          WELL, SHE DID NOT INDICATE THAT TO ME. 
          DID SHE? AND SHE DIDN'T TELL YOU WHAT IT WAS ABOUT. 
          UH, SHE DIDN'T, I'M JUST FORGOTTEN, UM, CHAIR. 
          I CAN SPEAK TO THAT. 
          I THINK SHE, I THINK SHE HAD NOTICED, CAUSE SHE MENTIONED THAT TO ME ALSO THAT, THAT SHE THOUGHT THAT WE HAD, UH, ACTUALLY VOTED, UH, ON A MOTION TO POSTPONE ON THE BYLAWS ITEM AND SHE DIDN'T SEE THAT REFERENCED IN THE MINUTES. 
          I HAVE NOT REVIEWED THE MINUTES MYSELF, BUT I THINK THAT'S MY MEMORY COMMISSIONER SHEA OF WHAT SHE HAD MENTIONED. 
          YEAH, THAT SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT. 
          I'M SORRY, I WASN'T DIDN'T JOT IT DOWN.

I MEAN, I RECALL THE DISCUSSION, BUT, UM, I DID NOT REVIEW THE MINUTES THROUGH, SO I COULDN'T, I COULDN'T TELL YOU ABOUT IT, BUT IS THIS AN ISSUE WE CAN JUST TAKE UP WHEN WE'RE HOUSTON JOINS? UM, YEAH, WE WILL LOOK THE MINUTES FOR NOW. 
          MOVE ON TO 
          [6. Discussion and Take Appropriate Action on CAMPO Executive Director to Begin Negotiation on Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Contract]
ITEM NUMBER SIX. 
          UM, TAKE, DISCUSS AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION ON THE CAMPO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO BEGIN NEGOTIATION ON THE TDM CONTRACT. 
          UM, AND I BELIEVE THERE IS A REPORT FROM NEROV ON THIS ONE, I THINK COMMISSIONER LONG, GOOD AFTERNOON. 
          MY NAME IS MIRA VED CAMPUS STAFF. 
          AND, UH, FOR THIS ITEM, I WILL BEGIN WITH A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF TRANSPORTATION, DEMAND MANAGEMENT OR TDM, ESSENTIALLY. 
          IT IS A COLLECTION OF STRATEGIES TO REDUCE DEMAND ON THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK BY REDIRECTING TRAVEL TOWARDS OTHER MODES TIMES OR ROUTES. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU DECIDE TO LEAVE FOR WORK LATER TO AVOID TRAFFIC, THAT IS TDM. 
          IF YOU DECIDE TO TAKE THE BUS THAT'S CDN, AND IF YOU DECIDE TO TAKE ANOTHER ROUTE TO AVOID TRAFFIC, THAT IS ALSO TEDIOUS. 
          THE TDM PROGRAM THAT THE CONSULTANT WILL MANAGE IS AN IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TDM PLAN ADOPTED IN LATE 2019, AND WILL ALSO INCORPORATE LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE ONGOING PADDOCK CAMPUS APPROACH. 
          A TDM WILL BE GEARED TOWARDS ESSENTIAL AND OTHER WORKERS WHO DO NOT WORK A TRADITIONAL NINE TO FIVE JOB OR WORK FROM HOME IS NOT AN OPTION. 
          ADDITIONALLY, WE WILL GATHER DATA, HAVE A BETTER COMPARISON OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF TDM PROGRAMS TO TRADITIONAL ROAD PROJECTS TO HELP ENSURE THE PROGRAM'S EFFECTIVENESS. 
          A STEERING COMMITTEE WILL BE FORMED TO HELP MEET THE PROGRAM GOALS. 
          THE STEERING COMMITTEE SERVES AS A FORUM TO EXCHANGE IDEAS AND ENSURE THE IMPACT IS FELT REGIONALLY. 
          I ALSO WANT TO NOTE THAT THE COMMITTEE SOLUTIONS WEBSITE IS AND WILL BE A KEY FEATURE IN THE REGIONAL TDM PROGRAM. 
          THERE'LL BE NO LOSS OF FUNCTION OR ACCESS FOR CURRENT USERS AS WE MOVE FORWARD. 
          IN FACT, RIGHT, AMIGOS, WHICH IS A SUB-CONSULTANT FOR THE TOP RANKED FIRM IS ALSO THE CURRENT VENDOR FOR COMMUTE SOLUTIONS, WHICH WILL ENSURE A SEAMLESS TRANSITION. 
          NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE, IF BOARD MEMBERS WERE CALLED LAST MONTH, STAFF SHOWED THIS LINE THAT DETAILS EVALUATION PROCESS FOR PROCURING CONSULTANT SERVICES, NEXT SLIDE, AND THE REGIONAL TDM PROGRAM RECEIVED FOUR RESPONSES TO THIS RFP AND TWO WERE CHOSEN TO PARTICIPATE IN INTERVIEWS. 
          TOTAL SCORES SHOW THE TOP RANKED FIRM AS URBAN TRIBES, WHICH INCLUDES THEIR SUB-CONSULTANTS A DECENT COMMUNICATIONS ICF AND RIGHT AMIGOS NEXT SLIDE FOR THIS LAST SLIDE STAFF REQUESTS, THE TRANSPORTATION POLICY BOARD TO AUTHORIZE THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO NEGOTIATE AN EXECUTED CONTRACT WITH THE TOP RANK FIRM TO MANAGE THE REGIONAL TDM PROGRAM. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANKS NIRA. 
          UM, IF YOU COULD CHANGE THE VIEW BACK TO THE WHOLE PANEL NOW, PLEASE. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, SO IF YOU ALL RECALL, IT WAS EITHER IN OUR SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER MEETING, I THINK COMMISSIONER SHAY, YOU HAD ASKED THAT THE RFP BE SENT OUT TO EVERYONE 
          [00:10:01]
ON THE POLICY BOARD, WHICH TOOK PLACE. 
          AND THEN NOVEMBER 5TH, I BELIEVE IS WHEN THE, UM, RFP WAS SENT OUT AND, UM, THEN NERO JUST PROVIDED YOU THE REPORT ON THE SCORING AND ON, UM, AND UH, ON THE PROCESS. 
          SO IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM NUMBER SIX, MADAM CHAIRMAN, I ASK A QUICK QUESTION TO NARROW. 
          SURE. 
          NARROW, THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION QUICK AND EXPEDITIOUS. 
          NO, WE LOVED THAT. 
          AND THIS IS KIND OF MEETINGS, UM, THAT YOU MENTIONED THE SUB COMMITTEE IS A SUBCOMMITTEE. 
          IS THAT GOING TO BE, UM, THE COMPOSITE BEING THE TAC MEMBERS OR IS IT, UM, POLICY BOARD MEMBERS OR WHAT DO YOU HAVE IN REGARDS TO THINKING ABOUT THAT? THEY WILL MOSTLY BE DRAWN FROM A TAC MEMBERS THOUGH, IF THERE ARE OTHER MEMBERS WHO, UM, WILL HAVE, UH, UM, I GUESS, UH, EXPERTISE, THEY WILL ALSO BE CONSIDERED, BUT MOSTLY IT'S USUALLY, ESPECIALLY FOR SOME, IT USUALLY COMES FROM TAC BECAUSE THE SHORT ANSWER, THANK YOU, MATT. 
          APPRECIATE IT. 
          SO, AND I THINK, UM, IT'S REFERRED TO THROUGHOUT AS THE STEERING COMMITTEE AND I THINK THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN WHAT THREW SOME PEOPLE OFF, BUT, UM, SO THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS I HAD JUST A COUPLE OF QUICK CLARIFICATIONS. 
          SO THE, THE REFERENCE TO THE 2019 TDM PLAN THAT, UM, THAT THE CAMPBELL POLICY BOARD ADOPTED THAT'S, IS THAT, IS THAT, IS THAT INCORPORATED IN, AND THAT'S PART OF WHAT THE CONSULTANT WILL BE SORT OF BUILDING OR WORK ON. 
          YOU MADE A REFERENCE TO IT. 
          I JUST WANTED TO UNDERSTAND HOW IT WOULD WORK. 
          YES, MA'AM THE, UH, THE PROGRAM WILL IMPLEMENT A PLAN. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT, UM, I'VE BEEN TALKING WITH TEXTILE ABOUT, AND I THINK WE'VE ALL NOTICED IT IS HOW DRAMATICALLY THE, UM, UH, INITIAL, UM, UM, ACTION TO SHUT DOWN WORKPLACES BECAUSE OF COVID, UH, HOW DRAMATICALLY THAT TRANSFORMED OUR TRAFFIC PROBLEMS. THERE WAS NO MORE CONGESTION. 
          UM, AND WHAT I'M, UH, WONDERING ABOUT WITH THIS TDM PLAN IS HOW, HOW WILL IT WORK WITH LOCAL COMMUNITIES TO SUPPORT TELEWORK, UM, IMPLEMENTATION THAT WASN'T CLEAR TO ME FROM THE DOCUMENT EITHER? UH, SURE. 
          SO FOR A TELEWORK, THAT'S KIND OF, UH, GOING TO BE DEPENDENT, THAT'S WHERE THE OUTREACH COMES IN BECAUSE YEAH, THERE WAS A LOT OF, I MEAN, YES, THERE WAS MANY INDUSTRIES THAT WERE ABLE TO TRANSITION TO WORK FROM HOME QUICKLY AND EFFECTIVELY, BUT THERE WERE ALSO, UH, WE IMAGINED INDUSTRIES THAT COULD NOT DO IT, OR WE'RE NOT QUITE ABLE TO DO IT. 
          SO PART OF THAT, WHERE I MENTIONED THE THIRD BULLET IN THE FIRST SLIDE WAS THE DATA GATHERING ASPECTS IS WE NEED TO GO OUT AND FIND OUT WHICH INDUSTRIES OR PROFESSIONS WEREN'T ABLE TO EXACTLY, UM, BENEFIT OR USE WORK FROM HOME AND SEE IF WE CAN GET THEM TO SEE IF WE CAN HELP THEM ACHIEVE THAT GOAL. 
          UM, CAUSE I THINK THAT THIS WOULD BE A VALUABLE PART OF OUR LONG RANGE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING IS TO JUST HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE VALUE OF TELEWORK IN, UM, ESSENTIALLY EXTENDING THE LIFE OF OUR, OF OUR, UM, OUR TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          IT EASE, IT HELPS TO EASE CONGESTION. 
          UM, SO I'M, I'M JUST WANTING TO UNDERSTAND HOW THAT WILL BE ENCOURAGED AND SUPPORTED, UM, AS PART OF THE TDM PLAN, MR. SHAY, THIS IS ASHLEY. 
          CAN YOU HEAR ME? YEAH. 
          SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WE ARE LOOKING TO DO WITH THIS CONTRACT IS WHERE WE'VE ALREADY STARTED. 
          THE PROCESS OF EXPLORING IS AVAILABLE FOR US TO PURCHASE, UM, WHERE WE COULD START TO GET A SENSE OF, UM, NOT ONLY ORIGIN AND DESTINATION OF TRIP, BUT CAN ALSO, UH, ETHIC AND, UM, IN A MORE REAL TIME BASIS, IT DOES EXIST TODAY UNLIKE, UM, IN THE PAST. 
          AND SO, UM, WE WANT TO TRY TO TARGET THOSE PLACES AND IN SOME CASES, THOSE EMPLOYERS AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT, ONCE WE GET THIS DATA AND WE DO THE OUTREACH TO SEE, CAN WE, UM, UH, ENCOURAGE AND ENHANCE THE USE OF TELEWORK A BIT MORE WHERE IT MAKES SENSE. 
          AND THEN I DON'T KNOW IF THIS, UH, IF THIS WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE, UM, TDM EFFORT OR OUR LARGER SORT OF SAFETY INITIATIVES, BUT IT'S, UH, IT'S, IT'S STRIKING TO ME THAT, UM, THERE WAS, UH, A POST FROM NAC T O THAT, UH, TRAFFIC IS DOWN 13%, BUT DEATHS ARE UP 8%. 
          SO I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH THAT, BUT THAT IS A OBVIOUS PROBLEM. 
          SO WE 
          [00:15:01]
DO HAVE A, UM, UH, SAFETY, UM, UH, SAFETY PROGRAM AND A SAFETY, UM, ANALYSIS REPORT THAT WE DO THE NEAR OF ALTO MINES. 
          UM, SO WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THAT AS WELL. 
          UM, AS WELL AS THAT AS PART OF THE PERFORMANCE MEASURES THAT WE ADOPT FOR TEXTILES, WE WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THAT. 
          I THINK IT'S THE NEXT ITEM. 
          UM, SO WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THAT AND BY THE WAY, UM, MY COUNTERPARTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE TELLING ME THEY'RE SEEING THE SAME THINGS, UM, WHERE, WHAT HAPPENED IS WE SAW A BIG REDUCTION IN TRAFFIC, BUT WE SAW A BIG INCREASE IN CRASHES AND FATALITIES BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE USE THAT LACK OF CONGESTION ON THE ROADWAYS AS THE ANSWER REALLY BRIDES VERY FAST. 
          UM, SO FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND FROM, UH, UM, THINGS I'M SEEING, UM, WRITTEN REPORT ARE THAT, UM, THE CRASHES INVOLVING PEOPLE DRIVING GREATER THAN A HUNDRED MILES AN HOUR WENT UP SIGNIFICANTLY. 
          AND, UM, WHEN THOSE CRASHES HAPPEN AT THOSE SPEEDS IS IT'S NEVER, UM, IS RARELY A VERY GOOD OUTCOME. 
          GREAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          YES MA'AM. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO IS THERE A MOTION FOR ITEM NUMBER SIX? I'LL MOVE PASSAGE OF ITEM SIX, AND THEN AFTER I HAVE A SECOND, I HAVE SOME DIRECTION TO ADD, UM, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER ELLIS. 
          I THINK I SAW YOUR HAND GO UP FOR A SECOND. 
          SO MOTION MADE BY COUNCIL MEMBER ALTER SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER ELLIS. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          ANY DISCUSSION COUNCIL MEMBER ALTAR. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, SO I APPRECIATE THE PRESENTATION FROM NERO AND, UM, UH, WE HAD SHARED SOME DIRECTION THAT WE WANTED TO ADD, UM, WITH ASHBY BEFORE AND SOME OF THAT GOT CAPTURED INTO THE PRESENTATION. 
          UM, BUT BECAUSE THE QUESTIONS STILL, UM, LINGER JUST BASED ON THE PAPERWORK ALONE, I WANTED TO, UM, SUGGEST SOME DIRECTION. 
          I THINK IT'S ALL VERY MUCH IN LINE WITH WHAT YOU'RE PRESENTING FOR TWO OF THE ITEMS THAT ARE IN THE DIRECTION AND THEN THE THIRD, BUT WAS NOT NECESSARILY ADDRESSED IN THE PRESENTATION. 
          UM, SO WHAT I'D LIKE TO PROPOSE IS THAT TPB DIRECTS THE CAMPO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO INCLUDE IN THE TDM CONTRACT AS CLARIFICATION FOR TASK 4.0 REGIONAL COORDINATION, THAT THE CONSULTANT WILL WORK WITH THE CAMPO TAC TO CONVENE A TDM COMMITTEE AS RECOMMENDED BY THE ADOPTED CAMPO REGIONAL TDM PLAN TO ADVISE CAMPUS STAFF AND THE CONSULTANT ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A REGIONAL TDM PROGRAM THAT ALIGNS WITH THE REGIONAL TDM PLAN, THE EVALUATION AND SELECTION OF AN ONLINE TDM PLATFORM TO OPERATE AND MAINTAIN. 
          UM, SO THAT IS, UM, THE FIRST DIRECTION. 
          AND THAT IS ESSENTIALLY TO FOLLOW THE, THE, THE SUGGESTION AND THE TDM PLAN THAT WE ALL PASS, THAT WE WOULD HAVE A TAX SUBCOMMITTEE, UM, THAT DOES NOT PRECLUDE ADDING OTHER PEOPLE TO THAT SUBCOMMITTEE, IF THAT IS WHAT IS NECESSARY FOR THIS STEERING COMMITTEE. 
          SO I THINK THAT WAS DISCUSSED. 
          I PRESUME THAT THAT SHOULD BE FINE. 
          UM, THE SECOND DIRECTION WAS B UM, WITH RESPECT TO THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PLAN. 
          SO THE TPB DIRECTS THE CAMPO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO BRIEF THE TPB ON THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PLAN PRIOR TO EXCEPT FOR TASK 2.0 AS COMPLETE FROM THE CONSULTANT, THE CONSULTANT SHALL CONSULT WITH THE CAMPO TAC TDM SUBCOMMITTEE IN DEVELOPING THE PEP. 
          UM, SO THAT HAS TO DO WITH, UH, COMPREHENSIVE, UM, ENGAGEMENT PLAN. 
          AND JUST BECAUSE SO MANY OF US WHO ARE ON THE BOARD, UM, HAVE CONNECTIONS AND CAN, CAN SUPPORT THAT, UM, TO HELP THAT, UM, REALLY REACH THE POPULATIONS THAT WE ARE TRYING TO TARGET, WHO HAVEN'T BEEN SERVED, UM, FROM SOME OF THE PRIOR INITIATIVES. 
          UM, AND THEN THE THIRD DIRECTION IS THE TPB DIRECTS THE CAMPO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO BRIEF THE TVB ON THE TDM ONLINE PLATFORM TO BE OPERATED BY THE CONSULTANT UNDER TASK 2.1 PRIOR TO SELECTION. 
          IF THE RECOMMENDATION IS TO CHANGE THE PLATFORM FROM THE CURRENT RIDE AMIGOS PLATFORM. 
          SO THE FIRST AND THE THIRD I THINK WERE ADDRESSED IN THE PRESENTATION, BUT JUST FOR CLARITY WOULD LIKE THAT DIRECTION TO BE IN THE RECORD. 
          UM, AND THEN THE SECOND ONE IS JUST, UM, ADDING THE STEP THAT THE CAMPO EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR BRIEF THE TPB ON THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PLAN BEFORE IT IS ACCEPTED AS DELIVERABLE. 
          SO, UM, I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY, I THINK IN THE PRESENTATION, IT'S JUST, IT'S SEMANTICS. 
          I THINK YOU'RE CALLING IT A SUBCOMMITTEE. 
          THE NERO WAS CALLING IT A STEERING COMMITTEE, BUT I THINK IT'S STILL THE SAME CONCEPT. 
          SO, UM, I THINK 
          [00:20:01]
THAT TO YOUR POINT WAS ADDRESSED AND, UM, ASHBY, UM, I THINK YOU'RE BEING ASKED TO, UM, JUST BRING A REPORT BACK TO THE POLICY BOARD ON THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PLAN. 
          UM, I DON'T SEE THAT ANY OF THOSE ARE, UM, DIFFICULT TO DO MY ASK AND I PLEAD AGAIN, PLEASE, I GOT THIS EMAIL AT ONE 31 TODAY, WHEN YOU ALL HAVE SUGGESTIONS LIKE THIS, IT WOULD BE MOST BENEFICIAL TO BE ABLE TO GET THAT TO STAFF SOONER SO THAT THE WHOLE BOTTLE OF SEABOARD CAN HAVE A CHANCE TO. 
          AND LIKE I SAID, I THINK MOST OF THESE WERE ADDRESSED, BUT, BUT PLEASE OUT A DIFFERENCE TO AND RESPECT FOR OUR COLLEAGUES. 
          PLEASE TRY TO GET THESE THINGS OUT A LITTLE BIT SOONER. 
          THAT WOULD BE SO HELPFUL. 
          UM, ASHBY, DID ANY OF THOSE THINGS THAT SEEM LIKE THEY'RE NOT COVERED, UM, IN WHAT YOU PLANNED ON DOING ANYWAY? UH, NO. 
          MA'AM SO, UH, THOSE THINGS THAT WERE LAID OUT BY, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER ALTER ARE, ARE THINGS THAT WE WOULD ROUTINELY DO WITH THESE STUDIES. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, COUNCIL MEMBER, KITCHEN. 
          I SEE YOU HAVE A QUESTION. 
          UH, YEAH, NO, I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY. 
          YEAH, I HEAR WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, CHAIR, YOU KNOW, UM, I HAD MENTIONED THIS BEFORE AND I'M HAPPY TO WORK WITH ASHBY AND OTHERS IF THEY'D LIKE TO PROCEED THIS WAY. 
          ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WOULD BE GREAT IS IF WE HAD, UM, A MESSAGE BOARD, UH, THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S ALLOWED FOR, UM, GOVERNMENTAL BODIES, UM, LET'S FOR THE CITY, FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE A MESSAGE BOARD THAT WE CAN POST THINGS THROUGH, AND THAT HELPS, BUT ALSO I DID GIVE, UH, ASHBY AND I TALKED ABOUT THIS ON FRIDAY. 
          AND AS YOU RECALL, I RAISED, I LET YOU KNOW CHAIR LONG ON FRIDAY THAT WE HAD SOME IDEAS ABOUT THE TDM, RIGHT. 
          AND I'M JUST ASKING IF YOU HAVE IT IN WRITING, TRY TO, YOU CAN GET IT TO ASHBY AND HE CAN SEND THAT OUT TO THE REST OF THE POLICY BOARD, UM, IN ADVANCE. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          WE WILL TRY TO DO THAT IN THE FUTURE. 
          WE THANK YOU PROCESS ON FRIDAY. 
          YES. 
          I'M NOT DONE HERE. 
          SORRY. 
          I THOUGHT YOU WERE FINISHED. 
          NO, THAT'S FINE. 
          I JUST WANTED TO SAY THIS IS GREAT. 
          AND, UM, UH, I APPRECIATE, UH, THE, UM, THE INTENT TO, UH, AS IT WAS DESCRIBED, I THINK THIS IS A GOOD MOVING FORWARD. 
          I JUST WANTED TO, SECONDLY, THE CONCEPT OF BRIEFING US ON THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT PLAN, UM, AND THERE MAY BE OTHER WAYS TO ASHBY THAT YOU'D LIKE TO ENGAGE THE POLICY BOARD. 
          I THINK WE CAN BE HELPFUL TO YOU AND TO THE CONSULTANTS. 
          UM, I KNOW THE INTENT IS TO REALLY REACH OUT TO, UM, UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS. 
          UM, AND ONE OF THE DELIVERABLES ALSO INCLUDES, UM, ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE MEETING, COORDINATION AND MATERIALS. 
          SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT THOSE ASPECTS OF, OF THIS. 
          AND I THINK THAT, UM, AS A BODY, WE CAN BE HELPFUL, UH, TO YOU AND THE CONSULTANT, UM, AS YOU DO THAT WORK. 
          SO I THINK THE BRIEFING, UH, COMING BACK AND BRIEFING US WOULD BE HELPFUL. 
          AND, UH, I AGREE, UH, VICE CHAIR, KITCHEN, AND, UM, UM, WE'LL COME BACK AND DO THE BRIEFING FOR CERTAIN, BUT WE WILL ALSO BE REACHING OUT TO, UH, SOME OF YOU TO HELP US CONVENE, UM, SOME OF THE MEETINGS, UH, IF IT GETS TO A POINT WHERE WE CAN, UM, HAVE SOME OF THESE MEETINGS IN PERSON, IF, IF THE VACCINATIONS MOVE APART, UH, ENOUGH. 
          UM, AND JUST AS A REMINDER, BACK WHEN WE WERE DOING THE, UM, REGIONAL ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN, WE REACHED OUT TO COUNCIL MEMBER ALTAR, UH, TO, UH, HELP US, UM, REACH OUT TO SOME FOLKS FOR THE MEETING THAT WE HAD OVER THE SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF. 
          AND SHE SHOWED US THAT HELP US WITH THAT. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM, MADAM CHAIR? I JUST WANT TO GIVE A LOT OF CREDIT TO THIS BOARD, COMMISSIONER, SHEA AND PETER AS WELL. 
          THIS, THE TDM WE'VE DISCUSSED THIS YEARS AGO AND HAD A DISCUSSION AND ITS FRUITION WAS, I MEAN, NO ONE EXPECTED A PANDEMIC TO HAPPEN AND WE'VE MOVED FORWARD WITH IT AS WELL. 
          SO IT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THIS BOARD LOOKING AT THE FOUR F FOUR THINKING REGARDING THIS, AND SO PRETTY EXCITED TO SEE THIS HAPPEN. 
          SO GOOD, GOOD JOB, ASHLEY AND STAFF. 
          THANK YOU. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          UM, ANY TIME, UM, I'M SORRY, IS THERE ANYONE AGAINST THE MOTION? OKAY. 
          WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THAT AS EVERYBODY ELSE'S FOR THE MOTION. 
          SO MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY. 
          AND JUST AS A CLARIFICATION, I STILL HAVE, UM, THE ONLY I HAVE MAYOR SCHROEDER AND MAYOR VAN ARSDALE AS STILL, UM, NOT, UM, IN ATTENDANCE, SHAWNA, I DON'T SEE ME OR HOUSTON ON HERE. 
          ALICIA, SHE'S ON THERE.

          [00:25:01]

          AND, UM, I DON'T, I CAN'T TELL IS MS. JOSEPH ON THE LINE. 
          I DON'T SEE HER UNLESS SHE HASN'T BEEN ADMITTED TO THE MEETING. 
          I DON'T SEE HER. 
          THERE SHE IS. 
          OKAY. 
          MS. JOSEPH, UM, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THREE MINUTES, BUT, UM, IT, IT WILL BE INCLUSIVE OF AGENDA ITEMS, NUMBER SEVEN, EIGHT, AND NINE. 
          YOUR REQUEST TO SPEAK, UM, CAME IN AFTER THE DEADLINE, BUT IN DEFERENCE TO YOU, WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND ALLOW YOU TO SPEAK, BUT IF YOU WOULD CONDENSE YOUR COMMENTS ON THOSE THREE AGENDA ITEMS, UM, TO THREE MINUTES, UM, LET'S SEE. 
          LET ME GET MY TIMER GOING. 
          AND, UM, ALL RIGHT, GO AHEAD, MS. JOSEPH, YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES TO COVER ITEMS. SEVEN, EIGHT, AND NINE. 
          OKAY, GO AHEAD. 
          THIS IS AN OB JOSEPH AND BOARD MEMBERS. 
          I'M NOT SURE WHAT DEADLINE YOU'RE REFERRING TO. 
          MADAM CHAIR. 
          IT SAID 1:00 PM, AND THAT'S THE TIME MY EMAIL WAS SENT. 
          UM, BUT AT ANY RATE, IF, UM, THAT IS NOT CORRECT, I WOULD JUST ASK YOU TO ASK STAFF TO UPDATE IT BECAUSE I ACTUALLY COMPLIED WITH WHAT WAS POSTED ONLINE FOR THE PUBLIC, AS IT RELATES SPECIFICALLY TO THE TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT. 
          I JUST WANTED TO ASK, I DID FOLLOW THE MARCH 1ST, 2021 PRESENTATION BY MR. RYAN COLLINS. 
          AND I WAS NOT SURE WHAT HE MEANT SPECIFICALLY BY SMALL PROJECTS. 
          SO AT SOME POINT HE TALKED ABOUT, UH, FUNDING FOR SMALL PROJECTS THAT WOULD COME IN THE FUTURE. 
          I'M NOT SURE IF HE WAS REFERRING TO THE TRENDS IN ASSET MANAGEMENT OR IF THAT WAS ITEM EIGHT, BUT IF HE COULD JUST SPEAK TO WHAT THE SMALL PROJECTS ENTAILED, HE TALKED ABOUT PEDESTRIAN PROJECTS AND BIKE PEDS. 
          MY COMMENT IS SPECIFICALLY RELATED TO, UH, THE NEED FOR TRANSPORTATION ON FM SEVEN THREE, FOUR, AND THE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS, WHICH IS LACKING TO SAMSUNG, AS YOU MAY BE AWARE. 
          AND I'VE MENTIONED THIS BEFORE. 
          THERE'S NO SIDEWALK FROM DESSA AND PALMER TO SAMSUNG AND ACROSS FROM PALMER IS THE 425 ACRE DEVELOPMENT EAS VILLAGE. 
          AND SO I WOULD JUST ASK YOU TO RECOGNIZE THE NEED FOR PEDESTRIAN ACCESS THERE. 
          AND AS IT RELATES TO SMALL PROJECTS AND PROJECTS IN GENERAL, I DID HAVE A QUESTION AS IT RELATES TO METRO RAPID. 
          AND I THANK MR. ASHBY JOHNSON FOR THE EMAIL, THE SCORING CRITERIA THAT I'M REFERRING TO IS IN THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN, 2045, BUT I'M NOT SURE TO WHAT EXTENT THE STAFF HAS LATITUDE TO SIMPLY TAKE A PROJECT FROM THERE, UH, AND TO TRANSFER IT OVER TO THE NEW MONIES THAT YOU'VE RECEIVED UNDER THE CARES ACT FUNDING. 
          AND SO, AS IT RELATES TO YOUR BYLAWS, WHICH IS ITEM NINE, I JUST WANT TO ASK YOU TO CONSIDER INTEGRITY AND SPECIFICALLY CAPITAL METRO, UH, PASS THEIR ETHICS POLICY ON NOVEMBER 14, 2018. 
          HOWEVER, I JUST WANT YOU TO BE AWARE THAT THE PUBLIC, WHEN PROJECT CONNECT WENT TO FOR THE VOTERS NOVEMBER THE THIRD 2020, THEY WERE NOT, UM, TOLD ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE IN SCORING CRITERIA FOR THE METRO RAPID LINE. 
          SO THERE WAS A LACK OF TRANSPARENCY. 
          I KNOW THAT MAY SOUND CONFUSING, BUT THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT THE TRANSPORTATION, UH, THE THREE METRO RAPID LINES THAT SERVE NORTH EAST AUSTIN, WHICH WOULD HAVE INCLUDED PARMER LANE WERE ALL CHEAPER, LESS EXPENSIVE THAN THE LINE THAT WILL SERVE SOUTHWEST AUSTIN, WHICH ALIGNS WITH THE SOUTH PARK PARKWAY PROJECT $633 MILLION. 
          THAT'S A LOT OF INFORMATION, BUT IF YOU COULD JUST ADDRESS HOW THE PROJECTS WILL BE FUNDED, UM, AND SELECTED, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. 
          IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL GLADLY ANSWER THEM AT THIS TIME. 
          UM, THANK YOU. 
          UM, MS. JOSEPH, UM, I THINK, UH, SOME OF THE QUESTIONS YOU RAISED I HAVE TO DO WITH TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES AND NOT NECESSARILY WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ON THESE PARTICULAR ITEMS. UM, 
          [00:30:01]
BUT, UH, IF THERE'S ANY FOLLOW-UP, UM, I WILL ASK, UH, THAT IF YOU COULD PUT THOSE QUESTIONS IN WRITING TO STAFF, THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP YOU, BECAUSE I THINK IT'S, IT'S ON A DIFFERENT TOPIC ON THE TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVES TOPIC. 
          AND LASTLY, MADAM CHAIR, I'LL JUST TELL YOU THAT I'M LOOKING ON PAGE 30 OF ONE OH, ONE OF YOUR BOARD PACKET, UM, FOR TRANSIT SAFETY TARGETS. 
          SO THAT'S WHERE I WAS TRYING TO MAKE MY COMMENTS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE THANK YOU. 
          YOU'RE WELCOME. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          WE'LL NOW TAKE UP ITEM NUMBER SEVEN. 
          METRO, CAN WE JUST CLARIFY WHAT IS THE REQUIREMENT FOR PEOPLE TO, UH, INDICATED INTEREST IN SPEAKING GENERALLY, MOST MEETINGS PEOPLE CAN SHOW UP AND SPEAK. 
          SHE'S POSTING SAYS BY ONE O'CLOCK ON THE DAY OF IT WAS, IT WAS THE, THE POSTING DOES SAY THAT. 
          AND, UM, IT WAS RECEIVED AFTER 1:00 PM, BUT AGAIN, WE, I ACCOMMODATED THAT AND ALLOWED HER TO SPEAK. 
          SO I THINK WE SHOULD BE GOOD, UM, ON ITEM NUMBER SEVEN. 
          UM, LET'S SEE, I THINK RYAN, YOU HAVE THAT PARTICULAR ITEM. 
          UH, YES, MA'AM THANK YOU CHAIR LONG. 
          UM, AND I CAN TRY AND ADDRESS THE OBVIOUS COMMENTS, UH, LATER ON I THINK, UH, UH, I'LL TRY AND GET IN TOUCH WITH HER AND SEE IF I CAN CLARIFY, UM, THE COMMENTS THAT SHE MADE. 
          UM, SO, UM, THANKS. 
          AND SO, UH, QUICKLY, I KNOW WE'VE GOT A LONG MEETING, SO I WANTED TO, UM, THIS ITEM IS REGARDING THE TRANSPORTATION PERFORMANCE MEASURES, UM, PRESENTED A DEEP DIVE ON THE TRANSPORTATION, UH, TARGETS, UH, LAST TIME. 
          UH, BUT FOR THE PRESENTATION TODAY, I REALLY WANTED TO KIND OF TAKE A STEP BACK AND TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH, UH, TO WHY WE'RE SETTING THESE TARGETS AND REALLY WHAT THEY MEAN FOR THE POLICY BOARD IN GENERAL. 
          UM, WE GOT SOME REALLY GOOD FEEDBACK AT THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE, UH, LAST MONDAY, UM, AND THE TWO BIG QUESTIONS THAT REALLY CAME OUT OF THAT FOR ME WERE, YOU KNOW, WHY ARE WE SETTING THESE TARGETS AND WHAT ARE THE IMPACTS? AND THEN REALLY, HOW ARE WE DOING AS A REGION, UM, IN REGARDS TO THE TARGETS THAT WE'RE SETTING. 
          SO I DID WANT TO KIND OF TAKE A STEP BACK AND TALK ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT. 
          UM, AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I MENTIONED, UH, LAST TIME WAS THAT, UH, BACK IN 2012, UH, THE, UH, CONGRESS ADOPTED MAP 21 AND AGAIN, IN THE FAST DOCS AS WELL, UH, THEY REALLY MANDATED, UH, TRANSPORTATION PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. 
          UM, AND THIS IS REALLY JUST A STRATEGIC APPROACH THAT USES, UH, UH, DATA AND INFORMATION TO REALLY GUIDE OUR, UH, TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENT DECISIONS AS WELL AS POLICY, UH, IN THE REGION, UH, AGAINST THESE NATIONAL GOALS THAT, UH, THAT CONGRESS HAS SET OUT AND IS REALLY IMPORTANT. 
          THAT TARGETS ARE REALLY JUST ONE PIECE OF THAT. 
          THEY'RE REALLY JUST THE MEASURING STICK WITH WHICH WE CAN MONITOR OUR PROGRESS AS A REGION OVER TIME. 
          AND, AND THIS IS AN EVOLVING SYSTEM. 
          UH, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY KIND OF STARTED IN MY MIND. 
          I FEEL LIKE IT STARTED IN EARNEST WHEN WE REVAMPED OUR, UH, OUR PROJECT SELECTION CRITERIA BACK IN 2017. 
          UH, WE DEVELOPED THAT SELECTION CRITERIA BASED ON THAT, THOSE MAJOR GOALS THAT CONGRESS SET OUT. 
          AND SO, UH, WE REALLY USED A PERFORMANCE-BASED APPROACH WHEN WE MADE RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDED PROJECTS OUT OF THAT PROCESS. 
          SO THAT WAS A BIG PUSH AND THAT'S REALLY ONE OF THE TEETH OF THE TARGETS, YOU KNOW, WITH WHICH WE MEASURE OURSELVES, UH WE'RE WE MADE THESE STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS AND ALSO POLICY DECISIONS THAT REALLY IMPACT, UH, HOW WELL WE CAN, UH, YOU KNOW, MOVE THOSE TARGETS AROUND. 
          SO, UM, SO ALONG WITH THE PROJECT SELECTION CRITERIA, WE SET THE REGIONAL TARGETS. 
          UM, AND THEN AGAIN, UH, THIS IS AN EVOLVING SITUATION AT THE TIME, BUT WE MONITORED THESE INVESTMENTS. 
          WE'RE TRACKING THE PROJECTS THAT WE INVESTED IN, UM, AND WE'RE GOING TO BE MONITORING THE, THE IMPACT OF THOSE PROJECTS OVER TIME. 
          SO AFTER THESE PROJECTS WERE BUILT, UH, WE'RE GOING TO BE MEASURING THE IMPACT THEY HAVE ON THE REGION AS A WHOLE. 
          SO WE CAN REALLY KIND OF SEE EXACTLY WHAT THE RETURN OF INVESTMENT RETURN ON INVESTMENT IS FOR THOSE PRODUCTS. 
          AND THEN WE ALSO INCORPORATE A TPM APPROACH INTO ALL OF OUR PLANNING PRODUCTS, UH, THE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM. 
          IF YOU LOOK AT A REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN, ALL OF THE STUDIES WE DO, AND AS NEAR, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, I THINK THE, THE TDM PROGRAM ITSELF IS ALSO ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT JUST TAKES A PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT APPROACH. 
          IS THERE ANYTHING THAT'S REALLY DATA CENTRIC, UM, IS REALLY PART OF THAT SYSTEM? SO, UH, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE TARGETS, I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM IN ISOLATION. 
          I FEEL LIKE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT KIND OF GETS LOST IS THAT THESE ARE REALLY PART OF A LARGER SYSTEM THAT CAMPO, UH, INITIATE. 
          SO I JUST WANT TO KIND OF TAKE THAT OVERALL VIEW. 
          UM, EMILY, SHE'LL GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. 
          YES. 
          AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, UH, CONGRESS DID SET THOSE PERFORMANCE GOAL AREAS. 
          SO WE LOOK AT SAFETY INFRASTRUCTURE, CONDITION, CONGESTION, RELIABILITY, AND FREIGHT MOVEMENT, UM, ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY, AND ALSO REDUCING, UH, PROJECT DELAYS AND, UH, HAVING QUICKER PROJECT DEVELOPMENT. 
          UM, AND SO THE PERFORMANCE MEASURE PROCESS IN REGARDS TO THE TARGETS, UM, THE GOAL AREAS WERE SET BY CONGRESS. 
          UM, BUT THEN THE GOALS 
          [00:35:01]
AND THE PERFORMANCE MEASURES THEMSELVES, UH, GO THROUGH THE FEDERAL RULEMAKING PROCESS AT THE USDA, UM, AND OUR WORLD THAT IS, UH, FWA AND FTA. 
          AND THEY'VE BEEN SYSTEMATICALLY GOING THROUGH THE RULE-MAKING PROCESS, UH, FOR EACH PERFORMANCE MEASURE. 
          AND THAT'S WHY YOU'LL SEE THEM ALL COME ON. 
          THEY'VE ALL COME ONLINE AT DIFFERENT TIMES. 
          UM, BUT THEN ONCE THESE PERFORMANCE MEASURES ARE CODIFIED IN LAW, UH, WE, UH, THE USDA, EXCUSE ME, THE STATE DEITY, UH, REGIONAL TRANSIT AGENCIES, AS WELL AS THE NPO, UH, SET TARGETS IN REGARDS TO THESE PERFORMANCE MEASURES. 
          AND THEN WE INCORPORATE THOSE INTO OUR PLANS AND THEN AT THE PRIMING PROGRAMMING AND INVESTMENT DECISIONS THAT WE MAKE THE NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. 
          SO THIS IS A OVERARCHING SUMMARY OF ALL THE, UH, PERFORMANCE TARGETS THAT I PRESENTED LAST TIME. 
          AND, UM, I'M NOT GOING TO GO INTO THESE INDIVIDUALLY. 
          SO, UM, BUT AT THE END OF THIS PRESENTATION, IF YOU DO HAVE ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT ANY OF THESE PERFORMANCE TARGETS, UH, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK YOU IS I'VE GOT THE DATA WITH ME AND WE'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO GO INTO DETAIL ON ANY OF THESE. 
          UM, BUT REALLY THIS IS A SUMMARY OF ANYTHING THAT YOU SEE IN LIGHT BLUE IS A TARGET THAT IS NUMERICALLY GOING DOWN. 
          UM, AND THEN ANYTHING IN DARK BLUE IS A TARGET THAT IS NUMERICALLY GOING UP. 
          UM, AND I WOULD ASK YOU TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE METRIC THAT'S BEING USED, UH, WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE CHANGES, UM, OBVIOUSLY NUMBER OF FATALITIES THAT TARGET'S DOING DOWN, AND THAT'S A GOOD THING. 
          UM, BUT, AND ALSO IF YOU LOOK AT PAVEMENT CONDITIONS, FOR EXAMPLE, UH, THAT'S GOING UP AND THAT'S PAYMENTS IN GOOD CONDITION. 
          SO THAT'S A, THAT'S A GOOD THING. 
          SO, UH, WHEN YOU'RE, UH, LOOKING AT THESE, I WOULD, UH, PAY ATTENTION TO THAT. 
          UM, AND THEN NEW, UH, UH, PERFORMANCE MEASURES THAT WE HAVEN'T HAD YET OUR TRANSIT SAFETY TARGETS. 
          UM, NOW THEY'RE SETTING THOSE AND THEN THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME METRICS THAT WE USE FOR THE HIGHWAY SIDE. 
          UM, BUT THOSE ARE BRAND NEW METRICS THAT ARE BASED OFF OF THE, UH, TRANSIT AGENCIES, UH, SAFETY, UH, PLANS THAT THEY'VE MAKE. 
          UM, THE ONE THING I DO WANT TO CLARIFY IS THAT PM ONE, TWO AND THREE ARE ALL, UH, FWA AND TEXTILE TARGETS. 
          UM, AND THEN ON THE TRANSIT SIDE, WE HAVE TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT AND TRANSIT SAFETY TARGETS. 
          THESE ARE AVERAGES BETWEEN THE THREE TRANSIT AGENCIES WE HAVE IN THE REGION. 
          WE HAVE CAPITAL METRO, THE CITY OF ROUND ROCK AND THE CITY OF, UM, SAN MARCUS. 
          AND SO WE'VE AVERAGED THEIR TARGETS, UH, IN REGARDS TO THOSE. 
          SO THESE ARE REGIONAL. 
          UM, BUT THEN WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE, ON THE HIGHWAY SIDE, WE ARE ADOPTING THE, THE STATE RECOMMENDING, UH, ADOPTING THE STATEWIDE TARGETS. 
          THE NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. 
          SO THIS IS JUST A DIFFERENT LOOK AT THE SAME INFORMATION, UH, AND REALLY KIND OF THE, THE IMPORTANT THING THAT I PULLED AWAY FROM THE, THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE IS, UH, YOU KNOW, HOW, HOW ARE WE DOING AS A REGION IN REGARDS TO THESE TARGETS THAT WE'RE ADOPTING AND, YOU KNOW, THINGS YOU SEE IN LIGHT GREEN, THESE ARE TARGETS THAT WITH WHICH WE ARE EXCEEDING, UM, AND ANYTHING IN DARK GREEN IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY BELOW THE TARGET. 
          AND THEN IF WE'RE EITHER EQUAL WITH THE TARGET OR TO NEW TARGET, IT'S IN GRAY. 
          BUT, UM, I THINK WHAT THIS, ISN'T THE STORY I'M TRYING TO SAY HERE IS THAT OVERALL, UH, WE'RE DOING BETTER IN MOST METRICS THAN, UH, THAN THE STATEWIDE AVERAGE, WHICH IS REALLY IMPORTANT. 
          I DO WANT TO CLARIFY THAT OBVIOUSLY ON SAFETY, PERFORMANCE MEASURES, ANY NUMBERS, NOT A GOOD NUMBER. 
          UM, SO WHEN I SAY WE'RE DOING BETTER, THAT DOES NOT MEAN WE'RE NECESSARILY DOING GOOD, BUT WE ARE TRENDING BETTER THAN THE STATEWIDE AVERAGE. 
          SO THAT'S JUST AN IMPORTANT CLARIFICATION TO MAKE. 
          UM, WE DO, UM, SAFETY AS FAR AS FATALITIES, IF YOU ADJUST FOR POPULATION WE'RE RIGHT ON TREND WITH THE TARGET. 
          UM, BUT OUR RATE OF FATALITIES, NUMBER OF INJURIES AND RATE OF SERIOUS INJURIES ARE LOWER THAN THE STATEWIDE AVERAGE, IF YOU ADJUST FOR POPULATION. 
          UM, AND THEN THE REGION ITSELF, WE DO HAVE, UH, UH, VERY GOOD, UH, INTERSTATE PAVEMENT CONDITIONS, AS WELL AS NATIONAL HIGHWAY PAVEMENT CONDITIONS AND BELOW AVERAGE, UH, SYSTEM PAVEMENT AND POOR CONDITIONS. 
          AND THEN OUR SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, UH, OUR RELIABILITY CURRENTLY IS BELOW THE 70% TARGET, UM, AND OUR FREIGHT TIME RELIABILITY AS WELL. 
          SO, UM, I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THERE IS ONE METRIC. 
          SO IF YOU LOOK AT TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT, UM, I BELIEVE CAP METRO, I DID HAVE A FLEET THAT AGED OUT LAST YEAR, AND THAT'S WHY THEY DID NOT MEET THAT TARGET, BUT I WOULD EXPECT THAT WILL CHANGE NEXT YEAR. 
          AND SO, UM, YOU KNOW, WE SET TRANSIT ASSET MANAGEMENT TARGETS EVERY YEAR, AS WELL AS SAFETY TARGETS. 
          SO WE'LL BE BRINGING THESE BACK NEXT YEAR. 
          UM, BUT OVERALL, YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS CHANGE CONSTANTLY. 
          UH, THE DATA WE GET IS CONSTANTLY BEING UPDATED. 
          AND SO, UM, YOU KNOW, NEXT YEAR WILL LOOK VERY DIFFERENT. 
          AND, UH, SPECIFICALLY I THINK IN REGARDS TO SAFETY IN THE EARLIER CONVERSATION THAT WE HAD, UM, IS THAT WE DON'T YET HAVE THE PANDEMIC, UH, THE DATA FOR 2020, THAT SHOULD BE COMING OUT ANY TIME, I THINK SOMETIME IN MARCH. 
          UH, BUT WHAT WILL BE REALLY TELLING IT, YOU KNOW, AS, AS YOU MENTIONED, IS THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, OUR FATALITY IS GOING TO GO UP BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE SPENDING MORE ON OPEN HIGHWAYS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          SO, UH, IT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT WE MEASURE OVER TIME. 
          UH, AND SO THAT'S REALLY THE GIST OF, UH, THIS ENTIRE THING, UH, THAT WE'RE DOING HERE. 
          SO, UM, WITH THAT, UH, EMILY, IF YOU'LL GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE. 
          OKAY. 
          ONLY SO FOR THE NEXT STEPS, 
          [00:40:01]
UM, I'LL, I'LL BE UPDATING THE PERFORMANCE MEASURE, UH, REPORT. 
          UM, IT'LL INCLUDE THE ADOPTED TARGETS, UH, FROM TODAY. 
          UH, ALSO WE'LL BE ADDING SOME INFORMATION ON TARGET DEVELOPMENT METHODOLOGY. 
          I THINK THAT'LL HELP US UNDERSTAND THE NUMBERS A LITTLE BIT BETTER. 
          UM, YOU KNOW, WHERE THEY'RE COMING FROM, BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF, THERE'S SOME, SOME INTERESTING MATH BEHIND A LOT OF THESE TARGETS, UM, THAT WE GET. 
          UM, SO I'LL BE FLESHING THAT OUT IN THE REPORT ITSELF. 
          AND THEN AS I MENTIONED, THAT REGIONALLY SPECIFIC INFORMATION, I DO HAVE THAT, UH, AND I WAS DEBATING WHETHER OR NOT DOING INCORPORATED INTO THE PRESENTATION TODAY, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO GET BOGGED DOWN, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THEM, PLEASE LET ME KNOW TODAY, BUT THAT WILL CERTAINLY BE INCLUDED IN THE PERFORMANCE REPORT. 
          UM, SO WE'LL BE ABLE TO COMPARE OURSELVES, UH, TO THE, UH, KNOWLEDGE OF THE, YOU KNOW, THE REGION ON THE TRANSIT SIDE, BUT THE STATE, UH, AND OTHER REGIONS IN THE STATE AS WELL, OTHER NPOS, WE CAN COMPARE OURSELVES TO THAT, UH, UH, FOR THE HIGHWAY MEASURES. 
          UM, AND THEN I'LL BE ADDING SOME ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION. 
          AND THEN AFTER THAT, UH, WE'LL BE UPDATED AND TARGETS. 
          THEY GET INCORPORATED INTO THE PLANNING PRODUCTS, UH, NAMELY THE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN. 
          EVERY TIME Y'ALL ADOPT A NEW TARGETS, WE HAVE TO AMEND THE TIP AND RTP DOCUMENTATION TO INCLUDE THESE TARGETS. 
          UM, AND THEN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PERFORMANCE MEASURE SYSTEM, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, THIS IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE EVOLVING OVER TIME. 
          UM, THIS INCLUDES THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEXT STATE OF SAFETY REPORT THAT I THINK WAS MENTIONED EARLIER. 
          UM, IT'S LINKED IN THE PRESENTATION AND IF YOU HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT IT, I WOULD GREATLY ENCOURAGE ANYONE WHO'S INTERESTED IN SAFETY TO TAKE A DEEP DIVE INTO THAT REPORT. 
          UM, THERE'S A LOT OF FASCINATING INFORMATION. 
          IT BRINGS THE, IT HAS A CRASH RATE INFORMATION ALL THE WAY UP INTO 2018 AND REALLY BREAKS IT DOWN INTO ABOUT EVERY CATEGORY YOU CAN IMAGINE, UM, AND REALLY GIVES YOU A GOOD SENSE OF WHAT WE LOOK LIKE AS A REGION. 
          UM, AND THEN OF COURSE, UH, WE'VE GOT AN INFORMATION DASHBOARD, UH, THAT NEARS WORKING ON THAT WE WILL BE, UH, PUTTING ONLINE, WHICH WILL HOPEFULLY GIVE US A, REAL-TIME LOOK AT, UH, THE PERFORMANCE OF THE SYSTEM OVERALL IN REAL TIME. 
          AND THEN OF COURSE, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, WE'LL BE EVALUATING PROJECT IMPACTS IN THE REGION OVER TIME, AS THEY GET BUILT THAT WAY WE CAN COMPARE WITH OUR ANALYSIS WHEN WE AWARDED THEM. 
          AND THEN AFTER THEY BUILT AND WE CAN REALLY TRACK OUR INVESTMENTS. 
          AND THEN IF WE NEED TO, YOU KNOW, ADJUST OUR POLICIES AND OUR CRITERIA, IF WE DON'T THINK WE'RE MEETING OUR TARGETS, OR IF WE'RE DOING EXCEEDINGLY WELL, WE MAY REALIZE WE'RE DOING SOMETHING REALLY. 
          RIGHT. 
          UM, SO THOSE ARE THE THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD IN THE FUTURE. 
          UM, AND ONE THING I DID NOT MENTION IS THAT CURRENTLY WE, WE SUPPORT THE STATEWIDE, UH, TARGETS, BUT I DO THINK AS THE SYSTEM EVOLVES AND WE GET MORE EFFICIENT, UM, AT GATHERING THIS INFORMATION AND, UH, AS WE BUILD THE SYSTEM OUT, I DO THINK IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS, WE MIGHT LOOK AT SETTING OUR OWN REGIONAL TARGETS OURSELVES. 
          UM, THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE BEST TO COINCIDE WITH A PROJECT SELECTION PROJECT CALL THAT WAY WE CAN ALIGN OUR TARGETS, UH, YOU KNOW, SPECIFICALLY WITH OUR INVESTMENT DECISIONS IN REAL TIME. 
          BUT, UM, I DIGRESS, UH, YOU KNOW, I KNOW WE'VE GOT SOME OTHER ITEMS TO GET TO, BUT, UH, THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION, UH, STAFF AND THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE ARE RECOMMENDING, UH, ADOPTION OF THESE PERFORMANCE MEASURE, TARGET UPDATES, UH, WITH RESOLUTION 21, THREE SEVEN. 
          AND, UH, THAT CONCLUDES THE PRESENTATION. 
          IF YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TARGETS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU, RYAN. 
          UM, IS THERE AN OCEAN ON ITEM NUMBER SEVEN? OKAY. 
          NOT ALL AT ONCE. 
          I'LL MOVE. 
          I'LL MOVE. 
          WE ADOPT. 
          I HAVE NUMBER SEVEN. 
          IS THERE A CHAIR? OKAY. 
          MOTION BY LONG, SECOND BY KITCHEN FOR ITEM NUMBER SEVEN. 
          IS THERE, UH, IF YOU COULD, UM, EMILY, IF YOU COULD PULL THE PRESENTATION DOWN. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION ON ITEM NUMBER SEVEN, UH, CHAIR? UM, YES. 
          MA'AM RYAN SAID AT THE END, WE, WE SUPPORT THE STATEWIDE TARGETS AND I SEEM TO RECALL THERE WAS SOME, UM, COLORFUL DISCUSSION ABOUT THIS LAST YEAR WHEN IT CAME UP AND WE DIDN'T HAVE, WE DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO MAKE CHANGES IN IT BECAUSE WE WERE UP AGAINST A DEADLINE, HAD TO ADOPT THE STATE TARGETS. 
          UM, AND I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT NUMBERS, BUT THE TAR, THE STATE TARGETS WERE THAT WE WOULD GET WORSE IN THE FUTURE IN, IN VARIOUS CATEGORIES. 
          UM, CAN YOU SPEAK TO THIS, RYAN? WHAT ARE THE STATE TARGETS IS TO APPEAR AS WHAT IS IT THAT WE'RE WE'RE SUPPORTING? BECAUSE I THINK WE ALL KIND OF FELT LIKE, WELL, WE DON'T REALLY WANT TO ADOPT THE TARGET TO GET WORSE IN THE FUTURE. 
          AND I KNOW THERE WERE SOME MORE TECHNICAL ISSUES AROUND IT, BUT THAT WAS MY RECOLLECTION FROM LAST YEAR'S DISCUSSION. 
          YEAH. 
          AND I THINK THAT WAS IN REGARD TO THE SAFETY TARGETS. 
          AND I CAN TALK MORE IN DEPTH ABOUT THAT IF YOU'D LIKE ME TO, UM, SO OUR GETS THAT WE'RE SUPPORTING, YOU MADE A REFERENCE AT THE END THAT WE'RE SUPPORTING STATE TARGETS, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE, UH, FOR SAFETY, UH, PM ONE PAVEMENT BRIDGE CONDITIONS PMQ AND THEN A SYSTEM, 
          [00:45:01]
UH, PERFORMANCE PM, THREE. 
          THOSE ARE ALL, UM, TEXTS, TARGETS THAT WE SUPPORT. 
          UM, AND THEN I THINK THE, THE DISCUSSION LAST YEAR WAS IN REGARDS TO THE SAFETY TARGETS. 
          AND SO, WELL, I ALSO THOUGHT IT HAD TO DO WITH, UM, WHAT WAS THE THIRD CATEGORY? YOU SAID SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, I THINK WAS THE ONE WHERE PEOPLE WERE REALLY HAPPY. 
          I DON'T RECALL THE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE ONE, BUT YEAH. 
          SO ONE OF THE INTERESTING THINGS THAT REALLY COMES UP YEAR AFTER YEAR IS THAT OFTENTIMES, SO THE, THE TARGETS THAT ARE SET BY TEXTILES TYPICALLY, YOU KNOW, THEY LOOK AT THE NEXT YEAR AND BECAUSE TECH, UH, THE STATE OF TEXAS AND OUR REGION IN PARTICULAR, UH, IS GROWING AT SUCH A RAPID RATE THAT A LOT OF THESE METRICS ARE GOING UP. 
          UM, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE EXPECTATIONS IS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MORE PEOPLE ON THE ROAD BECAUSE THERE'S MORE PEOPLE IN THE REGION. 
          AND SO THAT MEANS THERE'S A LIKELIHOOD THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE FATALITIES, BUT WHAT TXDOT DOES IS THEY SEE ANYTHING THAT HAS A POSITIVE TREND LINE, IF WE'RE EXPECTING MORE. 
          AND THEN THEY LOOK AT WHAT THAT EXPECTED NUMBERS ARE USED TO BE. 
          AND THEN THEY SET A TARGET THAT IS 2% BUT LOW THAT, UH, EXPECTED NUMBER. 
          UM, BUT ONE THING, AND I W W I MENTIONED IT LAST TIME, BUT I SHOULD PROBABLY POINT OUT THIS TIME AS WELL WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY NUMBERS IN PARTICULAR IS THAT TXDOT HAS ADOPTED THE ROAD TO ZERO PROGRAM, WHICH IS LOOKING TO REDUCE FATALITIES TO ZERO BY THE YEAR 2050. 
          AND SO THEIR TARGETS ABOUT FAR MORE AGGRESSIVE, UM, THIS PAST YEAR IN REGARDS TO SAFETY. 
          SO THEY'RE IGNORING THAT, UH, THAT NUMBER THAT'S SUPPOSED TO, YOU KNOW, IN THEORY, IT WOULD GO HIGHER BECAUSE OF MORE PEOPLE MOVING TO THE STATE AND THEY'RE SETTING A MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE TONE, UM, TARGET AGAINST THOSE SAFETY MEASURES. 
          AND THEY'VE, UH, INVESTED, I THINK IT WAS LIKE 600 MILLION ADDITIONAL DOLLARS INTO SAFETY PROJECTS IN THE STATE. 
          SO, UM, BUT THAT'S, WHAT IF YOU SEE SOMETHING GOING UP, IT'S BECAUSE OF THE POPULATION GROWTH IN TEXAS IN GENERAL, ACROSS ALL OF THESE MEASURES THAT WE LOOK AT. 
          GREAT. 
          AND THANKS FOR THE REMINDER ABOUT, UH, TEXTS OUT ADOPTING SAFETY TARGETS. 
          THAT'S REALLY, REALLY IMPORTANT. 
          THANKS. 
          WELL, THANKS COMMISSIONER. 
          UM, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR RYAN ON ITEM NUMBER SEVEN? OKAY. 
          WE'LL GO AGAIN IN THE REVERSE ORDER. 
          IS THERE ANYBODY AGAINST, UM, THE MOTION TO, UM, ADOPT ITEM NUMBER SEVEN? OKAY. 
          SEEING AND HEARING NONE, A MOTION FOR ITEM NUMBER SEVEN, RATHER PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

          THIS IS THERESA WITH CAMPO. 
          UM, THIS ITEM IS TO TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION ON THE FISCAL YEAR 2020 AND 2021 UPW P AMENDMENT. 
          UM, THE UNIFIED PLANNING WORK PROGRAM IS A FEDERALLY REQUIRED DOCUMENT THAT IDENTIFIES THE PLANNING PRIORITIES AND ACTIVITIES TO BE CARRIED OUT WITHIN THE CAMPO REGION. 
          UM, THE PWP IS ADOPTED EVERY TWO YEARS AND MAY BE AMENDED. 
          UM, NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. 
          ON, UM, JANUARY 12TH, CAMPO RECEIVED A REQUEST FROM CAPITAL METRO TO ADD THEIR PILOT PROGRAM FOR TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT PLANNING, UM, AND TO ADD FUNDING OF 900,000 OF FTA GRANT FUNDS AND 225,000 OF LOCAL FUNDS. 
          UM, NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. 
          SO STAFF IS REQUESTING APPROVAL OF THE FISCAL YEAR 2020 AND 2021. 
          YOU PWP AMENDMENT NUMBER FOUR AND IT'S ACCOMPANYING RESOLUTION. 
          UM, UM, BEFORE I GET THAT, UM, KAT METRO HAS, UM, SENT A REQUEST TODAY TO ADD EQUITABLE IN FRONT OR BEFORE, UM, TRANSIT ORIENTED, UM, DEVELOPMENT. 
          SO IF, UM, APPROVAL IS, IS MADE, THEN WE WOULD ADD, UM, EQUITABLE, UM, AS WELL TO THE AMENDMENT. 
          AND I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS. 
          HE MET HIM CHAIR. 
          THIS IS, THIS IS ASHBY. 
          JUST ONE THING BEFORE, UM, WE ASKED OPEN AND A SECOND, WE DID RECEIVE SOME QUESTIONS FROM SOME OF THE BOARD MEMBERS WONDERING WHAT, UM, THE LOCAL FUNDS MEANT. 
          AND WHEN, WHEN WE SAY LOCAL FUNDS AND THE CONTEXT OF THIS SPECIFIC FIRE PLANNING WORK PROGRAM AMENDMENT, WE MEAN, UM, UH, FUNDS GENERATED BY, UM, CAPITOL METRICALS AND SAYING IT'S NOT LOCAL, UM, FROM, 
          [00:50:01]
FROM, UH, CAMPO. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION CLARIFICATION. 
          IT'S LOCAL FUNDS FROM BASICALLY FROM CAP METRO, NOT CAMPO, CORRECT.

          [5. Discussion and Take Appropriate Action on February 8, 2021 Meeting Minutes (Part 2 of 2)]
TO CIRCLE BACK REAL QUICK. 
          UH, WE HAD SKIPPED THE, UM, MINUTES ON ITEM NUMBER FIVE, BECAUSE I THINK THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT, UM, COUNCIL MEMBER OR OUR MAYOR HOUSTON. 
          YOU HAD A QUESTION ON ITEM NUMBER ON THE MINUTES, AND WE WAITED FOR YOU TO GET ON TO, UM, DO YOU WANT TO ADDRESS THAT QUESTION? UM, MY QUESTION WAS WHEN WE DISCUSSED THE BYLAWS LAST TIME, BUT THE LINK TO THE, UH, VIDEO FROM THE MINUTES WAS NOT FINDING A POSITION FOR ME, SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO GO AND FIND IT. 
          YES, MA'AM IT WAS JANUARY MEETING, NOT FEBRUARY MEETING. 
          OKAY. 
          NEVERMIND. 
          WE, UM, AT OUR FEBRUARY MEETING, WE ADOPTED THE MINUTES REFLECTING THAT DISCUSSION. 
          SO THAT WAS WHEN YOU'VE SLEPT SINCE THEN. 
          THANK YOU. 
          APPRECIATE IT. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO IS THERE A MOTION TO ADOPT THE MINUTES, UM, FROM ITEM NUMBER FIVE? OKAY. 
          UM, UH, MAYOR PRO 10 MADISON HARPER. 
          THERE IS A MOTION OR A SECOND. 
          OKAY. 
          SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMBER. 
          MATEAH ALRIGHT. 
          UM, ANYBODY AGAINST, UM, ITEM NUMBER FIVE? ALRIGHT. 
          UH, MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY FOR ITEM NUMBER FIVE. 
          OKAY. 
          SO WE WILL JUMP BACK 
          [9. Briefing on CAMPO Transportation Policy Board Bylaws Subcommittee]
NOW TO ITEM NUMBER NINE, WHICH IS AN INFORMATION ONLY ITEM. 
          UM, AND I THINK, UH, LET'S SEE, TIM, ARE YOU TAKING THIS ITEM? I'LL START IT. 
          UH, YEAH. 
          UH, MADAM CHAIR, I'M GOING TO JUST START THIS AND THEN, UH, RUN THROUGH A VERY, UH, BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE MAJOR POINTS OF POTENTIAL AMENDMENT OF THE BYLAWS, AND THEN TURN IT OVER TO THE HARDWORKING SUBCOMMITTEE THAT YOU APPOINTED, UH, WHICH IS VICE CHAIR, KITCHEN, JUDGE, OAKLEY, COUNCILMEN MATEO, AND COMMISSIONER JONES. 
          UM, YOU ALL HAVE A COPY. 
          I THINK THE MOST CURRENT COPY OF BOTH THE BYLAWS AS THEY EXIST AND THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS, MOST OF THOSE AMENDMENTS WERE, UH, ARE REALLY CLEAN UP ITEMS. UH, SOME OF WHICH ARE REQUIRED TO BRING US INTO COMPLIANCE WITH OPEN MEETINGS LAW, BUT THE MAJOR, UM, UH, PROPOSED OR DISCUSSED, UM, AMENDMENTS THAT THE SUBCOMMITTEE REVIEWED HAD TO DO WITH OFFICERS UNDER SECTION THREE D UH, BY THE CREATION OF A NEW OFFICER POSITION FOR A SECRETARY AND A PROVISION THAT ALL THREE OFFICERS, THE CHAIR VICE CHAIR AND SECRETARY WOULD BE, UH, UH, COME FROM DIFFERENT COUNTIES WITHIN THE CAMP OR REGION. 
          THE OTHER AREA WAS IN SECTION THREE E UNDER MEETINGS, UH, WHILE THE CHAIR WOULD CONTINUE TO HAVE THE POWER TO PUT ITEMS ON THE AGENDA, UH, DISCUSSED AMENDMENT WOULD HAVE, UH, ANY AGREEMENT BY ANY SEVEN MEMBERS OF THE BOARD COULD ALSO PLACE ITEMS ON THE TBB AGENDA. 
          AND THEN THERE'S A PROVISION IN THERE THAT SAYS AS, UH, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE BYLAWS, UH, ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDER WOULD, UH, BE APPLICABLE TO, UH, YOUR MEETINGS. 
          UH, THE NEXT, UH, MAJOR AREA OF AMENDMENTS HAS TO DO WITH THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE UNDER SECTION FOUR. 
          A LOT OF WHICH IS CLARIFY CLARIFYING, BUT, UM, STILL EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. 
          UH, THE THREE OFFICERS PLUS THE, UH, JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT SIGNATORIES WOULD ALWAYS BE ON THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AND THE JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT SIGNATORIES WOULD 
          [00:55:01]
HAVE ONLY ONE REP EACH ON THE COMMITTEE. 
          THE CHAIR COULD APPOINT OTHER, UM, UM, PEOPLE TO, UH, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE FROM OTHER JURISDICTIONS, BUT THE TOTAL MEMBERSHIP OF THE COMMITTEE WOULD NEVER EQUAL OR EXCEED A QUORUM OF THE POLICY BOARD. 
          UH, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WOULD MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY, AND THE AMENDMENT, UH, ALLOWS NOW FOR ALTERNATES FOR EACH OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES BY THEIR RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS. 
          AND THEN THE FINAL AREA OF DISCUSSED AMENDMENTS HAD TO DO WITH, UH, THE ROLE OF THE TAC. 
          AND THERE'S TWO, UH, DISCUSSED AMENDMENTS THERE. 
          I THINK BOTH OF WHICH ARE IN BRACKETS, THEY HAVE TO DO WITH A, UH, UH, UH, A POSSIBLE AMENDMENT WHERE ALL TPB ACTION ITEMS WOULD BE POSTED FOR DISCUSSION AND RECOMMEND RECOMMENDATION AT A PRECEDING TAC MEETING. 
          AND, UM, NO TACK REVIEW OR RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE, UH, REQUIRED ON ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS FOR THE CAMPO OFFICE AND THE TPB. 
          WELL, THOSE ARE YOUR MAJOR AMENDMENTS THAT, UM, WERE DISCUSSED OR UNDER PROPOSAL FROM YOUR SUBCOMMITTEE. 
          AND WITH THAT, I'M GOING TO TURN IT OVER TO THE RESPECTIVE MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE FOR THEIR, FOR THEIR, UH, COMMENTS OR DISCUSSION. 
          SO, UM, WE'LL GO IN, I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE WAS A SPECIFIC CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE, BUT I WANT TO HEAR FROM ALL MEMBERS. 
          UM, AND SO, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER KITCHEN HAS HER HAND QUICKLY UP. 
          SO, UH, WE'LL, WE'LL HEAR FROM YOU FIRST AND THEN, UM, WE'LL GO AND, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER, UH, MATTEO NEXT AND THEN COMMISSIONER JONES AND THEN BATTING CLEANUP WILL BE JUDGED LOCALLY, SO, OKAY. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, UM, SO, UH, THANK YOU, TIM. 
          I THINK THAT, UH, YOU OUTLINED THE MAJOR CHANGES. 
          I JUST WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE THAT, UM, WHAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS THAN WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT AS A GROUP IS THAT WE, WE REALLY SIMPLIFIED THINGS. 
          AND I THINK WE WERE, WE WERE ALL IN AGREEMENT ON THIS THAT WE WOULD DO IS WE WOULD SUGGEST ADDING A SECRETARY POSITION INSTEAD OF TRYING TO DO A SECOND VICE CHAIR. 
          SO WHAT WE'VE, WHAT WE'RE SUGGESTING IS TO ADD A SECRETARY POSITION, TO ALLOW FOR SOME MORE OPPORTUNITY FOR LEADERSHIP, BUT NOT DO ANY OF THE OTHER MORE INVOLVED KINDS OF THINGS THAT WERE PROPOSED. 
          IN OTHER WORDS, EVERYTHING ELSE IS PRETTY MUCH THE SAME. 
          WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT ANY KIND OF ROTATION OF POSITIONS. 
          WE LEFT ALL THAT OUT. 
          WE KEPT WITH WHERE WE WERE, AND WE WERE REALLY JUST TALKING ABOUT, UM, ADDING A S A SECRETARY POSITION. 
          SO, AND THE FEELING FROM THE COMMITTEE, AND I'LL LET OTHERS SPEAK TO THIS IS THAT, BUT THAT, YOU KNOW, ALLOW FOR SOME ADDITIONAL, UM, OPPORTUNITY FOR LEADERSHIP, BUT THAT THE OTHER THINGS THAT WE WERE THINKING ABOUT WHERE WE'RE NOT REALLY NEEDED, UH, THAT WE DIDN'T NEED A SECOND VICE CHAIR, AND WE DIDN'T NEED TO GUARANTEE ANY KIND OF ROTATIONS AMONGST THEM. 
          SO, SO THAT'S THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE THAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE IS MUCH MORE SIMPLE THAN WHAT WE HAD IN FRONT OF US, UH, BEFORE THE OTHER THING I WANT TO COMMENT ON IS THE, UM, UH, THE, UM, THE TAC, UH, AND THAT'S ON PAGE 11. 
          I THINK WE'RE, I BELIEVE WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE IN TERMS OF WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH THERE. 
          WE'RE, UH, WE'RE STILL KINDA TALKING A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE LANGUAGE, AND SO I MIGHT HAVE SOME SUGGESTIONS ABOUT SOME MORE CLARIFYING LANGUAGE, BUT AS TIM PUT, PUT IT, WHAT WE WANTED TO MAKE CLEAR IS THAT ADMINISTRATIVE ITEMS FOR, UH, YOU KNOW, FOR, UH, CAMPO, UH, STAFFING AND OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE TYPE OF ACTIONS DID NOT NEED TO GO TO THE TAC SO THAT, YOU KNOW, ANY OFFICE ADMINISTRATION OR WHOM HUMAN RESOURCE ISSUES OR STAFFING ISSUES, UH, THOSE ARE THINGS FOR, TO DEAL WITH, AND THERE'S NOT A NEED FOR THEM TO GO TO THE TECH. 
          SO, UM, THE LANGUAGE THAT'S IN THE BACKUP RIGHT NOW IS INTENDED. 
          I BELIEVE IN MY, UM, COLLEAGUES CAN SPEAK TO THIS TOO, BUT I THINK WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE THAT WE WERE TRYING TO GET AT ADMINISTRATIVE THINGS. 
          SO, UM, THOSE ARE THE TWO THINGS I'M WANTING TO, TO POINT OUT. 
          I THINK, TIM, YOU, YOU LAID OUT WELL, EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WE TALKED ABOUT, OKAY. 
          COUNCIL MEMBER MATEAH, UM, WE'D LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU NEXT ON THAT, PLEASE. 
          WELL, FIRST OF ALL, I DIDN'T WANT TO SAY THIS. 
          [01:00:01]
I THOUGHT THIS WHOLE COMMITTEE WAS ABOUT TO BE AS HARD AS THE COWBOY SIGNING DAK PRESCOTT. 
          AND IT WORKED OUT VERY, VERY SMOOTH. 
          I WAS, I WAS VERY IMPRESSED. 
          WE HAD A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS AND IDEAS, BUT ULTIMATELY, UM, WE CAME TO THE SAME CONCLUSIONS. 
          I APPRECIATE US APPROACHING THE SUBJECT OF HAVING A CANDID CONVERSATION ABOUT, UM, THE REGIONS CHANGED THE EXPANSION, THE IDEAS AND GOALS, AND TO HAVE MORE INCLUSIVE ASPECTS WHERE VARIOUS PARTS OF THE REGION AT A LEADERSHIP LEVEL AND WORKING FROM THAT, I THINK THAT'S GREAT. 
          AND, UM, I, I'VE GOT TO SAY OVERALL, AND I'VE GOT TO THINK OF MY COLLEAGUES AND, YOU KNOW, I'M THE NEW KID ON THE BLOCK CAREER. 
          UM, I THINK THAT IT SETS A GOOD PRECEDENT MOVING FORWARD AND TRYING TO GET THINGS DONE. 
          YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I'VE HEARD EVER SINCE I'VE BEEN ON THIS, YOU KNOW, AUGUST BOARD IS THAT, HEY, WAIT A MINUTE. 
          WE MAY NOT LIKE THIS, THIS OR THAT. 
          WELL GUYS, WEREN'T THE ONES IN CHARGE. 
          SO IF WE DON'T LIKE SOMETHING, LET'S GO AHEAD AND LET'S WORK ON IT. 
          AND THIS IS THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF, HEY, WE DON'T LIKE SOMETHING LET'S WORK ON IT AND GO FROM THERE. 
          UM, I DO LIKE THE LINE OF DELINEATION FOR ASHBY REGARDING, UM, WHAT'S ADMINISTRATIVE IN NATURE AND WORKING FROM THAT, I THINK THAT WAS GREAT. 
          UM, TAN ASHBY. 
          I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU GUYS GIVING YOUR CLARIFY THOUGHTS ON IT, AND I APPRECIATE YOU DOING IN THE BACK AND FORTH AND TALKING ABOUT THE VERNACULAR THAT WAS APPLICABLE OR NOT PER SE. 
          UM, THAT'S GREAT. 
          AND THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD WORK. 
          SO, UM, YOU KNOW, I REALLY APPRECIATE THIS AND THAT. 
          I THINK IT CAME OUT WITH A GOOD PRODUCT. 
          UM, I HAVE, UH, WE'LL GO TO, UM, COMMISSIONER JONES NEXT, BUT MAYBE ONE OF YOU ALL OR SOMETHING, SOMEBODY ELSE CAN ANSWER THIS IN YOUR COMMENTS ON THE TAC ISSUE. 
          UM, I, I, I THINK WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO CLARIFY IS NOTHING ADMINISTRATIVE, UM, BUT I THINK THERE'S SOME OTHER THINGS THAT, FOR EXAMPLE, UM, YOU KNOW, LIKE THE WILLIAMS DRIVE STUDY THAT, THAT THE PA, UH, CAMPO DID, UM, THAT'S VERY SPECIFIC TO NOT ONLY GEORGETOWN, BUT A VERY SPECIFIC AREA OF GEORGETOWN. 
          AND I'M NOT SURE THAT STUDIES THAT ARE SPECIFICALLY TARGETED AT SPECIFIC AREAS, UM, SHOULD, UH, BE REVIEWED BY THE TAC. 
          BUT I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL TOOK THAT INTO CONSIDERATION, MAYBE COMMISSIONER JONES OR JUDGE HUGHLEY Y'ALL CAN ADDRESS THAT. 
          MR. JONES, YOUR OKAY. 
          NO, THANK YOU AGAIN. 
          AND THANK YOU AGAIN FOR POINTING THEM IN THAT COMMITTEE. 
          I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE THAT COMMISSIONER BEING VOLUN-TOLD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          OH, THAT'S RIGHT. 
          AND RUDY WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DOING ALL THE TALKING FOR US ANYWAYS, SO I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE EVEN BOTHERING THE OTHER REST OF US, BUT, UH, NO, UH, NO, WE, IT WAS A GOOD COMMITTEE AND I THINK WHAT MY OTHER TWO COLLEAGUES MENTIONED WAS CORRECT. 
          WE DID NOT HAVE AGREEMENT ON THE, WHAT WE'VE SENT TO THE TAC, YOU KNOW, UH, I DON'T, I DON'T THINK THAT THE INTENTION WAS FOR THE TAC TO BE INVOLVED IN SOMETHING THAT WAS SPECIFIC TO LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE LULING PROJECT OR SOMETHING THAT'S GOING ON IN SAN MARCUS. 
          UH, I DON'T WANT TO ADD MORE TO THE TAC THAN WHAT THEY'RE ALREADY HAVING TO DO CAUSE WE'RE HAVING, YOU KNOW, MOST OF US COUNTIES, I KNOW TRAVIS COUNTY AND AUSTIN YOU'LL HAVE A LOT MORE RESOURCES TO PUT TOWARDS THE TIME Y'ALL SPEND ON TAC, BUT OUR REPRESENTATIVES ARE PRETTY, UH, THAT'S A, THAT'S A STRAIN ON THEM TO START ADDING MORE TO WHAT THEY'RE ASKED TO, TO CONSIDER ON THAT TAG. 
          SO, UH, I THINK THAT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT WE, WE DIDN'T COME TO A COMPLETE AGREEMENT ON. 
          SO JUST TO CLARIFY, YOU'RE SAYING THAT THE THINGS THAT ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW, UM, THAT WOULD BE AN INSERT ITEM. 
          NUMBER FIVE, THERE WAS NOT AGREEMENT AMONGST THE COMMITTEE ON THAT PARTICULAR ISSUE. 
          IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, MR. JONES? NO, NO, MA'AM THERE WASN'T. 
          OKAY. 
          WELL, W W WITH THE CHAIRMAN, LET ME JUST SAY THAT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT AS A COMMITTEE. 
          WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THE YELLOW LANGUAGE. 
          I THINK WHAT, UH, COMMISSIONER JONES IS BRINGING UP IS WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THAT AT ALL, BUT I WOULD AGREE WITH YOU THAT IF IT'S A, IF IT'S NOT A REGIONAL ISSUE, IT DOESN'T GO TO TAX. 
          SO, BUT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THAT IN THE COMMITTEE, RIGHT? YEAH. 
          I'M JUST TRYING TO GET TO, TO SORT OUT WHAT, WHAT BASICALLY THE COMMITTEE AGREED ON AND MOVE THAT FORWARD. 
          IF THERE'S SOMETHING THAT WASN'T AGREED ON THAT CAN BE ADDRESSED LATER, BUT, UM, SO THAT WAS AN AGENDA. 
          YEAH. 
          JUDGE OAKLEY, ANY ADDITIONAL COMMENTS? UM, I'M HERE TO TESTIFY. 
          THERE WAS ACTUALLY LAUGHTER AT THE SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING WE HAD WAS GOOD. 
          UM, AND YEAH, EVERYTHING THAT JOAN SAID, I AGREE. 
          WE, WE DIDN'T, WE DIDN'T COME TO ANY CONCLUSIONS ON THAT, BUT IT'S, IT'S, IT'S ALL IN THE WORDING OF HOW WE ACCOMPLISH THE SAME THING. 
          IT'S ACT, DOESN'T MAKE IT TAKING UP THINGS THAT ARE ADMINISTRATIVE OR, UH, NOT REGIONAL, ANYTHING LIKE THAT. 
          UM, HEY AND BURNET COUNTY, I PAY A GUY TO GO TO THAT. 
          THIS IS NOT AN EMPLOYEE. 
          [01:05:01]
I HAVE TO PAY A CONSULTING ENGINEER TO GO TO THAT. 
          SO I NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S WORTHWHILE. 
          SO, AND, AND SO FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD, UM, NEXT MONTH FOR ACTION. 
          SO JUST TO MAKE, FOR CLARITY TO SAY EVERY THING THAT IS SHUFFLED MOON, AS, UH, IN THE TRACK CHANGES VERSION OF THE DOCUMENT, IS IT RAD THE COMMITTEE SUPPORT EXCEPT FOR WHAT'S YELLOW, WHAT'S THE RECOMMENDATION OUT OF THE COMMITTEE CHAIR TO SAY YES MA'AM. 
          AND I THINK THAT WHAT JAMES JUST SAID, THIS IS QUITE ACCURATE. 
          IT'S ALL IN THE VERNACULAR LANGUAGE. 
          SO I'M NOT QUITE SURE WE WANT TO MAYBE ASK HIM TO COME UP WITH SOME PROPOSAL LANGUAGE OR ANYTHING ALONG THOSE LINES, IF WE THINK IT'S GOOD, IT'S GOOD, BUT SOMETHING THAT HAS SOME CLARITY. 
          UM, YEAH. 
          AND, AND I GUESS THE COMMENT I WANT TO ADD JUST OUT OF, UM, AND I BELIEVE CALDWELL COUNTY HAS TO, UM, PAY A CONSULTANT TO SHOW UP FOR TAC AND, AND HOW TO HAVE RESPECT FOR THOSE, THAT FOR MOST OF THEM, UM, IT'S, UH, OTHER DUTIES AS ASSIGNED ON THEIR JOB DESCRIPTION. 
          UM, I, I REALLY WANT TO BE RESPECTFUL OF THE TAX TIME AND, AND I THINK ALL OF US DO. 
          UM, IF, IF YOU ALL, COULD YOU, IF YOU'RE NOT SPEAKING, I THINK WE'LL GET YOU SOME BACK. 
          MR. HOWARD, IT MIGHT, UM, THAT'S, THAT'S CORRECT. 
          UM, SHARE LONG, UH, CALDWELL COUNTY DOES HAVE TO PAY A PERSON TO ATTEND THE TAC MEETING. 
          UM, YOU KNOW, WE FORMERLY HAD HAD UNPAID VOLUNTEERS, UH, BUT STILL, UH, HAVE TO BE RESPECTFUL OF THEIR TIME TOO. 
          SO, UH, WE HAD WE'D WANT A LOT MORE INFORMATION REGARDING ANY MORE DUTIES ASSIGNED TO THE ATTACK. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER. 
          I SEE MAYOR MORGAN HAS HIS HAND UP. 
          YEAH, JUST, I GUESS I'D BE CURIOUS FOR THE COMMITTEE. 
          I DON'T REMEMBER. 
          I DON'T MEAN, BUT MAYBE I MISSED IT. 
          UM, I DON'T REMEMBER THE, THE TECH COMMITTEE BEING THAT BIG OF A DISCUSSION ON THE INITIAL BYLAWS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN JANUARY AND, YOU KNOW, A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THERE WAS A TAC SUBCOMMITTEE, UH, WHERE WE EXAMINED THE TAC. 
          WE, I THINK WE MADE IT SMALLER. 
          THERE WAS SOME CONCERN THAT IT GOT TO BE MUCH MORE POLICY DRIVEN THAN TECHNICAL DRIVEN. 
          AND SO I WANT US TO BE VERY CAREFUL BECAUSE THERE'S ALREADY BEEN A COMMITTEE IN PLACE THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT THAT COMMITTEE IS NOT TO BE POLICY DRIVEN. 
          AND I MEAN, AND I KNOW OUR EMPLOYEE THAT SERVES ON THAT FELT THAT SAT STARTED GETTING, UH, AND, UM, SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE KEEP IT VERY TECHNICAL AND NOT POLISHING. 
          SO I THINK WHAT HEARING FOR NOW IS, UM, LEAVE THAT PIECE OUT UNLESS THERE'S SOME, UM, WONDERFUL CLARIFYING LANGUAGE THAT CAN CAPTURE THE SPIRIT OF EVERYTHING YOU SAID, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER KITCHEN. 
          YEAH. 
          I WANTED TO ASK TIM TO SPEAK TO THIS. 
          THE, AND WHEN YOU SAY LEAVE THAT LANGUAGE OUT A CHAIR, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE YELLOWED LANGUAGE? I THINK THE YELLOW PART. 
          SO I WANT TO ATTEMPT TO, COULD YOU CLARIFY THE YELLOW LANGUAGE IS SOMETHING THAT, THAT YOU BROWN TO ALL OF US AFTER OUR MEETING, BECAUSE I THINK, BUT I'M NOT REMEMBERING CORRECTLY. 
          I THINK YOU FOUND IT IN THE TECH BYLAWS. 
          IS THAT RIGHT? COULD YOU JUST EXPLAIN TO US WHERE THAT NO, NO, THAT DID NOT COME FROM THE TAC BYLAWS AND YES, IT WAS ADDED AFTER, UH, BECAUSE THERE WAS THE DISCUSSION WAS, AS I RECALLED IT AT THE SUBCOMMITTEE, THERE WAS DISCUSSION BACK AND FORTH ABOUT THE ONE PROVISION THAT IS ALREADY IN EXISTENCE THAT SAYS THE TPP CAN BY MAJORITY VOTE, ADD CERTAIN ITEMS TO TAC REVIEW. 
          AND THEN THERE WAS SEPARATE DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT'S IN THERE RIGHT NOW IN THE BRACKETS. 
          BUT I WANT TO ADD, AND MAYBE THIS PARTIALLY RESPONDS TO, SO THE BRACKETS, I'M SORRY, BRACKET LANGUAGES IS IN THE CURRENT BYLAWS. 
          IS THAT WHAT YOU'VE BUILT? NO, NO, NO, NO. 
          THE BRACKET, THE BRACKET IN LANGUAGE IS, IS, UH, BASICALLY TO DESIGNATE SOMETHING THAT WAS ADDED 
          [01:10:01]
AFTER THE FACT. 
          BUT I WOULD SAY, UM, I WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER TO, YOU KNOW, I JUST HEARD FROM, UM, VICE CHAIR KITCHEN, THE AGREEMENT TO THE BASIC ISSUE IS I UNDERSTAND WHICH WAS THE QUESTION OF YOU AS A BOARD. 
          I THINK DON'T WANT LOCAL ONLY PROJECTS TO GO THROUGH THE TAC. 
          IF ALL THEY ARE IS LOCAL, IF THEY'RE WILLIAM STRIVE OR THEIR LULING MASTERS STUDY, ET CETERA, ET CETERA, I'M WONDERING, AND I'M, I'M QUITE WILLING TO WORK WITH THE SUBCOMMITTEE TO TRY TO COME UP WITH SOME VERNACULAR LANGUAGE THAT ADDRESSES THAT ISSUE. 
          UM, BUT IT'S UP TO YOU CHAIR. 
          SO HERE IS MY, MY THOUGHTS SINCE, UM, THIS WAS NOT NECESSARILY SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, AND I'LL LEAVE IT UP TO THE WILL OF THE BOARD, BUT IT'S NOT NECESSARILY SOMETHING THAT, UM, WAS ORIGINALLY PART OF THE SCOPE AND IN THE SPIRIT OF TRYING TO GET THIS OVER THE GOAL LINE, HOW ABOUT WE DO THIS, UM, LEAVE THAT PART OUT FOR NOW, UM, THE ITEM, WHAT BECAME NUMBER FIVE UNDER THE TACK AND, UM, MOVE THE REST OF IT FORWARD. 
          UM, AND IF YOU, YOU KNOW, THE COMMITTEE COMES UP WITH SOMETHING ELSE, THEN WE CAN ADD THAT. 
          UM, AFTER EVERY, AFTER THE POLICY BOARDS HAD A CHANCE TO SEE, UM, SOMETHING ON THAT, UH, CHAIR. 
          YES. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, SINCE WE'RE NOT VOTING TODAY AND THIS IS JUST FOR, FOR EVERYONE TO REVIEW TODAY, I FIT BY THE TIME WE VOTE IN APRIL, IF THE COMMITTEE, YOU KNOW, I WANT TO TAKE TIM UP ON HIS LANGUAGE BECAUSE YOU KNOW, IT IS SOMETHING WE DID TALK ABOUT AS A COMMITTEE. 
          WE JUST DIDN'T WHEN WE REACHED AGREEMENT ON THE CO ON THE CONCEPT. 
          AND I THINK WE CAN AGREE ON THE CONCEPT THAT YOU BROUGHT UP TODAY THAT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT, BUT WE WOULD WANT TO ADD. 
          AND THAT'S THAT THE CLEARANCE OUT REGIONAL, I THINK WE CAN COME UP WITH SOME LANGUAGE AND, YOU KNOW, WE'VE, WE'VE BEEN EMAILING EACH OTHER. 
          I THINK I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE IT OFF WHEN WE VOTE ON IT IN, UH, IN, UH, IN APRIL. 
          WELL, IF, IF THERE IS LANGUAGE, I WOULD SAY IT HAS TO BE OUT SEVEN DAYS BEFORE IT CAN'T BE LAST MINUTE. 
          AND CAUSE W YOU KNOW, THIS HAS BEEN ON OUR AGENDA SINCE OCTOBER. 
          SO, UM, LET'S, UH, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S NOT, YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S FINE, IF Y'ALL DON'T HAVE TIME TO GET IT DONE BEFORE THEN, UM, IT'S, YOU KNOW, THAT THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT IS SLOWING DOWN, ANYBODY'S WORK ON ANYTHING. 
          OKAY. 
          I THINK WE COULD HAVE IT OUT AND, YOU KNOW, WELL, BEFORE SEVEN DAYS AND THREE WEEKS BEFORE OR WHATEVER, CAN I ADD ONE THING ON IT COMMISSIONER ALONG THAT I, YOU KNOW, I HAVE CONCERNS WITH THE LANGUAGE AS IS ON ALL OTHER AGENDA ITEMS. I MEAN, THAT'S A VERY BROAD PERSPECTIVE AND ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE IT'S JUST A REPEAT OF WHAT WE DO AT, UH, ON THIS POLICY BOARD. 
          SO IT NEEDS TO BE PRETTY CLEAR, UH, FOR ME TO SUPPORT A CHANGE. 
          BECAUSE AGAIN, I THINK THERE'S A ROLE FOR THE TECHNICAL COMMITTEE. 
          UH, I THINK IT'S AN IMPORTANT ROLE, BUT IT'S CALLED TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE. 
          AND SO, UM, I'M OPEN TO SEEING THAT LANGUAGE, BUT I WILL NOT SUPPORT SOMETHING AS BROAD AS THAT IS. 
          AND THEN I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION FOR THE BOARD, UH, OR THE SUBCOMMITTEE, UM, WHERE JOHN HOW'D, Y'ALL COME UP WITH THE NUMBER SEVEN TO PUT IT ON AN AGENDA ITEM FROM, I GUESS, RIGHT NOW IT'S JUST THE CHAIR AND THE ASHBY THAT DETERMINES WHAT GOES ON. 
          WELL, I'LL GO TO THAT ONE RIGHT NOW. 
          I BELIEVE IT WAS FOR A COMMISSIONER'S COURT. 
          YOU HAVE TO HAVE TWO AND THERE'S TOTAL MEMBERS. 
          AND WE STARTED KICKING AROUND A NUMBER AND I BELIEVE TUG YOU. 
          I THINK YOU'RE THE ONE THAT RECOMMENDED A LOT LARGER NUMBER SUCH THAT IT IS A NUMBER THAT IS LIKE AROUND A THIRD, I BELIEVE. 
          IS THAT NOT CORRECT? WELL, THAT'S WHERE YOU ARE NOW WITH THIS PROPOSAL WHERE YOU'RE CURRENTLY AT 21, AND THIS WOULD PUT YOU AT ONE THIRD, THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT WHETHER YOU SHOULD GO LIKE COMMISSIONER'S COURT, YOU SHOULD GO SLIGHTLY OVER A THIRD TO EIGHT OR NINE, BUT YOU'RE ALL SETTLED ON THE SEVENTH. 
          THAT'S RIGHT. 
          I SHOULD KNOW THIS, BUT RIGHT NOW IT'S UP TO THE CHAIR AND THE ASHBY TO BRING AGENDA ITEMS. IS THAT CORRECT? NOW, MAYOR? UM, 
          [01:15:01]
THE WAY THAT, THE ITEM. 
          SO CURRENTLY IT SAYS THAT, UM, THE CHAIR, UM, OR THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CAN, UM, CAN RECOMMEND AN ITEM BE PUT ON THERE IF, IF THE CHAIR HAS NOT PUT IT ON THERE. 
          UM, AND I, I, I, I DON'T, I HEARD THE QUESTION FROM SOMEBODY OVER THE COURSE OF THIS, UM, IN THAT NUMERICAL, WAS THAT TO BE SEVEN PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS? NO, NO, MADAM CHAIR, WE HAD THAT CONVERSATION AND, UM, WE WERE JUST, WE PUSHED IT UP TO SEVEN, JUST REASONABLE FACT THAT WE, AT FIRST, WE GOT ABOUT TWO, THREE, AND WE'RE LIKE, OKAY, WE NEED TO HAVE A LOWER THRESHOLD. 
          AND SO WE JUST MADE IT UP TO SEVEN BETWEEN OUR EQUATIONS ON THAT. 
          NO ONE IN A DAY COULD JUST DO IT ON THEIR OWN. 
          YEAH. 
          HEY, I HOPE THAT THIS WOULD BE A VERY HYPOTHETICAL SITUATION TO WHERE THE CHAIR, I MEAN, CAN'T IMAGINE JUST NOT LETTING SOMETHING BEING ON THE AGENDA AND OUR DEMOCRATIC PROCESS, IT'S EITHER MAJORITY LACK IT OR THEY DON'T. 
          I JUST, I HOPE I HOPE THIS NUMBER WE COME UP WITH IS REALLY JUST AN EXERCISE. 
          I, I CAN'T IMAGINE IT BEING, UM, EVER UTILIZED. 
          SO HOLD ON. 
          I DON'T WANT IT. 
          I'M ALL ABOUT PUTTING STUFF ON THE AGENDA, BUT THESE MEETINGS ARE LONG ENOUGH AND I DON'T WANT IT TO BECOME MORE JUST WILLY NILLY. 
          CERTAIN GEN EDS ARE GETTING ON THERE BECAUSE SOMETHING DIDN'T AGREE. 
          YOU KNOW, WE DIDN'T, YOU KNOW, EVEN I'M INCLUDING MYSELF, I DIDN'T AGREE WITH THE MAJORITY THAT DECIDED SOMETHING. 
          AND SO I THINK IT'S FAIR TO HAVE THAT NUMBER. 
          I WAS JUST CURIOUS HOW THAT CAME ABOUT AND I'M OKAY WITH IT. 
          BUT, UH, I SURE DON'T WANT TO GET MISUSED AND, UM, MAKE THESE MEETINGS. 
          POSITS ARE, AS LONG AS SOME OF US DON'T GET PAID WHILE WE'RE SITTING ON THIS CALL, WE APPRECIATE THAT. 
          UH, YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO BE BILLING RIGHT NOW, MAYOR. 
          YEP. 
          IF I WOULD ON THIS LANGUAGE, ON THE WHOLE TECH, UH, TECHNICAL COMMITTEE, IF TONY COULD COME UP WITH SOMETHING THAT PUT OUT TO THE SUBCOMMITTEE, I DON'T THINK THE SUBCOMMITTEE NEEDS TO MEET ON THIS PER SE, IF THEY WANT TO PUT IT OUT AND SEE IF THERE'S AGREEMENT AMONG COMMITTEE, SOMETHING THAT HE COULD COME UP WITH TO ME, WE EITHER ADOPT IT, TWEAK IT OR NOT ADOPT ANYTHING AND LEAVE IT EXACTLY THE WAY IT WAS. 
          UM, YEAH. 
          AND I JUST, I THINK BEING MINDFUL OF WHAT WE HEARD, PARTICULARLY FROM THE SMALLER COMMUNITIES OF NOT WANTING TO OVERBURDEN THE TAC WITH THINGS THAT, THAT ARE NOT UNDER THAT PURVIEW. 
          UM, SO IF WE CAPTURED THE SPIRIT OF Y'ALL'S DISCUSSION, SO WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO AN ACTION ITEM ON THIS AT OUR NEXT MEETING NUMBER KITCHEN. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, I WANTED TO, THERE WERE TWO THINGS THAT WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT AS A, AS A SUBCOMMITTEE, UH, THAT I JUST WANTED TO RAISE HERE IN CASE THERE'S AN INTEREST IN, IN ADDRESSING THEM SO THAT WE DON'T JUST IN CASE THERE'S A, WE TALKED ABOUT ADDING A SECRETARY, BUT THEN WE DIDN'T, WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT WHAT THE SECRETARY DOES. 
          SO WHAT WAS SUGGESTED TO ME WAS TWO THINGS THAT WE MIGHT ADD. 
          ONE WAS THAT THERE WAS A PROVISION RIGHT NOW THAT IF THE CHAIR IS NOT PRESENT, THAT IF THE CHAIR AND VICE CHAIR, AND THEN THE, UM, THE BODY AS A WHOLE WILL DECIDE WHO YOU LEADS THE MEETING, MY THOUGHT WAS IF WE WANTED TO, WE COULD SAY THAT IF THE CHAIR AND THE VICE CHAIR ARE NOT PRESENT, THE SECRETARY WOULD TAKE ON LEADING THE MEETINGS. 
          SO THAT WAS ONE ITEM. 
          UH, AND AGAIN, WE JUST DIDN'T THINK TO TALK ABOUT IT AS A COMMITTEE. 
          UM, THE OTHER THING WAS THE SECRETARY IS GENERALLY HAVE SOME LEVEL OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE MINUTES. 
          AND SO WE THOUGHT, OR I THOUGHT THAT, YOU KNOW, WE COULD ADD THAT TOO, BUT AGAIN, SOME COMMITTEE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THIS AT ALL. 
          IT JUST, WE JUST DIDN'T THINK TO, AND IT JUST OCCURRED TO ME TODAY. 
          SO I THOUGHT I SHOULD RAISE IT. 
          VICE-CHAIR KITCHEN, UM, AND OTHER, UH, NPO ORGANIZATIONS, SECRETARY ALSO CERTIFIES IT. 
          SO, UM, HOW ABOUT THE, I THINK I HEARD COUNCIL MEMBER, KITCHEN SAY, UM, TWO THINGS, ONE THE ROTATION, OR IF THE CHAIR AND THE VICE-CHAIR NOT AT THE MEETING, THEN THE SECRETARY, UM, WOULD SERVE AS THE, UH, PRESIDING OFFICER FOR THAT MEETING. 
          AND, UM, THEN, UM, WHAT WAS THE SECOND ONE COUNCIL MEMBER KITCHEN? YOU SAID THEY COULD DO WITH THE MINUTE? I THINK USUALLY A SECRETARY HAS SOME LEVEL OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR REVIEWING 
          [01:20:01]
THE MINUTES THAT THEY WOULD JUST, THAT THAT WOULD BE ONE MORE STEP AND STAFF WOULD PREPARE ON, SEND THEM TO THE SECRETARY TO REVIEW, AND THEN THEY WOULD NOT NECESSARILY IN ANYTHING ELSE, BUT JUST ANOTHER SET OF EYES ON IT. 
          RIGHT. 
          GOTCHA. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, IF, IF Y'ALL TIM, IF Y'ALL WANT TO, UM, INCLUDE THAT AND BRING THAT FORWARD AS WELL. 
          I DON'T KNOW THAT I DON'T SEE ANY BIG OBJECTIONS TO THAT. 
          UM, THE MECHANICS OF THAT WOULD BE THAT IF WE ADD THAT POSITION THAT WE WOULDN'T DO THAT UNTIL THE NEXT OFFICER ELECTION, WE WOULDN'T DO THAT MID YEAR. 
          OR IS THERE A THOUGHT OF TRYING FROM THE MECHANICS OF IT, MAKE IT, WHEN WOULD YOU DO THAT? I DON'T THINK WE TALKED ABOUT THAT EITHER JUDGE IT, BUT IT'S SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT IF WE VOTE TO HAVE IT. 
          OKAY. 
          IS IT IMMEDIATE OR DO WE WAIT AND IMPLEMENT IT ON THE NEXT OFFICER ELECTION, WHICH WE DO, I GUESS IN WHAT DECEMBER OR JANUARY? JANUARY. 
          AND IF YOU DON'T, IF YOU DON'T SAY ANYTHING, OTHERWISE IF YOU ADOPT THE BYLAW, IT IS EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY AND YOU'VE GOT A VACANCY IMMEDIATELY. 
          SO YOU FILL A VACANCY UNTIL JANUARY OF NEXT YEAR. 
          THAT WOULD BE THE WAY IT WOULD NORMALLY, YOU KNOW, UM, JUDGE UGLY, DESPITE THE FACT THAT YOU SAID, YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD DO THIS WITHOUT ANOTHER MEETING. 
          UM, WHY DON'T YOU ALL CONVENE ONE MORE TIME AND MAKE A RECOMMENDATION ON WHETHER, UM, THAT SHOULD CAUSE THAT YOU CAN FOOTNOTE IT, THAT THAT PORTION COMES INTO EFFECT IN JANUARY OF 2022, OR YOU CAN, UM, SAY IMMEDIATELY AND WE'LL HOLD AN ELECTION FOR SECRETARY. 
          SO WHY DON'T Y'ALL MAKE A RECOMMENDATION ON THAT. 
          AND TO ME IT'S EITHER, OR, I MEAN, I CAN'T FIGURE SAY TIMBER, YOU KNOW, EITHER IMMEDIATE, RIGHT? SO IN THE MADAM CHAIR, YOU'RE SAYING WE HAVE A MEETING WITH THE MEETING, DOESN'T HAVE TO BE AN HOUR. 
          YOU CAN BE ABOUT 20, 30 MINUTES. 
          IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE SIDE TO TALK. 
          IT'D BE FIVE MINUTES, BE SHORTER. 
          I'M SURE AS A SISTER AND I, I'M PRETTY GOOD AT USUALLY THE BYLAWS AND BOTTLING SERIES THIS TIME. 
          I THINK THEY'RE DOING A GREAT JOB, BUT I'M , AND I'M STILL KIND OF NEW HERE AND I'M STILL LEARNING BYLAWS AND I HAVE TO STOP AND THINK, WAIT A MINUTE, WHERE DOES IT SAY THAT? AND I HAVE TO REMEMBER SOME THAT JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT. 
          SO I HAVE A SUGGESTION AND SECTION THREE, I DIDN'T SEE OFFICERS THAT THE ENSURE THAT OUR CHAIR ADVISOR AND THIS NEW SECRETARY POSITION ARE VOTING MEMBERS. 
          AND MY SUGGESTION IS AT THE END OF THE TRANSPORTATION POLICY BOARD AND ALEXA CHAIRPERSON, THE VICE CHAIRPERSON, AND THE SECRETARY SEMI-COLON EACH SHALL BE OF THE CURRENT VOTING MEMBER OF THE TPV. 
          AND THEN NEW SENTENCE STARTS OUT WITH EACH SHALL SERVE FOR A TERM OF TWO YEARS. 
          AND THAT'S A SUGGESTION THAT I WOULD ADD TO MAKE SURE THAT  CROSS, WOULD YOU, IF YOU'VE GOT THAT IN WRITING, WOULD YOU SEND THAT TO TIM, PLEASE? I WILL DO THAT. 
          GREAT. 
          YEAH, IT SHOULDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. 
          I MEAN, JUST, YOU KNOW, MAKING SURE THAT ALL THE EVERYTHING'S IN ORDER, ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON ITEM NUMBER NINE, COUNCIL MEMBER ALTER. 
          I JUST SENSE IF PEOPLE FELT LIKE WE SHOULD HAVE, UM, SOME KIND OF TERM LIMIT ON THE OFFICER POSITIONS, DID Y'ALL DISCUSS THAT IN THE SUB COMMITTEE? NO, NO, NO. 
          WE DID NOT PROVIDE THEM SHARE WHEN YOU'RE THINKING ANYWAY WAS A SADOMASOCHIST ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY HAVE TO WORK. 
          OKAY. 
          I USUALLY TAKE CARE OF THE TERM LIMITS. 
          YEAH, I THINK THE, UM, WELL, I IT'S NOT EVER BEEN IN THERE IN THE PAST. 
          I DON'T KNOW. 
          UM, I THINK AUSTIN MIGHT BE THE ONLY GROUP ON THE POLICY BOARD THAT HAS TERM LIMITS BUILT INTO Y'ALL'S CHARTER. 
          I DON'T KNOW THAT ANY OTHER THE ENTITIES DO WE DO TWO CHAIR. 
          OKAY. 
          THERE WE GO. 
          COUNTIES DON'T HAVE IT. 
          SO, WELL, I, I GUESS WHAT I MEANT MORE AS LIKE, NOT, I WASN'T THINKING THAT YOU WOULD BE LIMITED LIKE OVER 
          [01:25:01]
TIME FROM SERVING A NUMBER OF TERMS, BUT IN TERMS OF, YOU KNOW, THERE, I BELIEVE THERE'S STILL A SUGGESTION HERE THAT THE CHAIR SHOULD MOVE TO THE S TO THE VICE CHAIR, YOU KNOW, WHEN THE, THE YEAR OR THE TWO YEARS ARE UP, UM, FOR THE TERM. 
          UM, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW, AFTER THAT FIRST CHAIR'S TERM WAS UP, WHETHER WE WANTED TO ALLOW THAT, TO HAVE THAT CHAIR TO BE ABLE TO STAY IN PERPETUITY OR NOT, THAT MIGHT BE SUBJECT TO A VOTE. 
          UM, RIGHT NOW IT'S NOT IN THERE. 
          AND WOULDN'T THAT IT, TIM, IS THAT NOT THAT'S DEPICTED IN THE JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT? NO, IT'S NOT ADDRESSED ANYWHERE. 
          IT'S SOMETHING THAT THE SUBCOMMITTEE COULD DISCUSS PROBABLY DISCUSSED. 
          IT IS NOT, IT'S NOT IN THE BYLAWS OR THE JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT. 
          ALTHOUGH AREAS AS COUNCIL MEMBER ALTAR MENTIONED, THERE'S A REFERENCE IN THE BYLAWS THAT IT'S PREFERRED THAT THE VICE CHAIR, ULTIMATELY, WHENEVER IT OCCURS, THE VICE CHAIR WOULD ROTATE INTO THE CHAIR POSITION, BUT IT'S NOT MANDATORY. 
          AND IF YOU ALL RECALL FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE, THAT WAS ADDED AT THE SUGGESTION OF SOMEBODY THE LAST TIME WE CHANGED THINGS BECAUSE IT'S, THAT, UM, WAS HOW ANOTHER REGIONAL ORGANIZATION DID IT, BUT WE'VE NEVER FOLLOWED THAT. 
          YEAH, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S IN THERE, BUT IT'S, IT'S NOT BEEN FOLLOWED YET. 
          SO, UM, IT SAYS PREFERRED, BUT I THINK THAT WAS ADDED. 
          UM, BUT AGAIN, WHO, I MEAN, IT'S A MAJORITY VOTE. 
          THAT'S WHAT COUNT THE CONTROLS, EVERYTHING. 
          SO, YEAH, AND WE DID MANAGE HER. 
          WE DID HAVE A DISCUSSION WHEN WE WERE CONTEMPLATING, UM, I GUESS CHANGING IT FROM SECOND VICE PRESIDENT OR WHATEVER VICE CHAIR THAT WE HAD TO SECRETARY. 
          AND THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO JUST PREFER TO BE THERE RATHER NOT BE CHAIRS. 
          I'D RATHER BE IN A SPECIFIC POSITION, UM, FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME. 
          ASHBY GAVE AN ANECDOTE ABOUT, I GUESS, THE HOUSTON MPO THAT, BUT THAT WAS THE ISSUE WITH SOMEBODY THERE AND WOULD JUST WANT TO BE IN THAT POSITION TO BE SECRETARY OR WHATEVER IT WAS FOR THAT PERIOD OF TIME. 
          SO, I MEAN, I, I DON'T, I DON'T HAVE ANY HEARTBURN ONE WAY OR THE OTHER ON IT, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF WE NECESSARILY NEED TO FORMALIZE A LESSON YOU'RE HERE FOR THE NEXT PERIOD OF TIME AND THE OTHER PERSON WITH THAT. 
          I WOULDN'T SUPPORT IT. 
          I DON'T LIKE TERM LIMITS. 
          OKAY. 
          ANY OTHER COMMENTS BEFORE WE MOVE ON? ALL RIGHT. 
          UH, SO TIM, I BELIEVE YOU WANT TO NOT SHARE. 
          I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SPEAK UP FOR, I THINK IT'S A GREAT PRACTICE IN COMPLICATED ORGANIZATIONS THAT THE CHAIR IS IN A LEARNING ROLE THE YEAR BEFORE. 
          AND SO TO THE EXTENT THAT OUR BYLAWS SPEAK TO A PREFERENCE THAT THE VICE CHAIR IS SERVING, KNOWING THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BECOME THE CHAIR. 
          IT ALSO ALLOWS PROFESSIONALS TO SORT OF MAP OUT TIME COMMITMENTS. 
          AND SO I DON'T, I WASN'T THERE WHEN IT WAS ADDED, BUT, UM, I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THAT WAS THE UNDERSTANDING AND I'M CERTAINLY USED TO THAT WHAT IT'S WORTH. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, ANY OTHER, UM, DISCUSSION, SORRY, I'M TRYING TO TAKE INPUT FROM A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT AREAS HERE. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          SO TIM, I BELIEVE YOU 
          [10. Briefing on CAMPO Code of Conduct and Ethics Policies]
HAVE ITEM NUMBER 10. 
          UM, THIS IS JUST SORT OF A QUICK REVIEW OF OUR CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE POLICY BOARD MEMBERS, SINCE WE'VE GOT SOME NEW MEMBERS ON AND IT'S BAD TO HAVE A REFRESHER FOR US, FOR THOSE OF US WHO'VE BEEN HERE A WHILE, RIGHT. 
          UM, CAROLON, UH, THE, UH, POLICY BOARD ADOPTED A CODE OF CONDUCT IN 2018. 
          AND, UH, YOU DIDN'T HAVE A COPY OF THE CODE, UH, IN YOUR PACKET. 
          I, I'M NOT GOING TO REREAD IT OR GO BLOW BY BLOW. 
          OBVIOUSLY I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO, UM, READ IT CAREFULLY. 
          AND WHEN YOU HAVE REVIEWED IT AND UNDERSTAND IT, IF, UH, WE, WE ASK THAT YOU RETURN A SIGNED COPY, ACKNOWLEDGING YOUR REVIEW TO, UH, THE CAMPUS OFFICE, UH, VERY BRIEFLY, UM, OBVIOUSLY MUCH OF THE TYPICAL STUFF IN MOST CODES, UH, COMPLIANCE 
          [01:30:01]
WITH THE BYLAWS AND RELATED POLICIES, UH, RESPECT FOR BOARD DECISIONS AFTER OF COURSE, DEBATE AND VOTE, UH, INFORMED PARTICIPATION, ATTENDANCE AT MEETINGS, AND A DUTY TO STAY WELL-INFORMED, UM, UH, UNDER CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND CONFIDENTIALITY, UH, REPRESENTING THE BEST INTERESTS OF CAMPO AND DECLARING, UH, ANY CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, MAINTAINING CONFIDENTIALITY, WHERE THERE, WHERE IT'S APPROPRIATE, SUCH AS PERSONNEL MATTERS OR LEGAL MATTERS, UH, BUT ALSO, UH, OBSERVING TRANSPARENCY, PARTICULARLY WITH COMPLIANCE WITH THE PUBLIC INFORMATION ACT AND THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT. 
          AND I'LL COME BACK TO THAT IN A MINUTE, UH, IN BOARD RELATIONS, UH, PROMOTING RESPECTED COMMUNICATIONS AMONG THE BOARD AND STAFF, UM, OPEN COMMUNICATIONS AMONG BOARD MEMBERS, UH, BUT SUBJECT TO, UH, THE PIA PUBLIC INFORMATION ACT AND THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT. 
          AND IN THIS REGARD, I, TIM, CAN I INTERRUPT YOU FOR ONE SECOND, EMILY, IF YOU COULD CHANGE THE PANEL, THE VIEW BACK SO WE CAN SEE THE WHOLE GROUP, PLEASE. 
          THANK YOU. 
          GO AHEAD, TIM. 
          AND, AND SURE. 
          UH, WHAT I MENTIONED, UH, THE PIA AND OPEN MEETINGS ACT, I IMAGINE THAT MANY OF YOU ARE ALREADY TRAINED, UH, ON THE PUBLIC INFORMATION ACT AND THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT BY YOUR RESPECTIVE JURISDICTIONS AND YOUR COUNCIL, OR YOUR OPEN GOVERNMENT OFFICE IN YOUR RESPECTIVE AREAS. 
          IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR TRAINING, WHICH IS REQUIRED BY STATE LAW ON BOTH THE PIA AND THE OMA, IF YOU'VE RECEIVED THAT AND YOU'VE RECEIVED YOUR CERTIFICATE, THEN OBVIOUSLY YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THAT AGAIN FOR YOUR SERVICE ON CAMPO. 
          BUT IF YOU'VE NOT RECEIVED THAT TRAINING, UM, WE'RE GOING TO BE SENDING OUT A LINK TO ALL OF YOU THAT ALLOWS YOU TO GO IMMEDIATELY ON THE, UH, OFFICE, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S WEBSITE. 
          YOU CAN PULL DOWN A ONE HOUR EACH VIDEO AND LOOK AT IT AND OBTAIN YOUR CERTIFICATE OF TRAINING. 
          IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THAT AND LET ME KNOW, AND I'LL COME OUT AND GIVE YOU AN HOURS WORTH OF TRAINING. 
          FACE-TO-FACE, I'D LOVE TO DO THAT. 
          ACTUALLY, IT'D BE FUN. 
          UM, BUT THAT'S REALLY, REALLY IMPORTANT. 
          IT'S REQUIRED BY STATE LAW, UH, THAT YOU HAVE THAT TRAINING. 
          UM, AND OBVIOUSLY IT'S CRITICALLY IMPORTANT TO HOW YOU CONDUCT YOURSELVES AS BOARD MEMBERS FOR CAMPO. 
          YOU'RE DEALING IN BILLIONS AND BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. 
          AND WE WANT BOTH THE ACTUAL AND PERCEIVED, UH, HIGHEST LEVEL OF INTEGRITY. 
          I KNOW YOU WANT THAT YOURSELVES. 
          UM, THE LAST ITEM, UH, THE OF MAJOR ITEM UNDER THE CODE IS, UH, RELATED TO STAFF RELATIONS. 
          THIS WAS DISCUSSED AT GREAT LENGTH, UM, THE LAST AMENDMENT OF THE CODE. 
          UM, THE FIRST ITEM BEING THAT, THAT GENERALLY SPEAKING, THE BOARD RECOGNIZES THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR AS THE CHIEF OF STAFF AND OPERATIONS OF CAMPO AND, UH, BOARD MEMBER REQUESTS FOR STAFF. 
          THIS IS A CRITICAL ITEM THAT WAS, UH, DISCUSSED AT SOME LENGTH, UM, BOARD MEMBERS, STAFF WORK REQUEST THAT EXCEED EIGHT HOURS OF ACCUMULATED STAFF TIME REQUIRE A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE POLICY BOARD. 
          SO IF YOUR WORK REQUESTS TO A STAFF, UH, EXCLUDING THE CHAIR, OF COURSE, BUT IF YOUR WORK REQUESTS OF STAFF ARE GOING TO NOT EXCEED THAT, THEN, UH, NO PROBLEM, BUT GENERALLY THE POLICY IS IF IT'S GOING TO BE A MAJOR PROJECT, UH, THE WHOLE BOARD BOTH AUTHORIZES THAT WORK AND OBTAINS THE WORK PRODUCT. 
          THE OTHER ITEM THAT I WANT TO CALL YOUR OR YOUR ATTENTION TO IS THE ATTACHED, UH, ETHICS STANDARDS, AFFIDAVIT. 
          YOUR ETHICS ON THE MPO ARE SPECIFICALLY SUBJECT TO, UH, TRANSPORTATION CODE PROVISIONS, UH, FOUR SEVEN 2.034, THERE ARE SPECIFIC ETHICS REQUIREMENTS RELATED TO, UH, MPO MEMBERS. 
          AND THEY ARE INCLUDED ABCD IN THE AFFIDAVIT THAT I'VE ATTACHED TO, UH, TO THE POLICY, A BOARD PACKET, UH, IT RECITES BOTH, UH, ALL FIVE OF THE ETHICS REQUIREMENTS, WHICH BY THE WAY, ARE ALSO INCORPORATED IN THE BYLAWS AS REQUIRED BY THE STATUTE. 
          AND IT ALSO 
          [01:35:01]
COVERS, UM, UH, ITEMS WHERE ABSTENTION IS REQUIRED, WHERE ANY BOARD MEMBER MIGHT OWN A SUBSTANTIAL INTEREST IN A PIECE OF REAL ESTATE OR A BUSINESS THAT'S AFFECTED BY MPO ACTION. 
          SO IF YOU WOULD, UM, YOU'LL NOTICE THE AFFIDAVIT REFERS TO SENATE BILL FIVE 85, THAT SENATE BILL HAS SINCE BEEN, UH, UM, CODIFIED AT THE TRANSPORTATION CODE REFERENCE THAT I MENTIONED. 
          SO, UH, IF YOU WOULD TAKE SOME TIME TO LOOK AT THAT AFFIDAVIT, IT REQUIRES A SIGNATURE AND NOTARIZATION, AND IT NEEDS TO BE RETURNED TO THE, UM, THE CAMPO OFFICE. 
          UH, AND WITH THAT, UM, I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS. 
          OKAY. 
          DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR FOUR 10? UM, YES. 
          MA'AM GO AHEAD. 
          UM, WHICH MA'AM OH, I'M SORRY. 
          I ONLY SAW, UM, ONE HAND GO UP FIRST COMMISSIONER SHOW. 
          YOU'LL BE SECOND. 
          OR A MAYOR PRO TEM GOES FROM YES. 
          MAYOR PART TIME. 
          GO AHEAD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MADAM CHAIR. 
          I JUST WANTED TO ASK HOW FAR IN ADVANCE WE SHOULD PLAN THOSE IN-PERSON TRAININGS. 
          I AM, I WILL BE AT, JUST GIVE ME A WEEK OR 72 HOURS SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN. 
          I'D BE HAPPY TO DO THAT. 
          I WOULD, I WOULD WELCOME IT. 
          COMMISSIONER SAY YOU HAD A QUESTION OR COMMENT. 
          WELL, IT WOULD PROBABLY ACTUALLY BE, UM, ARE WE POSTED FOR ACTION ON THIS DISCUSSION WHILE I WOULD LIKE FOR US TO, UM, UH, INCLUDE THIS WHEN IT DOES COME BACK FOR ACTION? UM, SINCE WE HAVE A, UH, GENERAL ENGINEERING CONSULTANT AND WE HAVE A NUMBER OF CONSULTANTS WHO DO A REALLY A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF WORK AT CAMPO, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THESE SAME, UH, ETHICS CODES AND CODES OF CONDUCT EXTENDED TO THEM. 
          WELL, NO, AS A MATTER OF LAW THEY ARE, BUT WHY WOULD YOU SAY NO, JUDGE OAKLEY? WHY ON EARTH WOULD WE WANT THESE SAME STANDARDS TO OUR CONSULTANTS? I THOUGHT IT WAS FOR BOARD MEMBERS ANYWAY. 
          WELL, WHY WOULDN'T WE WANT IT FOR THE PEOPLE WHO WERE DOING THE BULK OF OUR MOST IMPORTANT WORK AND THAT WE'RE PAYING SUBSTANTIAL SUMS OF MONEY? I, I THINK TIM WAS, ARE YOU GOING TO DRAW THE LINE? WELL DONE? WELL, ALL OF THEM. 
          SO IF YOU DIDN'T WANT OF THE SAME KINDS CONDUCT, OH, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DO, AND THAT'S X. 
          SO I THINK 10, WHEREAS THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS UNDER THE PROCUREMENT ACT THAT, UM, ALL OF THESE FOLKS HAVE TO ABIDE BY. 
          TIM, DO YOU WANT TO ADDRESS THAT REAL QUICK? WELL, FIRST OF ALL, FIRST OF ALL, THIS BRIEFING TODAY IS JUST RELEVANT TO YOUR ETHICAL REQUIREMENTS, NOT THE PROCUREMENT ETHICS THAT, THAT APPLY TO EVERY, UH, BUDDY THAT CAMPO CONTRACTS WITH, OR TEXTILES OR CITY OF AUSTIN, WHOMEVER. 
          AND THERE'S A WHOLE, WE MIGHT WANT TO COME BACK AND, AND, UH, GIVE YOU SOME MORE INFORMATION IT'D BE HAPPY TO DO SO TO GIVE YOU A LAUNDRY LIST OF THE ETHICAL REQUIREMENTS THAT CURRENTLY EXIST, UH, ON FOR INSTANCE, CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, UH, FOR SOME OF OUR SONAR, UH, UH, UH, CONSULTANTS, WE'VE HAD ISSUES IN THE PAST ABOUT THAT SORT OF STUFF. 
          IN FACT, PRETTY, PRETTY, UH, CONTROVERSIAL ISSUES, BUT THERE'S A WHOLE, THERE'S A WHOLE REGIME OF, UH, UH, RULES AND REGULATIONS THAT APPLY TO THOSE ISSUES. 
          BUT I WASN'T BRUSHING THOSE TODAY. 
          SO I, I THINK IF, IF, UM, COMMISSIONER SHEA, UM, AND, AND I CERTAINLY DON'T HAVE THEM ALL MEMORIZED. 
          I KNOW THAT THROUGH PROCUREMENT LAWS AND EVERY, UH, AND, AND SEVERAL OTHERS, THERE'S A SUBSTANTIAL, UM, UH, ETHICS REQUIREMENTS AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT PROBABLY ARE IN SOME CASES, A HIGHER BAR THAN WHAT THIS IS. 
          BUT, UM, IF, IF, UM, BY, YOU KNOW, ASHBY, IF YOU COULD WORK WITH TIM AND JUST PULL TOGETHER A, UH, A MEMO, JUST REFERENCING ALL THOSE THINGS YOU DON'T HAVE TO, BUT I KNOW THAT A LOT OF THEM ARE CITED IN DIFFERENT PLACES, UM, IN TERMS OF WHAT 
          [01:40:01]
OUR, UM, CONSULTANTS AND THAT COMMUNITY HAS TO ABIDE BY. 
          THAT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL. 
          THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. 
          GREAT. 
          THANKS, COUNCIL MEMBER KITCHEN. 
          YEAH. 
          THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT. 
          I THINK THAT'LL BE HELPFUL. 
          COULD YOU PLEASE, UM, ADD TO IT, UM, UH, I'M PARTICULARLY INTERESTED IN DATA, YOU KNOW, UM, AND, UH, CONFIDENTIALITY OF, OF DATA. 
          SO IF YOU COULD, UH, YOU KNOW, FROM OUR, UM, VENDOR'S PERSPECTIVE, I IMAGINE THERE'S PROBABLY STANDARD THINGS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN OUR CONTRACTS WITH OUR VENDORS. 
          SO IF YOU COULD JUST SPEAK TO THAT, UM, IN, IN YOUR MEMO ABOUT WHAT OUR PRACTICE IS WITH REGARD TO DATA CONFIDENTIALITY, THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL. 
          CERTAINLY DO THAT SHARED KITCHEN. 
          IT DEPENDS, BUT WHEN SOME CASES, UM, THE DATA IS PROPRIETARY AND IN THOSE CASES, WE, YOU KNOW, WE CAN'T RELEASE IT, BUT GENERALLY OUR CONTRACTS SAY THAT, UM, DATA IS OURS, UH, OF THE, ONE OF THE, UH, THING IS WHEN THE STUDY IS OVER. 
          YEAH. 
          THAT'S WHAT I WOULD EXPECT. 
          AND SO I WOULD JUST BE THINKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, DATA IS OURS, WHICH MEANS OUR, OUR VENDORS CAN CANNOT, UM, SELL IT OR USE IT. 
          UM, BUT I'M ALSO CURIOUS ABOUT THINGS LIKE, DO WE REQUIRE THEM TO DESTROY DATA THEY'VE HAD ONCE THEY'RE NO LONGER A VENDOR OR WHAT EXACTLY DO WE DO? I'M JUST CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT ARE PRACTICES. 
          OKAY. 
          ANY OTHER ON SPECIFICALLY ON THIS TOPIC, THE CAMPO POLICY, BOARD, UM, CODE OF CONDUCT OR ETHICS. 
          OKAY. 
          SEEING THAT ASHBY 
          [11. Executive Director’s Report on Transportation Planning Activities]
WE'LL MOVE ON TO YOUR REPORT. 
          THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. 
          AND I'LL BE VERY BRIEF. 
          UM, UH, THIS MONTH I DID WRITE UP A LITTLE SORT OF, UM, MEMO THAT WE SENT OUT WITH THE PACKAGE. 
          AND I'LL JUST DRAW YOUR ATTENTION TO THE ITEM THAT'S NEAR THE TOP OF THIS CONCERNS LOCALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVES FOR TWO OF THE CAPITAL METRO TRANSIT LINES. 
          UM, UH, CAPITAL METRO HAS BEEN WORKING, UM, ON THE, UM, BOTH THE BUS, RAPID TRANSIT AND THE LIGHT RAIL LINES FOR PROJECT CONNECT FOR A WHILE NOW, UH, THEY HAVE CONVENED, UM, TWO WORK GROUPS, UH, TO LOOK AT THE ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS. 
          UH, CAMPO IS PART OF THOSE, UH, TWO DIFFERENT WORK GROUPS, UM, UH, AT THE REQUEST OF FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION. 
          UM, THEY HAVE MET AT THE GROUPS HAVE MET AT LEAST ONCE SO FAR. 
          WE HAVE ATTENDED THOSE MEETINGS AND, UM, CAPITOL METRO SHOWED US THE SCHEDULE, THE DRAFT SCHEDULE FOR GETTING THROUGH, UH, THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESS AND, UM, ABOUT A YEAR, A LITTLE BIT OVER A YEAR, UM, FROM START TO FINISH. 
          AND IN ORDER FOR THEM TO MEET THEIR TARGET, THEY WILL NEED TO HAVE THEIR LOCALLY PREFERRED ALTERNATIVES, WHICH BASICALLY TELLS THE FEDERAL TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION, UM, WHAT ROUTE AND THEN WHAT MODE THEY WILL BE PICKING OR DIFFERENT QUARTERS. 
          UM, BUT THEY'LL, OF COURSE THAT HAS TO BE INCLUDED IN THE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM PRIOR TO, UM, CAPITAL METRO RECEIVING, UH, A RECORD OF DECISION FROM, UM, FEDERAL TRANSIT. 
          SO IN ORDER TO MEET THE TIMELINE, THE CAPITOL METRO HAS LAID OUT THAT I DON'T WE'LL COME TO THIS BODY IN, UM, MAY AS A INFORMATION ITEM. 
          AND THEN IT WILL BE, UM, INCLUDED IN THE JUNE BOARD AGENDA, UH, AS AN ACTION ITEM. 
          AND THEN THIS WOULD COINCIDE WITH OUR REGULAR, UM, UH, LONG RANGE PLAN AND TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AMENDMENT CYCLE, UM, THAT ALSO ALLOWS US TO GO OUT AND, UH, DO THE PUBLIC OUTREACH THAT WE NORMALLY DO FOR THAT. 
          AND WE WILL BE INCLUDING CAPITAL METRO IN THAT HOUR. 
          SO, UM, JUST WANTED TO POINT THAT OUT, UM, AS THINGS THAT ARE ON THE HORIZON FOR YOU THAT ARE SORT OF BIG THINGS, UM, IN THE COMING MONTH. 
          THANKS, ASHBY, UM, ITEM NUMBER

          UM, IF THAT SOME OF THOSE THINGS COULD BE CARRIED OVER TILL MAY, BUT, UM, WE'LL LET YOU KNOW SOONER RATHER THAN LATER.
