Roll Call
Roll call was taken.
Approval of Minutes from the October 17, 2022 Technical Advisory Committee Meeting
Motion by Falmlen to approve the minutes of the October 17, 2022 meeting, seconded by Kurz.
Upon voice vote, all voted aye. Motion adopted.
Approval Recommendation of Draft Final Transit Development Plan
Zafft introduced Jason Carbee, who gave a presentation on the Draft Transit Development Plan,
which began in October 2021 and is scheduled to be completed in February 2023. This presentation
provided an overview of each chapter of the draft document. The Draft Transit Development Plan
will be made available for a 30-day public comment period.
Motion by Wacker to approve the Recommendation of Draft Final Transit Development Plan,
seconded by Schafer. Upon voice vote, all voted aye. Motion adopted.
Discussion on the Next Potential Amendment to the Long Range Transportation Plan
Zafft notified TAC that the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) may submit major
changes to NDOT projects for the GIAMPO FY 2023-2027 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
in January 2023, which would require TIP amendment approvals at the Technical Advisory Committee
(TAC) and Policy Board meetings in February 2023. These major changes would require an
amendment to the 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP).
The GIAMPO Public Participation Plan requires a 30-day public comment period for a proposed
amendment to the LRTP prior to approval by the Policy Board. As specified in the Public Participation
Plan, one of the minimum required techniques & strategies for updates and amendments to the LRTP
is a discussion with the TAC prior to the public comment period. The time period between the
February 2023 TAC and Policy Board meetings is less than 30 days. The discussion of the next
potential amendment to the 2045 LRTP at the December 12 TAC meeting will satisfy the requirement
for a discussion with the TAC prior to the public comment period.
Report on the Comprehensive Plan Update
Nabity reported on the Comprehensive Plan, which will take place over the course of FY 2022, 2023,
and 2024. The plan process is expected to take place between 18 to 24 months from the time it
began in April 2022. A kickoff meeting was held in June 2022 and a series of open house meetings
were held on October 25-27, 2022. An open house meeting is planned for late January 2023.
Next Meeting Date
The next meeting of the TAC will be on February 13, 2023 at 10:00 am. Nabity indicated that he will
be unable to attend this TAC meeting.
Adjournment
There being no further business, Nabity adjourned the meeting at 10:33 am.

MPO Targets for Safety Performance Measures
TAC Agenda Report | 1
TAC Agenda Report Agenda Item No. H3
February 9, 2023
ISSUE
VOTE: MPO Targets for Safety Performance Measures
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration requires State Department of Transportations
(DOTs) and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to adopt targets for five
performance measures for traffic safety (see attached fact sheet). State DOTs are
required to establish statewide targets in their Highway Safety Improvement Program
(HSIP) Annual Report for all five performance measures by August 31 of each year.
MPOs have the option of supporting the statewide targets, or establishing their own
regional targets within 180 days of the establishment of state targets.
The Grand Island Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (GIAMPO) approved to
support the state’s annual safety performance targets for 2018 through 2022.
GIAMPO staff recommends to support the NDOT 2023 targets for the safety
performance measures (see attached NDOT HSIP Performance Measures) as the
most prudent and feasible alternative. The core reasons to not establishing regional
targets include the following:
NDOT met all safety targets for 2020 except the serious injury rate; however,
the serious injury rate was better than the 5-year rolling average baseline. As a
result, NDOT met or made significant progress toward meeting its 2020 safety
performance targets. NDOT met the targets for 2021 for number and rate of
fatalities. Serious injury data for 2021 is not yet available as of the release of
this TAC agenda report.
Need to determine the methodology to estimate annual vehicle miles traveled
(VMT) for all public roads within the GIAMPO metropolitan planning area from
2013 to 2021, if GIAMPO would establish rate targets.
Need to process the accident data within the GIAMPO metropolitan planning
area from 2013 to 2021 to determine the 5-year rolling averages on the five
performance measures for comparative purposes and to determine a baseline,
if GIAMPO would establish targets. Note: Accident data for 2021 should be
available to Nebraska MPOs in the summer of 2023.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS/DISCUSSION
Federal regulations require State DOTs and MPOs to adopt targets for traffic safety.
With supporting the statewide 2023 targets, GIAMPO is agreeing to plan and
program projects in a manner that contributes towards the accomplishment of the
NDOT safety targets.

Safety Performance Measures
Fact Sheet
Safety Performance Measures
Number of Fatalities: The total number of persons suffering fatal injuries in
a motor vehicle crash during a calendar year.
Rate of Fatalities: The ratio of total number of fatalities to the number of
vehicle miles traveled (VMT, in 100 Million VMT) in a calendar year.
Number of Serious Injuries: The total number of persons suffering at least
one serious injury in a motor vehicle crash during a calendar year.
Rate of Serious Injuries: The ratio of total number of serious injuries to the
number of VMT (in 100 Million VMT) in a calendar year.
Number of Non-motorized Fatalities and Non-motorized Serious Injuries:
The combined total number of non-motorized fatalities and non-motorized
serious injuries involving a motor vehicle during a calendar year.
Data Sources
Fatality Data: Fatality Analysis
Reporting System (FARS). Final FARS
data is to be used if it is available,
otherwise FARS Annual Report File
(ARF) data may be used, which is
generally available one year before
Final FARS data.
Volume Data: State VMT data is
derived from the Highway
Performance Monitoring System
(HPMS). Metropolitan Planning
Organization (MPO) VMT, if
applicable, is estimated by the MPO.
Serious Injury Data: State motor
vehicle crash database. Agencies must
use the definition for “Suspected
Serious Injury (A)” from the MMUCC,
4th edition by April 15, 2019. Prior to
April 15, 2019 agencies may use
injuries classified as “A” on the KABCO
scale through use of serious injury
conversion tables. However, agencies
are encouraged to begin using the
MMUCC, 4th edition definition and
attributes at the beginning of 2019 for
a complete and consistent data file for
the calendar year.
Number of Non-motorized Fatalities
and Non-motorized Serious Injuries:
FARS and State motor vehicle crash
database. The number of non-motorized
fatalities is the total number of fatalities
with the FARS person attribute codes:
(5) Pedestrian, (6) Bicyclist, (7) Other
Cyclist, and (8) Person on Personal
Conveyance. The number of non-
motorized serious injuries is the total
number of serious injuries where the
injured person is, or is equivalent to, a
pedestrian (2.2.36) or a pedalcyclist
(2.2.39) as defined in ANSI D16.1-2007.
What You Need to Know About Establishing Targets
States:
• States will first establish statewide targets in their August 31, 2017 HSIP Annual Report for calendar year 2018, and annually thereafter.
• Targets are applicable to all public roads regardless of functional classification or ownership.
• For common performance measures (number of fatalities, rate of fatalities and number of serious injuries), targets must be identical to the targets established for the NHTSA Highway Safety Grants program in the Highway Safety Plan.
• States also have the option to establish any number of urbanized area targets and one non-urbanized area target for any or all of the measures. If a State chooses to do so, it is required to report the urbanized area boundaries used and evaluate and report progress for each target. Urbanized and non-urbanized area targets are not included in the significant progress determination.
Coordination and Collaboration:
• Performance management connects the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and Highway Safety Plan (HSP) to the
Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) to promote a coordinated relationship for common performance measures, resulting in
comprehensive transportation and safety planning.
• The State DOT and MPOs in the State must coordinate when establishing targets, to the maximum extent practicable.
• A wide range of stakeholders should work together to establish targets. This includes, the State DOT, State Highway Safety Office,
MPOs, FHWA Division Office, NHTSA Regional Office, Law Enforcement Agencies and EMS (include all 4 E’s of Highway Safety)
• Set targets that are data-driven and realistic, maintain momentum and remain focused.

What You Need to Know About
Establishing Targets (continued)
MPOs:
• MPOs must establish targets specific to the MPO planning area for the same five safety performance measures for all public roads
in the MPO planning area within 180 days after the State establishes each target. MPOs may select one of the following options for
each individual safety performance measure:
• agreeing to support the State target; OR
• establishing specific numeric targets for a safety performance measure (number or rate).
• MPOs that choose to establish a rate target must report the VMT estimate used to establish that target and the methodology to
develop the VMT estimate. MPOs should make maximum use of data prepared for HPMS when preparing the rate-based target
denominator. If an MPO develops data specifically for the denominator, it should use methods to compute VMT that are consistent
with those used for other Federal reporting purposes.
• MPO targets are reported to the State DOT, and made available to FHWA, upon request. MPO targets are not included in the
assessment of whether a State has met or made significant progress toward meeting its targets.

Example Target Calculations
5-Year Rolling Average: Each target is based on a 5-year rolling average, which is the average of 5 individual, consecutive points of data.
The 5-year rolling average provides a better understanding of the overall data over time without eliminating years with significant
increases or decreases; and provides a mechanism for accounting for regression to the mean. If a particularly high or low number of
fatalities and/or serious injuries occur in one year, a return to a level consistent with the average in the previous year may occur.
The number targets are calculated by adding the number for the measure for each of the most recent 5 consecutive years ending in the
year for which the targets are established, dividing by 5, and rounding to the tenth decimal place. The rate targets are calculated
similarly yet rounded to the thousandth decimal place. This more accurately reveals the change from one 5-year average to another
that might otherwise be obscured if the number was truncated.
Example: Number of Fatalities
Year 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
Number of Fatalities 471 468 493 468 462*
*From FARS Annual Report File, if Final FARS is not available
To determine the target for number of fatalities:
• Add the number of fatalities for the most recent 5
consecutive calendar years ending in the year for which the
targets are established: 471 + 468 + 493 + 468 + 462 = 2,362
• Divide by five and round to the nearest tenth decimal place:
2,362 / 5 = 472.4
Example: Rate of Fatalities per 100 Million VMT
Year 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015
Number of Fatalities 471 468 493 468 462*
Per 100 Million VMT 454.21 487.50 466.48 492.27 495.97
Rate of Fatalities 1.04 0.96 1.06 0.95 0.93
*From FARS Annual Report File, if Final FARS is not available
To determine the target for rate of fatalities:
• Add the rate of fatalities for the most recent 5 consecutive
calendar years ending in the year for which the targets are
established: 1.04 + 0.96 + 1.06 + 0.95 + 0.93 = 4.94
• Divide by five and round to the nearest thousandth decimal
place: 4.94 / 5 = 0.988

ISSUE
VOTE: MPO Targets for Infrastructure Condition Performance Measures
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration requires State Department of Transportations
(DOTs) and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to adopt targets for six
performance measures every four years relating to infrastructure condition on the
National Highway System (NHS). There are four performance measures for
pavement condition and two performance measures for bridge condition (see
attached TPM fact sheets). State DOTs were required to establish performance
targets for these measures by December 16, 2022. MPOs have the option of
supporting the statewide targets, or establishing their own regional targets within 180
days of the establishment of state targets. After two years there will be a mid-point
review, at which point the targets could be adjusted for NDOT and Nebraska MPOs
based on collected data.
The Grand Island Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (GIAMPO) adopted to
support the state’s infrastructure condition targets for the 4-year period of 2018 to
2021.
GIAMPO staff recommends to support the NDOT targets for infrastructure condition
performance measures for the 4-year period of 2022 to 2025 (see attached NDOT
Infrastructure Condition Performance Measures) as the most prudent and feasible
alternative. The core reasons to not establishing regional targets include the
following:
For the 4-year period of 2018 to 2021, Nebraska’s actual performances met
the 4-year targets for the six performance measures.
The Interstate and Non-Interstate NHS routes in the GIAMPO metropolitan
planning area are State NHS routes.
The statewide 2022 baselines for the performance measures (pavement
condition) meet the 2-year and 4-year targets for the 4-year period of 2022 to
2025. The baselines are the following:
o 77.5% of pavements of the Interstate System in Good condition
o 0.1% of pavements of the Interstate System in Poor condition
o 56.0% of pavements of the Non-Interstate NHS in Good condition
o 2.3% of pavements of the Non-Interstate NHS in Poor condition
The State is the owner of the NHS bridges in the GIAMPO region.

% of non-Interstate NHS pavements in Good condition
% of non-Interstate NHS pavements in Poor condition
Target Setting
State DOTs:
•Must establish targets, regardless of
ownership, for the full extent of the
Interstate and non-Interstate NHS.
•Must establish statewide 2-and 4-year
targets for the non-Interstate NHS and
4-year targets for the Interstate by May
20, 2018, and report by October 1,
2018.
•May adjust targets at the Mid
Performance Period Progress Report
(October 1, 2020).
Metropolitan Planning Organizations
(MPOs):
•Support the relevant State DOT(s) 4-
year target or establish their own by
180 days after the State DOT(s) target
is established.
Penalty Provisions
If FHWA determines the State DOT’s
Interstate pavement condition falls
below the minimum level for the most
recent year, the State DOT must obligate
a portion of National Highway
Performance Program (NHPP) and
transfer a portion of Surface
Transportation Program (STP) funds to
address Interstate pavement condition.
About Condition
•Good condition: Suggests no
major investment is needed.
•Poor condition: Suggests major
reconstruction investment is
needed.
Final Rulemaking
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) published in the Federal Register (82 FR
5886) a final rule establishing performance measures for State Departments of
Transportation (DOTs) to use in managing pavement and bridge performance on the
National Highway System (NHS). The National Performance Management Measures;
Assessing Pavement Condition for the National Highway Performance Program and
Bridge Condition for the National Highway Performance Program Final Rule addresses
requirements established by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act
(MAP-21) and reflects passage of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST)
Act. The rule is effective May 20, 2017.
Note - The above dates in 2018 and

Bridge
Performance Measures
Performance Measures
% of NHS bridges by deck area classified as in Good condition
% of NHS bridges by deck area classified as in Poor condition
Condition-Based Performance Measures
•Measures are based on deck area.
•The classification is based on National
Bridge Inventory (NBI) condition ratings
for item 58 -Deck, 59 -Superstructure,
60 -Substructure, and 62 -Culvert.
•Condition is determined by the lowest
rating of deck, superstructure,
substructure, or culvert. If the lowest
rating is greater than or equal to 7, the
bridge is classified as good; if is less
than or equal to 4, the classification is
poor. (Bridges rated below 7 but above
4 will be classified as fair; there is no
related performance measure.)
•Deck area is computed using NBI item
49 -Structure Length, and 52 -Deck
Width or 32 -Approach Roadway Width
(for some culverts).
Target Setting
State DOTs:
•Must establish targets for all
bridges carrying the NHS, which
includes on-and off-ramps
connected to the NHS within a
State, and bridges carrying the NHS
that cross a State border,
regardless of ownership.
•Must establish statewide 2-and 4-
year targets by May 20, 2018, and
report targets by October 1, 2018,
in the Baseline Performance Period
Report.
•May adjust 4-year targets at the
Mid Performance Period Progress
Report (October 1, 2020).
Metropolitan Planning Organizations
(MPOs):
•Support the relevant State DOT(s)
4-year target or establish their own
by 180 days after the State DOT(s)
target is established.

ISSUE
VOTE: MPO Targets for System Operations Performance Measures
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration requires State Department of Transportations
(DOTs) and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to adopt targets for three
performance measures every four years relating to system operations performance.
Two of the three performance measures are for National Highway System (NHS)
Travel Time Reliability, and one performance is for Freight Reliability (see attached
fact sheets). State DOTs were required to establish performance targets for these
measures by December 16, 2022. MPOs have the option of supporting the statewide
targets, or establishing their own regional targets within 180 days of the
establishment of state targets. After two years there will be a mid-point review, at
which point the targets could be adjusted for NDOT and Nebraska MPOs based on
collected data.
The Grand Island Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (GIAMPO) approved to
support the state’s system operations performance targets for the 4-year period of
2018 to 2021.
GIAMPO staff recommends to support the NDOT targets for system operations
performance measures for the 4-year period of 2022 to 2025 (see attached NDOT
System Operations Performance Measures) as the most prudent and feasible
alternative. The core reasons to not establishing regional targets include the
following:
For the 4-year period of 2018 to 2021, Nebraska’s actual performances met
the adjusted 4-year targets for the three performance measures.
GIAMPO region outperformed the State on all performance measures for the
4-year period of 2018 to 2021.
The Interstate and Non-Interstate NHS routes in the GIAMPO metropolitan
planning area are State NHS routes.
The statewide 2022 baselines for the performance measures meet the 2-year
and 4-year targets for the 4-year period of 2022 to 2025. The baselines are the
following:
o 98.8% of the person-miles traveled on the Interstate that are reliable
o 96.2% of the person-miles traveled on the Non-Interstate NHS that are
reliable
o 1.14 for the Truck Travel Time Reliability (TTTR) Index

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
The Federal Highway Administration
(FHWA) has finalized six interrelated
performance rulemakings to implement
the TPM framework established by the
Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st
Century Act (MAP-21) and the Fixing
America’s Surface Transportation (FAST)
Act.
Collectively, the rules address
challenges facing the U.S.
transportation system, including:
•improving safety
•maintaining infrastructure condition
•reducing traffic congestion
•improving efficiency of the system
and freight movement
•protecting the environment and
•reducing delays in project delivery.
The rules establish national
performance measures; State
Departments of Transportation (DOTs)
and metropolitan planning
organizations (MPOs) will
establish targets for applicable
measures. New and existing
plans will document the
strategies and investments used
to achieve the targets; progress
toward the targets will be
reported through new and
existing mechanisms.

Grand Island Regular Session - 2/9/2023 Page 26 / 38
NHS Travel Time Reliability Measures
WHAT: Measurement of travel time reliability on the Interstate and non-
Interstate National Highway System (NHS). Read the final rule in the Federal
Register [82 FR 5970 (January 18, 2017)].
WHO:State DOTs, as well as MPOs with Interstate and/or non-Interstate NHS
within their metropolitan planning area.
WHY: Through MAP-21, Congress required FHWA to establish measures to
assess performance in 12 areas, including performance on the Interstate and
non-Interstate NHS. [See 23 CFR 490.507(a)]
WHEN:Implementation differs for the Interstate and non-Interstate NHS
measures for the first performance period. State DOTs must establish 2-and 4-
year targets for the Interstate, but only a 4-year target for the non-Interstate
NHS, by May 20, 2018. Those targets will be reported in the State’s baseline
performance period report due by October 1, 2018. The State DOTs have the
option to adjust 4-year targets in their mid performance period progress report,
due October 1, 2020. For the first performance period only, there is no
requirement for States to report baseline condition/performance or 2-year
targets for the non-Interstate NHS before the mid performance period progress
report. This will allow State DOTs to consider more complete data. The process
will align for both Interstate and non-Interstate measures with the beginning of
the second performance period on January 1, 2022.
MPOs must either support the State target or establish their own quantifiable 4-
year targets within 180 days of the State target establishment.
HOW: Level of Travel Time Reliability (LOTTR) is defined as the ratio of the
longer travel times (80th percentile) to a “normal” travel time (50th percentile),
using data from FHWA’s National Performance Management Research Data Set
(NPMRDS) or equivalent. Data are collected in 15-minute segments during all
time periods between 6 a.m. and 8 p.m. local time. The measures are the
percent of person-miles traveled on the relevant portion of the NHS that are
reliable. Person-miles take into account the users of the NHS. Data to reflect the
users can include bus, auto, and truck occupancy levels.
Note: The FHWA is preparing guidance on how all rules should be implemented.
Note - The above dates in 2018 and 2020 relate
to the first performance period of 2018 to 2021.
Grand Island Regular Session - 2/9/2023 Page 27 / 38
Freight Reliability Measure
WHAT: Measurement of travel time reliability on the Interstate System
(Truck Travel Time Reliability (TTTR) Index). Read the final rule in the Federal
Register [82 FR 5970 (January 18, 2017)].
WHO: State DOTs and MPOs.
WHY: Through MAP-21, Congress required FHWA to establish measures to
assess performance in 12 areas, including freight movement on the Interstate.
The measure considers factors that are unique to this industry, such as the use of
the system during all hours of the day and the need to consider more extreme
impacts to the system in planning for on-time arrivals. [23 CFR 490.607]
WHEN: State DOTs must establish 2-and 4-year targets by May 20, 2018.
Those targets will be reported in the State’s baseline performance period report
due by October 1, 2018. The State DOTs have the option to adjust 4-year targets
in their mid performance period progress report, due October 1, 2020.
MPOs must either support the State target or establish their own quantifiable 4-
year targets within 180 days of the State target establishment.
HOW: Freight movement will be assessed by the TTTR Index. Reporting is
divided into five periods: morning peak (6-10 a.m.), midday (10 a.m.-4 p.m.) and
afternoon peak (4-8 p.m.) Mondays through Fridays; weekends (6 a.m.-8 p.m.);
and overnights for all days (8 p.m.-6 a.m.). The TTTR ratio will be generated by
dividing the 95th percentile time by the normal time (50th percentile) for each
segment. The TTTR Index will be generated by multiplying each segment’s largest
ratio of the five periods by its length, then dividing the sum of all length-weighted
segments by the total length of Interstate.
State DOTs and MPOs will have the data they need in FHWA’s National
Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS) as data set includes
truck travel times for the full Interstate System. State DOTs and MPOs may use an
equivalent data set if they prefer.
Note: The FHWA is preparing guidance on how all rules should be implemented.
Note - The above dates in 2018 and 2020 relate
to the first performance period of 2018 to 2021.

REPORT: Transit Development Plan
BACKGROUND
The City of Grand Island (GI) is leading the development of the GI Transit
Development Plan (TDP) initiative, known as GO GI Transit, in coordination with
GIAMPO. This study will help the City of Grand Island plan for the future of public
transit in the Grand Island area. The TDP process began in October 2021 and is
scheduled to be completed in February 2023.
The TDP process began first with data collection on Grand Island’s transit system,
CRANE, to evaluate the existing system and establish the baseline conditions for use
in later portions of the TDP. The data collected was used to establish a variety of
scenarios for potential future use. The scenarios were compared to the baseline
scenario to evaluate their potential effectiveness. The final step in the TDP process
was development of an implementation plan for the preferred scenario and a financial
analysis of this scenario to capture both funded and unmet needs. Throughout the
TDP planning process, three phases of public and stakeholder outreach were
conducted to collect stakeholder and public feedback and guide the TDP vision. Each
phase of engagement targeted different segments including existing riders, potential
riders, and key area stakeholders.
In early December 2022, the consultant ((HDR Inc.) for GO GI Transit completed a
Draft Transit Development Plan. This document is a planning and development
guidance document encompassing the years 2023 through 2045. The year 2045 is
used to align the goals of this TDP with the goals and objectives presented in the
GIAMPO 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). The TDP addresses transit
and mobility needs, cost and revenue projections, community transit goals and
objectives, and potential future scenarios. The plan develops 10-year and 20-year
elements that fall within that 2045-time horizon.
GIAMPO staff will provide an update on the Transit Development Plan (GO GI
Transit) at the February 9 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting. This update
will relate to the public comment period of the Draft Transit Development Plan.
POLICY CONSIDERATIONS/DISCUSSION
The GIAMPO Public Participation Plan specifies that other reports/documents will
have a public comment period of least 15 days prior to approval by the Policy Board.
The Draft Transit Development Plan was made available for a 30-day public
comment period from December 14, 2022 to January 16, 2023. Four comments were
received.

REPORT: Comprehensive Plan Update
BACKGROUND
The last significant update to the Hall County and Grand Island Comprehensive Plans
was completed in 2004. Hall County Regional Planning Commission staff has
secured funding from the City of Grand Island and Hall County to update the plans
and regulations for these entities during the 2022, 2023 and 2024 fiscal years. It is
expected that the process will take between 18 and 24 months from the time it
begins.
In January 2022, the Hall County Regional Planning Commission released a Request
for Qualifications (RFQ) to retain a consultant firm to provide professional services for
Comprehensive Plan and Regulation Update for the City of Grand Island and Hall
County. A Notice to Proceed was issued to Marvin Planning Consultants in April
2022. A kickoff meeting was held in June 2022 and a series of open house meetings
were held on October 25-27, 2022. An open house meeting was held on January 31,
2023.
The Comprehensive Plan is a blue print for growth in the community and is required if
a community wishes to use zoning and subdivision regulations to impact how and
where that development occurs. The 2004 plans were looking at a 20-year time
frame, and this time horizon is nearing the end.
Hall County Regional Planning Commission staff will provide an update on the
Comprehensive Plan Update at the February 9 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)
meeting.

REPORT: State Carbon Reduction Strategy
BACKGROUND
In November 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) (also known as
the “Bipartisan Infrastructure Law”), was signed into law, which includes the Carbon
Reduction Program (CRP). The purpose of the CRP is to provide federal funds for
projects designed to reduce transportation emissions, defined carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions from on-road highway sources.
Nebraska expects to receive nearly $48 million over five years under the CRP. The
Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) is required to allocate 65% of these
funds to urbanized areas over 200K population, urbanized areas between 50K and
200K population, urban areas between 5K to 49,999K population, and areas less
than 5K population) in accordance with their relative share of the state population.
NDOT has flexibility to allocate the remaining 35% in any area of the state.
The CRP requires each state, in consultation with its respective metropolitan planning
organizations (MPOs), to develop a Carbon Reduction Strategy that supports efforts
to reduce transportation emissions, identifies projects and strategies that will reduce
transportation emissions, and is appropriate to the population and context of the
state.
The Carbon Reduction Strategy is due to USDOT by November 15, 2023.
NDOT staff will provide an update on the State Carbon Reduction Strategy at the
February 9 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting.

REPORT: Public Participation Plan Update
BACKGROUND
In accordance 23 CFR 450.316, a metropolitan planning organization (MPO) is
required to have a Public Participation Plan that defines a process for providing with
reasonable opportunities to be involved in the metropolitan transportation planning
process. The current, and first, Public Participation Plan for the Grand Island Area
Metropolitan Planning Organization (GIAMPO) was adopted by the Policy Board in
November 2015, and includes an amendment which was approved in February 2017.
The GIAMPO Public Participation Plan indicates that an update of the Public
Participation occurs at least every five years, prior to an update of the Long Range
Transportation Plan (LRTP). Journey 2040 is GIAMPO’s first LRTP, which was
adopted by the Policy Board in April 2016. In February 2021, GIAMPO completed an
LRTP update with the adoption of the 2045 LRTP. Since the current Public
Participation Plan was adopted over five years ago and the process for the next
LRTP will begin sometime in 2024, GIAMPO staff began the process to update the
Public Participation Plan in December 2022.
GIAMPO staff will provide an update on the Public Participation Plan Update at the
February 9 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meeting.
