A small statement that I want to read so it's the chair of this board. I want to.

A

Say that I hope everyone is staying, healthy and safe. These are difficult.

A

Times upon us with no one, no, knowing the final impacts that it will create for.

A

All of us in our daily lives. I know we all have had some tie to this terrible.

A

Virus either with a family member, a co-worker, a friend and it has touched.

A

All of our lives, I have found some positive things during this pandemic and.

A

Has made us all slow down, spend more time with family at home and appreciate.

A

What we have the community will be starting the process of lifting the stay.

A

At home, in the upcoming weeks, I ask that everyone have patience and adhere to all.

A

The guidelines that are set for the community working together to keep.

A

Everyone, safe and healthy can help us all to get back to our normal daily.

A

Routines but I suspect we will all have a new norm in our lives as we move.

A

Forward, thank you. So the next item on the agenda is reports from officers.

A

And/Or committees and first one is citizens advisory committee. Sarah yeah.

B

I'm sure the citizens advisory committee met virtually and we looked at all the.

B

Things that are on this policy committees agenda and we recommended.

B

Approval of the items which will be up for a vote today, all right. Thank you.

A

Sarah, it's my understanding that we did not have a quorum for the technical.

A

Advisory committee is that correct, that's correct, so we know right. No.

C

Recommendations: okay, then we go to reports from the mpo staff coab. It's.

A

Slash 19 staff availability in calendar year, 2020 meeting schedule; okay,.

C

I wanted to let everybody know that we are available ryan and I are available.

C

The entire time we're working remotely the calendar schedule.

C

Will remain the same for the citizens, advisory committee, technical advisory.

C

Committee and the policy committee for the remainder of the year, we had one.

C

Cancellation in april for the policy committee- and we had a cancellation also.

C

For the citizens and the technical advisory committees at the end of march.

C

It was until we we acquired our zoom license now, we've acquired those will be.

C

Meeting continually the rest of the year, whether we have ever meet in person for.

C

The remainder of the year is a question. We don't know that, probably not so. The.

C

Assumption is that will be meeting virtually from now on, but ryan and I are.

C

Available any time you need us, you have our emails, I believe from the packet.

C

Distributions to you so please feel free to contact us at any time and we'll get.

C

Back with you immediately, if there's any questions, I'd be happy to answer those.

C

For you all right, thank you, patrick. um The next item is bloomington monroe.

A

County mpo bylaws update okay yeah, so really the only reason why this is in.

K

Here because, as you all know, the policy committee passed these bylaws at the.

K

March meeting- and this is just in here- to provide it the updated version in its.

K

Entirety and all the revisions in the packet for you, so you all have a copy of.

K

It alright comments, questions yeah, okay, meeting, none. The next item is the draft.

A

For the 2045 metropolitan transportation plan, okay, that's what what I wanted to.

C

Do was was let you know what our current schedule is: we're required the.

C

Bloomington mineral county metropolitan organization is required to.

C

Have a newly adopted or updated metropolitan transportation plan by the.

C

End of this calendar year, our intent is to have a plan complete and adopted for.

C

The policy committee, the second week of october, our current schedule is, is.

C

Actually on schedule, except for the public participation, we had two public.

C

Meetings in march, the first part of march, one in elseville and at town hall.

C

We had the second meeting, also at bloomington transit, downtown transfer,.

C

Center, they were sparsely attended, as in barely.

C

Attended, we had two additional meetings scheduled for april, both of those.

C

Meetings were canceled because of the cove at nineteen issue. We have two other.

C

Meetings, public meetings scheduled for august those are currently off right now,.

C

We will probably arrange those as facebook live and zoom type of public.

C

Participation meetings and then the remainder of our schedule will be the.

C

Same where we will, we currently have an 80 to 85 percent, complete draft right.

C

Now all the chapters which are complete and draft form are posted on our website.

C

For the metropolitan transportation plan, we will have two additional chapters.

C

Coming out this month and we anticipate having the plan, I would call it 95%.

C

Complete by the end of this month, the schedule like I said is, is we will will.

C

Present everything to the committee's to all three committees prior to the july.

C

Recess july we do not meet august. When we come back, we will have what I call a.

C

Total working draft of the document itself and then we will go through those.

C

With comments for all the committee's and do a 30-day public comment period.

C

And then we're looking for a recommendation.

C

Hopefully, favorably by the citizens, visor eeka mean the.

C

Advisory committee in september, at their september meetings and then we're.

C

Looking for a scheduled adoption by the policy committee in october, the second.

C

Week of october, and I can send to you the updated schedule the schedule is- has.

C

Been somewhat fluid because the köppen 19 was something that we didn't.

C

Anticipate obviously, but we've adjusted to the whole thing and we're still on.

C

Schedule for adoption in october of this year and I'll be.

C

Happy to answer any questions anybody may have pat. Can you tell me well first.

E

I just wanted to say: I've had a little bit more time to live with and review.

E

The the draft document it's an outstanding document- you you both have.

E

Done a wonderful job, you should really be proud of the work that that you've.

E

Put into it, it's very informative, it's very important document. I think we need.

E

To try and figure out some way to get more public participation, more people.

E

Aware of of all all of the work, that's being thought through through 2045, maybe.

E

That's kind of what is a stumper for people. You know, I can't think past.

E

Tomorrow, a little own 2045, but it's it's outstanding. So I did want to ask you you.

E

Said two additional chapters this month: what chapters are those we will have a.

C

Chapter on methodology- and we hope to have a chapter on future transportation.

C

Needs, I also have an executive summary written. The executive summary is fluid.

C

Because that depends a lot upon the public. Well, the public comments we get.

C

And also the comments from the technical advisory committee, citizens advisory.

C

Committee in the policy committee, so in an outline form, the executive summary is.

C

Out there, but it's behind the curtain, the methodology chapter will come out at.

C

The end of this month, and then the future transferred asian needs will also come out this month. Some of the things that we wrote.

C

Up to this point in time, such as financial forecast that well that.

C

Changed dramatically with a drop in vehicle, miles of travel and travel and.

C

And revenue receipts for gas, tax and and other sources, all of that has dropped.

C

Dramatically, but what will do is will consult with federal highway and the.

C

Indiana department of transportation on that chapter I mean our forecasts were.

C

Based on the best available information that we had up until roughly at the.

C

Middle of march, and we'll probably work with that- I hope that terry does that.

C

Answer your questions, I'm sorry I went on and on there no it does. I appreciate.

E

That thank you. Okay, hey pat! This is erica yeah, as you kind of mentioned. I.

I

Think you are way ahead of schedule, especially based on we're about yes, but.

I

I think it could be working when I just along the lines with projections and.

I

Things like that, I think it might be worth you me and ryan, getting together.

I

Maybe with some end up planning folks and talking through that I mean we might.

I

Based on the time we have available, we might be to extend your timeline a.

I

Little bit just so, we can maybe include the bigger picture about projections and.

I

I know the end, I knew snip we'll begin development, so maybe if we have an.

I

Opportunity to include some of that fuller discussion in in your mtp since.

I

It won't be updated again for another five years. It might be worth we're.

I

Checking into that, but we can talk more about that offline yeah, the the advice.

C

That we received from the indiana department of transportation is that.

C

Well, our last plan was updated in 2017 and that was very late in the cycle and.

C

The information that we received from them is that we are due for another.

C

Update here at the end of this calendar year, and then our anticipation is that.

C

We will be doing a what I would the update that we're doing this year is.

C

More of a policy orientation, the updates that we would do in two three years.

C

Probably three years would incorporate and the availability of all the census.

C

Data which would allow us to remodel and recalibrate our model for the urbanized.

C

Area, okay, so this is more like a violin, voluntary, okay! No! No! It's a mandatory.

C

Update according to the directive that we've got from okay, sarah here, a couple.

B

Of things, one is that members of the cac are already reviewing. Chapters of this.

B

Updated mtp, and I would hope that members of the policy committee will.

B

Begin to review this and give feedback to pat ryan so that they have they have.

B

Our ongoing input, I suspect that, given the nature of our isolation at this.

B

Point we won't have the same kind of robust citizen involvement in this mtp.

B

That we've had in previous mtps, so I think it is absolutely incumbent on.

B

Us to step up and give that feedback to staff that they sorely need. That's it.

B

For me, kate, I know you and your end up. Yes, so.

F

And I think what erika brought up sort of addressed it, but should we assume.

F

Then that the financial forecast chapter wouldn't be the best place for us to.

F

Start when paying, because they're going to be a lot of changes to that. Yes, I.

C

Plan based on the knowledge that we have currently right now, vehicle miles of.

C

Travel in monroe county are down somewhere.

C

Around I mean declined somewhere around 27 28 percent.

C

During the last 60 weeks, we don't know what the vehicle miles of travel have.

C

Done statewide we just know from monroe, county and and the monroe county data is.

C

Based on metadata from cell phone use, in other words, cell phones, traveling along.

C

The roadways- and we know that much given the decline in driving and vehicle miles.

C

Of travel, the assumption here is that people are not buying gas. People are not.

C

Renewing their license plates because bureau motor vehicles have been closed.

C

For quite some time or they're opening up, I believe on monday and a number of.

C

Other things have been put off so therefore we expect- or we anticipate a.

C

Hit on the revenue and and also with bloomington transit, lu ma has advised us.

C

That his ridership is declined. 90% that's 9 0 %. I don't know if it's.

C

Come back in the last week or two, but I kind of doubt it.

C

So with bloomington transits revenue being down and with what we anticipate.

C

Gasoline tax consumption taxes being down, we expect the revenue forecast to.

C

Change dramatically, at least for this calendar year and most likely in the.

C

Short term for the next 1 to 5 years, just because of the economic recession.

C

More than anything else in all of the current draft chapters, first of all,.

F

Thank you for that. That was very helpful and all of the draft chapters are on the.

F

City's website is there just there's a link down here? If you can see my cursor.

C

Right there yep yep they're, all they're, all right there we have the 2040 the.

C

Current 2040 metropolitan transportation plan is posted there and then all of the.

C

Draft jurors are posted there also, I believe.

C

There are ten chapters that are posted thus far. One of those is in acronyms, but.

C

But no there's a lot of meat and potatoes there. Posters, yes, public, wanted.

F

To take a look at anytime, they have access to that. Is that correct? Yes, yes,.

C

Absolutely absolutely yeah, and- and the one thing I want to emphasize two is one.

C

One thing: that's critically important for us: its staff, its the guiding.

C

Principles, these are your mission, vision statements and objectives, goals and.

C

Objectives those are already out there. We've had no comments up to this point.

C

In time on the what I would call the vision, statements or any of the goals.

C

And objectives, so we would ask particularly for this policy committee.

C

That you take a close examination of the guiding principles and please give us.

C

Your comments on those we know that there are several things that are out.

C

There that we as staff want to add, but we need directive leadership first from.

C

The policy folks, so there again just a few questions.

I

So, um regarding the draft documents that are out was there like some sort of them.

L

Announcement made to the public where those are available and how people might.

L

Provide comment, I don't know I will have to look in other words, you're. Looking.

C

For a press release, well I mean just asking: was there you know out on the.

I

Website with an ask like hey, these documents are available. You can provide.

I

Via email, sometimes that's received a little.

I

Different by the public than if you leave just say, these documents are available on our website, because they, I mean conceivably a lot of your documents.

I

Are available on the website and you're not really requesting you're, not really.

I

You're not asking for comment on, though something was there's something made to.

I

Differentiate the list of public, no, they can provide.

I

Meant to you all about these draft documents, we did that in the form of our.

C

Mailings for the citizens advisory committee and the technical and the.

C

Policy committee citizens advisory committee list is something like a.

C

Hundred and forty five names out there, we did it through that, but what we can.

C

Do is we can go back and make a make a press release if that would help and.

C

Then then, the other anticipation is that we will be doing a public survey of.

C

Transit station plan public survey- I'll- let ryan's speak about that- I was.

I

Just asking, if that were the case, and I think you already answered my second.

I

Question was it: was there survey and really I'm thinking about on down the.

I

Line or whatever, when you have to respond to the comments you receive just.

I

Trying to think through, you know how you all are capturing. You know those.

I

Comments and people are submitting them in written form. So I'm not saying you.

I

Have to do pressure, I was just trying to get an idea about, like you know how that.

I

Information for the public and then you said you are doing a survey so that.

I

Answered that question, and I had one oh, I guess this is along the same lines and.

I

Which I think the survey can sort of fulfill some of this, but have you have.

I

You all, or the committees considered given any thought to some sort of.

I

Auxilary public component- maybe something you normally wouldn't do in.

I

Light of the current situation, or was a survey intended to fulfill that role? No.

C

The survey was one role we haven't. We haven't formulated a plan on how to do.

C

The rest of the engagement, it would probably be in the form of a town hall.

C

Type of meeting of some type or another using facebook using facebook live with.

C

A zoom platform and we had preliminary discussions about it, done doing a town.

C

Hall type forum right now, it's difficult to get everybody's attention.

C

Much less anybody's attention, but we were her focus on doing that would be.

C

Heavily in august, and then also in september, just prior to.

C

The adoption of the plan itself- okay, perfect, thank you. Okay I'll, add a.

G

Question and comment: if that's okay, sure yeah. I appreciate the questions and.

G

About the public engagement side of things from mr. branum estate, and I.

G

Think yeah, it's worth continuing to think about. I know all of our april town.

G

Halls were cancelled. I do wonder if he's just trying something through zoom-in.

G

Facebook later this month and seeing how it goes, might not be a bad idea. I think.

G

It's I've mentioned this in the previous mpo politic meeting committee meeting as.

G

Well that I think for councilor, wilts and myself, it probably makes a lot of.

G

Sense to work with our council colleagues in the county and the city to.

G

Try to get the word out to our constituents and a lot of us have kind of 100 or 200 person, law and constituent email lists of people. We've interacted.

G

With over these over the years and things like that, the city council also.

G

Has a period with council reports at the beginning of our regular sessions and.

G

I'll make sure to highlight this next to go around, but especially as we hit the.

G

Public engagement period in august, it seems like that is going to be even more.

G

Crucial than it's sort of otherwise would have been since we missed out on.

G

Some engagement here in april, assuming you know, hopefully that things are they.

G

Were able to meet in person in august and kind of lead back to something of a.

G

Normal physical interaction by that point, but yeah I just wanted to.

G

Highlight that and make the case for everybody to use the avenues you have to.

G

Help highlight opportunities for public engagement and involvement in this.

G

Process as well, thanks yeah. No thank you. Thank you for the constituent last idea.

C

And also announcing at council meetings, mm-hmm, that's something we had not come.

C

Up with okay, the other questions or comments item, I I just like to add.

F

Thanks matt because I was just taking those two to make sure I give our our.

F

Council updates this week at our meeting can the county website may be linked to.

F

The city's page with the drafts- yes, yes, absolutely.

C

I'll check on that as well, then thanks yeah yeah. No, we can we'll have the.

C

Documentation I currently I'm not allowed to post on the on the county's.

C

Website but but we could make that available. Absolutely yes, yeah that'd be.

F

Great I'll I'll ask about it and put them in touch with you if they need anything. Okay, thank you great and I think I'm also pad. If you have it in a pdf file and send it.

A

To us, we can work with our it and they can put a link upload the file on our.

A

Website- okay, yes everything's in pdf, and I can send all that to you on monday.

C

Okay and then I'll get it put out there I'll talk to our it and get a link put.

A

On there, thank you definitely end up doing that great. um The next item is the.

A

2045 metropolitan transportation plan public survey and I think it would also.

K

Be a great idea to put this public survey on the monroe county website as.

K

Well, absolutely when it's completed next week or it's in.

K

Review stages right now, but it should go out to the three committees next week.

K

And- and it would be great if everyone on each of the committee's could send that.

K

To their entire networks, whether it be through constituent meetings, I mean what.

K

Have you, and that will be on not only our mpo mtp website but we'd, be happy to.

K

uh Post it I mean anywhere else where, where we can get the most feedback.

K

Because that will really help formulate what is going to go into additional.

K

Chapter that have not been written yet yeah, kate,.

K

Did you a question thanks ryan? Is that then, I'm to assume that's a convenient.

F

Sort of sample like whoever wants to respond, can provide input via an online.

F

Platform is that correct? Well, yes, and let me back up, there is currently on our.

K

Mtp website there is a general public feedback form. I think that is it's. It's.

K

Not a survey, it is just a general forum for open-ended comments about the.

K

Metropolitan transportation plan so so there's two totally different links, but.

K

I would be happy to assured that a link also so it's not just on the npa's.

K

Website would you mind checking on sharing the same sort of thing with alex.

F

Ville, if they have an online presence that maybe they could be included as.

F

Well, yeah, absolutely, I think that's a great idea! Thank you for that ryan. Yes,.

D

Is that is that something we could even just share with our our friends like on.

D

Facebook things like that, are you, okay, with that?

D

Oh for sure, yeah access to the link, I mean you you're, definitely able to.

K

Share the link on facebook with other groups, you, I think, may end up benefiting.

K

From from our 2045 mtp, we would end up wanting as as much feedback as we can.

K

Possibly get yeah. Thank you, of course, thank you ryan. Would you want.

J

Any outreach with iu as well. Yes, of course, I would just need.

K

To know the best or or I guess, the link that will end up, providing whether it.

K

Be all of the mtp chapters, the survey or the public comment form all of all of.

K

Those links will be available for all the lpas to use on their websites and.

K

We'll just let you know when they're ready to all be launched, so you can do.

K

Them all at the same time, just a quick note to make sure your question sar just.

G

About yeah we advocate, I'm sorry I didn't mean to call you. Oh no you're.

J

Fine yeah, I think that's great, maybe jason bana can help with the iu portion.

J

As well perfect yeah, I just wanted to remind folks to be.

G

On unmute, if you have something else in the background, I think I can hear the mayor's press conference at the moment. So let me just be aware of that.

A

Okay, seeing our comments on this, thank you, pat and brian, for all the hard work.

A

On this transportation plan, I couldn't agree with terry. More. A lot of work goes.

A

Into this, and so we we appreciate it going into old business fiscal year, 2021.

A

To 2022 unified planning work program, revised draft okay, we brought it for you.

C

Well, we we brought a draft unified planning work program before the.

C

Technical advisory committee in the citizens advisory committee in february.

C

And then we also brought before the policy committee what I would call a a.

C

Working draft it to you in march, that was just prior to the approval prior, I'm.

C

Sorry, prior to our submission, with the indiana department of transportation, for.

C

Their review, the work program that we have here for you today is what I would.

C

Call a final draft: this is revised in accordance with comments, review comments.

C

Received from the indiana department of transportation, for those of you that.

C

Aren't familiar with what the unified planning work program is it's the mpo or.

C

The metropolitan organization staff contract of work that we will accomplish.

C

For the urbanized area, with with the aid of federal funding from the department.

C

Of transportation, federal highway administration and federal transit.

C

Administration, the document itself is written out into what I would call major.

C

Sections we have a brief introduction. We have the budget which is divided out by.

C

Fund used by matching agency, object, class, summary budget and contract.

C

Service agreements, contracts, service agreements are with monroe county city.

C

Of bloomington public works and then also with bloomington transit, to provide.

C

Well, with with monroe county and city of bloomington, those are for asset.

C

Management and then we have a contract service agreement with town appellate.

C

Ville so or what I would call asset management.

C

And also for traffic volume counting and then a small agreement also with.

C

Bloomington transit for onboard ridership counts the work elements that.

C

Are contained in the document itself for the administration, public participation.

C

This covers all the meetings that we do and in fact, administration and public.

C

Participation, public participation takes up almost eighty percent of our time. We.

C

Do collection data collection and analysis, predominantly traffic analysis.

C

Traffic data analysis and also crash analysis, short range planning and.

C

Management systems- those are our transportation improvement program in.

C

Other words, our capital investments, project, programming, taking care of any.

C

Problems that may crop up with projects, project management in terms of also.

C

Quarterly reporting long range planning is our metropolitan transportation plan.

C

Which we just ended up discussing extensively, transit and active.

C

Transportation transit is itself self identifying by virtue of the fact that.

C

It's bloomington transit, iu, campus bus and then also rural transit and then the.

C

Active transportation is our bicycle and pedestrian coordination and then other.

C

Planning initiatives and special projects we're doing a title six plan.

C

Update this year and that falls within that category itself and then we have.

C

The well here I'll just go through the appendices we have committee memberships.

C

Identified, we have cost allocation plan letter approval, which is on page 55.

C

Abbreviations are the acronyms the area map the planning emphasis areas which.

C

Comes to us in the way of a formal letter from the federal transit.

C

Administration federal highway administration, local operator match.

C

Insurance! That's assuming that that assures us that bloomington transit for.

C

The work that we're doing with them, which is approximately four thousand.

C

Dollars that they have $800 in matching funds and then a.

C

Auction resolution, the letter at the very end- I don't know if any of you have.

C

Had a chance to go through this document, or not to look at what our planning.

C

Emphasis areas are this year or not. Those include updating the planning.

C

Roles and responsibilities, coordinating operating manual with the indiana.

C

Department of transportation: this is in dots document. The mpos will just be.

C

Working with them in coordination, traffic incident management, which is.

C

Something brand new to the mpo: we've never been involved in traffic incident.

C

Management before this would be a probably end up being a series of.

C

Workshops and or coordination meetings with first responders in terms of.

C

Traffic incident management, local road safety plans. Traditionally the npo has.

C

Not been involved in those either, those are typically been an engineering.

C

Engineering function for monroe county or for the city of bloomington, but we'll.

C

Be working coordinating with the engineering departments, those those two.

C

Entities on local road safety plans, and also with the indiana department of.

C

Transportation, public participation plans. We are updating our public.

C

Participation plan this calendar year as a result of updating our bylaws and.

C

Those cover what I would call the planning emphasis areas identified and.

C

Then we have text identified underneath on how we will address every one of.

C

Those comments, the budget itself- is slightly larger than the previous year. I.

C

Believe last year it was somewhere in the vicinity of two hundred and fifty.

C

Two thousand federal funding, but in in reality this year, we're looking at three.

C

Hundred and fifty three thousand dollar budget, we were required to prepare a.

C

Projected 2022 budget, what we do is we just flat line that assume that the.

C

Funding that we receive this year with the same stuff last year, our and yeah funny, where you see this year, is the same as next year.

C

Federal funding this year, two hundred eighty, eighty, two thousand nine hundred.

C

And five dollars local match: seventy seven: seven: twenty six for a total.

C

Program of three hundred and fifty three thousand dollars and then by funding.

C

Breaking it down into the elements you can see, administration ending up being.

C

The vast bulk of our work 131,000, followed by a data collection which is.

C

The lesser rule, but short range planning, which is our capital improvement.

C

Programming, eighty nine, almost ninety thousand dollars and then long-range.

C

Planning act of transportation and other planning initiatives and contract.

C

Service agreements here here these are with with the city of bloomington public.

C

Works with monroe county highway department and for the town of.

C

Beltsville and I'll be happy to answer any questions. Anybody may have me a.

F

Question, how do you or do you anticipate the the budget in this being affected by.

F

The current emergency, and will there be a change in either the federal side or.

F

Our ability to fund the match, no, we don't anticipate any change in the.

C

Budget whatsoever we received preliminary funding marks. I guess is.

C

What I would call those we received draft marks in january and then we.

C

Received final funding levels, usually a latter part of february. The first part.

C

Of march, the funding is allocated, planning funding is allocated to the.

C

Indiana department of transportation and then the indiana department of.

C

Transportation parses out, as you will, the planning dollars.

C

To each urbanized area based on their population, in other words, its per capita.

C

Allocation and these allocations are based on the last census, on the 2010.

C

Census so the the the monies are already committed. I don't see any impact head.

C

Verse li and in any respect on the budget whatsoever for this, this is.

C

Scheduled for initiation or go, we began all this work by july, 1st, all all the.

C

Contract work must be approved by the department of transportation prior to.

C

June, 30th and nationally, it has to be done by about the 1st of june or the.

C

Middle of june, but that's a long answer to no. We don't see an impact. Okay, great.

A

Thank you. I do have a question pat based on what you've just said. You've said.

B

That our census data actually move the amount that we get from the federal.

B

Government and from the state yeah because of our current situation and the.

B

Number of students who are not residing at this time when we are taking census.

B

It would appear that our census data will show a tremendous decrease in.

B

Population, so I'm wondering long-term what the effect will be on our funding.

B

Well, I can answer this a little bit. Okay, I know that I you for the census is, is.

K

Going to end up giving what the normal fall enrollment is to the census bureau.

K

So I don't think it's actually going to affect bloomington's in monroe county's.

K

Numbers at all, okay ryan is that is that just for students residing on campus or.

D

Is that the entire enroll.

K

That is actually a good question. I know it's for students on campus, but but the.

K

Off-Campus could could differ a little bit sure on that. I know those students.

D

Residing on campus, I you just submits a group quarters count, I'm pretty sure.

D

What I've read and other than that? I also am interested in. What's going on to.

D

Try to get students to complete that as if they're still in bloomington, because.

D

It's such a huge amount of money that you lose just even per student, so I know.

D

I'll look around and see what's going on with those efforts too, it's an important.

G

Point to keep track of, I think I know iu- has been going to pretty extensive.

G

Lengths to make sure that they're getting as many students as possible.

G

Including those who reside off campus to fill out the census based on their.

G

Off-Campus residence and but in this issue of course, isn't unique to.

G

Bloomington alone, it's it's every college, town in the country more or less.

G

And you know the census bureau certainly aware of that too. So, hopefully that will.

G

All be taken to account and figure it out eventually, but certainly something that I am anyone else question.

C

Any any additional questions regarding the work program david. Yes, I mean this.

D

Might be too specific, I really liked this whole draft. I found it a great way.

D

To kind of see how all of these pieces fit together on the the performance.

D

Measures part I'm just wondering if it might be a stupid question is: is there a.

D

Document that has the performance measures or is that sort of a work in.

D

Progress right now: no, we have that the policy.

C

Committee adopted performance measures established by the indiana department of.

C

Transportation, they adopted those in 2018 and then we had additional.

C

Performance measures which were updated safety is one of those it was updated.

C

Last calendar year we anticipate a another set of performance measure.

C

Updates this calendar year, in fact, it should become somewhere around may or.

C

June but yeah I can. I can send that to you in the draft transportation plan.

C

That we have posted on the website, we have performance measures, chapter which.

C

Is out there and that that's probably the best place to look where everything.

C

Is combined together and the performance measures are all all those established.

C

By the current legislation, does that answer your question yeah? Thank you. Okay,.

A

Okay, so it looks like this is a boding item on for approval for this unified.

A

Working program so would I have a motion move to approve.

A

Okay, yeah, I get it.

E

Oh, I have a motion and a second do. I have any public comment, seeing none.

A

Or hearing none do I have any nays or abstentions for this item.

A

We know the unified plan is approved unanimously on to new business item, a.

A

Draft 2045 in tp chapters and appendices for peace, cac and ca c, and the public.

A

Review and discussion- oh I'm sorry, are we under new business? Are we under yes.

C

Okay, oh the mtp chapters, yeah yeah, I'm sorry.

C

Where am I hat okay, I was looking at the wrong thing, as I.

C

Had previously stated, we have 10 draft chapters as the metropolitan.

C

Transportation plan posted on the website currently right now and will go.

C

Through a major distribution of that next week, through different different.

C

Other platforms, the key thing here is to make you aware of the fact that they.

C

These chapters are out there they're ready for review vast majority of these.

C

Have already gone through preliminary review either before the policy.

C

Committee or the citizens advisory committee or the technical advisory.

C

Committee and then those were adjusted based on any comments that we received.

C

So I would call these a 85 95 percent type completion for each one of those.

C

Chapters- and we stress to you that you actually look at the the guiding.

C

Principles since that that forms the entire of the plan itself, we need to.

C

Know if the mission vision goals objectives are all meeting what we.

C

As the committee wish to wish to pursue for the next 20 years,.
