Or. Admin. R. 660-012-0180 - Financially-Constrained Project List
(1)
Cities and counties shall include a financially-constrained project list in a
transportation system plan. Cities and counties shall use the prioritized
unconstrained project list developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0170 and the
amount of funding available developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0115 to
produce the financially-constrained project list.
(2) Cities, counties, Metro, and the state
may only develop, fund, and construct projects on the financially-constrained
project list.
(a) Cities and counties may only
submit projects on the financially-constrained project list in their
transportation system plan to the financially-constrained list of a
federally-required regional transportation plan.
(b) Cities and counties may permit projects
on the unconstrained project list but not on the financially-constrained list
to be constructed if the project is built by a property owner as a requirement
of land development and the project would not require review as provided in OAR
660-012-0830.
(3) Cities
and counties shall create a financially-constrained project list using the top
available projects on the prioritized unconstrained project list and the
planning-level cost estimates developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0170. The
sum of the planning-level cost estimates for projects placed on the
financially-constrained project list shall not exceed 125 percent of the
funding available as identified in OAR 660-012-0115. Cities and counties shall
select projects such that the resulting financially-constrained list would:
(a) Reduce per capita vehicle miles traveled,
as provided in OAR 660-012-0160;
(b) Burden underserved populations less than
and benefit underserved populations as much or more as the city or county
population as a whole; and
(c) Make
significant progress towards meeting the performance targets set for each
performance measure as provided in OAR 660-012-0910 or OAR
660-044-0110.
(4) If the
list of projects cannot meet each test in section (3), the city or county must
adjust the project list to find the highest-ranking set of projects that can
meet the criteria in section (3). This is the financially-constrained project
list.
(5) Cities or counties making
a major or minor amendment to the transportation system plan as provided in OAR
660-012-0105 which includes an update to any project list, shall update the
financially-constrained project list as provided in this rule.
(6) Cities and counties shall prioritize the
implementation of projects from the financially-constrained project list for
their ability to reduce climate pollution and improve equitable outcomes using
the criteria provided in section (3) of this rule.
