1. CALL TO ORDER; RECOGNIZE ALTERNATES; CONSIDER APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES
Neumann called the meeting to order at 10:33 AM. Alternates were as follows: Dan Scott for Brian
Boelk of Iowa City, Sarah Okerlund for Rick Fosse of Iowa City, and AI Miller for Greg Parker of
Johnson County. It was moved by Holderness and seconded by Knoche to approve the meeting
minutes of May 15, 2007. The motion carried unanimously.
2. PUBLIC DISCUSSION OF ANY ITEM NOT ON THE AGENDA
There was no public discussion.
3. CONSIDER A RECOMMENDATION ON THE FORMULA USED TO DISTRIBUTE FEDERAL
TRANSIT ADMINISTRATION SECTION 5307 FUNDS TO CORALVILLE TRANSIT. IOWA CITY
TRANSIT AND UNIVERSITY OF IOWA CAMBUS
Neumann outlined the formula used to calculate locally determined income (LDI) in FY07. Neumann
noted that different reporting figures were used in the calculation for the LDI in FY07 but would not be
used in FY08 calculations. Wheatley asked how the FY07 figures compared with the figures from
FY06. Neumann stated that the numbers can not be compared because different funding was
available in FY07 that was not available in FY06. It was moved by Fowler and seconded by
McClatchey to not recommend adjusting the FY08 figures to account for the FY07 calculation. The
motion carried unanimously.
Neumann asked the TT AC to consider a recommendation to the Board for the formation of a staff
committee that would review what figures are being submitted for the quarterly DNR reports. The
TTAC agreed to make this recommendation to the Board at their September 19th meeting.
Neumann outlined the current formula used to distribute 5307 funds as well as the formula without
fare revenue as a separate category. Dave Ricketts from the University of Iowa presented his
argument asking that the original formula, not using fare revenue as a separate category, be used to
distribute funds. Ricketts noted that some funding is only available to the transit agencies because of
the University's high ridership numbers. Rickets stated that the University is working to deter
JCCOG Transportation Technical Advisory Committee
September 11, 2007

individuals from driving private vehicles to campus, and that this benefits both Iowa City and
Coralville.
Neumann noted that using the formula without fare revenue as a separate category would benefit the
University by $132,583 in FY08 and take away $75,314 from Iowa City Transit, and $57,269 from
Coralville Transit. Fowler stated that the University benefits from the discounted bus passes given to
them from both Iowa City and Coralville Transit. Brase noted that CAMBUS benefits by using
student labor. Hayworth asked if there are other similar arrangements between University agencies
and municipalities. Ricketts stated that that the arrangement CAMBUS has with Iowa City and
Coralville is unique. Brase stated he believes that more cooperation between the systems is needed
for paratransit. Ricketts agreed. Logsden noted that he believes the student labor available to the
University transit system creates an un-level playing field between the agencies. Logsden stated that
CAMBUS has lost ridership while Iowa City and Coralville Transit systems have increased ridership.
Logsden further stated that using the current formula offers a more level playing field between the
agencies.
Robrock agreed with the statements Logsden made and added that CAMBUS does not serve as
much of the general population for which she feels the funds are intended.
MOTIONS
McClatchey moved to recommend changing the formula back to the original formula thereby
eliminating fair revenue as a separate category. Wheatley seconded for discussion. Logsden
reiterated that the current formula works best to level the playing field between the agencies.
Those voting IN FAVOR were: McClatchy, Wilson, and Hollins. The motion failed on a vote of 3-14.
Wilson moved to form a committee to decide what formula should be used in the future. McClatchey
seconded. Hayworth, Dahms, and Robrock all stated that a committee would not be needed as the
Technical Advisory Committee can serve that purpose.
Those voting IN FAVOR were: Wheatley, McClatchey, Wilson, and Hollins. The motion failed on a
vote of 4-13.
Logsden moved to recommend continuing to use the current formula using fare revenue as a
separate category. Knoche seconded.
Those voting IN FAVOR were: Fowler, Robrock, Holderness, Hayworth, Oils, Dahms, Wheatley,
Miller, Knoche, Logsden, Brase, Scott, and Okerlund. The motion carried on a vote of 13-4.
Ricketts left at 11 :40
4. UPDATE ON FY07 BUS AND BUS FACILITIES DISCRETIONARY FUNDING (FTA)
Neumann noted that CAMBUS, Iowa City Transit, and Coralville Transit applied for grant money
through a pot made available through the Federal Transit Administration. Neumann stated that all of
the funding has been given to the five most congested cities in the U.S. Neumann asked the
committee if they would like to recommend sending letters to the FT A requesting that the money not
be given to the five cities and be spread out more equitably amongst cities.
Logsden moved that staff write letters for the JCCOG chair to sign and send to the FTA regarding the
disapproval of how grant money was distributed. McClatchey seconded. The motion carried
unanimously.

5. DISCUSSION OF SURFACE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM (STP) AND TRANSPORTATION
ENHANCEMENT (TE) JCCOG FUNDING ALLOCATION PROCESS
Yapp outlined the STP and TE funding allocation process as well as the timeline for the application
deadlines. Yapp stated JCCOG will have approximately $2,000,000 in Surface Transportation
Program funds and $190,000 in Transportation Enhancement funds for FY09-10. Yapp referred to
the application packets distributed to TTAC members. Applications will be due on October 11,2007.
6. REPORT ON JCCOG TRAIL COUNTS
Ralston stated that JCCOG has been actively collecting trail counts over the course of the summer
and indicated that the counts are now being taken with an infrared counter that cannot differentiate
between bicycles and pedestrians. Ralston referred to a map showing average daily trail counts and
count locations. Ralston asked the committee to contact him if there were any locations that they
would like to add to the list.
7. UPDATE ON TRAFFIC STUDY FOR NORTH DUBUQUE STREET AND NORTH LIBERTY ROAD
Yapp outlined the plan for the upcoming traffic study in the North Dubuque Street corridor. Yapp
stated that the traffic study would be similar to other traffic studies that JCCOG performs. Yapp noted
that several factors would be taken into account, including traffic speed and volume, sight distance,
access points, and pedestrian facilities.
8 UPDATE ON RECENT ACTIVITIES
Ralston updated the committee on a Safe Routes to Schools application that JCCOG is working on at
the request of the Clear Creek - Amana School District. Ralston also updated the committee on
ridesharing/carpooling programs that the University of Iowa has available to staff and students as well
as several other web-based ridesharing programs that are available to municipalities.
9. OTHER BUSINESS

Re: Agenda Item NO.3: Consider a recommendation to the JCCOG Urbanized Area Policy Board
regarding apportionment of Federal Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds for FY2009-10
Iowa DOT gave JCCOG a funding target of $2,067,000 in Surface Transportation Program funds for FY2009-10
to be distributed in the Iowa City Urbanized Area. Four communities submitted a total of eleven applications to
JCCOG totaling $12,286,800. Enclosed you will find a summary of each project and copies of the applications.
The project scores based on the scoring criteria adopted by the JCCOG Board are enclosed. The TTAC may,
by motion, amend any of the project scores before they are forwarded to the JCCOG Board. The projects need
not be recommended for funding according to the project's score; the scoring criteria are meant to be one piece
of information for consideration in your deliberations.
At your November 15 meeting, please consider making a recommendation to the JCCOG Board on the
apportionment of STP funds. As you discuss the projects to recommend for funding, consider the project score,
any public input received, and ultimately the merits of each project. The funds cannot be apportioned according
to the population of the JCCOG municipalities.
STP Scoring Comments
JCCOG staff applied the approved scoring system (see attached) to rank the STP applications. While some
criteria are objective assessments, others may be interpreted differently by different people. The following
comments clarify how staff interpreted the criteria:
· Criterion 1 - Staff classified new projects as reconstruction projects and awarded 5 points, which
reflects prior precedent and the Transportation Enhancement scoring system.
· Criterion 2 - Projects not located at accident prone locations received three points if bicycle and/or
pedestrian facilities are planned. The JCCOG Traffic Collision Analysis (2006) identifies the top 25
high accident intersections and top 10 highest mid-block accident locations.
· Criterion 3 - All proposed projects were consistent with the communities' comprehensive plans.
· Criterion 4 - Projects received scores based upon the degree to which they provided the approved
amenities.
· Criterion 5.,... Scores are based on existing and forecasted traffic volumes and capacity detailed in the
JCCOG 2007-2035 Long Range Multi-Modal Transportation Plan for the Iowa City Urbanized Area
(2007).
· Criterion 6 - Projects that show cooperation between jurisdictions received additional points.
Public Comments Received
No public comment submitted to JCCOG to-date.

City of Tiffin
Ireland Avenue Extension Project
During the Surface Transportation Program of 2005 the City of Tiffin
I reland Avenue Extension project was discussed by both the IT AC and
the UPBC. Results of that meeting included the overall consensus that
the Ireland Avenue Extension Project was a project that affected not
only local traffic but regional traffic as well especially during emergency
routing for Interstate 80. The project was not funded during the last
three funded in full during the last three funding cycles. This project is of
the highest importance to the City of Tiffin, and also to the regional
JCCOG area. Fund this project to fulfill and provide a safe emergency
route for interstate traffic and the citizens that live in this locale.

City of University Heights, Iowa
Surface Transportation Program (STP) Project Application
October 2007

1. Your name, phone number, and JCCOG affiliation:
Erling Anderson (354-7897); City of University Heights
2. Dollar amount of federal funds requested (required minimum 20% local match), and
total project cost:
Federal Funds Requested: $396,800.00
Local Match: $ 99.200.00
Total Project Cost:
$496,000.00
3. Brief description of the proposed project. Attach a location map/visual description of
the project:
The City of University Heights, proposes to further the JCCOG Long Range
Multi-Modal Transportation Plan by providing an effective connection
between two points within the trails and wide sidewalk network. This
project will replace an existing 4-foot sidewalk with an 8-foot "wide
. . sidewalk" on the north side of Melrose Avenue, connecting an existing wide
sidewalk at the east city limit of University Heights to within 200-feet of an
existing trail at the Finkbine Golf Course entrance drive just beyond the west
city limit., The total project length is approximately 3,000 linear feet.
The proposed project provides an improved bicycle and pedestrian
connection between destination points (City of Iowa City and University of
Iowa) to the east and west of University Heights, as well as destination points
within University Heights, such as the Athletic Club, St. Andrews Church,
Taste on Melrose, City Hall, and the Hedlund Dental Office. In particular,
there are numerous University of Iowa facilities developing west of the City,
including Finkbine Golf Course, the Commuter Parking Lot, Student
Housing, Recreation Fields, and numerous athletic practice and competition
sites.
The existing Melrose A venue right-of-way is 80-feet wide from the west city
limit to Sunset Street. This provides enough width to place the wide sidewalk
and maintain adequate clear widths, and requires only minor modifications
to a few entrance drive aprons.
The existing Melrose Avenue right-of-way is 60-feet wide from Sunset Street
to the east city limit. There are several residential driveways on the north
side with steep grades. Overhead utility pole facilities are located on the
south side of the street. To accommodate appropriate clearances, and
maintain the existing driveway apron grades for residential properties along
the route, the north curb of Melrose Avenue would need to be moved south
approximately 4-feet. The resulting street width would be 33-feet. The
attached "sections" show that the existing functionality of the roadway could
be maintained. Design exceptions may be necessary for lane width and
path/roadway separation in some locations.
Bicycle parking is proposed to be located adjacent to this new walk near the
building housing the restaurant, dentist's office, and City Hall. This is the
only section of the City currently zoned for Business. To maintain
appropriate clear width distances along the walk in this area, the north curb
would move south by 4-feet, and the existing trees and walkway lighting in
this area are proposed to be removed ,and replaced. It is proposed to modify
the pavement markings in this section to maintain the on-street parking and
two lanes of east-west traffic.
4. List all modes of transportation impacted by the proposed project:
Primary:
Secondary:
Pedestrian, Bicycle
Vehicle
(potential to encourage fewer vehicle trips in favor of walking
or bicycling; provide safer and/or more desirable route)
5. How does the project further the goals and/or policies of your community's
Comprehensive Plan?
On page 27 of the Comprehensive Plan, the "Streets and Transportation"
section includes a goal to "enhance pedestrian and bicycle access for
University Heights residents." In addition, the potential to be a part of the
growing network of trails and wide sidewalks within Johnson County is
identified as follows:
"At present, University Heights is not directly linked to trail systems within
Johnson County. Formal connecting trails or widened sidewalks would allow
University Heights residents better access to recreational opportunities in
Iowa City, Coralville, and the University of Iowa campus. Given the limited
public open space in the community such linkages could be valuable."
This project would provide a significant link in the wide sidewalk network
currently in place along Melrose Avenue by narrowing the gap to a
connection with existing wide sidewalks on Mormon Trek, and existing trails
along Clear Creek, and along Camp Cardinal Boulevard.
6. Will the proposed project involve establishment of a new facility, or improve an
existing facility that is within five years of the end of its useful life?
The proposed project will replace the existing 4-foot walk with an 8-foot
walk. The existing walk panels are monitored for repair needs on an
individual basis. As a whole, the sidewalk along the north side of Melrose
Avenue would still be in use within five years.
7. How will the project impact the flow of all modes oftraffic?
The north side of Melrose Avenue is an existing urban roadway. The
proposed project would encounter numerous driveways (primarily
residential), and cross three intersections: Birkdale Court, Sunset Street, and
the Koser/Golfview intersection. The majority of overhead utility facilities
are located on the opposite side of the road (south side). The distance
between the edge of the existing 4-foot walk and the back of curb varies along
the project. There are a few properties with existing retaining walls abutting
the edge of the right-of-way.

Re: Agenda Item NO.4: Consider a recommendation to the JCCOG Urbanized Area Policy Board
regarding apportionment of Transportation Enhancement (TE) JCCOG funds for FY2009-1 0
Iowa DOT gave JCCOG a funding target of $190,870 in Transportation Enhancement funds for FY2009-10 to
be apportioned in the Iowa City Urbanized Area. Four communities submitted a total of six applications to
JCCOG totaling $2,555,800. Enclosed you will find a summary of each project and copies of the applications.
At their October 30 meeting, the JCCOG Regional Trails and Bicycling Committee (RTBC) recommended,
by a vote of 5 to 6, that City of Tiffin receive $89,000 in TE funds for the East Tiffin Trail and the
remaining $101,870 TE funds be awarded to City of Coralville for the First Ave. wide-sidewalk project
north of County Club Drive. A summary of the RTBC discussion is attached.
The project scores based on the scoring criteria adopted by the JCCOG Board are enclosed. The ran kings were
discussed, but not modified, by the RTBC. The nAC may, by motion, amend any of the project scores before
they are forwarded to the JCCOG Board. The projects need not be recommended for funding according to their
scores; the scoring criteria are meant to be one piece of information for consideration in your deliberations.
At your November 15 meeting, please consider making a recommendation to the JCCOG Board on the
apportionment of TE funds. As you discuss the projects to recommend for funding, consider the project score,
the RTBC recommendation, any public input received, and ultimately the merits of each project. The funds
cannot be apportioned according to the population of the JCCOG municipalities.
TE Scoring Comments
JCCOG staff applied the approved scoring system (see attached) to rank the STP applications. While some
criteria are objective assessments, others are somewhat vague. The following comments clarify how staff
interpreted the criteria:
· Criterion 1 - New projects and total reconstruction of existing facilities were awarded five points,
while significant rehabilitation of projects received three points.
· Criterion 2 - Projects not located at accident prone locations received three points if bicycle and/or
pedestrian facilities are planned. The JCCOG Traffic Collision Analysis (2006) identifies the top 25
high accident intersections and top 10 highest mid-block accident locations.
· Criterion 3 - Projects that will link to major residential, commercial, or employment areas received
five points.
· Criterion 4 - Projects received five points for extending pedestrian and/or bicycle facilities, or if they
are part of the JCCOG Long Range Plan or Long Range Wide Sidewalks Plan.
Public Comments Received
The enclosed memo from Kent Ralston summarizes the recommendations of the Regional Trails and Bicycling
Committee.

Re:
Agenda Item #4 Transportation Enhancement funding recommendation
At the October 30, 2007 JCCOG Regional Trails and Bicycling Committee meeting the
committee discussed applications received for FY09-10 JCCOG Transportation Enhancement
(TE) Program funds. JCCOG received applications requesting $2,258,200 in TE funding, and
has $190,870 available for allocation. Although the RTBC agreed that all of the applications
received were for desirable projects, the impetus for the RTBC recommendation is to provide
full funding to at least one project ensuring that said project can be completed in a timely
fashion. The RTBC recommends:
Recommended Allocation:
City of Tiffin $89,000
(100% of requested funds)
City of Coralville $101,870
(54% of requested funds)
Project Description:
East Tiffin Trail; 8' wide trail extension from
Jasper Ave to 1-380
8' wide trail extension on the west side of 1 sl Ave
from Country Club Dr. to Oakdale Blvd.
Please bring any questions you have to the November 15th meeting.

Transportation Enhancement Project Application - required information
The following information about your Transportation Enhancement project
proposal will be provided to the JCCOG Transportation Technical Advisory
Committee and Urbanized Area Policy Board for evaluation. JCCOG staff may
contact you if additional information is required. You will have the opportunity to
explain the project at a meeting of the JCCOG Transportation Technica/ Advisory
Committee.
1 . Your name, phone number, and JCCOG affiliation:
Dan Holderness, Coralville City Engineer, phone # - 248.1720.
2. Dollar amount of federal funds requested (required minimum 20% local
match), and total project cost
Federal funds request = $190,000. Estimated project cost is $420,000.
3. Brief description of the proposed project. Attach a location map/visual
description of the project. Additional visual aids may be attached.
This project will involve the construction of a 8 foot wide PCC
pedestrian/bike trail on the west side of 1 st Ave. from Country Club Drive
north to Oakdale Blvd. This project is an extension of our existing 1 st
Ave. Trail system and will complete the connection between Coralville
(including connections to the UI trail system and downtown Iowa City) and
the Oakdale Blvd. Trail which connects to Johnson County's Dubuque St.
Trail which then connects to the Coralville Reservoir. This connection will
also benefit citizens in northern Coralville as well as the county by
providing access to the Iowa River Landing and other 1st Ave. & Hwy 6
locations. We have received numerous requests for the construction of
this specific project as many citizens bike/run/walk in this area and
currently are required to use 1st Ave., particularly the bridge over Muddy
Creek, which was does not provide safe accomodations for these
activities.
4. List all modes of transportation impacted by the proposed project.
Vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists will be positively impacted by the
construction of a pedestrian/bike trail on a parallel but separate alignment
from the street.
5. If applicable, describe the terrain where the proposed project is located.
The trail will be constructed parallel to and at a similiar 7% grade as 1 st
Ave. The trail will also cross Muddy Creek on a separate bridge.
6. Will the proposed project involve establishment of a new right-of-way?
This project will be constructed within the existing 1 st Ave. right-of-way.

2. Dollar amount of federal funds requested (required minimum 20% local match), and
total project cost:
Federal Funds Requested: $396,800.00
Local Match: $ 99,200.00
Total Project Cost:
$496,000.00
3. Brief description of the proposed project. Attach a location map/visual description of
the project:
The City of University Heights, proposes to further the JCCOG Long Range
Multi-Modal Transportation Plan by providing an effective connection
between two points within the trails and wide sidewalk network. This
project will replace an existing 4-foot sidewalk with an 8-foot "wide
sidewalk" on the north side of Melrose Avenue, connecting an existing wide
sidewalk at the east city limit of University Heights to within 200-feet of an
existing trail at the Finkbine Golf Course entrance drive just beyond the west
city limit. The total project length is approximately 3,000 linear feet.
The proposed project provides an improved bicycle and pedestrian
connection between destination points (City of Iowa City and University of
Iowa) to the east and west of University Heights, as well as destination points
within University Heights, such as the Athletic Club, St. Andrews Church,
Taste on Melrose, City Hall, and the Hedlund Dental Office. In particular,
there are numerous University of Iowa facilities developing west of the City,
including Finkbine Golf Course, the Commuter Parking Lot, Student
Housing, Recreation Fields, and numerous athletic practice and competition
sites.
The existing Melrose Avenue right-of-way is 80-feet wide from the west city
limit to Sunset Street. This provides enough width to place the wide sidewalk
and maintain adequate clear widths, and requires only minor modifications
to a few entrance drive aprons.
The existing Melrose A venue right-of-way is 60-feet wide from Sunset Street
to the east city limit. There are several residential driveways on the north
, .
side with steep grades. Overhead utility pole facilities are located on the
south side of the street. To accommodate appropriate clearances, and
maintain the existing driveway apron grades for residential properties along
the route, the north curb of Melrose Avenue would need to be moved south
approximately 4-feet. The resulting street width would be 33-feet. The
attached "sections" show that the existing functionality of the roadway could
be maintained. Design exceptions may be necessary for lane width and
path/roadway separation in some locations.
Bicycle parking is proposed to be located adjacent to this new walk near the
building housing the restaurant, dentist's office, and City Hall. This is the
only section of the City currently zoned for Business. To maintain
appropriate clear width distances along the walk in this area, the north curb
would move south by 4-feet, and the existing trees and walkway lighting in
this area are proposed to be removed and replaced. It is proposed to modify
the pavement markings in this section to maintain the on-street parking and
two lanes of east-west traffic.
4. List all modes of transportation impacted by the proposed project:
Primary:
Secondary:
Pedestrian, Bicycle
Vehicle
(potential to encourage fewer vehicle trips in favor of walking
or bicycling; provider safer and/or more desirable route)
5. If applicable, describe the terrain where the proposed project is located:
The north side of Melrose Avenue is an existing urban roadway. The
proposed project would encounter numerous driveways (primarily
residential), and cross three intersections: Birkdale Court, Sunset Street, and
the Koser/Golfview intersection. The majority of overhead utility facilities
are located on the opposite side of the road (south side). The distance
between the edge of the existing 4-foot walk and the back of curb varies along
the project. There are a few properties with existing retaining walls abutting
the edge of the right-of-way.
6. Will the proposed project involve establishment of a new right-of-way?
No.

Re: Agenda item 5: JCCOG Board - requested report on the Des Moines Regional Transit
Authority and CyRide
At the September 19, 2007 JCCOG Board meeting, the Board requested that staff gather
information regarding the consolidated transit systems of Des Moines. Area Regional Transit
(DART) Authority and CyRide (Ames). The following is a short summary of the two systems.
Additional information for both systems is attached.
DART
The Des Moines Area Regional Transit (DART) Authority was created in 2006. This agency is a
joint effort between the Des Moines Metro Transit Agency (MT A) and the Rural Transit Agency
(RTA). This joint effort took two agreements to complete; one was a 28E agreement with the
MT A and the other was a 28M agreement with the RT A. There are currently 20 jurisdictions
involved with 95% of the costs based on the amount of service a jurisdiction receives and 5%
regionally allocated. The jurisdictions include Des Moines, the municipalities surrounding Des
Moines, and Polk County.
The nine member board is made up of representatives from seven regions (communities) in the
county and two county representatives. DART has 114 buses and 15,000 riders per day. The
total operating budget last year was $13.44 million. Revenues include $8.29 million from
Federal and State sources and farebox revenue. A transit levy makes up the remaining $5.15
million in revenue.
DART services include fixed route and paratransit services, ridesharing, Employer Support
Programs, Opportunities Through Transit program (income eligible), Guaranteed Ride Home
program, and a Bike and Ride (bike racks on buses) program. The attached graphics provided
by DART give a snapshot of DART's funding structure and provision of services.
CyRide
In 1976, the City of Ames started a municipal transit system that served all of Ames and Iowa
State University (ISU). In 1981 the City signed an agreement with ISU and the ISU Student
Government to operate a joint public transit system called CyRide. At that time the City of Ames
paid 37.3% of the transit budget, ISU paid 13.8%, and the ISU Student Government paid 48.9%
(student fees). As interest in the transit service grew, the ISU students wanted more service. In
2002 Cy-Ride implemented a no fare system for students. This no fare system for students is
similar to the Cambus system, but does not include the general public. ISU students must show
their student ID to ride for free. As a result of the no fare system for students, the amount of
funding the ISU Student Government was responsible for increased. As of 2007 the budget
2
included 27% funding from the City of Ames, 12% from ISU, and 61% from the ISU Student
Government. CyRide's current budget is about $4.5 million per year.
CyRide has a six member Board of Trustees, made up of one representative each from the
Ames City Council, a senator from the ISU Student Government, a vice president of ISU, an ISU
Student Government representative who is not a senator, the Ames City Manager, and one
person selected by the Ames Mayor.

Re:
Agenda item 6 Consider recommendation to the JCCOG Board regarding
apportionment of FY08 Federal Transit Administration Section 5307 funds to
Coralville Transit, Iowa City Transit, and University of Iowa Cambus
Iowa DOT has indicated we have a total of $1,569,025 available in FY08 FTA Section 5307
operating assistance. This amount includes $482,431 in Small Transit Intensive Communities
(STIC) funding. The funds are apportioned by JCCOG between Coralville Transit, Iowa City
Transit, and University of Iowa Cambus based on our local formula of 25%
operating/maintenance cost, 25% locally determined income, 25% revenue miles, and 25% fare
revenue. This formula was re-approved at the September 19th Board meeting.
The following tables show the proposed FY08 apportionment, and for comparison, the FY07
multipliers and apportionment. The FY08 Section 5307 funds may be used for transit operating
and/or capital funding. If approved, the Transportation Planning Division will complete and
submit FY08 FT A operating grant applications for each transit system.

Re: Agenda item #7: Update and discussion of the Transportation Investment Moves the
Economy in the 21st Century (TIME-21) Initiative
This information is to keep you up-to-date on the status of transportation funding in Iowa. In
October of this year, a legislative subcommittee began meeting to discuss the TIME-21
Initiative, specifically on options to raise $200 million per year in additional funding for the road
construction fund. The current proposal is to distribute any new funding created under TIME-21
with a formula giving 60% to the State, 20% to the counties and 20% to the cities for road
construction and maintenance purposes. Existing Road Use Tax Fund (RUTF) revenue would
be distributed under the current formula (47.5% State, 8% cities street fund, 20% county farm to
market fund, 24.5% county secondary roads fund).
The legislative subcommittee is discussing various funding options and mechanisms to adjust
revenue streams. These mechanisms include the fuel tax, vehicle and truck registration fees,
driver's license fees and the motor vehicle use tax. Options involving the creation of toll roads
and/or leasing certain public roads do not appear to be gaining traction.
The legislative subcommittee is scheduled to meet again on November 26, and it is hoped they
will reach consensus on a recommendation to the full legislature before they reconvene in
January. Earlier this year, the JCCOG Board sent a general letter of support to area legislators
for the TIME-21 proposal and the need to create additional funds for roadway infrastructure.

Re: Agenda Item NO.8: Discuss requirement for Year-Of-Expenditure cost estimates in the
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)
The purpose of this memo is to notify the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee of new
federal requirements for the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) of the Iowa City
Urbanized Area. When JCCOG develops the FY2009-12 TIP, the following changes will be
included to meet the new guidelines.
In February 2007, the federal government mandated that beginning on, "December 11th, 2007,
revenue and cost estimates that support the metropolitan transportation plan must use an
inflation rate to reflect 'year of expenditure dollars 1. '" This new policy is meant to ensure that
local governments account for inflation and budget sufficient funds for capital projects. The level
of federal funds awarded to a project will not change. If cost estimates do not account for
inflation, the local government will be required to pay the project funding shortfall. When we
develop the FY09-12 JCCOG TIP, we will ask for a year-of-expenditure cost estimate, or
alternatively apply an inflation factor.
Additionally, the metropolitan transportation plan must contain "system-level estimates of costs
and revenue sources2" to adequately maintain and operate Federal-aid highways and public
transportation. According to Iowa DOT staff, this requirement could prove to be burdensome to
local governments; clarification from federal DOT will likely be issued in the coming months.
Please contact me at Kristopher-Ackerson@iowa-city.org or 356-5247 with any questions.

Re: Agenda Item #9: Consider a recommendation to the JCCOG Urbanized Area
Policy Board on a letter of support for future Amtrak service into Johnson County
In discussions with I,owa DOT staff on our passenger rail/ AMTRAK advocacy efforts, it
has been suggested that JCCOG send a letter of support for future AMTRAK service
into Johnson County. This would be part of a planned AMTRAK service line from
Chicago to the Quad Cities, Iowa City/Coralville, and eventually Des Moines. I have
drafted a letter for the TTAC and Urbanized Area Policy Board to consider (attached).
One of the difficulties I had in drafting this letter is that we do not yet have a cost
estimate for capital and operations costs for future AMTRAK service, nor do we have
funding sources identified. Based on past discussions, I do believe we have broad
support for continuing to support and plan for future passenger rail service generally.
Another factor I wanted to keep in front of the passenger rail discussion is the desire for
a 'local' passenger rail system connecting Iowa City, Coralville, North Liberty and Cedar
Rapids. A feasibility study for this system was completed in 2006, and showed that
passenger rail could be established between Iowa City, Coralville and North Liberty with
an approximate $18 million capital investment in track, rolling stock and
stations/platforms. Eventually, this system could be extended to Cedar Rapids.
Please consider a recommendation to the JCCOG Urbanized Area Policy Board on the
attached letter of support for future AMTRAK service into Johnson County.

Letter to Iowa DOT Senior Staff & local state legislators
Re: Passenger Rail
While there are many unanswered questions regarding the capital and operations
costs of AMTRAK service into Iowa, the Johnson County Council of Governments
(JCCOG) is fully supportive of efforts to plan for extending additional AMTRAK
service from Chicago to the Quad Cities, Iowa City and Des Moines. We are aware
that there is a study being completed to quantify capital costs and operations costs
for AMTRAK service on the Iowa Interstate Railroad line. This service would be
consistent with the Midwest Regional Rail Initiative, of which JCCOG has been a past
supporter.
Passenger Rail will be an increasingly important option for our country. Passenger
rail is a viable alternative to highway and air travel for medium range trips between
200-500 miles in distance. AMTRAK ridership has set a new record with 25,847,531
passengers in FY07. Ridership is increasing on Midwest passenger trains also; On
the Chicago-St Louis line for example, ridership is up by 55.8 percent for state-owned
trains, with a total of 477,888 passengers in FY07. Extending service from Chicago
to the Quad Cities, Iowa City and Des Moines will provide a viable transportation
alternative for many business travelers, students and the general public.
JCCOG's interest in passenger rail is not just tied to AMTRAK. In 2006, a passenger
rail feasibility study was completed to identify capital and operating costs for
passenger rail service between Iowa City and Cedar Rapids. With an estimated $18
million capital investment in track, equipment and stations passenger rail service
could start between Iowa City, Coralville and North Liberty. This service would serve
these cities and the University of Iowa by reducing congestion, providing an
alternative transportation mode for commuters as well as visitors, fostering efficient
economic development around stations, and potentially forestalling the need to
create additional capacity on area streets and highways.
JCCOG is supportive of passenger rail efforts whether they be regional AMTRAK
service, or local passenger rail. We are aware of the financial and logistic challenges
involved in creating additional passenger rail service in Iowa. We encourage you to
begin discussing the creation of a passenger rail capital and operations funding
program as one of the first steps necessary to bring plans into reality.
Sincerely,
Regenia Bailey, JCCOG Chairperson
