily available. North and South Omaha have the densest concentrations of transit routes in the city, coinciding with the largest EJ areas in the region, as shown in Figure 4.3.
Figure 4.3 – MAPA Transit Shed
MAPA FY2017-2022 Transportation Improvement Program 4-4
4.1.3 Identification of Funding Levels in EJ areas and the Transit Shed (TS) Funding Equity The MAPA FY2017 TIP projects were mapped using Geographic Information System (GIS) and spatially analyzed for proximity and location within the environmental justice areas and the transit shed. EJ funding was assigned based on the proportions of the project in or near EJ areas and the transit shed. The various spatial relationships and funding distributions are outlined below:
Portion of Project Within EJ Area o The percentage of the TIP project within the EJ area, weighted at 85%, is used in combination with its transit shed relation to determine the percentage of its funding attributed to EJ Portion of Project Within Transit Shed o The percentage of the TIP project within the transit shed, weighted at 85%, is used in combination with its EJ area relation to determine the percentage of its funding attributed to EJ
Relation to Transit Projects falling within the TS are looked at for how they affect travel time. MAPA staff determined that projects that benefited level of service, improving travel time, in the transit shed had a positive impact on EJ populations and those that decreased the level of service could negatively affect EJ populations due to the impact of the mobility of those who depend the bus system.
How Project Relates to Transit o If Project Reduces Travel Time – 10% of funding attributed to EJ
Non-Spatial Projects Many projects do not have a single spatial location or a location specific impact. For example, a traffic control center impacts the complete jurisdiction with technology and system management. Furthermore, a traffic signal project may occur at various locations throughout a jurisdiction and these locations cannot be explicitly determined. These types of projects have the funding distributed based on geographic area proportions of the lead agency jurisdiction boundaries, the TS, and EJ areas within that jurisdiction. That is to say that if a non-spatial project from a lead agency that has ten square miles of total incorporated area and EJ areas or TS of two square miles, 20 percent of the project funds will be allocated to the EJ areas or TS based on this proportion. Metro Transit funding for nonspecific projects falls into the non-spatial projects category since Metro Transit’s service area covers a considerable portion of the region.
Metro Transit Projects Metro transit projects are an important form of the non-spatial project type. These are considered for their impact on sensitive populations and the levels of connectivity that the Metro system provides for EJ populations, especially those without cars. All of the Omaha region’s EJ areas are covered by the existing transit shed and the transit shed provides connections between EJ areas and important employment and social service areas as shown in Figure 4.3. According to Metro statistics, close to 60% of their ridership is at or below the poverty line and the vast majority of the trip destinations and origins are in EJ areas and areas with high densities of service sector employment. In keeping with the proportional method of EJ funding determination for non-spatial projects, 60% of Metro Transit funding would be considered EJ funding to match the percentage of Metro’s ridership who fall under the poverty line.

4.2 Findings 4.2.1 Transit Shed and Metro Transit Findings Based on the analysis presented above, including evaluating transit change effects, environmentally sensitive populations are not being adversely affected by the FY2017-2020 TIP Program. At a program level, there are no adverse impacts anticipated for environmental justice populations in relation Metro’s funding or to travel time within the transit shed, preserving or improving the mobility of those in EJ areas. Table 4.3 shows the projects in Environmental Justice and Transit Shed areas. Table 4.5 lists Federal-Aid projects not located within, adjacent to, or abutting an environmental justice area. Project funding is restricted to only the fiscally constrained portion of the MAPA TIP (FY2017 – FY2020).
Table 4.3 displays the listing of Metro Transit projects for the duration of the FY2017 – FY2020 MAPA TIP. MAPA used the percentage of Metro’s ridership which fall under the federal poverty line (60%) to determine the percentage of Metro’s funding that would be considered as EJ funds, a corresponding 60%.

4.2.2 Highway and Road Findings Based on the analysis presented above, environmentally sensitive populations are not being adversely affected by the FY2017-2020 TIP. The funding distribution for road projects and the modeled travel time impacts are not anticipated to disproportionately adversely affect those living in EJ areas, as can be seen in Tables 4.2 which shows the projects in the EJ areas. Table 4.4 summarizes the proportion of EJ funding for spatial projects in the FY2017-2020 TIP.

4.4.3 Conclusion of Findings In examining the funding and geographic allocation of projects, and their potential impacts on users of the transit, road, and trail systems, in the 2017-2020 TIP there were anticipated to be no disproportionate impacts to EJ areas. Funding allocation across the entire program was found to be higher in all categories for EJ areas with 75% of funding going to projects linked to EJ populations and in or near EJ areas compared to 21% of the population living in EJ areas, as shown in Table 4.4. The inclusion of Transit Shed projects and Metro service to EJ areas examines the connectivity for those who do not have access to vehicles, as demonstrated in earlier sections these connections are not anticipated to be harmed in this TIP.

Project Tables 5.1 Regionally Significant Project Information This section of the TIP includes detailed programming information for all regionally-significant transportation projects identified for the MAPA region. The projects are divided between sub-sections of this chapter based on the following categories: Roadway & Trail Projects Transit Projects Aviation Projects These categories generally correspond to the three major agencies responsible for funding transportation projects in the MAPA region: the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the Federal Transit Administration (FTA), and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). 5.1.1 Regionally Significant Roadway & Trail Projects The next pages include project tables for roadway, trail, and other projects generally eligible for FHWA funding programs. Projects in this section include those selected through MAPA’s project selection process, in addition to programs for which the two state departments of transportation (NDOR and Iowa DOT) make decisions. Regionally significant state- and locally-funded projects are included in this section as well. Table 5.1 lists the corresponding numbered projects that match the map in Figure 5.1 on page 5- 2.

Public Involvement 6.1 Public Participation Methodology The FY2017–2022 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) was developed through collaboration between MAPA transportation staff, Metro Transit staff, City/County government, NDOR and Iowa DOT, and members of various committees and subcommittees including the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC), the Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom), Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C), and the Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC). Furthermore, Resource Agencies/Interested Parties and the MAPA Board of Directors were consulted in plan development.
As shown in Figure 6.1, the draft project list was released for public review and comment for 30 days on. Announcements of the availability for comment of the draft TIP were made through the MAPA website (www.mapacog.org), Facebook, Twitter, a paid public notice, a press release, the MAPA’s What’s Happening newsletter and several email lists targeting groups that have previously expressed interest or serve historically disadvantaged populations. Staff also gave presentations to stakeholder boards including the CAC and CTC. MAPA also sent memos and flyers to area libraries and local jurisdictions discussing the availability of the draft plan for public comment and posted the plan in the lobby of the shared MAPA and Metro building on MAPA’s bulletin board,
Following the Board approval of the final draft plan on, the last round of outreach took place. Comments were accepted on the final draft plan until. Announcements of the availability of the final draft TIP were made through all of the same means as the preliminary draft. However, Paper copies of the final draft plan were distributed to libraries and flyers were sent to local jurisdictions. Once the plan was approved and certified by NDOR and Iowa DOT, the final TIP document was distributed to the libraries.

6.3 Project Selection Approval The Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom), Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C), and the Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) all evaluate projects for their respective funding streams. Project selection meeting minutes for each of the committees can be found in the following sections. 6.3.1 Project Selection Subcommittee (ProSeCom) No STP call for project was completed due to the funding already programed in previous years. 6.3.2 Transportation Alternatives Program Committee (TAP-C) The Transportation Alternatives Program Committee met on February 10th and selected TAP projects. 6.3.2 Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) The Coordinated Transit Committee (CTC) met to select 5310 projects on February 5th. There was an appeals meeting held on March 2nd. The Iowa Department of Transportation requires two sets of meeting minutes; therefore, two are located below in Appendices A and B.
The Transportation Technical Advisory Committee (TTAC), of which TAP-C and the CTC are subcommittees, made the official approval decision of all project selection (TAP and 5310) at the March 25, 2016 TTAC meeting. These minutes are located in Appendix C.

For CTC Approval
1. Introductions and Roll Call
Ms. Lisa Picker called the meeting to order at 9:30 a.m. She welcomed the committee and introductions were made. Ms. Picker explained that the appeals process would include a roll call vote and stated who the voting members are.
2. Voting on Funding Allocation
Ms. Walker reviewed what was voted on at the previous meeting. The CTC voted to go with proportional distribution against staff recommendation of one vehicle un-proportional distribution. This resulted in a number of agencies receiving less than a portion of a vehicle and many contacted MAPA with their concerns about this. As a result of the concern, this is being brought to the committee again for a re-vote.
Discussion Items
3. Appeals Process
Mr. Rich Surber, City of La Vista, explained why he felt the committee should re-vote. Ms. Ann Marie Kudlacz commented that with the option that the committee selected, some agencies received less funding and to be able to get a vehicle they would have to come up with additional funding in addition to the match which can be very difficult. The question was asked at how the original vote resulted in some agencies getting less than what they needed for a vehicle. The committee voted on the option to distribute funds based on rankings and in some cases this left less funding for other agencies. Mr. Michael Felschow explained how that decision affected the funding allocation for the agencies. Mr. Felschow also explained that the 80/20 was not a federal requirement. MAPA staff further explained how the un-proportional distribution would allocate funding to the agencies. The staff decided that in future meetings votes will be taken as a roll call vote to ensure that each voting member understands what they are voting for and this process will allow questions and discussion. Mr. Court Barber reviewed with the committee how the funding allocation would be affected (increases and decreases in funding) for each agency if the committee chooses un-proportional distribution [please see attached Item A for details].
After discussion, it was clarified to the committee that if they would like to keep the original vote of proportional distribution, signal by a vote of Aye or put it to a re-vote, signal by a vote of Nay.
MOTION by Ann Grober, SECOND by Ann Marie Kudlacz to keep the original vote of the committee on funding allocation as proportional distribution.
YAYS: McCurdy, McMartin, Jackson, Jordan, Quaites-Ferris NAYS: Freshman, Grober, Hansen, Kudlacz, Picker, Shadden, Stonys, Surber ABSTAIN: Conley, Peterson, Porterfield, Rush MOTION FAILED.
Ms. Megan Walker explained that with a vote of 5 Yays and 8 Nays that the committee has chosen to reject the original decision of proportional funding.
MOTION by Rich Surber, SECOND by Ann Grober to accept the staff recommendation of un-proportional funding.
Chairman Picker asked if there were any questions or discussion. Mr. Mark Peterson stated that the committee would like to know more about the scope of the projects. Chairman Picker stated that the committee did vote on and approve the scoring rubric and agreed as a committee that MAPA would be allowed to score and rank the projects. The question was brought up on whether or not this vote could be tabled. It was discussed on whether or not the committee should table the conversation or the vote. Mr. Surber stated that he would like to proceed and vote on the motion. Chairman Picker proceeded with the roll call vote.
YAYS: Conley, Freshman, Grober, Hansen, Jackson, Jordan, Kudlacz, McMartin, Peterson, Picker, Shadden, Stonys, Surber NAYS: Lander, Quaites-Ferris ABSTAIN: Porterfield, Rush MOTION PASSED.
Ms. Ann Grober, requested that the committee revisit the scoring rubric for the next year.
MOTION by Ann Grober, SECOND by Vicki Quaites-Ferris to revisit the scoring rubric in a separate committee meeting in September.
Mr. Rich Surber asked about the points distribution on the scoring rubric. Chairman Picker stated that the committee would not be creating a new rubric, only reviewing the current rubric and how points are assessed. Chairman Picker also reminded the committee that Ms. Walker stated that in 2023 that MAPA will only have access to one year of funding to distribute to the agencies. Mr. Fred Conley commented that the meeting will only be to review the rubric and that this does not mean there will be changes to it.
YAYS: Conley, Freshman, Grober, Hansen, Jackson, Jordan, Lander, McMartin, Peterson, Picker, Porterfield, Shadden, Stonys, Surber, Quaites-Ferris NAYS: Kudlacz ABSTAIN: Rush MOTION PASSED.
4. Next Meeting Chairman Picker stated that the next meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 16, 2016 at 10:30 a.m. in the MAPA Training Room.

4. 5310 Project Selection Committee
9/16/15 4
Ms. Ashley Myers presented an update on the 5310 project selection. There will be another call for projects for 5310 funding. Ashley reviewed the timeline for the 5310 project selection and the rubric for the two grant types and applications: Traditional - Capital Only Applications and Other/New Freedom Applications. This year, rather than having two applications, there will only be one application and using the scoring rubric, MAPA staff will use the correct rubric to score the project. The point categories did not change, only a few of the points were reduced to equal 100 points. After discussing the points, the committee proposed a change to the Ridership criteria for both applications, increasing the “Increased 4.99%” score to 5 points rather than 3.
Ms. Mary Angus MOTIONED to approve the MAPA staff proposed changes and the Ridership critera on both applications. Mr. Mark Lander SECONDED. Motion passed.
Ms. Myers said the final application, rubrics, and policy guide will be brought before the CTC at the October meeting.
5. 5310 Vehicle Update Ms. Ashley Myers presented an update on the 5310 program. FTA has recommended that MAPA not buy vehicles, instead NDOR and IDOT will purchase vehicles. MAPA will continue to receive applications and the CTC will select the projects. MAPA will then forward the money and projects to NDOR and IDOT who will purchase the vehicles. A meeting will be held to explain the process to those who received vehicle funds. The operations grants will still be handled through MAPA.
6. Informal Coordination Due to lack of time, the committee did not have time to complete the informal coordination activity.
7. Results of the Call Center Research Study Due to lack of time, MAPA staff will provide an update on the Call Center Research Study results at the October meeting.
8. Additional Business Next month’s agency spotlight will be Heartland Family Service and Goodwill.
9. Next Meeting The next CTC meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, October 21 at 10:30 a.m.
10. Adjourn Ms. Picker adjourned the meeting at 11:30 a.m.

There will be $400 million over the course of the Bill which will go out to FY 2033. It will be the amount of LB610 and then go into this bill which will equal $400 million plus $50 million from the cash reserves that will happen this year. Of that, $40 million will be earmarked for the county bridge program, $20 million for the new economic opportunity program which is similar to the RISE program in Iowa and part for expressways around the state. A big part of the bill is the design bill and the general contractor instruction manager portions of the bill.
Applications are out for the TIGER program which runs through April 29, 2016. The FAST Lane program is part of the FAST Act and will be the last round of TIGER. It’s oriented towards large freight projects and includes planning stages and NEPA.

Offutt JLUS Draft Application Narrative Goals related to the OEA mission
As with the initial JLUS, the goals continue to be the following:
• Prevent incompatible development that may jeopardize the viability of the base mission.
• Protect health, safety, and welfare of the surrounding communities.
• Enhance communications between the base and surrounding communities. Grant Introduction/Background
Located in the heart of the nation, Offutt’s 4,000 acres reside in the rolling hills of southeastern Nebraska. The base, which is located in eastern Sarpy County, Nebraska, borders the City of Bellevue, Nebraska. It is also located approximately 10 miles south of downtown Omaha, Nebraska and 17 miles south of the City of Councils Bluff, Iowa. The base falls within the Greater Omaha-Council Bluffs Metropolitan Statistical Area. Offutt’s host unit is the 55th Wing, the largest wing within the Air Force’s Air Combat Command. Additionally, the base is home to many significant associate units, including US Strategic Command Headquarters, the Air Force Weather Agency, the Omaha operating location of the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, and many others.
Offutt's heritage began with the construction of Fort Crook between 1894 and 1896, some 10 miles south of Omaha and two miles west of the Missouri River. Many of the original structures built on the post before 1900, including the guard house and various enlisted and officers' quarters, are still in use today. Fort Crook, later named and redesigned as Offutt Air Force Base, spurred Bellevue's largest growth. Offutt became home to the huge Martin bomber plant during World War II and, shortly after the war, housed the headquarters of the Strategic Air Command. It attracted thousands of workers, both civilian and military, who made Bellevue their home. Bellevue's population grew from less than 1200 in 1940 to almost 4000 in 1950 and then almost 9000 ten years later. A decade later, Bellevue's population again more than doubled, to more than 20,000.
The 55th SRW moved to Offutt AFB, in August 1966. That same year the 55th’s 38th Strategic Reconnaissance Squadron assumed responsibility for SAC’s airborne command and control system. The 2nd Airborne Command and Control Squadron inherited this mission after activation on April 1, 1970. The 1st Airborne Command and Control Squadron, flying E-4A aircraft, transferred to the 55th on November 1, 1975, bringing with it the National Emergency Airborne Command Post, now called the National Airborne Operations Center. On March 1, 1986, the 55th SRW became the host unit at Offutt after the inactivation of the 3902nd Air Base Wing.
Offutt faced monumental changes in 1992 when the easing of world tensions allowed the United States to reorganize its Air Force. The Strategic Air Command was disestablished here June 1, 1992, and the new, unified command, U.S. Strategic Command was activated. With this historical change, the operational control of Offutt became the responsibility of Air Combat Command, another of the Air Force's new commands. One of nine unified warfighting commands, USSTRATCOM is responsible for the planning, targeting, and wartime employment of the United States’ nuclear forces.
Offutt Air Force Base is home to the United States Air Force’s premiere reconnaissance and command- and-control operations. Among the base’s numerous and diverse units and missions, all branches of the U.S. armed forces are represented in a workforce that exceeds 10,000 military and civilian personnel. The base’s fleet of RC-135, OC-135, and WC-135 aircraft are in constant demand around the world to provide global situational awareness to military leaders and government officials. Additionally, its E-4B aircraft provide transport and command and control for the President, the Secretary of Defense, and Secretary of State.
Air Force Weather Agency is a field operating agency of the Headquarters U.S. Air Force Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff for Air and Space Operations, Weather Directorate (AF/XOW). Each day, AFWA builds the world’s most comprehensive weather database to provide forecast products to Air Force and Army warfighters, the National Command Authorities, base and post weather stations, the National Reconnaissance Office, and others. It was formed October 15, 1997, and is located at Offutt Air Force Base. Air Force Weather Agency was formed as part of a reengineering effort to streamline and improve the structure of the former Air Weather Service. This was a result of the realignment of Air Weather Service headquarters staff from Scott AFB, Ill. and the former Air Force Global Weather Center [Central], DOD's primary centralized weather production facility at Offutt. AFWA is organized into a headquarters element with two subordinate centers. Nearly 574 of the agency's 729 members are located at Offutt AFB, Neb. AFWA is not an automated production center. It is a computer-based operation heavily reliant on the interaction between people and computers to produce accurate and complete services in support of operational requirements. AFWA products and services support the war fighter, the base or post weather station, national programs, command and control agencies and systems, and other validated operational and planning functions. As new requirements emerge, AFWA applies information from the central database to the task. Need for Assistance
Offutt AFB is located in eastern Sarpy County, Nebraska, 10 miles south of the City of Omaha and adjacent to the City of Bellevue. Four miles north of the base lies Interstate 80 (I‐80), it connects to US Highway 75 which borders the installation on the west and I‐29 on the east. The US Highway 75 and I‐29 then connect to US Highway 34 which lies directly south of Offutt AFB. The installation comprises 4,041 acres; it also operates Capehart Housing Area as well as transmitter and receiver sites that are located various communities across Nebraska.
In 2014, a JLUS Policy Committee was formed that included jurisdictions in the State of Nebraska (Sarpy County, Douglas County, Cass County, City of Bellevue, City of La Vista, City of Plattsmouth) and the State of Iowa (Mills County, Pottawattamie County, City of Council Bluffs ) representatives from Offutt AFB, and a number of other regional stakeholders. In collaboration with the Committee, the MAPA procured services of a qualified consultant to support the JLUS efforts. In August 2015, the JLUS final report was completed. The report assessed compatibility factors relative to sustaining the mission at Offutt AFB and balancing the continued growth that is occurring in the region. The JLUS identified numerous implementation strategies for both the base and the local jurisdictions that would foster compatible land uses between the military and community growth. To continue the momentum and work established in completing the JLUS, it is necessary to request grant assistance to implement the strategies outlines within the JLUS.
The main objective is to complete a number of key strategy recommendations from the Offutt AFB JLUS completed and accepted in August 2015.
MAPA will develop the technical tools required to implement these key recommendations. Based on the JLUS Committee as well as community and public input, MAPA will create and / or modify policy and regulatory tools including maps and diagrams for each jurisdiction to enable user-friendly, planning tools to be implemented by each jurisdiction in a timely manner. The tools will be subject to each jurisdiction’s public process for review and adoption.
MAPA will develop the strategies so that they achieve the following primary compatible land use goals:
1. Ensuring the public’s health, safety, and welfare; 2. Recognizing private land owners’ current property rights and 3. Ensuring the continued viability of current and future mission activities on Offutt AFB.
Task 1: Project Mobilization
MAPA shall develop and present a public participation strategy that will be used throughout the duration of the project and within various jurisdictions. The proposed public involvement plan (see Task 3) shall include a recommended number and schedule of public workshops that will be based on the MAPA’s plan for completing this Scope of Work. MAPA will facilitate discussions to review implementation Scope of Work and expectations. Follow up meetings will be scheduled with jurisdiction staff to understand and address specific needs. These task items will be reviewed and approved by the JLUS Policy Committee.
Task 2: Formalize Coordination
The creation of intergovernmental agreements through an MOU to formalize the coordination and communication efforts between all participating jurisdictions and Offutt AFB. This task will provide the setting for each jurisdiction to develop a formal and continuing relationship. This includes, but not limited to, Offutt AFB as a stakeholder in regional planning discussions related to transportation, land use, future development, and ordinances affecting effecting Offutt and its mission.
Task 3: Community Involvement
MAPA will develop a Public Involvement Plan that includes Policy and Technical Committee meetings, public meetings, and public hearings. It is expected that the Plan will include meetings at each milestone of the project (kickoff, draft plans, and final plans). Meetings may be countywide or with individual jurisdictions. The Public Involvement Plan will be reviewed and approved by the Policy Committee.
Task 4: Development of Draft Strategies
Each jurisdiction will consider the following recommendations. As part of adopting these recommendations, MAPA will follow each jurisdictions public process.
Subtask 4.1: Military Compatibility Area Overlay District
This recommendation creates a Military Compatibility Area Overlay District to be used as part of a jurisdictions zoning ordinance. This strategy seeks to delineate an overlay district where military operations can impact the activities of adjacent communities and where the communities’ future development may impact the military mission. Within this overlay district, properties would be subject to land use regulations that promote compatibility, protect the public health, safety and welfare, and preserve the military mission. A draft overly district would be created and then tailored to fit each jurisdiction.
Subtask 4.2: Comprehensive Plan Recommendations
This subtask will would provide recommendations for all new and updated comprehensive plans to include military compatibility policies that support and promote compatible land uses. These updates would enable the sustainability of the Offutt AFB mission while also allowing for the continued growth of each jurisdiction. Specific policies and language will be drafted for comprehensive plans and land use regulations, then tailored to fit each city / county.
Task 5: Public Awareness
The purpose of addressing this strategy during implementation is to provide additional venues to enhance and increase awareness of the Offutt AFB mission to the public within the surrounding jurisdictions. This recommendation would assess various methods to increase public awareness as well as potential audiences to ensure the communication protocol is effective and appropriate for each jurisdiction and stakeholder group. Such awareness methods may include:
Informational brochures to be available in city and county administration offices; Public and military websites; Involve JLUS communities staff in AICUZ revisions
Task 6: JLUS IMPLEMENTATION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY REPORTS
MAPA will prepare a JLUS Implementation Program document that will record the steps required to implement recommendations from the Offutt AFB JLUS. Some of these recommendations may be implemented as part of this scope while others may be in a following phase.
Based on comments from the administrative draft report, a draft report will be developed and circulated to the public for comments. The administrative and draft plans will provide the detail and specific language for the proposed implementation strategies. A presentation on the Draft Report will be provided to the JLUS Committee for their review and comment.
Subtask 6.1: Prepare Draft JLUS Executive Summary
MAPA will prepare a report on the JLUS Implementation process. This report will provide an overview of how strategies were accomplished by documenting the steps - committee meetings, public and stakeholder engagement, and accomplishments. This report will be reviewed and by the Technical Advisory Committee.
Subtask 5.2 Prepare Draft Jurisdictional Executive Summaries
MAPA will prepare a draft set of strategies to implement the JLUS based upon reviewing relevant data and the comments and suggestions received from jurisdiction staff and leadership. Each jurisdiction will review the draft report create for them. This review will include public comment.
Subtask 5.3: Prepare Final JLUS Implementation Executive Summary Report
MAPA will include all comments from Subtask 5.1 and provide a final executive summary report to the Policy Committee for approval.
Subtask 5.4 Prepare Final JLUS Executive Summaries
MAPA will prepare the final set of strategies based upon the comments and suggestions received from the draft document. These comments will be included in the final executive summaries report. MAPA will provide the final report to the affected jurisdictions in a format that provides a step by step instruction package for strategic implementation adoption where appropriate. Grant Abstract

CITY OF TREYNOR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES V.2
MAPA shall perform and carry out in a satisfactory manner as determined by the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Treynor City Council, the following activities necessary to complete an update to the Treynor Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance, and Subdivision Regulations:
A. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN COMPONENTS
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION During the planning process, it is estimated that a series of four to six public meetings will be held. Attendance at various meetings will include Treynor Planning and Zoning Commission, Treynor City Council and city staff throughout the planning period. All meetings of the major component reports will include public notice and full public participation.
As the government body charged with providing recommendations regarding zoning and land use in the city, the Treynor Planning and Zoning Commission will serve as the steering committee for the planning process. While planning commission meetings are regularly open to the public, the commission should actively seek additional stakeholders to participate in the plan process, including business owners, interested citizens, and city staff. Furthermore, since ultimate approval of a plan is granted by the City Council, regular updates on the process and input from that body is encouraged as well.
A project kick-off meeting will be conducted for the public that will consist of a briefing on the proposed planning process, followed by a public visioning session. The purpose of the visioning session will be for community leaders and citizens to discuss a long-range vision for the City of Treynor and some of the perceived obstacles to achieving that vision. It is expected that information gathered in the visioning sessions will result in the identification of additional stakeholders and citizens interested in taking an active role in the planning process, and will also provide the groundwork for the key elements of the comprehensive plan. Following the project kick-off meeting, MAPA staff will discuss the outcomes of that meeting with city officials to determine if community survey work is necessary.
Upon completion of the community visioning component of the process, MAPA staff will work with the Planning Commission to update necessary components of the comprehensive plan. Since much of the data gathered for the original comprehensive plan is still largely relevant, the focus of this task will be to identify factors of change over the last decade, replace obsolete data where possible, and most importantly, to incorporate the results of community visioning into the plan. To complete this task, MAPA staff will identify elements of the plan where newer data is available and work with city officials to update locally generated data. The following are key components of the comprehensive plan process:
LAND USE/DATA ANALYSIS
Existing Land Use A detailed land use study will be prepared based on existing documents, but also including an update and field check of existing land use within the city’s jurisdiction. In addition, a review of agricultural land for preservation, conditions of natural environment, information on soil, climate, vegetation and topography will be provided. Floodplain information Attachment A
obtained from the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other sources will also be examined to show its effect on the community’s existing and potential land use.
Existing land use data inventories analyses and projections will be utilized to the fullest extent possible. MAPA will conduct additional field surveys according to standard accepted practices to inventory existing land uses in Treynor’s planning jurisdiction.
Future Land Use Plans Based on existing land use factors, environmental constrains, physical features, the economic base study, population projections, community goals and policies, and experience in similar communities, future use plans will be developed to indicate the category, future location, extent, and intensity of land use to the year 2035. These plans will be presented in both narrative and graphic form. During the presentation of the plans, consideration shall be given to potential and adverse environmental effects resulting from proposed development. Methods to ensure adequate and reasonable protection of the public from adverse environmental influences will be discussed. Land use policy statements shall be developed regarding future development within the county. This effort will provide the major basis for developing other elements of the comprehensive plan for the City of Treynor.
The plan will also analyze the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ or 2-mile area) and future land uses. The city, MAPA, and Pottawattamie County Planning will work together to regulate land use within an area up to two-miles from city limits.
TRANSPORTATION Work on this segment will include a review of the network of major roads in the city’s planning jurisdiction, which create a functional system to manage growth. Highway plans prepared by the Iowa Department of Transportation will be utilized to the fullest extent possible. MAPA will also consider findings from the Pottawattamie County Transportation Plan. This task will include the following:
1. An inventory will be taken of the major streets and highways in the city. Inventory information will include street and highway rights-of-way, width, traffic counts, and roadway conditions. The inventory information will be compiled from available data and field observations.
2. Existing major transportation facilities will be analyzed for service, capacity, volume, and deficiencies.
3. Street classification data developed by the Iowa Department of Transportation will be used in the street and highway planning. The major street and highway system will be classified on the methodology utilized by the Department of Transportation and applicable local criteria.
4. Street and roadway standards will be established that will conform to the requirements of the City of Treynor and the Iowa Department of Transportation.
5. A major thoroughfare plan will be prepared based on preliminary land use plans and describing and delineating arterial and collector streets. A review and examination of the possibility of alternative roadways designed for floodplain areas will also be made. Attachment A
6. Review of public transportation needs and services will be provided.
HOUSING This work element will appraise current problems associated with the provision of adequate housing for all residents of the City of Treynor and determine what efforts have been made by the city to address these problems in the recent past, and outline specific objectives in planning activities appropriate for the immediate future. This element will be undertaken to include nondiscrimination, conservation, evaluation, historical preservation, equal opportunity, and citizen involvement requirements.
PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE, UTILITIES AND COMMUNITY FACILITIES A review, with the assistance of the City Engineer, will be made of existing public facilities in the city and will include any pending engineering studies. Information will also be obtained from meetings with appropriate local officials such as the fire chief, public works employees, and school officials. These facilities will be evaluated, with assistance from the City Engineer, with respect to their adequacy to meet the needs of the area throughout the planning period, and recommendations will be made to coordinate projected facility needs with the future physical development of the city. The city facilities and utilities plan will place special emphasis on the following broad categories.
Water A review of the capacities of existing water systems will be made with respect to serving projected population and land use patterns. Existing plans for facilities will be integrated into the policies for future development within the city’s planning area. The projected service area will be determined to accommodate recommended areas of future development.
A review of the water system supply will be undertaken for the area and water demands will be projected consistent with population and economic projections, including a review of the water supply distribution system’s expansion and development.
Sanitary Sewer Systems A review of the capacities of the existing sanitary sewer system will be made with respect to serving projected population and land use patterns. Existing plans for such facilities will be coordinated with future development policies for the planning jurisdiction. Projected service areas will be determined to accommodate recommended areas of future development.
Storm Sewer Systems A review of the capacities of the existing storm sewer system will be made with respect to serving projected population and land use patterns. Recommendations will be made that pertain to existing and future needs of the city.
Solid Waste Disposal MAPA will review the present method of disposing of solid waste and generally indicate future needs to accommodate future development, including known activities in the surrounding area.
Attachment A
Other Public Facilities A review of existing public service facilities and capabilities of the existing locations and sites with respect to projected population and land use patterns will be examined. Recommendations will be developed for improvements needed, additional facility needs, and service capacity changes as deemed necessary.
Other Non-Municipal Utilities and Facilities A review of the capacities of existing electrical utilities, gas utilities, and cable television and Internet services will be made with respect to serving projected population and land use patterns. Recommendations will be made pertaining to existing and future needs of the area for the delivery of these non-municipal utilities including rights-of-way (transmission overhead and pipeline) and/or necessary land and location requirements for substations, pumping stations, etc.
Parks and Recreation The adequacy of parks and recreation areas will be determined for the city’s planning area. Open space and recreational standards will be developed that are applicable to local needs and sizes of recreation areas within the jurisdiction. Future expansion needs for specific facilities will be assessed as well.
CONSIDERATION OF IOWA SMART PLANNING PRINCIPLES These principles provide guidance concerning important elements local plans should include. Iowa Smart Planning Principles and Elements (per Iowa State Code Chapter 18B: Land Use – Smart Planning) in all aspects of the Comprehensive Plan Update.
These principles should be considered and may be applied when local governments and state agencies deliberate all appropriate planning, zoning, development, and resource management decisions. Application of these principles is intended to produce greater economic opportunity, enhance environmental integrity, improve public health outcomes, and safeguard Iowa’s quality of life. The principles also address the need for fair and equitable decision-making processes.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM A review of capital improvement needs in each plan element will be made and a listing of all such items required will be presented as it pertains to the comprehensive plan. MAPA will undertake a capital improvement program, which will enable the city to take a long-range overall look at public improvement needs as compared with the resources available to satisfy those needs. The CITIES Strategic Plan will be considered for this.
1. Governmental services now being provided within the planning area;
2. The financial condition of the city and its revenue and expenditures pattern; and
3. The statutory authorization for capital improvements and for constructing improvements.
A list of pending capital needs will be estimated and established. The resources available to satisfy those needs, including possible non-local funding, will be estimated on the basis of state statutes and local policies that establish the limits of funds available to the city Attachment A
through taxation, service charges and borrowing. The capital improvement program will be prepared with various improvement needs prioritized. The first six years of the program will be developed and a wish list will be included as part of the capital improvement program.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Existing efforts will be reviewed in order to determine the city’s economic development base in relationship to infrastructure, land use, transportation, and labor force. Project staff will determine needs and make general recommendations as part of a local economic development strategy.
FINAL REPORT MAPA will prepare the Draft Comprehensive Plan for review by the Planning Commission. A summary of the public involvement process that was conducted by MAPA will be included in the Draft Plan. The Draft Plan will be put out for a 30-day public comment period in which comments from local, county, and state officials will be solicited. A presentation of the Draft Plan to the City Council will commence the 30-day comment period and a public meeting will be held during this time as well.
Based on the public and stakeholder feedback received during the comment period, MAPA will develop the final plan for review and approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. MAPA will provide the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors a copy of the final report, for a total of 15 copies. Final plan documents will be provided in multiple file formats, with key graphics, tables and maps being provided separately as requested.
B. ZONING ORDINANCE AND SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS REVIEW AND UPDATE
Staff will review the city’s zoning ordinance and subdivision regulations. Based on any changes to the comprehensive plan that may cause conflicts with existing codes, staff will recommend changes to these ordinances and to the city’s zoning map as deemed appropriate.

2015-2020 5THE FIRS Action Plan JUNE 2016 Growing Together. Responsibly.
Ensuring the Vision reflects the voice of our residents, now and into the future, is critical. The Core Values and Guiding Principles have guided plan development.
Core Values of Heartland Residents Starting with the research and input compiled at the beginning of the planning process, the Steering Committee refined a list of core values to serve the vision and its implementation activities moving forward. These elements have been identified as the most important to our future happiness. Working together, we will strive to protect and preserve these values to make our communities stronger. Retain a high quality of life Maintain affordable and fair housing Use public resources efficiently for low taxes Enhance safety, reduce crime and eliminate poverty Attract good quality jobs Attract and retain young professionals Maintain excellent educational opportunities Ensure high quality health care Maintain our strong network of neighborhoods and communities Retain small town values that make our region inclusive, family-friendly, welcoming and accessible Expand and enhance transportation choices Plan for future which is sustainable and resilient economically
Guiding Principles for the Vision Along with the core values, a set of guiding principles were created also through the work of the Steering and Stakeholder Committees, and the Equity and Engagement Committee. The Guiding Principles go beyond the core values and create overarching themes or principles used to guide the vision goals, and the strategies and actions included in the Heartland 2050 Action Plan.
Equity – All individuals, regardless of ability, and communities within the region will have full and equal access to the opportunities that enable them to attain their full potential. Efficiency – Public infrastructure and services will be provided efficiently and cost- effectively.

Inclusivity – Decision making and the implementation of solutions in the region will be done in a way that ensures that all of the region’s residents have an opportunity to participate in the process, implementation, and evaluation. Local Control/Regional Benefit – It is critical that cities and counties within the region maintain local control over their communities while also working together collectively to ensure that local decisions enhance rather than affect other neighborhoods, communities or the region as a whole adversely.
Visioning Committees How this document was developed
In 2014 Visioning Committees occupied the middle ground between the organizational and content-generating elements of Heartland 2050. Committee members provided invaluable depth of knowledge and collective content and review of the outcomes, and strategies that are found in this Action Plan. Committees were formed around the six goal themes (Transportation and Infrastructure, Housing and Development, Resources, Economic Development, Education, and Health and Safety) and were comprised of individuals and organizations representing the spectrum of expertise, community type, sector, and position on the value chain (e.g. producer, consumer). Three rounds of meetings were held with more than 100 people participating in each session. The Vision Committee meetings served as forums for discussion, interpretation, and networking. Ultimately, the Vision Committees were responsible for crafting the outcomes and strategies (elements of the Heartland 2050 Action Plan). Their recommendations were the outcomes of thorough analysis and detailed discussions about the region’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Similar committees will continue as part of implementation.
Implementation Committees How this document was vetted
From August 2015 to April 2016 Implementation Committees for each goal theme vetted the Outcomes, Strategies and Action Steps and this document represents their revisions and updates. The Outcomes were presented to the Executive Committee for review and were approved with minor changes in January 2016. Strategies and Action Steps from the original document were vetted using the same process and approved by the Executive Committee in May of 2016. The Action Plan was presented to the Metrpolitan Area Planning Agency Board for approval and to be released for a 30 day public comment period in June 2016. The development of Metrics will be ongoing as initial projects are selected for execution.

Goals, and Outcomes How this document is structured
The Heartland Vision and its six goals were created from the region’s core values, discussions with the committees and research teams, and input from the thousands of people who participated in regional workshops and the “Shape Our Future” scenario survey. To transition into action, and to move the region towards the Heartland 2050 vision, the Visioning Committee met to finalize potential strategies to achieve these goals. In 2015-2016, Implementation Committees reviewed and revised the work, and the Action Plan was approved by the Executive Committee. The outcomes presented here are organized by the Vision goals. It is important to understand that the six Heartland goals are interrelated, resulting in connected and overlapping strategies in some areas. The goals, and outcomes, are organized using the following format:
provide a definition of the six main goal areas (Resources, Infrastructure, Development, Health, and Education and Economic Development)
Outcomes provide specific aspirations within each topical area
Strategies provide an overarching approach to achieving the outcomes
Action Steps tactical efforts to execute strategies and outcomes

Economic Development
We want our children and grandchildren to have the opportunity to stay in the Heartland region and enjoy the same low cost of living, high quality of services, and strong economy that the majority of people enjoy today. Throughout the region, but especially in areas suffering from inequality and marginalization, we want to see quality skills training programs and incentives, employment growth and support for jobs that are either close to where people live or accessible by transit. Addressing job inequality and attracting and retaining the next generation of skilled workers to the region is paramount to the long- term economic success of the place we call home. To meet this goal, advancing equity should be a driving force to strengthen the region’s economic growth and competitiveness. This includes prioritizing regional investments in quality education and workforce development, housing, transit, and revitalization in key neighborhoods. Local governments should support emerging business sectors including infrastructure, transportation, health- care, medical research, agriculture and food processing, military, insurance, and finance.

Housing and Development
Strong communities and neighborhoods are vital to people living in the Heartland and contribute to the quality of life we enjoy. People want a variety of housing options, both in the city as well as our suburban and rural communities, meeting the needs and preferences of the whole community. People want to be able to bike and walk to neighborhood stores, businesses and schools so they can be less dependent on cars and cultivate healthy lifestyles. Heartland residents are concerned about high taxes, environmental issues, housing segregation and areas of concentrated poverty, and want to see well-designed growth which makes the most efficient use of existing and planned infrastructure and public monies. As our region grows, new homes, employment areas and places to shop should be encouraged to locate in areas that are already developed in both smaller towns and larger cities, while ensuring that new development on the edge of the region is contiguous, well- planned, efficient, and affordable. This can be accomplished by revitalizing existing and creating new “town center” developments or “main streets” that include a mix of housing sizes and types while providing amenities to accommodate families as well as our growing baby boomer population.

Infrastructure
We want our leaders to make fiscally sound investments in the transportation system, utilities, renewable energy and new technology to support prosperity for all residents. We want to ensure that existing roads, highways and transit systems are maintained properly, improved, and implemented in a fair and equitable manner. We also want more options for getting around the region, like expanded bike and pedestrian facilities and new forms of transit, coordinating with Metro’s transit system improvements underway already. The transportation sector (rail and truck logistics) is a major part of our region’s economy and regional investments that balance new transportation options, advance workforce development for disadvantaged neighborhoods, and support existing networks are needed. New sites for industrial development will benefit from access to highway, railroad, freight, and air transportation. The US 34/Platteview Road corridor which opened a new $100+ million bridge recently across the Missouri River is an example of how new industrial development can be linked to existing highways. Other investments in infrastructure, such as broadband, will also support our communities and workforce.

Resources
Our region benefits from its proximity to productive and valuable farmland, clean air and high-quality water sources, and good access to green space and parks. The Loess Hills region of Iowa is also significant geologically, featuring unusually deep deposits of glacial silt and home to many of the largest prairie remnants of the state. Maintaining these features, including access to fresh, locally grown foods and preservation of pristine landscapes for future generations is important. Taking advantage of new opportunities to invest in and expand our renewable energy sources, providing a new economic base for our region, is also highly desired. In the future, the impact of natural disasters will be mitigated by limiting development in floodplains such as the Missouri and Platte River floodplains and careful storm-water management in other flood prone areas. Expanding the wealth of existing recreational trails and green spaces will create a connected green network of recreational opportunities and provide places for healthy, active recreation. Just as important are the connections between these natural areas, which create a connected green network of recreational opportunities.
