V. 2001 COMMITTEE ASSIGNMENTS Commissioner Morrison asked about assignments on the list were there is no money and the Committee(s) isn't doing anything. Snowden acknowledge that there is no money programmed for the Highway 58 Corridor Study, and staff hopes to get the Irvington Stakeholder group started in March. Radabaugh stated that he will be recommending to drop the Bike Committee and have~it as an ad hoc group. Assignments for 2001: Highway 126 West -Leo Stapleton Legislative Committee -Sky Chamard Community Development -Leo Stapleton, Mary Wirtz, Jack Radabaugh Bicycle Subcommittee -Jack Radabaugh, Rex Redmon Irvington Road -Tom Poage VI. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (FY 01/02-05/06 Russell reviewed the draft CIP highlighting some of the changes over the previous CIP. He indicated that some of the cost figures for some projects have been revised. He stated that the timber guarantee and the new legislation money will provide about $20 million over the next 5 years that isn't programmed. Russell reported that the Board of Commissioners has recommended that the Committee develop guidelines for the unprogrammed money from the Rural Schools & Community Self Determination :Act of 2000. Basically, the CIP looks the same as last year. The County/City Road Partnership remains at $2.5 million in each of the next 5 years. McVay Highway project was added by the Board for construction in 2003. Commissioner Dwyer stated that the money for Game Farm Road needs to be moved to the Pioneer Parkway Extension project. The Senate Transportation Commissioner will be holding a work session in Eugene and will be going on a tour of that project area.. With Symantec moving near Sony increasing employees driving to that area, there is a need to do something. Snowden stated that the Pioneer Parkway project is estimated to be over $8 million. Committee authorized releasing the draft CIP to the public. Date for the CIP public hearing will be decided later in the agenda. Snowden suggested that the Committee may want to schedule the CIP hearing in March and devote the February meeting to developing guidelines for the new Rural Schools & Community Self Determination Act of 2000 money. VII. RURAL SCHOOLS & COMMUNITY SELF DETERMINATION ACT OF 2000 Snowden reviewed the overall Revenue/Expense Forecast for the Road Fund; however, Table 1 doesn't show how high the revenue receipts were in 1989 (approximately $24-$25 million). This new money gives more than we have under the old congressional guarantee, but not what we were getting back in 1989 and 1990. The Board still needs to decide whether to set aside 15% or 20% for Title 2 and Title 3 projects (Sheriff work camp projects for trails, culverts, physical work done on Federal lands). The forecast assumes the Board will set aside 20% of the money. Line 2 assumes no increase in the State gas tax by the Legislature.. Line 14 assumes continuation of the same level of service. Line 29 -the $24 million in FY 05/06 is above maintenance and currently programmed CIP. The CIP is for 5 years; the ACT money is for 6 years. The money in the sixth year can be used as a cushion in case the Federal guarantee is not continued. Snowden reviewed Graph 1 from his January 2 memo. It assumes that there will be up to about $20 million that could be set aside for a capital project partnership with ODOT and the cities. Roads Advisory Committee -January 24, 2001 Page 2 of 5
