Introduction The Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2015-2018 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for the East Central Intergovernmental Association Regional Planning Affiliation (RPA) is a four year listing of federal aid eligible transportation projects selected by the various governmental agencies and by Regional Planning Affiliation (RPA) Policy Board for implementation. All transportation projects in the RPA Region using federal funds are to be included in the TIP. The TIP is prepared annually for the RPA Policy Board with input from the Technical Advisory Committee, Iowa Department of Transportation, and the general public. Prioritization of projects within a project year is determined by the implementing agencies. Prioritization of Long Range Transportation Plan projects on a year-to-year basis will be done by the RPA Policy Board in cooperation with the implementing agency.

RPA Membership and Governance The East Central Intergovernmental Association Regional Planning Affiliation (RPA) membership is made up of 56 local cities and counties in a four county area in eastern Iowa. All member jurisdictions have signed a 28E agreement to conduct transportation planning and the programming of federal transportation funds as determined by the Iowa Department of Transportation. The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (DMATS) area in greater Dubuque is excluded from the RPA because it is a separate transportation planning area. The DMATS region includes the Cities of Dubuque, Asbury, Sageville, Peosta, Centralia and Durango, as well as portions of Dubuque County.

The ECIA RPA is staffed by the East Central Intergovernmental Association, which has no formal membership on either the RPA Policy Board or the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). At their request, the Iowa Department of Transportation, Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) are only advisory members of the RPA Policy Board and Tech advisory committee.

The 56 member local jurisdictions include four counties and four urban areas (population greater than 5,000). The four urban areas are the Cities of Clinton, DeWitt, Manchester, and Maquoketa. The total members of the ECIA RPA include: CLINTON DELAWARE DUBUQUE JACKSON Clinton County Andover Calamus Camanche Charlotte Clinton Delmar DeWitt Goose Lake Grand Mound Lost Nation Low Moor Toronto Welton Wheatland

RPA Organization and Management The East Central Intergovernmental Association Regional Planning Affiliation was established on February 2, 1994 through the adoption of Articles of Agreement by the participating organizations in the region. It is one of the 18 RPA's in the state that were formed as part of the Iowa Department of Transportation's implementation of Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA), particularly in regard to meeting the statewide planning and programming aspects of the legislation.

This cooperative, comprehensive, and continuing transportation planning process was established by an agreement between the state and local governments in compliance with the provisions of the ISTEA. The planning process is implemented through a committee structure.

Committees forward their recommendations to the Policy Board for consideration and final action. At this time, the only standing committee is the Technical Advisory Committee, which was formed by the Policy Board at its first meeting on February 2, 1994. The Policy Board and Technical Advisory Committee's responsibilities are summarized below: RPA Policy Board The ECIA RPA is governed by a Board of twelve elected officials from the member jurisdictions. The Policy Board is responsible for establishing overall policy, making decisions related to transportation planning and project funding priorities, and monitoring the direction of studies of transportation conditions in the region. There is a Board member from each of the four counties, and a Board member from each of the four large urban areas. The remaining four Board members are from a non-urban city in each of the four counties which are elected by caucus every two years.

RPA Overall Goal The Goal of the ECIA Regional Planning Affiliation is to further develop the transportation system with a vision toward improving safety, promoting economic development and improving the quality of life within the RPA Region with consideration being given to the various levels of political sub-divisions and to alternative forms of transportation such as transit, bicycles, and pedestrians.

Major Projects and Concerns within the RPA Region 1. Implementation of the U.S. 30/67 Corridor Improvements in the City of Clinton.

2. To improve U.S. 30 to 4 lanes from DeWitt west to Mount Vernon. This entire route is now shown in the state’s long range plan as a 4-lane roadway.

3. Mississippi River Trail.

Annual Transportation Improvement Program RPA staff, is required to develop a transportation improvement program for the Regional Planning Affiliation 8 (RPA 8) and is further required to provide citizens, affected public agencies, representatives of transportation agency employees, other affected employee representatives, private RPA 8 Transportation Improvement Program FFY 2015-2018

providers of transportation, and other interested parties with a reasonable opportunity to comment on the proposed program during the process.

The TIP is to have a listing of projects that are scheduled to be carried out within a 4-year period of when they were initially adopted into the RPA 8 TIP. The TIP will include a financial explanation of the improvement projects that detail how each will be implemented as well as an indication of what public and private resources can be expected to be made available to complete the transportation improvement.

Before the RPA 8 Policy Committee can approve any transportation improvement, it will provide citizens, affected public agencies, representatives of transportation agency employees, private providers of transportation, and other interested parties with reasonable notice of and an opportunity to comment on the proposed improvement.

The TIP Process will include the following steps: • •

• •

•

RPA 8 staff will start developing the TIP in month of February following rules and regulations adopted by the Iowa DOT. After the draft TIP is finished, it will be released for a 30-day public review process in May. DMATS staff will inform the public of the draft TIP’s availability by sending notice to the organizations on the RPA 8 public participation process list and by publishing legal notices in local newspapers and ECIA website. Theses notices will be printed 4 -20 days before the scheduled meeting.

The public hearing will be held with the RPA 8 Policy Board meeting in May. The meeting will be opened for public input during the process.

After the final TIP is finished, it will be released for a 30-day public review process in June.

RPA staff will inform the public of the final TIP’s availability by sending notice to the organizations on the RPA 8 public participation process list and by publishing legal notices in local newspapers and ECIA website. Theses notices will be published 4 -20 days before the scheduled meeting.

The public hearing will be held with the RPA 8 Policy Board meeting in June. The meeting will be opened for public input during the process.

The 2012 Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) bill sets out the following guidelines for planning: • • • • •

•

Support the economic vitality of the metropolitan area, especially by enabling global competitiveness, productivity, and efficiency; Increase the safety of the transportation system for motorized and non‐motorized users; Increase the security of the transportation system for motorized and non‐motorized users; Increase the accessibility and mobility of people and for freight; Protect and enhance the environment, promote energy conservation, improve quality of life, and promote consistency between transportation improvements and State and local planned growth and economic development patterns; Enhance the integration and connectivity of the transportation system, across and between modes, for people and freight;

RPA 8 Transportation Improvement Program FFY 2015-2018

Page 7

• •

Promote efficient system management and operation; and Emphasize the preservation of the existing transportation system.

In addition, the current administration is promoting livability principles that are to be considered in the metropolitan planning process activities. These principles are: • • • • • •

Provide more transportation choices Promote equitable, affordable housing Enhance economic competitiveness Support existing communities Coordinate policies and leverage investments, and Value communities and neighborhoods.

Failure to consider any one of the areas is not reviewable in court.

Operations & Maintenance (O&M) The result of major oversight nationally has lead to the requirement to include operations and maintenance/management costs of all federal-aid system routes and transit facilities in the STIPs, TIPs, and LRTPs. The Iowa FHWA asked MPOs and RPAs in Iowa to report O&M costs as system-wide totals for operations and maintenance (highways) and operations and maintenance (transit facilities).* This would encompass all the federal aid system routes, transit facilities, and the local systems for RPA 8 jurisdictions. The local O&M revenue data is provided by County Engineers Association. The O&M information is collected by County Engineers Association through the road use tax finance reports that cities and counties submit to them.

Fund Availability Iowa STP Program Adopted STP Fund Distribution System At the October 19, 1999 meeting, the RPA Policy Board adopted a distribution system for uncommitted STP funds. In this system, the funds are distributed by a sub-allocation process. Each jurisdiction’s share of the funds will be determined by the Census population. The cities of Clinton, Manchester, Maquoketa and Dewitt will receive a share based on the population within the incorporated limits of the city. The four counties will each receive a share based on the population of the unincorporated area plus the population of all cities in the county under 5,000 population. Jurisdictions eligible for STP funds that do not receive a sub-allocation will have the opportunity to request funding from the county as follows: 1. Cities below 5,000 population, transit agencies can compete each year through an application process for 10% of the STP funds set aside by RPA Policy board (Appendix D).

2. Transit agencies providing service within cities greater than 5,000 in population can request funds from the cities over 5,000 population.

Based on this distribution system, the eight eligible jurisdictions would receive the following shares of uncommitted STP funds: 2010 Census Anticipated Anticipated Anticipated Anticipated Population Suballoc FFY2015 FFY2016 FFY2017 FFY2018 Share Multiplier Target(2) Target(2) Target(2) Target(2) using 2010 using 2010 using 2010 using 2010 2010 Census census census census census Per Capita Sub Allocations Before taking Funds from top

Transportation Alternative Program (TAP) and Transportation Alternative (TA) flex The Transportation Alternatives Program was authorized by the most recent federal transportation funding act, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), which was signed into law on July 6, 2012. TAP redefines the former Transportation Enhancements activities and consolidates these eligibilities with the former Safe Routes to School program. Some projects that were previously funded through the discretionary National Scenic Byways Program are now eligible for TAP as are projects eligible under the Recreational Trails Program. The Transportation Enhancements program was originally authorized in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA) and continued through two successive laws, Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) and Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU).

On Jan. 15, 2013, the Iowa Transportation Commission approved the implementation of MAP-21 as it relates to TAP. After much consideration and through the gathering of stakeholder and general public input, the decision was made to transition to a more locally focused manner of selecting projects for funding. Under SAFETEA-LU, the Iowa DOT retained half of the annual Transportation Enhancements apportionment and selected Statewide Transportation Enhancement projects through a competitive process. The other half of the Transportation Enhancements apportionment was distributed to Iowa’s MPOs and RPAs to select projects locally. Under MAP-21, the majority of Transportation Alternatives Program funding will be distributed to the MPOs and RPAs while the Iowa DOT retains just $1 million for the implementation of the Statewide Transportation Alternatives Program.

TA Flex, the Iowa Transportation commission approved some STP funds to bring the TAP funding levels to SAFTEA-LU TE funding levels. The IA DOT commission gave an option to MPOs and RPA s on usage of TA flex funds. RPA 8 Policy Board decided to use the funds on infrastructure maintenance.

The RPA 8 staff is in process of creating an application process for TAP funds. ECIA staff will open the application process once the RPA policy Boards approves and adopted the procedure for the funding of the RPA’s TAP funds. TAP funds will follow the same process as they followed with TE funds for solicitation of applications. In this system, funds will be awarded by a competitive process. The ECIA staff distributes a letter of solicitation to all RPA member governments and County Conservation Boards. Applications are then mailed to the entities. ECIA staff performs the initial scoring based on criteria, which is then reviewed by the RPA Technical Advisory Committee. The Technical Advisory Committee then makes their recommendations to the RPA Policy Board. The Policy Board then holds a public hearing in which comments from the public are heard concerning the applications. After the public hearing, the Policy Board then awards funds to the projects they deem to be most worthy. ECIA programs these funds for the four-year period of the TIP based upon funding targets from the Iowa DOT and projected funding levels.

The request for funding by applicants will be limited by amount. The RPA 8 Policy Board will be setting up these limits.

Federal funding Projects identified in local TIPs utilize a number of different sources of federal funding. While some FHWA funds are distributed by statutory formulas, other funds are “discretionary� (congressionally earmarked). The primary sources of FHWA funding to Iowa, which are in part used to fund local efforts, include:

RPA 8 Transportation Improvement Program FFY 2015-2018

Page 18

Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program (CMAQ) – CMAQ provides flexible funding for transportation projects and programs tasked with helping to meet the requirements of the Clean AirAct. These projects can include those that reduce congestion and improve air quality.

Demonstration funding (DEMO) - Demonstration funding is a combination of different programs and sources. The FHWA administers discretionary programs through various offices representing special funding categories. An appropriation bill providing money to a discretionary program, through special congressionally directed appropriations, or through legislative acts such as the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).

Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) - This is a core federal-aid program that funds projects with the goal of achieving a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on public roads. Portions of these funds are set aside for use on high-risk rural roads and railway-highway crossings.

Metropolitan Planning Program (PL) - FHWA provides funding for this program to the State of Iowa based on urbanized area population. The funds are dedicated to support transportation planning efforts in urbanized areas of more than 50,000 persons.

National Highway Performance Program (NHPP) - NHPP funds are available to be used on projects that improve the condition and performance of the National Highway System (NHS) including some state and U.S. highways and interstates.

Surface Transportation Program (STP) - This program is designed to address specific issues identified by Congress and provides flexible funding for project to preserve or improve the condition/performance of number of transportation facilities including any federal-aid highway or public road bridge. STP funding may be spent on: • Roadway projects on federal-aid routes.

• Bridge projects on any public road.

• Transit capital improvements.

• TAP eligible activities.

• Planning activities.

STP Bridge Program (STP-B) – While the Highway Bridge Program was eliminated in MAP-21 a portion of Iowa’s STP will continue to be targeted directly to counties and dedicated specifically to county bridge projects. A portion of these funds are required to be obligated on off-system bridges. The remaining funds can be used on either on or off system bridges.

Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) - This program combines funding from a number of programs in the previous authorization bill, SAFETEA-LU. The TAP program provides funding to expand travel choices and improve the transportation experience. TAP projects improve the cultural, historic, aesthetic and environmental aspects of our transportation infrastructure. Alternatives projects can include creation of bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and the restoration of historic transportation facilities, among others. It is important to note that some types of projects eligible under the SAFETEALU program Transportation Enhancements are no longer eligible, or have modified eligibility, under the TAP. All projects completed using TAP funds should be verified to ensure compatibility with TAP eligibility.

Federal Lands and Tribal Transportation Programs (FLHP) – The Federal Lands Transportation Program and Federal Lands Access Program provide funding for projects that improve access within, and to, federal lands. Federal Lands Access Program funding will be distributed through a grant process where a group of FHWA, Iowa DOT, and local government representatives will solicit, rank, and select projects to receive funding. The Tribal Transportation Program continues the Indian Reservation Road program and will distribute funds based on formula comprised of tribal population, road mileage, and average funding under SAFETEA-LU. County Bridge Program County bridges are eligible for the BR program based on their service level. For bridge replacement, a bridge must have a Federal Bridge Sufficiency rating (FBS) less than 50 , an average daily traffic (ADT) of 25 or more vehicles, and be rated as structurally deficient (SD) or functionally obsolete (FO). For bridge rehabilitation, a bridge must have an FBS of only 80 or less, an ADT of 25 or more vehicles, and be rated as SD or FO. Counties BR funds are distributed to the counties based on one-third of the Road Use Tax (RUT) distribution and two-thirds on the amount of qualifying square feet of bridges.

As funds permit, the Iowa DOT allows counties to borrow up to six years of their average annual allocation.

Clinton, Delaware, Dubuque and Jackson Counties in RPA 8 uses many factors when determining which bridges to replace and which bridge replacements to use federal bridge funds. Taken into account is our bridge inspection/condition/life data, traffic counts, knowledge of our systems traffic flow, road repair schedules, school bus routes, etc. We choose bridge projects that have the greatest need (which somewhat correlates with their estimated remaining life). We program projects based on the HBP funds available to us from the state (DOT) provided targets. Currently Dubuque County has a very large project in the 5-year plan that will require a higher dollar amount than our bridge funds are allowed to accumulate.

City Bridge Program The City Bridge program does not automatically distribute bridge funds to cities. Rather the funds are distributed based on a combination of several factors including Sufficiency Rating, Average Daily Traffic (ADT), Detour considerations, and Bridge Posting. All applications for city bridge fund projects are ranked by a scoring system statewide. Cities should apply for this funding to get their bridge projects ranked and funded.

RPA 8 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PROGRAM

Accommodation: Meetings, public hearings, and ECIA formal events are held in facilities that are accessible by persons with disabilities. Public notices of ECIA meetings and events include a notice of location for public. Individuals with disabilities will be provided with accommodations to attend the meetings on request with a minimum of one weeks notice. Individuals requiring special material or presentation formats will be asked to contact the staff at least one week before the meeting.

Revising/Amending an Approved TIP Revising the TIP Revisions are defined as changes to a TIP that occur between scheduled periodic updates. There are two types of changes that occur under the umbrella of revision. The first is a major revision or “Amendment”. The second is a minor revision or Administrative Modification”.

Amendment An amendment is a revision to a TIP that involves a major change to a project included in the TIP. This includes an addition or deletion of a project or a major change in project cost, project/project phase initiation dates, or a major change in design concept or scope (e.g. changing project termini or the number of through lanes). Changes to projects that are included only for illustrative purposes do not require an amendment. An amendment is a revision that requires public review and comment, redemonstration of fiscal constraint, or a conformity determination. Changes that affect fiscal constraint must take place by amendment of the TIP. The TIP Amendment Process will include the following steps: • •

• • •

RPA 8 staff will collect the amendment information from the members requesting.

RPA 8 staff will inform the public of the amended TIP’s availability by sending notice to the organizations on the RPA 8 public participation process list and by publishing legal notices in local newspapers and ECIA website. Theses notices will be posted and published 4-20 days before the scheduled meeting.

The public hearing meeting will be held with the RPA 8 Policy Board meeting and the meeting will be opened for public input during the process.

The DOT and FHWA staff will be provided with updated TIP with amendments once approved

by RPA 8 Policy and tech boards.

The public hearing meeting will be held with the RPA 8 Policy Board meeting and the meeting will be opened for public input during the process.

Administrative Modification A minor revision to a TIP is an administrative modification. It includes minor changes/project phase costs, minor changes to funding sources of previously-included projects, and minor changes to

RPA 8 Transportation Improvement Program FFY 2015-2018

Page 29

project/project phase initiation dates. An administrative modification is a revision that does not require public review and comment or redemonstration of fiscal constraint, Amendment vs. Administrative Modification There are four main components that can be used to determine whether a project change constitutes an amendment or an administrative modification. They include the following: •

Project costs-Determination will be made based on the percentage change or dollar amount of change in federal aid. Projects in which the federal aid has been changed by more than 30% or total federal aid increases by $2.0 million or more will require an amendment. Anything less can be processed with an administrative modification.

•

Schedule changes-Changes in schedules to projects which are included in the first four years of the TIP/STIP will be considered administrative modifications. Projects which are added or deleted from the TIP/STIP will be processed as amendments.

•

Funding sources-Additional federal funding sources to a project will require an amendment.

Changes to funding from one source to another will require an administrative modification.

•

Scope changes-Changing project termini or changing the amount of through traffic lanes will be processed as an amendment. Other examples of changes that require amendment are changing the type of work from an overlay to reconstruction. Another example is changing a project to include widening of the roadway.

Appendix D General RPA Funding Guide to Transportation Surface Transportation Projects The Regional Planning Affiliation (RPA) tech Committee oversees the program that provides funds to sponsors of transportation projects that expand travel choices and enhance the transportation experience.

This committee reviews, scores, and recommends project applications requesting Surface Transportation Project (STP) funds. Their recommendations are given to the RPA Policy Committee for approval. The committee consists of a rotating balance of local government and public works officials in the region.

The RPA Tech committee follows the rules and regulations pertaining to the program as set forth in the Federal Highway Administration. However, some additional restrictions have been placed to make the program more efficient and maximize the federal dollars used for construction activities.

Project Obligation: The project should be obligated within two Federal Fiscal years which includes the Federal Fiscal year that the funding got programmed in RPA 8 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

The Federal Fiscal year starts on October 1st of the current calendar year and goes until September 30th of the next calendar year. If funds have not been obligated at the end of the two year time period the funds will be returned to RPA 8.

FHWA Authorization of Construction Costs As part of the letting process, the Iowa DOT obtains FHWA Authorization for the costs of the proposed construction contract. FHWA Authorization will be requested based on the plans, specifications, and estimate (PS&E) submitted by the Local Public Agency (LPA). If the bids come in significantly higher or lower than the estimate, the FHWA Authorization may be adjusted accordingly, provided that sufficient Federal funds are available for the project. The Iowa DOT requires that the LPA budget sufficient funds and be prepared to award a contract for bids that are up to 110% of the LPA’s estimate.

SAFETY 200 Total Points Available Safety is designed to measure how accidents on the proposed facility compare with state rates and what proportion of the project cost will go towards safety improvements. The Transportation Advisory Committee will rank projects based on factual numbers supplied by applicants and their corresponding point ranges.

Data used in this section includes accident rates and cost of safety improvements of the proposed project. Applicants will acquire accident data from the previous five years and complete the accident rate calculation located in the application. The end result should be a ratio in units of accidents per hundred million vehicle miles (HMVM) of the calculated rate for the proposed project to the state rate for cities or counties. Points will be awarded based on the accident rate as shown in the table below: Accident Rate Scoring Criteria Accident Ratio Points <0.49 0.50-0.99 1.00-1.99 2.00-2.99 3.00-3.99 4.00-<

0 20 40 60 80 100

The proportion of the total project cost to cost of safety improvements uses data from the applicant that should specifically describe what parts of the project are for safety improvements. All safety improvements must be located on the approved safety improvement list included at the end of this document and in the STP Application. The cost for safety improvements should then be divided by the total cost for the safety improvement cost/total cost ratio. Points are awarded based on the proportion of funding put towards making safety improvements as shown below.

INTEGRATION

AND

CONNECTIVITY

75 Points Total Points Available Integration and Connectivity is designed to measure what impact the proposed project will have on connecting and integrating the transportation system. The Transportation Advisory Committee will rank projects based on factual numbers and on the committee memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feelings on how the proposed project will impact the transportation system in this category.

Below illustrates how the 75 points are distributed for the integration and connectivity category.

75 Points - Project improves connectivity to a road classified as arterial or higher?

75 Points - Project improves connectivity for freight transportation including air, water, rail, and truck?

75 Points - Project integrates multiple modes of transportation including transit, trail, and auto?

LOCAL

AND

REGIONAL FACTORS

125 Total Points Available Local and regional factors will evaluate what planning documents the proposed project are consistent with, the amount of local match involved, how the proposed project will impact the transportation system, and if there is more than one sponsor involved.

The adopted planning document could include a long range transportation plan, comprehensive plan, capital improvements plan, or any other local, regional, or state planning document. 25 points will be awarded based on the number of planning documents in which a project conforms with and the significance of the planning document.

Projects will be awarded points based on the amount of local match ratio contributed to the project.

Projects that have match ratios in between the ratios listed as point ranges will be grouped in the point range above the actual ratio. For instance, if a proposed project has a federal/local match of 72/28, that project will be grouped in the 80/20 range. A proposed project that has a federal/local match ratio of 68/32 will be grouped in the 70/30 range.
