The MMPL is a core product of the MPO that serves as a bridge between the MPO’s Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) and the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The MPO is required to develop an MMPL in coordination with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Four planning staff and local partners to set funding priorities for federal and state funds within our region. The List is submitted to FDOT District Four annually by August 1 (s.339.175 (8)(a) and (b), F.S.). FDOT uses the MMPL to develop the Draft Tentative Work Program that is presented to the MPO each fall, which in turn is used to develop the following year's TIP. The FY 2023 MMPL will be used to develop the FY 2024-2028 Draft Tentative Work Program and the FY 2024-2028 TIP.
  
Only projects contained in the Cost Feasible Plan of the MTP are eligible for inclusion on the MMPL. The Cost Feasible Plan for the 2045 MTP was approved by the MPO Board on December 12, 2019 as part of the overall 2045 MTP document. It contains six funding programs and established percentage allocations for the MPO's attributable funding in order to account for the region's multimodal transportation needs. The six funding programs and their associated allocations are:
 

Program	Allocation
Highway/Roadway	20%
Transit	10%
Transportation Systems Management and Safety (TSM&O)	15%
Complete Streets and other Localized Initiatives Program (CSLIP)	20%
Complete Streets Master Plan (CSMP)	25%
Mobility Hubs	10%
Total	100%

 
The FY 2023 MMPL has been structured to reflect the MTP funding programs above plus support of the Board adopted UPWP. This year, the Broward MPO introduced funding program thresholds based on MPO attributable funding availability for each funding program to ensure funds are programmed based on the percentages defined in the table above. To facilitate project delivery, the MMPL emphasizes a “Program Ready” concept. Program Ready means that a project includes a clear scope of work, an approved resolution (for projects administered via FDOT's Local Agency Program [LAP], the resolution must also include FDOT-specific LAP language), a cost estimate, and collaboration with partners. Projects that meet all four criteria are eligible for funding.  

To view the DRAFT FY 2023 MMPL, which also includes the priority projects from Florida's Turnpike Enterprise (FTE), please see Attachment 1. The MMPL is also available on the MPO's website at the following link: https://browardmpo.org/core-products/transportation-improvement-program-tip (Please scroll down to the "Multimodal Surface Transportation Priorities and Methodology" section).

Attachment 2 summarizes the projects fully funded or removed from the previous MMPL.

MPO staff and FTE staff will make presentations (provided in Attachment 3 and 4, respectively) at the meeting in order to solicit feedback on the MMPL. Questions and comments will be addressed at that time.
