- I get a motion to approve our agenda for August 26 2026?

00:02:53.720 --> 00:03:02.206
- motion to approve? So moved. Second. Thanks, Neil and Jane. All in favor say aye.

00:03:03.234 --> 00:03:12.598

00:03:12.598 --> 00:03:21.962
- and vice chair. I don't have anything to report Jane. Do you have anything to report? Okay, easy peasy

00:03:21.962 --> 00:03:31.145
- lemon squeezy as one of my children say this will move us on to reports from our MPO staff Okay, the

00:03:31.145 --> 00:03:33.054
- first one we have is

00:03:33.314 --> 00:03:40.819
- under reports from the staff number 6.1, USDOT surface transportation reauthorization priority letter.

00:03:40.819 --> 00:03:48.105
- This comes from the Secretary of Transportation. It's a little bit late because the reauthorization

00:03:48.105 --> 00:03:55.464
- discussions in Congress have been going along since January of this year and then all of a sudden we

00:03:55.464 --> 00:04:02.750
- get this letter. The thing that I want to point to first is going down to what's called Appendix C,

00:04:03.106 --> 00:04:13.304
- existing II that's in infrastructure investment jobs act programs not to extend or modify. They're doing

00:04:13.304 --> 00:04:23.210
- away with increased accessibility for transportation options. They recommend removing the requirement

00:04:23.210 --> 00:04:30.494
- that supports activities such as bicycle lanes. They're requesting removal

00:04:30.658 --> 00:04:37.448
- of charging stations for infrastructure, they're requesting elimination of carbon reduction program,

00:04:37.448 --> 00:04:43.566
- requesting elimination of healthy streets program, reconnecting communities pilot program,

00:04:43.566 --> 00:04:50.624
- get away with that, do away with that, invasive plant elimination program, do away with that, pollinator

00:04:50.624 --> 00:04:57.414
- friendly practices for highways right away, do away with that, active transportation infrastructure,

00:04:57.414 --> 00:05:00.574
- primarily bicycle lanes, they're against that.

00:05:00.962 --> 00:05:08.846
- National culvert removal and replacement, they already feel that that's already being taken care of.

00:05:08.846 --> 00:05:17.432
- Strengthen mobility through transportation grants, this is the smart, strengthen mobility and revolutionizing

00:05:17.432 --> 00:05:25.238
- transportation, do away with that. Electric vehicle work, working group, do away with that. Modify,

00:05:25.238 --> 00:05:28.126
- programs to modify are the reduction

00:05:28.418 --> 00:05:36.646
- of truck emissions at port facilities. They don't really believe that's necessary. Congestion relief,

00:05:36.646 --> 00:05:44.794
- don't really feel that's necessary. Safe streets and roads for all, the SS4A program. They call that

00:05:44.794 --> 00:05:53.022
- a federal burden. Wish I could say something nice about all of this. Any questions anybody would have

00:05:53.022 --> 00:05:56.894
- on that? Otherwise, I'll just move right along.

00:05:57.250 --> 00:06:06.140
- Items but is this why we can't have nice things why we can't why we can't have nice things It kind of

00:06:06.140 --> 00:06:15.292
- seems like it we already have them according to this letter Yeah back to the back to the future. I guess

00:06:15.292 --> 00:06:22.526
- is what this is second item six point two USD OT national roadways safety strategy

00:06:22.818 --> 00:06:31.479
- The key thing out of here, and I encourage you to at least glance at it, key thing out of here is they're

00:06:31.479 --> 00:06:39.731
- eliminating, sorry, just a second here, they quietly removed bicycle lanes, road diets, speed safety

00:06:39.731 --> 00:06:48.228
- cameras, variable speed limits and speed limits that are appropriate to vulnerable road users as a list

00:06:48.228 --> 00:06:51.006
- of proven safety countermeasures.

00:06:51.266 --> 00:07:01.352
- They did that about three weeks ago. Number 6.3, this is the USDOT Inner City Bus Atlas. This is just

00:07:01.352 --> 00:07:11.241
- a handy dandy thing to know. We didn't even realize it existed until we came across it by accident.

00:07:11.241 --> 00:07:20.734
- It shows all the links of inner city buses throughout the entire United States. Next item, 6.4,

00:07:20.898 --> 00:07:31.314
- Indiana's second, actually this is the third gas tax holiday reimbursement. State of Indiana began under

00:07:31.314 --> 00:07:41.432
- the governor authorized a gas tax holiday, spending the gas tax in Indiana, well that started in May,

00:07:41.432 --> 00:07:48.574
- June, July, August. The tune of this is five million dollars per month.

00:07:49.634 --> 00:07:58.681
- And the governor has said that we have ample reserves to cover this, ample state reserves to cover this.

00:07:58.681 --> 00:08:07.642
- The question is, how is the state of Indiana gonna replace $5 million a month for the last four months?

00:08:07.642 --> 00:08:16.862
- Because that money is all dedicated to road improvements. So down the road, it's possible that you may see

00:08:17.122 --> 00:08:24.442
- Fewer 100% state-funded projects and this is me talking Okay, the next thing we have is item a question

00:08:24.442 --> 00:08:31.481
- about yeah six four just when I was looking at it and this is just for a point of clarity with that

00:08:31.481 --> 00:08:37.182
- reimbursement is is that money that's coming back to the county and city is that

00:08:37.314 --> 00:08:43.751
- Does that go directly to like for instance the Monroe County Highway Department? Is that where the county

00:08:43.751 --> 00:08:49.824
- money goes or does it go is it allocated somewhere else? Yes Yeah, it goes straight straight to the

00:08:49.824 --> 00:08:55.958
- highway department and the distribution goes to the normal LPA local public agency process it's just

00:08:55.958 --> 00:09:02.153
- coming out of State of Indiana's reserves not its gas tax reserves. That's that's the key thing to be

00:09:02.153 --> 00:09:02.942
- aware of and

00:09:03.234 --> 00:09:10.875
- Thanks. And they're you know, the first law of economics is there is no free lunch. And so we're providing

00:09:10.875 --> 00:09:18.087
- a free lunch here and that free lunch will come down to pay some time, sometimes several months down

00:09:18.087 --> 00:09:25.657
- the road. Next thing we have is an early coordination letter from a consultant for the Indiana Department

00:09:25.657 --> 00:09:32.798
- of Transportation. This is for the new sidewalk addition on State Road forty five forty six bypass.

00:09:33.058 --> 00:09:41.482
- between Kinzer Pike and Walnut Street. This is on the north side of the highway. This pathway would

00:09:41.482 --> 00:09:49.991
- be a protected barrier type sidewalk that would be constructed on the north side of the bridge. This

00:09:49.991 --> 00:09:58.078
- is to facilitate pedestrian movements, which have been ongoing for at least six or seven years.

00:09:58.274 --> 00:10:05.724
- Usually it takes five years for programming for projects in the Department of Transportation. That's

00:10:05.724 --> 00:10:13.322
- nothing against them, but they also had a policy up until two years ago. They did not build sidewalks.

00:10:13.322 --> 00:10:20.919
- That policy changed two years ago. They're currently allocating somewhere around 18 to $20 million per

00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:28.222
- year in LPA areas for safety projects that involve sidewalks and pedestrians and bicycle movement.

00:10:28.354 --> 00:10:39.560
- kudos to them. This project would be programmed for construction sometime about four to five years from

00:10:39.560 --> 00:10:51.089
- now. Stay tuned, we'll have additional information as it comes along. Yes. The maintenance of the facility

00:10:51.089 --> 00:10:57.662
- would be responsibility of the Department of Transportation.

00:10:58.402 --> 00:11:05.910
- they would have to sweep it, protect it, make sure. They would probably build concrete barrier walls,

00:11:05.910 --> 00:11:13.270
- either what I call GM barriers or permanent barrier walls, probably permanent barrier walls is what

00:11:13.270 --> 00:11:20.852
- they would do to ensure the safety of the pedestrians and the bicycles there for anybody that left the

00:11:20.852 --> 00:11:26.814
- roadway in that area. Go ahead. Typically, NDOT requires the local public agency

00:11:27.010 --> 00:11:33.644
- to do maintenance of any pedestrian facilities. So I would guess this would be similar to the bypass

00:11:33.644 --> 00:11:40.279
- where the city is responsible for those sweeping, plowing, et cetera. But it's a discussion we would

00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:46.913
- have with them. It would be great if NDOT was actually responsible. But I would be surprised if that

00:11:46.913 --> 00:11:53.810
- was the case. It's unclear because it's a bridge. And so therefore, the question is, I don't know. Fair,

00:11:53.810 --> 00:11:56.766
- yeah. I mean, part of it is a bridge, right?

00:11:56.994 --> 00:12:04.437
- Yeah, yeah part of it is a bridge. You're right In fact, we'll ask that question and get back with you

00:12:04.437 --> 00:12:12.386
- with an answer for the next meeting You know, there's been some bridges that have been issues for maintenance

00:12:12.386 --> 00:12:19.973
- in the past 2nd Street 3rd Street we're in dot is throwing the responsibility for pedestrian maintenance

00:12:19.973 --> 00:12:22.430
- over to the local agencies, so it

00:12:23.010 --> 00:12:30.054
- This one definitely look into this because in the past, they've been very reluctant to maintain these

00:12:30.054 --> 00:12:37.098
- types of facilities. Any additional questions, observations? Okay, we've got our homework assignment.

00:12:37.098 --> 00:12:44.004
- The next item we have, the city of Bloomington announces increased traffic enforcement ahead of the

00:12:44.004 --> 00:12:51.048
- Monroe County Consolidated School Corporation school year. This one is self-evidence and schools have

00:12:51.048 --> 00:12:52.222
- already started.

00:12:52.450 --> 00:12:59.699
- Please be aware of speeding, disregarding stop signs, traffic signals, failure to yield to pedestrians

00:12:59.699 --> 00:13:06.947
- and crosswalks. Turning right on red, we're prohibited using cell phones while driving, big no-no, and

00:13:06.947 --> 00:13:14.337
- other unsafe driving behaviors that put pedestrians, bicycles, sickles, students, and motorists at risk.

00:13:14.337 --> 00:13:21.726
- This not only goes for the school corporation, but it also goes for Ivy Tech and for Indiana University.

00:13:22.338 --> 00:13:30.980
- Um, next item we have is city of Bloomington safety week. Uh, this kicks off. Well, it started this

00:13:30.980 --> 00:13:39.622
- week. Uh, the big action starts tonight. Um, on, well, Tuesday, yesterday, August 25th from five to

00:13:39.622 --> 00:13:48.350
- six 30, uh, the planning and transportation department sponsored a welcome week community bike tour.

00:13:48.546 --> 00:13:56.418
- This was for Indiana University students meeting at the Showalter Fountain, guiding them in what I would

00:13:56.418 --> 00:14:04.065
- call a loop area, showing them different areas of the city, shopping, shopping groceries, recreation,

00:14:04.065 --> 00:14:11.563
- you name it, and it was there. And that was last night. Then tonight, we have another special event

00:14:11.563 --> 00:14:16.286
- called Traffic Cones. This is being hosted at Chocolate Moose.

00:14:16.706 --> 00:14:24.671
- just down the street from here, where it's an open area from four to six, I'm sorry, on Safe Streets

00:14:24.671 --> 00:14:32.558
- Initiatives, receive free ice cream. I will be there. Please come on down. I'll share my ice cream,

00:14:32.558 --> 00:14:40.523
- please. The next event we've got is tomorrow night called Kidicle Mass, Back to School Bike Ride and

00:14:40.523 --> 00:14:45.886
- Celebration. This one is from five to seven o'clock at Bryant Park.

00:14:46.434 --> 00:14:53.993
- Please, if you have youngsters or you even want to come yourself, come join us for the celebration.

00:14:53.993 --> 00:15:01.855
- It's all about safety and bringing pop-up booths at several locations throughout the cities where we've

00:15:01.855 --> 00:15:09.868
- got interactions, survey questions. This is all part of our, part of the City of Bloomington Safe Streets

00:15:09.868 --> 00:15:14.782
- and Roads for All grant, which was given to this, given, awarded

00:15:14.914 --> 00:15:25.589
- to the city of Bloomington last year for around 1.2, 1.4 million dollars. Next item we have is future

00:15:25.589 --> 00:15:36.055
- tip review and oh, I'm sorry, call for projects. Call for projects, this was issued on August 17th.

00:15:36.055 --> 00:15:43.486
- If you look at the link that we've got here, the application deadline,

00:15:43.618 --> 00:15:52.251
- we currently have is September 18th. This allows the local public agencies a full four-week period to

00:15:52.251 --> 00:16:01.391
- determine what their projects are, to fill out the applications, to line up their funding, get the approval

00:16:01.391 --> 00:16:10.193
- from the elected officials that oversee the projects. The anticipated schedule here, you can see August

00:16:10.193 --> 00:16:12.478
- 17th is when we opened it.

00:16:12.610 --> 00:16:21.329
- September 18th the call for projects October 2nd and 4th legal advertisements October 2nd will begin

00:16:21.329 --> 00:16:30.133
- a 30-day public comment period for a draft transportation improvement program which we will submit to

00:16:30.133 --> 00:16:39.111
- end on October 2nd also October 12th will be a drop-in open house public meeting here in McCloskey room

00:16:39.111 --> 00:16:42.046
- here in City Hall not here but in

00:16:42.178 --> 00:16:50.064
- McCloskey room and City Hall first review for the draft draft Technical Advisory Committee and Citizens

00:16:50.064 --> 00:16:57.646
- Advisory Committee is the 21st 23rd is the first review for the Policy Committee October 31st first

00:16:57.646 --> 00:17:05.911
- 30-day public comment period will end December 2nd final draft will have to the Technical Advisory Committee

00:17:05.911 --> 00:17:11.294
- and Citizens Advisory Committee and then the Policy Committee approval

00:17:11.650 --> 00:17:19.545
- for a vote for adoption would be on December 4th, December 9th. We'll be submitting that to the Indiana

00:17:19.545 --> 00:17:27.365
- Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration and FTA. And then hopefully we anticipate

00:17:27.365 --> 00:17:34.956
- receiving approval by February 27th. Now, given all of that, I want to give the caveat that this is

00:17:34.956 --> 00:17:40.574
- very optimistic. Federal agencies have been delayed because of staff cuts

00:17:40.962 --> 00:17:47.578
- Federal Highway Administration normally would take four weeks to review something and now it's been

00:17:47.578 --> 00:17:54.789
- somewhere around four months to six months So therefore we would hope to have the transportation improvement

00:17:54.789 --> 00:18:01.537
- program approved by February in reality it could end up being as late as March or April and then also

00:18:01.537 --> 00:18:05.374
- we've got the anticipated program funding levels here and

00:18:05.794 --> 00:18:14.487
- These are shown for fiscal year 28 29 30 31 and 32 with each one of the categories that are currently

00:18:14.487 --> 00:18:23.350
- authorized for our urban area or allocated to our urban area based on our population size. We encourage

00:18:23.350 --> 00:18:32.128
- public participation not only at the public meetings but also in written form until the public comment

00:18:32.128 --> 00:18:33.406
- period closes.

00:18:35.138 --> 00:18:43.586
- project evaluation and selection we're using this this time around we're using the complete streets

00:18:43.586 --> 00:18:52.372
- policy but it's in an advisory capacity for the next tip which will be coming along two years from now.

00:18:52.372 --> 00:19:01.073
- We'll be changing that entire evaluation and selection process based on a merit technical system merit

00:19:01.073 --> 00:19:04.030
- technical circumstance evaluation.

00:19:04.642 --> 00:19:17.383
- Questions, anybody on any of this? Okay. Next item we've got here is the state fiscal year 2027 summary

00:19:17.383 --> 00:19:29.635
- of annual federal funding allocations. I'm not gonna read all of these, but it gives you an idea of

00:19:29.635 --> 00:19:33.310
- how much funding is available

00:19:33.474 --> 00:19:50.206
- for state fiscal year 27 based on our population. Recent tip updates. Future tip development, that's you.

00:19:51.842 --> 00:20:00.246
- I thought that this one was me actually going back to the 2027 summary. So this information is all available

00:20:00.246 --> 00:20:08.265
- in the tip document. But we thought we would pull it out and put it in the memo for you so that so that

00:20:08.265 --> 00:20:16.438
- you could find it and see it easier. So this is basically just a summary of the plan for this this fiscal

00:20:16.438 --> 00:20:20.062
- year's allocations annual federal allocations.

00:20:20.226 --> 00:20:29.934
- So from the period of July 1st, 26 to June 30th, 27. And this just lists out where all of the money

00:20:29.934 --> 00:20:40.127
- that were being allocated in this fiscal year is going and how it's changed from the original allocation

00:20:40.127 --> 00:20:42.942
- for various reasons, whether

00:20:43.106 --> 00:20:54.601
- due to exchanges with other MPOs or any extra funds that have been granted. And so this year, as previously

00:20:54.601 --> 00:21:05.564
- approved by MPO committees, the fiscal year 27 funding is going towards High Street Multi-Use Path and

00:21:05.564 --> 00:21:09.502
- then the downtown curb ramps project

00:21:11.618 --> 00:21:24.808
- preliminary engineering phase. If anyone has any questions on that, feel free to let me know. Regarding

00:21:24.808 --> 00:21:37.618
- recent updates, item 611, I don't have any significant updates since the last meeting on current TIP

00:21:37.618 --> 00:21:39.774
- projects, but if

00:21:40.130 --> 00:21:53.996
- Neil or Tim have any more specific changes on the current projects that they want to share, feel free.

00:21:53.996 --> 00:22:08.670
- I don't have anything notable. Okay. Okay. You can check the spreadsheet that's listed in the agenda for any

00:22:10.018 --> 00:22:32.542
- Any of the latest information. Old business which we don't have any. So on to new business. We have a few.

00:22:33.474 --> 00:22:42.878
- amendments for your review and your vote to recommend that the policy committee approve them. The first

00:22:42.878 --> 00:22:52.372
- is FTA funding, Federal Transit Administration funding related project. So this is a Bloomington Transit

00:22:52.372 --> 00:23:02.590
- project that's in the TIP currently. It's called Green Line Design and Engineering, Bus Stop and Infrastructure.

00:23:07.554 --> 00:23:22.652
- And the change that is being requested is to change the funding source from 5309 to 5307 and then to

00:23:22.652 --> 00:23:35.806
- add fiscal year 2027 funds. And this funding is to go to traffic signal prioritization.

00:23:41.666 --> 00:23:54.073
- The second amendment to the tip is also a transit update. It is for the project called new administrative

00:23:54.073 --> 00:24:05.778
- and maintenance facility. Currently there are no funds planned for fiscal year 27, but this request

00:24:05.778 --> 00:24:09.406
- will update the funding to add

00:24:09.538 --> 00:24:18.623
- 23 million to 2027. And this is for phase one of the building construction. The funding for that comes

00:24:18.623 --> 00:24:27.709
- from three different sources. The first being some of the flex money that the transit, the Bloomington

00:24:27.709 --> 00:24:36.176
- Transit has received in the past through MPO funds. And then the others coming from the Transit

00:24:36.176 --> 00:24:38.558
- Administration's accounts.

00:24:41.538 --> 00:24:50.060
- The third request or the third amendment to the tip that we are putting forth for your review is to

00:24:50.060 --> 00:24:59.008
- add a new INDOT project called High Mass Tower Lighting Replacement at various interchanges in Vincennes

00:24:59.008 --> 00:25:07.786
- and Seymour districts. And so as usual, we don't have specific locations for these projects. They like

00:25:07.786 --> 00:25:08.894
- to put these

00:25:09.602 --> 00:25:18.729
- general amounts, get them in the documentation, and it tends to accelerate the approval processes in

00:25:18.729 --> 00:25:28.038
- the future once they have those specific locations figured out. And finally, also would like to update

00:25:28.038 --> 00:25:36.894
- the funding for an INDOT project called Repair or Replace Joints on SR45 over I69, SR48 over I69,

00:25:37.794 --> 00:25:56.732
- And so this project is increasing in funds and taking place in fiscal year 27 this year. Any questions?

00:25:56.732 --> 00:26:07.294
- I don't see any here. I'm not sure if there's any online.

00:26:07.522 --> 00:26:17.031
- Does not look like there's any hands raised. So I guess with that We move on to approve the amendments.

00:26:17.031 --> 00:26:26.357
- Is there a motion to approve? item 8 1 Thanks, John Is there a second? Second, thanks Neil So a voice

00:26:26.357 --> 00:26:34.494
- vote all in favor would say aye. Aye Any opposed would be same sign and any abstentions?

00:26:37.826 --> 00:26:46.384
- With that, it looks like motion carries. Thanks, everyone. Looks like next on the agenda is public comment.

00:26:46.384 --> 00:26:54.625
- If there's anybody here that has a public comment, please come to the podium. I don't see anybody here.

00:26:54.625 --> 00:27:03.262
- Anybody online, please raise your hand. I'm not seeing any Katie. I'm not sure if you guys are either. Okay.

00:27:03.490 --> 00:27:10.410
- Moving on, any communications from committee members on non-voting members not included on the agenda?

00:27:10.410 --> 00:27:17.128
- I have two quick things. One of them is that Monroe County recently, we took part in a study by the

00:27:17.128 --> 00:27:24.250
- Silver Jackets, which is an organization of the Army Corps of Engineers. They work primarily on flooding.

00:27:24.250 --> 00:27:31.035
- And we, as well as the city of Bloomington, kind of collaborated in Ellitsville and EMA and the fire

00:27:31.035 --> 00:27:31.774
- districts.

00:27:32.066 --> 00:27:37.639
- To receive a couple turn around don't drown signs and so there was a process but we're receiving I think

00:27:37.639 --> 00:27:43.106
- two signs For streets where we have experienced flooding in the past so that that's gonna be happening

00:27:43.106 --> 00:27:48.785
- sometime in September and then with all the flooding we received in the state of Indiana we were fortunate

00:27:48.785 --> 00:27:52.766
- in Monroe County not to experience as much as our friends to the north and

00:27:53.122 --> 00:27:59.706
- The Monroe County GIS team put together a new precipitation app that's showing kind of live data from

00:27:59.706 --> 00:28:06.226
- the NWS, as well as crowdsourced data from, I'm gonna butcher it, I wanna say it's COCORAS, which is

00:28:06.226 --> 00:28:12.810
- kind of a citizen science organization that monitors creeks and things like that for precipitation as

00:28:12.810 --> 00:28:19.330
- it occurs. So we have that as well as some kind of nifty flood predictions that'll show up as we get

00:28:19.330 --> 00:28:22.622
- extreme rainfall events. So that's on our website.

00:28:23.234 --> 00:28:31.410
- just for folks to look at as we get heavy amounts of rain that we're not experiencing over 100 year

00:28:31.410 --> 00:28:39.912
- periods. Any other communications or? Seems like it. We had a very busy agenda today, but it seems like

00:28:39.912 --> 00:28:48.170
- we got through it pretty quickly, which happens. Any topic suggestions for future agendas that folks

00:28:48.170 --> 00:28:52.094
- might have? It looks like that is none as well.

00:28:53.506 --> 00:28:59.553
- Okay, so we have a couple upcoming meetings coming up. The Citizens Advisory Committee is taking place

00:28:59.553 --> 00:29:05.601
- today as well at 5.30 p.m. That's a hybrid meeting. And then we have the Policy Committee taking place

00:29:05.601 --> 00:29:11.531
- August 28th, which I believe is Friday at 10.30 a.m. That will also be hybrid. The next meeting with

00:29:11.531 --> 00:29:17.402
- the Technical Advisory Committee will take place September 23rd at 10 a.m. in this room. With that,

00:29:17.402 --> 00:29:21.982
- I guess we will adjourn. So thanks much staff, and thanks for everybody here.

00:29:23.234 --> 00:29:23.582
- See ya.
