So
again,
to
introduce
myself
Dan
Albrecht
senior
planners
Trenton,
County
RPC,
there's
sort
of
three
documents
in
the
packet
you've
got
the
memo
from
me.
That
explains
why
we're
here
and
then
you
have
the
resolution
document
and
then
there's
a
separate
link
to
the
plan.
Just
by
way
of
background.
This
is
the
fourth
plan
that
has
been
done
for
the
county,
2005,
2011,
2017
and
now
2022..
H
Unlike
those
three
previous
plans,
we
are
not
the
primary
author
State
put
out
a
request
for
proposals
about
a
year
and
a
half
ago,
two
years,
maybe
now
and
we
bid
on
it.
We
did
not
win
the
contract.
It
Was
Won
by
a
group
called
IEM,
which
is
a
national
consulting
firm.
That
does
a
lot
of
Hazard
mitigation
plans,
so
they
won
the
contract
and
but
we
were
a
part.
H
So
it's
a
it's
a
big
long
document.
The
primary
purpose
of
it,
of
course,
is
planning
is
a
good
thing
to
do
and
with
Hazard
mitigation,
it's
even
better
just
to
reduce
the
impacts
of
Hazards
hazards
are
going
to
happen.
But
if
you
take
actions
ahead
of
time,
you
can
mitigate
those
effects
of
those
hazards.
H
H
Okay,
so
there's
the
the
plan
document,
one
other
thing:
that's
very
different
about
this
plan
compared
to
the
older
one.
Is
that
the
the
just
it's
gotten
even
longer
it's
gone
from
180
some
pages
to
373,
Pages
IEM
had
a
lot
of
well.
They
they,
the
general
order
of
the
chapters,
is
the
same
because
it
follows
a
FEMA
rubric,
but
they
added
a
lot
more
detail
and
data
on
on
different
hazards
again
very
high
level
data,
but
data
nonetheless.
H
So
that's
why
I
got
longer
the
the
key
items
here
again
you
you
do
it
because
of
good
planning
it
also.
The
other
thing
is
that
this
plan
serves
as
the
thick
description,
the
necessary
analysis
required
by
the
code
of
federal
regulations
for
a
hazard
mitigation
plan,
and
this
this
large
document
serves
that
purpose
for
the
municipal
plans
which
are
annexed
to
this
document.
So
this
is
called
a
multi-jurisdictional
plan
because
it
has
this
larger
umbrella
document.
That
brings
it
all
together
and
it
does
endorse
some
Regional
level
actions
as
well
too.
H
H
H
The
the
process
again
was
to
of
the
planning
process.
Was
you
know,
reviewing
the
hazards,
updating
the
relative
risk
for
different
hazards.
Looking
at
the
strategies
plan
maintenance,
then
putting
together
the
plan
this
table
gives
you
a
sense
of
the
different
relative
impacts,
severity
of
different
hazards
across
the
county
and
and
the
individual
towns.
H
The
big
ones
for
us
are
human
infectious
disease,
severe
rainstorm,
severe
winter
storm
and
then
water
pollution,
otherwise
known
as
phosphorus,
and
all
that
entails
with
the
ms4
permits
and
the
municipal
roads
General
permits.
So
those
are
the
big
ones.
We
talk
about
the
the
categories
of
actions,
the
the
strategies
pretty
slightly
different
wording,
but
but
pretty
much
the
same
as
what
we
did
before
in
2017.
H
large-scale
planning
category.
A
the
work
with
tactical
Basin
plants,
so
much
of
Hazard
mitigation
is
tied
into
water
quality
management
infrastructure,
help,
of
course,
protecting
existing
development,
promoting
growth
in
appropriate
locations
and
Men.
Category
f
is
almost
a
it's
a
strategy
to
be
sure
that
our
the
fiscal
impact
of
Hazards
to
municipalities
are
are
kept
at
a
manageable
level
the.
So
we
get
again
into
the
the
the
body
of
the
plan
again,
it
gives
an
introduction.
H
We
do
the
talks
about
the
process.
What
meetings
were
held,
the
large
description
and
then
you
really
get
into
the
different
hazards
and
profiles
of
all
the
different
and
you'll
notice
right
here
from
page
90.
to
302
is
the
bulk
of
the
plan
right
there.
It's
all
about
the
profiles
of
the
hazard,
so
it's
got
some
thick
description
of
every
single
natural
Hazard
and
then
a
little
bit
smaller
amount
on
technology,
Technical
and
societal
hazards.
H
Fema
only
requires
to
do
natural
hazards.
We
talk
a
little
bit
about
technical
hazards
and
societal
hazards
because
we
did
in
the
previous
plans
and
then
after
you
look
at
the
different
hazards,
you
say
well:
what's
our
capability?
Some
hazards
may
be
significant,
but
we
have
plenty
of
ongoing
actions
that
already
addressed
them.
H
So
again,
there's
the
strategies
again
right
here,
the
different
categories
of
strategies,
and
we
do.
We
have
different
Regional
activities.
You
know
we
help
with
the
zoning
bylaws
River
corridors,
infectious
disease
and
invasive
species,
so
on
and
down
the
line
tentacles.
So
it
gives
a
summary
here
of
the
ways
we
help
again.
Most
of
this
is
the
responsibility
at
the
municipal
level,
but
we
do
some
of
this
as
well
too.
Land
conservation
plays
a
big
role
as
well
too,
because
to
the
extent
you
have
undeveloped
land
protected
land.
H
We
it
just
gives
so
we
we
recap
what
we
did
from
2017.
plan
as
well.
What's
the
status
of
those
actions?
What
progress
we
made
a
lot
of
good
progress,
working
with
municipalities
on
bylaws,
strengthening
their
water
quality
language,
their
flood
resiliency
chapters,
stormwater
Master
planning,
ms4
work
with
private
green
infrastructure,
the
municipal
roads
General
permit
all
the
great
work
done
by
your
town,
road
crews,
as
well
as
Chris
Dubin
here,
and
our
staff
keeping
track
of
all
this
stuff.
I
H
H
D
D
you'll
notice
that
a
culvert
is
being
replaced
under
Route
89,
you
might
Ponder.
Where
does
that
Culvert
outflow
go
and
I
will
just
say
we
have
been
challenged
in
coordination
with
the
agency
of
Transportation
on.
Where
does
stuff
come?
Where
does
it
go
after?
It
comes
off
the
highway
or
off
Route,
2.
D
and
so
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
language
here
about
municipalities,
but
that's
a
tough
one.
So,
given
what
we
see
for
storm
water
and
upsizing,
culverts
and
stuff,
just
I'm
not
sure.
Can
you
briefly
say
what
the
agency
of
transportation's
role
is
for
controlling
storm
water?
It
comes
off
their
roads.
H
D
Really
said,
it's
a
narrow
local
issue,
but
it
might
be
worth
following
up
because
again
in
a
small
town,
it's
particularly
obvious
and
you
can
actually
see
places
where
there's
one
place
where
there
was
a
washout
next
to
our
elementary
school,
where
it
came
from
underneath
the
interstate.
If
it
were
just
flowing
across
the
hillside,
it
wouldn't
be
a
problem,
but
when
all
of
it
is
funneled
through
yeah.
H
I
know
that
place
you're
talking
about
because
it
was
actually
identified
in
the
Richmond
stormwater
master
plan
and
I
know.
Friends
of
the
Winooski
river
is
working
on
the
design
of
some
of
the
storm
water
treatment
there
and
during
the
planning
process.
A
few
years
ago,
was
coordinating
with
v-trans.
But
okay.
H
Yeah
they're
they're
looking
at
their
individual
annexes
now,
but
they
were
involved
in
drafting
them
and
actually
I
did
notice
that
some
of
the
municipalities
are
giving
it
a
good
read
because
they're
correcting
some
of
the
texts,
some
of
the
pagination
and
the
boilerplate,
and
things
like
that.
So
yeah.
E
C
You
know
just
kind
of
bringing
this
up,
because
this
is
a
kind
of
unusual
document
in
it's
multi-layered
it
has.
The
state
is
approving
it
on
behalf
of
FEMA.
The
towns
have
annexes
we're
approving
it.
It's
kind
of
a
multi-jurisdictional.
You
know
kind
of
combined
look
at
issues,
but
it's
got
multiple
eyes
on
okay,
Chris.
H
H
H
I
did
provide
the
consultant
with
the
text
of
the
old
plan
that
probably
made
her
job
a
little
easier
and
I.
Don't
get
rid
of
a
scotch
I
do
say
in
my
I've
noticed
that
Colchester
has
a
lot
of
Life
Safety
staff.
You
know
they've
got
good
coordination
and
they
and
I,
at
least
you
know,
Colchester
administers
its
own
Lakeshore,
permitting
program.
It's
one
of
the
few.
With
that
delegated
authority.
It's
got
a
strong
floodplain
Management
program,
so
I
think
they
probably
thought
like
yeah.
We
should
probably
do
this
on
our
own.
J
Exactly
just
to
add
what
to
what
Dan
said:
I,
you
know
I
think
that
was
part
of
it,
but
also
I
Our
Town
manager.
He
loves
to
pinch
pennies
and
it
was.
It
was
about
the
match
too,
and
I
think
it
came
out
to
be
less
costly
to
use
our
own
resources,
but
we
do
have
a
really
good
staff
too,
although
we
did
hire
a
consultant,
she
worked
closely
with
with
the
other
staff
there.
H
H
J
B
B
B
B
B
K
K
Over
the
past
year
we've
been
working
with
RSG
on
an
update
to
our
Chittenden
County
Park
and
Ride
plan,
which
was
last
completed
in
2011.,
and
you
know
that
that
previous
2011
plan
concluded
with
a
you
know
a
lengthy
list
of
prioritized
Park
and
Ride
facilities,
and
you
know
our
current
plan
features
a
much
shorter
list
of
recommendations
due
to
some
changing
commuter
landscape
items,
which
I
will
let
Jonathan
slice
him
tell
you
about
in
the
presentation
so
Jonathan
you
can
take
it
away.
If
you
have
screen
sharing
ability.
L
L
Really.
The
outcome,
as
Marshall
said,
is
a
much
more
succinct
list
of
activities
and
the
we
have
a
subconsultant
Stephen
falbel
from
Steadman
Hill,
who
was
really
helpful,
informing
us
how
the
transit
system
is
such
an
integral
part
of
parking
rods
and
how
the
travel
Behavior
over
the
last
couple
years
has
really
changed
things
and
because
we
don't
have
a
really
solid
footing
for
how
travel
behaviors
are
going
to
emerge
post
pandemic.
L
We
are
trying
to
look
at
an
update
here
that
will
that
will
give
us
the
insights
as
to
what
type
of
Investments
we
want
to
make
today.
What
type
of
monitoring
we
can
put
in
place
so
that
we
can
be
reactive
once
travel
Behavior
starts
to
either
revert
back
to
pre-covered
Norms
or
continue
to
to
change.
L
The
plan
goals
were
re
investigated
at
the
beginning
of
this
effort,
and
we
became
a
little
bit
more
focused
in
those
goals
and
we
centered
around
safety,
accessibility
and
efficiency
trying
to
find
locations
and
to
identify
how
we
can
improve
safety,
accessibility
and
efficiency
of
the
existing
Lots.
We
looked
at
mobility
and
Equity.
L
We
realized
that
Park
and
rides
are
in
essence,
an
economy
boost.
Is
that
we're
looking
to
lower
the
cost
of
Mobility?
Is
that
allow
people
to
shift
into
lower
cost
modes,
either
a
carpooling
or
to
a
Transit
option,
and
so
that
they're
able
to
have
more
money
in
their
pocket
and
we'd
also
be
able
to
build
less
parking
in
some
of
our
more
expensive
locations
within
County
and
then
we're
looking
to?
How
can
we
preserve
and
modernize
our
existing
assets
and
infrastructure?
L
The
study
has
investigated
14
total
facilities.
10
of
which
are
within
the
county
and
four
others
outside
of
the
county,
thanks
to
Chris
Dubin
and
his
team
who's
been
diligent
and
collecting
data
over
many
many
years
in
terms
of
the
occupancy.
The
number
of
cars
parked
in
these
parking
lots,
but
also
the
physical
Lots
themselves
in
terms
of
certain
attributes,
such
as
information
shelters,
whether
it's
paved
or
not.
L
All
these
characteristics
have
been
tracked
over
time
and
we
have
a
really
rich
data
set
to
use
and
investigate
to
say
how
is
the
current
system
and
what
type
of
improvements
would
we
be
looking
to
make
or
recommend?
Most
of
the
facilities
are
unsatisfactory.
Can
physical
condition
about
a
third
are
not
currently
Say
by
preserved
by
transit,
so
they're,
primarily
a
carpool
consolidation
Point
rather
than
a
Transit
most
of
the
facilities?
Don't
have
adequate
non-motorized
access.
L
So
if
you
wanted
to
walk
or
bike
to
a
to
a
to
a
park
and
ride
and
then
jump
on
the
bus,
it
is
a
it's
a
bit
of
a
struggle
for
most
of
the
facilities.
Richmond
case
in
point,
pre-pandemic
was
one
of
the
most
busy
and
highest
occupancy
Park
and
Ride
lots,
and
it
was
a
difficult
place
to
access,
particularly
from
the
residential
communities
in
Richmond.
So
it's
identified.
We
we
realize
that
regimen's
taking
efforts
underway
under
separate
initiatives
to
improve
the
multimodal
access
to
that
park
and
ride.
L
Maybe
I'll
call
out
that
in
the
southwest
portion
of
the
county
there's
a
bit
of
a
gap,
you
can
see,
there's
the
exit,
16
and
Essex
landfill,
and
then
you
have
Hinesburg,
but
then
there's
a
missing
component
of
Charlotte
and
Shelburne.
So
we'll
discuss
that
in
a
little
bit,
based
on
our
research
of
literature,
review
nationally
and
and
locally,
these
facility
attributes
came
came
up
as
our
minimum
recommendations.
L
We
realize
that
there's
some
sensitivity
as
to
who
owns
the
park
and
ride
lot,
whether
it's
in
state,
right-of-way
or
not,
and
so
there's
clearly
complexities
here.
But
we
realize
that
that's
an
important
attribute,
secure
bike,
lockers
for
being
an
also
one.
We
realize
that
there's
testing
in
Richmond
I
believe
where
they
moved
from
Winooski,
but
secure
bike.
Lockers
would
be
a
key
component
to
in
improving
multi
modal
demand
for
these
facilities
and
then
wayfinding.
L
How
can
we
encourage
people
who
don't
typically
go
to
these
facilities
to
find
them
and
then
access
to
their
communities
as
well,
public
Wi-Fi
I
believe
Westford
has
public
Wi-Fi
at
the
spot,
but
other
communities
have
not
invested
in
a
particular
public
Wi-Fi
access
at
the
bus
stop
and
given
the
frequency
of
bus
services.
It's
it's
definitely
a
public
benefit
to
have
awareness
as
to
where
the
where
the
bus
is
so
you
can
track
how
long
it's
going
to
be
as
you're
waiting
out
in
in
particularly
inclement
weather.
L
Shelters
are
also
part
of
that
weather
equation
and
there's
several
existing
facilities.
That
would
benefit
from
shelters,
so
there's
opportunities
to
make
investments
in
these
existing
Park
and
Ride
Lots,
then
Paving
and
lighting
being
additional
attributes
that
have
numerous
benefits.
We
realize
that
storm
water
and
and
the
like
and
maintenance
varies
depending
on
the
level
of
demand
and
the
cost
to
get
these
paved.
But
in
terms
of
striping,
you
can
maximize
more
capacity
within
the
lot.
L
If
you
had
striping
available
to
you,
bicycle
pedestrian
access
already
mentioned
how
important
that
could
be
particularly
for
those
more
residential
communities.
If
you
could
bike
to
a
location
and
then
catch
Transit,
that's
a
a
key
benefit
for
getting
those
achieving
those
multimodal
Mobility
targets.
L
L
But
it's
a
characteristic
that
has
been
identified
in
National
literature
to
say
you
want
to
have
that
sweet
spot
between
40
and
70
percent
so
that
your
asset
is
utilized,
but
yet
it's
not
ex
not
utilized
to
the
degree
that
it's
that
we
don't
have
space
if
you
were
to
show
up.
So
we
want
to
monitor
that
data
over
time
and
to
expand
in
locations
if
that
occupancy
exceeds
that
70
percent.
L
Now
we're
getting
into
the
proposed
facilities.
This
study
used
previous
works
that
the
RPC
has
conducted
over
many
many
years
to
identify
where
certain
facilities
would
benefit
the
community.
If
we
look
at
this
list,
just
from
start
to
finish
here
go
quickly
through
them
is
that
we
have
the
South
End
multimodal
Center.
M
L
Going
under
a
current
feasibility
study
that
should
be
concluded
very
shortly
very
soon
and
that
that
will
give
us
insight
as
to
how
that
facility
might
operate
as
a
intercept
or
a
parking
facility
close
to
Burlington.
Then
we
have
South
Burlington
us
7
and
I-80
189
at
the
Route
7
intersection
at
the
old
Kmart.
Now
Hannaford
lot,
that's
one
that
was
put
on
the
books
many
many
years
ago,
and
it
has
some
some
challenges:
we'll
discuss,
South
Burlington
at
Exit
14..
Many
of
you
might
recall
a
a
plan
that
was
done.
L
Maybe
in
2012
that
was
looking
at
a
scoping
study
for
a
pretty
significant
sized
parking
facility
in
the
location
behind
the
Doubletree.
That's
still
in
the
in
the
works,
or
at
least
it's
been
identified
as
a
highly
desirable
location
to
intercept
those
that
might
be
traveling
off
the
interstate
before
they
get
into
the
downtown
core,
but
also
potentially
as
remote
parking
for
the
hospital
and
the
and
the
University.
L
Now
Williston
already
has
the
exit
12
that's
under
construction,
however,
the
Taft
Corners
location,
particularly
given
the
density
that's
being
constructed
for
residential
unemployment,
all
around
the
Finney
Crossing
area
and
Northeast
quadrant
of
the
Taft
Corners.
That
location
has
been
investigated
and
the
RPC
in
the
town
are
currently
conducting
or
will
short
really
do.
A
feasibility
study
on
that
particular
location.
L
Then
Shelburne
is
one
where
there's
another
opportunity,
where
an
existing
Park
and
Ride
facility
for
the
train
station
in
downtown
Shelburne
could
lend
itself
to
being
a
parking
facility
for
other
uses,
and
we
would
recommend
that
being
investigated.
Further
Richmond
Jonesville
there's
the
idea
around
the
route
to
Cochrane
Road
intersection,
there's
kind
of
de
facto
Lots
today
the
town's
interested
in
pursuing
this
further
for
investigation.
And
how
can
it
be?
L
Maybe
a
formal
facility
at
least
have
multiple
uses
there,
maybe
not
so
much
commuter,
but
it
also
could
just
be
recreational
consolidation
of
trips
and
then
lastly,
Colchester
at
Exit,
17.
v-trans
has
had
a
scoping
study
completed
for
that
location
as
part
of
the
overall
interchange
works
and
investigation,
and
at
this
point
in
time
it's
proposed
that
there
will
be
two
facilities
and
rather
close
proximity
around
exit
17..
L
It's
maybe
a
confusing
term,
and
rather,
let's
think
about
it
in
this
Continuum
is
that
we
have
these
intercept
facilities
and
whether
we
use
that
term
or
not,
but
we
have
this
location
on
the
left
hand,
side
of
the
arrow,
that's
typically
adjacent
to
building
more
dense
locations.
The
origin
is
short
distance
trips.
Predominantly
you
hop
on
transit
to
maybe
make
that
last
mile.
L
Maybe
it's
a
micro,
Mobility
mode,
a
scooter
or
a
bike
share
if
we
get
those
back
again,
but
also
walking
to
your
job
versus
on
the
right
right
hand,
side
of
the
arrow,
it's
the
park
and
ride
side
of
it,
and
this
is
closer
On.
The
Origin
side
of
the
trip,
it's
typically
closer
to
your
housing
and
it's
typically
more
consistent
with
lower
density
housing.
But
it's
also
willing
that
people
consolidate
trips
just
by
carpooling
or
they
can
get
on
a
Transit.
L
Now
this
work
is
also
been
informed
by
the
travel
Behavior.
That's
that's
ensued
over
the
last
few
years,
as
I've
mentioned,
what
that's
reinforced
to
us
is
that
we
need
to
track
behavior
on
more
of
an
ongoing
continual
basis,
and
then
that
will
give
us
the
insight
to
say
when
is
behavior.
Changing
we've
been
monitoring
parking
demand
at
the
at
the
park
and
ride
slots.
L
The
parking
occupancy
at
an
inconsistent
but
a
periodic
basis,
basically
once
a
year,
but
it
hasn't
been
the
same
time
at
every
lot
and
I
realize
that's
a
real
challenge
depending
on
timing
and
staff,
but
it
would
be
our
recommendation
that
we
would
try
to
complete
occupancy
counts
at
similar
times
during
those
years,
so
that
we
can
try
to
have
a
more
consistent
basis
to
understand
how
Trends
are
changing
at
the
actual
parking
facilities
themselves
now.
But
the
parking
facilities
themselves
are
more
of
a
downstream
effect.
L
Parking
demand
is
derived
by
those
who
are
working
and
living,
and
so
we
first
can
identify
data
that
census
typically
collects
for
us
to
understand
how
many
people
are
working
in
shenton
County.
How
many
people
are
traveling
to
Chittenden
County
from
outside
the
county,
how
many
people
are
doing
from
outside
the
county
to
outside
or
so
in,
in
the
county
to
outside
the
county?
So
employment
and
compute
commute
flows
are
very,
very
valuable
data
to
start
to
understand.
Are
we
seeing
some
changes
in
that
Trends?
Now
that's
a
little
bit
of
a
lag.
L
It's
an
annual
Census
Data
product
Now
versus
we
could
have
Transit
ridership
and
that
could
be
computed
monthly
based
on
GMT
ridership
data,
and
if
the
RPC
starts
to
have
a
dashboard
that
could
say,
hey
Transit
data
Transit
ridership
is
up.
We
need
to
start
monitoring
our
park
and
ride,
lots
and
understand
how
that
Transit
demand
might
manifest
into
some
consolidation
of
trips.
L
This
will
give
us
a
really
good
sense
to
say:
if
those
garages
start
getting
occupied,
then
people
are
going
to
be
more
likely
to
take
a
transit
or
to
take
carpooling
on
the
Upstream
end
of
things
and
then
lastly,
remote
work
and
travel
modes
are
annual
data
that
again
can
be
tracked
by
other
type
of
survey
instruments,
but
also
Census
Data
products.
So
we
would
recommend
that
the
RPC
start
to
investigate.
How
can
we
ingest
this
data
and
start
to
develop
a
dashboard
that
would
be
available
to
all
all
parties
and
managed
by
the
RPC?
L
Now
my
last
slide
here
and
I
realize
I've
been
talking
a
lot,
but
I
want
to
take
any
questions
after
this
is.
This
is
a
slide
that
just
simply
kind
of
consolidates
a
lot
of
what
I've
just
articulated
already.
Is
that
what
is
the
proposed
facility?
What
municipality,
what
type
of
facility
It
generally
is
the
number
of
parking
spaces,
as
well
as
the
time
frame
for
some
opportunity
for
some
work.
There
are
a
few
that
are
more
opportunistic,
like
Shelburne
and
Charlotte.
If
the
towns
really
want
to
pursue
those,
then
let's,
let's
investigate
them.
L
L
I'm,
not
sure,
what's
happening
right
in
that
area
at
this
point,
but
maybe
there's
an
opportunity
to
tie
that
in
then
we
have
more
opportunistic
and
long,
such
as
the
Barnes
Avenue
in
route
15.,
and
that's
really
contingent
on
whether
increased
frequency
of
Transit
service
occurs
along
Route
15
and
then
at
that
point
it
may
make
sense
to
invest
in
type
in
in
a
parking
facility.
Other
than
that
we
have
implement
the
actions
from
the
multimodal
center
feasibility
study.
L
So
that's
the
end
of
the
presentation
that
I
have
we
covered
a
lot
in
terms
of
where
we
were
going
some
of
our
goals.
Why
we
didn't
canvas
a
whole
bunch
of
new
facilities?
It's
just
simply.
The
demand
hasn't
been
there
for
parking
rides,
and
at
this
point
we've
said
there
are.
There
are
investments
that
make
sense
both
in
terms
of
physical
Investments,
that
I've
mentioned
in
the
existing
facilities
and
then
more
of
these
planning
Investments.
L
L
D
So
thanks
I
really
appreciate
you
know
for
more
than
ever
before,
the
sort
of
the
blurring
of
what
is
a
park
and
ride.
And
what
is
something
else-
and
it's
probably
most
obvious
to
me,
because
at
one
end
of
town,
sort
of
we've
got
the
what
has
been
historically
a
park
and
ride
at
our
one,
Transit
Hub
and
then
the
whole
other
end
of
Jonesville
is,
you
know,
could
be
used
for
car
sharing.
But
one
of
the
interests
is
to
address
a
recreational
parking
pressure.
D
That's
just
really
funky
in
that
whole
area,
and
maybe
it
doesn't
matter
and
that's
why
I
appreciate
putting
them
together
because
putting
them
on
one
map
is
helpful
and
I
appreciate
like
what
it
depends
on
the
lens
you
use
like.
That
is
not
a
probably
a
great
commuter
lot,
but
there's
high
demand
and
pressure
to
alleviate
parking
pressure
and
from
the
neighboring
properties.
So
anyway,
thanks
for
the
work
on
this
I
really
like
the
document.
L
F
L
L
Yeah,
we
really
need
secure
bike
parking.
If
that's
going
to
be
the
the
mode
which
e-bikes
I
forget
the
National
Data.
It
was
something
that
the
average
trip
is
over
five
miles
and
and
that's
really
that
that
extends
the
commuter
shed
significantly
to
these
Lots
in
a
much
more
accessible
way.
So
I
think
that's
what
reinforces
probably
the
need
for
that
secure
bicycle
parking.
B
C
L
F
F
K
Let's
Make
a
note
that
you
know
the
report
was
linked
in
the
agenda
I
believe
or
in
your
packet,
and
you
know,
tonight's
meeting
is
just
informational
and
actually
I'll
be
back
next
month
to
seek
adoption
of
the
plan.
But
in
the
meantime,
if
you
haven't
had
a
chance
to
take
a
look
at
it,
please
do
so
and
and
send
along
any
comments.
You
have
you
know
within
the
next
week
or
so,
if
possible,.
L
N
N
The
parking
I
believe
Jeff
Carr
brought
it
up,
maybe
a
year
or
two
ago,
the
289
Corridor
at
117
or
River
Road.
As
some
of
you
may
know,
it
there's
an
area
where
289
comes
down
there.
That
is
large
enough
to
accommodate
parking.
Jeff
had
inquired
about
that,
maybe
a
year
or
third
trial.
You
may
remember
it
that,
and
also
at
Exit
12,
the
barracks
I
used
to
work
out
of
is
going
to
be
moving
to
just
south
of
Interstate
89
on
the
hill
across
from
what's
called
hurricane
Lane.
N
L
N
And
Ride:
that's
really
Jonathan
the
first
part,
maybe
a
year
or
two
ago,
I
don't
know
if
you
were
in
tenants
at
the
meeting.
We
were
talking
about
parking
and
you
know
Park
and
Ride
options
in
the
county
and
Jeff
Carr.
One
of
the
board
members
brought
up
the
fact
that
some
of
the
289
Corridor
had
areas
where
parking
could
probably
be
available
for
commuters,
especially
right
at
the
end
of
289,
where
it
comes
through
at
117.,
gotcha
exit,
12.
L
Yeah
well
so
I
think
there's
an
opportunity
if,
if
a
you
know
either
Essex
in
that
case
would
like
to
bring
up
a
new
lot.
I
think
there's
opportunities
here
and
we
could
investigate
it
from
how
it
kind
of
fits
within
the
the
travel
sheds.
So
if
that's
a,
if
that's
a
comment
that
that
you
want
to
bring
up
kind
of
officially
here
to
say,
hey
look
at
these.
N
L
Right
yep,
so
the
other
end
of
it
yep
all
right,
well,
I'll
see
what
we
can
do
to
maybe
make
that
comment
in
there
and
to
see
whether
it
kind
of
we
we
went
through
more
or
less
an
informal.
We
have
a
bunch
of
data
that
shows
where
people
live
and
where
they
work
and
try
to
look
at
how
Park
and
rides
intersected
those
commute
patterns,
and
so
we
can
see
whether
there
was
an
obvious
gap
for
that
particular
location,
but
I
think
just
anecdotally.
It
does
make
sense.
L
There's
a
lot
of
commuter
traffic
right
through
that
intersection,
so
the
exit,
12
location.
Clearly,
that
is
the
proposed
Park
and
Ride.
That's
under
construction
and
I,
forget
offhand
and
maybe
Amy
or
someone
else
knows
exactly
how
many
parking
spaces,
but
it's
it's
a
substantial
number
146
spaces
is
what
I
have
at
the
exit:
12,
Park
and
Ride.
That's.
C
N
M
M
B
G
Great
thank
you
good
evening.
Everyone
nice
to
see
you
all
again
we're
almost
an
hour
into
this.
If
you
need
to
stand
up
and
stretch
your
legs
by
all
means,
please
do
I
have
some
slides
to
share
with
you
might
take
about
15
minutes
again.
My
name
is
Brian.
Davis
and
I
am
one
of
the
senior
Transportation
planners
and
let
me
find
the
share
button
because
I
am
in
Zoom,
not
teams.
G
G
Quick
crosswalk
of
the
trip
I'm
going
to
take
you
on
today,
really
just
to
provide
an
update
on
the
regional,
active
transport.
Transportation
Plan
update,
I'm,
going
to
focus
on
the
analyzes
that
we
did
and
in
your
package,
I
shared
the
sort
of
preliminary
draft
bicycle
Network
and
pedestrian
Network
I
quickly
wanted
to
show
the
the
committee
we've
got
for
this
project
and
highlight
the
TAC
members
that
are
serving
on
this.
So
you
do
have
some
representation
on
board
here
and
they've
been
very
helpful
throughout
this
process.
G
Now
the
ATP
is
incorporated
into
the
Metropolitan
Transportation
plan,
which
is
underway.
Currently
we
update
these
generally
every
five
years
or
so
beginning
in
the
early
90s,
and
you
know
we're
doing
the
active
Transportation
plan
because
it
helps
our
local
municipalities,
the
state
our
country
made
our
climate
energy
goals.
It
promotes
physical
health,
it's
cost
effective.
It
provides
another
way
for
people
to
access
the
the
places
that
they
need
to
go.
G
So
it
is
an
important
plan
for
us
to
do
as
a
part
of
that
long-range
Transportation
plan
that
there's
sort
of
four
four
major
steps
here
and
they
align
with
the
major
committee
meetings
that
that
were
have.
We
keep
the
project
off
in
March
spent
the
summer
doing
these
analyzes,
which
I'll
run
through,
came
up
with
the
recommendations
really
recently,
and
then
the
next
step
that
will
wrap
up
in
this
fall
is
that
prioritization
of
the
recommendations.
G
G
The
highest
proportion
of
adults
over
64
years
old
are
in
South,
Burlington
and
Shelburne,
as
well
as
the
northern
part
of
Burlington.
That's
the
the
darker
colors.
You
can
see
there.
The
share
of
older
adults
in
Chittenden
County
has
been
on
the
rise
growing
from
about
13
of
the
population
in
2013
to
16.
In
2019.,
we
held
a
listening
session
with
members
of
AARP
Vermont
and
received
great
insights
from
them
on
their
experiences,
walking
and
biking
in
the
county.
G
As
older
adults,
households
with
no
vehicles
available
are
mostly
concentrated
in
Burlington
Winooski
and
South
Burlington
and
there's
some
areas.
You
know
outlying
towns
of
Colchester,
Essex
and
Shelburne.
Active
Transportation
access
is
especially
important
in
communities
where
low
vehicle
access
is
prevalent.
G
Key
takeaways
Chittenden
County's
population
grew
if
you
read
your
ecos
report
through
7.5
percent
from
2010
to
2020
99
of
those
new
residents
identify
as
black
indigenous
or
people
of
color,
who
now
make
up
11
of
the
County's
population.
There's
limited
data
available
for
the
county
related
specifically
to
pedestrian
and
bicycle
traffic,
stops
or
violations.
However,
it's
a
common
problem
in
communities
across
the
country
collecting
data
on
this
would
be
prudent
and
we're
trying
to
do
more
of
that
at
a
state
level
as
well.
G
G
Moving
on
to
the
next
analysis,
a
level
of
traffic
stress
helps
us
identify
appropriate
bicycle
facilities
that
are
comfortable
for
people
of
all
ages
and
abilities.
This
we
call
it.
The
LTS
value
depends
on
the
number
of
traffic
Lanes.
The
traffic
speeds,
the
traffic
volumes,
whether
or
not
there's
a
bicycle
facility.
Is
it
protected?
How
wide
is
it
and
this
map
here?
The
the
green
lines
indicate
low
stress
facilities
and
roadways,
and
the
red
are
higher
higher
stress
routes.
G
Now
that
LTS
feeds
into
this
bicycle
network
analysis,
it's
one
of
those
main
steps
in
the
BNA,
which
is
the
bicycle
network.
Analysis,
is
a
way
to
measure
how
effectively
people
can
connect
to
destinations
by
bike
on
those
comfortable,
low
stress
routes
that
DNA
algorithm
evaluates
each
street
and
trail
to
measure
how
those
factors
the
speeds,
the
volumes
bike
facility
type
affects
the
the
stress
level
of
riders.
It
looks
then
looks
at
all
the
destinations
within
the
biking
distance.
That's
that
block
to
block
connectivity
and
then
looks
at
sort
of
the
destinations.
G
And
so
you
can
see
sort
of
the
the
colors
here,
the
darker
ones,
the
black
and
the
purple,
and
the
metro
area
are
the
ones
that
are
more
connected.
The
lighter
colored
ones
are
the
ones
that
are
less
connected
based
on
this
analysis.
So
this
is
the
county-wide
picture.
We
wanted
to
dive
a
little
bit
deeper,
so
we
came
up
with
two
different
scenarios
to
look
at
one
of
those
is
the
root
2
Corridor
and
another
is
an
equity
analysis
or
environmental
justice
analysis.
G
G
And
so
you
sort
of
see
the
before
and
after
the
before
on.
The
left
is
sort
of
that.
Just
that
standard,
B,
A
analysis
that
we
did
if
we
made
root
2
a
lower
stress
quarter
and
we
took
into
account
that
new,
walking
and
biking
bridge
at
Exit
14
as
long
as
as
well
as
some
of
those
other
projects
that
are
in
the
works,
and
you
can
see
the
impact
that
would
have
if
that
Corridor
were
turned
into
a
lower
stress
route.
G
The
equity
scenario
we
identified
areas
based
on
race,
poverty
levels
and
commute
mode
share.
We
selected
all
of
those
high
stress
links
in
those
particular
areas
ran
that
BNA
analysis
again,
and
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
these
are
feasible
in
real
world
constraints,
just
to
make
sure
that
it
is
something
that
is
attainable.
You
know
so
not
just
sort
of
making
things
up
as
we
go
along,
but
what?
What
are
on
the
books
for
plans
what's
affordable?
G
G
This
sort
of
shows
how
this
work
is
done.
You
determine
those
pairs.
You
draw
a
straight
line,
you
sort
of
run
this
calculated
index.
You
run
it
over
and
over
using
a
straight
line.
It's
not
sort
of
the
specific
route
that
people
would
take,
but
it's
a
straight
line.
Looking
at
whether
or
not
those
connections
exist,
there's
a
Decay
factor
that
helps
us
understand
how
far
out
from
that
route,
people
would
go
and
highlights
those
different
destinations.
G
So
when
we
do
that
in
our
area,
the
red
shading,
the
darker
red
higher
density,
higher
trip
potential
in
theirs
areas,
you
can
see
as
we
get
further
out
in
the
county.
That's
a
potential
decreases
a
little
bit.
We
might
suspect
where
that's
happening
in
the
county
right,
Burlington,
metro
area-
and
we
combine
this
with
the
bicycle
network
analysis-
to
identify
better
routes
for
bicycling
along
those
Tire
potential
corridors.
G
We
did
a
similar
analysis
for
walking
your
sort
of
chart
on
the
top
here,
the
Burlington
area,
because
there's
so
many
destinations
that
are
on
that
pedestrian
scale.
It's
sort
of
masked
everything
else
outside
in
the
county,
so
the
consultant
applied
a
logarithmic
rescaling
Factor
to
sort
of
get
at
where
those
other
potential
walking
areas
could
be,
and
so
you
can
see.
G
G
Taking
that
another
step,
you
know
this
is
useful
to
some
degree,
but
we
chose
two
different
communities
to
do
a
more
localized
effort
to
see
what
would
happen
there.
So
we
chose
Milton
and
South
Burlington
to
look
at
some
particular
investments
in
those
communities.
We
chose
Milton
and
South
Burlington
because
they're
two
of
the
fastest
growing
communities
in
the
state,
according
to
Census
Data,
both
are
home
to
populations
historically
excluded
from
the
planning
process
and
neither
hasn't
adopted
comprehensive,
walk
by
plan.
G
Although
those
modes
are
recognized
and
supported
in
other
planning
documents
by
local
committees,
so
the
work
is
happening,
but
I
wanted
to
call
out
that
they
don't
have
official
plans
yet
ran
the
trip
potential
for
those
origin
destination
pairs.
These
two
maps
in
particular,
are
the
composite
scores.
We
do
have
separate
maps
for
the
specific
origin
destination
Pairs
and
there's
even
within
pairs
that
have
a
similar
variable
such
as
Transit,
it's
interesting
to
see
where
those
hot
red
pieces
move
around
based
on
those
pairs.
G
The
final
analysis
that
we
did
is
an
unpaved
Trail
analysis.
So
we
wanted
to
see,
can
unpaved
trails
fill
a
gap
within
that
active
Transportation
Network
as
sort
of
a
contingency
option,
and
it
may
be
constrained
conditions
where
paved
routes
aren't
feasible?
Maybe
there
are
other
issues
within
a
roadway
Corridor.
Maybe
there
are
places
where
people
are
already
walking
and
biking
along
areas
to
connect
places
that
aren't
on
that
traditional
Transportation
Network.
G
G
So
it
shows
some
of
these
Pockets.
These
are
more
Trail
networks.
In
some
of
the
outlying
towns,
I
was
hoping
for
a
little
bit
more
connections
between
towns,
rather
than
sort
of
these
localized
efforts
helpful
to
see
but
again,
based
on
that
Strava
data
that
we
used.
This
is
what
came
out
so
we've
got
Sunny
Hollow
trails
in
Colchester,
there's
some
pockets
of
activity
in
Richmond
in
Hinesburg
as
well,
and
so
those
are
the
four
sort
of
backend
data
analysis
that
we
did,
while
all
that's
happening.
In
the
background.
G
Over
the
summer
we
were
putting
ourselves
out
there
to
understand
the
public
perception
of
that
we
did
use
some.
The
traditional
methods,
like
the
online
map,
where
we
got
over
300
comments
from
that
people,
were
sending
me
emails
about
the
things
they'd
like
to
see,
but
we
also
did
we
hosted
listening
sessions
of
particular
groups
that
we
wanted
to
hear
their
experiences
walking
and
biking.
We
wanted
to
really
understand
what
they
wanted
to
see
in
that.
So
that
was
a
really
a
new
for
us
to
try.
G
It
was
interesting
and
it
would
be
great
to
follow
up
with
them
again,
as
we
come
out
with
these
draft
recommendations
to
say
thank
you
for
participating,
here's
what
we
heard:
here's
how
it
was
used
in
developing
this
recommendations.
What
do
you
think
General
themes?
These
are
probably
common
to
you.
People
wanted
to
see
more
connectedness.
They
wanted
some
safe
facilities
and
overall
maintenance
of
what's
already
out
there
today.
G
So
when
we
take
that
public
input
and
when
we
take
the
results
of
those
analyzes
that
we
did
and
we
look
at
the
planned
projects
and
the
tip
and
the
MTP,
we
can
come
up
with
this
infrastructure,
county-wide
Network.
In
addition
to
that,
there
will
also
be
program
and
policy
recommendations
which
you'll
see
there
and
the
Committees
the
Consultants
working
on
that
now.
So
in
your
packet,
you
have
some
information
about
this
draft
bicycle
Network
recommendation.
G
The
blue
is
the
proposed
Network
green.
Our
existing
facilities
there
hard
to
see
at
the
scale,
but
we
can
zoom
in
in
a
different
way
and
I
did
want
to
also
share
when
we
overlay
that
environmental
justice
Network,
you
can
see
that
the
the
yellow
lines
really
are
included
in
that
recommended
Network.
G
A
G
So
in
wrapping
up
my
part
of
the
evening,
the
next
steps
we're
going
to
finalize
these
recommendations,
we're
getting
the
committee
back
together
in
October
tool
design.
Our
consultant
is
going
to
come
up
with
the
prioritization
framework
and
come
out
with
the
prioritized
list
of
projects
for
the
regional
Network
and
then
we'll
have
a
final
plan
for
you
coming
up
pretty
soon.
That
will
be
into
adopted
into
the
Metropolitan
Transportation
plan.
G
B
G
D
Yeah
I'm,
sorry
to
talk
so
much
tonight,
but
I
I
was
I've
wrestled
in
Richmond,
with
the
difference
between
transportation
and
Recreation,
and
it's
kind
of
similar
to
the
the
parking
lot
conversation.
One
of
the
things
we've
seen,
especially
in
the
last
two
or
three
years,
is
this
sort
of
explosion
of
recreational
biking.
Mountain
biking,
demand
for
trails
and
mostly
you
know
my
subject
of
impression:
a
lot
of
what
I
see
on
the
road
is
not
people
commuting
or
it's
really
Recreation.
D
G
I
do
Bart
thank
you
for
bringing
that
up,
and
that
was
why
I
wanted
to
incorporate
that
unpaid
Trail
analysis.
I
was
like.
There's
got
to
be
an
opportunity
to
connect
these
places
so
that
it's
both
transportation
and
Recreation
and
in
looking
at
how
other
mpos
and
organizations
have
done.
This
I
came
across
the
term
Transportation,
so
it's
using
Trails
as
Transportation,
so
it
doesn't
have
to
be
one
of
the
other.
It
can
be
both
and
are
there
ways
for
people
instead
of
driving
to
trailheads?
G
G
And
I'm
sure
you've
seen
in
different
news
sources,
how
gravel
riding
is
sort
of
that
new
big
thing
in
Vermont,
where
people
go
drive,
Park
and
then
bike
the
gravel
roads
back
roads
and
then
come
back
into
town,
and
you
know
it's
bringing
in
a
lot
of
dollars
to
local
communities.
The
state's
offering
those
outdoor
recreation
grants
to
develop
that.
So
it
is,
you
know
people
are
paying
attention
to
that.
B
Next
on
the
agenda
is
our
committee
review
and
volunteers,
and
since
it's
an
action,
I
was
just
going
to
highlight
the
the
ones
that
have
been
fulfilled
or
are
still
empty,
but
since
we
have
to
vote
on
it,
I'll
read
who's
on
the
various
committees,
so
that
we
all
know
exactly
what's
happening,
the
we
have
the
egg.
We
have
our
outside
board
member
appointments
and
for
agriculture
we
have
Tom
Eaton,
who
is
with
us
tonight,
socioeconomic
housing
that
has
been
filled
now.
B
F
B
The
slot
as
member
but
there's
there
still
is,
you
know,
a
need
in
the
community
if
anybody
knows
it
for
an
alternate
to
conservation
and
environmental
for
the
finance
and
moving
on
to
the
standard
ones.
It's
the
finance
committee,
the
that's
the
vice
chair,
which
is
Bard,
and
we
have
also
then
Chris
Shaw
so
and
Jeff
Carr
are
the
members.
B
The
board
development
committee
actually
has
one
opening
yet
because
we
can
have
the
past
chair
and
up
to
four
other
board
members.
So
we
have
Michael
Brian
from
the
past
chair
who
is
currently
will
be
chair
of
the
board
development
committee,
Dan
Karen
from
Essex
Junction
myself
from
Jericho
Jeff
Carr
from
Shelburne
and,
as
I
said,
there's
one
opening.
If
anybody
still
wants
to
get
excited
about
all
the
different
things
that
the
board
development
committee
does
Catherine.
B
B
B
Chris
Shaw
will
be
as
Vice
chair
of
the
executive
committee
will
be
chair
of
the
unified
upwp
committee,
and
then
we
have
John
Cercone
from
Shelburne
Michael
Bissonnet
of
Hinesburg
Jackie,
Murphy,
Colchester
and,
as
I
said,
there's
room
for
one
more
member.
Anybody
gets
excited
about.
You
know
giving
away
money,
I
mean
that's
the
thing
that
John
always
told
me.
He
said
that
it's
really
that's
a
fun
committee
to
be
on
because
you
get
to
give
away
money
so
think
about
it.
If
you
still
got
time
in
your
schedules,.
B
B
That's
it:
that's
it
yeah.
The
transportation
advisory
committee
is
one
board
member
and
that's
Barbara
Elliott
of
Huntington
the
tech
interest
groups.
They
are
all
filled.
We
have
elderly
from
Bob
hennenberger
bike,
ped
is
Jonathan,
Weber
rail
is
Mary,
Ann,
Michaels,
environmental
is
Richard
watts
and
disabled
is
Adam.
West,
Wexler
and
business
is
Sam
Anderson.
B
The
planning
advisory
committee
is
has
one
as
a
board,
one
board
member
and
that's
Wayne
Howe
from
Jericho
the
long
range
planning
committee.
Although
the
work
has
started,
it
still
continues
so
there's
it
can
have
three
to
six
board
members
and
so
there's
still
an
opportunity
to
join
that,
but
currently
it's
Max
Schindler
from
Burlington
Abby
leithing
from
manuski
Tracy,
Delphia,
Essex,
Andy,
Watts,
Williston,
Dana,
Hanley
from
Sherlock
and
so
I
said
still
an
opening.
If
anybody's
interested
clean
water
advisory
committee.
B
B
Yeah,
that's
right.
You
know
we
got
to
sell
this.
That's
right!
The
we
need
one
board
member
on
the
ad
hoc
brownfields
advisory
committee.
Otherwise
the
committee
is
Sam
Anderson
from
gibc
gbic.
Excuse
me:
Matt
Vaughn
from
lcbp
Samantha
Dunn
from
Burlington
cedo
John,
rusher,
City,
winuski,
Dr,
Pablo,
Bose,
UVM,
Sam,
Arnold,
chcb,
Lori,
Stafford,

ex-officio,
Sarah,
Palmer,
Bartlett,
Vermont,
DEC,
ex-officio,
Christian,
bailing
EPA
ex
officio,
and
then
our
board
member,
so
I
need
a
board
member
here.
B
Will
Chris
is
doing
multiple
jobs,
ad
hoc
and
have
all
hazards
mitigation,
Plan,
update
committee,
that's
Chris,
Shaw
from
Burlington
from
South
Burlington.
Excuse
me,
and
then
we
have
our
Equity
advisory
committee,
which
currently
is
Michael
Brian,
Winooski,
Jackie,
Murphy,
Colchester,
Elaine,
Haney,
Essex,
Junction
and
Charlie
Baker
Amazon
and
Brian
Davis's
staff
and
the
community
members
will
be
are
to
be
determined
after
the
meetings
that
are
being
held
right
now
with
the
participation.
B
B
B
F
We
have
before
you
move
on
I
just
want
to
add
that
this
was
an
opportunity
when
I
first
came
on
the
board
for
me
to
volunteer
and
get
on
these
committees,
so
I'm
going
to
encourage
any
of
our
new
members
to
take
a
close
look
at
some
of
these
openings
and
see
if
there
was
anything
that
tickles
your
interest,
because
this
is
a
great
way
to
get
engaged
and
participate.
Thank
you.
B
Well,
not
only
is
it
oh
I'm
frozen,
oh
well,
and
not
only
is
it
a
good
way
to
get
engaged,
but
it's
a
good
way
to
know
meet
all
your
other

You
know
board
members
because
I've
been
on
the
board
with
development
committee,
since
it
was
started,
and
you
really
get
to
know
other
members
of
the
board.
B
Much
more
to
you
know,
chat
about,
and
particularly
if
you're
looking
for
the
office
or
changing
laws
or
thinking
these
programs
that
we're
putting
on
engage
people
and
to
know
what
you
know
or
the
art
does,
and
things
like
that.
So
it
really
is
opportunity.
That's
that's
the
point.
So
thank
you
for
the
to
vote.
C
I'll
I'll
at
least
start
off
yeah.
Anybody
else
who
was
in
attendance
wants
to
jump
in,
but
in
the
board
packet.
I
guess,
rather
than
me,
talk
to
you
for
10
minutes.
We
have
the
summary
of
what
came
out
of
the
September
10th
Workshop
and
we
really
got
great
attendance
from
the
community
24
folks
with
diverse
experiencees
and
backgrounds
came
that
Saturday
morning
and
you
can
kind
of
go
through
that.
We
talked
about
what
our
characteristics
of
effective
groups.
C
We
had
a
couple
training
sessions
that
we've
told
you
about
previously
are
coming
up
in
September
October
also
invited
those
community
members
that
were
interested
in
this
to
participate
in
those
trainings
with
us,
and
and
at
the
end
of
that
you
see
all
the
attendees,
so
I
don't
know
if
there's
any
questions
or
if
people
want
to
provide
any
feedback.
Those
are
that
were
there,
those
that
weren't.
C
C
That
makes
it
that
much
sweeter
when
you
leave
I
know,
but
so
you
know
Regina
departed
about
a
month
ago
now,
since
I've
promoted
Taylor,
but
we've
been
kind
of
digging
into
what
we
need
to
finish.
The
plans,
the
regional
plan,
the
Metropolitan
Transportation
plan,
the
comprehensive
Economic
Development
strategy,
and
we
were
starting
to
really
I
guess:
I'll,
just
use
the
phrase
stress
ourselves
out
a
ton
so
I'm
just
and
there
were
issues
kind
of
not
all
the
issues,
but
a
good
number
of
them.
C
I
bulleted
out
here,
just
not
having
enough
time
to
address
equity
in
the
way
we
should.
There
is
a
transportation
Equity
framework
coming
out
from
be
trans.
We
don't
have
all
the
energy
analysis
that
the
Department
of
Public
Services
promising
Us
in
the
next
few
months,
so
we're
really
just
feeling
very
squeezed
by
our
schedule
to
try
to
get
this
done
in
for
the
springtime
and
so
we're
proposing
more
of
a
staggered
schedule.
C
B
B
C
C
C
I,
appreciate
that
and
he's
already
digging
in
but
yeah
between
the
two
of
us
I
think
we're
kind
of
doing
three
people's
jobs
right
now
still,
and
so
we
have
an
advertisement
out
to
replace
Taylor
now
for
a
planner
position
that
we
are
going
to
start
interviews
on
next
week
and
I
think
we
got
a
good
crop
of
candidates.
I
think
we
will
have.
C
You
know
maybe
not
as
good
as
Taylor,
but
somebody
to
replace
him
that
you
know
he'll
train
to
be
better
than
him
so
and
then
the
equity
manager
we've
kind
of
touched
on
that
a
couple
times.
You
know
we
advertised
for
that
earlier
in
August
got
a
decent
crop
of
candidates.
You
know
never
as
many
as
I
would
have
hoped
we're
interviewing
the
last
two
or
three
right
now.
C
If
you
know
somebody
who's,
just
you
know,
might
be
interested
in
working
in
our
business
office
and
keeping
track
of
the
dollars
and
Grant
requirements.
Forest
and
Amy
would
really
appreciate
that
we
have
a
few
applicants
and
you
know
we'll
start
interviews.
You
know
in
a
week
or
two,
but
if
you
know
anybody,
you
know,
you
know,
maybe
maybe
even
out
of
high
school
with
just
an
interest.
You
know
in
you
know
if
they
can
balance
their
checkbook.
C
C
C
We
have
just
signed
the
contract
with
DEC
to
become
the
clean
water
service
provider,
they're,
providing
some
front-end
money
and
so
we'll
be
working
with
groups
in
the
the
direct
to
Lake
Basin.
If
you
may
recall
that
we
just
took
we're
taking
on
responsibility
for
a
small
portion
of
Chittenden
County,
other
rpcs
have
responsibility
for
the
Winooski
Watershed
and
the
lamoille
Watershed,
so
we
have
kind
of
Charlotte
to
Milton,
including
Grand
Isle,
and
a
little
bit
into
Franklin
County,
the
direct
to
Lake
Watershed
that
where
Dan
is
managing
that.
F
C
So
don't
be
surprised
if
you
get
an
appointment
from
me.
I
will
try
to
send
you
an
appointment
whenever
that
meeting
is
whenever
we're
going
to
be
on
that,
your
your
community's
board,
so
heads
up
there
and
the
final
heads
up
is
just
to
start
you
thinking
about
legislative
breakfasts
priorities.
So
the
next
couple
meetings
will
have
agenda
topics
to
talk
about
priorities
for
the
next
legislative
session
and
what
we
want
to
talk
to
our
legislators
about
in
early
December.
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
Charlie.
Well,
given
that
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
committee
and
liaison
activities
and
reports
and
as
usual,
they're,
either
in
your
packet
or
digitally
available
on
site
on
the
site,
depending
on
your
choice
of
how
you
like
to
receive
them
and,
having
said
that,
it
says
adjournment
is
next.
