Kick-off meeting, 9/4/08
. "Present: Don Angermayer, Lynn Detering, Bruce Ebling, Ramona Cline, and Jeff Lange
. . A sub-team was formed to decide a plan to consolodate access and provide joint
approaches where feasible, and to permit all accesses within the project limits.
. The team consists of the attendees above and Jamie Hollenbeak.
. Lynn will research the ownership and tax lots, existing approach status, and initiate the
. access control report process, This information is due to the team on 9/12/08
. Bruce will supply the access inventory information consisting of: milepost perameters of
project, width of existing driveways, and the engineering stations. This should be
completed by 9/19/09. He will also coordinate with the Survey Manager to have a survey
done of the area. We would like this done as soon as possible, as it is the next step in
, planning this project.
. The team discussed multiple issues and answered questions that brought some of the
team members up to speed up to speed, '
.' Our EA for this project is C82011 07-000

NOTES:. The following would be variables that would be examined on a case by case
pasis and may be varied by the RAMEs or an engineer registered in the state of Oregon:
I) Distance to the front of a stopped vehicle. There will be situations where it
will be appropriate to vary this distance,
.?) The speed measure utilized to determine the required sight distance may be
varied based upon an engineering study. The object height may be varied.!n
those situations as determined appropriate.
