2050 METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLAN PRESENTATION #2
Mr. Koehler and Mr. Rudd, OKI Staff, delivered the second presentation related to the update of the
Metropolitan Transportation Plan, which covered existing conditions, specifically Transportation
Performance Measures and Demographics. Mr. Koehler presented trends for different transportation
performance measures since the last Plan update four years ago. This included safety, pavement
condition, bridge condition, congestion and bus ridership. Following is a summary of remarks made by
Mr. Koehler.
Safety - The number and rate of both fatalities & serious injuries has increased over the most recent
5-year period. Bike and Pedestrian exhibit similar trends.
Infrastructure Condition - When it comes to pavement, there are mixed reviews. The percentage of
interstates in good condition has risen 6% to 85%. The non-interstate roads in good condition has
dropped from 37% to 30%.
Bridges - The trend for bridges is mixed in the OKI region. The percentage of bridges in good condition
has increased slightly, but so has the percentage in poor condition. He said neither change is significant.
Mobility & Congestion – figures provided are from the OKI model and are similar to many large urban
areas in the country. The OKI model showing VMT increasing and the amount of travel occurring under
congested conditions increasing as well.
Transit- Regionally the number of bus trips per year has declined for the past 7 years. The OKI region
has experienced a 10% drop from 2010 and 15% from 2012. However, Butler County Regional Transit
Authority (BCRTA) reported 37,000 trips in 2010. In 2018 it was over 620,000.
Mr. Koehler reminded the ICC committee members to submit projects for consideration such as new
road or add lanes, new regional multi-use path, new transit facilities such as transit hubs and park n
ride and new port facilities. Deadline to submit is November 1 with the description, location and cost
estimate in today’s dollars. Mr. Brandon Rudd, OKI Senior Planner/Demographer, presented
demographic data for the region as a part of the development of the OKI 2050 Metropolitan
Transportation Plan (or Long Range Plan).
Mr. Rudd, OKI staff, discussed the current demographic make-up of the OKI region, presenting data on
current population, household, and employment totals for the entire region, as well as individual
counties within the region. He also presented the 2050 population, household, and employment
projections—which are based on the population projections programs at the State Data Centers for
Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.
Additionally, Mr. Rudd discussed where population growth would take place within the OKI region’s
counties, based on current trends, building permit data, zoning ordinances, and future land use plans.
Finally, he gave an overview of commuting patterns and modes within each of the eight counties within
our region.

FY19 TRANSPORTATION PLANNING YEAR END PERFORMANCE AND EXPENDITURE REPORT Mr. Koehler, OKI Staff, presented OKI’s Year End Performance and Expenditure Report. The report
requires Executive Committee approval. He said the report lists staff activity and expenditures during
the past year on work elements for FY2019.
Ms. Minter moved to recommend to Executive Committee approval of Resolution 2019-22 Concerning
Acceptance of the FY 2019 Transportation Planning Year End Performance and Expenditure Report.
Mr. Sievers seconded the motion, motion carried.
FY20-23 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/ADMINISTRATIVE MODIFICATION #2 Mr. Andy Reser, OKI Staff, TIP Administrative Modification #2 involves 23 projects. I’ll point out a few
of those changes; In Ohio, Mt Healthy Signal System CMAQ project is being moved up from FY21 to
FY20 and the latest estimate came in much lower than the original estimate (not reflected here). The
Cincinnati Bulk Terminals CMAQ project, which adds about ¾ mile of siding track to support switching
operations, it appears that project is finally ready to sell, but latest estimates are much higher than
anticipated, ORDC, the Ohio Rail Development Commission, has requested an additional 10% of the
original award and the RR will make up the rest. In Kentucky, 6-454 in Ludlow, there is some
reallocation of existing funding amounts among phases in order to fully fund the design phase. In
Indiana, the Modification is mostly small INDOT maintenance projects that we can add to an existing
Grouped Project or Line Item.
Mr. Foster moved to recommend of TIP Administrative Modification #2. Ms. Huller seconded the
motion, motion carried.
FY20-23 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/AMENDMENT #2 Mr. Andy Reser, OKI Staff, TIP Amendment #2 makes change to two project in Ohio, adds three projects
in Kentucky and in Indiana, increases funding for two projects. In Butler County, a safety project to
install a roundabout at Wayne Madison and Hamilton Trenton Road has increased costs and Butler
County is putting more local funds to keep this project moving forward; whenever we have a significant
cost increase like this, regardless whether its federal or local funds, ODOT requires an amendment to
the Statewide TIP. In Hamilton County, you may recall OKI awarded funds to connect the Little Miami
Trail to the Lunken Trail by utilizing the existing Beechmont Bridge; everything is still on schedule and
on budget. However, ODOT can save labor costs by combining this project with some routine bridge
preservation work to paint and replace bearings on the bridge at the same time.
In Kentucky, KYTC has awarded three new TA projects from their pool of statewide TA funds. Those
projects are a Multi-Use Path along KY 237 in Hebron, a new sidewalk near Grandview Elementary in
Bellevue and new sidewalk along Dayton Pike in Dayton.
In Indiana, we propose to increase OKI’s share of STP funds to complete the State Line Road
realignment project. A loan with another MPO in Indiana, as well as some shifting of other projects,
5 | P a g e
allows us to add funds to this project. The second Dearborn project is a major increase and adding the
right-of-way (ROW) phase for an INDOT bridge replacement project on SR 46.
A draft of TIP Amendment #2 was placed on our website for comment since August 26th, it was also
sent to our Interagency Consultation Group, and we have received no comments.
Mr. Listerman moved to recommend to Executive Committee approval of Resolution 2019-23
Concerning Amendment #2 of the Fiscal Years 2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program. Mr.
Hubbard seconded the motion, motion carried.
OTHER BUSINESS Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, announced ODOT would be hosting an “LPA Day” at District 8 offices on December 9.
Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, reminded everyone that the Prioritization Subcommittee is meeting following ICC today.
PUBLIC COMMENT None. NEXT MEETING The next ICC meeting scheduled for Tuesday, October 8, 2019 in the OKI Board Room at 9:30 a.m. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Mr. Busofsky and seconded by Mr. Voss to adjourn the meeting at 10:35 a.m., motion carried. ______________________________ Andy Reser TIP MANAGER /rmf 09/11/19

Commissioner Brian Painter led the Executive Committee in the Pledge of Allegiance.
Announcements First Vice President Moore on this September 12 the day after 9/11 reminded that we would never forget our first responders what they do for our community and how special they truly are. First Vice President Moore reminded everyone that this is an Executive Committee and that alternates are able to vote. He reminded everyone to sign in for attendance purposes and state your name when making a motion and or second.
ITEM #1: ADMINISTRATIVE
A. First Vice President’s Report
First Vice President Moore the City of Cincinnati has requested that John Brazina serve as the alternate for Greg Landsman and Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has requested that Mike Bezold serve as alternate for Bob Yeager. Mr. Aiello moved to accept the Executive Committee alternate changes as presented. The motion was seconded by Mr. Okum, motion carried.
B. Approval of June 13, 2019 Board of Directors Meeting Minutes
First Vice President Moore called for corrections/and or additions to the June 13, 2019 Board of Directors meeting minutes. There being none, Mr. Rogers moved that the minutes be approved as mailed. Mr. Brian Painter seconded the motion, motion carried. C. Executive Director’s Report
Mr. Policinski said welcome and that he hoped everyone had an enjoyable Summer. He reported it has been a busy summer for OKI and work on OKI’s 2050 plan is at the top of the list. In June, it was mentioned that this is the first long range plan that will include widespread use of AV/CV. The critical analysis is to predict the rate or path at which AV/CV will infiltrate the OKI region. Since this is an estimate introduction of AV/CV for the next 32 years, he asked any board member who has analysis or data or viewpoint to contact Mr. Koehler or Mr. Policinski and schedule a chat. Mr. Policinski announced the “crown Jewel” part of Riverfront Commons project development has started. It is called the crown jewel because it is the most visible part of the project that will transform the riverfront on the Commonwealth side as it connects all the river cities from Ft. Thomas to Ludlow with an 11.5 mile bike and pedestrian path. OKI has funds totaling $4.8 million into the project.
4
Mr. Policinski reported that CVG set a new monthly record in July serving 420,721 local passengers, which is a 3.8 percent increase year-over-year. Year to date, local passengers volume is up 4.8 percent. The average airfares at CVG remain the lowest in the region according to the first quarter of 2019 average airfare report from U.S. Department of Transportation. Passengers continue to save on average $250 per ticket. OKI continues to work with CVG as they prepare for the dramatic growth that has and will take place with the DHL and Amazon Prime expansion. OKI is working with CVG to anticipate needs for new roads as well as how to introduce autonomy into their solutions for easier passenger, workers, baggage and cargo flow. Mr. Policinski reported he had the opportunity to meet with Director of ODOT, Jack Marchbanks this week and his staff. Talk included Brent Spence Bridge and the necessity for the new bridge to ramp up. In just a few years as Amazon Prime and DHL come on line, both truck and passenger traffic will grow. The congestion will only get worse and the region’s ability to deliver goods and people will feel the pinch. He said nationally, the projections for freight traffic will grow by 43% in the next decade. Add that to OKI’s current increased freight needs and the Brent Spence Bridge replacement is at the heart of OKI’s regions ability to meet its obligations. The director of ODOT is on board to make this project happen as quickly as possible. Mr. Policinski reported that he also talked with ODOT Director Marchbanks about the bypass concept that would build an outer loop starting west of the OKI region on I-71 in Northern Kentucky and ending with a connection to I-75 in Butler County. ODOT staff has been directed by the Ohio legislature to review the conceptual plan for the bypass and provide an opinion by the end of the year. OKI looks forward to that report and the corresponding Outer Loop study being conducted in Northern Kentucky by KYTC to provide facts to this concept. He thanked Governor Bevin and the Ohio Legislature, ODOT and KYTC for advancing the analysis. Lastly, Director Marchbanks was very appreciative of how OKI board does its work and was impressed that this board, from three states and three different forms of government, using a one-man-one-vote can do work by consensus. OKI is truly a model for the state and nation. Finally, the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, at its annual dinner celebration, gave the Unity Award to Judges Moore, Pendery and Knochelmann. He said the three judges are beacon of cooperation and humble public service in a political arena that is fraught with division and hubris. OKI has a lot to be thankful for in this region, but having these three public servants shaping much of the OKI region is the top of our appreciation. Judge Moore thanked Mr. Policinski and everyone that came out for this event.
D. Legislative Update
Ms. Platt, OKI Staff, reported that congress returned from the August recess, and have three weeks to avoid a government shutdown. She said the current appropriations run out at the end of September. She said it is expected Congress to pass an interim continuing resolution to prevent any funding lapse while the chamber works on passing regular long-term appropriation bills.

The 2019 OKI Annual Luncheon is Wednesday, October 9th at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center. OKI’s keynote speaker is Congressman Thomas Massie. All board members receive complimentary admission however you will still need to register. Any questions, you may contact Marilyn Osborne or myself.
E. Finance Officer's Report
Ms. Purcy Nance, staff, reported that the Finance Officer’s Report was distributed around the
table. She explained that this report is on the financial statements for the period ended June 30,
2019 and includes current cash information.
Ms. Nance referred members to page 2 for the current information. As of September 6, OKI had
$737,792 in the PNC checking account, $15,449 in the HSA/FSA checking account and $453,925
in the STAR Ohio money market mutual fund. Ms. Nance reported that there has been no recent
activity on OKI’s line of credit and there is no outstanding balance at report date.
Ms. Nance stated that page 3 contains the balance sheet as of June 30. She reported that Cash
and Investments are up 17% from this time last year. Receivables are down 19% from this time
last year due to completion of the Freight Conference and the timing of routine invoice payments.
Ms. Nance reported that at June 30, there were $947,000 in receivables; all associated with May
and June invoices. She further stated that payables are up 39% or $151,000 from this time last
year due to completion of the freight conference offset by increased 5310 pass through activities,
Ohio River Bridge Count station installation, and attorney’s fees.
Ms. Nance stated that Revenue information is located on page 4. She reported that at June 30,
OKI is 100% of the way through the budgeted year. Overall, revenues are at 97%, which is on
budget. She noted the following items: Federal revenues are ahead of budget due to the timing
of FTA project activities; and Contributed Services are ahead of budget due to timing of FTA pass
through project activities.
Ms. Nance stated that page 5 contains Expense information. She reported that overall, expenses
are at 95%, which is on budget. Ms. Nance noted the following items: Category 2 – Fringe Benefits
– are under budget due to savings experienced on health insurance renewals, we budgeted for a
15% increase and experienced a 1% increase. Category 3 – Travel, Subsistence and Professional
Development is behind budget: due to the timing of professional development activities and
Board travel. Category 6 – Contributed Services are ahead of budget due to timing of FTA pass
through project activities.
Ms. Nance stated that page 6 contains the General Fund Balance information. She reported that
the General Fund Balance has had a net increase of approximately $110,000 year to date,
6
resulting in a year to date fund balance of $1,477,000; of this amount, $432,000 is committed to
active projects.
Ms. Nance explained that during FY19, $82,000 was used to match carryover projects resulting
in a $192,000 increase in fund balance associated with FY19 project activities to date.
Approximately $52,000 will be needed to match FY19 projects carrying into FY20. After all FY19
projects are completed, it is anticipated there will be a fund balance increase of $140,000 from
FY19 activities.
There being no discussion, Mr. Okum moved that the Executive Committee accept and file the
Finance Officer’s Report dated September 12, 2019. Mr. David Painter seconded the motion;
motion carried.

is a summary of remarks made by Mr. Koehler
Safety - The number and rate of both fatalities & serious injuries has increased over the most
recent 5-year period. Bike and Pedestrian exhibit similar trends.
Infrastructure Condition - When it comes to pavement, there are mixed reviews. The percentage
of interstates in good condition has risen 6% to 85%. The non-interstate roads in good condition

occurring under congested conditions increasing as well.
Transit- Regionally the number of bus trips per year has declined for the past 7 years. The OKI
region has experienced a 10% drop from 2010 and 15% from 2012. However, Butler County
Regional Transit Authority (BCRTA) reported 37,000 trips in 2010. In 2018 it was over 620,000.
7
Mr. Koehler reminded the Executive Committee members to submit projects for consideration
such as new road or add lanes, new regional multi-use path, new transit facilities such as transit
hubs and park n ride and new port facilities. Deadline to submit is November 1 with the
description, location and cost estimate in today’s dollars.
Mr. Rudd, OKI Senior Planner/Demographer, presented demographic data for the region as a part
of the development of the OKI 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (or Long Range Plan).
Mr. Rudd discussed the current demographic make-up of the OKI region, presenting data on
current population, household, and employment totals for the entire region, as well as individual
counties within the region. He also presented the 2050 population, household, and employment
projections—which are based on the population projections programs at the State Data Centers
for Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.
Additionally, Mr. Rudd discussed where population growth would take place within the OKI
region’s counties, based on current trends, building permit data, zoning ordinances, and future
land use plans. Finally, he gave an overview of commuting patterns and modes within each of the
eight counties within our region.
ITEM #3: INTERMODAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE REPORT Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, reported the Intermodal Coordinating Committee met on Tuesday
September 10th. Lorrie Platt and Jim Pickering presented the Legislative and Technology report.
Andrew Bremer of DriveOhio and John Gray of AECOM, gave a presentation on Ohio’s framework
for connected and automated vehicles. Bob Koehler and Brandon Rudd OKI staff provided
performance measure and demographic information to be used in the development of OKI’s
2050 Plan. The ICC approved Administrative Modification #2 to the FY20-23 TIP. Two resolutions
were recommended for your approval. First, was the FY19 Transportation Planning Performance
and Expenditure Report and second, was TIP Amendment #2.
A. OKI FY 2019 Transportation Planning Year End Performance and Expenditure
Report
Mr. Koehler, OKI Staff, presented OKI’s Year End Performance and Expenditure Report. The
report requires Executive Committee approval. He said the report lists staff activity and
expenditures during the past year on work elements for FY2019.
Mr. David Painter moved to recommend approval of Resolution 2019-22 Concerning Acceptance
of the FY 2019 Transportation Planning Year End Performance and Expenditure Report. Mr.
Rogers seconded the motion, motion carried.
8
B. Amendment #2 of the FY 2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, reported that TIP Amendment #2 makes changes to two project in Ohio,
adds three projects in Kentucky, and in Indiana, increases funding for two projects. In Butler
County, a safety project to install a roundabout at Wayne Madison and Hamilton Trenton Road
has increased costs and Butler County is putting more local funds to keep this project moving
forward; whenever we have a significant cost increase like this, regardless whether its federal or
local funds, ODOT requires an amendment to the Statewide TIP. In Hamilton County, you may
recall OKI awarded funds to connect the Little Miami Trail to the Lunken Trail by utilizing the
existing Beechmont bridge; That project is still on schedule and on budget, however ODOT can
save labor costs by combining this project with some routine bridge preservation work to paint
and replace bearings on the bridge at the same time.
In Kentucky, KYTC has awarded three new TA projects from their pool of statewide
Transportation Alternatives funding. Those projects are a Multi-Use Path along KY 237 in Hebron,
a new sidewalk near Grandview Elementary in Bellevue and new sidewalk along Dayton Pike in
Dayton.
In Indiana, we propose to increase OKI’s share of STP funds to complete the State Line Road
realignment project. [A loan with another MPO in Indiana, as well as some shifting of other
projects, allows us to add funds to this project]. The second Dearborn project is a cost increase
and adding the ROW phase for an INDOT bridge replacement project on SR 46. A draft of TIP
Amendment #2 was placed on our website for comment since August 26th, it was also sent to our
Interagency Consultation Group, and we have received no comments.
Mr. Okum moved to recommend approval of Resolution 2019-22 Concerning Amendment #2 of
the Fiscal Years 2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program. Mr. Aiello seconded the
motion, motion carried.
Mr. McCormack moved to amend Resolution 2019-22 with a correction in the total amount for an Indiana Project in Dearborn County/State Line Road to $2,291,256. Mr. Probst seconded the motion, motion carried. ITEM #4: Authorization to Enter into a Contract for Human Resource Services for the Council
Mr. Policinski It was determined to be more cost effective to shift office management duties to
existing staff and engage the services of human resources professional rather than employ a full
time staff person. The purpose of this resolution is to authorize the Executive Director to execute
a contract for Fiscal Year 2020 services with the selected consultant at a cost not to exceed
$86,000.
9
Mr. Rogers moved to accept Resolution 2019-24 Authorization to Enter into a Contract for Human
Resource Services for the Council. Mr. David Painter seconded the motion, motion carried.
ITEM #5: Proposed Amendment #44 to OKI’s Water Quality Management
Mr. David Rutter, OKI Staff, reported OKI completed the original Regional Water Quality
Management Plan in 1977 (WQM Plan), as called for by Section 208 of the Clean Water Act.
Amendments to the plan are needed periodically to reflect changing circumstances. Amendment
#44 has been prepared to update wastewater facility planning area boundaries and management
agency designations for the Village of South Lebanon and vicinity in Warren County.
Mr. Sams moved to recommend approval of Resolution 2019-25 Concerning Amendment #44 to

AMENDMENT #3 OF THE OKI FISCAL YEARS 2020-2023 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
DESCRIPTION: The attached exhibit, in resolution form, describes the specific
revision proposed. BACKGROUND: OKI is responsible for preparing biennially a four-year program of
projects in this region that will make use of available Federal-Aid Highway funds and Federal Transit Administration funds. Inclusion in this program is a prerequisite for such federal assistance. Because the scope, cost, and timing of the included projects are subject to periodic change, and because new projects are continually being developed, the TIP is formally amended several times a year, as needed.
The amendment reflected in the proposed resolution includes changes to twenty transit projects in Kentucky. All projects are exempt from transportation conformity requirements. The TIP is periodically amended, as needed, to reflect additions, deletions or revisions to programmed projects.
Prior to presentation to the Board of Directors, the proposed
amendment is reviewed by staff and presented to the Intermodal Coordinating Committee. The Intermodal Coordinating Committee considers the issue, and makes a recommendation to Executive Committee.
AUTHORITY: 23 CFR, §450.324. FUNDING: The fiscally constrained items proposed for amendment have an
associated funding amount and source specified. Staff has determined that there is adequate funding available, or anticipated to be available, and the funding amounts are shown in year of expenditure figures for these projects.
ACTION RECOMMENDED: Adoption of Resolution OKI 2019-27. EXHIBIT: Resolution (OKI 2019-27) Concerning Amendment #3 of the OKI
Fiscal Years 2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program.
OKI 2019-27

OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE OHIO-KENTUCKY-INDIANA REGIONAL COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS
CONCERNING AMENDMENT #3 OF THE

WHEREAS, the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI) is designated as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) by the Governors of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana acting through the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) and in cooperation with locally elected officials in the OKI region; and
WHEREAS, the Intermodal Coordinating Committee (ICC), as the technical advisory committee to OKI, has reviewed and recommended the projects listed in the resolution and recommend that they be added/amended into the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP); and
WHEREAS, all federally funded transit and highway projects in the Ohio Counties of Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren, the Kentucky Counties of Boone, Campbell and Kenton and the Indiana County of Dearborn must be included in the TIP prior to the expenditure of federal funds and be listed with year of expenditure dollars; and
WHEREAS, the amendments are consistent with the OKI 2040 Regional Transportation Plan as amended on October 11, 2018 and the OKI Regional ITS Architecture adopted on September 8, 2016; and
WHEREAS, all projects included in Amendment 3 – Fiscal Years 2020-2023 Transportation Improvement Program are exempt from transportation conformity requirements for air quality; and
WHEREAS, the opportunity for public participation has been provided per OKI’s Public Participation Plan; and
WHEREAS, the environmental justice impacts of these amendments have been considered with “Executive Order 12898 Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low Income Populations”; and
WHEREAS, this amendment will result in a TIP that remains fiscally constrained: Now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Directors of the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments at its regular public meeting on October 10, 2019 hereby amends the Fiscal Years 2020 – 2023 Transportation Improvement Program as shown in the attached Amendment #3 project table:
