1
00:00:10,450 --> 00:00:17,001
I saw. A lot. Oh yeah there's

2
00:00:17,931 --> 00:00:23,511
a green light green one
gas prices. OK So we have

3
00:00:23,521 --> 00:00:25,211
a motion 2nd we have

4
00:00:25,221 --> 00:00:32,211
a 2nd I'll 2nd OK. Any discussion
and when the public want to

5
00:00:32,221 --> 00:00:33,261
make a comment OK we've

6
00:00:33,271 --> 00:00:39,363
a motion 2nd all in favor
say aye. Abstain OK

7
00:00:40,473 --> 00:00:46,503
now if if this board of directors
orientation what are we doing. Well I have

8
00:00:46,513 --> 00:00:50,903
a history for you and we do have a lot
of new members this year and I do have

9
00:00:50,913 --> 00:00:55,243
a paper document that I'm going to update
but I thought it would be good just to do

10
00:00:55,283 --> 00:01:01,693
a Powerpoint funner that way and I'll start
with the 1st slide I've been in humbled

11
00:01:01,703 --> 00:01:06,793
for 24 years it's the 1st time this year
went to the Benbow it was off so there's

12
00:01:06,803 --> 00:01:12,055
a picture right right on the
ground it was wonderful. OK.

13
00:01:13,780 --> 00:01:14,300
God does have

14
00:01:14,310 --> 00:01:17,540
a mission statement I'm not going to read
it for you I'm not going to be that kind

15
00:01:17,550 --> 00:01:19,330
of a presenter but I could not find

16
00:01:19,340 --> 00:01:24,230
a picture with all the things we do in
it so I found another pretty picture one

17
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:30,100
thing you'll notice that is not there is
any mention of housing so we all know that

18
00:01:30,110 --> 00:01:34,490
age card is responsible for the regional
housing needs allocation process and we

19
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:39,580
got. That duty because it was formed under

20
00:01:39,590 --> 00:01:44,620
a specific government code in 1068 but
we're not it's an unfunded mandate that

21
00:01:44,630 --> 00:01:47,980
doesn't mean it can't be in our mission
statement but this mission statement was

22
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:53,250
made before my time probably 20 years ago.
So this thought was kind of interesting

23
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:54,540
that housing isn't

24
00:01:54,550 --> 00:02:00,380
a part of what the mission is. The other
thing I wanted to mention is that the

25
00:02:00,390 --> 00:02:06,970
Senate bill 375 required large regional
transportation planning agencies were

26
00:02:06,980 --> 00:02:08,220
called M.P.O.

27
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:15,050
The. Metropolitan transportation planning
organizations they required them to do

28
00:02:15,060 --> 00:02:19,310
a special document with r.g.p that links
housing and transportation in order to

29
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,670
reduce greenhouse gas we don't we don't not
have that requirement right now but it

30
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:30,640
could happen in 2020 they'll be another
census and if the census turns out

31
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:35,410
that the area and not just the city limits
but the area around it where people are

32
00:02:35,420 --> 00:02:40,350
clustered if it's more than $50000.00
people then we will be in M.P.O.

33
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,780
At that time I think they give you 2
years to do that in 2010 are the greater

34
00:02:44,790 --> 00:02:50,540
Eureka area was 40 just over 45000 so I
don't know what happened in the last 10

35
00:02:50,550 --> 00:02:54,170
years but and there's also to
consider how they determine what

36
00:02:54,180 --> 00:02:57,840
a cluster is they talk about
jumping and hopping and they have

37
00:02:57,850 --> 00:03:03,640
a matrix on how they determine when to
stop so you know for instance you Rican

38
00:03:03,650 --> 00:03:04,880
arcade are considered

39
00:03:04,890 --> 00:03:08,900
a cluster because there's not enough
people in between but if they change their

40
00:03:08,910 --> 00:03:10,980
methodology that could make

41
00:03:10,990 --> 00:03:17,120
a big difference as well so that could
come and there's If the board had any wish

42
00:03:17,130 --> 00:03:20,720
to update the mission statement or anything
then that's something that we can bring

43
00:03:20,730 --> 00:03:27,524
up. And bring back to you. OK so this

44
00:03:27,534 --> 00:03:33,257
picture here does anybody guess
where did this. Well it was

45
00:03:33,267 --> 00:03:39,317
a 64 flood but that is Ferndale and you
can perfect timing. You can see for in

46
00:03:39,327 --> 00:03:45,077
bridge on the top left corner up there
so I chose that picture because.

47
00:03:46,927 --> 00:03:53,768
When it's called was formed in
100-7968. It really had limited

48
00:03:53,778 --> 00:03:58,738
duties. I mean how would you deal with
a big problem like that you can't

49
00:03:59,248 --> 00:04:03,838
a city can't fix that on their own you have
to work together and apparently at that

50
00:04:03,848 --> 00:04:09,598
time from what I read some state and
federal money were tied to having an

51
00:04:09,608 --> 00:04:13,918
organization a regional
organization so the G.P.A.

52
00:04:13,928 --> 00:04:16,678
Was very limited to what
they can do it was it was

53
00:04:16,688 --> 00:04:22,388
a planning organization that not
transportation so they they didn't have staff

54
00:04:22,398 --> 00:04:23,888
planners in

55
00:04:23,898 --> 00:04:28,518
a committee and the chair would come to
their meeting and they weren't paid they

56
00:04:28,528 --> 00:04:28,868
did have

57
00:04:28,878 --> 00:04:35,828
a secretary I'm not sure how that worked
but it was. A lot different then than how

58
00:04:35,838 --> 00:04:41,959
we are now so we did change

59
00:04:41,969 --> 00:04:44,339
a lot in the seventy's and that was due to

60
00:04:44,349 --> 00:04:50,359
a few things in 1071 the transportation
Development Act was passed and we have

61
00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:56,049
items on our agenda today for all of our
jurists most of our jurisdictions. And

62
00:04:56,059 --> 00:04:56,559
that is

63
00:04:57,009 --> 00:05:00,979
a quarter cent of the sales tax that goes
it was part of the local transportation

64
00:05:00,989 --> 00:05:05,599
Development Act We also had some
bill $69.00 that that formed

65
00:05:05,609 --> 00:05:07,989
a Caltrans so Caltrans was formed it was

66
00:05:07,999 --> 00:05:12,419
a bunch of other departments that they
formed in one department of transportation.

67
00:05:14,349 --> 00:05:19,859
And the state designated as the regional
transportation planning agency.

68
00:05:21,230 --> 00:05:24,570
And that decade in the $75.00
in $76.00 I read in the J.P.

69
00:05:24,580 --> 00:05:30,741
Is that it was the 1st time
cities had to pay dues and. Each

70
00:05:31,211 --> 00:05:34,001
city gave a certain
dollar amount and it was

71
00:05:34,011 --> 00:05:39,931
a very much then and the idea was that
it could match a state grant to fund

72
00:05:39,941 --> 00:05:46,321
a city administrator and a planner
and even had it in their G.P.A.

73
00:05:46,331 --> 00:05:48,571
That the city of Trinidad got
that plan or for half of

74
00:05:48,581 --> 00:05:52,511
a day. I think blue lake for 3 quarters of

75
00:05:52,521 --> 00:05:58,951
a day and they kind of doled out that like
that the city of Rio del offered. Office

76
00:05:58,991 --> 00:06:03,251
for these people and they paid the fringe
benefits and got paid back but it was

77
00:06:03,261 --> 00:06:10,022
very very limited in terms of
each cog. In it was kind of like

78
00:06:10,562 --> 00:06:12,242
well to show you my next fight in the O.C.

79
00:06:12,252 --> 00:06:18,862
What I'm talking about so I don't know
if you've seen the albino tree. So I was

80
00:06:18,872 --> 00:06:22,492
kind of like you know but you didn't make
its own chloroform so they didn't have we

81
00:06:22,502 --> 00:06:29,272
didn't have their own employees in the
eighty's. Some other big changes happened

82
00:06:29,312 --> 00:06:36,134
they. Stopped doing that the
shares or the do and they they

83
00:06:36,144 --> 00:06:42,124
were receiving state funding they actually
hired them their own employees. They

84
00:06:42,664 --> 00:06:46,474
were receiving money so they
named the county auditor as

85
00:06:46,484 --> 00:06:52,484
a treasured or treasure and they even
accepted gifts from the public so. It was

86
00:06:52,494 --> 00:06:58,966
a different time as we are now. After that
happened it's you know it's kind of like

87
00:06:58,976 --> 00:07:03,396
the tree got its own roots and could live
on its own but before that time each cog

88
00:07:03,406 --> 00:07:05,656
was. Just you know

89
00:07:05,756 --> 00:07:12,661
a very small part of each
city in the county. In 1903

90
00:07:12,871 --> 00:07:16,861
we were designated each congress days ignited
as the service authority for freeway

91
00:07:16,871 --> 00:07:17,811
emergencies for

92
00:07:17,821 --> 00:07:24,131
a complex program and the next big
change to the Joint Powers agreement was

93
00:07:24,301 --> 00:07:24,871
adding

94
00:07:25,321 --> 00:07:31,341
a few bullet points actually in it that
talked about more of the duties that had

95
00:07:31,351 --> 00:07:36,191
taken on from the past because the duties
that were listed were way back from 78

96
00:07:36,201 --> 00:07:42,384
they had never really been added to. The
other big thing was that each card was

97
00:07:42,914 --> 00:07:43,614
identified as

98
00:07:43,624 --> 00:07:48,524
a public entity separate and apart from its
individual members and from what I read

99
00:07:48,534 --> 00:07:53,344
in our in our files and that was so that
none of the cities or the county would be

100
00:07:53,354 --> 00:08:00,246
liable for anything so I thought you'd
like you would all like to know that So

101
00:08:00,256 --> 00:08:02,516
today we did have

102
00:08:02,526 --> 00:08:08,486
a few amendments in $2161.00 is to clarify
that your counsel in the Board of

103
00:08:08,496 --> 00:08:14,896
Supervisors can point at an alternate
that has the same powers as the primary

104
00:08:15,696 --> 00:08:16,696
we did break away

105
00:08:16,706 --> 00:08:20,616
a little bit from the county in terms of
their auditing department so the state law

106
00:08:20,686 --> 00:08:27,586
requires our transportation development
funds to go there that we. Named our

107
00:08:27,876 --> 00:08:32,676
fiscal officer as the Treasurer and we have
an auditor that comes every year you've

108
00:08:32,716 --> 00:08:37,496
met Keith he was here and make sure that
our audits are in order so that was there

109
00:08:37,506 --> 00:08:43,048
was a big change. And the other thing
that we did when we attempted to be

110
00:08:43,058 --> 00:08:49,028
a self-help County in 2016 with measure
you. The Board of Supervisors David

111
00:08:49,098 --> 00:08:54,208
designated each card as the local transportation
authority and with that there was

112
00:08:54,558 --> 00:09:00,968
the transaction and use of youth in use
authority what's interesting now what's

113
00:09:00,978 --> 00:09:07,218
going on is there is assembly Assembly
Bill 1413 it will be heard in the Senate

114
00:09:07,228 --> 00:09:13,448
Transportation Committee on June 25th and
Governor governance and finance on July

115
00:09:13,458 --> 00:09:18,838
8th and that I think I spoke about
before is where the county can carve out

116
00:09:18,848 --> 00:09:23,168
a certain area to be self-help so I know
the city of Eureka was very successful

117
00:09:23,178 --> 00:09:30,011
last year not enough but very close city
of R K That might be interested. If this

118
00:09:30,021 --> 00:09:35,731
bill goes through you wouldn't have to move
forward with the whole county sales tax

119
00:09:35,771 --> 00:09:36,941
it could only be for and

120
00:09:36,981 --> 00:09:43,831
a specific area you carve out only the
people living in the area or the taxes incur

121
00:09:44,231 --> 00:09:48,501
in that area and only development can go
in that area and the money can only be

122
00:09:48,511 --> 00:09:53,081
used in that area so you can't use it
anywhere else so that would if this does go

123
00:09:53,091 --> 00:09:55,201
through and it looks like
it might then that would be

124
00:09:55,211 --> 00:10:00,981
a good conversations for the jurisdictions
it does have to be continuous though so

125
00:10:01,711 --> 00:10:06,521
the further you go out the less
votes you get and fortunately.

126
00:10:10,831 --> 00:10:15,861
So our council of government duties I'm
calling them is basically our Rina duties

127
00:10:15,871 --> 00:10:20,661
and we've just been through this what I
just wanted to reemphasize this happens

128
00:10:20,671 --> 00:10:26,491
every 8 years and the process is the
California Department of Housing and Community

129
00:10:26,501 --> 00:10:32,901
Development gives us our our numbers on
expected housing in that 8 year period.

130
00:10:34,361 --> 00:10:39,811
By different income levels and it's called
works with local staff we work at the

131
00:10:39,821 --> 00:10:42,741
public and you ultimately develop

132
00:10:42,751 --> 00:10:49,511
a methodology on how to split. And
then once that's approved. Housing

133
00:10:49,521 --> 00:10:55,781
elements are do so for all of our cities
in the county the deadline is August 31st

134
00:10:56,301 --> 00:11:01,361
and the City of Fortuna and the county
have already submitted theirs so the state

135
00:11:01,371 --> 00:11:02,521
is reviewing there's

136
00:11:02,601 --> 00:11:09,571
a. Couple months early we do have 3 cities
in the county that have been. Out of

137
00:11:09,581 --> 00:11:14,461
compliance with housing elements not
just this new cycle but in the past so

138
00:11:15,161 --> 00:11:19,731
hopefully funding is going to be
coming through to help them get

139
00:11:19,741 --> 00:11:26,341
a get caught up. QUESTION He said
every 8 years and we just did it

140
00:11:26,921 --> 00:11:32,161
last year but then that was supposed to
last for 5 years or so and it's what

141
00:11:32,171 --> 00:11:38,611
happened when will it show up again in I
think it's 2025 so at the last cycle it

142
00:11:38,621 --> 00:11:45,001
was it was like 5.6 years cog elected to
increase the frequency of our regional

143
00:11:45,011 --> 00:11:49,851
transportation plan from 5 to 4 and because
we did that the state allows it to go

144
00:11:49,861 --> 00:11:55,611
to an 8 year housing element and that was
something that every planning staff.

145
00:11:57,001 --> 00:12:01,521
In the county was was
happy about. It does cost

146
00:12:01,531 --> 00:12:05,791
a little more because we have to update
you know more frequently but I think it's

147
00:12:06,551 --> 00:12:13,031
a good compromise. Is to lead one of the
other complaints and cities. It's what

148
00:12:13,721 --> 00:12:17,961
he has turned out as well and I'm not going
to name oh it's going to be one report

149
00:12:17,961 --> 00:12:24,851
. Yes and blue like did
submit in February but they

150
00:12:24,861 --> 00:12:25,011
got

151
00:12:25,021 --> 00:12:33,742
a long list of. Long to do list so. That

152
00:12:33,752 --> 00:12:39,372
I get the next one. So I'm not going to
read through every one of these but we do

153
00:12:39,382 --> 00:12:39,512
have

154
00:12:39,522 --> 00:12:46,142
a lot of requirements and duties and I would
just put them in order of how often we

155
00:12:46,142 --> 00:12:51,493
. We have to update plans so we have the
transit development plan that was updated

156
00:12:51,893 --> 00:12:52,283
I think

157
00:12:52,893 --> 00:12:58,863
a year ago. To help our transit agencies
look forward on how to make improvements

158
00:12:58,873 --> 00:13:00,673
in the region we do

159
00:13:00,683 --> 00:13:05,573
a regional bicycle plan that at one
time was ever acquirement to get the

160
00:13:05,583 --> 00:13:11,013
predecessor of what we call the active
transportation funds now that requirement is

161
00:13:11,023 --> 00:13:15,673
not. Is not there anymore
but our bicycle plan is

162
00:13:16,073 --> 00:13:20,743
a really good document it will probably
morphed into an active transportation plan

163
00:13:20,753 --> 00:13:22,743
in the future and that could be

164
00:13:22,753 --> 00:13:26,443
a requirement in the future to get
funding but they don't really have the

165
00:13:26,453 --> 00:13:31,183
guidelines developed for that some agencies
do already have active transportation

166
00:13:31,193 --> 00:13:36,983
plans we incorporate pedestrian but we
haven't moved to that next step yet it will

167
00:13:36,993 --> 00:13:37,103
be

168
00:13:37,113 --> 00:13:42,343
a big one but we do update it every year
and we will be giving the board and update

169
00:13:42,353 --> 00:13:48,071
on the progress made we do that on
an annual basis as well. This is

170
00:13:48,081 --> 00:13:52,361
a long one of the According to public
transit human services transportation plan

171
00:13:52,681 --> 00:13:52,881
that's

172
00:13:52,891 --> 00:13:56,631
a requirement from the federal government
the federal government gives the state

173
00:13:56,641 --> 00:14:02,911
Caltrans funding and they require that the
that this these plans are developed so

174
00:14:02,921 --> 00:14:08,461
it has to be developed every 5 years and
it does look at transportation needs of

175
00:14:08,471 --> 00:14:14,861
seniors and individuals with disabilities
our last update was $28.00 teams so it

176
00:14:14,871 --> 00:14:18,771
was right around the corner it will
be coming to you again our regional

177
00:14:18,781 --> 00:14:23,301
transportation plan we update every 4
years and if you're not aware it's

178
00:14:23,311 --> 00:14:25,651
a 20 year vision of
transportation in the region.

179
00:14:30,142 --> 00:14:34,112
We do a pavement management program
on behalf of all the cities it's not

180
00:14:34,122 --> 00:14:38,992
a requirement for age but for your cities
to get federal funding you have to check

181
00:14:39,002 --> 00:14:41,962
a box that says you have a private
management plan and it is

182
00:14:41,972 --> 00:14:47,472
a very helpful document. Wes where we get
our ratings for how our votes are the

183
00:14:47,482 --> 00:14:54,482
percentages if they're about to fail
and we also pay for the software

184
00:14:54,542 --> 00:15:00,312
for our 4 largest cities and we have one
software package paid for the smaller

185
00:15:00,322 --> 00:15:06,024
cities your public works departments
are the ones using these we do

186
00:15:06,034 --> 00:15:10,874
a public participation plan in conjunction
with our title 6 report I'm not sure if

187
00:15:10,884 --> 00:15:17,186
you're all aware of that I think every
city has to have one as well. And are

188
00:15:17,226 --> 00:15:24,046
limited in English proficiency plan we
look at. The census data and see if

189
00:15:24,056 --> 00:15:29,806
we need to produce documents and have
information in different languages so as of

190
00:15:29,816 --> 00:15:34,706
the last one we do have things in Spanish
available every year we look to see if

191
00:15:34,716 --> 00:15:34,906
there's

192
00:15:34,916 --> 00:15:41,961
a new new need in the region
or every 3 years. We pay

193
00:15:41,971 --> 00:15:43,481
for performance audits this is

194
00:15:43,491 --> 00:15:46,921
a requirement from the transportation
Development Act and it looks at all of

195
00:15:47,531 --> 00:15:53,491
functions and in addition to that the
operators and. Not only see how they

196
00:15:53,501 --> 00:15:58,591
performed in the past but give us
recommendations for the future. Putting in our.

197
00:15:59,751 --> 00:16:03,771
By the end of this month and
start that process pretty soon.

198
00:16:06,942 --> 00:16:11,332
Our regional transportation improvement
program is every 2 years we will be doing

199
00:16:11,342 --> 00:16:17,372
that this year every year local governments
need to submit their program of

200
00:16:17,382 --> 00:16:22,401
projects by December 15th. This is

201
00:16:22,411 --> 00:16:28,791
a part of what we call the state transportation
improvement program the stip to our

202
00:16:28,801 --> 00:16:34,281
tip is 75 percent of the funds that are in
local control 25 percent are in what we

203
00:16:34,291 --> 00:16:39,721
call the into regional transportation
improvement plan. And Caltrans controls that

204
00:16:40,281 --> 00:16:46,941
so we we have partnered with the one on
one corridor plan projects Jeff this year

205
00:16:47,191 --> 00:16:52,401
he's on the agenda later he'll be talking
about that project as well. But this is

206
00:16:52,411 --> 00:16:58,031
the most amount of money that comes to the
region it differs every year I will find

207
00:16:58,041 --> 00:17:00,841
out next Tuesday what our
target is the state gives us

208
00:17:00,851 --> 00:17:05,841
a target last year the target was
around 7 $1000000.00 And that's kind of

209
00:17:05,851 --> 00:17:08,841
a minimum target and then
they give you a 2nd target

210
00:17:08,851 --> 00:17:14,961
a maximum target. Which I think last last
2 years it was $10000000.00 And we asked

211
00:17:14,971 --> 00:17:18,711
for all the money and we did get all of
the money and the reason we got all the

212
00:17:18,721 --> 00:17:22,781
money is that not every region asked
for all their funds they're saving for

213
00:17:22,791 --> 00:17:27,161
a big project so we got really lucky but
we're also in the hole about $3000000.00

214
00:17:27,551 --> 00:17:31,521
So we will find out I find out next Tuesday
the estimate will come out and then the

215
00:17:31,691 --> 00:17:36,521
California Transportation Commission will
do their final estimate at their August

216
00:17:36,531 --> 00:17:37,501
meeting so they'll be

217
00:17:37,511 --> 00:17:43,641
a few months. Will start working with the
technical advisory committee and we'll

218
00:17:43,651 --> 00:17:48,411
have discussions with Caltrans will
start them today to talk about what our

219
00:17:48,461 --> 00:17:54,083
priority needs are for that. Overall work
program you're think you're all familiar

220
00:17:54,093 --> 00:17:58,643
with that it really documents all of our
activities all the projects we're working

221
00:17:58,653 --> 00:18:04,543
on. Not only are required projects but
when there's extra funding we either do

222
00:18:05,053 --> 00:18:08,133
a planning project ourselves
or contract out or we do

223
00:18:08,143 --> 00:18:12,923
a call for projects for your cities to do
planning projects where we can pass the

224
00:18:12,933 --> 00:18:19,260
funds to them. Physical and compliance
audits we have those every year we just had

225
00:18:19,270 --> 00:18:23,130
our presentation from our auditor I think
at the last meeting at the meeting before

226
00:18:24,062 --> 00:18:30,845
that's very standard and then.
I just thought I'd quickly go

227
00:18:30,855 --> 00:18:35,255
through the list of all the funding that
comes through each cogged I think this is

228
00:18:35,265 --> 00:18:40,585
it but. What I don't have are like planning
grants and things like that there's

229
00:18:40,595 --> 00:18:45,105
just the list for planning grants are not
plan it just grants in general to be very

230
00:18:45,115 --> 00:18:48,205
long so I'll start with the local
transportation fund that's

231
00:18:48,255 --> 00:18:51,125
a part of the transportation
Development Act funding it's

232
00:18:51,135 --> 00:18:57,836
a quarter cent sales tax it comes into the
region I'm estimating for last year is

233
00:18:57,846 --> 00:19:03,489
about $5200000.00. There are priorities
it's called Take spending off the top for

234
00:19:03,499 --> 00:19:09,189
planning in the ministration the county
auditor across the street get some funds we

235
00:19:09,199 --> 00:19:14,039
take 2 percent of the remaining out
every time the money comes in for

236
00:19:14,049 --> 00:19:18,579
a bike and pet projects and then the rest
is distributed to all the cities in the

237
00:19:18,589 --> 00:19:23,669
county by population and that's you cannot
change the population rule that's by law

238
00:19:23,669 --> 00:19:30,220
. I just mentioned the 2 percent Baikal
bicycle and pedestrian fund this board

239
00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:36,230
did approve allocation. I believe it was
the last meeting I think everything's the

240
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:37,700
last meeting but we do

241
00:19:37,710 --> 00:19:44,620
a call for projects. And I
can remember. One of the

242
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,200
awarded projects was

243
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:53,050
a. Safety signal in blue
lake. Trinidad as well

244
00:19:53,870 --> 00:20:00,400
and. The city of Arcadia asked to extend
their ask for funds to extend their

245
00:20:00,410 --> 00:20:05,670
planning process so they can look outside
of their city limits for the NE and Mary

246
00:20:06,250 --> 00:20:10,390
extension project into the
county's area just to make it

247
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:16,310
a complete projects so. You know the funding
they had didn't extend very far didn't

248
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:21,030
extend outside their city limits that the
2 percent funding will let them do that

249
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,551
so there was

250
00:20:22,841 --> 00:20:27,971
a full support of the state transit
Assistance Fund it's also the 2nd part of the

251
00:20:28,011 --> 00:20:32,811
local trip the transportation Development
Act It's derived from sales tax on diesel

252
00:20:32,821 --> 00:20:35,931
fuel all that goes to our
transit agencies so we do

253
00:20:35,941 --> 00:20:37,831
a call for projects and it comes to you in

254
00:20:37,841 --> 00:20:42,871
a resolution. State of good
repair is created out of

255
00:20:42,911 --> 00:20:49,821
a Senate bill one the gas tax and it too
goes to our transit operators. And it

256
00:20:49,831 --> 00:20:55,091
is restricted to their current system so
they can't they can't use that money to

257
00:20:55,101 --> 00:21:02,052
expand out or to go new places it's to.
Keep your system in good repair the low

258
00:21:02,062 --> 00:21:08,892
carbon transit operation program. That
is for transit operators again and

259
00:21:08,932 --> 00:21:14,512
the guidelines on that are specific to
reducing greenhouse gas they will in that

260
00:21:14,522 --> 00:21:18,842
program let you try new areas to see if
you can get people out of their cars so

261
00:21:19,062 --> 00:21:24,371
that it does allow an expansion of
service. There is the Federal Transit

262
00:21:24,381 --> 00:21:29,671
Administration $5311.00 formula grants for
rural areas we just had approvals for

263
00:21:29,681 --> 00:21:34,921
that and that is for our transit operators
and they're restricting it to operations

264
00:21:34,931 --> 00:21:36,951
only so years ago they would

265
00:21:37,331 --> 00:21:40,221
a lot of our transit operators
were used to these funds to buy

266
00:21:40,231 --> 00:21:45,341
a bus and now it's restricted to operation
so they're looking for other areas and

267
00:21:45,351 --> 00:21:49,532
grant opportunities to
purchase vehicles the F.D.A.

268
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:51,742
$5311.00 at program is also

269
00:21:51,752 --> 00:21:57,992
a federal program and it also has specific
guidelines to connect cities and the

270
00:21:58,392 --> 00:22:02,762
main requirement there is you have to
connect to it one urban area to another and

271
00:22:03,032 --> 00:22:08,782
it has to be at least 15 miles so in our
area the humble Transit Authority gets

272
00:22:08,792 --> 00:22:14,182
funding for the Will Creek system and the
Southern humbled system and I believe

273
00:22:14,192 --> 00:22:20,724
Greyhound applied again this year so those
are the 3 in our region the regional

274
00:22:20,734 --> 00:22:25,454
surface transportation program those
start as federal funds they go through

275
00:22:25,464 --> 00:22:31,394
Caltrans and Caltrans to the gracious
enough to swap those funds for state which

276
00:22:31,704 --> 00:22:33,204
makes all of your planet

277
00:22:33,214 --> 00:22:39,774
a public works staff happy because as many
strings tight tied to it we will be we

278
00:22:39,784 --> 00:22:42,014
got our dollar amount
and we're waiting for

279
00:22:42,024 --> 00:22:46,294
a contract from Caltrans So that will be
coming to you hopefully next month if not

280
00:22:46,334 --> 00:22:51,406
in them the month before. I'd already
spoke about the regional transportation

281
00:22:51,416 --> 00:22:55,206
improvement program and the
last is a new one there is

282
00:22:55,216 --> 00:23:01,676
a new one that's the highway infrastructure
program. The tatt technical advisory

283
00:23:01,686 --> 00:23:07,156
committee has already discussed the dollar
amount is about $800000.00 and we will

284
00:23:07,166 --> 00:23:13,158
be moving forward a recommendation to you
hopefully next month but that was just

285
00:23:13,168 --> 00:23:20,031
a surprise that there's new funding
out there. Now it does let you use it

286
00:23:20,041 --> 00:23:22,011
on streets and roads if there are

287
00:23:22,021 --> 00:23:28,903
a certain level so not
necessarily has to be. An

288
00:23:28,913 --> 00:23:35,293
arterial or. A collector
you think you might. Be.

289
00:23:37,063 --> 00:23:42,973
So I would fund the structure I think
if I think it's coming from the federal

290
00:23:43,013 --> 00:23:46,715
government it is because
it has to get into

291
00:23:46,725 --> 00:23:53,646
a federal program right so the 2
projects that can't talk we're looking

292
00:23:53,656 --> 00:24:00,516
at were the old Arcadia road project so the
older kind of road projects project was

293
00:24:00,526 --> 00:24:06,456
awarded funding in our chip in 2017 but
not all the money they needed they wanted

294
00:24:06,466 --> 00:24:11,296
a little bit more for some bike and pet
projects the things they applied for active

295
00:24:11,306 --> 00:24:15,326
transportation program and were not
successful the problem is that these funds

296
00:24:15,416 --> 00:24:16,256
cannot be used for

297
00:24:16,266 --> 00:24:21,226
a bicycle in pedestrian uses So if that's
what's going to move forward I'll be

298
00:24:21,236 --> 00:24:26,766
working with the California Transportation
Commission to see if we can still add

299
00:24:27,146 --> 00:24:30,516
that money to that project it'll just be
that that money is not paying for the bike

300
00:24:30,526 --> 00:24:33,996
impaired it's paying for the road and I'm
sure that will be fine and the other

301
00:24:34,006 --> 00:24:38,976
project was the Fortuna project on Redwood
So that was the same story it was funded

302
00:24:38,986 --> 00:24:43,748
in the in our our tip.
In the step there was

303
00:24:43,788 --> 00:24:48,338
a short fall for active transportation
they applied and were not successful so

304
00:24:48,348 --> 00:24:54,718
we're hoping we could. You know make those
projects whole. So I'm not sure what the

305
00:24:54,728 --> 00:24:56,928
final decision is going
to be yet but it will be

306
00:24:56,938 --> 00:25:00,088
a recommendation to you.
And for your board.

307
00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:08,050
I say these are our member
agencies we will have

308
00:25:08,060 --> 00:25:14,180
a report from complete member AVIs on
his board meeting with the California

309
00:25:15,190 --> 00:25:19,960
so she shouldn't of councils of governments
I also attend the world can't really

310
00:25:20,050 --> 00:25:24,530
any task force meetings we meet and
actually we report to the California

311
00:25:24,540 --> 00:25:29,730
Transportation Commission we review
everything that's coming through the works in

312
00:25:29,740 --> 00:25:35,490
terms. In Sacramento and have
a voice for rural areas it's

313
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:42,080
a very very good organization and I
think well respected in the California

314
00:25:42,090 --> 00:25:46,330
Transportation Commission there's also the
North State super region and that was

315
00:25:46,340 --> 00:25:53,160
formed probably 67 years ago that's the
most northern 16 counties and it's

316
00:25:53,170 --> 00:25:57,590
regional transportation exec's the secular
group directors getting together to make

317
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,200
sure that we're on the
same page if there is

318
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,230
a big project. Or someone's going to get

319
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:08,760
a grant we can all get together and support
that one project in the bill grants or

320
00:26:08,770 --> 00:26:15,311
the TIGER grants or things like that but
it's just good to have. A northern really

321
00:26:15,321 --> 00:26:22,312
Northern California group.
And that's it and I

322
00:26:22,322 --> 00:26:26,352
can certainly answer any questions and if
there's ideas for any changes then that's

323
00:26:26,362 --> 00:26:31,403
something that you can direct
me to work on. Thank you.

324
00:26:38,564 --> 00:26:44,784
Thank you. Most of these are councils of
government and we are an association of

325
00:26:44,864 --> 00:26:51,754
government you know that. In
1068 if it were. Just most

326
00:26:51,764 --> 00:26:55,674
people did Council of Governments but
we're all under that same government code

327
00:26:55,764 --> 00:27:01,644
6550 Yeah Are there any others
like us now we're special.

328
00:27:08,111 --> 00:27:14,201
And you know on the board of thoughts
comments anywhere in the public and they want

329
00:27:14,211 --> 00:27:16,041

330
00:27:16,041 --> 00:27:22,706

in times past and I think you came up

2nd Trinidad. Resolution it
should say ceiling it's just been

355
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,200
misspelled course now I can't find it.

356
00:29:31,915 --> 00:29:38,136
In the staff report or yeah it was
just in the figures here I have it

357
00:29:38,766 --> 00:29:42,977
it's in the 2nd Trinidad. I believe it's

358
00:29:42,987 --> 00:29:49,057
a typo on the 2nd Trinidad project it
says street maintenance I think that's

359
00:29:49,067 --> 00:29:54,827
opposed to say sealing etc If you can
find that in your package to me.

360
00:29:58,307 --> 00:30:04,517
OK Do the ocean to approve the Consent
Calendar as amended I'll make that was.

361

OK We have

362
00:30:08,051 --> 00:30:14,011
a motion in the 2nd and one of the public
comments about the said calendar. OK I

363
00:30:14,021 --> 00:30:20,141
guess we don't really do that but I do
know we do we do we. I do have one comment

364
00:30:20,151 --> 00:30:27,001
though we did have an audit finding this
year and that was to get. Jurisdictions to

365
00:30:27,011 --> 00:30:29,691
turn their claims in early and
I just have to say Phil did

366
00:30:29,701 --> 00:30:32,351
a great job. That is why we have

367
00:30:32,361 --> 00:30:39,251
a long list Yeah I noticed some were
2819 Some were 2120 is like it's some

368
00:30:39,561 --> 00:30:42,771
sort of well it's good to have it at the
beginning of the year so that everything's

369
00:30:42,781 --> 00:30:48,561
ready to go instead of you know sometimes
we don't get them and sometimes we get

370
00:30:48,571 --> 00:30:54,312
them in June for that year I don't know how
they spend the money but they do. OK We

371
00:30:54,322 --> 00:30:54,452
have

372
00:30:54,462 --> 00:31:01,414
a motion 2nd all those in favor
say aye aye aye. Very. We are on

373
00:31:01,424 --> 00:31:04,164
to 18 we are reconvening as the H.

374
00:31:04,174 --> 00:31:05,874
Called board so I'm looking for

375
00:31:05,884 --> 00:31:12,236
a motion to approve the pact
with the nations also move 2nd

376
00:31:12,746 --> 00:31:13,346

378
00:31:19,540 --> 00:31:25,560
called staff and pack member reports and
8 we have the California Association of

379
00:31:25,570 --> 00:31:31,180
councils governments board of directors
meeting. In this directory this here will

380
00:31:31,190 --> 00:31:37,960
provide the report of the
meeting. Thank you. This was the

381
00:31:37,970 --> 00:31:43,173
2nd board meeting that I had a chance
to attend told in Sacramento it's

382
00:31:43,183 --> 00:31:47,274
a very large board. So they have to have

383
00:31:47,284 --> 00:31:52,774
a large room in which to to find that so
we ended up in the California Museum which

384
00:31:52,784 --> 00:31:59,716
was pretty interesting
in its own right. The

385
00:31:59,726 --> 00:32:04,036
Council of. California Association
of councils government is

386
00:32:04,656 --> 00:32:11,158
a really unique organization. It represents
all of the different locals cogs.

387
00:32:12,881 --> 00:32:19,573
And also ties itself closely with both
the League of California cities and the

388
00:32:19,613 --> 00:32:26,033
California so Cieszyn counties
and we were. Treated by.

389
00:32:27,403 --> 00:32:32,503
Presentations by the executive directors
from both of the sort of musicians and

390
00:32:32,513 --> 00:32:37,773
they stressed. Their value
working with alcohol on

391
00:32:37,783 --> 00:32:41,403
a number of issues. Because
they find that it represents

392
00:32:41,413 --> 00:32:46,355
a broad swatch of California
governments representing

393
00:32:46,365 --> 00:32:48,985
a large population base and they get

394
00:32:48,995 --> 00:32:53,215
a lot more movement when they're working
with the legislature and with the governor

395
00:32:54,217 --> 00:32:57,167
we were also treated
with a presentation by

396
00:32:57,357 --> 00:33:04,310
a new economic. Appointee to
Governor newsman's office to work on

397
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:10,520
housing issues and housing was in fact the
primary topic of the meeting there were

398
00:33:10,530 --> 00:33:16,361
a number of things that we do we looked
at but primarily there was one item that

399
00:33:16,371 --> 00:33:22,831
Marcella had actually. Expressed interest
in hearing more about. Which was the

400
00:33:23,551 --> 00:33:30,423
trailer bill and so I headed off
all enthusiastic expecting to

401
00:33:30,433 --> 00:33:37,408
find out about tiny houses and travel
trailers and of the things that could

402
00:33:37,418 --> 00:33:42,768
be put into backyards but it
turned out not to be trailers

403
00:33:45,169 --> 00:33:51,889
trailer is different term. It just sort of
trails along behind the governor's whim

404
00:33:52,822 --> 00:33:56,852
and it's called a traitor bill and we
call it that instead of calling it a B.

405
00:33:56,862 --> 00:34:03,355
Arrest be something that's just a name
but what is the shorthand is it it's

406
00:34:03,365 --> 00:34:08,916
a large pot of money and it's coming to
California communities and there will be

407
00:34:08,926 --> 00:34:15,437
money that is spent directly or some sent
directly to local communities an equal

408
00:34:15,447 --> 00:34:21,700
amount of money that's been sent for
redistribution to the through the coffee so we

409
00:34:21,710 --> 00:34:22,000
will get

410
00:34:22,010 --> 00:34:27,623
a package of money available. For the
figures that they were looking at is about

411
00:34:27,663 --> 00:34:34,393
$840000.00. I mean happily

412
00:34:34,493 --> 00:34:40,393
Marcel has been working in league with with
the executive director from Cal clogged

413
00:34:40,403 --> 00:34:46,394
and the other member executive directors
and she's more versed in the details of

414
00:34:46,404 --> 00:34:50,927
what actually is happening than I am I.
AM So if you have any specific questions

415
00:34:50,937 --> 00:34:57,648
about that she'll be available
to to to respond to it we only

416
00:34:57,658 --> 00:34:59,158
meet 3 times

417
00:34:59,168 --> 00:35:07,865
a year. Once November which is coming up
and then there is an annual. Conference

418
00:35:08,225 --> 00:35:14,937
that's held in the spring and then he
made me so I'll be able to report back

419
00:35:14,947 --> 00:35:16,107
again to

420
00:35:16,117 --> 00:35:20,507
a few items on the agenda but they're
usually pretty big picture items and things

421
00:35:20,627 --> 00:35:25,657
have to filter down through the through
several filters before they reach our level

422
00:35:25,667 --> 00:35:31,620
here. Want to give me

423
00:35:31,630 --> 00:35:38,630
a quick synopsis of the well I haven't seen
the details so that's the hard part and

424
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,410
from what I hear the story changes

425
00:35:40,420 --> 00:35:47,290
a lot so at one point for the smaller
cogs they were going to instead of giving

426
00:35:47,300 --> 00:35:52,230
into the CAGR give it directly to the
cities or let the cities decide if they

427
00:35:52,240 --> 00:35:55,770
wanted to take it directly and then the
leftovers would come to the Coggan we could

428
00:35:55,780 --> 00:36:01,330
help the small cities and I just don't
know what is going to happen at the end I.

429
00:36:03,150 --> 00:36:07,560
Don't have access to the document itself
so I think the executive director might be

430
00:36:07,750 --> 00:36:12,100
sitting in meetings. That's one thing
I'll have to look for to see if there's

431
00:36:12,110 --> 00:36:18,970
drafts out there but it changes so much.
In terms of the throbber purpose is to

432
00:36:18,980 --> 00:36:24,950
assist with I was it is yes so I think
every city in the county is going to get

433
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:31,560
120000 they say directly and that's to help.
Help people get their housing elements

434
00:36:31,570 --> 00:36:37,110
done so I'm hoping that they don't disqualify
disqualify the cities that don't have

435
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,210
a current housing element I don't know
that detail and then they're also putting

436
00:36:41,620 --> 00:36:42,020
And you did

437
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:49,671
a very good report here.
500000000. Into. A

438
00:36:49,681 --> 00:36:54,822
pot to solve the problem of
well you know you could build

439
00:36:54,832 --> 00:36:57,182
a house here but then you have to fix
the roads you need to get sewer and

440
00:36:57,192 --> 00:37:01,982
everything so this is these funds will go
into an existing program that helps with

441
00:37:01,992 --> 00:37:06,582
the infrastructure part of it the
applicant for that fund is not a city or

442
00:37:06,592 --> 00:37:08,952
a county it's a private
developer that works with

443
00:37:08,962 --> 00:37:13,132
a city or county so that's that's one of
the big tricks and in our region I looked

444
00:37:13,142 --> 00:37:17,732
at past cycles of this program Danko has
been successful they would have 2 projects

445
00:37:17,742 --> 00:37:24,742
in Eureka that there. Were successful in
and Samoa they use this program to get

446
00:37:24,752 --> 00:37:29,861
funding for that and I believe there was
another one in Arcadia so. But there is

447
00:37:29,871 --> 00:37:30,311
a link there is

448
00:37:30,321 --> 00:37:34,821
a lot of discussion about the linkage
between transportation and housing.

449
00:37:37,383 --> 00:37:42,305
There's one move for example try to get
some of the large companies in Silicon

450
00:37:42,315 --> 00:37:47,007
Valley to relocate or at least send off

451
00:37:47,017 --> 00:37:52,040
a portion of their workforce how do were
people living so you might find things

452
00:37:52,050 --> 00:37:58,852
that Tracy or other outlying regions to
prevent the need for people to have to make

453
00:37:58,862 --> 00:38:05,203
those long commutes and reduce some of the
congestion issues that would also allow

454
00:38:05,303 --> 00:38:09,343
for greater economic development of the
communities where the people live since

455
00:38:09,353 --> 00:38:13,063
they would be able to be
working in town and could do

456
00:38:13,073 --> 00:38:17,273
a lot of their shopping there bring in the
sales tax dollars to those communities

457
00:38:18,003 --> 00:38:24,865
instead of having them all end
up in Santa Clara County. One of

458
00:38:24,875 --> 00:38:30,035
the board members is is really insistent
on making sure that we always link housing

459
00:38:30,045 --> 00:38:36,407
and transportation. We just
don't have the ability to

460
00:38:36,927 --> 00:38:42,517
handle huge is increases in traffic on
existing roadway systems we really don't

461
00:38:42,527 --> 00:38:48,087
have the financial wherewithal I think
to keep adding more roads you know major

462
00:38:48,097 --> 00:38:53,417
roads collect the roads so the idea of
locating jobs and housing in proximity to

463
00:38:53,427 --> 00:38:56,498
one another really becomes
ever more prominent.

464
00:39:00,481 --> 00:39:06,381
I will County is not growing thriftily fast
I do doubt that it will change too soon

465
00:39:07,181 --> 00:39:12,301
but we may begin to see some increases as
we get climate refugees looking to move

466
00:39:12,341 --> 00:39:19,334
out of hot areas into cooler
areas. And that could happen

467
00:39:19,344 --> 00:39:19,494
over

468
00:39:19,504 --> 00:39:26,375
a fairly short period of time and so having
these opportunities with these different

469
00:39:26,385 --> 00:39:32,205
findings and and the work that
does to try to assist rural

470
00:39:33,045 --> 00:39:39,491
communities as well as the big urban
areas is. Really going to be useful

471
00:39:40,361 --> 00:39:47,221
we have recognition as have been special
needs in rural areas. Because of

472
00:39:47,231 --> 00:39:53,491
low population bases and low economic ability
to get things done but still have the

473
00:39:53,661 --> 00:39:58,181
kinetic needs we also have a lot
of highway miles or road miles for

474
00:39:58,191 --> 00:39:59,521
a given population so there's

475
00:39:59,531 --> 00:40:04,812
a lot of infrastructure to maintain.
For relatively small population

476
00:40:06,632 --> 00:40:12,574
and we're fortunate that we aren't. Having
to suffer from poor road maintenance.

477
00:40:13,956 --> 00:40:15,176
You know Cal friends on

478
00:40:15,216 --> 00:40:19,918
a main highways. The can be
otherwise it was strictly based on

479
00:40:19,928 --> 00:40:24,688
a per capita basis for fortune
to be up here thank you.

480
00:40:29,370 --> 00:40:35,522
Yeah there's any other board members the
comments are thoughts or questions. Like

481
00:40:39,285 --> 00:40:45,695
that's what the story is so. It's
called Get 840 gotten on top of that

482
00:40:46,155 --> 00:40:50,485
that's what that's what they're saying so
the but the 1st funding goes directly to

483
00:40:50,495 --> 00:40:56,455
cities and counties and it's mostly
for planning purposes for preparing

484
00:40:57,045 --> 00:41:01,475
preparing for what most jurisdictions haven't
done their 6 Flags cycle every night

485
00:41:01,485 --> 00:41:02,285
yet so

486
00:41:02,325 --> 00:41:07,595
a lot of them will be using that to get ready
for their for what we just went through

487
00:41:07,595 --> 00:41:14,487
. So we're currently working on our hot
housing element and almost done with it and

488
00:41:14,497 --> 00:41:20,782
that comes right after it does that mean.
Anything that is and it's yeah yeah

489
00:41:21,602 --> 00:41:25,002
I mean that. For being on time.

490
00:41:28,711 --> 00:41:31,601
If you don't get the money from teamwork
and targets I suspect you would get the

491
00:41:31,611 --> 00:41:36,271
funding and you already spent the money you
had to get reimbursed Yeah I don't know

492
00:41:36,311 --> 00:41:40,521
I'm not saying that because it sounds too
good to be true but I mean there's always

493
00:41:40,531 --> 00:41:46,541
going to be planning to do even when it's
completed you have your next planning. Or

494
00:41:46,551 --> 00:41:53,264
sort of on action thing
where I would hope so and

495
00:41:53,274 --> 00:41:56,954
I think once it comes out I can
get my eyes on it there are

496
00:41:56,964 --> 00:42:02,566
a lot of him right there are a lot of
people like he's forcing over it there's

497
00:42:02,576 --> 00:42:06,026
a lot of meetings and discussions going
on and other executives director from

498
00:42:06,036 --> 00:42:09,496
Calgary does send e-mails and say oh they
changed their mind on this they change

499
00:42:09,506 --> 00:42:14,348
their mind on that so I'm kind of just wait
and see what comes out so does does it

500
00:42:14,848 --> 00:42:20,198
matter that like say We chose I think if I
recall correctly Jones 5050 jobs housing

501
00:42:20,648 --> 00:42:25,778
does it make any difference if you like
to use more 60 percent towards jobs that

502
00:42:25,788 --> 00:42:29,518
help is that making a difference and
not in terms of the funding it makes

503
00:42:29,528 --> 00:42:36,348
a difference if you want to have more
housing in. An arcade because that's where

504
00:42:36,358 --> 00:42:38,528
most of the jobs are so that would be

505
00:42:38,538 --> 00:42:42,358
a difference if if you got more numbers
in the in the cities as opposed to the

506
00:42:42,368 --> 00:42:47,841
county in the smaller areas I mean we saw
the numbers I can't remember if it was

507
00:42:47,851 --> 00:42:52,481
a big difference or not it. Is relatively
what it was what you know it was one so

508
00:42:52,831 --> 00:42:59,803
we didn't have the biggest. And White
House and the county it always says.

509
00:43:01,883 --> 00:43:05,786
Yeah city. Did have

510
00:43:05,796 --> 00:43:12,696
a thing for any if you heard anything
regarding There was talk. Eliminating or

511
00:43:12,706 --> 00:43:19,219
severely limiting impact the that
wasn't mentioned reading you

512
00:43:19,969 --> 00:43:26,940
earlier in the budget.
Wanted to make it easier

513
00:43:26,950 --> 00:43:33,550
for developers by limiting ory limited
eating impact. Without necessarily

514
00:43:33,610 --> 00:43:39,091
regional we could be interested. There was

515
00:43:39,101 --> 00:43:44,811
a bill that did is did fail and it said if
you didn't have your housing element. Or

516
00:43:44,821 --> 00:43:48,851
you didn't mean part of the arena then you
didn't get your gas tax money so that

517
00:43:48,861 --> 00:43:49,901
did not move forward.

518
00:43:55,722 --> 00:44:01,414
Thank you. So now we're 90
Caltrans report on the one

519
00:44:01,424 --> 00:44:06,344
a one quarter front. Well
might just want to go OK.

520
00:44:12,706 --> 00:44:16,036
Hello everyone. My name
is Jeff come and tell me

521
00:44:16,046 --> 00:44:22,116
a project manager here Caltrans in our
district one office. And I am the project

522
00:44:22,126 --> 00:44:26,476
manager for the record kid record or project
so today I'm here to provide an update

523
00:44:26,486 --> 00:44:33,386
on that. So 1st I'll cover. The
mitigation the well in mitigation project

524
00:44:33,396 --> 00:44:39,126
that we are currently designing and
negotiating with the permitting agencies so I

525
00:44:39,136 --> 00:44:39,886
know there's been

526
00:44:40,446 --> 00:44:47,240
a change in the board but
previously we had. Not so good

527
00:44:47,250 --> 00:44:50,120
news that in the amount of
wetland mitigation we had

528
00:44:50,130 --> 00:44:55,580
a parcel that was dedicated for the wetland
mitigation wasn't going to be able to

529
00:44:55,590 --> 00:45:01,010
produce the amount of wetland mitigation
we needed it to so the team had to go back

530
00:45:01,020 --> 00:45:05,100
to the drawing board a little
bit in terms of either finding

531
00:45:05,140 --> 00:45:11,170
a suitable site to provide that mitigation
and work with the permitting agencies on

532
00:45:11,180 --> 00:45:18,160
that on that topic so we were successfully
able to get the Coastal Commission to

533
00:45:18,170 --> 00:45:23,630
agree to spar tiny eradication in the humble
Bay region which is an invasive grass

534
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:29,590
species that is ecologically not good for
the environment so we are going to be

535
00:45:29,630 --> 00:45:32,410
actually doing that to satisfy V.M.

536
00:45:32,420 --> 00:45:38,800
Packs required by offsetting those impacts
for the Coastal Commission most likely

537
00:45:38,810 --> 00:45:42,060
on Indian island. Which will be is

538
00:45:42,070 --> 00:45:47,570
a tribe property and we've gotten approval
from them to partner with them on doing

539
00:45:47,580 --> 00:45:50,880
that and they're very excited
about that so that will have

540
00:45:50,890 --> 00:45:56,740
a huge economic or not economic ecological
benefit to the humble Bay. Are to other

541
00:45:56,750 --> 00:46:00,580
permanent Gavan seas we're dealing with
and well in mitigation is the water board

542
00:46:00,860 --> 00:46:07,230
and the Army Corps of Engineers and we
will be developing the Samoa parcel which

543
00:46:07,240 --> 00:46:13,771
the project has had for quite some time
doing well in mitigation there and. Putting

544
00:46:13,781 --> 00:46:17,751
that whole package together we expect and
see that the cost of actually doing the

545
00:46:17,761 --> 00:46:23,341
mitigation sit be should be substantially
cheaper than the previous plan at the

546
00:46:23,491 --> 00:46:29,201
land fair parcel and so with that it appears
as though we'll have the capacity and

547
00:46:29,211 --> 00:46:33,731
space to be able to ride all the wet limited
geisha and that the Hubble Bay Trail

548
00:46:33,741 --> 00:46:38,121
South will need for the impacts related
to the trail so that's obviously

549
00:46:38,131 --> 00:46:42,271
a positive thing we had already committed
to doing the well in mitigation for

550
00:46:42,281 --> 00:46:46,581
humble Bay Trail North this it which the
city of arcade already completed so

551
00:46:46,591 --> 00:46:51,981
between these 2 this part time eradication
and the smoke mitigation that will be

552
00:46:51,991 --> 00:46:57,991
building off site we should be able
to mitigate for all the recur kid

553
00:46:58,001 --> 00:47:02,641
a Corps projects which there are so Cal
Tran focus projects as well not it's part

554
00:47:02,651 --> 00:47:07,631
of the step in the you know location but
then also humble Bay Trail North and I

555
00:47:07,641 --> 00:47:12,541
will be trail south and we're currently
working on agreement with Humboldt County

556
00:47:12,551 --> 00:47:17,521
right now to solidify those agreements on
the mitigation that we're open to be able

557
00:47:17,531 --> 00:47:22,541
to provide to the county for their trail
project. Currently we're in the permitting

558
00:47:22,551 --> 00:47:29,511
phase. And we expect to be getting
our permits through this month

559
00:47:29,521 --> 00:47:33,941
and into next month and then with our
final permit the close development permit

560
00:47:33,951 --> 00:47:40,711
which we were scheduled to be able to get
in June but unfortunately was pushed. To

561
00:47:40,721 --> 00:47:45,961
August so we are on target to
be heard and have a hearing for

562
00:47:45,971 --> 00:47:50,531
a coast of element permit and this would
include all projects at the August hearing

563
00:47:50,541 --> 00:47:55,081
which I believe is August 7th 8th and
9th that's here in Eureka the wharf and

564
00:47:55,091 --> 00:48:02,091
you're building. And the big driver
behind wanting to get our permits done is

565
00:48:02,101 --> 00:48:07,301
we have other safety projects that had
delivery dates in June and we're trying to

566
00:48:07,311 --> 00:48:10,451
meet those deadlines and deliver those
projects to the public and get them

567
00:48:10,461 --> 00:48:12,171
constructed so we have a little bit of

568
00:48:12,181 --> 00:48:19,171
a delay but the nice thing for the
Indian ls to project. Which God has

569
00:48:19,211 --> 00:48:23,541
most interest then is we will have those
but we expect to have those permits by

570
00:48:23,551 --> 00:48:29,941
August for all projects so we will be. We
expect to complete the permitting phase

571
00:48:29,951 --> 00:48:33,071
well in advance of delivery of the
project which is a really nice thing

572
00:48:33,081 --> 00:48:36,531
a lot of times especially here on the
coast with all the complexities in the

573
00:48:36,541 --> 00:48:40,801
coastal zone and various other issues
that we're dealing with on permit ing

574
00:48:41,071 --> 00:48:44,021
sometimes our permits are coming
in at the 11th hour and it puts

575
00:48:44,031 --> 00:48:49,161
a lot of risk in terms of the project
schedule still be nice that the Caltrans shop

576
00:48:49,171 --> 00:48:52,861
projects that we're trying to deliver kind
of driving that schedule to get those

577
00:48:52,901 --> 00:48:59,791
early on in the development process.
See here we've been closely

578
00:48:59,801 --> 00:49:03,061
coordinating with all the Permit me
agencies on the mitigation as well as the

579
00:49:03,071 --> 00:49:08,722
permit and. I was actually
going to mention.

580
00:49:09,992 --> 00:49:10,932
Thomas Stewart

581
00:49:11,102 --> 00:49:15,272
a local photographer had taken some video
footage at the end in the intersection

582
00:49:15,282 --> 00:49:17,612
back in 2013 when we when there was

583
00:49:17,622 --> 00:49:23,882
a coastal development hearing related to
the consistency conditions that Caltrans

584
00:49:23,892 --> 00:49:28,732
of set with around sea level rise planning
visual and well in mitigation and

585
00:49:28,742 --> 00:49:33,322
betrayal or trail planning he went out
recently took more footage of the

586
00:49:33,332 --> 00:49:38,712
intersection shared some planetary clips
with me and I think we've got some really

587
00:49:38,722 --> 00:49:42,972
good compelling footage to be able to present
at the Coastal Commission hearing in

588
00:49:42,982 --> 00:49:48,612
August again just to reiterate the real
significant need for this safety project so

589
00:49:48,792 --> 00:49:55,255
that was nice for him to. Volunteer his
time to to do that and support of the

590
00:49:55,265 --> 00:50:02,051
project. So you hear so the
deadlines I'm going I do

591
00:50:02,061 --> 00:50:02,281
have

592
00:50:02,291 --> 00:50:09,351
a bit of unfortunate news that recently
popped up on the project so. Late last

593
00:50:09,361 --> 00:50:14,991
year we performed in the fall September
October November we performed drilling at

594
00:50:15,001 --> 00:50:15,691
the N.D.L.

595
00:50:15,701 --> 00:50:22,591
Intersection to understand more about the
soil. The soil condition at the side

596
00:50:22,601 --> 00:50:27,541
of the structure and the results recently
came in after all the testing we had to

597
00:50:27,551 --> 00:50:33,161
send off the samples to various labs are
Geo Tech folks got the data and April of 2

598
00:50:33,171 --> 00:50:39,781
$1019.00 April this year and the
soils are such that the amount of

599
00:50:39,791 --> 00:50:41,521
settlement that will occur as

600
00:50:41,531 --> 00:50:46,631
a result of the large bills and structure
and just the loading at that location

601
00:50:47,031 --> 00:50:51,981
that there is going to be significant
settlement that the current design of the

602
00:50:51,991 --> 00:50:57,171
structures in terms of the foundation. Won't
be able to accommodate that amount of

603
00:50:57,181 --> 00:51:03,701
settlement so with that there's going
to need to be some modification to the

604
00:51:03,711 --> 00:51:08,021
structure and fill prison designed to
be able to accommodate that amount of

605
00:51:08,031 --> 00:51:12,971
settlement which is in the neighborhood
of 6 to 8 feet so if you imagine

606
00:51:13,281 --> 00:51:19,291
a 20 foot fill prism being placed on that
soil they're saying that original soil

607
00:51:19,301 --> 00:51:24,011
that's there they're expecting it to settle
anywhere between 6 and 8 feet and so

608
00:51:24,021 --> 00:51:28,961
that leads to a lot of.
Consideration when you're designing

609
00:51:28,971 --> 00:51:35,971
a structure foundation to be sure that
your structure is not you know is is held

610
00:51:36,441 --> 00:51:41,501
is held there and standing and not not
moving in ways you don't want to move so

611
00:51:41,781 --> 00:51:46,521
this is a very recent news it is
most definitely going to have

612
00:51:46,531 --> 00:51:53,301
a cost impact on the project to
what magnitude I am not sure yet I

613
00:51:53,311 --> 00:52:00,191
should know more and by next week
the team is 100 percent focused on

614
00:52:00,201 --> 00:52:02,221
developing a solution for this which

615
00:52:02,461 --> 00:52:07,121
a part of that solution will definitely
be increased pile diameters for the piles

616
00:52:07,131 --> 00:52:13,701
of the of the footing for the for the
structure as well as. Longer length of piles

617
00:52:13,711 --> 00:52:20,501
or pile length is likely told nearly
doubling in length and so. And there's other

618
00:52:20,511 --> 00:52:24,741
considerations that are being taken and
into place so all of our jihad techs

619
00:52:24,751 --> 00:52:27,841
structure staff design
staff are all this is

620
00:52:27,851 --> 00:52:34,401
a priority for them right now and the team
has done an exhaustive effort looking at

621
00:52:34,411 --> 00:52:36,861
one of the constraints around developing

622
00:52:36,871 --> 00:52:40,241
a solution and one of those top
constraints that I really feel as

623
00:52:40,251 --> 00:52:42,121
a project manager H.

624
00:52:42,131 --> 00:52:47,261
Kaga is you know my and the department's
client and so we serve you in this project

625
00:52:47,271 --> 00:52:50,941
and so one of the top constraints is doing
everything we can to minimize those cost

626
00:52:50,951 --> 00:52:56,421
increases and the team's aware of
that because when you're developing

627
00:52:56,431 --> 00:53:01,131
a solution there's more expensive things
that made us that might necessarily make

628
00:53:01,141 --> 00:53:04,831
sense and then maybe there are simpler
things that we can do that do make more

629
00:53:04,841 --> 00:53:05,991
sense and so there's

630
00:53:06,001 --> 00:53:11,081
a lot of constraints and developing that
solution from you know not increasing

631
00:53:11,091 --> 00:53:16,751
environmental impacts to all kinds of other
things that we need to look at and so I

632
00:53:16,761 --> 00:53:22,651
just wanted to communicate that to you
that cost is definitely something that is

633
00:53:22,661 --> 00:53:28,121
a priority in terms of how we develop the
solution so I have given Marcel of this

634
00:53:28,131 --> 00:53:33,921
update similar to what I just mentioned
last week so as we get more information

635
00:53:33,931 --> 00:53:40,330
we'll share that. And with that
we were you know we've been.

636
00:53:41,420 --> 00:53:45,340
Communicating with our headquarters programming
staff and by the end of this month

637
00:53:45,350 --> 00:53:51,050
our headquarters programming staff on the
steps aside needs to have updated project

638
00:53:51,060 --> 00:53:56,080
programming requests are also called P
P R's which basically set out all the

639
00:53:56,090 --> 00:54:00,420
funding commitments by the various programs
for the projects and they need to know

640
00:54:00,430 --> 00:54:04,400
about any cost increases for existing
project program projects they're going to

641
00:54:04,410 --> 00:54:10,440
carry over into the 2020 step and this
would be one of them so by the end of the

642
00:54:10,450 --> 00:54:15,420
month we need to submit an updated
project programming request to them that

643
00:54:15,430 --> 00:54:20,520
reflects those costs and our son I have
communicated little bit about this I know

644
00:54:20,530 --> 00:54:26,750
Marcello's voice to me that she's
hopeful that the I tip which we had

645
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:33,740
a sizable increase back and I think it
was 201617 both on the mitigation and

646
00:54:33,750 --> 00:54:38,670
on the project itself we were able to get
the eye to kick in 85 percent of that

647
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:43,010
increase with only 15 percent coming
from local repairs so that was obviously

648
00:54:43,020 --> 00:54:47,990
a nice thing in talking with our
programming staff it appears as though.

649
00:54:49,761 --> 00:54:54,781
Those funding splits are kind of the basis
for moving forward on cost increases but

650
00:54:54,821 --> 00:54:58,741
you know Marcello has voiced
that desire to look for

651
00:54:58,751 --> 00:55:05,261
a potential of getting. Di tip to fully
kick and increases but that's not

652
00:55:05,271 --> 00:55:05,841
necessarily

653
00:55:05,851 --> 00:55:10,071
a decision that the district makes that's
really something that you know we are all

654
00:55:10,081 --> 00:55:13,651
working together as partners because we
have the relationship here with the local

655
00:55:13,661 --> 00:55:18,801
staff but we just need to have more
conversations with headquarters programming on

656
00:55:18,811 --> 00:55:23,881
that topic but I do know in talking with
them that the initial starting point is

657
00:55:23,891 --> 00:55:28,671
always that funding arrangement
and it's likely the 8515.

658
00:55:30,351 --> 00:55:36,991
Percentages that were used on the last
funding increase like I said I don't have

659
00:55:37,271 --> 00:55:42,721
a barometer on where the costs are going
to be. But as soon as we know will be

660
00:55:42,731 --> 00:55:46,741
informing and letting you guys know but
we will need to be submitting that P.P.R.

661
00:55:46,781 --> 00:55:52,801
Before the end of the month our headquarters
staff want to also know what kind of

662
00:55:52,811 --> 00:55:57,781
magnitude of cost increase are we talking
about and that likely may play into how

663
00:55:57,791 --> 00:56:04,151
we deal with the issue but it's an unfortunate
piece of news but also timing and

664
00:56:04,161 --> 00:56:06,851
getting it in before the end
of the month is I would say

665
00:56:06,861 --> 00:56:11,881
a positive thing because if we were to do
this mid cycle in the 2020 step and not

666
00:56:11,891 --> 00:56:17,611
when it's being established we really risk
that the step has already been. Spoken

667
00:56:17,621 --> 00:56:21,701
for in terms of the projects that will
be funding and you'd run the risk of not

668
00:56:21,711 --> 00:56:26,351
being able to get the i'd have to come in
and kick and dollars for cost increases

669
00:56:26,361 --> 00:56:31,141
so. See if there's anything
else I want to share on that.

670
00:56:38,561 --> 00:56:44,401
That was it so can you remind me like when
we're planning on doing the construction

671
00:56:44,841 --> 00:56:51,721
so yeah so the concert delivery years
2021 right now the delivery month I

672
00:56:51,731 --> 00:56:56,551
believe is August of 2020 in terms of what
we call pencils down designs done and

673
00:56:56,561 --> 00:57:03,061
then we start mobilizing to get. The
contract advertise and then subsequently

674
00:57:03,071 --> 00:57:03,591
awarded to

675
00:57:03,601 --> 00:57:10,091
a contractor so if it was
completed in late summer fall of

676
00:57:10,101 --> 00:57:17,002
2020 it likely would go to construction
and 2021 and I also am not

677
00:57:17,012 --> 00:57:23,712
certain whether this. News in terms of
the soil condition may have an impact

678
00:57:23,922 --> 00:57:27,452
on delivery of the project we don't feel
at this time it would delay delivery of

679
00:57:27,462 --> 00:57:30,972
the project with the amount of settlement
that needs to occur there's actually

680
00:57:31,392 --> 00:57:37,282
a time period where that soil needs to
surcharge that soil and settle and that

681
00:57:37,292 --> 00:57:40,562
could potentially I'm told add some time
to the construction timeline of the

682
00:57:40,572 --> 00:57:45,422
project because they need to just let soil
do its thing so that they don't build

683
00:57:45,432 --> 00:57:49,942
the road in the asphalt and then things
continue to move and then we have more

684
00:57:49,952 --> 00:57:54,422
complications and more cost to fix that
so we're looking at that whole picture

685
00:57:54,432 --> 00:58:01,275
right now and will update you as we
know more. Any questions on that or.

686
00:58:04,511 --> 00:58:10,021
So Jeff early on with your presentation
thank you for that very detail you talked

687
00:58:10,031 --> 00:58:13,801
about going to the Coastal
Commission and that you were doing

688
00:58:13,811 --> 00:58:19,861
a project at Woodley island in some other
area so is that an offsetting of what's

689
00:58:19,871 --> 00:58:25,201
happening is that what we could call that
and off setting up what's happening at

690
00:58:25,211 --> 00:58:31,971
the Bay Area which you're now working with
the tribe and I know she mentioned and

691
00:58:31,981 --> 00:58:38,381
they can't remember what it was that
well offset the effects of this

692
00:58:39,001 --> 00:58:45,171
interchange on Indian All right so on
Indian island there's it's discovered I

693
00:58:45,181 --> 00:58:49,411
believe $180.00 acres of this invasive
grass species so close the Coastal

694
00:58:49,421 --> 00:58:51,801
Commission is allowing us based on

695
00:58:51,811 --> 00:58:56,321
a formula and based on how
dense that grass species is in

696
00:58:56,331 --> 00:59:03,101
a certain area crediting us for against
permanent wetland loss that the court or

697
00:59:03,111 --> 00:59:07,911
projects as well as the trail projects
are having so I think across all the

698
00:59:07,921 --> 00:59:11,271
corridor projects and the bailiff
Bay Trail projects there's

699
00:59:11,281 --> 00:59:17,191
a little bit more than $800.00 acres of
permanent weapon loss and. They call in no

700
00:59:17,201 --> 00:59:21,221
net loss policies of the impact the nature
of wetland you've got to put an acre

701
00:59:21,231 --> 00:59:26,751
back in terms of the Coastal Commission
there's a formula by which there's

702
00:59:26,761 --> 00:59:31,411
a certain amount of acreage of spar time
eradication that we can do to offset each

703
00:59:31,421 --> 00:59:35,691
acre of wealth and loss and so the start
time eradication is the side of side the

704
00:59:35,701 --> 00:59:42,111
Coastal Commission the Samoa mitigation
will actually be creating wetlands at the

705
00:59:42,121 --> 00:59:49,001
smaller parcel there off to $55.00 that
will be dissatisfied the no net loss policy

706
00:59:49,011 --> 00:59:52,491
of the water board Regional Water Quality
Control Board as well as the Army Corps

707
00:59:52,501 --> 00:59:59,151
of Engineers. Since it's been

708
00:59:59,161 --> 01:00:03,881
a while since some of the design issues
were discussed can you remind me for some

709
01:00:03,891 --> 01:00:10,271
of survey you know how each of the
existing. Crossings will be handled

710
01:00:11,071 --> 01:00:17,271
yes so. The Indianola under crossing and
half signal project is what we call it

711
01:00:17,561 --> 01:00:22,681
will include the under crossing in Indianola
And when we say under crossing it's

712
01:00:22,691 --> 01:00:27,411
always in reference to what the local road
is doing to the highway so when and you

713
01:00:27,421 --> 01:00:32,021
know under crossing means Indianola will
go under one A $11.00 A one will go over

714
01:00:32,071 --> 01:00:36,861
Indianola that will be the 1st stage
or part of construction il actually be

715
01:00:36,871 --> 01:00:42,481
multiple stages just to perform that work
in Indianola along with that addition the

716
01:00:42,491 --> 01:00:44,351
other parts of the scope
of the project would be

717
01:00:44,361 --> 01:00:51,101
a half signal airport road there by Karl
Johnson's Jacobs Avenue where northbound

718
01:00:51,111 --> 01:00:55,911
traffic would be controlled by the signal
as well as vehicles that are going

719
01:00:55,921 --> 01:01:00,951
southbound and turning left into airport
road and then vehicles coming from airport

720
01:01:00,961 --> 01:01:06,231
road turning left to go south on WANT TO
ONE would be controlled by the signal

721
01:01:06,581 --> 01:01:11,901
vehicles simply traveling southbound to
Eureka from our kiddo would be able to flow

722
01:01:11,941 --> 01:01:17,741
unimpeded by the signal. So that would be
the changes that intersection and then

723
01:01:17,751 --> 01:01:22,861
all of the other intersections including
the Mid City California redwood intersect

724
01:01:22,921 --> 01:01:29,201
a median opening break Bayside those will
all be closed and the proposed there

725
01:01:29,211 --> 01:01:35,641
would be to excavate out that pavement
area and actually create. Did she

726
01:01:35,751 --> 01:01:40,991
wetlands in that area similar to what's in
the middle of the media and there today

727
01:01:41,291 --> 01:01:46,931
and not would be done after the construction
and you know so that the impacts in

728
01:01:46,941 --> 01:01:51,491
terms of diverting traffic and not being
able to make movements with Indianola not

729
01:01:51,531 --> 01:01:57,631
operationally at that stage would occur
after the. The Enter crossing is

730
01:01:57,671 --> 01:02:02,821
functioning. When you say closed you mean
mean simply crossing across the other

731
01:02:02,831 --> 01:02:08,031
lanes of traffic or will those in or
she says be no longer there those

732
01:02:08,041 --> 01:02:12,921
intersections will no longer be there
so you would essentially continue the

733
01:02:12,931 --> 01:02:17,161
vegetated median with that large ditch
through there it would look so I don't leave

734
01:02:17,171 --> 01:02:20,911
that center I mean you'd still be able to
go on and off of $101.00 of each of those

735
01:02:20,921 --> 01:02:25,681
locations direct yes to the outside you'd
be able to make so essentially you have

736
01:02:25,691 --> 01:02:31,931
right in and right out at those locations
and then lastly how are you addressing

737
01:02:32,541 --> 01:02:38,121
sea level rise so sea level rises
that we could probably be here for

738
01:02:38,131 --> 01:02:44,454
a while and that I'm not going to. Pretend
to be to sea level rise expert but.

739
01:02:45,524 --> 01:02:49,384
That's part of our condition and I likely
will if you guys want an update on sea

740
01:02:49,394 --> 01:02:53,144
level rise I'd like to do is come back
to Future board many mine and bring our

741
01:02:53,154 --> 01:02:58,144
planning for its that are doing that but.
Yeah I think that's probably the best

742
01:02:58,154 --> 01:03:00,054
approach on that question
perfect thank you.

743
01:03:09,501 --> 01:03:14,371
I'm guessing that this is probably going
probably had to see the pants guess maybe

744
01:03:14,381 --> 01:03:17,631
a 6 month delay in the
project and depending on if

745
01:03:17,641 --> 01:03:19,971
a little bit of your
funds you've had to do

746
01:03:19,981 --> 01:03:24,141
a quick report to my council you're saying
with the soil issues that we're having

747
01:03:24,291 --> 01:03:30,291
here just well yes. I would say that's
probably not accurate it could be longer it

748
01:03:30,301 --> 01:03:36,771
could be there could be no there
could be no impact so. In terms of.

749
01:03:37,871 --> 01:03:44,501
The solutions that. Are being discussed
just around the table but not necessarily

750
01:03:45,251 --> 01:03:51,141
knowing yet the fuse ability or merit that
those have. Some could have no impact at

751
01:03:51,151 --> 01:03:56,201
all some could have significant impacts
so it's kind of weighing the constraints

752
01:03:56,211 --> 01:04:01,381
trying obviously keep the project on
schedule but minimize the cost increases as

753
01:04:01,391 --> 01:04:06,411
much as possible while also you know not
increasing our environmental impacts and

754
01:04:06,641 --> 01:04:06,921
you know

755
01:04:06,931 --> 01:04:12,151
a multitude of things that are variables
are trying to play with and as we come up

756
01:04:12,161 --> 01:04:12,271
with

757
01:04:12,281 --> 01:04:16,611
a solution to solve it thanks for being
clear about what really is unclear and.

758
01:04:21,083 --> 01:04:23,973
I just add to that so it's not
the funding that would cause

759
01:04:23,983 --> 01:04:29,583
a delay the funding is it is an outer years
if it turns out that there increase is

760
01:04:29,593 --> 01:04:31,433
huge the C.T.C.

761
01:04:31,443 --> 01:04:34,613
Might say well we don't have enough money
that year will move us out but if it's

762
01:04:35,123 --> 01:04:40,143
not that huge then they can add to the
project and the funding wouldn't cause

763
01:04:40,573 --> 01:04:47,256
a delay but the other
issues could you. Know

764
01:04:47,596 --> 01:04:53,297
moments it's there's no one in the public
comments OK thank you so much again he

765
01:04:53,307 --> 01:04:57,117
just is good to get clear up to date
information Yeah thanks for having me

766
01:05:00,347 --> 01:05:06,921
see Caltrans you were down last chance
but. So I. Just there are bits and I'm

767
01:05:07,871 --> 01:05:14,461
filling in for Kevin Tucker. The.
Senior planner that works with each cog

768
01:05:15,081 --> 01:05:15,481
and I have

769
01:05:15,491 --> 01:05:20,271
a report from gene that he only that Caltrans
project manager for Last Chance grade

770
01:05:20,351 --> 01:05:21,881
and he sent me

771
01:05:22,021 --> 01:05:26,801
a quick update with some bullet points
since I received the update I haven't had

772
01:05:26,811 --> 01:05:30,711
a chance to go back and ask him questions
but it seems like there have been some.

773
01:05:31,771 --> 01:05:37,271
Some interesting developments with this
project but I'll be happy to share with you

774
01:05:37,311 --> 01:05:42,291
his his update and if you have questions
I can see clarification then I am not

775
01:05:42,401 --> 01:05:48,661
looking to bring that back to you next
at the next board meeting but. There's 3

776
01:05:48,671 --> 01:05:55,021
items the 1st is the Full of their
geotechnical at best a geisha ins the Phase 2

777
01:05:55,171 --> 01:06:01,751
a schedule is expected to begin drilling
in August 2019 and the Phase 2 B.

778
01:06:01,761 --> 01:06:08,531
Schedule is expected to begin
drilling in October 2020. The

779
01:06:08,541 --> 01:06:09,101
Phase 2

780
01:06:09,111 --> 01:06:15,671
a Phase 2 it be those those are different
areas they look at some alternatives some

781
01:06:15,681 --> 01:06:20,741
of them are remote remote areas with
limited road access and he has died that's

782
01:06:20,751 --> 01:06:27,501
what it's. All all looking at you know
kind of. You know Jet geotechnical.

783
01:06:28,711 --> 01:06:33,031
Investigations for 4 or 10
potential roadway alignments.

784
01:06:36,551 --> 01:06:43,181
The other in this the 2nd item was.
Architecture an engineering contract that this

785
01:06:43,191 --> 01:06:47,251
isn't an area where I would have liked of
NASA more questions follow up questions

786
01:06:47,261 --> 01:06:52,291
but essentially it appears that this
this much of the technical work for this

787
01:06:52,301 --> 01:06:56,291
project will be will be
contracted out to consultant

788
01:06:56,381 --> 01:07:01,981
a consultant team you know what what the
nature of that work is projected to be

789
01:07:02,341 --> 01:07:09,061
without. That I don't know but. But
the contract is expected to be

790
01:07:09,071 --> 01:07:13,111
executed this winter so. We do have

791
01:07:13,591 --> 01:07:18,211
a contract engineers that are helping to
do some of the less people on projects

792
01:07:18,221 --> 01:07:21,711
that have increased the workload
account transfer it's not so it's not

793
01:07:21,721 --> 01:07:27,821
a typical at all. But there are some unknowns
about that hand and that might be an

794
01:07:28,211 --> 01:07:32,891
area that we can provide some more
information on the future of the 3rd item as

795
01:07:32,931 --> 01:07:37,761
a public and gauge mental development
timeline. August 2019 there's

796
01:07:37,771 --> 01:07:44,012
a field trip. Scheduled for the last
chance create alternatives and the green

797
01:07:44,022 --> 01:07:49,582
diamond properties. And I don't know if
that you know who that's open to we do I

798
01:07:49,592 --> 01:07:50,352
thought we had

799
01:07:50,592 --> 01:07:56,772
a delegate here on age Cod that was
participating in those events. So.

800
01:07:57,982 --> 01:08:04,973
So we can we can get confirmation on
that. Representative from Rio del Right

801
01:08:05,223 --> 01:08:12,110
right. So so anyway if there's any interest
on these these field trips you know

802
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:18,280
maybe Gordon or. Can can report back the
border because we could look into special

803
01:08:18,290 --> 01:08:25,240
requests September 2019 injured
Huffman Congressman men is expected

804
01:08:25,250 --> 01:08:26,050
to to conduct

805
01:08:26,060 --> 01:08:32,980
a meeting or at 10 to meeting.
November 2019 is the. California

806
01:08:32,990 --> 01:08:38,780
Transportation Commission townhall meeting
this is something that that that double

807
01:08:38,790 --> 01:08:43,490
article Transportation Commission has has
helped to facilitate Temora Layton up

808
01:08:43,500 --> 01:08:49,100
there is have had requests of this meeting
today to help introduce the C.T.C.

809
01:08:49,110 --> 01:08:50,790
Staff or C.D.C.

810
01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:53,820
The commissioners to the
to the project itself it's

811
01:08:53,830 --> 01:08:59,690
a big project that is going to require
federal funding so. Sort of exceeds the

812
01:08:59,700 --> 01:09:06,040
local ability to to to to fund that project
and their support is is essential so.

813
01:09:07,210 --> 01:09:13,960
So that out that that event will be into
November that this this fall $2800.00

814
01:09:14,740 --> 01:09:18,440
and then this winter 2019 Nope
no dates are provided but

815
01:09:18,910 --> 01:09:25,710
a public meeting is is is expected so
if we provide these updates every every

816
01:09:25,870 --> 01:09:30,630
board meeting so so we can provide more
information the future of future updates

817
01:09:31,090 --> 01:09:37,450
and if there's any questions at the Happy
to. Provide whatever information I might

818
01:09:37,460 --> 01:09:44,460
have for we'll take it back to Jamie and
we can ask if he can he can. Come in

819
01:09:44,470 --> 01:09:51,270
person to some of these board meetings if
if if there's an interest. We get. We're

820
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:55,122
happy to try to answer
questions from him OK.

821
01:09:59,941 --> 01:10:06,731
Goofy's be drilling October of 20 so the
fees to be drilling is expected to begin

822
01:10:06,741 --> 01:10:13,253
October OK $20.00. Questions. And.

823
01:10:14,283 --> 01:10:17,953
I just want to add that last
Friday representative Huffman did

824
01:10:17,963 --> 01:10:24,373
a call in on the federal transportation
bill and mentioned the word earmark so

825
01:10:24,693 --> 01:10:26,493
he would say he is requesting

826
01:10:26,533 --> 01:10:32,243
a list from our region it will be going to
the TAC and then to you in August and he

827
01:10:32,253 --> 01:10:35,323
said he's not sure if that's really going
to happen or not and I'm sure last chance

828
01:10:35,333 --> 01:10:40,363
grid will be on there for an earmark but
he just wants to have that in case it's

829
01:10:40,373 --> 01:10:45,003
necessary if he needs to get something for
us and he went once our list the last

830
01:10:45,013 --> 01:10:50,923
time I know of earmarks in the region was
around 2005 when secured it for print

831
01:10:50,933 --> 01:10:56,333
some of the work on to 99. Your marks
have been out of the conversation for

832
01:10:56,343 --> 01:11:00,693
a long time so I was going to surprise
here and just like your market it's so if

833
01:11:00,703 --> 01:11:00,903
there is

834
01:11:00,913 --> 01:11:06,203
a federal bill transportation bill and
someone wants your vote you say OK my

835
01:11:06,213 --> 01:11:12,433
project to that and your project it's
one that's the simple way to say it. If

836
01:11:12,443 --> 01:11:16,303
anybody else has another explanation you
can chime in but these would be big

837
01:11:16,313 --> 01:11:22,944
projects it would be big
projects right. Up the foot so

838
01:11:23,794 --> 01:11:23,984
there's

839
01:11:23,994 --> 01:11:27,834
a couple interchanges unfortunate that are
on our in our regional transportation

840
01:11:27,844 --> 01:11:32,354
plan but you will get that the technical
advisory committee to to discuss it

841
01:11:32,924 --> 01:11:38,965
forward something. Last on
the list is report Archita.

842
01:11:40,255 --> 01:11:46,391
Sorry one the one c 4 supplemental. So the
month of May has been added to your list

843
01:11:46,401 --> 01:11:53,301
and I do see that now that
it is. The hours on patrol

844
01:11:53,311 --> 01:11:55,541
and Miles log was reduced

845
01:11:55,551 --> 01:12:02,011
a lot one thing he did tell me that.
The sergeant has another safety Grant

846
01:12:02,251 --> 01:12:06,611
and some sometimes will be 2 weeks on 2
weeks off what he's trying now is every

847
01:12:06,621 --> 01:12:11,951
other day on odd days you'll be on that
contract and the other days you'll be on

848
01:12:11,961 --> 01:12:16,791
the court or that doesn't really explain
the decrease in hours the citations were

849
01:12:16,891 --> 01:12:23,591
still up though so that was that was good
there were 9 people cited for going over

850
01:12:23,601 --> 01:12:30,301
70 miles an hour and too numerous going
over $64.00 and there were 2 winners

851
01:12:30,381 --> 01:12:35,541
this time one from Oceanside and one from
McKinley McKinley bill going over 75

852
01:12:35,551 --> 01:12:38,751
miles an hour. In the 50
mile an hour corridor

853
01:12:45,052 --> 01:12:48,802
OK. I guess with that
we all know the jury.
