Re: Town Council Workshop: Transportation Master Plan Update (2010)
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The Town was recently awarded a grant from the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) in the amount of $35,000 in order to develop a "Transportation Master Plan Update" to study the existing and future conditions of the transportation system within the Town, including the roadway networks, the transit system, the pedestrian and bicycle networks and to determine how each interacts with this existing and future land uses.
The full cost of the Transportation Master Plan Update totaled $70,000. The MPO's grant award funded $ 35,000 and the remaining funds (required grant match) of $35,000 were funded by the Town's General Fund.
The Corradino Group, Inc. successfully completed the Town's original 2010 Transportation Master Plan (Town Resolution 08-34) which, was also partially funded by an MPO grant. The Town retained the Corradino Group, Inc., to develop the "update" to the Transportation Master Plan which included a series of both Public Involvement and technical Steering Committee meetings. Town staff has determined that Corradino Group, Inc. would be best suited to prepare the update to the Town's 2010 Transportation Master Plan and would provide continuity and the Town would benefit from their existing understanding and development of our existing Master Plan.
