TRANSPORTATION PLANNING PROGRESS REPORT Mr. Foster, Chair, asked the committee members to review the monthly progress reports for March

and comment as desired. There being no comments, the progress report for the Transportation

Department was accepted.

LEGISLATIVE AND TECHNOLOGY UPDATE Ms. Patrick, OKI Staff, good morning, yesterday, 14 federal agencies, including DOT and the EPA, signed the “One Federal Decision” MoU. This agreement puts into effect a 2017 executive order. Under the MoU, the co-signing agencies will work together on the necessary environmental and permitting decisions for major infrastructure projects. The goal of the agreement is to complete the entire review and permitting process within two years. To this end, the MoU calls for the establishment of one lead federal agency to navigate the complete process. In addition, the federal agencies commit to conducting their review processes concurrently.

Ms. Patrick, OKI Staff, reported the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber recently launched a new transportation initiative, called The Connected Region. Its intent is to make an immediate priority of establishing better connections to jobs, education, health care and entertainment destinations. The chamber cited the active participation of business leaders as critical to improving the region’s connectivity. So, as part of this initiative, the chamber will work to increase the engagement of the private sector in regional transportation discussions. Ms. Patrick, OKI Staff, mentioned OKI is hosting the 2018 Ohio Conference on Freight and if you haven’t already done so, please mark your calendars for August 15-17. It’ll be held at the Hilton Netherland downtown. You can also find more information on the conference website ohiofreight.org. It’s the one-stop shop for all conference information and resources. Here, you can register, as well as submit a presentation proposal for the breakout sessions. We’re thrilled to have already secured two of the four keynotes, Kroger’s Senior Director of Supply Chain and the SVP of blockchain company Very. OKI is working hard to ensure the conference features compelling speakers from a range of backgrounds who will address freight’s current state and where it’s headed. Be on the lookout for social media promotion of our speakers. OKI ask that you help us by sharing and retweeting.

TECHNOLOGY Mr. Mason, OKI Staff, reported on an article yesterday that stated: as we wait for a world of futuristic transportation to appear before our eyes, we’re all the kid in the back seat asking “are we there yet”. Unfortunately, that trip may take a bit longer. This past month, transportation technology had some tough setbacks and lessons to be learned. Uber has decided to temporarily halt its autonomous systems to investigate a fatal accident in Arizona. The accident involved an autonomous vehicle, which had a driver behind the wheel that hit and killed a pedestrian. About a year ago, Uber suspended the same program after a different crash in Arizona, which did not result in any serious injuries. Tesla also announced that its Autopilot feature was indeed activated when it crashed into a highway barrier killing the driver. Tesla said the driver had received several visual and one audible hands-on warning earlier in the drive, and the driver’s hands were not detected on the wheel for six seconds prior to the collision.

3 | P a g e

Mr. Mason, OKI Staff, said it was announced yesterday that Uber acquired the bike sharing company Jump. Jump currently runs GPS-enabled bike sharing programs in twelve cities all over the world. The acquisition is a signal that Uber doesn’t want to be seen as just a taxi substitute, but an urban mobility company. Mr. Mason, OKI Staff, said on OKI’s social media postings, there were a couple of articles shared which highlighted projects that have received OKI funding: The City of Montgomery announced an open house allowing residents to review the most recent plan for the modified two-lane roundabout planned for the intersection of Montgomery Road and Ronald Reagan Cross County Highway. The other article we shared was from WVXU reporting on the Variable Message Board Signs being installed at the Banks. OKI’s twitter shared a new story map developed by OKI staff members Gabriella Waesch and Andy Meyer. The story map takes you on a visual journey through the Colerain Township energy plan. Colerain Township is one of potentially eight communities developing a community strategic energy plan with OKI’s assistance. TRANSPORTATION PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT

Ms. Bernadette Dupont, FHWA-KY provided information on the Transportation Performance

Management.

OKI’s ENVIRONMENTAL VIEWER TOOL

Mr. Rutter, OKI Staff, presented OKI’s environmental viewer tool that is available on OKI’s website.

OKI’S TIP WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, reported on the TIP information included on OKI’s website. The complete TIP document and details on any proposed TIP Amendment are available. Sortable project lists and project maps are available at tip.oki.org. Staff is continuing to make improvements to the content and usability of the site. FY18-21 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/ADMINISTRATIVE MODIFICATION #8 Mr. Reser, OKI Staff, said as you may recall, the ICC can approve Administrative Modifications to

the TIP. These are minor changes to cost, timing or funding.

Administrative Modification #8 includes two projects in Indiana. Dearborn County requested to remove FY 18 OKI-STP right-of-way funds from the State Line Road realignment project (#1400675)

and move the funds to the Cold Springs Road Bridge #24 project (#1383444). Mr. Listerman, moved to recommend approval of TIP Administrative Modification #8. Mr. Walker, seconded the motion, motion carried. OKI FY2019 UNIFIED PLANNING WORK PROGRAM Mr. Koehler, OKI Staff, reported on the Unified Planning Work Program which outlines the scope

of work and associated budget for Fiscal Year 2019 which begins July 1st. He referred to the

Executive Summary included in the meeting packet and briefly described the activities for the

agency for the upcoming fiscal year. Mr. Koehler asked for a recommendation for approval of

Resolution 2018-11 concerning approval of the OKI Unified Planning Work Program for Fiscal Year

2019.

4 | P a g e

Mr. Wright moved to recommend approval of resolution 2018-11 Concerning Approval of the OKI

Unified Planning Work Program for Fiscal Year 2019. Mr. Voss seconded the motion, motion

carried.

CERTIFICATION OF THE URBAN TRANSPORTATION PLANNING PROCESS Mr. Koehler, OKI Staff, said MPO’s are required to be certified in the federal metropolitan planning process in order to receive federal funds for transportation projects. Each year OKI self certifies that all the requirements of this process are met, enabling funding to be allocated to local projects. Mr. Koehler stated that OKI is in fact meeting all said requirements and is in in good standing. He asked for recommendation for approval of Resolution 2018-12.

Mr. Listerman moved to recommend approval of Resolution 2018-12 Concerning Certification of

the Urban Transportation Planning Process. Mr. Johnston seconded the motion, motion carried.

AUTHORIZING A CONTRACT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TO INSTALL AND MAINTAIN OHIO RIVER BRIDGE RADAR COUNTERS Mr. Evans, OKI Staff, traffic data is a key element in the analysis of existing conditions and validation of OKI’s travel model. OKI will own and operate the radar traffic data collection units at five of the seven Ohio River Bridges in the OKI Region. OKI is seeking to retain professional services for installation of radar units at two remaining bridge locations (Roebling and Taylor Southgate bridges). Mr. Victor moved to recommend approval of Resolution 2018-13 Authorizing a Contract for Professional Services for Ohio River Bridge Radar Traffic Data Station Maintenance and Installation. Mr. Wright seconded the motion, motion carried. OTHER BUSINESS None. PUBLIC COMMENT None. NEXT MEETING The next meeting of the ICC is scheduled for Tuesday, May 8, 2018 in the OKI Board Room at 9:30 a.m. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Mr. Voss and seconded by Mr. Corbett to adjourn the meeting at 10:22 a.m., motion carried. _______________________________ Andy Reser TIP MANAGER /rmf 04/16/18

Mr. Policinski stated that OKI staff is relentless in developing new tools and apps for use by the region’s communities. The Regional Planning team is working with three communities to develop strategic energy plans—Woodlawn, Colerain and Cleves. The plans are being developed with funds received through the Duke Energy settlement. He encouraged members to visit energy.oki.org to see storyboards about the plans. He explained that once the work with these three cities is complete, OKI will be looking for five more communities with which to work. A flyer with more details was available at the back table or Andy Meyer of the staff can answer any questions. Mr. Policinski provided an update about the work with Uber and the Cincinnati Mobility Lab. He reported that discussions have been taking place about expanding beyond food desserts to also look at mobility to daycare, hospitals and urgent care, post-secondary education and transit. Mr. Policinski pointed out that they are in the early stages of the three year laboratory experiment but are encouraged by the scope of possibilities and Uber’s cooperation. Board Member Pete Metz with the Chamber has been instrumental in this effort.

D. Legislative Update

Ms. Lorrie Platt, staff, reported that, as previously discussed, one of the goals of this administration is to move transportation projects along quicker, through streamlining environmental reviews and speeding up the permitting process. She reported that on the April 9, 14 federal agencies, including DOT and EPA, signed a memorandum of understanding titled One Federal Decision. The agencies involved will work together on necessary environmental and permitting decisions for major infrastructure projects. The goal of the agreement is to complete the entire review and permitting process within two years. The memorandum calls for the establishment of one lead federal agency to navigate the complete process. In addition, the 14 federal agencies have committed to conduct their review process concurrently. Ms. Platt reported that President Trump signed the $1.3 trillion omnibus spending package a few weeks ago to fund the government for fiscal year 2018. She explained that the bill contains full legislation and funding for all of the 12 annual Appropriations bills (totals 1.3 trillion). The legislation includes more than $21 billion for infrastructure projects across the country, including transportation, energy, water and cyber. She highlighted the transportation section of the bill which totals $8.7 billion and includes $3.5 billion for highways, $1 billion dedicated to Tiger Grants, $3.1 billion for railways and $1 billion for airports.

Ms. Platt also reported that beginning today, TANK is offering free rides on the Southbank Shuttle trolley to thank their current riders for their patience as they adjust to modified routes while the Roebling Suspension bridge is closed for repairs. Mr. Aiello explained that TANK’s Board convened the previous night and made the decision to offer the free rides effective today. In addition to thanking their existing riders, their hope is to gain some new ones in the process. He asked everyone to share their tweet and help spread the word. Ms. Platt highlighted some of OKI’s recent social media activity, including a Facebook post regarding the Licking River Greenway and Trails, a project from the City of Covington which received $134,000 in TA funding from OKI for this bike and pedestrian project, and a Twitter post about the Ohio Conference on Freight in securing two keynote speakers, which will be reported more about from Robyn Bancroft. She encouraged members to follow, like and share OKI’s social media posts.

E. Finance Officer's Report

Ms. Purcy Nance, staff, reported that the Finance Officer’s Report was distributed around the table. She explained that the report is on the financial statements for the period ended February 28, 2018 and includes current cash information. Ms. Nance referred members to page 2 for the current information. As of April 6, OKI had $504,145 in the PNC checking account, $17,452 in the HSA/FSA checking account and $584,882 in the STAR Ohio money market mutual fund. She 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 reported that last month, OKI received a letter from PNC Bank stating that the bank had automatically renewed OKI’s line of credit through June 10, 2019 under the same terms.

Ms. Nance stated that page 3 contains the balance sheet as of February 28. She reported that Cash and Investments are down 4% from this time last year. Receivables are up 9% from this time last year due to timing of routine invoices. Ms. Nance reported that as of February 28, there were $698,000 in receivables, $590,000 associated with January and February invoices and $108,000 outstanding from December and earlier. She further stated that payables are down 34%, or $28,000, from this time last year due to completion of the Establishment Survey.

Ms. Nance stated that Revenue information is located on page 4. She reported that as of February 28, OKI is 67% of the way through the budgeted year. Overall, revenues are at 62%, which is on budget. She noted the following items: Federal revenues are behind budget due to the timing of FTA project activities; State revenues are behind budget due to the timing of OEPA water projects and FIAM activities; Local revenues are ahead of budget due to the timing of county funding payments; Miscellaneous revenues are ahead of budget due to the timing of OKI’s Annual Meeting and interest on the Star Ohio account exceeding budget estimates. Ms. Nance stated that page 5 contains Expense information. She reported that Overall Expenses are at 60%, which is on budget. Ms. Nance noted the following items: Category 3, Travel,

6

Subsistence and Professional Development is behind budget due to timing of planned professional development activities and Board travel; Category 4, Printing, Marketing and Contractual is behind budget due to the timing of spring 2018 Traffic Counts, Duke benefits plan project activities, FTA project activities and FIAM model development activities offset by timing of the Boone County study. 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 $128,000 year to date. She explained that the two components of this increase are timing differences and year to date activities. The timing differences include a $130,000 increase due to timing of county funding payments and a $107,000 decrease due to application of negotiated fringe and indirect rates. The remaining $105,000 increase is associated with year-to-date operations and timing of active projects, resulting in a year to date fund balance of $1,247,000; of this amount, $485,000 is committed to active projects. There being no discussion, Mr. Reed moved that the Board of Directors accept and file the Finance Officer’s Report dated April 12, 2018. Mr. Portune seconded the motion; motion carried. ITEM #2: BUDGET COMMITTEE REPORT

Mr. Ken Reed, Treasurer, reported that the Budget Committee met prior to the Board meeting to begin the budget process for the development of the FY 2019 budget which will begin the first of July. The Budget Committee will see a more robust presentation next month and will request action of the Board in June. ITEM #3: OHIO CONFERENCE ON FREIGHT

Ms. Robyn Bancroft, staff, encouraged everyone to mark their calendar for August 15-17 for the Ohio Conference on Freight. She explained that they are working on an agenda and speakers that will reflect the latest trends with freight and technology. She reviewed five ways for Board members can participate: register, submit a presentation proposal, partner, publicize and volunteer. More information is available at ohiofreight.org and members can contact Lorrie Platt with questions. ITEM #4: ACCESS OHIO 2045 – STATEWIDE TRANSPORTATION PLAN

Mr. Scott Phinney, Administrator, Ohio Department of Transportation, Office of Statewide Planning and Research discussed Access Ohio 2045—Ohio’s long range transportation plan. He provided an overview of the plan, how it is being developed and how OKI Board members can get involved. He explained that the last plan was completed in 2014 and there is a need to prepare for the future. Drivers of change include: population, development, economy and technology. Mr. Phinney reported that seven workshops are scheduled throughout the state. Those interested in additional information can visit the website at Access.Ohio.gov or contact Mr. Phinney at accessohio.2045@dot.ohio.gov.

7

Mr. Portune requested that a workshop also be held in Cincinnati. Ms. Matacic questioned whether funding mechanisms will be included as part of the plan. Mr. Phinney explained that discussion regarding how to fix funding is beyond the scope of the plan. ITEM #5: INTERMODAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE REPORT

Mr. Andy Reser, staff, reported that the ICC met on Tuesday, April 10, 2018. Ashley Patrick and Brad Mason presented the Legislative and Technology report. Bernadette Dupont from Federal Highway Administration presented information on transportation performance measures. David Rutter demonstrated how to use OKI’s Environmental Viewer Tool to help complete OKI funding applications. Mr. Reser presented an Administrative Modification to the FY2018-2021 TIP as well as an update on development of the TIP website. He reported that the ICC recommended three resolutions for Board approval: OKI’s FY2019 Unified Planning Work Program, certification of OKI’s Transportation Planning Process, and authorization for a contract to install and maintain radar traffic counters on the Ohio River bridges.

A. Fiscal Year 2019 Unified Planning Work Program

Mr. Bob Koehler, staff, explained that an Executive Summary of the Fiscal Year 2019 work program was included with the meeting packet. It includes the scope and budget of planning activities that the agency will undertake this coming fiscal year. He explained that the work program is one of three pillars of OKI, along with the Plan and TIP. Mr. Koehler stated that the document is OKI’s instrument to communicate with our funding agencies. He highlighted a few of the activities to be undertaken in the next year. Mr. Portune commended staff on the tremendous amount of work involved with developing the work program and moved that the Board of Directors approve Resolution OKI 2018-11 approving the Fiscal Year 2019 Unified Planning Work Program. Mr. Reed seconded the motion; motion carried.

B. Certification of the Urban Transportation Planning Process

Mr. Koehler explained that each year, OKI is required to affirm that the regional transportation planning process is being carried out in conformance with all applicable federal regulations. He pointed out that every four years the federal agencies visit OKI to conduct an in-depth review. Mr. Humphrey moved that the Board of Directors approve Resolution OKI 2018-12 certifying that the urban transportation planning process is being carried out in conformance with all the applicable federal requirements. Mr. Bogard seconded the motion; motion carried.

C. Contract for Professional Services for the Ohio River Bridge Radar Traffic Data

Station Maintenance and Installation

Mr. Adam Evans, staff, explained that a project is nearing completion to put solar-powered radar

8

traffic counters on five of the seven Ohio River bridges. These radars will provide OKI with high-quality traffic volume and vehicle classification data. The data will be invaluable to the travel demand model. It is hoped that it will also show how an incident on one bridge affects traffic dispersion to the remaining bridges. He explained that the original intent was to install these units on all seven bridges, however, due to budget constraints, the Taylor-Southgate and Roebling bridges were eliminated. Mr. Evans explained that it is staff’s desire to retain the professional services of a qualified consultant to install the two remaining stations, as well as maintain, repair, and calibrate these stations on an as-needed basis. Mr. Welch questioned whether the radars will only have the capability of counting traffic, not speed. Mr. Evans clarified that speed will also be detected. Mr. Welch asked whether that information will be shared with local police departments. Mr. Evans explained that the data will be available to anyone interested, however, only data regarding average speeds will be available, not individual license plate information. Ms. Matacic moved that the Board of Directors approve Resolution OKI 2018-13 authorizing the Executive Director to execute a contract with a selected consultant(s) for maintenance of Ohio River bridge radar counters and purchase and installation of stations for the Roebling and Taylor Southgate bridges. Mr. Portune seconded the motion; motion carried. ITEM #6: CONSENT AGENDA

Mr. Humphrey moved that the Board of Directors approve the consent agenda as mailed. Mr. Welch seconded the motion; motion carried. There were no committee announcements. ITEM #7: OTHER BUSINESS

Mr. Policinski announced that the Second Annual Smart Cincy Summit will take place on April 26 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Union Hall in Over-the-Rhine. This summit is about Smart Mobility and Infrastructure. He encouraged members to attend. ITEM #8: ADJOURNMENT

Ms. Matacic moved to adjourn the Board of Directors. Mr. Bogard seconded the motion. The meeting adjourned at 11:28 a.m. _______________________________________ T.C. ROGERS, PRESIDENT ______________________________________ MARK R. POLICINSKI, SECRETARY klw

Washington, Northside, Oakley and Over-the-Rhine.

Avondale – Cincinnati Zoo personnel reported that as part of an effort to facilitate a faster exit from the zoo, the city of Cincinnati will restripe the exits resulting in two lanes exiting the zoo in both directions. Also, the zoo is discussing the possibility of a shared parking garage with the VA Hospital. A resident living on Gholson Avenue reported that residents on the street have asked the city’s DOTE to reduce the speed on the street from 35mph to 25mph to improve pedestrian safety.

Clifton – A representative from Gaslight Property presented a residential/retail concept currently being explored. If developed, the concept will include a 300-space underground parking garage. The goal of the development is to provide a genuinely walkable community that will allow community residents who want to remain in the Clifton community to age in place as they downsize and transition from a large home to a smaller space.

East Walnut Hills – Council President reported that the community has asked the city’s Department of Transportation & Engineering to allow on-street parking on both sides of Park Avenue and Francis Lane during non-peak hours. This will help provide additional parking for residents of The Edgecliff Private Residences due to an 18 month project of updating multiple levels of the building’s garages.

Mt Washington – Council President announced that the community is exploring the creation of an edible trail that will loop together the various community gardens in Mt. Washington and offer free fruit for the taking from the fruit trees that will be planted. This concept would encourage and support a walkable, healthier community. Community council attendees also heard from a 9-year old student who was recently featured in a WCPO-TV news story as she walked from her home on Sussex Avenue to the Sands Montessori Elementary School she attends on Corbly Avenue. She had invited Mayor Cranley, other city council members, city DOTE staff and Mt. Washington Community Council members to join her so that they could experience how dangerous her half mile walk to school is because there is no sidewalk on Sussex Avenue. The student thanked the community council for its support and reported that she will be meeting with Mayor Cranley soon for an update regarding her request for a sidewalk.

Northside – Personnel from the city of Cincinnati’s DOTE reviewed the status of the Northside Pedestrian, Bicycle & Transit Study. DOTE staff also reported, in response to a question from the floor, that the development of the community’s new Transit Center is currently at Step 1 of a 12-Step process – Land Acquisition – but that step is almost completed.

Oakley – A few residents expressed a need for STOP signs in the areas of Minot Avenue, 34th Avenue and Allston due to concerns about speeding vehicles. However, representatives from the community’s Oakley Master Plan Safety and Traffic Working Group reported that in response to a request from the city of Cincinnati for the community’s top (3) locations for a crosswalk they are recommending: #1 Crosswalk on Madison Road near Brazee; #2 Crosswalk on Madison Road near the business Flaggs USA and #3 Crosswalk on Wasson Road near Michigan Avenue. Attendees approved the recommendation. The Board announced an upcoming Town Meeting to review and discuss the traffic study recently completed by Bayer Becker to evaluate the impact of vehicular traffic relative to the development of a proposed sports stadium in the community. A question was raised from the floor as to why the study used internal modeling instead of OKI’s traffic modeling.

RESOLUTION 2018-17 FY18-21 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM/AMENDMENT #8

AMENDMENT #8 OF THE OKI FISCAL YEARS 2018-2021 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 one highway project and one transit project in Ohio, one highway project in Kentucky, and two highway projects in Indiana. The TIP is periodically amended, as needed, to reflect additions, deletions or revisions to programmed projects.

Prior to presentation to the Executive Committee, 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 Board of Directors.

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 2018-17. EXHIBIT: Resolution (OKI 2018-17) Concerning Amendment #8 of the OKI

Fiscal Years 2018-2021 Transportation Improvement Program.
