It is a blueprint that describes how the region will invest in its multimodal transportation system over the next 25 years. The GIAMPO amends the LRTP to accommodate changes to projects in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The proposed Amendment No. 4 to the 2045 LRTP modifies the potential funding sources for one (1) fiscally constrained project and adjusts the fiscally constrained plan of the plan to include additional anticipated federal revenue. The details of the proposed amendment appear below. Amend Fiscally Constrained Roadway Project Project ID: 7 Project Description: Broadwell Ave at UP railroad Improvement Type: Grade Separation Actions: 1.Modify the potential funding sources from “Local / State” to “Local / Other / Federal” in Table 9-3 (Fiscally Constrained Roadway Projects) of the LRTP. SFTY represents a federal funding source, and OTHER represents funding from the railroad. Other: The proposed Amendment No. 1 to the FY 2023-2027 Transportation Improvement adds a new project (TIP Number: 2023-002, Project Name: Broadwell Avenue Viaduct). LRTP Amendment No. 4 is the result of this TIP amendment. An LRTP amendment is required when adding federal funding sources or changing from one federal funding category to another for a project, in accordance with the NDOT Operating Manual for Metropolitan Planning Organization Transportation Planning.

The location and implementation time band for each fiscally constrained roadway project is shown in Figure 9-1. High Priority Vision roadway projects are included in this figure while Table 9-5 summarizes them. The fiscally constrained bicycle and pedestrian projects are presented in Table 9-4. The location and implementation time band for each fiscally constrained bicycle and pedestrian project is shown in Figure 9-2. High Priority Vision bicycle and pedestrian projects are included in this figure while Table 9-5 summarizes them. The next three sub-sections address the LRTP’s fiscal constraint by describing the anticipated budget, projects costs, and budget balance by major funding category: HSIP, STBG-TA, and local funding. HSIP Fiscal Constraint As outlined in Chapter 7, HSIP funds are not directly allocated to GIAMPO on an annual basis but are reasonably expected to be awarded in proportion to regional needs for eligible projects. Based on the project funding assumptions in Table 9-3, the following summarizes HSIP budgets, project costs, and balances: • HSIP Budget: $37,941,000 in year-of-expenditure HSIP funds are projected for the GIAMPO area for the years 2026-2045.1 • HSIP Project Costs: $30,816,000 in year-of-expenditure HSIP project costs for the 2026-2045 period.1 This specifically includes: • $29,856,000 in Short-term (2026-2030) HSIP project funding • $960,000 in Mid-term (2031-2037) HSIP project funding • Remaining HSIP Budget Balance: $7,125,000 balance in HSIP funds between 2026-2045.2 STBG-TA Fiscal Constraint As with HSIP funds, STBG-TA funds are not directly allocated to GIAMPO annually. The reasonably-expected funding levels were evaluated against eligible project costs. Based on the project funding assumptions in Table 9-4, the following summarizes STBG-TA budgets, project costs, and balances: 1 The HSIP budget and project costs includes $27,368,000 in SFTY funds for the Broadwell Avenue Viaduct. This project is identified in Amendment No. 1 to the GIAMPO FY 2023-2027 TIP, and it is Project ID 7 in the LRTP. SFTY funds is known as Highway Safety Improvement Program (includes Rail Safety) in the NDOT STIP. 2 Note these are not actual remaining funds but illustrate that assumed HSIP funding contributions are below the anticipated regional HSIP funding budget. 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan Update | 9-3 CHAPTER 10 CHAPTER 11 HOME CONTENTS PROJECT DESCRIPTION COST (YOE $) Urban Transit Operations $3,711,000 Rural Transit Operations $164,000 Transit Planning $100,000 Transit Capital Acquisition $5,534,000 Transit Development Plan $150,000 CHAPTER 9 FISCALLY CONSTRAINED PLAN CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 3 CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER 9 CHAPTER 7 High Priority Vision projects are transportation investments that do not fit within the current fiscally constrained budget but would be the first projects that GIAMPO and member jurisdictions would promote into the Transportation Improvement Program should additional future funding become available. Grand Island Regular Session - 11/22/2022 Page 17 / 31 • STBG-TA Budget: $4,849,700 in year-of-expenditure STBG-TA funds are projected for the GIAMPO area for the years 2026-2045. • STBG-TA Project Costs: $4,837,500 in year-of-expenditure STBG-TA project funding for the 2026-2045 period. This specifically includes: • $952,000 in Short-term (2026-2030) STBG-TA project funding • $1,605,500 in Mid-term (2031-2037) STBG-TA project funding • $2,280,000 in Long-term (2038-2045) STBG-TA project funding • Remaining STBG-TA Budget Balance: $12,200 balance in STBG-TA funds between 2026-2045.3 Local Fiscal Constraint As outlined in Chapter 7, there are several local transportation funding sources used by the City of Grand Island. The reasonably expected local transportation funding levels were evaluated against eligible project costs. Based on the project funding assumptions in Table 9-3 and Table 9-4, the following summarizes local transportation funding budgets, project costs, and balances: • Local Transportation Budget: $70,111,400 in year-of-expenditure local funds are projected for the GIAMPO area, after anticipated required operations and maintenance investments, for the years 2026 2045. • Local Transportation Project Costs: $60,388,500 in year-of- expenditure local transportation project costs for the 2026-2045 period. This specifically includes: • $21,243,000 in short term (2026-2030) local roadway project funding and $448,000 in STBG-TA local funds matching. • $9,880,000 in mid term (2031-2037) local roadway project funding and $742,000 in STBG-TA local funds matching. • $27,540,000 in long term (2038-2045) local roadway project funding and $527,500 in STBG-TA local funds matching. • Remaining Local Transportation Budget Balance: $9,731,500 balance in local transportation funds between 2026-2045. 3 Note these are not actual remaining funds but illustrate that assumed STBG-TA funding contributions are below the anticipated regional STBG-TA funding budget. 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan Update | 9-4 CHAPTER 10 CHAPTER 11 HOME CONTENTS CHAPTER 9 FISCALLY CONSTRAINED PLAN CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 3 CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER 9 CHAPTER 7 Grand Island Regular Session - 11/22/2022 Page 18 / 31 Table 9-3: Fiscally Constrained Roadway Projects TIME FRAME PROJECT ID PROJECT DESCRIPTION IMPROVEMENT TYPE COST (2020 $) COST (YOE $) POTENTIAL LOCAL SHARE POTENTIAL FUNDING SOURCES POTENTIAL SPONSOR(S) 4 Claude Rd, Faidley to State New Corridor $5,950,000 $8,140,000 $8,140,000 Developer / Local City of Grand Island 7 Broadwell Ave at UP railroad Grade Separation $25,000,000 $34,210,000 $3,421,000 Local / Other / SFTY City of Grand Island Short-Term (2026- 2030) 9 Locust St/Walnut St, 1st to Fonner Park Reconstruction and Intersection Improvement $6,620,000 $9,060,000 $9,060,000 City City of Grand Island 10 State St west of US 281 Access Management $750,000 $1,030,000 $206,000 HSIP / City City of Grand Island 11 13th St west of US 281 Access Management $760,000 $1,040,000 $208,000 HSIP / City City of Grand Island 12 Faidley Ave west of US 281 Access Management $760,000 $1,040,000 $208,000 HSIP / City City of Grand Island Mid-Term (2031- 2037) 16a Capital Ave, Broadwell to St Paul Widen $5,150,000 $8,920,000 $8,920,000 City City of Grand Island 22 State St, Lafayette to Broadwell Widen $1,400,000 $1,920,000 $960,000 HSIP / City City of Grand Island 2 13th St, North Ave to Independence Ave Widen $3,850,000 $8,950,000 $8,950,000 City City of Grand Island Long-Term (2038- 2045) 25 Old Potash, Engelman to North Widen $5,000,000 $11,620,000 $11,620,000 City City of Grand Island 27 Stolley Park Road widening to 3 lanes between Kingswood Dr and Stuhr Rd Widen $3,000,000 $6,970,000 $6,970,000 City City of Grand Island 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan Update | 9-5 CHAPTER 10 CHAPTER 11 HOME CONTENTS CHAPTER 9 FISCALLY CONSTRAINED PLAN CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 3 CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER 9 CHAPTER 7 Grand Island Regular Session - 11/22/2022 Page 19 / 31 GIAMPO RESOLUTION NO. 2022-7 Grand Island Area Metropolitan Planning Organization A Resolution Amending the 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan WHEREAS, the Grand Island Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (GIAMPO), is designated as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Grand Island Urbanized Area, by the Governor acting through the Nebraska Department of Transportation in cooperation with locally elected officials of the Grand Island Urbanized Area; and WHEREAS, a Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) is required by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and was developed by the MPO for the Grand Island metropolitan planning area; and WHEREAS, the GIAMPO 2045 LRTP was approved by the Policy Board of the MPO on February 23, 2021.

The location and implementation time band for each fiscally constrained roadway project is shown in Figure 9-1. High Priority Vision roadway projects are included in this figure while Table 9-5 summarizes them. The fiscally constrained bicycle and pedestrian projects are presented in Table 9-4. The location and implementation time band for each fiscally constrained bicycle and pedestrian project is shown in Figure 9-2. High Priority Vision bicycle and pedestrian projects are included in this figure while Table 9-5 summarizes them. The next three sub-sections address the LRTP’s fiscal constraint by describing the anticipated budget, projects costs, and budget balance by major funding category: HSIP, STBG-TA, and local funding. HSIP Fiscal Constraint As outlined in Chapter 7, HSIP funds are not directly allocated to GIAMPO on an annual basis but are reasonably expected to be awarded in proportion to regional needs for eligible projects. Based on the project funding assumptions in Table 9-3, the following summarizes HSIP budgets, project costs, and balances: •HSIP Budget: $37,941,000 in year-of-expenditure HSIP funds areprojected for the GIAMPO area for the years 2026-2045.1 •HSIP Project Costs: $30,816,000 in year-of-expenditure HSIPproject costs for the 2026-2045 period.1 This specifically includes: •$29,856,000 in Short-term (2026-2030) HSIP project funding •$960,000 in Mid-term (2031-2037) HSIP project funding•Remaining HSIP Budget Balance: $7,125,000 balance in HSIPfunds between 2026-2045.2 STBG-TA Fiscal Constraint As with HSIP funds, STBG-TA funds are not directly allocated to GIAMPO annually. The reasonably-expected funding levels were evaluated against eligible project costs. Based on the project funding assumptions in Table 9-4, the following summarizes STBG-TA budgets, project costs, and balances: 1 The HSIP budget and project costs includes $27,368,000 in SFTY funds for the Broadwell Avenue Viaduct. This project is identified in Amendment No. 1 to the GIAMPO FY 2023-2027 TIP, and it is Project ID 7 in the LRTP. SFTY funds is known as Highway Safety Improvement Program (includes Rail Safety) in the NDOT STIP. 2 Note these are not actual remaining funds but illustrate that assumed HSIP funding contributions are below the anticipated regional HSIP funding budget. 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan Update | 9-3 CHAPTER 10 CHAPTER 11 HOME CONTENTS PROJECT DESCRIPTION COST (YOE $) Urban Transit Operations $3,711,000 Rural Transit Operations $164,000 Transit Planning $100,000 Transit Capital Acquisition $5,534,000 Transit Development Plan $150,000 CHAPTER 9 FISCALLY CONSTRAINED PLAN CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 3 CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER 8 CHAPTER 9 CHAPTER 7 High Priority Vision projects are transportation investments that do not fit within the current fiscally constrained budget but would be the first projects that GIAMPO and member jurisdictions would promote into the Transportation Improvement Program should additional future funding become available. Exhibit A, page 5 of 7 Grand Island Regular Session - 11/22/2022 Page 25 / 31 •STBG-TA Budget: $4,849,700 in year-of-expenditure STBG-TA fundsare projected for the GIAMPO area for the years 2026-2045.•STBG-TA Project Costs: $4,837,500 in year-of-expenditure STBG-TA project funding for the 2026-2045 period.

The study will help the City of Grand Island plan for the future of public transit in the Grand Island/Hall County area. The GO GI Transit plan is analyzing the current CRANE Public Transit system and developing potential future service options based on current and anticipated future needs. Ultimately, GO GI will result in an implementable and fundable plan for the next 10, and even 20, years to meet the short- and long-term needs of transit service in the Grand Island community. The GO GI Transit study process began in October 2021 and is estimated to be completed in February 2023. The project website is located at www.crane- transit.com/i-want-to/gogi. City staff will provide an update on the Transit Development Plan (GO GI Transit) at the November 22 meeting. This update will include the draft recommendations of the study. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS/DISCUSSION After the completion of the Transit Development Plan (GO GI Transit), GIAMPO may need to amend the 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan to reflect the plan recommendations. BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS None. COMMITTEE ACTION None. The Technical Advisory Committee is scheduled to make a recommendation to approve the Draft Transit Development Plan document and to release it for public review and comment at the December 12, 2022 TAC meeting. RECOMMENDATION None. Information only. STAFF CONTACT Allan Zafft Date Grand Island Regular Session - 11/22/2022 Page 31 / 31
