C. Approval of Minutes On motion of Commissioner Jankowski, seconded by Commissioner O’Connor, the following minutes were approved. Quarterly Meeting Minutes of May 5, 2016 Chairman Redmond welcomed the new Commissioners to the Board. Commissioner Kelli O’Connor for Monroe County, Commissioner Rich Kosmerl from Wyoming County, Commissioner Don Jeffries who will be joining later and Commissioner Bill Faber who was unable to attend this meeting. He also thanked former Commissioner Robert Fischer for his service to the Authority since 2012. D. CEO Report Bill Carpenter, Chief Executive Officer, presented the monthly CEO Report as reflected in the power point presentation, a copy of which shall be attached to these Minutes. 2 Regarding the presentation on On-Time Performance: Chairman Redmond asked about the lates and if steps are being taken to rectify those since they are going in the wrong direction. Chris Dobson, VP of Finance, responded that the analytics group looks at the OTP data at the route level and by day type. With our wealth of information captured through our technology systems, we communicate with the cross functional on-time performance committee, they take a look at the performance of each driver, and through the operator coaches contact the frontline bus operators, so really all those facets kind of get deployed to move the bar in the right direction. We are expecting that incrementally we will tighten that window and get to the ideal performance. Commissioner Kosmerl asked if the data collected shows the different types of root causes that operators can work on improving. Chris Dobson, VP of Finance, responded that through the technology system it records the on-time performance to the granular level. We can get to specific routes, blocks, and operators. That is the information that we gather by day, type, where performance is lacking. Lots of factors can effect on-time performance such as special events, the number of boarding on wheelchairs, etc. Commissioner Pryor expressed her appreciation for all the data. We’ve come to take for granted that we can drill down to such a granular level, to compare last year results with this year’s goal and this year’s data, it really makes it a pleasure and easy for us to understand and it obviously has an impact on the outcome. Regarding the presentation on Smart Cards: Commissioner Green asked if the tap-on pass is laminated enough where the chip won’t get destroyed. Chris Mahood, Director of Information Technology, responded that is correct, we had an individual here that took one of the cards and put it in his wallet for 30 days, put it through the washer a number of times, and it still works today. Commissioner Argust asked what the rewards are that we anticipate offering. Chris Mahood, Director of Information Technology, responded that we have discussed free rides based on the number of times you ride or how many passes you have purchased, similar to what a lot of retailers offer for rewards but nothing has been finalized. Chairman Redmond asked what the cost per card is. Chris Mahood, Director of Information Technology responded 26 cents, versus 9 cents for the paper cards. Commissioner White asked if the cards were reloadable. Chris Mahood, Director of Information Technology, responded the way that we’re starting out with cards that are non-reloadable. We have the capability to do reloadable cards but first we want to learn using these cards. Commissioner White wanted to know if there is potential for a fraud issue. Chris Mahood, responded that the cards are not reloadable by the customer. Regarding the presentation on RTS Ontario route changes: Commissioner White asked where the transfer between RTS Seneca and RTS Ontario is located and will people coming from Seneca County be able to get to Guardian Glass. Mike DeRaddo, Director of Regional Operations, responded that the transfer is at the Geneva Transit Hub and yes the Seneca residents have access to Guardian Glass. Chairman Redmond asked if the buses are only going in one direction. Mike DeRaddo, Director of Regional Operations, responded there are two buses, one bus will be in the 3 south and one in the north, they will operate in a figure 8 and they will travel in one direction. Commissioner White stated that he appreciated what was done to accommodate not only Ontario County but customers in the other counties who also work at the big employers like Guardian Glass and the Hospital. This change was well thought out and will be a good change. Commissioner Jankowski asked what the ridership is on the route. Mike DeRaddo, Director of Regional Operations, responded the northern piece is around 55 per day on the route 1. Commissioner Astles commented that he heard from the college (FLCC) and they are very enthusiastic about the changes. Regarding the presentation on changes to the Route 47 Monroe: Commissioner Astles asked if the frequency of the service is relatively the same. Julie Tolar, Director of Service Planning, responded Jewish Home is a business partner and they pay for some trips so those we definitely are going to keep at the correct times.We also know that we have a lot of ridership going out there so it’s the right thing for us to keep going there. We made sure we have at least all of the same times that were covered before covered now on the route 23. Commissioner Astles asked if we have planned on any reserve capacity in the system on Monroe Avenue to accommodate for economic development. Julie Tolar, Director of Service Planning, responded these changes will address what is going on now as far as needed ridership capacity, and we will keep an eye on this. If we start to see issues with overcrowding or with pass ups we would do another analysis on the route. Commissioner Pryor asked if by adding Winton Rd. to the route 23, do we make that route too complex and create some of the same problems we were seeing on the route 47. Julie Tolar, Director of Service Planning, responded it could possibly create issues. For this project we were fixing serious issues on the route 47, we don’t want to create problems on another route at the same time, but the route 23 is new. It has only been around since September and customers are still getting used to it. We are putting a lot of stuff on the route 23 right now because it is new and we will see how it plays out. Commissioner Jankowski asked how holding the public information sessions at the Transit Center are working. Julie Tolar, Director of Service Planning, responded we are getting a lot of good information. It seems to be going really well, and people can’t really say that they can’t get to the customer information sessions because every bus goes there, so it makes it easier for people. We have gone back and forth from holding them at the actual gate or in the center near the customer center desk. We gain information from both locations. On motion of Commissioner Jeffries, seconded by Commissioner Kosmerl, the CEO Report was accepted by unanimous vote.

  • Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 a Publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs
    Field Trips Guide Book for Photographers Revised 2008 A publication of the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs Copyright 2008. All rights reserved. May not be reproduced or copied in any manner whatsoever. 1 Preface This field trips guide book has been written by Dave Carter and Ed Funk of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society, NVPS. Both are experienced and successful field trip organizers. Joseph Miller, NVPS, coordinated the printing and production of this guide book. In our view, field trips can provide an excellent opportunity for camera club members to find new subject matter to photograph, and perhaps even more important, to share with others the love of making pictures. Photography, after all, should be enjoyable. The pleasant experience of an outing together with other photographers in a picturesque setting can be stimulating as well as educational. It is difficullt to consistently arrange successful field trips, particularly if the club's membership is small. We hope this guide book will allow camera club members to become more active and involved in field trip activities. There are four camera clubs that make up the Northern Virginia Alliance of Camera Clubs McLean, Manassas-Warrenton, Northern Virginia and Vienna. All of these clubs are located within 45 minutes or less from each other. It is hoped that each club will be receptive to working together to plan and conduct field trip activities. There is an enormous amount of work to properly arrange and organize many field trips, and we encourage the field trips coordinator at each club to maintain close contact with the coordinators at the other clubs in the Alliance and to invite members of other clubs to join in the field trip.

  • A Historic Context for the Archaeology of Industrial Labor in the State Of
    A Historic Context for the Archaeology of Industrial Labor in the State of Maryland Robert C. Chidester Masters of Applied Anthropology Program Department of Anthropology University of Maryland at College Park Submitted to the Maryland Historical Trust In Partial Fulfillment of a Maryland Heritage Internship Grant December 2003 Revised Version, March 2004 Abstract This report presents a historic context for industrial labor in the state of Maryland. Industrial labor is defined as the socially-governed activity of transforming nature for the purpose of the efficient processing and manufacture of commercial goods. Labor’s heritage as represented in the Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties, the Maryland Archaeological Site Records, and selected secondary sources is surveyed following the geographical and chronological guidelines presented in the Maryland Comprehensive Historic Preservation Plan (Weissman 1986). Types of industry and labor, class relations, the labor movement and the social and domestic lives of industrial laborers are all considered; additionally, industrialization in Maryland is linked to other important themes in the state’s history. An overview of the archaeology of industrial labor is given for each of Maryland’s 23 counties and Baltimore City, emphasizing important excavations. An analysis of the state of labor archaeology in Maryland is given, along with suggestions for important research themes that have been thus far unaddressed or poorly addressed by Maryland archaeologists. i Table of Contents Abstract.....................................................................................i
