  1. DOWNEAST COASTAL CORRIDOR MANAGEMENT PLAN UPDATE Kickoff Meeting March 20, 2014

  2. DCC Management PlanUpdate OVERVIEW: • Call to order and introductions • Major changes since 2010 DCC plan (available online) • Prioritize previous plan recommendations • Update driving force matrix & scenarios • Future meeting date(s) and data needs

  3. Regional Changes Since 2010 • Decreasing Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) • Increasing demand for transit & ride-sharing • Down East Sunrise Trail completed & opened • New marine freight imports-exports via Eastport • Third designated scenic byway – Bold Coast • More towns with comp plans/LU ordinances • More conserved lands • Updates for driving forces and scenarios: “It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future.” -Yogi Berra (paraphrasing others)

  4. Review and Ranking Exercise • Eight transportation-related plans over past ten years still have unimplemented or partially implemented recommendations • Primary cause: lack of funding & staff time • Still high-priority…? Still even relevant…? • Increasing costs + decreased funding = need to reexamine and prioritize regional goals • Distinguish between “wants” and “needs”

  5. RANKING CRITERIA (from worksheet)

  6. Driving Forces Analysis • “Factors or trends that affect future development along corridors.” • Driving factors => future development; future development => corridor demand • Major categories of driving factors: • Socioeconomic conditions • Infrastructure & new technology • Policy choices at local, state, federal levels • Built & natural environment along corridor

  7. DRIVING FORCES UPDATE

  8. Set Up Future Meetings • Thursdays 12-2 seem best for most (some may need to leave early) • Choices: 4/3, 4/25, 5/1 for next meeting • Data needs for next meeting • Just-in-case meeting: 5/22, 5/29 • Public hearing for draft plan (evening meeting): 6/12 or 6/19 • No more free lunch…you may brown-bag or eat beforehand for future meetings.
