Good evening.

Welcome to the November 21st active transportation commission.

The meeting is now called to order.

Will the clerk please call the roll to establish a quorum?

Here.

Commissioner Ladickard.

Here.

Christchurch Gonzales.

President.

Commissioner Haap.

Here.

Commissioner Gores.

Absent.

Commissioner Moore.

President.

Commissioner Banks.

And Chair Haudel here.

You have a quorum.

I would like to remind members of the public and chambers that if you would like to speak on an agenda item,

please turn in a speaker slip when the item begins.

You will have two minutes to speak once you are called on.

After the first speaker, we will no longer accept speaker slips.

We will now proceed with today's agenda.

Please rise for the opening acknowledgments in honor of Sacramento's Indigenous people and tribal lands.

If this land, the Nisan on people, the southern Maidu Valley and Plains, me walk that when Winton peoples and the people of the Wilton Rancharia,

Sacramento's only federally recognized tribe.

We acknowledge and honor the native people who came before us and still walk beside us today on these ancestral lands,

by choosing to gather together today in the active practice of acknowledgement and appreciation.

Sacramento's Indigenous peoples history, contributions and lives.

Thank you.

Please remain standing for the Pledge of Allegiance.

We have a packed agenda tonight.

Five big items.

And I think we can get it done in two hours as long as we keep our.

Questions concise and our intros not too long and Commissioner Gibson has to leave us by 730.

So.

A very good reason to go home to a three week old son.

News since our last meeting and so we're going to keep things moving along tonight.

Our first business today is the Commission staff report staff.

You may proceed.

Chair Hodele.

Hello everybody.

Jennifer Donlin-White.

I have a few very brief items for you this evening.

The first at the request of chair Hodele was an update on the eBike lending library.

So we are at the program is ready for a launch at Bell College, South Atomas and the Valley High,

Laguna Library, Bant Branches.

Hending updates were updating the instructional videos.

And our communications team and public information office.

Oh, I think most folks know that the program at the colonial heights library is down to a fire.

And the North atomas one was going to launch.

However, we've got a term of a leak underneath the lockers and we need to address that.

So we're moving that and address that leak.

The other update for you all is that last month in October,

you approved and forwarded to PMPE your annual report for 2024.

Your tentatively set to go to PMPE on January 7th.

Typically that meeting is at 11 a.m.

Because we have no meeting between now and then,

we will make sure that the commissioners know the specifics once they're confirmed from the process.

Whether or not it's January 7th at 10 a.m.

Last but not least, today is our last meeting of the calendar year.

As you know, we do not meet in July nor do we meet in December.

So the next meeting will have is in January and that'll be on January 16th.

And it'll also be here in historic chambers.

So just be aware of that and don't just walk over to New City Hall.

In 2025 and that is my update. Thank you.

Something personal to announce.

Thank you chair and commissioners.

So as of November 2nd, I have a new job title at the City of Sacramento.

I am the division manager for a new division called mobility and sustainability,

which we'll be setting up and launching over the next couple of months.

And so I'm really excited for this opportunity.

Really excited to help our city become the greatest city.

And a big part of that will be in our new role.

So thank you.

And can you will you still be sitting in this chair?

I have a lot of I don't know.

So I don't know likely probably not that I won't be staffing the commission anymore,

but I think it'll probably take some time to recruit another principal planner to fill my vacancy.

I'll probably take over that role.

But we'll see.

I hope you continue.

Commissioner door whisper.

I'll swear within the city.

So the new division of mobility and sustainability will be housed within public work.

So it's a new division within public works.

And it will include transportation planning.

The sustainability team.

An asset management and planning team, which is an existing team under our street team.

And then we're looking at forming maybe one or two other sections around curb management and special projects.

But to be determined over the next couple of months,

I'll be working with city leadership to identify exactly how the division is set up.

So now we need.

Okay, we need to do an order of business that isn't in my script.

And so Sapphire is going to explain what it is.

Sapphire is on from the office of the city clerk.

As this is the last regular schedule meeting before your current term expire,

the office of the city clerk will like to extend our sincerest appreciation for your service to the active transportation commission.

Your service has been invaluable to this commission as well as the city of Sacramento.

I will now be handing you their certificates of service.

If anyone would like to say a few words regarding their time on the commission, please feel free to do now while it passes out.

Thank you.

Comments from anyone on certificates of service.

So don't see any hands up again.

We're moving on.

Next is the approval of the consent calendar.

Oh gosh, here I am back to Sapphire.

Clerk, are there any members of the public who wish to speak on the consent calendar?

Thank you chair.

I have no speakers for this item.

Thank you.

Are there any commissioners who wish to speak on the consent calendar?

Commissioner Gibson?

Yes, I would like to request an item to be added to the log.

I saw the results of the latest Truxel bridge update that city staff presented at the town hall last week.

And there did not appear to be an update to have a transit only option which appeared to be kind of the will of the active transportation commission, although we didn't take any formal position.

So my request to add to the log is quote the active transportation commission recommends that the city council direct staff to evaluate a transit and active transportation only version of the Truxel bridge proposal.

That's basically it and I'll send over those four questions to JDW and Jeff after this meeting.

Thank you.

I follow up with a couple of questions.

So you're asking for an action item from the commission so this staff report would come from the.

And so we'll need to work with you to agenda is it and it would be an action item sounds like you're asking the commission to correct.

Okay, we'll work with you on that and work with the clerk's office on that.

Of course, be happy to do whatever stuff on the back end to help it get a giant ice.

I have a motion and a second for consent calendar.

So moved.

Commissioner Howt has made the motion seconded.

Commissioner door Westbrook has seconded will the clerk please call the roll.

Commissioner Harris.

Aye.

Commissioner Gibson.

Aye.

Commissioner do a Westbrook.

Aye.

Commissioner Ladickard.

Yes.

Vice Chair Gonzalez.

Sure.

Commissioner Hop.

Aye.

Commissioner Gores.

Absent.

Commissioner Moore.

Aye.

Commissioner Banks.

Yes.

And Chair Hodell.

Aye.

Thank you.

Motion passes.

We will now proceed to the discussion calendar.

Item number three is the H SIP 9 Lumpastis Boulevard

in Rylinda Boulevard and Valley Hyderivin LaMonjuay update.

Is there a staff presentation?

Yes, there is.

Members of the Active Transportation Commission.

My name is James Craig and I am here to present the Lumpastis Boulevard

there.

And over a Little

Project goals are to reduce traffic fatalities in serious injuries, provide comfortable

and controlled crossings for all users, and increase mobility choices by removing barriers.

These locations were selected based on high crash frequency, high death or injury frequency,

and eligibility for federal funding through the highway safety improvement.

I have included an image on this slide to demonstrate one safety concern due to the absence

of crosswalks at the Limpossus and Real Linda intersection.

In the picture, there is a person actively crossing the intersection.

Project locations are as follows.

First project, Limpossus Avenue and Real Indable of Art in District 2.

And the second project today, Sally Hyderyve and Lamontia Way, in District 5 and 8.

To start, I would like to describe the intersection at Limpossus and Real Indable.

I have included a bird's eye view of the skewed irregular intersection.

Imaging is rotated with north facing towards the right.

The primary movement in this intersection runs north south from Real Indable of Art to Limpossus Avenue.

In the last 10 years, three pedestrians have been struck at 10.

Unfortunately, the intersection at Limpossus and Real Linda is a four-way intersection with two-way stop control.

Here is a missing sidewalk and no crosswalks or bike lanes are present.

Along the sidewalks present, there are multiple pinch points caused by the utility pole placement as demonstrated in the attached image.

For Bramps, here I either deficient or missing.

This intersection is a mix of collector and local roads with dual north and southbound lanes on Real Indable.

To address these issues, my team has proposed the following improvements.

Installation of new sidewalks and pedestrian crossings.

Overhead, hardwired, dual rectangular, rapid, flashing beacon or RFB system.

Additional street lighting and pedestrian refuge islands.

ADA compliant curb ramps, pedestrian warning signs and yield markings.

Chain reduction and last two bike lanes.

curb extensions.

Particularly in areas near utility poles causing pinch points.

This is an example image of an crosswalk with an overhead RFB system along with a.

Tangular rapid flashing beacons are button activated electron.

It's all to enhance pedestrian visibility with a highly conspicuous flash.

Restory and refuge island enables two stage crossings.

To wait if they.

I would like to talk about the second age sit project on the valley high drive and La Manche.

I've included aerial imagery of this corridor with extends south on La Manche away from south Elder Creek.

South on valley high drive from Mac road to bridge.

Dimitri is rotated with north towards the right.

Last 10 years there have been 16 pedestrian struck along this corridor.

12 of which were attempting to cross the road.

16 people struck.

Unfortunately.

Valley high drive is a six lane 85 foot wide collector road with the limit of 35.

Between crosswalks of 1,150.

Valley high drive also has no bicycle lanes.

24,000 vehicles use valley high drive on a typical weekday.

To improve safety and accessibility this project includes the following improvements.

A new signalized intersection.

VA compliant curb ramps.

Reduction and class four bike lanes.

curb extensions and a continuous median with offense.

We will attach an image of the proposed signal with.

Showing how these proposed improvements will work together.

Accessible pedestrian signal devices will be integrated at the new signal.

Decating walk and don't walk intervals through.

We will have a quick time.

Concentrating accessibility.

Both of these projects are currently in the design and right of way phases.

We will be completed by the.

I have no speakers.

I have no speakers.

Are there any commissioners who wish to speak on this item?

I have no speakers.

Commissioner Gonzalez.

Thank you, James for the presentation.

Good to hear that we are putting many changes into the build environment.

The valley high, bristle road design.

It seems very thorough.

I am a big fan of the signalized intersection there.

I know we use off the shelf materials for the fencing.

Artistic fencing can be more prohibitive to replace when struck.

I would encourage us to look into opportunities to work with their local business

Improvement districts or other organizations to perhaps instill art on those fences.

We can provide safety enhancements.

Art can go a long way to activating a place and making people feel more welcome and safe to use it.

The better behavior we will see out of it.

I will be a broken record when it comes to the last avenue.

I do not like rapid flashed beacons.

I do not think there are good mechanisms to use on our roadways.

I am a great person.

I do not like the situation for drivers.

When drivers use yellow light they do not stop.

They do this in signalized intersections.

I am afraid they will provide the assumption of the pedestrian that they have safety.

They have achieved the right way and they can cross without any dangers themselves.

I know we are way too far along to change course now.

I am going to be a broken record about it and hope that it could be retrofitted in the future when funds became available.

Lastly, I note that the image you showed of the rapid flashed beacons.

I noticed that there was uses of the state law, yield to pedestrian signage in there.

Is that going to be installed in this project as well?

Or is that just an example you were providing?

I cannot recall seeing the city having installed that.

They may have and I do not recall it.

I do not recall the city and sawing those signs.

I would like to see them more prominently displayed in places where it is appropriate.

Broadway where we completed the complete streets project.

Many other streets.

Thank you for showing that picture.

If we are going to have those signs in it, perhaps we should find pictures.

I am going to have to find out how to make sure that the design is not too far.

I will find out how to make sure that the design is not too far.

Thank you for the information and good work on the projects.

Thank you, Harris.

I am super excited about these improvements.

I think it is going to be an amazing project.

I did want to ask for clarification.

What sort of protections or divisions are going to be in the Rialinda segment.

I think it is a clear protection for bicyclists.

Class 2 bike lane.

Is there any chance to get bullards like there are in other areas?

I know there are issues with sweeping but I am concerned with the blind corner.

I think it is a good intersection.

People may use the entire paved space as sometimes happens.

If that is a possibility for now in the future, I think it would be a nice addition.

I think it is a good intersection.

I think it is a good intersection.

I am going to sign at the intersection.

I am going to sign now.

Physically and.

I think the green refuge island will be a good place to go.

I think it is a good place to go.

I think it is a good place to go.

So it will be defining these turning moves.

It provides a better definition to driver.

It is not enough room to add a button.

I think it is a good place to go.

It is not enough room to add a button.

I think I will look, I understand.

I don't want to sit down on the project.

I love to see the same protections for bicyclists and have some of the.

Question is you have a slide that showed the real endable of our

the real endable of our lump houses section with red aerial radio lines going.

So I'm one, but you've really, you've really only talked about the intersection itself.

So how far do those improvements go on, can you show that slide?

Nope, there were, it was more in the beginning.

Yes, that's a good one.

So, yes.

So do those improvements extend on to all of those lines?

Yes.

Okay. That helps me understand because you mainly talked just about the intersection.

And I look at the Lamonja Valley High Area and that's like six tenths of a mile of improvements.

And it just seems like you've got two projects here and you've got this six tenths of a mile here and you've got one little intersection in North Sacramento.

And it just again seems lopsided for an area that is vastly underserved getting this much well.

Another area of Sacramento gets this.

And so that concerns me.

It's the second time I've noticed in side by side projects that I feel North Sacramento is getting short-change, which means the gap in improvements for a bicycle infrastructure, well all infrastructure.

The gap widens.

So that's my observation.

Okay.

Door West bread.

I think kind of expanding upon that. Could you share a little bit about the project's teams?

I can't speak to that because I've hired after those conversations.

Forward does the city.

I want to say one.

So typically because that so for those of you don't know the age of the highway safety improvement grant program.

It's administered by the state. It's a very technical application process and it's a very technical program that it funds very little but expects a whole lot.

And so in order for it to be competitive it has to meet these thresholds.

We typically have not done community engagement leading up to that because we're looking at any wide collisions or identifying the hot spots that are going to score well within this particular grant program.

But changes need to happen in order to address the factors that are involved in those collisions and then whether or not this grant program will fund those.

So for example this grant program typically doesn't fund your ramps.

And so it's a process.

So the top rate of collisions that are intersections or locations with collisions that then have treatments that can be funded through this program rise to the top.

If they involve walking or biking improvements we typically bring it here to this commission and this actually was brought to this commission when we did that.

And that is typically our process. There's not a whole lot of community engagement because this program is.

Earlier with their grant programs that are also challenging.

So I guess it just makes me think you know one of our requests from the commission preview.

To have a dashboard where community members could see spots.

And I just kind of see this as an opportunity for the city to better.

Take those those hotspot locations.

The bowl to community members I understand it is a very technical program but hearing folks now that you know it seems like they're.

Sounds like maybe some additional community.

Along with coming to us I appreciate you.

I did have.

I think it was your project on a Lamontia way and Valley high drive.

I think we have a standard around the distance between.

Not familiar with those development standards.

I think we should think about it as like or sorry.

Commissioner we do have guidance in the pedestrian crossing guidelines that came before this commission in 2021.

I'm blanking on the number and distance but they were goals that were set in that document.

And we can report back to you if you like on that specific distance but that was identified in it and vetted through the commission a couple years ago.

I can revisit myself don't need to give you extra work but this kind of was something that came up for me while during.

I think I mentioned that.

Several times that the city city isn't always able to.

They are our fb's.

To start looking.

Whether or not those have been successful.

Anyway that that.

slightly different of opinion then vice chair Gonzalez I know they continue to

install them in this

you're in sacrament no way

and my last question was I didn't

improvements would require right of way in both situations

there's been any conversation

okay item thank you item number four is the streets for people neighborhood connections draft

plan is there a staff presentation

you

hey by it with Matt Broughton from killson

I'll be going over

so the streets for people plan is a plan to improve citywide network for

so the neighborhood connections portion of the plan will be focusing on residential and minor

streets while the streets for people network will be

I forgot to left here is showing how the two networks are going to

so a major update since last brought the plan to the commission

online and kind of how we're going to

so the streets for people plan we could complete it in two parts

heart one will include completing the neighborhood connections

and it'll be

option of the

appropriate the neighborhood connections

so you're probably asking why two parts um so transportation funding is

funding for the neighborhood connections

so um but it's also giving us the opportunity to

so yeah we anticipate bringing the streets for people

so

okay so um some

additions reports we have both one first

all as first phase of engagement in summer of 2023

network how they get around destinations they go to

we also came to ATC

second phase or then we developed a network

engagement earlier this year

so how did we develop the network so the methodology for uh identify and neighbor connection route

seeing local streets namely the the residential and minor collectors

they are creating those low-stress connections

so

we're talking biking and rowing and creating

so we identified those community destinations in the first phase of engagement like i mentioned earlier

and those destinations were grouped into

so

first

get the jules

major institutions like hospitals

so then utilizing the data and the feedback from phase one and community engagement

so

outs designed for people of all ages

the comfort is measured through street

walking and biking and rowing facilities

so a lower level of traffic stress or

so

so many of that most people would be

walking or biking or rowing while higher lts score would be associated with some

so for the neighbor connections network we identified um 431 miles of streets to connect

folks

the network is split into primary and secondary routes

the primary route routes

they'll take those low-stress connections shown in blue

sorry in pink and the secondary network will provide a way fine to connect folks to

so um some benefits of the network um over 50% of all residences in saccharino will be within

secondary network or

so

the network serves over two-thirds of the

nations including uh 90% of the k-12 school

while not all the destinations will be accessible via the network

the network provides direct connections

all the two

eternal will help provide

so how does they all fit together um

street-to-people network will serve those longer distance trips on those major collectors

still citywide but we'll be more in April

so together the two networks will provide a connected network of

out

so in this um graphic two networks can link together um

so

class four or

hard and then take the neighbor

relatively low-stress connection

so um some implementation recommendations

and um

so they're organized into four areas so traffic calming by default um

so the process is to get the neighbor

sign policy updates um

to support the neighbor

so

the opportunity to speed up that

we also have a traffic calming toolkit which we brought

oh but it is

the

categories of traffic calming

filter permeability

frontal deflection

those could be used together to have that traffic calming effect

and um in addition to the toolbox the plan also includes example applications

so

note that all these uh recommendations will need

showing the idea of how we can

get these neighbor connections

so next steps

so once the neighbor connections

so

so the tpp was developed on using extensive account community uh i reached

so

this is my

transportation safety and fixing

so it's important to note that the city needs to prioritize these projects and ensure that

citywide

so how to get involved um

you can visit i highly recommend you if you haven't already visit the

club page sacks trees

cool you can also

out at streets for people

sacrameno.org

and if you have not already i encourage you to sign up for a newsletter um

w

this is my um presentation happy taking questions or

very much uh clerk are there any members of the public who is to speak on this item

thank you chair i have one speaker for this item our first speaker is

matt anderson

good evening commissioners met anderson uh thanks to staff and

jeff especially this plan is awesome i'm very excited to see this uh come forward pretty uh novel

and just really big leap forward for sacrameno so very excited for this we are a city that is

excellent at planning

concerns about this two big thumbs up uh really just thinking about the implementation stage

at this point there's a lot of cool cool there's a lot of uh actions at the end of document but not

never resources right isn't that the game

one of the actions i'm i'm i'm concerned i'm curious about it though specifically is going to

council in getting blanket approval for all of these tools in the toolbox that is one of the

appendices um be able to be put on the streets that are approved guidance that's one of the

recommendations just curious if that's something that the planning department is going to do and

stations that stay in there for a future i just wanted to highlight that as a you know

hopefully something that gets elevated i think that would be a really great way

other than that really excited really appreciate all the work that

trust

you are there any commissioners who wish to speak on this item

commission or banks

you

and we've aggregated most that data um i don't know if everything is

okay i'm sorry um so you're talking about the interactive map that we had earlier

um so we did put it up the map itself so folks can still

uh and then we do aggregate it and then we kind of

yeah yeah absolutely yeah and they do definitely um get factored into the recommendation

um

all right yeah

um now that that data includes it would need to be anonymous in order to share with the public

we just don't have the resources to go through

that's it's about price tag if we were able to do everything

we have um planning level estimate cross estimates for like the individual

um and then you i guess

and so we could come up with a

um this toolkit that you're creating

putting in quick build elements into that toolkit

you know

court gap or the intermediary

element that you know treatment

is prior to something permanent looks like the toolkit

added in some quick build

way to get quick build in there you guys um that we also might be able to um you know start to move

along with

and becomes one of these

uh

those treatments could be

you commissioner Harris

are you excited about the plan?

i am a little cautious about this toolkit that everyone else seems excited about

following up from our last meeting

we change um and due to federal regulations

um there's no way to get cross walks if you don't have sidewalk

i'm going to tell you that in my neighborhood some of those great networks have no sidewalks

there's no plan to get them sidewalks so when we talk about this toolkit

i'm worried about a built-in equity issue which is that

the quick build easy fixes wall great and necessary continue to focus um solutions

on areas that are already far safer and more resourced

have a simple sidewalk or a simple bike lane and this is real i was looking at that great

this is

database and um

these and my neighborhood's worst than i realized it's really scary

like i don't know how many you have people have to get hurt and die

for someone to

i don't think the marcoony intersection

they're apparently all the time

so when we're talking about these tools i would love for the toolkit to be focused

and be looking specifically at tools that can actually be actioned

that need them the most because there's no way the sidewalks are going to be built

what it looks like definitely not in some people's lifetime

so we could really think about those tools because

i don't want the toolkit

i want to make sure that we have a built-in equity bias

plan isn't necessarily addressing those sidewalk issues but the streets repeat

so after recommendations that we had earlier the summer did recommend

so these two plans together

so

are westbrook

also very excited about this plan and the possibility for more traffic coming across our city

just a question around

achievement in um work that you've done so far there are certain parts of the city

so

how can we as a commission help you all

yeah that's a great question um so the first two phases of engagement we did a lot um

i think it's in like the hundred

of events and different

issues community associations that we joined um so this one uh we had a couple of virtual workshops

which we had

always we're trying to get more

Sacramento south Sacramento

taking the word out into those neighborhoods would definitely be

they know more hands up oh commission or more

just share i think similar love the ambition of it and especially like when we look at the map of

the essential destinations and then the options and any that looks like majority

city which i think i just share the grand optimism and also concern with that

the question i have that i

suddenly oh yeah within the tpp right so these projects

projects have already been identified or will be and then those will use the tpp's metrics for evaluating

them within the existing transportation priorities list or they will have their own

list outside but using the same metrics

so we'll be using the metrics from the transportation priorities plan

okay so so they'll get integrated into the transportation priorities plan afterwards or they're

just going to remain two separate lists and then how are we prioritizing between

the two?

they'll be incorporated into the master list

the overall list in the tpp because our funding is not specific to any

generally we put everything in the bucket

hyperarity meaning project list in the plan

you

Commissioner Gores thank you and to my fellow commissioners for being late

work helped me over and traffic giving help so my apologies

Jeff great presentation the portion that i caught i'm going to ask your question you

pally had in the presentations so forgive me if it was there and i missed it

um you said in the treatments some of the treatments in the plan will require some further study

before implementation do we know how about how much time the study takes about before you implement

i can't speak to the time it does take some engineering

green agent lights and stuff like that

so some of the stuff's kind of off the shelf like a speed lump i think we could do

about

thank you thank you Jeff this item is receive and file so no vote is required we're going to

move on to the next item item number five is public review draft parking strategy is there a

step presentation yes there is

my name is vick randall i'm a senior planner on the city's long range planning team

i just wanted to also start by acknowledging ryan dot

also on temporary assignments supporting the public work

Jennifer is about that and i want to thank Jennifer dynalline and

helping this strategy

the uh

uh

strategies rooted in policy direction included in the housing element uh to explore instituting

parking maximum along established corridors

40 general plan includes a wide range of related policy recommendations to

cycling including around the first last mile first and last mile solutions user prioritization

multimodal access to prioritize active transportation

general plan also calls for the continued deployment of a parking management strategy that

promotes shifting trips from single occupancy vehicles to biking walking public transit

and high occupancy vehicles climate action and adaptation plan also includes policy direction

to support increased cycling acknowledges the importance of bike racks and secure parking

so the project was initiated to rethink vehicle and bicycle parking in sacrameno

and points to the strategy include expansion

throughout the central city and along transit corridors continuing to improve parking the parking

services divisions exceptional management of parking in the city through the development of a

parking management

last point which is the focus of our discussion tonight is to increase bike parking requirements

in new developments to support the projected increase in the number of trips made by bicycle and

sacrameno general plan and cap policy

we want to touch base on our project schedule we kick this project off in 2023

project we form two

existing of 12 individuals each

calling on representatives from a range of commission organizations neighborhoods and interests

with one working group focused on parking policy related to residential development and the other

focused on

I'd like to thank the working group members for their time and input

been invaluable as the project team has formulated the

particular I'd like to thank commissioners Houdelle and door westbrook for their

participation in representing this committee this commission and also commissioner Morph for

representing his day jim

input was excellent and that we really appreciate

pity also hosted the first set of community conversations this past January

either input on our preliminary recommendations

hosted a second set of community conversations

then facilitate public input on our draft

so the strategy recommends creating two read

I want to note these are this map shows central city and then our transit

or

so areas within a half mile walking distance

we're applying these for our recommendations for

also applying them and

parking requirements so I think we may rethink this

so

so these are represented here and then we'll

so current bike parking requirements and sacrament are low compared to other cities and only consider

the

requirements will include adaptive tolls electric bike

low support improved comfort and

larger new bicycle

held chart here

requirements so the two left columns reflect

our

central city and our transit oriented

second two columns

include recommendations for the balance of the city

classifies the percent of long-term bike

last column includes requirements for charging infrastructure

so I just want to give an example of

sample project

required to provide 1.125

10% or nine of those spaces would be required to accommodate

the

clean outlets would need to be

same aid unit development

75

short-term bike parking spaces

total of 30 short-term bike

would typically be outside such as a bike

in addition the strategy proposes required amenities for certain

such as showers and lockers

how I practice in many cities particularly for

where there are a lot of employees

recommendations also include updating the bike rack design and placement designs

will involve looking at components of short and long-term bike park

so the strategy includes recommendations for those guidelines including guidance on

the

accessibility

facility-siting and placement and expanded

dimensional requirements for bicycle park

this would be completed as a subsequent project to the strategy

cities made the public review draft

strategy available for public comment

document via the online community workshop

test through the website listed here

sites at evesacriminals.com

so in addition to the online community workshop

those parallel community workshops last

facilities advisory commission and the planning and design commission for

access those and use that all those comments

and

intent is to then

thank commission and city council

that I'd like to thank you for your time

we're able to answer a question to your mic

thank you

thank you very much

clerk are there any members of the public who wish to speak on this item

thank you chair I have a one speaker for this item our first speaker is Dan Ellison

good union commissioners Dan Ellison I live in district four

what's in this parking strategy seems great I didn't see anything there to

dislike

what concerns me is what's not there this is not a parking management plan it's

just covering a piece of the parking thing the general plan promised a

parking management plan this is not it

what's not there there are several things

curb management is one of them there's nothing about curb management in there how

do we allocate curb space to different kinds of uses

most importantly there's nothing about day lighting in there and

when I asked the question of this in the public meeting I was told there would not be

anything about day lighting in there so where is it going to be nobody knows

crickets from the city um

parents as though is moving along on this quite effectively um they have been communicating with

the public they have been issuing warnings already this month they will issue

tickets starting January 1st as their authorize to do by the state law

state law has been in effect since January 1st and the city has instead a word about it

if you search the website there's no mention of AB 413 or of day lighting at all

and it must be somewhere in some plan and this is the logical voice for it to be thank you

so thank you

thank you chair i have no more speakers on this item are there commissioners who wish to speak on this item

commissioner Harris

thank you for the presentation would it be possible to pull up the map

all right thank you very much um i don't have any comments or concerns

personally about the central city um i am concerned about the transit zone areas

i am apparently in one of them i am less than a quarter mile away from um the light rail station

i'm racony and as i will be a broken record about there are no sidewalks or bike lanes and there's no

um there's no i think the cities remove the some of the requirements for having off street

parking for cars um and we are absolutely designated as a high density multi-family area to be

which is great i am for that i have a hard time wrapping my head around a plan that requires bicycle

parking where there is not a safe way to bike to the transit areas so my recommendation would be

if a bike lane exists and i hope that will motivate the city to build said bike lane

on some of these areas is that in the plan or is that addressed in these areas that are close but

have no safe actual way to get to the transit stops

i would like to see that put in because i think it'd be great i'm not against by parking

i should be clear not against bike parking i think it's great i just think it's very ill advised to

do any sort of impetus on private owners to provide a resource that cannot be safely used

here Gibson uh first of all thank you for your work um on this and i appreciate that we're going

in the right direction by lowering our requirements for parking um but i actually want to speak about

parking maximums which i know is not a subject of that you want focus on here um so i'm in district

three i spent a lot of time in district two and one actually spend far more time there than they do in

the central city and it because of the lakes of car parking in natomas um it is makes it actively

hostile for walking and biking and active transportation use and because basically all of district

one and two are sorry one and three uh traditional natomas um are not included um in the parking

maximums for all these areas my strong recommendation is consider parking maximums throughout the

entire city because um for all of us who going for black Friday shopping and are using their cars

a lot of the areas in the tomas um have far more parking than is needed which adds an additional

burden on to the developers for costs and also makes it a lot more hostile for biking walking and

other active transportation use um so that's one recommendation i have now and i just also want to

highlight if anyone drives down um i5 or sees the health net campus um in natomas a four or five story

relatively not that big building it's actual space where the building is built it's probably three

the four times parking is the actual land use of the space versus a three or four story mid rise office

buildings kind of just an example of how overbuilt the parking is and if we have parking

maximums it would actually potentially discourage developers um for wanting to over supply parking because

um that's potentially add some limits so that's um one recommendation i just like to

pass on and then the second one i don't i don't know if all my commissioners are gray on this one

but when it comes to the multi-family um three unit issue about requiring bike parking so we

just have this um big city push for um the missing middle housing where you're looking at relatively

small units you know kind of like that Victorian six unit thing have concerns for having kind of a

a middle threshold from you know a one two unit building all the way up to you know six or eight

units where we requirements smaller than the same thing for an 80 unit at the 80 unit building

examples lovely and i completely agree but if the city goals and policy for our missing middle is to

really reduce as much requirements on the developer i don't want having bike storage place

behind our new housing because um my comments and thank you all for your work and this is the

right direction so you're going in. Commissioner do our whisper. How much for your presentation it's

really enjoyed being a part of the work group and the conversation that you all have um a lot

of to be a part of so thank you for that um a couple questions first and we had mentioned various

committees and meetings that you've held will the city be putting a summary of those comments

received on the project website. I think yeah i found that to be really beneficial i know for

other projects it's a requirement but in transportation i don't know we tend to be a little bit more

loose on sharing comments received on projects so i would appreciate that. Okay perfect thank you so

much um okay the other i really appreciated Dan's comment um around how the plan currently does not

speak to how the city will implement a b 14 13 is that something that the project team is i

Jennifer is getting ready okay go ahead Jennifer. Commissioner do your whisper so the

a b 4 13 for those you don't follow statelessly super closely is the state law that prohibits parking

on the approach side of an intersection to ensure that people crossing the street.

It is on our work plan and public works to do we have limited staff so the staff that are

working on the b 43 the speed limits who were here last month when they finished that the

probably passing may be on a b 4 13 projects as they come through but it is on our list.

Thank you Jennifer and i haven't looked at the specific bill language in a little bit of time.

Is there any cons is there going to be um consequence i guess for the city for not implementing the bill

um so so it's nuance for a b 4 13 it states that parking you basically use the

more on the approach to the intersection um there is no requirement of the city what we want to do

is we want to sign it or stripe it indicate in some fashion to drivers that it's because not

everybody like a law and we'll automatically know that you can't park in that look and so it's

um there is no penalty for the city to not get on it's one of the things that we do we follow

state legislations is to make sure that a state legislation moves forward and not an expected cost

or burden to the city. Thank you yeah thank you so much and i am aware that that specific piece

of legislation did not come with additional funding for cities so i completely understand the

challenge that's ahead of the city and implementing uh said bill while i fully supported um i would

just maybe make a recommendation since we're talking about parking in locations where it makes sense

this would be a good opportunity to include additional bike parking uh in that space because i think

it still allows um there to people to be visible who are crossing the crosswalk and it's providing

additional bike park. I think that at those intersections um would include more bike parking sorry

I feel like the audio goes in and out I think i'm just moving around um my last question um was

around e-bikes really excited to see um the investment in more e-bike infrastructure that this plan

is proposing um i know in larger cities like New York um New York City for example um they have

had some concerns with specific e-bike batteries um and fires that have been caused um curious if

you're if the team has received any pushback from developers um around these e-bike facility

requirements and you know not necessarily um having to say in what type of e-bikes will be parked

in their in their buildings okay so we

kind of the working group structure

yeah um i think something we can consider as we

yeah and i think new york is probably the best example right now the city that's really thinking about

um e-bikes and the some of the challenges that are there with thank you for thinking about it

more i also extend thank you to jr. mabba for attending those round tables and providing

really great comments uh for the transit corridors and i'm sorry if we've discussed this in some

of those meetings but can we can we not include planned uh corridors such as the green line

could that be recommendation right now

got it okay um

the yeah i guess i will want to share that one i really appreciate the alt parking um the

standards that are going to be in there i think the current guidelines are very limited those in

their recognition and certainly in what they require for alternative parking spaces so i want to

echo the appreciation for that i do to commissioner Harris's comment i am really positive about the

i what will be essentially a surplus of bike parking these places i don't know how much the

existence of bike parking incentivizes trips but i do see it as a barrier once facilities are

safe enough to that maybe are interested um so really do appreciate that component of this

commissioner Gibson's comments i think are really

commissioner banks much for the presentation appreciate it i'm kind of curious about what we're

talking a lot about bike parking and how many spaces i'm really curious about

um as i'm about we get calls all the time

well we all know it um and so i'm curious about security around all of these new spaces

where to put this bike parking so i did street lamp and of a door so people can

in

part of so commissioner banks now so this this is solely looking at our umber code and like what is

required of development their bicycle parking is placed is part of the bicycle parking setting and

design that we took and in that that does have a recommendation and typically this affects developments

and so where developers put it is typically in front of their building and with their short term

parking not they're like i assume you're talking about the short term parking

those insecure um we hope and i think it's one of the things that we're hoping to tackle with the

subsequent effort to this

and we are hoping in a future work plan not immediate again we're

fighting standards

so

it's not a plan so vix work that he's doing is getting ready to address city code

make those changes so it's not a plan and we're going to adopt the code and make the changes

element comes in there adding the level of car parking and bike parking at the city which

the the citing standards for the bike park

will be brought before this commission and then i'll

won't be links but they will be related and the same people working on them be collaborating working

together

is on the docket needing to be addressed

Mr. criticism

I've gotimo no idea what kind of

You're fifth

So

All right.

B

Commissioner Gonzalez.

Commissioner, I just echo and command all the commissioners tonight for other comments

they're all very nuanced and I feel like not all bike parking is critical.

And you know, I guess it's a little infuriating when I see developers put in like these cute

bike racks that are designed and artsy and I get it like it's nice and on and a moment

ago I was just speaking about how art enhances areas.

But we don't do that with car parking.

Car parking we have standards.

So for the parking, for the bicycle parking that we're talking about for this project

is everything you have to be standard and art project bike racks don't count toward

that total.

Commissioner Gonzalez, you're speaking to my soul.

So when we developed in 2016 or 2017 that's not part of the code but it's part of the

city requirements as part of the bike parking design and setting standards and I'm messing

up the time.

So we discouraged but allow art racks and art racks and that was a balanced city council

wanted art racks allowed.

And so what we did was we parameters around what art racks can be.

And so they have to provide and you actually two authors of the APP's bike parking guidelines

and the self and Ryan Dodge worked on the last version and I worked on the version

before that.

So we use national standards to identify what two points of contacts have to be secure

so that it can be easily cut with a saw cutty.

So and then so we created the standards so that art racks need to be functional.

And then when they go through the development process and a developer proposes an art

rack it is required that it comes to my team for reviewing or that it is meeting our

standards.

Maybe there are ones that are coming through that slip the cracks and that we didn't see

or the developer was permitted to install a certain type of rack and they switched it out

the other.

Something new coming in that you see that isn't a basic two points of contacts and you can

tell it's a bike rack please let us know.

Out of the day where we have the same discussion about parking for cars and artistic unfunctional

parking spaces for cars.

Commissioner Harris.

A conversation about art racks which I didn't know that was a term of art.

It made me also wonder if this parking plan was going to address allowing parking and

existing facilities.

I have been in apartment buildings that did not have sufficient parking.

It's about parking like you can't park your bike on your patio which is in some small

places unless you're going to keep it inside.

Is there any opportunities to in existing facilities that don't have sufficient parking

to say if you don't have these numbers that you can't just allow at least you can

just use your patio or

just to be clear we can't also say they can't say people can't park their bikes.

I'm talking if they don't meet these numbers and they have a rule that says you can't park

your bike on your patio but they don't have parking that's something that could be addressed.

Correct for existing is this something that we could just address people who want to park

their bike on their balcony and may have a rule or I'm sure there's other places I don't

know I'm not being creative sorry that they people sometimes innovate places and use what

they have and sometimes that's not allowed you know they chain it to a stairwell we've

all been there and done that.

Is that something that could be considered?

Thank you I don't see any more hands up so this item is received in file so no vote

is required we're going to move on to the next item item number six is the Norwood mobility

project review and public engagement and there is a staff presentation.

Do you hear me better okay all right.

Hello commissioners Jennifer Donlin Wyatt glad to be with you this evening here to present

on the Norwood mobility project.

We have a new planning study that we're doing on Norwood.

Over tonight why Norwood what are we looking at for existing conditions.

Bernie's we want you to share it with your next steps why Norwood Avenue.

Norwood is a critical quarter that is a high priority in the transportation priorities

plan.

It serves students there are five schools near all businesses small local businesses and

the high-end green network and it is a priority in the transportation.

So what we're trying to do is a data driven community support.

We want to raise awareness about the project so you can tell all your friends your neighbors

anybody that you know better feel for what the data does not.

Going to Robertson Community Center.

I really know that because I've went up there.

Those are the types of things that we wanted.

So this is a calutrious transportation planning grant that has an incredibly tight timeline

and moving at high speed.

Why we're doing all of our engagement now because we don't do engagement between Thanksgiving

and so we're doing our first phase of community engagement back to the community.

And the community will tell us and then we will

say hey what do you think to be getting right we made those revisions.

Don't have a lot of wiggle room.

Doing a lot of community engagement.

We're talking about Northwood which is in the Robla area from South to Archeid.

It's about two miles long.

It has a lot of land uses.

We walked the corridor on a surprisingly hot October day up and down to experience it

first hand.

The nuances of the corridor.

And really just to get a feel for it.

Pretty whatever the land uses.

I'm going to.

They're breaking the corridor up into four seconds.

So segment one is up in the north by main avenue.

The approximate volume.

For their south.

Again we have four lanes here.

We have consistent sidewalks in this section.

Very inconsistent bikeways.

And we move to the more southern segment south of 80.

The last segment to the south because we had changes.

Travel lanes.

It was now closer to our currency.

Sidewalks on both sides and we have bike lanes.

So when we're looking at the existing conditions we're not only looking at what's.

How we can improve.

This will not be a surprise to you.

We think folks while consistent sidewalks.

We want frequent crossings and a perfect.

Similarly for biking having consistent.

When we walk the court.

And inconsistent bike.

Like minimizing.

You don't operate.

And do those stops have amenities.

And so similarly what we're hearing here for north.

So we're asking folks to provide their input.

And so we want folks.

And so.

That is open through the end of December.

And.

And so next up December 9th we'll help.

Then we are going to take input on the other.

Thank you very much.

Are there any members of the public who wish to speak?

Thank you chair.

I have no speakers lips for this item.

Are there any commissioners who would like to comment?

Commissioner Harris.

I'm so excited.

It's great.

Divided, protected by claim.

And whatever shade and.

Not just the consistent by claims that.

Is for those of you who haven't been there.

Symptomatic of an overall lack of any sort of.

And I think this.

The opportunity to provide.

At investment and cohesive.

And that sounds aesthetic.

But when you have a sense of like, oh, this is a place.

And.

And things don't move around.

And I know where I am.

It could be really helpful.

And so.

And so.

Fighting.

And of course, we're always looking for.

Then anything you do to.

More.

And so.

And so.

Essentially, I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I'm getting it right.

I'm mixing up another program.

What's three.

Or would, right?

Yeah.

That's right.

Okay.

Want to make sure I wrote things down.

So from those community members.

A lot of them are struggling with asthma and other air quality

medical related.

Sometimes the books has less.

When we run in with an influence on.

Come to kind of my own pictures.

And.

They kind of bring my.

They all.

When there was some concerns that they cited.

Were accessing the schools.

People were not seen enough.

Crosswalks.

Many of themcja find.

But a lot ofian.

Vernym,

so there are nations that are messed.

And.

Any more.

That's how others might have.

And.

Green space, electric buses was an early, really trying to control some of the air quality

components around.

Protect it all.

Protect the bike lanes as much as you can where there's still potential for right-of-way.

All of that vehicular lane width, I'd love to see it when it gets converted.

So just echoing that from that perspective, and I'd be happy to send you a report in

any other that.

Especially over the freeway, if we can get some extra protection there for bicycles crossing

or the free-.

Head of myself.

Tracks.

Vice, vice-chair guns, all this.

Thank you, Jennifer.

Great presentation.

I'll be brief.

I just want to echo Commissioner Harris' comments.

We need a Johnny Apple seed.

I just dropped in seeds.

Just walking up and down the boulevard and getting a tree canopy out there.

It is brutal.

Why was it brutal on October?

It's a heat island, right?

It was a hot day.

Climate change is real, but also it's going to be like that for a long time.

And I want to echo what Commissioner Moore was just saying about the burnouts.

I would love to hear that when you go back to the community and I preach all your community

feedback.

I'd like to see what Commissioner Moore was saying about this problematic issue with burnouts

is that it offers as a potential mitigation, like some tactical organism, quick builds,

site-hand solutions, armadillos that we've actually seen down on Detroit Boulevard have

been used in Detroit neighborhood.

Center, lane, small rubber hums that can be just bolted in that prevent that kind of

behavior 24-7.

Seven days a week.

It's passive infrastructure.

It doesn't require enforcement.

We don't have an issue with equity.

As long as you drive in correctly, you can't do the burnouts.

You're going to have a bad time.

I would love to see that implemented in this plan because I think if anywhere there's a pilot

project where it's worthy to see what can we do with passive infrastructure to burn

out behavior, this is the perfect place for it.

Thank you.

Commissioner Banks.

Fall and it might not be relevant, but when you're intersecting roads and the highway,

there's a lot of altercations.

Absolutely have to work with Cali.

So we'll be engaging them once we know better.

We're Westbrook.

Thank you so much.

Thank you for the presentation, Jennifer.

I think this is really exciting.

Would you mind going back to the slide about the schedule?

I think we're going to have a little bit of time.

All right.

There we go.

Okay.

So the final plan will be adopted in December 2025.

Okay.

Great.

So I think one thing is just for the city to think about and you probably already are, but

you know, ATP cycle eight will be in 2026.

And so the completion of this plan is coming at a really good time to consider putting together

either a quick build application or infrastructure projects.

And maybe something in your conversations with the community now to see if how they feel about the idea of

that something that our commission has been really passionate about.

And so just looking at the schedule, it's a possibility for a quick build project to take place on the corridor.

So I want to flag that.

And then you had mentioned also numerous schools along this corridor.

Within the plan is there like any safe routes to school chapters or kind of.

Oh, sorry.

Oh, yeah.

Yes.

To the plan.

So we started outlining what the plan will get.

However, we don't have a.

I think what we are doing is that we are.

Fantastic.

Thank you.

And then the last thing in regards to coordination with Cal.

I know that they previously did active transportation plans for each of the districts in there in the process of updating those plans.

So they are.

Yeah, I know.

So, you know, your fellow intern is the person leading one of your fellow interns is leading that process.

So, just encourage you to connect with them early on.

If you can, conversations around how some of the improvements are identified, you will identify in this.

Make it into the Cal trans district.

Of course.

I think that's more.

Make it quick.

Has the city explored the use of what essentially are raised crosswalks the width of a protected bike lane.

I haven't seen any here, but I know right where protected bike lanes interfere with transit.

They as use them.

I have written on them.

So did he looked at that or do we have any considerations.

When I had seen or experienced and you're right about the toaster, I've forgotten that one.

There was it was essentially just kind of really.

Upperized.

Probably a structure underneath.

Stop.

That modular bus stop.

Yeah.

Is that what.

Yes, that's exactly where I was right in it.

So, yes, today that modular one in San Jose and a couple of.

And then with that, how do we.

This item is receive and file.

No vote is required.

We're moving on to number seven.

Which.

Which is connecting how avenue safety and mobility plan overview and public engagement.

Good evening commissioners.

Jennifer Donnelly.

Why in here to present on our how avenue.

Connecting how avenue.

Objects I just discussed.

Tonight.

Why how avenue the planning area.

A little bit faster this because I think you.

Now, avenue is one of the vision zero top 10 quarters.

I mean it's one of 10.

Now, obviously serves a different set of communities than we talk.

So, we're serving a lot of uses.

And it is very.

So, same thing we want to raise awareness.

We want to hear about your experiences.

And we want to see how you can.

That we want to finish by December of 2025.

We have engagement.

What are your what's your vision.

You're a couple alternatives.

What are you.

The planning area for here is from fair how and fair.

And we want to see how you can.

And again, we walked the corridor.

And we're going to see how you can.

I'm using a really very.

So, we go up on how our fair.

And we're going to see how you can.

Ask campus comments.

Our area community.

I'm just going to say that.

Down to the highway 50.

And we're going to see how you can.

This corridor has.

Six lanes in this northern section with me.

And we're going to see how you can.

And we're going to see how you can.

And we're going to see how you can.

And we're going to see how you can.

And we're going to see how you can.

And we're going to see how you can.

And then we're doing community engagement.

And we talked with community members.

And we're going to see how you can.

We'll have, you know, same thing alternatives.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And I'm really curious, mostly about what possibilities are there for the.

I'm really curious about what possibilities are there for the.

I'm really curious about what possibilities are there for the.

And which I would never ride my bike to even though it's literally under a mile because of safety.

So I feel you Melissa on this steps, but I'm really curious about the bridge because that's an enormous structure.

I'm really curious about that.

And so then the bridge after that in our priorities, the truck's a bridge.

And so we'll have to get creative with that.

And we'll have to get a bridge.

But with as part of the alternatives and else, the possibilities and see what.

If we're looking at replacing that.

Add a little extra zip to that.

And the parkway plan.

One of the last question you had.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm saying.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm concerned we're not going to make it.

So I need a before I call on vice chair, Gonzalez and then commissioner Harris.

We need a motion to extend beyond 730.

I'm going to go to that.

Thank you chair commissioner Harris.

Commissioner Gibson.

Commissioner do a Westberg.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that bridge.

I'm going to go to that bridge.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm going to go to that.

I'm sorry.

I have it reversed on my screen.

Are there any members?

I have two speakers.

I have two speakers.

I have the city to make the night sickles.

Eric Musisco has converted of their runs.

Madam Speaker is Matt Anderson.

I'm really excited to talk to you all two things I want to talk about.

First of all, to your point about sidewalks, I think that's a really important

situation and there are a lot of

two days ago the PMP had a discussion about the

situation.

It might be interesting to that active transportation

or as that happened it would be an interesting conversation to have.

I love giving staff things to do.

I would like to agree with Dan Allison but I was actually hoping

that the signal timing is one of the few tools.

A cost tool, the built environment that we're going to have.

There is a traffic

update happening now or it may have just happened.

Thank you very comment chair I have no more speakers.

Member comments ideas and questions any commissioners who wish to speak?

Commissioner door westbrook.

I thought I had one more meeting but I learned that this might be my last meeting tonight.

I just wanted to say it's been a pleasure serving alongside you all for the past four years.

We've been able to accomplish some really incredible work together, especially our annual report

which I think really brought to the forefront a lot of the needs that we have in our city to improve walking and biking.

I also want to give a special thanks to Jeff and Jennifer who have just been such a pleasure to work with.

I think we're one of the luckiest commissions in the city.

We just have such tremendous staff that are always here to answer our questions and are really very thoughtful in your responses.

It can be hard working in government.

I just wanted to thank you all.

While I might not be sitting up here with you I will definitely be in the audience.

My buddy is over there.

We're going away but again thank you so much and look forward to seeing who serves in this seat after me.

Here Harris.

I realized this might be my last meeting and had a whole series of emotions about that.

I'd have reapplied but I will say that you know if we get more people who are interested in and that replace us we get to cheer from the sidelines and I just want to say thank you so much.

I'm going to ask Jeff and the rest of the commission for listening to our repetitive pop button issues.

I wanted to also address the two action items I could follow up with my.

On the items I added to the log just to close the loop on those because they couldn't be added to the log as we talked about before.

There's federal regulations that require an accessible path of travel when it when existing of when existing well you have to have a mark cross walk and you have to have.

Get there and unfortunately at this point it doesn't appear to be any sort of.

I could come up with and so that would be something for us to continue to explore.

How do we safely designated spaces where we cannot get.

Concrete and then the other item we had talked about was.

Dialogue I took the action item regarding the.

I'm going to ask to injuries and my understanding is that that some are as quickly it varies depending on the type of injury the location.

And we can't direct staff however they may.

So which I appreciate.

I also have the sad honor of filling.

Shoes and.

Freeze.

But there was a 64 year old pedestrian who.

And I'm going to ask to ask to the.

I'm going to ask to the.

On November 6 at Bell and our what I believe that's right at the boundary of district one and.

42.

In my neighborhood.

Was hit on November 14.

And I'm going to ask to the.

Which makes it very.

We have three years to get to the goal of vision zero.

Yeah.

If this is indeed both of your last meetings.

I have only been here for now 10 meetings and you both have just provided tremendous equity centered comments comments like go beyond the scope but really should be considered in a lot of these presentations and the work that's being discussed.

And it will be they will be large shoes to fill from whoever takes your.

Thank you both in the short time.

I is this time where we put a log request in.

I have not done one.

It is an honor to do one on behalf of Dan Allison.

I request a log for staff to present on.

Signalized intersection determination.

Request a presentation from public work staff on traffic signal policy and major projects that affect walking crosswalks and vice seclists if I could.

I have gone over with you the request for log process it's absolutely fine to ask like this now.

For additional questions that we ask that you answer regarding equity and our mission state are you know.

Is the term I'm looking for my back.

I'm looking for the next couple of weeks since there is no December meeting we're not in the typical rush.

To get it in and.

I will be back in the next one.

I will be back in the next one.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I just want to start by just thank you for all their work this year.

Thank you my fellow commissioners for really.

I'm looking forward to working on our.

All the items that come before us.

Action or comments.

A little concern that there is some ambiguity about whose terms in tonight.

Harris according to the website right now your term ends in January 31st.

Then again commissioner Westbrook that's what it says about you as well.

So I'm not sure when you do or don't come back.

I'm not sure if you're going to come back.

I'm not sure if you're going to come back.

This is your term earns on New Year's day 2025.

This is your last meeting unless you've been reappointed.

Okay great.

Well the website has been updated.

So.

Yeah so I'm open you come back as well.

It's just and I just got one of these.

I think this is my last meeting too.

But I think I've been reappointed.

I don't know.

So that's it.

I wish we knew for certain so that we could say our goodbyes or say our.

So to that to that point.

If I am coming back I just wanted to share with this commission that I will be making a recommendation in January to continue.

And for another term our chair hotel for another term I found I'm so glad to have served with her as vice chair this year and I'm just impressed with her work and I know that she wants to serve again so I intend to make the motion.

I hope that you do serve again I hope it will be seconded.

If there isn't any thoughts otherwise I hope to get your support to continue service by share I've enjoyed working.

There and I hope to do it again next year assuming I'm coming back I don't know and I just before I wrap it up and say you know happy holidays Mary New Year.

Happy New Year.

I just want to congratulate commissioner.

I hope the birth of his new sign Kai who one day be one of our actor transportation users in the city and hopefully see all the things you talk about come to fruition.

Thank you.

I say no more hands up.

Oh yeah.

This concludes today's agenda thank you everyone for your participation.

Seriously if you don't come back really thank you and and this meeting is adjourned.
