ITEM #1: ADMINISTRATIVE
A. President’s Announcement’s
President Knochelmann made note that he hopes everyone has remained safe and stays
safe.
President Knochelmann asked for a Board meeting change. He said this is a request to
cancel our July Board meeting and change our June 11th Executive Committee meeting
to a Board of Directors meeting. He asked for a motion to approve. Mr. Humphrey moved
to approve the changes. Mr. Weidman seconded the motion; motion carried.
B. Approval of April 12, 2020 Board of Directors Meeting Minutes
President Knochelmann called for corrections and/or additions to the April 9, 2020 minutes of the Executive Committee meeting. There being none, Mr. Humphrey moved that the minutes be approved as presented. Mr. Aiello seconded the motion; motion carried. C. Executive Director’s Report Mr. Policinski, OKI staff, said we are all healthy at OKI and we are very thankful for that. He
mentioned that we are fully functional and have been telecommuting for about two months now.
He said staff members are in constant communication with each other and working as if nothing
has changed. He stated that it can never be said OKI will have to reopen because we never closed.
He said if you do incur a problem, please feel free to contact anyone from OKI. He gave his personal
cell. He stated that the virus is altering many of our lives as everyone knows. Mr. Policinski
mentioned that the number of trips taken since COVID-19’s impact on the economy, and May 1st,
has dropped by 41% across the country. He broke that down, mentioning he feels that number is
low, but with that number, what that means for this region is that every day almost 3,000,000
trips are not being taken. He stated to extrapolate that number out, trips for a year that decline
by over 1,000,000,000.
Mr. Policinski mentioned that one of the things OKI is working diligently on, other than our 2050
plan, is the grants and awards that OKI gives out on an annual basis. He said that OKI is on track
to give out $38.5 million in grants and awards. He said he is happy to say that the jurisdictions are
working very actively and continually engaged with OKI in moving projects forward in OKI’s
nationally renowned prioritization process. He said nationally renowned because it has been
deemed best practice for the Federal Highway Administration. He stated it is good to note that
your communities are working with us and are fully engaged in these very difficult times to get
their part of this $38.5 million. He broke down the total funds; $28M is for Ohio’s STBG, also in
Ohio is $2.7M for transportation alternatives, in Kentucky is $7M for SNK funding and for Kentucky
transportation alternatives is $800K. Mr. Policinski said staff has noticed that many bids are
coming in a little bit higher. He said, as of now, no project has been delayed or cancelled; projects
are moving forward smoothly. He said all seems to be going well with the grants and awards being
issued to your communities.
D. Legislative Update Mr. Policinski discussed Issue 7 which was on the spring ballot. He said issue 7 passed and
congratulated those who were a part of the process. He recognized that it was a tough fight as it
is a very dramatic change for how business is done. What the Issue calls for is a reinventing of the
transit system in Hamilton County. Time will tell on how that will play out.
Mr. Policinski mentioned that at the federal level we are working closely with the Nation Council
of Regional Associations to ensure that regional councils will not be forgotten in funding by the
federal government, whether that funding comes through a new stimulus package or through a
new transportation bill. He mentioned that the current transportation bill runs out on September
30th of this year. He stated that he believes there is very little chance that we will have a new bill
by then which means that after September 30th we will be rolling into a continuing resolution. OKI
has designed their project expenditures and finances such that a continuing resolution will not
harm the amount of money that we can allocate to the jurisdictions. When it comes to an
additional potential stimulus package, we have to take an honest look at this. There is no
additional stimulus package being looked at in the Senate and in the House the democrat’s new
stimulus package of $3 trillion did not provide any dollars for infrastructure.
Mr. Policinski said in closing that he typically presents 4 or 5 achievements of the OKI staff to the
Board each month; it is a great sense of pride whether you are on the staff or the Board to see
just how great the staff at OKI is. This month, he wanted to recognize the entire staff for their
superlative work in these very unusual and trying times. He said the staff has not missed a beat in
providing the excellent service that has always been given to the region, it has maintained OKI’s
remarkable esprit de corps and they’ve shown its memorable ability to happily adapt as we work
through all the issues of working remotely; just their remarkable ability to adapt to the tumult
that surrounds us. He said the team is just outstanding and it is an honor to work with everyone
one of them.
Mr. Haley, SORTA, commented on how excited SORTA is for the passing of Issue 7. He said history
was made today. He thanked OKI for all the hard work they have done in the community and the
support they have provided to them over the years. He said it is truly amazing the work the OKI
does and the support they have given SORTA. He stated that SORTA is excited about implementing
the Reinventing Metro Plan. He said he is without words this morning other than thank OKI so
much for all the hard work.
Mr. Pete Metz commented also, referring to Issue 7, to say thank you to OKI who worked so hard
to help the chamber, especially over the last year to help make this possible.
E. Finance Officer's Report Ms. Purcy Nance, OKI staff, reported that the Finance Officer’s Report was distributed via Constant Contact. She explained that this report contains the financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2020 and includes current cash information. Ms. Nance referred members to page 2 for the current information. As of May 8th, OKI had $328,830 in the PNC checking account, $18,324 in the HSA/FSA checking account and $711,328 in the STAR Ohio money market mutual fund. Ms. Nance reported that there has been no recent activity on OKI’s line of credit and there is no outstanding balance at report date.
Ms. Nance stated that page 3 contains the balance sheet as of March 31st. She reported that Cash and Investments are up 16% from this time last year. Receivables are down 21% from this time last year. Ms. Nance reported that at March 31st, there were $778,000 in receivables associated with February and March invoices. She further stated that payables are up down 24% or $29,000 from this time last year due to the completion of the traffic data project and cancellation of the freight conference, offset by timing of routine invoices. Ms. Nance stated that Revenue information is located on page 4. She reported that at March 31, OKI was 75% of the way through the budgeted year. Overall, revenues are at 72%, which is on budget. She referred Board Members to page 4 footnotes for an explanation of variances greater than 10%. Ms. Nance stated that page 5 contains Expense information. She reported that overall, expenses are at 70%, which is on budget. She referred Board Members to page 5 footnotes for an explanation of variances greater than 10%. Ms. Nance stated that page 6 contains the General Fund Balance information. She reported that the General Fund Balance has had net increase of approximately $105,000 year to date. The two components of this increase are timing differences and year to date activities. The timing differences include a $171,000 increase due to timing of county funding payments and $102,000 decrease due to application of negotiated fringe and indirect rates. The remaining $36,000 increase is associated with year-to-date operations and timing of active projects. Resulting in a year to date fund balance of $1,582,000. Of this amount, $574,000 is committed to active projects. President Knochelmann asked if there were any questions for Ms. Nance. There being none, he asked for a motion to approve. Mr. Reed moved that the Executive Committee accept and file the Finance Officer’s Report dated April 9, 2020. Mr. Gordon seconded the motion; motion carried. ITEM #2: BUDGET COMMITTEE REPORT Mr. Reed presented a review of the budget committee meeting that morning. He said that they had two resolutions to present to the Board and also mentioned that the committee is in the process of bringing the budget for FY21 to the Board in June. He stated that the budget committee did approve to move forward with the budget as presented by staff. He said it will be posted for the Board to review and the item will be on the agenda for the Board’s consideration in June. A. Authorization to enter into an extension of the employment contract with the Executive
Director Mr. Reed presented the renewal for the contract for our Executive Director. He thanked Judge Knochelmann and Mr. Policinski for getting together and looking out for how the organization needs to proceed. He stated that it is an extension of the existing terms of the contract through FY23. He said that the only change to the new contract is a reduction in the increases that would
be afforded to him moving forward, which Mr. Policinski graciously agreed to. Mr. Reed invited President Knochelmann to make any further comments. President Knochelmann said he recapped it very well and added that we hope that we can continue this partnership. He noted that it took Mr. Policinski no time to agree to the new contract and that he is totally supportive of the future and leadership of OKI. Mr. Reed asked for a motion to approve Resolution 2020-12, the Authorization to enter into an extension of the employment contract with the Executive Director. Mr. Weidman moved to approve. Mr. Painter seconded the motion; motion carried.
B. Authorization to Adopt Credit Card Policy
Ms. Melissa Jones, OKI staff, presented the proposed adoption of a credit card policy to the budget committee. She stated that house bill 312 states that the legislative authority of a political subdivision that holds a credit card account must adopt a written policy for the use of credit card accounts. She said OKI developed a written credit card use policy to meet the minimum requirements of house bill 312 and to meet the specific needs of our organization. She stated that OKI has two authorized credit card users, Mr. Policinski and Mr. Koehler. The policy requires that we appoint a compliance officer and the person who fills this position must be an accountant in the finance division and separate from any of the finance officials. She said that OKI already had a policy in place, but it needed to be put in writing, which we have now done. Mr. Reed commented that it is a compliance issue and following the requirements of the house bill. He stated that OKI has already had this in place, but now they also have it in writing. He said the budget committee approved moving forward with this policy to be presented to the board. Mr. Reed moved that the Executive Committee approve Resolution 2020-13, the Authorization to Adopt Credit Card Policy. Mr. Painter seconded the motion; motion carried. ITEM #3: 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan Presentation #7 – Status Report Mr. Bob Koehler, OKI Staff, updated the committee on the 2050 MTP.

ITEM #4: INTERMODAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE REPORT A. Amendment #8 of the OKI Fiscal Years 2020-23 Transportation Improvement Program Mr. Andy Reser, OKI Staff, presented Amendment #8 that involves two projects in Dearborn County. The first is an erosion control project on SR 46; it moves the ROW phase from FY20 to FY21 and increases the programmed funds needed for construction. The second project adds a bridge replacement project on Harrison-Brookville Road. Both projects are exempt from air quality conformity and the Amendment has been posted to our website for comment since April 29th. No comments were received. Mr. Humphrey moved to approve Resolution 2020-14, Amendment #8 of the OKI Fiscal Years 2020-23 Transportation Improvement Program. Mr. Probst seconded the motion; motion carried. B. Concerning Selection of Projects to be funded with Section 5310 Federal Funds Allocated
to the Cincinnati Urbanized Area
Ms. Summer Jones, OKI staff, presented the 5310 funding award recommendations. She stated
that 5310 funding provides mobility for seniors and individuals with disabilities by removing
barriers to transportation services and expanding transportation mobility options. She said that
OKI received 12 applications, 11 of which OKI is recommending to be funded. She pointed out that
the one application that the oversight team was not recommending to be funded was due to their
local match not being secure. She also stated that the Cancer Justice Network submited an
additional piece to their application for a transportation forum to be funded, which the oversight
team does not recommend for approval as they felt it was a duplication of effort from OKI’s
Tristate Transportation Equitable Opportunity Team. She said of the 11 they are recommending it
is a mix of vehicles, software, camera equipment and contract services.
Ms. Jones said approximately $1.3M is being awarded with 5310 funding. Staff is asking for
approval of Resolution 2020-15.
President Knochelmann asked for a motion. Mr. Humphrey moved to approve Resolution 2020-15
Concerning Selection of Projects to be funded with Section 5310 Federal Funds Allocated to the
Cincinnati Urbanized Area. Mr. Weidman seconded the motion; motion carried.
ITEM #5: MARKETING CAMPAIGN FOR THE REGIONAL CLEAN AIR PROGRAM
Ms. Jones presented the marketing campaign for the regional Clean Air program. She said this
program runs from May through September. Resolution 2020-16 seeks authority for the Executive
Director to enter into agreements exceeding $30,000 so staff can move forward with the
marketing of the program in a timely, cost effective manner. Staff is requesting approval of
Resolution 2020-16.
President Knochelmann asked if this was done annually and where do those dollars come from?
Ms. Jones responded that this program is funded with CMAQ funds that staff applies for each
year. These funds have already been approved by ODOT, KYTC and FHWA. She said they are in
OKI’s work program, but OKI’s bylaws do not allow the Executive Director to sign contracts in
excess of $30,000. A special resolution is needed for Mr. Policinski to be able to sign those
contracts.
President Knochelmann asked for a motion to approve 2020-16. Mr. Humphrey moved to approve
Resolution 2020-16 for Marketing Campaign for the Regional Clean Air Program. Ms. Matacic
seconded the motion; motion carried.
ITEM #6: OTHER BUSINESS There was no other business. ITEM #7: ADJOURNMENT President Knochelmann stated that the next meeting would be held on June 11, 2020. Judge Moore moved to adjourn the Executive Committee meeting. Mr. Painter seconded the motion. The meeting adjourned at 11:15 a.m.

RESOLUTION 2020-18 2050 METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLAN ADOPTION
OKI 2050 METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLAN ADOPTION
BACKGROUND: Over the past several months, staff has presented portions of the 2050 OKI Metropolitan Transportation Plan. The update of the OKI 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan is now complete and is presented for OKI Board of Directors’ consideration. The complete plan with project recommendations is available at www.2050.oki.org.
The OKI region is composed of eight counties in three states – Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren counties in Ohio; Boone, Campbell and Kenton counties in Kentucky; and Dearborn County in Indiana. Transportation planning is undertaken for all eight OKI counties.
The OKI 2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan serves as a blueprint for transportation projects in our region through the year 2050. It addresses future needs created by growth and development. At the same time, it responds to Federal Highway Administration and Clean Air Act requirements that call for a performance based planning process for mitigating congestion, addressing air quality, and other environmental, social and financial issues. This Plan meets all metropolitan planning requirements stipulated in USC 23 and USC 49.

The amendment reflected in the proposed resolution includes one transit project in Ohio. The project is exempt from air quality conformity requirements. The TIP is periodically amended, as needed, to reflect additions, deletions or revisions to programmed projects.
Prior to presentation to the Board of Directors, the proposed
amendment is reviewed by staff and presented to the Intermodal Coordinating Committee. The Intermodal Coordinating Committee considers the issue, and makes a recommendation to Executive Committee.
AUTHORITY: 23 CFR, §450.324. FUNDING: The fiscally constrained items proposed for amendment have an
associated funding amount and source specified. Staff has determined that there is adequate funding available, or anticipated to be available, and the funding amounts are shown in year of expenditure figures for this project.
