uh chair mitch often planning committee
members great to be here tonight

85
00:06:35,919 --> 00:06:43,280
so i'm here to present the work plan
for the congestion management program as

86
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:49,599
you may know
this the cmp is legislatively required

87
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,319
as a congestion management agency as the
congestion

88
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:54,720
management agency for contra costa we
are required to update it every two

89
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,400
years
uh this will be our 15th update since

90
00:06:57,039 --> 00:07:02,000
1991
and just for a little background i know

91
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:05,680
most of you heard this before but i'll
uh let the new member know that the

92
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:09,199
congestion management program was
developed back in 1991 as a statewide

93
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,880
program
um in response to uh kind of sprawl

94
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,240
development and
things like that going on around the

95
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,759
state and they used
measure c at the times growth management

96
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:24,639
program
as the template for the state's

97
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:28,000
congestion management program
uh so we there are definitely some

98
00:07:27,199 --> 00:07:32,319
overlaps
so what is required under the cmp is

99
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,960
that we
establish level of service standards for

100
00:07:34,479 --> 00:07:40,560
a county-wide roadway network
that includes all our state highways and

101
00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:46,160
principal arterials
that we establish performance measures

102
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:50,720
and metrics uh for the multimodal system
uh transportation system that we

103
00:07:48,639 --> 00:07:58,400
identify a capital improvement program
to maintain that transportation system

104
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:01,599
that we have a program to analyze the
impacts of land use

105
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:06,000
developments on the transportation
system that really is what our growth

106
00:08:03,759 --> 00:08:11,840
management program does
and then a travel demand element

107
00:08:09,039 --> 00:08:16,000
that promotes alternatives to the single
entrepreneur vehicle

108
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:20,160
so those are the main uh requirements of
the cmp

109
00:08:17,199 --> 00:08:23,280
as i mentioned the gmp fulfills many of
those requirements

110
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:27,840
and i'm going to hit on that a little
bit later for

111
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:31,759
an added uh something added this time
around

112
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:36,719
uh because of that uh the gmp fulfilling
all those requirements

113
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:40,479
so the cmp must uh demonstrate
consistency with the current adopted rtp

114
00:08:39,680 --> 00:08:44,320
uh
our last year's our last time we updated

115
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:50,480
in 2019
we have the same rtp adopted so

116
00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:55,440
we're referring back to the same rtp
mtc's guidelines

117
00:08:52,000 --> 00:09:00,320
for 2021 state that uh consistency
will be with that same older rtp

118
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:04,640
and they're advising for a limited
update of the cmps so

119
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:08,240
we are proposing a limited uh technical
update

120
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:14,720
of the cmp focusing on any changes since
2019 but our primary focus will be

121
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:19,680
the biannual monitoring monitoring we do
of the entire system including

122
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:24,080
collecting pedestrian and bicycle
accounts at 65

123
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:27,920
locations around the county in addition
to all the freeways

124
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:32,480
um the major addition that i was
alluding to a little bit earlier

125
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:36,399
is that for the first time we in the cmp
we will

126
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:40,000
examine the authority opting out of the
cmp process

127
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:44,959
um this is something that's been talked
about a while

128
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:49,600
um we feel like because the gmp
does satisfy most of the requirements

129
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:53,839
and we're really just doing kind of a
this is a formality um we do we do get

130
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:57,760
some good things out of it like the
monitoring

131
00:09:54,720 --> 00:10:02,880
um but we feel like
we may be better off just opting out so

132
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:07,200
as part of this update we will examine
that we are

133
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:11,040
working with mtc to make sure that
there are no funds lost in in that

134
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:16,079
opting out
uh when it comes to gas taxes things

135
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,079
like that

136
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:23,200
we look to our our peers up at uh
sonoma county who opted out several

137
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:28,480
years ago and have been
uh just fine um la county just opted out

138
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:31,200
uh this past year which is what really
got our attention we've been following

139
00:10:30,079 --> 00:10:35,360
that process
so we'll come back to you when uh we

140
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:41,200
have our draft cmp with a little more
information there but um our proposal is

141
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:45,920
to uh move ahead of the work plan do the
monitoring of the system

142
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:50,560
uh this spring so we can really uh get a
better look at the uh

143
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:53,680
the impacts of covid and
a schedule for the cmp update is in your

144
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,600
packet
and i can take any questions okay thank

145
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:01,600
you
um i'm almost home but i still can't see

146
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:07,360
hands raised
so uh i have it i can't karen

147
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:12,320
your recommendation matt is just to
start this

148
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:15,839
but not opt out at this time correct
start that's our work plan part of the

149
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,959
work plan is is
examining that opt-out and coming back

150
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,079
to you okay
it just has to start the plan i'll move

151
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:26,000
it
um i have a question does anybody else

152
00:11:23,839 --> 00:11:29,040
have a question
okay matt i want to make sure i

153
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:33,440
understand you're i understand you're
looking at it this year

154
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:39,760
um and and was the main reason that that
it's duplicative of other work we do

155
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:44,240
or is there any downside to us
opting out well it is it is duplicative

156
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:48,399
of the growth management program
um so that's our primary reason but the

157
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:52,160
only reason we haven't opted out is
because

158
00:11:48,959 --> 00:11:58,560
we're worried that losing
that cmp uh being part of the cmp will

159
00:11:56,639 --> 00:12:03,600
could affect us somehow so we will look
into that working with mtc

160
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:06,320
they've told us we won't initially so
we'll keep

161
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:09,040
investigating that if if there's a
chance we would lose funds somehow we

162
00:12:08,399 --> 00:12:13,040
would not
uh go forward with the object now but we

163
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:18,880
don't think that's going to be

my ipad just went blank so would

180
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:39,600
somebody please read the title of the
next

181
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:43,199
of the next item yes the next item is
for

182
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:46,720
this was action item 6b approval of
amendment number 2 to agreement number

183
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:51,839
428 with iteras
and this is also going to be presented

184
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:56,079
by matt kelly lovely thank you
thank you vice chair ask you thank you

185
00:13:53,360 --> 00:14:00,160
jackie um so this is related to the last
item

186
00:13:56,639 --> 00:14:04,079
um it's separate approval but related um
one of the required components of the

187
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:07,360
congestion management program
is the bi-annual monitoring of the

188
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:12,399
system
we do feel like this is one of the best

189
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:18,560
things we do get out of the cmp
and it is because we are able to

190
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:21,760
do a biannual kind of assessment of the
of the

191
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:27,120
uh cmp network which is all of our
freeways and most of our major arterials

192
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:30,160
we try and add value to this process by
collecting

193
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:35,440
those bike and pedestrian counts at all
the intersections in addition to the

194
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:40,880
vehicle so we've had a running total of
bike and ped counts since 2011.

195
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:47,199
um so that's been valuable um
this uh contract is with iteras

196
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:51,279
um they're a california firm who has
done our

197
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:55,120
cmp monitoring uh since 2015 so this
would be their fourth cycle

198
00:14:53,199 --> 00:14:59,600
uh the reason we thought we would be
good to bring them

199
00:14:56,399 --> 00:15:05,279
back on board this time um as opposed to
going out for a new contract is that

200
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:09,440
uh we're hoping uh this may be one of
the last

201
00:15:06,399 --> 00:15:12,639
uh normal cmp cycles where they're
requiring

202
00:15:10,399 --> 00:15:17,600
the same type of monitoring just because
it doesn't line up with the vmt

203
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:20,519
uh changes that the state has done so we
anytime we bring on a new consultant

204
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:26,240
they have to kind of
re-code the entire system into the

205
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:31,279
entire transportation network into their
monitoring system which

206
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:34,000
takes a fair amount of effort and budget
so we thought it would uh

207
00:15:32,639 --> 00:15:40,000
be more efficient just to keep by
terrace on for one more cycle

208
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:43,120
in addition to that they've uh they've
added a task on

209
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:47,680
no additional cost where they're going
to prepare a

210
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:51,519
dashboard which is kind of like right
now we're just getting a report every

211
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:55,199
two years from this big data source that
we have access to

212
00:15:53,199 --> 00:15:58,800
developing a dashboard would give us
real-time

213
00:15:56,399 --> 00:16:01,920
live access to the data that we were
normally just

214
00:15:59,839 --> 00:16:06,320
looking at every two years so this will
allow us to have a

215
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:10,240
website that anyone can look at staff
cities

216
00:16:07,199 --> 00:16:14,000
of general public that would um you know
show exactly what's going on in contra

217
00:16:11,839 --> 00:16:16,399
costa would allow you to look at archive
data

218
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:20,639
would allow you to do queries of the
transportation data

219
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:23,600
so we think um by keeping iterazon for
one more round we can you know not lose

220
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:27,360
any of the
momentum they've built up with us over

221
00:16:25,279 --> 00:16:31,360
the years and doing this fairly routine
monitoring

222
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:34,839
but also get some added value this time
around

223
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:39,680
so our proposal or our staff's
recommendation

224
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:46,959
is to uh amend uh for the second time
uh itara's contract to

225
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:53,199
do the biennial monitoring of the
cmp network

226
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:56,399
uh that's my presentation i can take any
questions

227
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:59,199
and i'm back and uh there's something
wrong with my virtual background but

228
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:05,439
that's okay
um so uh

229
00:17:02,639 --> 00:17:07,679
do we have any questions or comments for
matt

230
00:17:09,839 --> 00:17:17,120
