Annual Listing of Obligated Projects NEW YORK METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL ANNUAL LISTING OF OBLIGATED PROJECTS for Federal Fiscal Year 2009 December 30, 2009 Introduction Each and every day, the New York metropolitan region’s transportation system is called upon to efficiently and reliably deliver people and goods to countless destinations within the region and beyond. This vast network of rails, roads, bridges, waterways and trails makes it possible for workers to get to jobs, students and teachers to educational institutions, and visitors to attractions, as well as for goods and services to reach consumers. The New York Metropolitan Transportation Council (NYMTC) – a regional council of governments which is the Metropolitan Planning Organization for New York City, Long Island and the Lower Hudson Valley – is the organization responsible under Federal law for undertaking regional transportation planning activities for the New York metropolitan region that lead ultimately to transportation improvement projects that keep the transportation system functioning. How Are Projects Planned and Funded? The Federal legislation which authorizes spending nationally for transportation improvements requires metropolitan regions to follow a comprehensive planning process in order to obtain Federal funding. The foundation of this process is a long-range Regional Transportation Plan which defines the region’s long-term needs and conceptual solutions. Through more detailed study, various specific transportation improvements are then defined using the Plan as a framework. Once defined, improvement projects are then added to the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). As required by Federal regulations, the TIP is a medium-range program of projects that prioritizes these transportation improvements over a three-to-five year period. NYMTC’s adoption of the Plan and TIP for its region affirms that its member agencies are in compliance with Federal planning requirements and that the transportation improvements it has identified are therefore eligible for Federal funding. How Are Projects Implemented? Improvement projects that appear on the TIP, whether they involve the purchase of equipment or construction of facilities or provision of services, are described by the various phases they must move through to be implemented. These phases range from detailed design or specification to actual purchase, construction or implementation and finally to evaluation, inspection and quality control. Often, these phases occur over a period of several years. Once a project has been defined on the TIP, funding for each of its phases must then be obligated. Obligation of funds can be thought of as a formal commitment of a specific amount of funds to a project, as opposed to the programming of funds on the TIP, which simply enable their eventual commitment. Obligation begins the flow of funds to a project. Funding obligation is a critical milestone in the process which eventually implements transportation improvement projects. Federal planning regulations require that NYMTC publish a listing of obligated projects at the conclusion of each Federal Fiscal Year, which begins on October 1st and end on the following September 30th. What Are the Federal Requirements? The 2009 Annual Listing of Obligated Projects fulfills NYMTC’s obligation under 49 CFR Part 450.332 for the Federal Fiscal Year which ended on September 30, 2009. Specifically, these Federal requirements are defined in the following sections: 450.332 Annual listing of obligated projects. (b) The listing shall be prepared in accordance with § 450.314(a) and shall include all federally-funded projects authorized or revised to increase obligations in the preceding program year, and shall at a minimum include the TIP information under § 450.324(e)(1) and (4) and identify, for each project, the amount of Federal funds requested in the TIP, the Federal funding that was obligated during the preceding year, and the Federal funding remaining and available for subsequent years. (c) The listing shall be published or otherwise made available in accordance with the MPO's public participation criteria for the TIP. § 450.324 Development and content of the transportation improvement program (TIP). (e) The TIP shall include, for each project or phase (e.g., preliminary engineering, environment/NEPA, right-of-way, design, or construction), the following: (1) Sufficient descriptive material (i.e., type of work, termini, and length) to identify the project or phase; (4) Identification of the agencies responsible for carrying out the project or phase. How to Contact Us If you have a question regarding the 2009 Annual Listing of Obligated Projects, please contact: Christopher Hardej (212) 383-7253 [email protected] How to Read the Annual List of Obligated Projects The listing is organized geographically by NYMTC’s three main subregions: New York City, Long Island, and the lower Hudson Valley. The listing is further subdivided by Federal Highway Administration funded projects followed by the Federal Transit Administration funded projects. The following is an explanation of terms that appears atop each column of the Annual List: PIN – The unique project identification numbers used to track projects. PROJECT DESCRIPTION – A brief single-line description of the project. A more comprehensive description can be obtained from the TIP. DATE – The date funding was authorized/obligated for FHWA-funded projects or the date of the grant award for FTA-funded projects. FEDERAL FUND SOURCE – The Federal program from which funds are to be drawn. Appendix A of the TIP has further explanation of those fund sources. PHASE – The phase of work for which funds have been obligated. FEDERAL AMOUNT FOR FFY 2009 – The funding obligated (in millions). A negative number in this field typically shows a project phase closing out typically withdrawn or de-obligated. ADVANCE AMOUNT END OF FFY 2009 – The funding advanced for a project which would lead to future obligations. This is the remaining amount advanced at the end of the fiscal year. ADVANCE AMOUNT END OF FFY 2008 – The funding advanced for a project at the start of FFY 2009. REMAINING FED AMOUNT 2010-2012 – The programmed Federal funding remaining and available for a project in subsequent fiscal years. LEAD AGENCY – The agency responsible for carrying out the project or phase.

  • Section Iv Proposed Land and Water Uses and Projects
    SECTION IV PROPOSED LAND AND WATER USES AND PROJECTS Land and Water Uses The City of Rye's land use pattern is well established. The purpose of the land use plan is to insure that future development will be compatible with the present land uses and to implement the local program policies. The four general land use categories that characterize the City's coastal area include: natural open space, park and recreation, waterfront recreation and residential. The Greenhaven-Rye Golf Club Area (Zone 1) Residential use will be maintained in the Greenhaven area, south of Soundview Avenue, a small area north of the Rye City Golf Course, and Hen Island. The Marshlands Conservancy is proposed for natural open space use and is part of the new Conservation District. The other predominate use is the Rye City Golf Course which is proposed for parks and recreational use and is part of the new Waterfront Recreation District. The Marshland Conservancy and Rye City Golf Course are rezoned for conservation and waterfront recreation, respectively The Milton Point-Commercial Waterfront Area (Zone 2) Natural open space encompasses the shoreline areas of Milton Harbor and Long Island Sound. Waterfront recreational use includes membership clubs located at Milton Point which are included in the new Membership Club Zoning District to help maintain existing club properties for recreational use. Waterfront recreational uses also include the waterfront activity at the City Marina, the Rye Fish and Game Club, the Shongut Boat Yard and the Brailsford Company which have been rezoned for Waterfront Business. These properties, including the membership clubs at Milton Point, were zoned for residential use.

  • Mapping Long Island's Rentals
    Mapping Long Island’s Rentals Background The Long Island Index has mapped 1,456 rental buildings and 882 coops and condos across both counties as part of the Index’s research project to understand multifamily, rental housing on Long Island. The Index has also identified 113 projects (rentals and coops/condos) that are in the pipeline – ranging from those that have been proposed to those that are currently under construction. This is the first time that data on multifamily housing locations has been collected comprehensively islandwide for the purpose of publicly mapping and analyzing Long Island’s rental apartment housing stock. (Spatial analysis for this report was prepared by the Center for Urban Research at the CUNY Graduate Center. See methodology and data sources in Appendix A.) All told, Long Island’s existing 2,338 multifamily buildings represent approximately 162,000 apartment units. The 113 pipeline projects – if they are all built as currently planned – would bring another 26,000 units of housing to the region. The following table presents these statistics. Built Pipeline Apartment Apartment Buildings Buildings Units Units Rentals 1,456 83,344 77 20,544 Coops and Condos 882 78,956 36 5,551 TOTAL 2,338 162,300 113 26,095 With the importance of transit-oriented housing to Long Island’s future, we analyzed the mapped data to learn more about the history and current practice of building near or far from LIRR train stations. The analysis below focuses on rental housing because Long Island’s affordable housing problems1 can best be addressed by expanding access to reasonably priced rental apartments.

This vast network of rails, roads, bridges, waterways and trails makes it possible for workers to get to jobs, students and teachers to educational institutions, visitors to attractions and for goods and services to reach consumers. The New York Metropolitan Transportation Council (NYMTC) – a regional council of governments which is the Metropolitan Planning Organization for New York City, Long Island and the Lower Hudson Valley – is the organization responsible under Federal law for undertaking regional transportation planning activities for the New York metropolitan region that lead ultimately to transportation improvement projects. Maintaining and improving the transportation system will require a great deal of investment; more than $568.0 billion (year of expenditure dollars) of needs as identified in NYMTC’s current 2005-2030 Regional Transportation Plan. The challenge will be to find sufficient financial resources to achieve this objective. How Are Projects Planned and Funded? The transportation legislation which authorizes spending nationally for transportation improvements requires metropolitan regions to follow a comprehensive planning process in order to obtain Federal funding for transportation improvements. The foundation of this process is a long-range Regional Transportation Plan which defines the region’s long-term needs and conceptual solutions. Through more detailed study, various specific transportation improvements are then defined using the Plan as a framework.
