serious questions for thoselocal governments currently responsible for

The iMpression that the ::PO designations and the proposed acjteef+ente implerenting
the designations are an attempt to circumvent the Federal intent for local
.elected official control of the urban transportation planning process is
reinforced by the fact that the federal regulations call for the Governor
to designate an organizat_iort, not individuals, as the MPO. Existing
governmental entities composed of local elected officials, such as County
Commissions or Regional Planning Councils, would not only better meet federal
requirements but also would not require fragmentation and duplicate needs for scarce
planning funds by a new set of public agencies responsible to the State.
The Council has previously taken a position regarding MPO designations. In
May of 1976,after review of House Bill 3100, which also attempted to establish
ad hoc MPOs, the Council adopted the following recommendations:
1. In those charter counties where the County Cormission chooses to act
as the transportation policy body, the Commission should be designated
as the MPO; and
. Where regional planning councils are responsible for transportation planning,
the RPC Board, if composed of local elected officials, should be designated
as the MPO.

The intent of federal _al regulations (Title 23, Chapter 1, Part 450) is clear:
local elected officials of general purpose government are to have primary
responsibilit•, and decision -raking authority for urban transportation planning.
Both the proposed Interlccal Agreement and the Memorandum of Agreement
currently being circulated by FLY: would significantly increase State control
over local transportation planning in urban areas.
•
Federal regulations specify a broad range of responsibilities for the >PO.
The agreements drafted by FOOT would significantly reduce local authority for
urban transportation planning, specifically by the provisions which would give
the Depart:.2n t veto power over local decisions en:
1. all third -^arty contracts (Section 8.00, .:CA and Interlocal Agreement)
2. the Prospectus (multi -year planninc program)(Section 4.03, ''.OA)
