The
meeting was called to order at 11:05A.M. via conference call, by Mark Bollmann. Mark asked for everyone on the call to introduce
themselves and give any updates of the agency they represent.
The
minutes from the November 2017 meeting were reviewed. Todd Krebel made a motion to approve those
minutes. Sheila Niederhofer seconded the
motion. Ted Gutierrez asked that the
minutes be updated to reflect that Jimmy Leadingham represented Jackson Co. MTD
instead of Shawnee MTD. Terri Finn will
make the correction and the minutes will be approved with this correction.
IDOT
Maintenance Information:
Terri
Finn provided a PowerPoint from Mike Healy (IDOT) on maintenance policy &
procedures. Terri went thru the PP:
Elements
of a Successful Plan-Should be clear and attainable listing why, how & who
is responsible
How-Clear
statements should be used of when maintenance will be done. The Plan must state who will be responsible
for the completion of the maintenance items.
Best
Practices Time Table-(3,000-5,000-10,000 mile items)
Monitoring
Variables-daily speeds, length of time the bus is out daily, miles per day,
ridership, frequency of equipment use, detailed descriptions of
topography.
Tools
to assist with an agencies maintenance program are available such as web based
organizational software for record keeping.
Maintenance
of ADA equipment-The last 1500 vehicles that IDOT has funded have Braun lifts
and agencies should be using a Braun trained professional to work on this
equipment.
The
last page of the PP is information about a maintenance tracking system that
IDOT plans to make available to agencies that have funded vehicles.
