Abstract
The Lane Coordinated Plan satisfies federal requirements enacted through the passage of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for User (SAFETEALU). It is specific to funds administered through the FTA and the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) Public Transit Division with expectations for planning and coordination of these resources. The federal requirements for the coordinated transportation planning process are retained under new legislation signed into law on July 6, 2012, by President Obama titled Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21). MAP-21 took effect on October 1, 2012. Some changes were made to improve the efficiency of administering grant programs by consolidating and repealing several programs. Programs relevant to this plan are §5310 Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities (Enhanced Mobility), §5311 Rural Area Formula Grants (Rural and Small City), §5316 Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC), and §5317 New Freedom. This 2013 update to the Lane Coordinated Plan will update important information in order to ensure that the Lane Coordinated Plan is relevant to present conditions; include transportation needs of veterans and their families and how these are identified; reference relevant needs assessment and local planning information; match needs with preferred coordination practices and projects; list projects and resources; and report on public review and comments about the Lane Coordinated Plan.
