6 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 3a Transportation & Environment Department Long-Range Planning ISSUE: VOTE: Approve an amendment to Transportation Outlook 2040 to add KC Streetcar extension projects, add the new Human Services Coordinated Plan and update the Public Transportation chapter BACKGROUND: In June 2015, the MARC Board of Directors approved an update to Transportation Outlook 2040, the Kansas City region's long-range Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP). This plan is a blueprint that describes how the region will manage, operate and invest in its multimodal transportation system over the next 25 years. Transportation Outlook 2040 describes the current and evolving surface transportation needs of the metropolitan area and identifies $33.1 billion in transportation investments ranging from road and transit improvements to projects that enhance bike, pedestrian and freight movement. Amendments are made to Transportation Outlook 2040 as new projects, funding or programs arise and MARC s Public Participation Plan requires that proposed amendments to the MTP be released for public review and comment. MARC is proposing a sixth amendment to Transportation Outlook 2040 to address recent changes to various public transportation plans and projects in the region. These include: a.

10 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors ISSUE: REPORT: Update on the draft Regional Pedestrian Policy Plan April 2018 Item No. 3c Transportation and Environment Active Transportation BACKGROUND: MARC has been coordinating work with the Bicycle Pedestrian and Advisory Committee (BPAC), active transportation stakeholders and the public to develop the first Regional Pedestrian Policy Plan. Pedestrian issues are crosscutting multiple regional plans, policies and programs currently address walking as a mode of transportation. The Regional Pedestrian Policy Plan offers a comprehensive overview and synthesis of best practice policies for a walkfriendly region. Work to date has included an assessment of regional and local work in this area, including a Local Government Pedestrian Inventory to help guide the planning process and creation of recommendations. The plan includes: 1. A review of MARC s existing plans, policies and programs with a pedestrian lens, accompanied by recommendations to strengthen regional policy, technical work and best practices. 2. Recommendations for policy, technical work and best practices at the local level based on findings of the Local Government Pedestrian Inventory. A final draft plan has been posted to the MARC website for review. MARC staff has vetted the draft plan with various committees and will provide an update on the plan recommendations at the meeting. The item will be brought back to the Board for adoption at a future meeting. COMMITTEE ACTION: In April 2018, the TTPC will consider a recommendation to adopt the plan as a framework to guide discussion about pedestrian issues during the development of the Regional Transportation Plan 2050 and future investment policy. STAFF CONTACT: Aaron Bartlett Martin Rivarola

11 Regional Pedestrian Policy Plan Executive Summary MARC recognizes the essential role walkability plays in a regional multimodal transportation system. Walkability affects our access to transit, how we get to work and school, our health through exercise for both transportation and recreation, the quality of the air we breathe, our economic vitality, and our safety as vulnerable transportation users. Yet there is a tendency to under value pedestrian systems and even avoid pedestrian issues due to the challenges in balancing transportation modes. To address pedestrian challenges, the Regional Pedestrian Policy Plan (RPPP):»» Synthesizes a regional vision to improve walkability across jurisdictional boundaries through policies, plans and programs.»» Coordinates planning efforts at the regional level and provides best practices to address walkability at the local level.»» Provides recommendations strategies to enhance regional and local efforts. Plan Vision The RPPP envisions a Kansas City region where:»» Pedestrians can get where they need to go in a pleasant and safe environment.»» Pedestrian facilities: Are well maintained. Offer excellent connectivity to employment and educational opportunities. Are integral to the region s economic vitality and public health. Plan Goals Increase the safety of pedestrians Increase and improve the quality of pedestrian facilities (sidewalks, crosswalks, ramps, etc.) Target areas of high need and density of pedestrians Educate the public on the benefit of walking as a mode of transportation

12 Plan Strategies The RPPP is intended to elevate the awareness of pedestrian challenges related to the plan goals. Additionally, strategies target investments and efforts to maximize pedestrian benefits. Strategies are organized into three categories: policy, technical and best practices at both regional and local levels. Policy level strategies are intended to aid decision makers at the regional level during the planning and programming process, and at the local level in the development of plans and zoning regulations. Technical strategies identify actions where additional analytical work, such as collection of sidewalk data and GIS mapping, is needed to understand current conditions and identify needs. Best practices strategies are a collection of actions that have proven to be effective in a variety of communities. Many strategies are crosscutting, addressing more than one goal. The regional strategies are aimed at MARC and its regional partners, while the local strategies are aimed at local governments. Regional strategies are intended to guide future discussions during the update of programming review criteria but not supplant them. The local strategies are intended to serve as a menu of options for local governments, recognizing that the capacity of staff and the need for pedestrian initiatives and actions varies across the Kansas City metro area. Adoption of these strategies will help focus investments on locations where they will have the greatest benefit. Regional plans, policies and programs should facilitate planning and coordination among local jurisdictions and transit providers. They should help guide prioritization of investments where they will have the greatest opportunity to maximize limited regional resources. At the same time, local best practices should also prioritize investments of limited resources to maximize opportunity. The plan provides strategies specific to policy, technical best practices and which goals they address at both the regional and local levels. See the full plan at marc.org/pedplan.

13 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 3d Transportation & Environment Metropolitan Transportation Planning ISSUE: REPORT: Update on Missouri s draft 2018 Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan BACKGROUND: The Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission has released a draft update of the Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and is accepting comments from stakeholders and the public through May 3, The draft plan is available online at The 2018 Missouri LRTP updates goals and objectives for the state transportation system, considers impacts of emerging and continuing trends for demographics, infrastructure and technology, and assesses system needs and revenues for the next 25 years. Unlike MARC s metropolitan transportation plan, the state LRTP is not required to include a financially constrained list of transportation projects. The draft update includes four goals from previous plans and proposes adding one new goal: Take care of the transportation system and services we enjoy today Keep all travelers safe, no matter the mode of transportation Give Missourians better transportation choices Invest in projects that spur economic growth and create jobs Improve reliability and reduce congestion on Missouri s transportation system (New) While the update was developed with input from staff from metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) in Missouri, including MARC, there is no direct acknowledgement of policy goals or strategies from the metropolitan transportation plans of the eight MPOs that serve Missouri. The statewide plan could provide an opportunity to highlight similarities and differences in priorities in the urban areas across the state in developing statewide goals for the transportation system. For example, MARC s Transportation Outlook 2040 includes additional goals related to placemaking, equity, public health, the environment and climate change and energy use. The draft plan includes new information about the potential impacts of emerging technologies, including autonomous, connected and alternative fuel vehicles, transportation network companies and others, which may provide helpful background for MARC s work to develop our next regional transportation plan for COMMITTEE ACTION: At its April 17, 2018, meeting, the Total Transportation Policy Committee authorized MARC to submit comments to MoDOT based on the attached list. STAFF CONTACT: Ron Achelpohl

14 Potential Comment Topics on Missouri 2018 Statewide Long-Range Plan Update Common Goals: The key policy goals identified in the 2018 update are consistent with many of the goals in Transportation Outlook 2040, however, TO2040 identifies additional goals for the Kansas City region s transportation system for placemaking, equity, public health, environment and climate change and energy use. MoDOT should also consider these goals in their transportation investments in the Kansas City region. Placemaking: Encourage MoDOT to add language to the 2018 update describing their role in working with local governments to ensure that state transportation investments support sound local land-use planning and decision-making. Equity: Encourage MoDOT to add language to the 2018 update discussing how the plan considers environmental justice and civil rights in its development and recommendations and to be more clear in addressing how the plan impacts decisions about transportation funding allocations across Missouri. Public Health: Encourage MoDOT to be proactive in identifying and implementing appropriate improvements to bicycle and pedestrian safety, comfort and convenience on the state highway system in order to support active transportation and improve public health throughout Missouri. Environment: Encourage MoDOT to go beyond avoiding and minimizing negative environmental impacts and be proactive in identifying and restoring high-quality environmental assets through their planning, construction, maintenance, operations and management practices. In the Kansas City region the Natural Resource Inventory and Green Infrastructure Atlas and Playbook can serve as references in support of this goal. Climate Change and Energy Use: Encourage MoDOT to go beyond reducing the carbon footprint and energy consumption of their own fleet operations to support efforts by MPOs, local governments, transit and other fleet operators to mitigate climate impacts of the transportation system and make the system more resilient to climate change. Emerging Technologies: Applaud MoDOT for including considerations for emerging technologies such as autonomous, connected and alternative-fueled vehicles in the 2018 update. Encourage MoDOT to be proactive in facilitating the safety and environmental benefits these technologies promise and in supporting shared-use applications to expand mobility options for all Missourians.

15 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 4a Community Development Local Government Services ISSUE: REPORT: Update on steps to enhance local government services and establishment of work groups to advise the shared services agenda BACKGROUND: MARC provides a number of services to local governments, including training, cooperative purchasing, research and analysis on issues and data, convening of groups around special topics, and program coordination and support. Over the past year, staff members have met (and continue to meet) with local government elected and appointed leaders to gain a better understanding of needs and opportunities to enhance MARC s services to local governments. In late 2017 and early 2018, MARC began work on two specific efforts to help local governments address growing concerns around cybersecurity and information technology. a) A work group was convened in summer 2017, led by Lee s Summit City Manager Steve Arbo, to outline a regional cybersecurity agenda. Todd Pelham, deputy city administrator of Lenexa, will co-chair these efforts with Mr. Arbo in b) A second group has been convened around local government needs to address a variety of information technology (IT) services. A survey of local governments in early 2018 identified a number of areas for possible shared services in this area. Discussions with local officials have also highlighted new areas for potential service expansion. In January, MARC created a new position specifically to support this work. An update on these activities will be presented at the board meeting. BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS MARC requests and accepts funds from cities and counties for the Government Training Institute membership and Government Innovations Forum. Local contributions to these programs enable MARC to support staff dedicated to providing important local government services. In addition, MARC s Cooperative Purchasing Program includes a modest fee on all contracts generated through the cooperative, which covers an experienced purchasing specialist s time. As new shared services are developed to meet the needs of area cities and counties, each service will have its own business plan detailing expected expenses and revenues to support the work. COMMITTEE ACTION No committee action required; MARC has convened work groups around the cybersecurity and information technology services, and will establish a new work group to advise its broader shared services agenda.

16 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 5a Aging and Adult Services ISSUE: REPORT: Update on efforts to broaden impact through service redesign and integrated care management strategies BACKGROUND: Across the nation, health care providers and payers are beginning to mount responses to changes in federal reimbursement for care provision that move reimbursement from a perservice fee to a value-based fee, or a focus on health outcomes rather than individual health products. To support real value of health care services, providers have identified a need to move beyond the four walls of a clinical setting into the community, where non-medical services are needed to avoid health-related declines in function. MARC s Managed Services Network (MSN) initiative seeks to establish an integrated network of community-based organizations to provide these non-medical services through sustainable contracts with health payers, providers and purchasers. In addition to the MSN initiative, MARC s Department of Aging and Adult Services is reorienting in an attempt to improve responsiveness to shifts in the health care landscape. This will require more effective service delivery, changes in the scope and credentialing of staff, and standards of professionalism and responsiveness usually reserved for the health care industry. Several specific examples have emerged that demonstrate this reorientation: Home-delivered meals model shift. New integrated care service line, including professional assessment, service coordination, and ability to contract with health payers. Refreshed long-term care ombudsman service, including exploration of a broader quality-assurance role in the community. Performance-based community center services contracts that move the focus of these community assets beyond provision of a meal. Details on each example will be shared, in addition to results from a recent systemwide survey of home-delivered meals clients. STAFF CONTACT: James Stowe

Over the past 18 months, MARC has worked with the National Park Service, local governments and local trails organizations to prepare a strategy concept plan for retracing three historic trails the Santa Fe, Oregon and California trails through the region. The purpose of the project is to create a system alignment that, once implemented at the local level, could be used by the public to explore these historic routes and connect with historic and community assets. The plan incorporates three historic trails through the following communities: Sugar Creek, Independence, Raytown and Kansas City in Jackson County, Missouri; and Leawood, Overland Park, Olathe, Gardner, Lenexa, Prairie Village, Westwood and Fairway in Johnson County, Kansas. Local communities hosted 25 meetings during the development of the plan. A draft document is online at: TgRNX0JRTw?e=4%3AlpmvT8. The plan will be finalized next month, and the MARC Board will be asked to adopt the plan and incorporate it as part of the Regional MetroGreen Greenway Trails Plan. Local communities will be asked to consider passing a resolution in support of the plan, and to determine how to incorporate the plan s recommendations into local plans and policy documents. DISCUSSION: Councilwoman Suter asked if federal funds were available for the plan. Ms. Nagel said that $51,000 was allocated by the National Park Service to develop the plan, and that a modest amount of additional funding might support pilot implementation but local governments would need to cover most implementation costs. She noted that once the plan is adopted as part of MetroGreen, applications for transportation funds might earn additional points during evaluation. UPDATE ON REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN 2050 MILESTONES AND MAJOR OBJECTIVES Martin Rivarola reviewed the 2 ½ year process currently underway to draft RTP 2050, the regional transportation plan. He referred Board members to a detailed handout that provided an overview of the planning process and timeline. He discussed steps taken to build a new policy framework for the plan, which included 1) a review of the 2040 policy framework; 2) incorporating key findings from the scenario planning process conducted in 2017; 3) an update to the regional vision; 4) public input through surveys and pop-up meetings; 5) a needs assessment; and 6) affirmation of current policy framework elements and the proposed addition of two new elements: data and technology, and fiscal sustainability. Mr. Rivarola said that the vision, needs assessment and policy

23 framework are still being refined and will come back to the Total Transportation Policy Committee and MARC Board of Directors in May for approval. Scenario analysis and modeling will continue through the summer and fall. DISCUSSION: David Warm said that updates to the Regional Transportation Plan move the region together and provide a coherent framework for the future. He noted that the plan approved in 2010 introduce investment strategies around key activity centers and corridors and that feedback from the public and stakeholders supports a recommitment to that strategy in RTP2050. He emphasized that the plan will delve into two new concepts: the need for an intentional focus on managing the implementation of new technology and the strong desire for fiscal sustainability. Committees and the Board will be engaged in discussions about funding options. UPDATE ON THE DRAFT LONG-RANGE FORECAST OF REGIONAL EMPLOYMENT AND POPULATION Frank Lenk provided a first look at the draft long-range forecast that will be used to inform transportation planning. Predicting future travel demand requires forecasting the number of people expected to reside in the region and the number of jobs there will be by that date. With oversight from the Technical Forecast Committee, MARC staff recently completed a draft 2050 forecast of total population and employment. The draft forecast projects: An increase in total employment from 1.2 million in 2010 to 1.7 million in A total population of 2.6 million in 2050 Population growth fueled by increasing migration, which will more than offset a decline in natural growth (births over deaths) Hispanics surpassing blacks as the region s largest minority group by 2035 Older adults accounting for 49 percent of the region s total population growth from Mr. Lenk said that the forecast will continue to be refined throughout the development of the Regional Transportation Plan. A final forecast will be adopted with the adoption of that plan. DISCUSSION: Councilman Jermaine Reed asked how the model works and what types of data inputs are used. Mr. Lenk said the model assumes growth is driven by employment. Employment determines labor demand, while demographics and labor force participation rates determine the labor supply. If demand is greater than supply, wages and the likelihood of employment increase relative to the rest of the nation. Labor is attracted here in the form of net migration. Councilwoman Suter asked how changing immigration policies might impact the forecast, given that growth is driven by migration. Mr. Lenk said the forecast assumes the region will get its share of available migration. Mr. Warm said that MARC will work with planning committees to forecast growth in different parts of the region, and that the Board will be asked to adopt the forecast later. He said the forecast is a cornerstone of the transportation plan. Councilwoman Suter mentioned the aging of the labor force, and wondered whether people will work longer as the population ages. Mr. Warm said that labor constraints will hasten automation, which is not well reflected in the model. AUTHORIZE MARC TO SUBMIT THE MID-AMERICA HEAD START GRANT APLICATION TO THE U.S. ADMINSTRATION FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, OFFICE OF HEAD START Jovannah Rohs reported that Mid-America Head Start plans to submit its grant application prior to the April 9 deadline. Over the last 18 months, MAHS has revamped its delivery structure to ensure that MAHS operations will 1) meet the current needs of the community, 2) comply with new revisions in Head Start Performance Standards, and 3) operate in an efficient,

24 effective, transparent and fiscally responsible manner. The new structure groups early education providers into three tiers based on their level of service. Ms. Rohs said that the new structure allows direct connections between MAHS and service providers. It includes a central intake system and transitions most programs to full-day schedules. New partners will be added, including Emmanuel Family and Child Development Center, the Excelsior Springs School District, and Front Porch Alliance, which provides home-based care. She said the role of the Family Conservancy will shift to include oversight of some home-based care providers, the central intake system and professional development. She also noted that the new structure will result in some location changes, and MAHS will work with providers to ease transitions for affected children and families. She also noted that Operation Breakthrough will have increased slots under the new structure. DISCUSSION: Councilman Reed asked how the allocation of dollars for each center is determined, and Ms. Rohs answered that it is based on the number of children and the tier category (level of support needed). MOTION: Mayor John McTaggart moved for approval and Councilmember Reed seconded. The motion passed. REVISE THE TOTAL TRANSPORTATION POLICY COMMITTEE BYLAWS TO ADD A VOTING MEMBER AND ALTERNATE FOR THE KANSAS CITY STREETCAR AUTHORITY Ron Achelpohl reported that during the 2017 federal certification review of MARC s metropolitan planning process, it was recommended that the Kansas City Streetcar Authority (KCSA) be formally recognized as a significant new provider of public transportation in Greater Kansas City. The KCSA has been added to the Memorandum of Understanding for the Kansas City metropolitan planning area but is not currently represented on MARC s Total Transportation Policy Committee (TTPC). Mr. Achelpohl said that TTPC recommends adding one (1) voting member and one (1) alternate for KCSA to TTPC for a total of forty-nine (49) voting members. There was no discussion. MOTION: Mayor Pro-Tem Scott Wagner moved for approval and Councilmember Reed seconded. The motion passed. ANNUAL REFRESHER ON BOARD MEMBER LIABILITY Mr. Warm reported that MARC carries liability insurance on Board members and while risks are minimal, Midwest Public Risk, MARC s insurance carrier, recommends an annual refresher. He briefly reviewed a handout in the agenda packet that highlighted potential areas of exposure and best practices for risk management. He asked Board members to contact him with any questions. There was no discussion. APPROVE CONSENT AGENDA Councilmember Suter asked for a motion to approve the consent agenda. Mayor Pro-Tem Wagner moved for approval and Commissioner Harold Johnson seconded the motion. The motion passed. a. Approve minutes of the February 27, 2018 Board meeting b.

38 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 7c Transportation & Environment Department Unified Planning Work Program ISSUE: VOTE: Approve an amendment to the 2018 Unified Planning Work Program BACKGROUND: The Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) 1) describes the transportation planning activities MARC and other agencies will undertake during the year; 2) documents the proposed expenditures of federal, state and local funds in support of applications for various planning grants; and 3) provides a management tool for MARC and the funding agencies in scheduling major transportation planning activities, milestones and products. The proposed 2018 UPWP Amendment #1 will make the following modifications: Revise task 2.7, Regional Household Travel Survey, to reduce 2018 Missouri Consolidated Program Grant (CPG) expenditures by $171,421. This amount of 2019 Missouri CPG will be included for the project when the 2019 MARC UPWP is developed. Revise task 2.3, Modeling/Forecasting Activities, to include $30,000 for contractual services related to the implementation of the UrbanSim modeling platform using the 2018 funding released from the first item. Revise task 5.2, Transportation Technology Planning and Integration, to increase CPG funding in 2018 for the Regional ITS Architecture Update by $65,778 using the 2018 funding released from the first item. Adjust individual task budgets to account for an overall increase in staff expenditures of $86,343. Reduce the MARC operating budget by $10,700 and reallocate to the items described above. Adjust the MARC consultant budget in Appendix C, Schedule 3 to reflect the consultant contract budget changes in tasks 2.3 and 5.2 described above; Add a new task for the Buck O Neil Bridge Replacement Environmental Assessment Add a new task funded through the Missouri Traffic Engineering Assistance Program (TEAP) to the Appendix E Related Activities o E.5 - Lightburne and Mill Street Intersection Study Liberty, MO The revisions are detailed at Plans-and-Studies/UPWP/UPWP-assets/2018_UPWP_Amend1.aspx. These revisions result in changes to MARC s budget and work activities for 2018 and will be released for public review and comment. BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS The amendment results in a shift of $171,421 of 2018 Missouri CPG funds from task 2.7 to 2019 and reallocates the 2018 funds to other tasks in the 2018 UPWP. RECOMMENDATION Approve Amendment #1 to the 2018 Unified Planning Work Program, reducing Missouri CPG funds allocated to the Regional Household Travel Survey in 2018 by $171,421, reallocating $182,121 as described above, and reducing MARC s 2018 operating budget by $10,700.

39 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 7d Transportation & Environment Department ISSUE: VOTE: Approve changes to the Roadway Functional Classification System BACKGROUND: Functional classification is the process by which roadways are categorized into classes, or systems, according to the type of service they are intended to provide. This system for roadway classification was developed by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), and has implications for the eligibility of a roadway to receive federal transportation funding. In addition to funding eligibility, the functional classification is used in planning, analysis, performance reporting and travel modeling. Periodically, MARC works with local jurisdictions and the State Departments of Transportation to review and recommend changes to the FHWA functional classification system. The tables included with this report contain a list of recommended changes. All changes comply with federal criteria and guidelines for roadway functional classification. COMMITTEE ACTION: The proposed changes to the functional classification system were reviewed and approved by the MARC Highway Committee on March 28, RECOMMENDATION: Approve the changes to the functional classification of 18 roadways in Lee s Summit, Missouri, and four roadways in Grandview, Missouri.

49 AGENDA REPORT MARC Board of Directors April 2018 Item No. 7g Aging and Adult Services SFY 2019 Aging Programs ISSUE: VOTE: Authorize tentative acceptance of designated Aging and Adult Services SFY 2019 proposals BACKGROUND: Tentative acceptance is sought for these proposals rather than final acceptance in order to accommodate the potential for appeals submitted by RFP respondents. The deadline for filing an appeal is May 1, All final recommendations will be presented at the May Board meeting. Requests for Proposals were released for selected service lines and programs. Services that were high-performing, or in which there was no immediate perceived opportunity to improve effectiveness, were renewed where contract provisions allowed (specifically, care management, in-home services and coordinated non-urban transportation for Ray County). Standardized scoring rubrics prioritized a combination of proposal value and cost effectiveness. The following services were received and scored by MARC: Transportation proposals (demand and demand lift ramp) Supportive services proposals (caregiver training & support; structured respite) Pre-Plated Home Delivered Meals proposals Community Center Services proposals Evidence-Based Disease Prevention, Health Promotion proposals The proposal deadline for catered meals was offset to allow for decisions on community center services, which impacts the scope and volume of the catered meal service. BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS: Costs associated with the implementation of service provision for all tentatively recommended service providers will be incorporated into the SFY 2019 Area Plan Budget. COMMITTEE ACTION: At its April 11 meeting, the Commission on Aging recommended tentative acceptance of designated Aging and Adult Services SFY 2019 proposals, as outlined on the attached service proposal rate chart.
