Home My WebLink About2013-66 MTSC Report for 12Nov13MASS TRANSIT Subcommittee of the PCDP Date: 11. 12.13 Communication No. 2013 -66 Members: steph b., dan t., russeII j., j on o., j une c., Sharon d., terry d., marry m., j erry r., mark 11., hannah h. Marty M immack, MTS Chair_ Madam chair, Mr. Brown and members of the action committee, I'm here to summarize the current activities and issues of the MT subcommittee. 1. As you may know, I was not able to attend our subcommittee's meeting in September and we did not meet ii1 October. This created a huge vacuum effect and I'm still sorting out the "contents" so that we can move forward with confidence and accurate information from this point. 2. Our meeting notes are not available because of the health of one of our members and certain clarifications that are necessary for our subcommittee to discuss. 3. B' ll 108, amending the County Code, has been signed by Mayor Kenoi. Please see the text attached. 4. Concerning our subcommittee's CI P request, please accept my apology for not being able to assist with this natter. Both I and several of our key members have been out of town or unavailable recently which contributed greatly to our own ability to communicate effectively. As chair, I take responsibility and leadership for my subcommittee even while away so though some may feel the budget subcommittee dropped the ball, we all share in the charge of making sure that such requests are detailed, specific, clear and complete. Had I been asked, by my subcommittee or this body several months ago, to work on such a request, we could have collaborated to achieve even better funding results for the communities and citizens of the District of Puna. S. We are also still working on the Federal Transit Administration's Mass Transit Funding program known as MAP — 21 that could come in very handy as Kea` au and Pahoa continue major developments in the i ntrastructure necessary for a more complete Hub N Spoke system 6. We are still waiting for a response from Tiffany Kai. One of our members has been in contact with tiffany via mail as tollow-up so I will not be contacting Tiffany in this regard. 7. There has also been some discussion about the issues and activities where the Mass Transit subcommittee overlaps with the Connectivity and emergency response subcommittee. I agree that there are more areas or overlap than issues that separate us. This is magnified by a number of the membership serving oil both subcommittees. If this body sees fit in the coming months to merge these groups, you have my support.
