New subject: Urbanized Area Boundaries

28 Mar 2001

i believe next spring is the target. after the review of the criteria posted today, census
will go back and do its thing. FHWA put a memo out on this that can be found at 
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/c2000mem.htm

it begins to answer some of the "what if i am a new mpo" questions.

  Ed, as a small MPO expecting an expanded urbanized
area, our local governments are very interested in "when" the urbanized area
boundaries will be designated.  Do you have a target date for Colorado on your radar
screens yet?

 Thanks for keeping us current on CTPP and Census matters.  We sincerely appreciate the
updates.

plans on using to
 describe urbanized area boundaries. There is a text version and PDF
 online. The PDF version has some graphics that are not in the text.
 Below is the URL for the PDF. I have also included the short URL to the
 NARA site incase the long link doesn't work.  I am sure once we have had
 a chance to wade through this there will be some discussion. By the way,
 comments are due by April 27, 2001
