Anyone who is not an eligible recipient is encouraged to partner with an agency that is an eligible recipient. Discussion continued regarding specific potential projects and partnerships.
6. Roundtable updates – Discussion City of Sebastopol: Steve Weinberger reported that W-Trans is working on a bikelane design project for Sebastopol for Bodega Highway from the Dutton/Jewel intersection to the City limits, past Regal Park. Bike lanes will end at Regal and will connect with a two-way trail that will connect with West County Trail. Geoffrey Skinner noted another project is underway in the same area for a pedestrian crossing at Bodega and Nelson Way. Mr. Weinberger added that there are five intersections with pedestrian crossings improvements that have been adopted by council.
These include Florence, Washington, Robinson Road, Nelson near the Burbank Housing, and Regal. The City’s hope is to get this out to bid for construction at the beginning of next fiscal year. City of Petaluma: Curtis Bates reported that the City completed the Lakeville Street improvements between D Street and Caulfield, including green bicycle lanes on both sides of the street and an enhanced crosswalk at D Street and Copeland. The City is working with SMART on securing bike racks and lockers at the downtown station. Town of Windsor: Mona Ibrahim announced that the Town put out an RFP last week to seek help prioritizing an existing list of Class I bike/pedestrian trails with a cost analysis. Hoping to award the feasibility study in January 2017. Sonoma County: Steven Schmitz discussed the summer’s pavement preservation season and bicycle striping and signing installed in conjunction with repaving projects. These projects include striping on Rohnert Park Expressway West, Petaluma Hill Road, and Santa Rosa Avenue. Roughly 30 to 40 miles of Class 2 bike lanes installed over the past five years as part of repaving projects. The Bicycle Safety Campaign is moving along and contractors for graphic design is being sought. City of Santa Rosa: Nancy Adams provided an update on the Jennings Crossing project at SMART. The City is working with SMART on reimbursement agreement for construction work within the right of way after the start of 2017. The City will then do the Jennings Avenue portion. The City has a few TDA Article 3 projects underway, including Class II bike lanes and various green bike lanes.
The City is working on adjusting signal timing for minimum greens to try to make traffic work better for cyclists. The City is also participating in walking audits with the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition. Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition: Tina Panza provided an update on the database for Safe Routes to School, summarizing information on all of the infrastructure recommendations from past walking audits. The database should be complete soon. Ms. Panza would like to share the database with public works departments to figure out the best way to track these projects moving forward. Ms. Panza reported that the County’s GIS Department helped SCBC map recommendations, schools, etc. This will be a very useful tool for anyone looking for data around schools. Sonoma County Regional Parks: Elizabeth Tyree reported that Regional Parks applied for funding for a feasibility study for a multi-use trail along a - 9 mile stretch of the lower Russian River, from to odd Fellows Road to Duncans Mills. This is building on recommendations in the Lower Russian River Community Based Transportation Plan prepared by SCTA. A question was asked about the feasibility study for the Sebastopol/Petaluma Trail. Ms. Tyree responded that they are currently wrapping up the gathering information phase and will be scheduling the next meeting. City of Sonoma: Wendy Atkins announced that the City of Sonoma contracted with SCBC to develop press release about the top 10 things you should know about bikes. Ms. Atkins will send around the press release to Ms. Turréy for distribution to Committee members.
7. Caltrans District 4 Bike Plan – Presentation Ms. Turréy shared a presentation that summarized the goals, objectives, and work plan for the Caltrans District 4 Bike Plan that has recently commenced. She explained that there is a simultaneous but separate statewide Caltrans bike plan that is being prepared. The statewide plan focuses on policy while the District 4 plan focuses on projects and local goals. Caltrans has set a goal to triple bicycling by 2020. The District 4 Plan will prioritize bicycle projects around the state highway system and identify barriers to bicycling. Coordination with Sonoma County jurisdictions will be focused through the CBPAC. Public meetings will be planned across the region and online outreach will be heavily relied upon. The first step is to look at existing conditions. The SCTA is working with Caltrans staff to provide data on the current bicycle network.
8. Call for Projects – Caltrans Bike Plan and Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan – Discussion
A request for updated project lists for the Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan was included in the agenda packet. Updates on completed, new, and changed projects are requested by the end of the calendar year. These updates will serve to update the Countywide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan project list and maps, as well as provide information for the Caltrans District 4 Bike Plan. Project lists were sent out to local bike planning staff individually.
Jurisdictions with projects in the Community Based Transportation Plans were also asked to provide status updates on these projects.
9. TDA3/TFCA Quarterly Report – Information Dana Turréy summarized the status of various active projects as of the end of the first quarter of FY 2017.
10. TDA3 Draft Score Card for FY17/18 Call for Projects – Discussion

11. ATP Cycle 3 State Grant Recommendations – Information
Dana Turréy pointed to a list of the recommended projects for the Statewide ATP Cycle 3 grant. The SMART Pathway segment in Petaluma is included on the list. None of the other Sonoma County projects submitted were recommended for the Statewide program. The separate Regional ATP program recommendations are expected to come out in December.

Staff Report
To: Countywide Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee
From: Dana Turrey, Transportation Planner
Item: CBPAC Officer Elections for 2017
Date: January 24, 2017
Issue:
Who shall serve as Chair and Vice Chair of the Countywide Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee (CBPAC) for 2017?
Background:
The committee’s purpose is to provide technical assistance to the Sonoma County Transportation Authority (SCTA) related to bicycle and pedestrian planning and funding. The CBPAC meetings serve as a forum for the exchange of information about bicyclist and pedestrian issues and to coordinate efforts countywide.
Officers: SCTA’s Ordinance No.3 requires that a Chair and Vice Chair be elected at the first meeting of the year to lead the CBPAC during the calendar year. Officers must be members of the CBPAC. There are no other requirements or term limits.
Wendy Atkins, City of Sonoma staff member, has been Chair during 2011-2016 and has decided to step down from this role in 2017. Geoffrey Skinner, City of Sebastopol citizen member, has been Vice Chair during 2015-2016.
Nominations: Incumbent and/or additional nominations, including self-nomination, from the pool of members may be made for either office at the January meeting or earlier.
Organization: The officers elected in January are to accept responsibility for conducting the CBPAC meetings, as well as representing the CBPAC before the SCTA Board and at other venues as necessary.
Meetings: There are to be approximately six regular meetings of the CBPAC in 2017. Additional meetings may be scheduled, or meetings cancelled, according to need. Meetings are open to the public.
Membership: The membership of CBPAC is designated as up to twenty (20) members, based on the ten (10) jurisdictions of Sonoma County (the County and its nine city/town entities). Each jurisdiction may appoint a staff person and a resident representative. Regional and other agencies that may send representatives are considered ex-officio, non-voting members.
Voting: Each member, excluding non-voting members, shall have one vote on any matter to come before the committee for a vote. SCTA, however, recommends the CBPAC reach consensus on issues. If consensus is not reached, a minority opinion report can and should be made at the SCTA Board meeting if the issue is to go to the Board for a decision.
Action Requested:
Voting members are requested to elect a Chair and Vice-Chair for service on the CBPAC in 2017.

From: Dana Turréy, Transportation Planner
Re: Transportation Development Act, Article 3, Call for Projects FY 2017-2018
Date: January 17, 2016
APPLICATIONS DUE BY 5:00 P.M. ON MARCH 17, 2017
Call for Bicycle and Pedestrian Projects:
All eligible jurisdictions are invited to submit projects for the Transportation Development Act, Article 3 Program. Please see the attached “scorecard” showing funds available to each eligible entity.
Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds are generated from a statewide ¼ cent sales tax. Article 3 of TDA (TDA3) is a set-aside of approximately 2% of those funds for bicycle and pedestrian planning and projects. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) administers TDA3, which is distributed based on population. The TDA3 program manager at MTC is Cheryl Chi.
Sonoma County’s incorporated cities/town and the County of Sonoma are eligible to apply. Each year an annual fund estimate (entitlement) is developed for each jurisdiction based on population, with unused entitlements allowed to accumulate from year to year as “credit.” A jurisdiction’s claim for any given year is not allowed to exceed the amount equal to the accumulated credit plus the following two years of projected entitlement. This mechanism allows jurisdictions to gather sufficient amounts, from past and future entitlements, to fund projects. Programming in any given year, however, cannot exceed the sum of the total revenues available to Sonoma County as a whole.
TDA3 funds may be used for bicycle lanes, bicycle and pedestrian paths, and related planning and marketing efforts. There are no matching requirements with this funding source. Projects are required to meet Caltrans safety design criteria and CEQA requirements; be completed within three years; be maintained; be consistent with adopted bicycle plans; and be authorized by a city/town council or county board.
Projects are recommended by existing city, town and county bicycle and pedestrian advisory committees (BPACs).

Metropolitan Transportation Commission Programming and Allocations Committee
January 11, 2017 Item Number 4a
Resolution No. 4218, Revised
Subject: Cycle 3 Regional Active Transportation Program (ATP) of Projects
Background: The State established the Active Transportation Program (ATP) in September 2013. The ATP funding is distributed as follows: 50% to the state for a statewide competitive program (“Statewide
Competitive ATP”); 10% to the small urban and rural area competitive program to be
managed by the state; and 40% to the large urbanized area competitive program, with funding
distributed by population and managed by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (“Regional ATP”).
MTC is responsible for developing the region’s guidelines for the
Regional ATP, and for submitting the proposed projects to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for adoption. CTC approved MTC’s Regional ATP Guidelines in March 2016, and applications for the Regional Program were due to MTC on June 15, 2016. Roughly $22 million is available for programming under the Cycle 3 Regional ATP. MTC staff’s recommended regional project awards and recommended contingency projects are listed in Attachment 1. Statewide Competitive ATP Results The CTC adopted the Statewide Competitive ATP list of projects on December 7, 2016. The approved Bay Area projects are listed in Attachment 2. CTC funded six projects in the MTC region for a total of $32 million, out of a statewide program of $132 million (24%). Revised ATP Regional Share Targets and Schedule The CTC approved a revised ATP Fund Estimate in October that adds funding from federal sources and the State Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund. This amount was distributed among all three ATP subprograms. The revised amount provides $1.5 million in additional funds to the MTC program, and allows MTC to program $22.2 million in the 2017 Regional ATP. This is reflected in MTC Resolution No. 4218, Revised, Attachment A, Appendix A-2. Further, MTC staff proposes to update the ATP schedule, which is included in the same resolution as Appendix A-1. Regional Project Selection Process MTC received 61 applications totaling about $166 million in response to the Regional ATP Call for Projects. Of these, Caltrans deemed one project in San Francisco ineligible for ATP funds due to scope. MTC enlisted a 18-member multi-disciplinary evaluation committee to score and rank the remaining applications (see Attachment 3). The review committee used the same evaluation form and scoring criteria from Statewide Competitive ATP, plus an additional 10 maximum points for regional priorities, for a maximum point score of 110.
Programming and Allocations Committee Item 4a January 11, 2017 Page 2 of 3
Each application was assigned to a team of three members of the evaluation committee. In order to ensure an objective review, staff assigned applications to evaluators from another county when possible, and evaluators did not review applications from their own agency. Each evaluator independently scored the applications, then met with the team to agree on a consensus score. Staff ranked all responsive applications from highest to lowest based on the consensus score. Staff recommends fully funding 13 projects and partially funding one project for a total of $22.2 million. This figure includes 9 projects requesting less than $1 million to meet MTC’s 20% funding target for smaller projects. Staff also recommends adoption of a list of contingency projects totaling $18 million, ranked in order based on the project’s evaluation score. MTC would fund projects on the contingency list should there be any project failures, ineligibility determinations, or savings in the Cycle 3 Regional ATP. The recommended projects are listed in Attachment 1. Note that 94% of regional ATP funding as proposed would benefit Communities of Concern, greatly exceeding the 25% target. While there is no regional target for Safe Routes to Schools (SRTS) projects, 79% of regional ATP funding would benefit SRTS type projects.
Issues: 1. Tie Score: Both SFMTA’s Vision Zero Safer Intersection project and Suisun City’s McCoy Creek Trail project scored 87.0. In order to break the tie score, staff examined three score metrics, based on State and Regional ATP Guidelines and sub-element scores, and determined Suisun City’s project scored higher.
2. Partial Funding: The McCoy Creek Trail project sponsored by Suisun City requested $4.1 million in ATP funds; however, only $1.8 million of ATP remains after funding higher-scoring projects. Therefore, staff recommends partially funding the McCoy Creek Trail project at $1.8 million. Should Suisun City not be able to scale the project to deliver the full project benefits, or to fully fund the project using other funds, staff recommends funding projects on the contingency list to fully program the remaining $1.8 million.
3. Caltrans Eligibility Determination Pending: Caltrans performed an initial examination of scope eligibility and deliverability for all projects applying for ATP funds, and found that a number of projects have potential issues. Once MTC releases its staff recommendations, Caltrans will begin a more in-depth review of eligibility and deliverability, and will work with the affected project sponsors. Therefore, it is important for sponsors to note that MTC’s proposed funding amounts are not final, and are subject to this review. Following review and agreement, MTC and CTC may amend the project descriptions and funding amounts.
Programming and Allocations Committee Item 4a January 11, 2017 Page 3 of 3
4. Improvements for Cycle 4: Between the Statewide and Regional ATP, every Bay Area county received at least one project from Cycle 3. However, the funding amounts in the regional program very significantly by county, especially for the two largest counties in the Bay Area. State law requires MTC to hold a competitive process to determine the funding program, and does not allow for geographic guarantees in the competitive process. Further, with 100% of Statewide ATP funding benefiting Disadvantaged Communities, and 94% of Regional ATP funding benefiting Communities of Concern, it is clear that projects not benefiting DACs/COCs are at a distinct disadvantage competing for ATP funds. In light of these results in Cycle 3, staff will consider the following options in developing the Cycle 4 Regional Program Guidelines (in no particular order):
Reduce or eliminate additional points for Disadvantaged Communities, while ensuring the 25% statutory target is met;
Reduce or eliminate 20% funding set-aside for projects requesting under $1 million;
Increase the points assigned to regional priorities; Delegate scoring of “regional priorities” section of application to
MTC staff, rather than the review teams; Revise evaluation process to allow for a second level review for
the highest scoring third or half of applications; Cap the number of applications a sponsor can submit; Cap the number of projects for which a sponsor can receive ATP
funds; Cap the amount of ATP funds a sponsor can receive; and Institute a maximum funding request amount by project and/or
sponsor.
MTC anticipates the Cycle 4 process to begin in 2018. Staff will consult with stakeholders on any changes to the scoring process and will return to this committee for approval of any revised review process.
Recommendation: Refer MTC Resolution No. 4218, Revised to the Commission for
approval, and direct staff to transmit the recommended project list to the CTC.
