Fought, Councilmember, District 4  Amended Motion:  1. The City Manager to determine what time and effort staff have available to conduct this type  of study over the next year.  If it is not in the Transportation Division, Planning Department,  Finance Department and/or City Manager’s Office work program, as outlined in the current  draft budget, can it be adequately staffed to complete this level of work over the next year?  2. Is the challenge to research Federal, State and Regional transportation organizations or is it  transit programs?  This direction to staff is assuming it is transit programs.  3. Narrow the specific analysis to programs that are actually authorized to receive Federal  formula and discretionary funding programs found within the current Federal Transit  Administration.  However, that would narrow the field down to three agencies or programs.   Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail and the State of Texas through the Texas Department of  Transportation.  CARTS is only a contractor to Capital Metro and provides certain 5310  transit opportunities to persons outside of the Capital Metro Service Area in our jurisdiction.   CAMPO, Project Connect, Project Connect North and My35 are simply planning programs  that include staff from Capital Metro, Lone Star Rail District, and TxDOT and representatives  from local governments.  4. The analysis should be based on how those planning programs will lead to funding through  the project delivery agencies.  (Fought amended to include financial risk and benefits to the  City)  5. The Council should provide the Board and staff specifics on what type of economic analysis  data will lead to an ultimate decision by the City Council.  6. Finally, some people ‘can’t see what the final project would look like’ or ‘can’t see what a  Transit Oriented Development would look like.’  Years ago, when the City was looking at  transportation options and creating a TOD ordinance, there was a field trip to perform some  on the ground research.  Members of the City Council, Planning and Zoning, and staff  (GTAB was not in existence at the time) went and stayed at a TOD to see for themselves.  We  should have at least one field trip during this study.  Since it has been about 8 years or so  since that first and only field trip, it should be extremely informative to do it again and see  what a TOD looks like today and how the project has performed over the years.  Vote on the original motion as amended: Approved (6‐1) (Hesser opposed)    Project  Manager  Ed Polasek, AICP  Engineer TBD  Project Status Workplan Under Development    Page 20 of 51 Transportation Services Operations  CIP Maintenance  July 2015  Project Description 2014‐2015 CIP Maintenance of roadways including, Chip seal, Cutler Overlays,  Fog seal applications and Engineering design of future rehabilitation projects.  Purpose To provide protection and maintain an overall pavement condition index of  85%.  Project Manager Mark Miller  Engineer/Engineers KPA, Steger Bizzell, Halff Assoc.  Task Status / Issues  2nd Street  Construction  (KPA) 2nd St. to College St. Neighborhood preconstruction meeting held with  residents went well.  Construction to begin Monday, July 6th following the 4th  of July fireworks event.    9th Street  (Main to Rock)  (KPA) (Patin Construction)    Punch‐list items being completed.  Chip Seal  2015 Currently working with contractor to determine start date. Estimating  completion by August 30th.  Fog Seal 2015 Fog sealing in‐house suspended until cooler temperatures in the fall.  HIPR/overlay 2015  Cutler expected to mobilize end of July.  Curb and gutter work ahead of  this project is currently under way. Repaving estimated to be complete by  October 1st.       Page 21 of 51 City of Georgetown, Texas Transportation Enhancement Corp July 15, 2015 SUBJECT: Discussion regarding various concerns from members of GTEC. – Bill Dryden, P.E., Transportation Engineer and Edward G.
