  4. Goals for Meeting • Identify Critical Features of the Project • Adopt Evaluation Criteria for Gold Ray Road Trail Options • Adopt a Rating System to be used • Identify Potential Fatal Flaws for Gold Ray Road Trail Options • Discuss and Identify Opportunities and Constraints for Trail Routes to be Considered Between Gold Ray Dam and 2nd At-Grade Railroad Crossing

  5. Critical Features • What are the critical features that this trail system must have to be considered a success? • In other words, “Those we can’t live without?” • Action Item: Make a short list of Critical Features (5 or 6) that everyone agrees on.

  6. Vehicle Speed/Count Security/Safety Preserve Aesthetics, Scenery, & Nature Facility Maintenance/ Management Access for Land Owners Access for Public Users Abuse of Area Diversity of Uses Fire Danger Loss of Privacy Road Closure Site Constraints Evaluation Criteria(aka “Filters”) Issues and concerns already expressed by the Solutions Team

  7. Evaluation Criteria • Recommendations: • Limit to no more than 10 Criteria • All Criteria Should be “Universal” • Criteria can be Broad or Specific • Criteria are typically weighted equally • Action Item: Develop and adopt a list of Evaluation Criteria to be used.

  8. Rating System(aka “Scoring”) • How do we want to Rate design options against each Evaluation Criteria? • Options Include: • Subjective – Bad, Neutral, Good, Better, Best • Numerical – 1, 2, 3……9, 10 • Pass/Fail • Other?

  9. Rating System • Action Item: Agree on what rating system should be used to evaluate design options.

  10. Fatal Flaws(aka “Show Stoppers”) • What aspects of a design option would be bad enough to drop it from further consideration or evaluation? • In other words, Design Option does not meet one or more of the Critical Features. • Example: Design Option will not be meet environmental permitting regulations. • Example: Prohibitive estimated cost. • Action Item: Make a list of potential Fatal Flaws that will result in dropping a Design Option.

  11. Discuss Opportunities and Constraints for Design Options • Opportunities: What are the things that we can do here? • Constraints: What are the issues that we need to avoid or work around? • Action Item: Discuss Opportunities and Constraints between Gold Ray Dam and 2nd Railroad Crossing using Aerial Photos.
