1. Springfield Main McVay Improvement Transit Feasibility Study Stakeholder Advisory Group (SAG)
Membership Categories –
The purpose of the Main McVay Improved Transit Feasibility Study is to analyze the need, technical viability, and public support
for potential Main Street transit improvements. There are four related projects occurring in the Main Street corridor (Smart Trips,
Downtown Street Lighting, Main Street Vision, Pedestrian Crossings) that have been closely coordinated with the Main McVay
Improved Transit Feasibility Study to date. To date, these projects have been coordinated through a three-tiered management
structure that includes project direction provided by an ad hoc Governance Team (GT) that includes Mayor Lundberg and
Councilor Woodrow, and staff project management coordination and project oversight.
A well-coordinated project team including City, LTD, and consultant staff has worked closely with City and LTD elected and
appointed officials on the GT to develop draft SAG membership categories. The SAG will serve exclusively on the Main McVay
Improved Transit Feasibility Study and will offer project input to the GT at certain project milestones. The GT reviewed the draft
SAG membership list at their last meeting on January 23rd, 2014 and provided direction to staff. Attachment 1 includes the full
SAG membership category list with GT edits incorporated.
Springfield’s Goal 1 Citizen Involvement program requires input from the CCI on forming this type of Project Committee. Staff
request the Planning Commission, acting as the CCI, to review the draft SAG membership category list and provide input. Staff
will then conduct final recruitment for the SAG and the GT will conduct final committee appointments.
STAFF: David Reesor, Transportation Planner
