Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Maria D’Andrea, Director of Public Works THROUGH: Patrick Goff, City Manager DATE: March 20, 2023 SUBJECT: Google Fiber Right-of-Way Use
ISSUE: Google Fiber approached the city in late-2022 to discuss installation of a new 100% fiber optic network internet service in the city’s rights of way. If finally agreed upon with Google Fiber and
approved, the city and Google Fiber would enter into a non-exclusive public right of way license agreement. Representatives from Google Fiber will be in attendance at the Study Session to give a presentation and answer questions from the City Council. PRIOR ACTION:
None FINANCIAL IMPACTS: No direct financial impacts are expected. DISCUSSION: Google Fiber is a gigabit internet service provider with the mission of helping communities access to internet that’s fast, reliable and fairly priced. Google Fiber currently offers gigabit internet service to residents and small businesses in 19 metro areas nationwide, between Google Fiber, a fiber-to-the-home network, and Google Fiber Webpass, a wireless network in apartments and
condominiums. They have deployed many millions of feet of fiber and conduit, using a variety of means and methods. If approved, the city would enter into a non-exclusive public right of way license agreement with Google Fiber. Staff is currently working on a draft agreement and responding to questions
regarding the permitting process. Lakewood and Westminster have recently approved similar agreements with Google Fiber to allow installation in their cities. The construction project will implement micro-trenching along the public side of the street which will lower potential impact to the community during construction. Ahead of breaking ground,
Google Fiber will work closely with the City to develop communications materials to inform
2
neighborhoods. Service would be available as segments of the network are completed.
NEXT STEPS:
Staff recommends participating in a discussion with Google Fiber at the Study Session and providing direction to staff if there is consensus to consider a use agreement. If desired and the City and Google Fiber are able to reach final agreement on terms, Staff anticipates that a draft agreement would be on the April 10, 2023 City Council agenda.
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Maria D’Andrea, Director of Public Works THROUGH: Patrick Goff, City Manager DATE: March 13, 2023 SUBJECT: Green House Gas Pollution Reduction Roadmap
ISSUE: The City Council requested an overview of the Green House Gas Pollution Reduction Roadmap established at the state level. This memo summarizes how the Roadmap was developed, the goals
for Green House Gas (GHG) reduction between now and 2050, and the measures currently in place to achieve those reductions. The Transportation sector was identified as the largest source of pollution. Therefore, the memo focuses on transportation-related initiatives led by both the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG). There are no specific requirements for local agencies in the GHG Rule
adopted by CDOT nor the Plan adopted by DRCOG. Instead, possible measures that the city could implement are voluntary. Staff is seeking direction from Council on whether to pursue potential inclusion of the policy-related mitigation measures in the upcoming Comprehensive Plan effort and/or prioritize signal timing efforts to support. PRIOR ACTION: None FINANCIAL IMPACTS: No direct financial impacts are expected. Implementation of some of the policy-related mitigation
measures may result in financial impacts to developers. DISCUSSION: In a state where the effects of climate change are acutely felt — with massive fires, mudslides, high winds and drought — Colorado has developed one of the most forward-thinking greenhouse
gas standards in the nation. In the 2019 legislative session Colorado passed House Bill 19-1261, the Climate Action Plan to Reduce Pollution (Climate Action Plan), which includes science-based targets of reducing statewide greenhouse gas pollution 26% by 2025, 50% by 2030, and 90% by 2050 from 2005 levels, a standard designed to help reduce emissions while providing more transportation and mobility options. To ensure that Colorado continues to make progress toward
these targets, Governor Polis directed state agencies to develop a comprehensive Greenhouse Gas
2
Pollution Reduction Roadmap (Roadmap), (Colorado GHG Pollution Reduction Roadmap). The primary sources of pollution were identified as:
• Agriculture
• Electrical Generation
• Transportation
• Oil & Gas Fugitive Emissions
• Industrial Energy
• Buildings
• Other Non-Energy The Roadmap, finalized in January 2021, delivers a list of near-term actions the state will pursue over the next one to two years to make significant progress toward the 2025 and 2030 Climate
Action Plan goals. The Roadmap also analyzed further actions that can help put the state on a solid
path to meeting the 2050 goal. Using a sophisticated modeling tool, the state determined GHG projections for 2020. This analysis showed that the largest source of pollution comes from transportation. Electricity generation, oil
and gas production, and fossil methane use in the residential, commercial and industrial sectors
are the other three largest emitters. In the transportation sector, passenger vehicles are the largest contributor to emissions in the state. The effects of this governing legislation and the proposed outcomes that most directly impact the
City of Wheat Ridge are primarily within the transportation area and will come in the form of
policies and actions proposed by the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG). Therefore, this memo will focus on the efforts of these two entities and the potential impacts to the city.
CDOT Efforts
In response to the 2019 legislation, CDOT approved a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Pollution Reduction Planning Standard in December 2021, (Code of Colorado Regulations). The GHG Pollution Reduction Planning Standard – also referred to as the GHG Rule - will reduce GHG emissions from the transportation sector, improve air quality and reduce smog, and provide more
travel options. The GHG Rule is one of several transportation strategies identified in the Roadmap
and is a key requirement established in the 2021 state transportation funding bill, SB 21-260, Sustainability of the Transportation System. This bill directed CDOT to develop rules for the state and Colorado’s five metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) to reduce surface transportation greenhouse gas emissions through transportation planning processes.
CDOT and each MPO are required to achieve individually set GHG reduction levels at four different time periods: 2025, 2030, 2040, and 2050. To determine compliance with the reduction levels, agencies must model their existing transportation networks and all future regionally significant capacity projects in their transportation planning documents using travel demand
models, with a subsequent analysis through EPA’s Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES).
For CDOT, the applicable planning document within metro areas is their 10-Year Plan, (10-Year Vision Plan & Story Map); for the MPOs it is their fiscally constrained Regional Transportation
3
Plan (RTP). CDOT meets the required 2025 GHG reduction level through the updated 10-Year Plan. To meet the required GHG reductions levels in 2030, 2040, and 2050, CDOT will rely on a
combination of GHG Mitigation Measures from a wide variety of categories including:
• Bustang expansion throughout the state;
• Transportation demand management (TDM);
• Operational improvements; and
• Heavy-duty fleet electrification. Projects within the 10-Year Plan that impact Wheat Ridge include:
• I-70/Harlan Bridge Replacement
• I-70 Corridor West Metro Bridges (Ward Road & 32nd Ave)
• I-70 and Kipling Street Interchange
• Safer Main Streets Program (Wadsworth Sidewalk)
• Noise Wall Maintenance
• Regionwide Signal and Ramp Meter Upgrades
DRCOG The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG) is the MPO for the Denver region. They work with local governments to establish guidelines, set policy, and allocate funding in the areas of:
• Transportation and Personal Mobility
• Growth and Development
• Aging and Disability Resources
The applicable planning document for DRCOG is the 2050 Metro Vision Regional Transportation Plan (2050 RTP), which was adopted in April 2021. For the Denver region, baseline greenhouse gas values are established based on the defined transportation investments and planning assumptions identified in the 2050 RTP. The target greenhouse gas emissions are determined by
subtracting the rule’s greenhouse gas emission reduction levels from the total baseline emissions
for each analysis year. DRCOG meets the state greenhouse gas rule emission reduction levels through a combination of several strategies and concepts, specifically: 1) Project and program investment changes
• Reinvest funds from select roadway capacity projects to focus on multimodal elements and reduce the amount of increased roadway capacity;
• Accelerate multiple bus rapid transit projects; and
• Reallocate $900 million within the 2050 RTP’s financial plan towards additional and accelerated regional complete streets and other multimodal investments 2) Additional Programmatic Transportation Investments
• Traffic Signal Timing
• CDOT Bustang expansion within the DRCOG area
• Bicycle/pedestrian facilities (primarily urban and suburban)
• Sidewalk/pedestrian facilities (urban and suburban)
• Shared-use paths (urban, suburban and rural)
4
• Complete Streets retrofits
3) Mitigation Action Plan (MAP) As part of its review of the 2050 RTP, DRCOG adopted a Transportation GHG Report (2050 Metro Vision Regional Transportation Plan) that included a Mitigation Action Plan (MAP). The MAP details the region’s approach to using mitigation measures to help
achieve the GHG reduction levels required for the DRCOG MPO area. DRCOG’s
mitigation measures are policy- (not project-) based, and include local government actions related to:
• increasing residential and employment densities
• re-zoning in specific geographies, (e.g. around rapid transit stations, vacant and under-utilized land)
• reducing or eliminating minimum parking requirements
• adopting local complete streets criteria/standards
Specific emission reductions for each measure are shown in the table in Attachment 1. The following table summarizes the DRCOG-established GHG Emission Reductions in million metric tons per year:
Action 2025 2030 2040 2050
2050 RTP Modifications 0.68 0.68 0.57 0.35
Additional Programmatic Transportation Investments n/a 0.07 0.04 0.03
MAP n/a 0.10 0.12 0.08
Total GHG Reductions 0.68 0.85 0.74 0.46
Reduction Level Requirements 0.27 0.82 0.63 0.37
Reduction Level Achieved Yes Yes Yes Yes
The decrease in baseline greenhouse gas emissions over time is due to the CDOT’s estimates for large increases in the share of electric vehicles into the overall fleet. For counties and municipalities, mitigation measures are voluntary, and the MAP does not require
any local jurisdiction to implement a mitigation measure in any specific location or within any
specific timeframe. However, the mitigation measures were specifically chosen to build on the region’s foundation of integrated transportation-land use planning, particularly around the region’s existing and planned rapid transit system and urban centers.
The intent of DRCOG’s efforts to comply with the GHG Rule is not just compliance but to
encourage continued multimodal transportation planning within the region. The mitigation measures are intended to encourage and support multimodal travel options and the benefits that come with thoughtfully integrated land use and transportation planning that provide more people with more travel choices. As the Denver region continues to grow (with another million residents
forecast to live in the region by 2050), the proposed mitigation measures are intended to help
accommodate some of that growth in strategic areas to reduce the frequency and length of auto trips. The proposed measures also will help maximize the region’s current and planned investment
5
in rail, bus rapid transit and other multimodal travel options.
City Impacts
There are no specific requirements for local agencies in the GHG Rule adopted by CDOT. The impacts to the city may involve prioritization of funding away from roadway capacity projects and reallocation of those funds to projects and programs that support travel choices that reduce GHG emissions such as transit and bicycle/pedestrian projects.
Through the 2024-2027 Transportation Improvement Program, DRCOG will implement the Community Mobility Planning and Innovation Set-Aside, which will dedicate $12 million for transportation corridor planning, community mobility planning and innovative mobility. There is the potential for local governments to apply for funding to support the planning and policy
development activities associated with several of the mitigation measures.
Similarly, DRCOG has offered its local governments the availability of its staff and resources to help explore the feasibility and implementation of specific mitigation measures. Examples of DRCOG staff and resource support could include developing and making available model code
language, best practices, training, research, data and analysis.
NEXT STEPS: There are several areas where Wheat Ridge can support these efforts and contribute to GHG emission reductions:
1) Improved traffic signal timing and coordination. Currently, no system is in place to
evaluate signal timing on a regular basis. The Public Works Department is in the process of acquiring a cloud-based traffic management software platform for traffic signals along major corridors. This system would provide communications initially. Other modules could be purchased that allow for data analytics of signal performance measures (SPM),
signal timing optimization and real-time signal control.
2) Adopt DRCOG-related mitigation measures related to land use densities, re-zoning around mixed use transit-oriented developments, and reduced parking requirements. These could be evaluated and incorporated into the Comprehensive Plan update, as determined by the community and City Council.
3) Adopt local Complete Streets standards. DRCOG offers a Complete Streets Toolkit
(DRCOG Regional Complete Streets Toolkit) for local agencies which provides design criteria
and guidelines as well as a sample policy. Again, this could be considered through the
Comprehensive Plan update process. Staff requests feedback from the City Council on their interest in pursuing all or some of these measures.

Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Maria D’Andrea, Director of Public Works THROUGH: Patrick Goff, City Manager DATE: March 13, 2023 SUBJECT: Transportation Funding
ISSUE: The City Council requested an overview of current transportation funding initiatives at both the state and federal levels. CDOT is currently investing a significant amount of funds in the Wheat
Ridge area as identified in their 10-Year Plan. The city has aggressively and successfully pursued various grant opportunities which has brought in revenue for various transportation projects. However, this has stretched staff to capacity. Staff is seeking direction from Council on whether there is interest in pursuing possible grant opportunities to advance various projects or to engage with CDOT in some fashion to advance their planned projects such as the I-70 Kipling Interchange. PRIOR ACTION: None FINANCIAL IMPACTS:
CDOT recently modified its 10-Year Plan, (10-Year Vision Plan & Story Map) to account
for the Green House Gas Rule (GHG Rule). This action changed priorities within the Plan
to focus on projects and programs that support travel choices which reduce GHG emissions
such as transit and bike/pedestrian projects. Incremental formula funding from the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), plus state legislative funding, means that CDOT anticipates expending $1.68 billion in strategic funding on 10-Year Plan projects over the next five years. CDOT will also be applying for federal discretionary grants in the IIJA with a goal to receive between $500 and $600 million in grant funding for various projects. Projects within the 10-Year Plan that impact Wheat Ridge include:
• I-70/Harlan Bridge Replacement
• I-70 Corridor West Metro Bridges (Ward Road & 32nd Ave)
• I-70 and Kipling Street Interchange
• Safer Main Streets Program (Wadsworth Sidewalk)
2
• Noise Wall Maintenance
• Regionwide Signal and Ramp Meter Upgrades Attachment 1 contains a table of the 10-Year Plan projects in the Central Area (Denver metro) with the projects that impact Wheat Ridge highlighted. These projects total approximately $102.5 million of investment in the Wheat Ridge area.
A summary of the revenue that the City of Wheat Ridge has received through the Highway User Tax Fund (HUTF) and the FASTER bill, for the past five fiscal years, is shown below. Funding Source FY 2018 FY 2019 FY 2020 FY 2021 FY 2022
HUTF $1,066,692 $1,025,742 1,109,880 $924,745 $958,493
FASTER $229,467 $229,497 $220,570 $211,508 $200,007
Total $1,296,159 $1,255,239 $1,330,450 $1,136,253 1,158,500
Additionally, the city has been very successful in receiving a number of grants in recent years through both CDOT and DRCOG for various transportation projects – most notably the Wadsworth Improvement Project.
DISCUSSION: Colorado's transportation system consists of a network of roads, highways, bridges, mass transit lines, airports, and rail systems. State and local governments maintain the system with funding from federal, state, and local government sources. Subject to certain constitutional limitations, the
General Assembly has determined the methods of financing Colorado’s transportation system at
the state level and delegated transportation planning to the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), local governments, and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs). The Colorado transportation system receives revenue from several sources including motor fuel
taxes, registration fees, federal funds, and the state General Fund. These funds are distributed
according to statutory formulas. Highway Users Tax Fund The Highway Users Tax Fund (HUTF) is the primary source of highway funds in Colorado.
Preliminary estimates of revenue to the fund totaled $1.2 billion in FY 2019-20. Revenue from the
HUTF comes from the following sources:
• Motor fuel taxes. State motor fuel excise taxes make up the largest share of HUTF revenue. Excise taxes are levied on a per-gallon basis at 22 cents per gallon for gasoline and 20.5
cents per gallon for diesel fuel. The Colorado Constitution requires that any motor fuel
taxes be used for the construction, maintenance, and supervision of the state's highways.
• Vehicle Registration fees. The Colorado Constitution requires that all vehicle registrations, fees, and fines charged with respect to the operation of a motor vehicle on Colorado's public highways be used for the construction, maintenance, and supervision of the state's
highways. Motor vehicle registration fees make up the second largest share of HUTF revenue. Registration fees are based on the age and weight of the vehicle registered.
• Other HUTF receipts. Other HUTF revenue comes from driver's license fees, court fines, and interest earnings.
3
HUTF funds are allocated to CDOT, counties, and municipalities, based on statutory formulas.
Off-the-top appropriations are made to the Department of Revenue, for highway-related functions,
and to the Department of Public Safety, for the State Patrol. The remaining revenue (first stream) is distributed to CDOT (65 percent), counties (26 percent), and municipalities (9 percent). State Highway Fund
The State Highway Fund is administered by CDOT and receives the state’s share of HUTF
distributions and federal funds. The fund also generates its own revenue, primarily from interest earnings on the fund balance and local government matching funds to federal transportation funding programs. The State Highway Fund is the primary account used for maintenance of the state’s highway system.
FASTER (SB 09-108) Funding Advancements for Surface Transportation and Economic Recovery was signed into law on March 2, 2009. The legislation generates increased revenues for statewide transportation improvements. Revenues generated from the Road Safety Surcharge, Oversize Overweight Surcharge, Rental Car
Surcharges, and late vehicle registration fees are credited to the HUTF and distributed per statute
to CDOT, counties, and municipalities. Federal funds Congress authorizes the expenditure of federal funds by state and local governments through multi-
year transportation funding acts. Federal funds are distributed to states from the federal Highway
Trust Fund, which collects motor fuel taxes and truck-related taxes (truck and trailer sales, truck tires, and heavy vehicle use). Highway Trust Fund disbursements are paid to states based on formulas in federal law. The primary (roughly 62%) source of federal funds comes from the 18.4 cents per gallon Gasoline Tax.
The IIJA was signed into law on November 15, 2021, to improve the nation’s hard infrastructure and create millions of jobs to underserved communities. The IIJA provides approximately $1.2 trillion dollars over the course of five years from the fiscal year 2022 through the fiscal year 2026 budget. More than $35 billion of those dollars will go towards needs within all modes of
transportation. Funding is also identified for broadband access, clean water, and electric energy
and power renewal. $284 billion of funding is set to go to the United States Department of Transportation. Transportation funding will be distributed through either sub-allocations or competitive grants to
the following efforts:
• $11 billion toward safety
• $7.5 billion for electric buses
• $110 billion towards bridges and roads
• $17 billion towards electric vehicle chargers
• $1 billion towards reconnecting communities
• $25 billion for airports
• $66 billion for rail work
• $17 billion for waterways and ports
4
• $66 billion for transit
Further breakdown of the IIJA Structure:
• $73 billion for energy and power through the U.S. Department of Energy
• $55 billion for water through the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
• $46 billion for resiliency through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security
• $8.3 billion for the western water infrastructure through the U.S. Department of Interior
and U.S. Agriculture/United States Forest Service
• $65 billion for broadband through the U.S. Department of Commerce Local governments have the opportunity to access the law’s funds through various competitive grants. Typically, staff will be notified of these funding opportunities (NOFO) through CDOT or
the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG). The White House also publishes a list
of current open funding opportunities and a list of when future funding opportunities are expected to be available in 2023: Open-and-Upcoming-Infrastructure-Funding-Opportunities-Feb-6-2023-VF.pdf (whitehouse.gov)
A few examples of competitive funding include:
Rebuilding American Infrastructure Sustainably and Equitably (RAISE) This competitive grant program provides $7.5 billion in funding for transit, road, and other
transportation needs. Applications submitted to this program will be evaluated on environmental
sustainability, state of good repair, safety, and quality of life. Applications will also be assessed for community connectivity and mobility. DRCOG announced this grant opportunity in January with applications being directed through them. Lakewood and CDOT are applying jointly for a RAISE grant in the amount $45 million (of an expected project cost of $127 million) for the US
6/Wadsworth Interchange Project. Annual NOFOs are expected for this program.
National Infrastructure Project Assistance This competitive grant program supports multi-jurisdictional projects of national or regional significance. Eligible applicants include a state or a group of states or a unit of local governments.
Selection criteria include projects that generate economic benefits, reduce congestion, improve
safety, and eliminate freight bottlenecks. The availability period for this grant is four years. Safe Streets and Roads for All (Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Grant Program | US Department of Transportation)
This new competitive grant program will provide funding exclusively for and directly to local
governments to support their efforts in completing street improvements that will reduce fatalities and auto accidents, especially for pedestrians and cyclists. This program is also known as Towards Zero Deaths or Vision Zero. Evaluation criteria include:
• Ensures investment in the safety needs of underserved communities
• Likely to eliminate or reduce transportation-related serious injuries or death
• Demonstrates engagement with a variety of stakeholders, both public and private $5 billion will be distributed over the next 5 years through annual NOFOs.
5
Charging and Fueling Infrastructure This $2.5 billion grant program is expected to fund the development of electric vehicle
infrastructure and other natural gas fueling infrastructures.
NEXT STEPS: There is likely some opportunity to pursue funding through the SS4A program for new sidewalk connections, pedestrian bridges, etc. as well as some of the other IIJA programs. However, the
current project load has stretched staff to capacity. Staff is seeking direction from Council on
whether there is interest in pursuing possible grant opportunities to advance various projects or to engage with CDOT in some fashion to advance their planned projects such as the I-70 Kipling Interchange.

PROJECT PIPELINE
CDOT’s 10-Year Plan represents projects proposed for strategic state and federal legislative funding. The table indicates:
Project Type: Highway (H), Transit (T), Rural Paving (RP)
Total Est. Project Cost: This is a planning-level estimate of how much a project will cost in total.
Total Strategic Funding: This indicates how much has been approved for funding or is proposed or planned for funding from state strategic funding sources (SB-1,
SB-267, and SB-260) and federal strategic funding sources (federal stimulus and IIJA). Note: Sometimes the total project cost is more than what is being proposed for
strategic funding, especially for the larger projects. This indicates that CDOT may need to request additional strategic funding, or will need to leverage the strategic funds
with other funding sources to deliver the project.
Other Funding: A check mark in this box indicates other funding sources (state, federal, local, grants, enterprise funding, etc.) will be utilized to deliver the project.
Funded FY 19-22: This shows projects funded by SB-1, SB-267, SB-260, and federal stimulus (2021) during the first four years of the 10-Year Plan, fiscal years 2019-2022.
Proposed FY 23-26: This shows the projects being proposed for funding for the next four years of the 10-Year Plan, in fiscal years 2023-2026.
Planned FY 27+: This shows the projects being planned for funding in the outyears of the plan, fiscal years 2027 and beyond.
