Motion: Lisa Qualls made a motion to adopt the self-certification resolution. Ms. Anthony seconded the motion. Upon being put to a vote, the motion was approved. The Town of Huntersville voted in opposition to the motion.
10. Prioritization 4.0 Presenter: Neil Burke Summary: Mr. Burke provided information to the MPO via a Power Point presentation, the contents of which are incorporated into the minutes. The presentation’s purpose was to obtain the MPO’s approval of the P4.0 local input points methodology and to recommend a public involvement strategy. Three public involvement options were reviewed, and it was noted that Option A was recommended by staff because it addressed board concerns voiced at the February meeting when a preference was stated for two separate comment periods for the Regional Impact and Division Needs tiers. The presentation then moved into a review of the local input points methodology. Mr. Burke stated that NCDOT requires MPOs to approve their methodologies during each Prioritization cycle. It was pointed out that NCDOT noticed a typographical error in the methodology regarding the number of points to be assigned to non-highway projects in the Regional Impact tier. The correct number of points is 300, not 375. Mr. Burke stated that TCC had unanimously recommended that the MPO approve the methodology in part because it was very successful in getting projects funded during Prioritization 3.0. Motion: Mr. Johnson made a motion to approve the P4.0 local input points methodology and to endorse a public involvement strategy to include two separate comment periods for the Regional Impacts and Division Needs tiers. Mr. Kidwell seconded the motion. Upon being put to a vote, the motion was unanimously approved.
11. Bonus Allocation Reprogramming Recommendation Presenter: Bill Coxe, TCC Vice-Chairman Summary: Mr. Coxe provided information to the MPO via a Power Point presentation, the contents of which are incorporated into the minutes. The presentation’s purpose was to obtain the MPO’s approval of a proposed reallocation of Bonus Allocation (BA) funds. The reallocation was made necessary by NCDOT’s decision to fund a BA-funded project (widening of US 21 in Cornelius, U-5767) with state revenue, thereby freeing the $23 million allocated to the project to be assigned to a different project(s). The Project Oversight Committee made the following recommendation to the TCC:
1. Reallocated BA funds should be programmed to address the $10.9 million over-programming amount in the Statewide Mobility Tier and the $4.9 million over-programming amount in the Regional Impact Tier.
2. Reallocated BA funds should be appropriated to the US 21 and Gilead Road intersection improvement project in Huntersville (U-5114). U-5114 is an existing BA project currently in design. The BA funds would replace $3.6 million of STP-DA funds which would then be available to be reprogrammed to another project(s).
3. The remainder of the reallocated BA funds, $2.7 million, should be held in reserve as a contingency fund for approved Regional Impact tier projects.
Mr. Coxe stated that the TCC agreed with the POC’s recommendation and unanimously recommended that the MPO approve the reallocation.
Motion: Chairman Taylor made a motion to approve the reallocation of Bonus Allocation funds as presented. Ms. Anthony seconded the motion. Upon being put to a vote, the motion was unanimously approved.

12. Project Oversight Committee Update Presenter: Bill Coxe, TCC Vice-Chairman Summary: Mr. Coxe provided information to the MPO via a Power Point presentation, the contents of which are incorporated into the minutes. The presentation’s purpose was to update the board on the work of the Project Oversight Committee (POC). Mr. Coxe stated that the POC was established in September 2015 by the board as a subcommittee of the TCC and charged it with recommending projects to be funded using Surface Transportation Program-Direct Attributable (STP-DA) and Bonus Allocation (BA) funds and to monitor the implementation of projects funded with CRTPO funding sources: STP-DA; BA; Congestion Management & Air Quality (CMAQ) and Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). The POC’s efforts to date were reviewed as were the general themes of its discussions.
13. Freight Roundtable
Presenter: Robert Cook Summary: Mr. Cook reported on the FHWA Administrator’s Roundtable on Freight Economy held on March 4. The event was sponsored by the FHWA and the Charlotte Chamber. The event’s purpose was to highlight the importance of freight to the regional economy and to identify ways to improve freight transportation.
14. Upcoming Agenda Items
Presenter: Robert Cook Summary: Mr. Cook stated that the following items would be brought before the board for action at its April meeting: a request to begin Comprehensive Transportation Plan public involvement and reallocations of STP-DA funds.

TO: CRTPO Delegates & Alternates FROM: Bill Coxe, TCC Vice-Chair DATE: April 15, 2016 SUBJECT: STP-DA Funds Reallocation
Project Oversight Committee Recommendation ACTION REQUESTED Approve the reallocation of STP-DA funds to existing projects as proposed by the Project Oversight Committee (POC). TCC RECOMMENDATION At its April 2016 meeting, the Technical Coordinating Committee unanimously endorsed the POC’s proposal and recommended that the MPO approve the reallocation of STP-DA funds as listed on the attached spreadsheet. BACKGROUND
• The POC developed recommendations for TCC consideration regarding the reallocation of STP-DA funds to existing projects.
• NCDOT has approved additional state revenue to fund the I-485 and Weddington Road interchange (R-211EC) and the Idlewild Road Widening (U-4913) projects. The CRTPO had previously approved its STP-DA funds for these projects, therefore these funds have been returned for reprioritization at an amount of $21.7 million
• An additional $3.6 million in STP-DA funds have been returned for reallocation as a result of the POC’s recommendation to re-allocate $3.6 million in Bonus Allocation funding to the US 21 and Gilead Road Intersection Improvement project (U-5514), thus freeing up additional STP-DA funds to be reallocated.
• CRTPO approved the hold out amount of $9.4 million of STP-DA funds to address small-operations-type improvements during the 2016-2025 TIP adoption.
REALLOCATION OF STP-DA FUNDS TO EXISTING PROJECTS
• The POC contacted all project managers with active STP-DA projects to determine if additional funds were needed to complete the projects.
• The POC developed the following criteria for determining the appropriateness of recommending additional STP-DA funds for the projects:
o Is the project shovel ready within the first four years of the TIP? o Loss of opportunity? (Leveraging other funds) o Ensure that a portion of the funds are spent on non-highway projects o Geographical Distribution o Funding Structure o Amount of current STP-DA funding vs. Requested STP-DA funding
• Out of the 25 active STP-DA projects, the POC had requests for additional funding from twelve of these projects.
Page 2 of 2
• The POC conducted interviews with the project managers that had requested additional STP-DA funds to gain an understanding of the need for these funds.
• During the February 25 POC meeting, a recommendation was developed to allocate additional funds to five current STP-DA projects at an amount of $3,466,537.

TO: CRTPO Delegates & Alternates FROM: Neil Burke, AICP, PTP Planning Coordinator DATE: April 15, 2016 SUBJECT: Call for New STP-DA Projects FRAMEWORK The CRTPO’s Project Oversight Committee (POC) prepared the following framework to be used in the consideration of new STP-DA funding requests. The framework is intended to be flexible to allow for modifications throughout the process.
1. Combine Returned funds ($26.3M) and Small Operations (small-ops) ($9.4M) into a single prioritization process
• Target $9.4 million to small operations-type projects 2. Priority to “shovel-ready” or projects that need gap funding to move forward 3. Target 20% of funds to non-highway modes 4. Project cost ranges for all modes
• Minimum: $500,000 preferred • Maximum: less than 25% of all funds available preferred
5. Consider geographical dispersion CRITERIA FOR NEW STP-DA FUNDING REQUESTS The POC has provided the following recommendations for new STP-DA funding requests:
• Highway and Transit Projects: Use elements of the Capital Area MPO’s Project Prioritization Scoring Criteria and elements that have traditionally been included in criteria during previous CRTPO project calls. The total possible project score is 100 points.
Criteria Definition Number of Points
Problem Statement
Identify the problem and explain how project will solve problem. Explain how project will addresses the goals and objectives in the MTP.
