Cameron County Regional Mobility Authority Strategic PlanGoals Accomplished 2007‐2011GOAL 1: DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT SHORT AND LONG‐TERM ORGANIZATIONAL PLANS, BY‐LAWS, AND POLICIES AND PROCEDURES THATPROMOTE THE CCRMA OBJECTIVES.The CCRMA Board of Directors completed the process of developing the structure and policy components including its by‐laws, procurementpolicies, and employment policies.Policies and procedures were directed at developing an organization focused on streamlining implementation, developing aggressive projectschedules, and maintaining strict fiscal accountability in an efficient business‐like environment.For the initial operations of the starter projects, the CCRMA employed the Cameron County Director of Transportation as the Interim RMACoordinator, and other staff members. The Authority plans to further employ a Chief Administrative Officer, a Director of Operations, a PublicInformation Director and other key staff members as deemed necessary. As the CCRMA develops and matures, any number of the functions willbe managed by additional in‐house staff or supplemented by additional contracted services, as experience dictates.GOAL 2: IDENTIFY START‐UP SYSTEM PROJECTS AND DEVELOP SCHEDULES AND BUDGETS THAT ENSURE TIMELY AND COST‐EFFECTIVEPROJECT DELIVERY.Critical projects were identified at the conception of the program including West Parkway, the Second Access to South Padre Island and variouspass‐through financing projects. Although the initial pass‐through projects were deemed to be not advantageous to the total program topursue, the two larger projects provided a springboard to other regional projects that were incorporated into the CCRMA System. For example,the Outer Parkway, SH 550 and the East Loop (SH 32) projects are cases in which projects were cultivated from the two initial start‐up projects.As projects were identified, the CCRMA determined project feasibility to ensure a successful Program. By developing assertive schedules andsuitable budgets, projects are being advanced to provide timely and effective delivery of the individual projects.The following is a list of the CCRMA System Wide Short and Long term projects:SHORT TERM PROJECTS U.S. 77 South Padre Island 2nd Access General Brant Road Olmito Switch Yard West Rail Relocation Outer Parkway SH 550 SH 32 East Loop U.S. 281 West Parkway (On‐Hold)LONG TERM PROJECTS Rail Extensions Border Crossings Flor de Mayo International Bridge Port International BridgeA-10
