Randy
hi,
michael.
F
N
G
A
B
Excellent,
am
I
as
well
motion
carries.
We
have
no
public
comment,
that's
been
submitted
for
today,
so
we'll
move
on
to
new
business
new
business.
The
first
item
is
review
of
the
changes
of
the
taking
and
presenting
of
minutes,
citywide,
jessica
and
amy.
O
You
will
no
longer
be
seeing
detailed
minutes,
as
you
have
been,
the
city
is
trying
to
be
more
efficient
with
staff
time,
and
so
what
will
serve
as
the
official
minutes
are
the
videos
that
will
be
archived
indefinitely
and
available
online
and
then
you'll
receive
an
an
action
minute
action
minute
in
your
agenda
and
that
will
have
links
to
the
time
point
where
each
item
is
discussed.
O
D
Michael,
so
I
I
love
that
the
video
is
going
to
be
incorporated
number
one,
but
the
only
concern
I
have
is:
what
happens
if
we
need
to
amend
minutes
for
the
record?
How
do
we?
How
do
we
go
back
and
fix?
D
I
guess
we
wouldn't
need
to.
Would
we
because
it's
just
all
there
never
mind?
That's
that's!
The
main
point.
Sorry
just
is
straight:
okay
thanks,
but.
C
I
think
I
think
the
only
thing
we
might
need
to
amend
michael
is
if
there
was
a
motion
or
something
like
that
or
an
action
item
that
wasn't
correctly
stated
in
the
printed
minute
or
if
we
actually
watched
the
video
and
there
was
something
a
glitch
or
something
in
that,
and
we
need
to
know
that,
so
it
is
possible.
This
will
be
an
amendment
to
the
minutes,
but
much
less
likely
now.
B
Jessica,
a
quick
question
so
once
we
do
go
back
hopefully,
when
we
do
go
back
to
in-person
meetings,
does
this?
Would
this
lead
us
to
believe
that
we're
going
to
have
video
going
forward.
O
A
Yeah
we
had
a
meeting
prior
to
when
we
were
supposed
to
go
back
to
in
person
and
it
is
going
to
be
live
streamed,
but
all
of
the
details
and
everything
are
still
trying
to
be
worked
out
with
that.
But
it
will
basically
be
the
same
thing.
Okay,.
B
Great
excellent
all
right!
The
next
item
is
the
discussion
over
combining
our
november
and
december
meetings
jointly
with
the
downtown
commission
jessica.
N
O
O
We
are
have
been
talking
about
having
a
joint
meeting
with
the
downtown
commission
and
they
are
they're
interested
in
doing
that.
And
so
what
we'd
like
to
do
is
have
a
meeting
in
probably
the
first
or
second
week
of
december,
likely
be
the
second
week
of
december
that
we
would
schedule
with
them,
and
you
guys
and
I'm
thinking
that
it'll
be
maybe
a
two
o'clock
start
again,
so
that
we'll
have
three
hours
to
meet
with
them.
O
O
So
what
I'm
thinking
would
be
most
efficient
is
for
us
to
set
out
send
out
a
doodle
poll
to
everybody
to
choose
a
day
of
the
week.
Since
it's
virtual,
we
don't
have
to
reserve
a
room
or
anything
which
makes
that
easier
and
we
could
just
find
the
best
day
for
the
most
people.
O
So
we'll
send
that
out.
For
the
first
week
of
december
and
the
second
week
of
december
as
options.
B
November
december
december
december,
perfect
excellent
yeah,
I'm
looking
forward
to
this.
I
think
this
is
a
great
idea.
I
like
the
idea
of
introducing
this,
and
so
we
can
get
that
doodle
and
we
can
all
get
on
the
same
page
here
and
hopefully
most
of
us
can
make
it.
B
B
O
I
was
just
going
to
say:
the
focus
of
the
needing
is
generally
going
to
be
on
what
we
have
been
calling
public
space
management
downtown,
so
things
that
fall
under
that
include
parklets,
shared
streets,
sidewalk,
stuff,
sidewalk,
encroachment
types
of
things,
and
and
we
would
present
the
draft
public
space
management
plan.
We'd,
probably
present
information
about
lessons
learned
and
and
constraints
that
we've
seen
with
our
asheville
share
space
program,
and
then
we
would
seek
to
get
some
feedback
and
input
from
both
groups
on
how
to
move
forward.
B
Perfectly
dovetails
into
our
one
of
our
some
of
our
output
from
the
retreat
last
month.
So
that's
excellent.
Maggie.
B
I
Is
that
and
we've
come
to
the
shared
observation
that
when
it
comes
to
downtown
the
starting
assumption
when
sharing
public
space
is
that
the
last
user
experience
to
compromise
is
parking
and
the
first
user
experience
to
compromise
is
pedestrian,
and
we
want
to
kind
of
make
a
recommendation
for
the
conversation
that
we
have
with
the
group
boards
that,
when
designing
the
downtown
shared
space,
guidance
and
policy
or
whatever,
that
we
split
that,
and
we
say
the
top
priority
is
pedestrians,
because
that
everyone
is
a
pedestrian
at
some
point,
whether
you're
walking
to
your
car
or
what
have
you
and
you're
just
a
pedestrian,
even
if
you
are
in
your
wheelchair
and
it
kind
of
falls
into
that
category.
I
So
I
just
want
to
share
like
some
of
the
side
conversation
that
y'all
have
not
delegated
that
some
of
us
volunteered
to
have
and
where
that's
been
going.
Because
do
you
think
that
could
help
from
a
community
leader
standpoint
for
us
to
discuss
and
have
that
kind
of
absorb
as
they
come
up
with
things,
and
I
know
joe
and
michael
have
been
part
of
those
conversations
anything
you
want
to
add
as
we
kind
of
roll
this
conversation
forward
yeah,
I
love
that
randy
most
vulnerable
should
always
be
the
top
priority.
I
agree.
D
The
only
thing
I'll
add
maggie
is
that
you
know
I
think
we've
got
a
lot
of
momentum
that
we've
we've
got
our
disposal
at
this
point.
You
know
we
had
this.
This
group,
along
with
members
of
the
downtown
commission,
had
had
basically
done
a
pilot
program
downtown
to
create
these
public
spaces
to
make
make
them
more
safe
during
covid,
and
it
seems
that
you
know
they
were
pretty
well
received,
and
with
that
in
mind,
we
should
figure
out
what
it
is
that
we
need
to
do
to
carry
them
forward.
D
B
All
right
so
we'll
get
that
doodle
coming
forward
and
then
we'll
figure
out
a
thing
that
works
for
us.
The
next
item
is
introduction
of
our
new
traffic
engineer,
christopher
carnes,
from
jessica.
O
Thank
you.
I
am
so
so
very
happy
to
present
to
you
guys
and
introduce
our
new
traffic
engineer,
christopher
karns
I'll.
Let
him
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
his
background.
I
think
he's
been
here
for
maybe
two
months
fish.
I
can't
remember
time
flies
so
chris.
You
want
to
tell
everyone
about
yourself
for
a
few
minutes
sure.
P
I
don't
know
if
I
can
go
for
a
few
minutes,
but
I
I
started
early
august.
I
come
from
florida,
I've
I've
been
in
civil
engineering
for
since
1992
traffic
engineering,
since
the
late
90s,
and
I
was
with
the
florida
dot
for
about
24
years
in
various
roles
and
then
the
last
four
years.
I
was
in
a
very
similar
role
in
as
the
city
transportation
engineer
for
orlando,
which
has
a
lot
of
challenges
when
it
comes
to
multimodal
practices.
P
I
learned
a
lot
of
lessons
at
dot
on
what
not
to
do
and
I'm
just
being
honest
and
florida
dot
is
actually
transitioning
to
try
to
actually
work
toward
complete
streets.
There's
a
lot
to
a
lot
of
work.
To
do,
but
that's
that's.
My
mindset
is
try
to
slow
things
down,
try
to
make
it
more
friendly
for
cyclists,
pedestrians
and
transit
riders,
and
I
do
ride
a
bike
regularly.
I
will
say
that
coming
to
the
hilly
area
here
has
been
a
challenge,
so
my
mileage
has
gone
way
way
down.
B
Well,
welcome
that's
great
great
great
to
have
you.
Anybody
have
any
comments
for
chris
starting
off.
I
mean
yeah
yeah
randy,
please.
P
Mostly
chris,
but
a
lot
of
people
call
me
christopher,
that's
good
too.
C
Whatever
you
prefer
so
yeah,
we're
super
excited
to
have
you
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
change
over.
As
you
probably
know
in
this
position,
I've
been
in
asheville
for
six
and
a
half
years
now
and
I
think
you're
the
fourth
traffic
engineer
in
that
time
period.
So
we're
super
glad
to
have
someone
in
the
position
and
I've
changed
my
mentality
to
having
you
know
like
this
is,
I
would
move
here.
This
is
my
lifetime
home
from
now
on,
and
I
keep
thinking
that
other
people
think
the
same
thing.
C
That's
not
always
the
case.
So
we're
glad
that
you're
here
and
if
you
stay
forever,
that's
fantastic,
and
if
you
don't
it
doesn't
matter
because
we're
just
glad
that
you're
you're
here
and
and
in
that
role,
because
staffing
is
such
a
huge
issue
and
your
position
is
so
crucial.
So
much
that
we
do,
because
when
we
need
to
ask
someone
about
an
on
the
street
kind
of
thing,
you
know
we
want
to
have
someone
who's,
a
go-to
person
and
the
fact
that
you
have
a
background.
C
I
had
my
brother
used
in
orlando
and
I've
done
a
fair
amount
of
writing
in
the
area
is
as
horrible
as
it
is
in
some
ways.
It
also
has
a
number
of
things
that
are
relatively
innovative
and
good
there,
as
well
too
and
in
ways
that
were
forward
thinking,
even
if
it
was
hard
to
implement
in
this
situation.
So
I
like
that
at
least
you
have
that
experience
of
trying
to
make
things
work
in
a
situation
that
wasn't
designed
necessarily
to
have
accommodate
bike.
C
So
here's
a
little
bit
different
because
the
topography
will
give
you
more
fits
than
than
maybe
the
high
tea
roadways
that
you're
dealing
with
a
lot
of
times
there.
But
so
I
think
my
brother
lives
in
college
park,
for
example,
and
he
does
some
great
things
in
that
which
is
more
of
a
neighborhood
type
community.
That
is
very
much
like
africa.
So
easy
again.
We're
just
really
excited
to
have
you
here
and
you're,
probably
hearing
from
us
a
lot.
So
that's
why
I
don't
know
how
to
address
you.
B
Yeah
definitely
on
board,
and
we're
really
excited
to
have
some
folks
that
can
you
can
bring
some
of
that
learning
that
you
have,
and
that's
that's
really.
What
we
need
is
to
lean
on
folks
like
that
as
much
as
possible,
joe.
L
Yeah
chris
just
wanted
to
say,
welcome
and
you'll,
I'm
sure
I'll
probably
be
seeing
you
on
the
the
other
role
that
I
do
with
with
planning
and
zoning,
because
everybody's
always
asking
about
traffic.
Why
do
we
have
to
have
more
traffic?
L
So
hopefully
you
can
set
them
straight,
but
yeah
welcome
aboard,
and
you
know,
if
you
haven't
heard
about
it,
I
would
be
remiss
and
if
I
didn't
mention
that
asheville
on
bikes
is
having
their
big
annual
halloween
ride
on
saturday,
so
be
a
great
way
to
come
out
and
meet
a
bunch
of
people
in
the
cycling
community.
B
Yes,
masks
are
welcome
all
right.
Well,
welcome
again,
chris
good
to
have
you.
B
Take
care?
Okay.

next

work
and
hopefully
have
some
time
for
discussion.
Q
Okay,
so
this
is
the
mission
statement
for
the
office
that
we
formulated
a
few
months
ago.
The
office
has
been
in
existence
for
since
since
march,
really,
which
is
when
natalie
and
cameron
joined.
Q
Or
something
like
that,
and
I
want
to
kind
of
emphasize
three
things
in
this
statement,
and
the
first
is
that
word
empowered.
You
know.
One
one
model
that
you
might
use
for
an
office
of
data
and
performance
is
kind
of
the
we're
the
shop
that
you
bring
your
request
to,
and
we
get
you
the
data
and
do
an
analysis
for
you,
and
that
would
be
great,
but
not
with
three
people.
So
our
model
is
really
to
enable
others
to
do
the
work
and
and
and
that
kind
of
leads
me
to
the
second
piece.
Q
Who
are
we
trying
to
enable?
And
it's
really,
we
don't
consider
ourselves
just
an
internal
service
department.
Q
We
obviously
are
wanting
to
make
a
difference
in
in
staff's
ability
to
use
data
to
make
sure
that
we're
doing
the
right
thing
and
getting
the
right
results,
but
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
making
a
difference
in
the
community's
ability
to
advocate
for
themselves
using
data
so
really
facing
in
both
directions
in
everything
we
do
and
then
the
last
is
kind
of
what
it's
for,
and
the
center
of
that
is
accountability.
Q
R
All
right,
so,
on
this
slide,
we
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
ways
in
which
we
work,
and
so
we
work
in
a
couple
of
ways
and
I
will
touch
on
the
first
two
public
engagement
and
reporting,
and
this
really
is
about
developing
a
shared
language
for
the
public
and
for
staff
internally,
that
is
grounded
in
data
for
the
public,
especially
this
is
really
about
making
sure
that
they
understand
how
we're
doing
things
and
why
we're
doing
them
using
that
common
language
and
helping
them
to
define
what
success
looks
like
on
city
projects
and
initiatives
and
and
that's
that's,
the
second
bullet
right,
creating
ways
for
the
community
to
participate
in
defining
on
the
success
of
programs
and
services.
R
We
want
all
of
our
decisions
to
be
grounded
with
data,
and
so
we
have
an
integrated
process
that
is
making
its
way
into
all
of
our
city
processes
and,
most
notably,
we
use
this
process
in
the
budget
process
process.
Excuse
me,
which
was
a
collaborative
effort
between
odap
and
our
community
engagement,
folks
and
budget
and
equity,
and
so
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
eric.
So
he
can
give
you
more
insight
into
that
process
and
and
how
we
went
about
it.
Q
Well,
I'm
I'm
not
going
to
go
deep
into
the
budget
itself,
limited
time
and
probably
limited
interest
in
in
all
the
details,
but
I
so
I've
been
with
the
city
of
asheville
and
in
government
for
five
years,
and
one
of
the
things
I
learned
pretty
quickly
is
that
if
it's
not
tied
into
a
standard
process,
it's
not
going
to
happen
in
a
sustainable
way.
And
of
course
the
premier
process
in
a
municipality
is
the
is
the
annual
budget.
Q
And
so
we
want
to
make
sure
if
we're
going
to
have
staff
change,
how
they
do
what
they
do.
Then
we
need
to
enable
that
by
making
sure
that
it's
plugged
into
their
regular
workflow-
and
that
is
the
budget
we're
looking
at
when
we're.
When
we're
making
a
budget
decision,
we
want
to
make
sure
we're
using
data
to
prioritize.
Q
Q
Q
Q
We
do
sort
of
a
combination
of
training,
deep
dive,
training
and
facilitation
for
teams
or
divisions
that
are
working
on
particular
projects,
and
we
also
maintain
an
internal
newsletter
that
comes
out
twice
a
month,
a
discussion
channel
and
a
collaboration
group
cross-departmental
collaboration
group
that
meets
once
a
month
to
bring
shared
challenges
and
and
try
and
bring
the
brain
power
of
other
groups
in
the
city
with
other
perspectives
to
bear,
and
I'm
not
going
to
talk
a
lot
about
governance
because,
frankly,
it's
not
the
most
exciting
of
all
the
things
we
do,
but
it
is
also
it's
really
foundational.
Q
You
need
to
make
sure
that
you
have
data
systems
that
get
you
data.
That's
up
to
date.
You
need
to
make
sure
you
have
processes
in
place
to
make
sure
that
that
data
is
complete
and
accurate,
and
you
also
need
to
make
sure
that
you
are
protecting
yourselves
yourself,
both
against
malicious
actors
and
that's
a
big
deal
nowadays.
Q
Q
It
is
unfortunately
easy
to
use
data
in
ways
that
might
seem
great
at
first,
but
then
turn
out
to
to
have
adverse
effects
on
on
people
either,
because
we're
sharing
data
that
we
shouldn't
be
sharing,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
never
happens,
but
also
because
the
way
data
is
driving,
things
might
not
be
accounting
for,
for
some.
Q
M
Q
Let
me
hand
it
back
to-
or
I
guess,
I'm
going
to
keep
on
talking
a
little
bit
about
some
of
the
specific
efforts,
not
handing
it
back
yet.
Q
Q
The
city
is
looking
to
invest
significant
resources
in
addressing
our
houselessness
issues,
and
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
both
reporting
out
what's
going
on
there
in
terms
of
actual
impact
and
as
we
undertake
new
initiatives
that
we're
able
to
kind
of
name
what
those
initiatives
are
trying
to
accomplish
and
be
able
to
report
on
on
how
they're
doing
we're
providing
data
support
for
the
reparations
process,
basically
by
gathering
baseline
data.
Q
That
is
a
resource
for
the
commission
that
will
form
as
well
as
for
the
community,
and
we
kind
of
generally
are
a
partner
to
equity,
wherever
we
can
be
in
making
sure
that
we're
providing
them
with
data
support
and
we'll
we're
involved
in
lots
of
specific
initiatives.
I've
talked
about
the
budget
process.
Q
In
the
american
rescue
plan
act
funding
and
how
that's
used
evaluating
categories,
evaluating
proposals
and
eventually
tracking
the
performance
of
whoever
gets
the
money,
we've
worked
with
the
business
inclusion.
I
talked
about
our
capacity
building
and
governance
a
little
bit
and
let
me
get
it
back
now.
Finally,
to
talk
about
some
of
what
we're
doing
here.
Obviously,
but
more
broadly,
our
community
engagement.
R
So,
yes,
we
have
an
engagement
program
that
we
are
currently
involved
in
and
rolling
out,
and
this
engagement
process
actually
began
back
in
the
spring
and
it
basically
was
you
know,
centered.
On
benchmarking,
we
spoke
with
community
leaders,
neighborhood
leaders,
folks
that
provide
services
in
the
advocacy
community
to
our
residents
and
neighbors
and
other
stakeholders,
and
those
questions
really
were
surrounded
on
barriers
to
city
services
or
perceived
barriers
to
city
services,
and
so
a
lot
of
people
might
think
you
know.
Why
are
you
you're
the
data
folks?
R
Why
are
you
doing
any
type
of
engagement
and
that's
because
it's
important
to
actually
speak
with
folks
to
gather
that
day
when
they
need
it?
You
know,
relationship
building
goes
a
long
way
and
all
aspects
of
public
service
work,
and
this
is
no
different
and
that
narrative
data
is
important
because
it's
still
data
and
it
often
informs
the
baseline
and
leads
us
to
ask
the
questions
internally
about
whether
the
metrics
that
we
need
to
look
at
and
examine
and
and
what's
important
to
the
community.
So
this
is
a
part
of
that
effort.
R
You
know
this
is
our
road
show.
We
spoken
to
a
couple
of
city
boards
and
commissions,
and
we
wanted
to
introduce
ourselves
to
you
all
in
particular,
because
you
all
are
engaged
in
city
government
at
a
level
that
a
lot
of
folks
aren't,
and
so
we
want
to.
Let
you
know
that
we're
here
what
we're
doing,
but
we
also
want
to
let
you
know
that
we
want
to
be
a
resource
in
providing
tools
to
you
all
that
you
could
use
as
you
carry
out
your
own
work
here
on
this
particular
commission.
So.
R
Q
So
when
we're
talking
about
tools
which
sounds
technical,
it's
it's
amazing.
How
little
of
what
we
do
is
actually
technical.
It's
more
about
clear
thinking
and
if
you're
trying
to
change
how
you
do
what
you
do,
you
want
to
make
sure
that
you've
got
some
structure
around
around
trying
to
do
that.
We
we've
adopted
something
called
results-based
accountability
as
a
framework
for
thinking
about
performance
and
how
we
use
data
to
manage
that
performance.
Q
It's
it's
being
used
all
over
the
country,
but
in
particular
locally.
In
fact,
I
was
on
a
meeting
and
having
to
do
with
criminal
justice
today
and
rba
popped
up,
so
we're
seeing
it
in
education
and
health
care
and
criminal
justice,
and
it
it
seemed
obvious
from
that
standpoint.
It
also
is
the
foundation
for
the
racial
equity
toolkit
that
the
city
has
adopted
from
the.
Q
The
the
full
process
has
seven
we've
kind
of
boiled
it
down
to
these
four
questions,
and
I
wanted
to
share
this
with
you,
because
I
think
this
is
a
tool
that
you
can
use
in
your
own
work
and
it
starts
by
saying:
okay,
if
we're
going
to
do
something.
Q
Q
You
know
hard
numbers
in
some
cases
it
is
based
more
on
narrative
data,
and
that
can
be
important
too
one
of
the
most
interesting
things
to
me
about
rba
is
you
know
it's
normal
when
you're
starting
out
measuring
to
say
we
need
to
get
a
baseline?
We
need
to
know
where
we're
starting
from
which
rba
obviously
does
as
well.
Q
It
takes
it
one
step
further
to
say:
where
are
we
now
and
what
will
happen
if
we
don't
change
anything
so
we're
really
trying
to
project
forward?
If
we
don't
do
anything
different,
is
it
going
to
get
better?
Is
it
going
to
get
worse?
What
does
that
mean?
How
do
we
measure
it?
You
know
how?
How
will
that
be
reflected
in
those
performance
measures,
and
that
allows
us
to
do
two
things?
It
allows
us
to
ask
given
all
the
challenges
that
we
face.
Q
Is
it
important
that
we
address
this
one
a
priority
issue?
Maybe
we
look
at
where
we
think
it's
going
to
go,
and
we
say
if
we
had
lots
of
resources,
we
would
work
on
this,
but
maybe
it's
not
the
most
important,
it's
okay.
Q
If
it
stays
at
that
level-
or
maybe
we
say
no
we're
going
to
work
on
this-
and
rather
than
kind
of
arbitrarily
setting
a
target-
which
is
what
a
lot
of
performance
frameworks
have
you
do
we're
going
to
achieve
a
thirty
percent
in
redux
reduction
in
whatever
it
is
we're
really
looking
at
what's
the
trend
and
how
are
we
trying
to
bend
the
curve
up
or
down
whatever
is
appropriate,
so
we're
really
focused
on
improvement
rather
than
just
targets.
Targets
are
easy
to
fail.
Q
Improvement
is
something
that
you
can
work
toward
and
one,
and
then
you
go
into
the
strategies.
Okay,
here's
what's
going
to
happen.
If
we
do
nothing,
what
are
we
going
to
try
and
a
a
really
important
part
of
rb
is
just
make
this
an
iterative
process.
We
are
going
to
try
this
we're
going
to
see
if
it
has
the
impact
we
expect
it
to
have,
and
if
it
doesn't
we're
going
to
go
back
and
say
we're
not
doing
as
well
as
we
want
to
on
these
performance
measures.
Q
I
Q
Things
we're
working
on
are
hard,
as
certainly
you
all
in
this
particular
commission
know
well,
and
there
are
things
that
play
out
over
years,
and
so
you
don't
want
to
wait
10
years
to
find
out
if
you
succeeded.
So
a
lot
of
this
is
thinking.
How
are
we
going
to
know
along
the
line.
Q
Q
Are
questions
that
you
can
be
asking
staff
we
want
to
be
held
accountable,
and
this
gives
us
a
structure
for
saying:
okay,
what
are
the
results
you're
trying
to
achieve?
How
are
you
measuring
them,
etc?
You
all
in
this
particular
group
are
probably
ahead
of
many
in
the
city
in
terms
of
having
lots
of
data
and
some
good
standard
ways
of
looking
at
some
of
the
issues,
but
we
can
always
all
do
better
and
then
the
third
way
that
I
would
love
for
you
all
to
use.
Q
So
we're
going
to
share
through
your
lays
on
this
presentation-
and
there
are
links
in
there
to
some
resources,
there's
going
to
be
starting
this
next
month,
we'll
have
a
newsletter
going
out
the
asheville
data
news,
and
you
can
also
look
on
our
page.
We
we
try
and
keep
that
up
to
date
with
what
we're
working
on
on
a
pretty
regular
basis,
and
obviously
you
can
also
feel
free
to
reach
out.
R
All
right,
so
here's
the
discussion
portion
and
we've
got
three
questions
up,
but
I
really
always
like
to
hear
from
folks
on
the
last
question
regarding
what
are
some
of
the
ways
that
you
that
the
office
of
david
for
performance
can
support
you
in
your
work,
but
with
this
particular
group,
I'd
also
like
to
only
you
know,
number
two
which,
as
you
can
see,
is
how
could
you
measure
the
impact
of
your
own
work,
because
I
know
you
all
are
all
very
involved
in
your
assignments
on
this
particular
commission,
and
you
know
the
work
that
you
all
do
touches
of
the
vast
majority
of
all
of
us
that
live
and
work
here.
R
So
I'm
gonna
stop
sharing
my
screen
and
hopefully
we
can
open
this
up
for
a
discussion.
M
C
So
yeah,
I
think
you
said
you're
a
three-person
office,
and
so
you
can
only
do
so
much,
but
there's
so
much
that
we
could
use
your
help
in
in
so
many
different
ways.
So,
for
example,
I
I
live
just
a
couple
blocks
off
hendersonville
road
and
you
know
it
just
gets
busier
missing
and
busier.
You
know
all
the
time
and
actually
keeps
growing
growing
growing.
C
It
seems
like
we
don't
have
any
appetite
for
constraining
the
growth
in
nashville
whatsoever,
and
so
when
we
look
at
our
multimodal
transportation
options,
we
really
see
that
as
being
a
solution
to
some
of
the
problems
that
are
being
caused
by
growth.
C
But
the
data
would
be
helpful
to
us
to
have
things
like
if
we
continue
in
the
current
rate
of
growth
and
then,
if
we're
having
these
many
housing
developments,
both
in
the
city
and
outside
they
see
like
several,
has
been
added
that
are
approved
for
arden,
which
is
going
to
beat
into
asheville,
and
things
like
that
too.
You
know
how
much
busier,
for
example,
is
henderson
the
world.
I
mean
I
have
to
wait
over
three
minutes
right
now
to
even
take
my
son
to
school.
C
Every
single
day
I
waste
a
day
a
year
waiting
a
traffic
light
to
get
out
of
my
neighborhood
one
full
day
a
year
waiting
that
traffic
light,
because
ncdot
feels
unnecessary,
that
I
wait
there
for
three
and
a
half
minutes
for
every
single
time.
I
pull
up
the
intersection
and,
and-
and
so
that's
just
you
know-
impacts
everybody
who
tries
to
get
on
this
little
road
there.
But
it
is
the
kind
of
thing
that
we
could
say.
You
know
how
much
busier
yet
is
hendersonville
going
to
be
or
any
other
road.
C
You
know
what
real
life
effects
would
happen
now
that
takes
a
lot
of
more
expertise.
You
know
than
just
collecting
data,
but
that's
the
kind
of
thing
that
would
be
really
really
useful
to
us
that
we
could
show
if
we
demonstrate
you
know,
even
a
two
percent
reduction
in
traffic
by
encouraging
specific
multimodal
strategies.
That
would
be
huge
in
terms
of
the
impact.
Q
So
I
obviously
weren't
I
we
just
got
introduced
to
a
traffic
engineer,
welcome
to
the
city
by
the
way
chris.
That
is
so,
I
think,
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
how
to
best
put
this,
because
obviously
there
you
take
that
particular
issue,
multiply
it
several
fold
just
for
transportation
issues
and
then
multiply
that
by
all
the
all
the
other
things
that
the
city
does
and
it's
beyond
our
capacity.
Q
On
the
other
hand,
that's
exactly
the
kind
of
area
where
we
would
love
to
work
with
the
transportation
department
and
you
to
prioritize
which
of
these
things
we
might
do
and
maybe
help
figure
out
how
to
do
some
of
that
stuff.
So
there's
gonna
have
to
be
some
prioritization.
Obviously,
but-
and
there
may
well
be
you
know,
in
some
cases
you
want
to
do
something
really
sophisticated
like
you
want
to
actually
model
out
for
the
city
of
asheville
in
particular
streets.
How
that's
going
to
work.
We.
Q
The
expertise
to
do
that
we
would
have
to
bring
in
either
folks
in
the
transportation
department
or
outside
consultants,
but
what
we
could
help
you
with
is
maybe
formulating
some
of
those
questions.
Identifying
research
that's
out
there,
so
that
maybe
we
don't
have
to
go
out
and
repeat
the
work,
so
I
think
finding
ways
to
support
you
in
the
process.
Q
We
may
not
necessarily
be
the
ones
to
do
the
analysis
or
get
the
data
or
anything
else,
but
we
will
work
with
transportation
and
you,
you
know,
if
we're
invited
in
to
figure
out
the
best
way
to
to
identify
that
data
figure
out
some
ways
that
could
be
collected,
maybe
figure
out
how
to
do
some
of
the
modeling.
So
we
would
love
to
do
that
kind
of
project.
I
I
want
to
be
careful
not
to
commit
to
yes,
we
will
do
that
just
because
that's
got
to
go
through
a
process.
I
I
Otherwise
we
don't
know
what's
changing,
and
so
I'm
very
excited
that
we
have
this
office
natalie
you
again,
we
overlapped
a
little
bit
while
I
was
at
the
city,
so
yay
keep
up
the
good
work
like
let's
get
like.
Let's
get
this
even
bigger,
because
I
think
this
is
a
gap
that
we
have
and
a
connection
to
our
work
that
I
was
thinking
about.
I'm
kind
of
looking
back
to
my
fellow
commissioners
now
is
that
we
just
had
our
retreat,
where
we
set
four
goals
for
the
year
and,
like
it'd,
be
really
cool.
I
If
one
of
the
first
things
you
do,
this
group
is
like
come
up
with
a
metric
like
what
did
that
look
like
and
maybe
partnering
with
this
office,
to
help
with
that,
because
I
don't
think
it's
as
easy
as
fight
serve
like
it
might
be
more
complicated,
but
that
might
be
a
place
eric
where
your
team
could
help
us
like
you're,
saying
like
looking
to
what
those
best
practices
are,
because
we
all
are
just
coming
out
of
deciding
that
we
want
to
collaboratively
work
on
these
four
areas,
and
it
would
be
really
great
for
us
to
start
doing
that
and
then
a
second
thought,
which
was
just
kind
of
maybe
a
question
is:
do
you
imagine,
as
your
work
continues,
that
we
will
get
to
a
point
where
the
city
manager
on
an
annual
basis
can
say
these?
I
Are
the
10
mega
metrics
that
we're
tracking
for
our
community
and
feeling
healthier
because
and
safer,
because
and
that
type
of
thing,
because
I
think
that
missing
for
folks
like
us,
who
do
put
a
lot
of
time
into
commissions
having
that
feedback
loop
of
data
at
the
big
picture
level
helps
us
go.
Oh
right
we're
supporting
the
comp
plan
and
here's
the
metric
that
we
want
to
be
keeping
in
mind
like
it's
another
part
of
the
planning
puzzle.
That's
missing
right
now,
so
I
hope
that
we
can
support
you
all
in
getting
towards
that.
Q
So
you
are
singing
our
song,
yes
and,
and
if
miss
campbell
has
anything
to
do
with
it,
the
answer
will
be
a
resounding
yes,
because
I
know
that
that
is
something
that
she
valued
highly
in
charlotte
having
those
community
level
quality
of
life
indicators
is
what
they're
often
called
and
doing
it
in
so
one
of
the
things
we're
we're
doing.
Our
2022
planning
right
now
is
an
office,
and
one
of
the
things
that
we're
talking
about
is
how
do
we
do
all
of
this
kind
of
within
the
context?
Q
Let's
take
the
comp
plan
that
gives
us
what
the
areas
are,
and
we
have
some
good
first
pass,
metrics
that
we
can
start
to
look
at
that
are
in
the
comp
plan,
not
considering
that
the
necessarily
where
we
end
up,
but
it
gives
us
you
know
some
initial
thinking
and
we
start
to
build
out
the
quality
of
life
indicators,
ideally
getting
that
down
to
the
neighborhood
level,
which
I
know
deborah
campbell
campbell
is
very
interested
in
doing
so,
that's
going
to
be
a
process,
I
think
one
of
the
in
my
somewhat
brief,
but
not
as
brief
as
some
people's
time
with
the
city.
Q
I
have
seen
some
we're
going
to
do
everything
all
at
once.
Initiatives
come
out
and
they
very
predictably
tend
to
fail,
and
so
part
of
our
focus
is
to
say:
okay,
we
know
where
we
want
to
go
and
you
can
find
kind
of
our
long-term
goals
on
the
website.
We
know
what
we
want
to
be
true
in
the
future.
Q
What
can
we
do
this
year?
What
can
we
do
next
year
to
take
another
step,
and
so
what
you're
talking
about
muslim
is
is
exactly
where
we
want
to
go,
and
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
what
we
do
in
year.
One
is
something
that
we
can
actually
sustainably
continue
and
and
build
on
year
to
year.
So
that's
very
much
how
we've
done
the
budget
process.
We
did
a
very
tiny
bite
last
year,
we're
taking
a
pretty
big
step.
I
think
this
year.
Q
The
other
thing
I
would
I
would
emphasize
that
I
think
is-
is
central
to
how
we
operate
and
also,
I
think,
a
really
good
thing.
Generally.
Q
There
is
very
little
that
the
office
of
data
and
performance
does,
by
itself
we're
doing
the
budget
together
with
the
budget
department
and
the
equity
department
and
community
communications,
and
public
engagement
and
planning
is
coming
in
on
on
that
pretty
much
everything
we
do
we're
doing
in
partnership
with
departments
or
other
internal
functions,
because
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
change
how
the
city
operates
and
therefore
it
can't
be
well
oduk.
Does
this
odep
does
that
it
has
to
be
collectively?
We
we
find
ways
to
change
our
collective
behavior.
B
D
Well,
I
just
I
don't
know
if
there's
anybody
else
that
wants
to
to
comment,
but
I
I'm
just
thinking
that
it's
a
the
stars
seem
to
have
aligned
on
today's
agenda
with
the
introduction
of
odap,
as
well
as
our
new
traffic
engineer,
the
presentation
that
I'm
going
to
be
giving
here
in
a
minute.
It's
got
a
surprise
to
ask
for
this
commission,
and
apparently
your
team,
I
think,
could
be
really
involved.
Q
I
will
look
forward
to
it
excellent
well
before
I
go
on
just
other
questions.
B
Well,
I'd
like
to
thank
the
three
of
you
for
for
coming
today.
You
know
it's
really
helpful.
It's
always
good
for
us
to
kind
of
understand
what
our
capacities
are.
When
I
think
about
the
work
that
we
do
and
you
you
all
it
sounds
like
you
have
some
fairly.
You
know
good
background
within
the
city.
The
work
that
we
do
on
this
commission
often
is
you
know,
we're
thinking
about.
How
do
we
in
you
know?
How
do
we
handle
a
road
diet?
B
How
do
we
handle
getting
a
safe
bike
lane
in
there?
Do
you
see
your
role
more
as
a
reactive
or
proactive?
You
know
some
of
these
things
like
we
do.
We
want
to
track
metrics
over
time
or
we
say
okay,
we're
starting
at
zero,
and
we,
if
we
have
a
thousand
folks
using
this
path,
that
is
success
and
year,
one
we've
minimized
vehicle
traffic
on
that
lane
or
something
like
how
do
you
see
us
setting
that
up?
Is
that
something?
Q
I
think
that
is
so.
I
don't.
I
can't
answer,
I
think,
that's
a
conversation
to
be
had
with
the
staff,
that's
liaison
to
your
committee
and
kind
of
figuring
out
how
that
plays
in,
and
a
lot
of
this
may
be
just
teaching
here's
how
to
think
about
it,
and
in
other
cases
it
may
be
we're
going
to
provide
some
technical
assistance.
Q
I
do
want
to
kind
of
jump
on.
One
word
that
you
use,
and
I
see
cameron
smiling
because
he
knows
what
I'm
about
to
say.
N
Q
How
do
we
help
the
organization
really
get
more
proactive
and
a
lot
of
the
rba
stuff
is
about
doing
the
planning
in
advance
and
getting
yourself
set
up
so
that
you're
doing
experiments
you're
learning
instead
of
setting
something
in
motion
and
then
kind
of
reacting
as
things
go
wrong,
so
that
proactive
part
is,
is
really
one
of
the
things
we're
really
trying
to
help
the
city
do
better.
Q
B
Sounds
great,
you
know
we
we
are
privy
to
you
know
we
have
these
these
folks
that
are
contracted
to
the
city
that
come
in
and
give
us
these
really
detailed,
in-depth
plans
about
how
to
go
about
these
fairly
complex
challenges
and
have
your
participation
in
that
to
provide
some
type
of
data
overlaid
either
to
verify
some
of
the
information
that
we're
getting
from
them
or
to
provide
some
additional
insight
into
as
to
how
this
works,
maybe
maybe
they're
using
some
national
numbers
and
it's
a
little
bit
different
for
our
region
or
our
area,
so
that
type
of
thing
would
be
really
helpful.
B
An
additional
thing.
I
think
I
think
you
could
offer
some
insight
on
is
we
have
neighborhoods
in
our
community
that
are
geographically
undesirable
for
some
of
the
the
projects
they
want
to
do.
They're
very
expensive
and
they've
been
maligned
they've
been
you
know,
kind
of
sidelined
in
some
some
situations,
and
so
it
might
be
more
expensive
for
us
to
connect
with
these
folks
and
connect
with
these
communities.
B
But
I
think
in
the
long
term
we
are
a
better
city
when
we're
able
to
do
that,
and
I
think
that's
some
of
the
insight
that
maybe
you
could
bring
your
team
could
bring
in
to
us
to
help
us
understand
that.
Yes,
it's
a
little
bit
more
expensive
to
do
it
this
way,
but
those
folks,
the
folks
that
are
in
that
community
may
not
have
any
access
to
the
city
right
now
and
it's
our
job
to
make
sure
that
everyone
has
equal
access
to
our
city
and
the
resources.
B
Well,
we
really
appreciate
your
coming
in
today
and
you
know.
B
Kind
of
you
know
gave
us
a
little
insight
if
you
want
to
hang
around.
There
might
be
some
some
interesting
next
steps,
so
without
any
other
further
questions
you
want
to
answer
the
questions
all
right,
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
item.
Michael
we're.
Gonna
present.
We
have
a
presentation
for
us
on
the
thompson
street
open
streets.
B
D
All
right
so
recently,
on
the
16th
of
this
month,
the
oakley
neighborhood
association,
in
partnership
with
aarp
and
asheville
bikes,
had
an
opportunity
to
do
what's
known
as
an
open
streets
day.
D
So
for
those
of
you
that
don't
know
open
streets
as
according
to
the
openstreetproject.org,
here's
like
the
long
ride
up
of
it,
but
in
essence
what
it
is
is
you're
closing
down
a
street,
that's
normally,
let's
just
say,
inaccessible
or
unfriendly
to
bike
and
pedestrian
traffic,
and
you
close
it
down
to
vehicular
traffic,
and
you
really
try
to
create
a
space.
D
That's
very
inviting
and
welcoming
to
people
to
utilize
a
space
in
a
capacity
that
they
normally
wouldn't
have
the
opportunity
to
do
so
before
I
get
into
the
actual
event
itself.
I'd
like
to
just
give
you
a
little
bit
of
a
background
about
who
put
this
on.
This
was
one
second,
I
I'm
gonna
put
this
oh.
D
One
second,
so
I'll,
let
you
look
at
this
while
I
talk
about
it,
but
basically
the
background
on
this
is
a
community
driven
situation.
D
We
did
have
a
lot
of
support
from
asheville
bikes
and
an
arp
as
I've
mentioned,
but
in
essence
our
community
is
is,
is
oakley
the
neighborhood,
it's
roughly
seven
thousand
households
in
in
the
jurisdiction.
So
it's
a
really
large
neighborhood
in
asheville.
D
Some
characteristics
there
that
are
pretty
interesting.
You
can
see
in
this
picture
that
the
swannanoa
river
is
is
here
that
that
constitutes
one
of
our
borders.
We're
also
surrounded
on
both
sides
by
railroads
road
tracks,
as
well
as
40
and
240,
so
we're
pretty
hyped
in
neighborhood
and
in
2015,
some
of
the
zoning
in
asheville
and
particularly
for
rs8
zoning
had
changed.
D
So
in
essence,
what
you
had
is
in
the
past
previously,
the
minimum
lot
size
to
build
on
was
5000
square
feet.
The
zoning
had
changed
in
2015
to
make
it
4
000
square
feet.
So
what
that
did
is
incentivized
neighbors
to
sell
portions
of
their
backyards
off
so
here
in
oakley
we
have
really
big
backyards.
We
have
like
third
acres
and
half
acres,
and
when
that
happened,
all
of
a
sudden,
everybody
started
selling
their
backyards
and
we
started
to
create
a
lot
of
infill,
which
is
fantastic.
D
If
we're
trying
to
address
the
the
needs
to
combat
affordable
housing
problems
that
we
have
the
goal
with
infill.
Is
you
create
more
housing
stock
and
bring
the
houses
priced
down
overall,
but
there's
some
negative
externalities
to
that?
So
when
you
get
a
lot
of
new
neighbors
come
in,
you
also
get
increases
in
traffic,
both
in
volume
and
flow
and
speed.
D
And
so
you
know
when
we
put
this
event
on
the
whole
goal
is
to
showcase
walkability,
livability
and
oakley,
because
that
seems
to
be
something
that
it's
really
lacking
so
to
get
into
the
event
itself.
We
we
actually
closed
down
thompson
street
for
a
particular
reason,
because
it
happens
to
be
right
on
the
swannanoa
river.
So
that's
a
very
flat
corridor.
D
It's
easy
for
biking,
easy
for
walking,
there's
not
a
sidewalk
there
now,
but
it
is
on
the
the
path
of
what
will
soon
be
the
greenway
they'll
connect
east
asheville,
all
the
way
down
to
the
river
arts
district.
But
you
know
in
the
in
the
meantime,
you
know
what
what
do
we
do
with
our
space?
So
you
know
we.
We
wanted
to
put
this
event
on
to
just
to
raise
awareness
of
this,
and
it's
not
just
for
thompson
street.
D
That
oakley
had
done
this
their
their
concern
in
totality
for
the
neighborhood,
but
here's
a
map
of
where
we
closed
and
you
see
the
big
thick
green
lines-
are
basically
the
connectors
that
go
from
fairview
road,
which
is
our
main
thoroughfare
through
oakley
down
into
the
portion
of
thompson
street
that
we
closed
down
and
there
once
there
we
had
a
number
of
events.
We
had
a
sign-making
deal
where
we
had
asked
all
the
kids
to
come
and
paint
some.
D
D
So
we
asked
them
if
they'd
donate
it
for
this
cause,
we
painted
them
all
up,
and
if
you
go
down
fairview
road,
now,
you'll
notice,
a
number
of
these
signs
are
are
kind
of
all
over
the
place
and
really
the
timing
couldn't
have
been
better
because
a
lot
of
folks
are
are
planning
on
trick-or-treating
in
this
neighborhood,
which
is
kind
of
a
new
thing
for
us.
But
this
event
was
so
successful
that
people
really
want
to
take
ownership
of
their
sidewalks
and
walk
and
enjoy
halloween
this
year.
D
And
they're
phenomenal
as
a
as
a
sponsor,
I
have
to
put
a
personal
thank
you
out
to
mike
sewell
and
his
team
for
for
putting
up
the
the
the
bike
rodeo
for
the
for
the
kids.
I
know
everybody
had
a
lot
of
fun.
D
It
was
amazing,
watching
you
know
tiny
children
that
are,
you
know,
barely
able
to
talk
just
running
around
on
bikes
so
and
their
parents
too,
were
super
enthused
to
be
able
to
to
have
this
space,
but,
more
importantly,
mike
and
actual
bikes
have
really
helped
us
navigate
the
the
permitting
process.
You
have
to
remember
that
we
only
spent
about
five
weeks
putting
this
whole
thing
together.
So
without
expertise
I
don't
know
if
we've
been
able
to
do
it.
D
Also
aarp
was
really
cool.
You
know
they
had
had
provided
a
few
hundred
dollars
for.
For
this
event,
some
of
which
we
were
able
to
to
commission
sunshine
sunshine
sammy's
to
come
out,
and
we
told
everybody
like
look
if
you
are
able
to
walk
to
this
event.
You're
gonna
get
a
voucher
for
a
free
sunshine,
sammy's
ice
cream,
which
I
thought
was
was
really
neat,
so
big
kudos
to
arp
and
sunshine
sammy's.
D
For
making
that
happen,
one
of
the
things
that
we
wanted
to
highlight
in
this
event
was
to
to
do
like
a
street
tweak
example.
So
this
was
one
that
I
personally
worked
on
myself.
What
where
we
were
highlighting
here
specifically
on
on
thompson
street,
is
it's
a
pretty
walkable
corridor?
It's
slow
speed
like
25
mile
an
hour
zone,
it's
pretty
straight
and
it
would
be
very,
very
walkable
and
bikeable,
with
the
exception
of
a
couple
of
blind
curves.
D
So
what
we
demoed
here
was
a
push
button,
pedestrian
call
beacon
that
would
illuminate
a
a
pedestrian
zone.
So,
if
you're,
on
the
other
end
of
that
blind
curve,
you'd
press
the
button-
and
this
sign
would
light
up
along
with
three
flashing
sticks
that
are
quite
coming
up
well
in
this
photo.
But
what
it
does
is
alert
cars
to
know,
hey,
there's,
there's
pedestrian
in
the
zone
be
be
cautious
and
be
prepared
to
slow
down.
D
There's
going
to
be
somebody
in
the
zone,
but
it's
these
types
of
things
that
you
know
we
we
wanted
to
showcase
and
we
we
want
to
see
things
like
this
in
our
neighborhood,
not
just
here
on
thompson
street
but
across
the
whole
neighborhood.
D
Here's
the
the
same
from
the
other
from
the
other
area.
So
you
see
like
pedestrian
zone
cars,
gonna
move
over
a
little
bit,
knowing
that
that
there's
people
also
a
big
thanks
to
the
french
broad
mpo,
as
well
as
the
city
of
asheville.
The
city
of
asheville,
was
really
good
to
get
me
these
stand-up
easels
and
white
papers.
So
we
could
collect
data
in
this
little
zone
that
I
just
highlighted,
and
then
hannah
bengali
with
the
mpo
was
awesome
about
just.
D
She
stayed
at
this
station
all
day
and
asked
people
to
answer
these
questions,
and
basically
she
and
I
had
asked
open-ended
questions
to
participants.
You
know
basically
like
what
would
you
like
to
see
in
in
oakley
to
make
it
more
livable,
more
walkable,
more
bike
friendly,
and
we
collected
this
data
so
once
the
whiteboard
was
was
full
with
ideas,
then
we
asked
people
to
rate
their
top
three
choices
to
to
weigh.
You
know
what
they'd
like
to
see.
D
So
you
know
here's
a
here's,
a
in
essence
what
it
is,
but
I
took
a
dive
at
it
earlier
and
in
essence,
92
of
the
respondents
had
had
been
advocating
for
either.
You
know
connected
further
connectivity
and
oakley
or
traffic
calling
implementations.
So
it
was
pretty
resounding.
You
know
when
you
get
all
those
people
out
enjoying
that
space
next
to
the
river
they're,
pretty
quick
to
tell
you
that
they
want
more,
and
that
was
the
goal
of
of
the
day.
D
So
key
takeaways,
you
know
the
the
event
itself
was
considered
a
huge
success
again,
considering
the
only
the
five
weeks
of
planning
that
we
had.
We
were
going
to
be
really
happy
just
if
the
road
it
was
closed,
and
that
was
it,
but
we
had
a
lot
of
other
programming
that
was
successful
and
we
are
already
underway
planning
the
spring
event,
which
should
be
a
bigger
and
better
event.
You
know
we
also
were
really
effective.
D
I
think
in
engaging
and
energizing
the
neighborhood
about
walkability
and
as
I
mentioned,
that
92
figure
was
was
pretty
startling,
but
not
surprising.
So
next
steps,
you
know
the
oakley
neighborhood
association
is
a
new
association.
It's
it's
resurrected.
D
It
had
been
around
previously
in
the
late
2000s
and
then
had
kind
of
disbanded
in
2008,
and
it's
been
on
hiatus
ever
since
our
neighborhood
had
resurrected
it
here
this
year
and
one
of
the
things
in
our
our
plan
on
a
page
is
specifically
addressing.
You
know:
livability
walkability
and
connectivity,
and
you
know
this
event
was
was
all
part
of
that.
D
But
what
we're
going
to
be
asking
for
is
particularly
our
transportation
committee,
as
a
subcommittee
of
the
oakland
neighborhood
association,
we'll
be
asking
for
the
city
to
develop
and
implement
a
neighborhood
driven
plan
to
increase
connectivity
by
pet
safety
and
overall
livability
in
oakley's
neighborhood
of
7
000.,
and
our
proposed
process
would
be
that
step
one.
We
can
conduct
a
comprehensive
neighborhood-wide
transportation
study
to
collect
data
figure
out
where
the
hot
spots
are.
D
What
needs
you
know
where
our
needs
actually
are
and
where
would
be
best
suited
to
make
fixes
step
two
would
be
engaging
in
a
joint
analysis
of
drafting
that
neighborhood
plan
and
then
step.
Three
would
be
a
presentation
to
mmtc,
where
you
know
fees
conceivably,
the
plan
could
be
endorsed
and
maybe
pushed
up
to
city
council,
but
right
now
we
don't
have
a
vehicle
to
to
do
that.
Amongst
multimodal
we've
talked
about
that
before
it's
been
one
of
the
issues
that
we've,
I
think
wanted
to
address.
D
D
So
I've
got
a
motion
that
I
want
to
put
on
the
table
and
I'm
curious
to
know
the
discussion
about
it,
but
as
currently
written
and
I'll
just
go
ahead
and
make
this
motion
now,
the
motion
would
be
we,
the
multimodal
transportation,
multimodal
transportation
committee,
support
participatory
governance
among
our
city
neighborhoods
and
thus
support
the
establishment
of
a
city-wide
program
that
would
afford
recognize
city
neighborhoods,
the
opportunity
to
a
commission,
a
city-sponsored
transportation
study
of
their
own
neighborhood
b,
based
on
study
results
and
in
collaboration
with
city
staff.
D
D
So
we've
got
a
motion
on
the
table
and
I'm
curious
to
know
what
the
expression
is.
Thanks.
B
Michael,
can
you
put
that
motion
back
up
that
slide?
Please
I
can't
yep,
thank
you,
and
so
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
go
randy's
a
second
and
then
we
can
go
to
discussion.
So
let's
just
have
some
thoughts
since
I'm
talking
I'll
get
you
to
talk
about.
This
is
fantastic
michael.
It's
really
good.
B
Idea
of
this
you
know
getting
the
community
energized
and
understanding
what's
possible.
I
like
the
idea
of
this
motion
because
it
really
it
takes
that
excitement
and
fervor
that
you've
stirred
up
in
the
community
level
and
gives
it
a
path
to
to
get
through
to
actually
get.
You
know
get
some
things
done,
and
I
think
this
is
a
it's.
It's
a
nice
way
once
you
create
that
I
feel,
like
you,
have
a
place,
a
rightful
place
for
it
to
to
be
walked
through
this,
the
city.
B
So
I
love
this
idea
and
I
think
you
know
it's
a
great
step
forward.
Any
other
comments
on
this
idea.
C
I
think
one
thing
too
is
it
fits
into
those
four
goals
that
maggie
was
talking
about
earlier.
That
came
out
of
our
retreat.
Is
that
one
of
those
things
was
a
connected
bicycle
network
and
that's
it's
a
hard
thing
to
do,
because
there's
so
many
different
pieces
of
it
that
need
to
go
into
that,
but
if
we
can
have
each
neighborhood
or
neighborhoods
that
are
motivated
to
do
this
kind
of
study
and
look
for
connectivity
in
their
own
neighborhood
to
other
outside
areas.
C
I
Well,
jump
into
just
kind
of
saying
that,
like
there's
so
many
times
that
folks
just
say
like
the
city
should
do
this,
the
city
should
do
that,
and
this
is
a
pretty
awesome
example
where,
like
the
community.
G
M
I
It's
not
just
like
michael's
idea
or
so
is
great.
It's
like
this
community
is
really
organizing
themselves,
and
that
is
like
awesome,
and
I
think
that
I
think
this
idea
of
support
is
saying:
okay.
Well,
how
can
like,
if
we
were
in
support
of
this,
then
it's
a
chance
for
the
organism,
the
organizing
to
be
rewarded
and
kind
of
bored.
So
I
really
like
seeing
that
participation
and
that
leadership.
B
Yeah,
I'm
with
you
on
that.
It
makes
me
think
of
what
eric
said
in
his
presentation
that
you
know
if
you're
not
part
of
that
budgeting
process,
it
might
be
a
really
good
idea,
but
you're
just
not
there's
no
way
to
get
involved,
because
there
are
so
many
other
things
that
the
city's
doing-
and
I
feel
like
it's
discouraging
to
that
community
group,
because
they're
really
putting
their
blood
sweating
tears
into
these
ideas
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they
can
turn
into
something.
B
D
Yeah
and
I'm
just
going
to
comment-
you
know
on
this
myself-
I
left
this
motion
pretty
broad
and
I'm
hoping
that
what
we're
doing
is
creating
the
true
the
trajectory
we're
putting
out
the
the
bones
and
we're
hoping
that
city
staff
can
help
us
put
the
skin
on
this
thing,
because
we
we
as
a
as
a
neighborhood,
you
know
put
my
neighborhood
association
hat
on
as
the
co-chair
of
the
neighborhood
association.
D
We
don't
have
the
expertise
to
to
know
what
what
to
do
with
this.
We
we
know,
we've
got
a
lot
of
feedback
that
people
want
this
stuff,
but
now
what
so
the
now?
What
is
we're
putting
this
motion
would
put
the
request
in
front
of
staff
to
work
with
the
neighborhood.
D
You
know
to
figure
out
what
the
issues
are
and
what
are
the
best
ways
to
to
create
a
menu
of
options
to
fix
those
issues,
and
then,
hopefully,
that's
something
that
we
can.
We
can,
you
know,
put
back
in
front
of
this
group,
so
we
can
weigh
in
with
the
collective
expertise
that
we
have
and
ultimately
pass
it
up
to
council.
M
And
I
appreciate
that
it
is
broad-based
and
I
appreciate
you
know
well
one
I
guess.
M
Great,
I
was
really
excited.
I
wasn't
able
to
get
down
there,
but
I'm
glad
it
turned.
L
J
E
M
M
D
It
does,
and
I
think
it's
important
you
know
the
reason
that
the
city-wide
program
language
had
been
put
in
was
really
to
address
the
the
fact
to
make
assurance
that
this
was
something
that
was
going
to
be
available
to
every
neighborhood,
not
just
oakley,
so
you
know
I,
I
really
think
that's
that's
where
the
the
devil
is
in
the
details.
At
that
point,
you
know
who
who's?
Who
creates
that
that
framework-
and
you
know
I'd-
be
willing
to
to
throw
my
hat
into
a
sub
committee.
D
You
know
to
to
work
on
that.
You
know
what
that
what.
D
I
just
would
think
that
it
needs
to
be
standard
across
the
board.
So
when
you
know
east
west
asheville
neighborhood
says
that
they
want
to
do
something
or
like
today
I
actually
got
a
call
from
heath
with
the
south
slope,
neighborhood
association
saying
you
know
he
had
some
current
concerns
about
south
slope
and
what
do
we
do
with
that
and
he
called
me
directly
and
I
was
like.
L
Yeah,
oh
sure,
and
well
I
mean
I
think
too,
in
some
ways
that
perhaps
this
commission-
or
at
least
you
know
again,
the
collective
commission
probably
has
the
knowledge
base,
certainly
more,
maybe
than
some
other
neighborhood
groups.
You
know
you
the
fact
that
you're
on
multimodal
plus
you're
on
the
neighborhood
group,
there's
probably
a
lot
of
neighborhood
groups
that
don't
have
someone
that
either
has
transportation
experience
or
has
any
direct.
You.
M
L
You
know
and
any
doings
with
the
city
in
that
regard,
I
would
think
that
this
commission
maybe
has
more
experience
to
be
able
to
to
work
with
staff
to
help
craft
it
I
mean
in
some
ways
I
kind
of
feel
I
shouldn't
say
I
feel
bad,
but
I
it
seems
like
we're
just
asking
staff
for
more
and
more
when
I
think
that
we
could
work
together
with
them
to
help
create
this.
I
totally
agree
it
needs
to
be
something
that
is
a
framework
that
works
in
any
neighborhood.
L
You
know
it
can't
just
be
specific
to
one
neighborhood
or
one
particular.
You
know
part
of
the
city.
D
Yeah,
so
I'm
I'm
with
you
on
that,
and
I
I
don't
want
to
put
so
much
on
staff
that
it's,
like
you
know,
kind
of
a
back
burner
or
considered
a
a
automatic.
No,
so
yeah
it
doesn't
need
to
be
a
staff
that
creates
the
framework.
I
think
there
is
enough
expertise
on
this
committee
on
this
commission
to
to
put
that
framework
together.
You
know,
and
I
think
what
this
what
we
can
do
with
this
motion
is
get
that
ball
rolling,
and
I
can
change
it
here
now
to
reflect
that.
L
D
Yeah,
I
think
it
would
be-
you
know,
part
of
our
civic
duty
as
a
members
of
this
commission
to
volunteer
to
to
create
a
framework
like
that,
because
it's
something
that's
come
up
so
many
times
since
I've
been
on
this
commission
like
well,
you
know:
you've
got
this
neighbor
over
here.
That
wants
a
crosswalk
you've
got
somebody
over
here
who
wants
a
stoplight
and
you've
got
somebody
over
here
that
wants
a
bike
lane.
You
know,
how
do
we
distill
all
that
you
know
into
a
focal
point
that
can
actually
be
addressed.
L
M
M
E
B
I
agree
bill.
J
So
yeah
I'm
I'm
struggling
with
this
a
little
bit
just
because
I'm
I'm
wondering
where,
where
do
we
go
from
here
to
there
right?
So
I
guess
I
it
seems
like
what
we're
doing
here
and
I'm
basically,
I
love
it,
but
the
own
the
neighborhood
has
to
take
ownership
over
these
proposed
ideas.
Right,
michael,
is
that
your
idea,
or
is
it
a
suggestion
that
the
city
does
a
transportation
study
of
all
neighborhoods?
Is
it.
D
No,
it's
not
all
neighborhoods.
So
what
would
basically
what
we've
done
is
we
collected
a
lot
of
feedback?
A
lot
of
people
said.
Well,
I
want
traffic
coming
here.
I
want
a
crosswalk
over
here.
I
want
you
know
these
fixtures
here
and
there
across
the
neighborhood,
but
we
need
to
take,
as
the
odap
had
mentioned,
a
scientific
approach
to
this
type
of
stuff.
D
So
if,
if
we
can
commission
a
city
sponsored
evaluation
of
a
neighborhood
and
say
you
know,
based
off
of
this
transportation
report
this
traffic
report,
we
can
look
at
this
traffic
volume,
look
at
where
it's
coming
from
how
much
of
it
is
through
traffic.
You
know,
look
at
all
these
different
points
of
data
and
then
the
the
city
has
the
expertise
to
make
some
recommendations
of
saying
you
know.
D
If
we,
if
we
did
some
traffic
calming,
it
would
be
most
effective
if
we
did
it
here
here
and
here
these
are
the
these
are
the
this
is
the
menu
that
we
would.
We
would
recommend
to
the
the
neighborhood
and
then
at
that
point
the
neighborhood
has
something
to
work
with
that
they
can
coalesce
around
and
and
create
a
plan
that
they
would
like
to
present
to
this
group.
That's
more.
J
M
J
D
That's
what
I'm
shooting
for
I
mean.
I
think
this
needs
to
be
neighborhood
driven
yeah.
You
know,
I
think
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
good
intentions
about
where
some
of
this
stuff
should
go,
but
sometimes
it's
not
always
in
alignment
with
what
the
neighbors
think.
So,
if.
M
D
Neighbors
can
can
be
proactive
and
say:
hey,
you
know,
these
are
the
issues
we
have.
We
we
want
to.
You
know,
have
this
study
commissioned
and
we
want
to
work
with
the
city
to
come
up
with
a
strategy
that
makes
sense,
for
you
know
the
city
budget
as
well
as
our
needs
as
a
neighborhood.
I
think
that
everybody
wins.
D
Absolutely
and
that's
part
of
that
framework
that
I'm
hoping
that
we
can
flesh
out,
but
I
would
I
would
absolutely
want
neighbors
neighborhoods
to
be
compelled
to
have
to
be
really
engaged
with.
This.
They'd
have
to
provide
volunteer
hours
for
traffic
counts,
for
example,
but
there's
there's
probably
other
ideas
out
there
too.
But
I
think
all
of
this
really
hinges
on
the
the
idea
of
getting
as
much
buy-in
across
as
much
of
as
many
people
as
possible
to
to
really
make
it
effective
and
and
in
adoption.
J
J
D
To
get
the
ball
rolling
to
to
figure
out
the
answers
to
those
questions?
Okay,
so
you
know
we
don't
have
a
a
game
plan
yet
for
point,
a
to
point
z.
We
need
to
figure
out
the
in
between,
and
I
think
this
this
motion
explicitly
asks
for
some
staff
time,
some
multimodal
time
to
figure
out
exactly.
D
You
know
what
a
a
game
plan
could
look
like
how
that
could
work,
and
I
have
some
ideas
and
some
theories,
but
you
know
I
I
think
it
needs
to
be
a
group
project
and
I'd
love
input
from
everybody.
If
that's
something
that
we
could,
we
could
get
move
forward
with.
J
L
K
Thanks,
I
just
wanted
to
share
randy's
question
in
the
chat,
since
folks
may
not
be
able
to
see
that
he
asked
me
what
my
perspective
on
the
ability
of
neighborhood
associations
to
participate
in
this
type
of
opportunity
might
be,
and
excuse
me
right
now,
the
oh,
my
gosh,
the
neighborhood,
the
community
engagement,
jeremy,
jeremy
lett,
who
I
work
with
all
the
time
as
the
community
liaise
or
the
staff
liaison
for
knack.
K
His
department
has
worked
diligently
to
create
a
process,
an
application
and
award
process
for
the
community
grants
program
that
they
are.
That
is
now
available
for
neighborhoods
to
submit
applications
for,
and
I
don't
have
all
those
details
right
in
front
of
me,
but
I
think
that
to
speak
to
to
joe's
concerns.
K
I
love
this
idea.
I
think
it's
an
incredibly
tall
order
for
staff
to
take
on,
in
the
midst
of
all
the
other
things
that
staff
is
doing
right
now,
but
I
do
think
that
there
is.
K
Support
or
resources
if
there
was
some
sort
of
process
like
this
in
place,
I
bring
up
the
neighborhood
grants
pride
program
because
seeing
how
that
might
play
out
and
transpire
over
the
next
few
months,
since
it's
sort
of
like
a
pilot
program,
might
be
a
really
good
indicator
into
how
something
in
a
similar
vein
might
work
or
just
looking
at
some
things
that
if
this
were
to
come
to
fruition
things
that
we
may
want
to
do
differently
with
this
compared
to
that
program
or
just
learn
some
of
the
pros
and
cons
of
what
they've
learned
through
going
through
that
process.
K
I
don't
know
necessarily
if
they
translate
into
multimodal
concerns
explicitly,
but
this
goes
back
to
sort
of
like
when
you're
working
with
communities
and
folks
who
aren't
in
the
thick
of
this
day-to-day,
they
may
not
use
the
sort
of
like
quote-unquote
correct,
like
terminology
or
lingo
or
jargon,
to
accurately
express
sort
of
like
the
issue
at
hand,
so
I
think
there
would
certainly
be
an
appetite
for
it.
K
I
also
just
me
personally
getting
into
the
weeds
of
things
really
quickly
and
being
all
about
processes,
and
I'm
like
how.
How
would
we
do
this?
But
that's
that's,
maybe
me
getting
ahead
of
myself.
So
that's
my
long-winded
answer.
B
Thanks
pat.
F
Yeah,
what
I'm
getting
from
this
is
that,
oh,
the
city
is
asking.
I
mean
the
oakley
is
asking
the
city
to
pay
for
a
traffic
study,
maybe
similar
to
what
was
done
on
mcdowell
and
hendersonville.
F
Or
are
they
asking
that
they
they
could
get
make
produce
a
study
themselves
and
generate
it
and
then
show
it
to
the
city
or
to
us
for
tweaking
and
editing
and
approval?
F
What
I'm
thinking
is
this,
along
with
anna,
that
the
staff
has
a
lot
of
resources,
but
they
have
a
lot
of
demands
on
the
people
and
it's
always
easier
to
edit
than
to
initiate
if
the
the
sid
of
oakley
had
an
idea
of
what
a
request
for
proposal
would
look
like
or
if
they
had
resources
to
actually
draw
draw
the
plan
up
themselves
because
it's
you
know
your
streets,
and
you
know
where
you
would
probably
want
the
bike
lanes
and
this
and
the
sidewalks
and
stuff.
F
Would
it
make
sense
for
you
all
to
do
that
analysis
from
the
grassroots
level
and
then
bring
that
to
the
city,
for
how
does
that
fit
in
with
your
plans
and
what
you
might
already
have
funded?
For
example,
the
swanona
greenway
trail,
it
sounds
to
me
like
you're
asking
for
money,
and
you
don't
have
any
idea
how
how
much
it's
going
to
cost
it
would
have
to
be
part
of
a
budget.
Can
this?
Can
the
city
support
the
neighborhood,
drawing
up
a
plan
for
themselves.
J
I
think
we
need
to
figure
out
a
way
to
make
this
happen.
The
question
is
how,
because
it's
it's
a
clear
need-
and
I
was
wondering-
is
this
a
case
where
oakley
could
be
just
a
pilot
effort
that
we
could
execute
on
our
own
so
that
we
can
determine
what
this
process
might
look
like
and
get
just
some
ball
rolling
a
little
bit.
I
mean
I
don't
know
what
it's
going
to
look
like
until
we
actually
engage
right.
J
No,
I
don't
think
anybody
does
unless
we
do,
I
don't,
but
maybe
that's
a
possible
vehicle
where
we
just
say
this
sounds
great:
let's
figure
out
how
it
works
and
authorize,
michael
and
or
oakley
to
get
started
on
it.
If
it
requires
money
asks
and
that's
a
different
thing
or
resource.
Ask:
we've
just
had
visitors
to
our
group
that
are
want
to
get
engaged
with
us.
It's
we
might
could
engage
something
right
now,
as
almost
a
pilot
effort
just
to
try
to
understand
what
this
process
should
look
like.
D
M
D
Been
done
before
there's
going
to
be
some
some
trial
and
error
and
a
lot
of
legwork,
I
think
on
behalf
of
the
neighborhood.
Hopefully,
some
people
in
this
group
would
want
to
volunteer
some
time,
but
if
we
can
get
a
good
process
down,
pat
I'd
like
to
see
this
exported
to
every
neighborhood
in
asheville,
because
the
I
think,
like
I
said
it's
that
vehicle.
That's
that's
missing.
Right
now,.
J
I
J
H
Yeah,
I
think
this
is
a
great
idea
as
well.
I
did
have
a
couple
questions
just
with
the
the
language,
so
I'm
not
sure
how
this
works.
Does
every
neighborhood
in
the
city
have
an
association
and
how
what
what
defines
a
neighborhood
in
the
city,
because
I
know
that
it's
not
the
lines
are
blurred
and
you
know
there's
like
some
neighborhood
split
up
into
micro
neighborhoods
right.
So
I
guess
that's
the
first
question
I
had
and
then
the
other
question
I
had
was
what
defines
a
study.
H
You
know
you
know,
but
I
think
that
the
idea
is
great.
I
love
that
you
know
it's.
H
You
know
driven
you
know
by
the
the
people
in
the
community
and
it's
you
know,
you're
really
engaging
the
community
and
trying
to
get
something
done
from
the
city,
which
can
be
something
difficult
to
achieve,
and
you
know
going
back
to
what
joe
said
you
don't
want
to.
You
know,
burn
your
city
with
more
work
and
then
go.
H
What
would
happen
if
we
were
to
adopt
this?
This
motion.
M
D
Putting
more
additional
burden
on
staff,
because
I
kind
of
see
this
as
as
the
antithesis
of
that
you
know
as
it
is
now,
whenever.
D
D
What
this
process
would
seek
to
do
is
to
to
take
some
of
that
burden
off
the
city
and
let
the
neighborhood
associations
collect
that
data
from
the
neighborhood
as
a
whole
and
distill
it
and
then
hand
that
off
to
the
staff
to
work
with
something,
that's
been
distilled.
D
With
this,
if
we
vote
on
this
today,
you
know
just
kind
of
think
about
this
motion,
as
as,
as
an
endorsement
of
multimodal
commission
saying
that
this
is
this
is
the
trajectory
that
we
want
to
go
on.
You
know,
I
think,
at
that
point,
it's
going
to
be
incumbent
on
volunteers
of
this
group
and
and
hopefully
my
neighborhood
to
do
some
of
the
leg
work
as
far
as
defining
well.
D
What
is
a
study
you
know
what's
involved
there,
what
should
be
standardized
when
we're
looking
at
this
and
then
to
what
bill
was
saying
we
can
we
can
kind
of
craft
that
as
a
pilot
and
come
back
to
multimodal
and
say
hey,
you
know
what
do
y'all
think
about
a
this
process
that
we've
put
together.
We
think
it
could
be
standardized
and
b.
What
do
you
all
think
about?
You
know
the
specific
recommendations
to
to
the
neighborhood?
D
Is
that
something
that's
in
alignment
with
with
multimodals
perspective
and
is
in
alignment
with
the
city's
overall
goals?
And
then,
at
that
point
you
know
once
we've
done
that
the
ball
is
really
up
in
the
air
for
council
to
decide
whether
or
not
they
want
to.
You
know,
engage
with
with
the
citizens
who
are
making
the
request.
K
Sure
so
I
put
the
link
to
neighborhood
registration
information
in
the
chat
box
as
well.
It's
basically
up
to
how
the
neighborhood
points
of
contact
want
to
organize
the
neighborhood
itself
determines
its
physical
boundaries
or
geographical
boundaries,
and
there
is
a
standardized
form
or
registration
form
that
the
city
asks
folks
in
that
neighborhood
to
complete
and
to
submit
right
now.
Brenda
mills
is
the
interim
equity
and
inclusion
director
for
the
city.
She
was
the
neighborhood
services.
K
Manager
right
now,
jeremy
lett
is
the
interim
neighborhood.
Excuse
me,
neighborhood
and
community
engagement
manager,
jeremy
lett
is
the
interim
person
in
that
position
and
he's
amazing.
K
K
Yes,
this
neighborhood
grants
program
is
starting
to
kick
off
and
so
it'll
be
really
interesting
to
see
how
we
sort
of
measure
success
with
that
the
the
dollar
amounts
aren't
huge
and
like
what
I
keep
coming
back
to
just
because
I
I
work
in
this
stuff
day
to
day
is
like
I
don't
think,
there's
ever
a
really
clear
understanding
of
how
much
this
stuff
costs
in
terms
of
like
labor
and
planning
like
just
a
simple
sort
of
like
speed,
hump,
installation
and
design,
and
all
of
that
is
upwards
of
like
ten
thousand
dollars
or
could
be,
or
all
of
the
things
that
you
need
to
go
through
to
determine
that
you
need
something
like
that.
K
So
I
think,
that's
not
that's,
certainly
not
to
pooh-pooh
anything
we're
talking
about
today.
It's
just
like
I,
I
keep
getting
like,
grounded
in
like
the
financial
constraints
and
realities
of
of
this.
I
also
wonder
too,
like
the
city,
has
a
traffic
calming
policy
and
sort
of
a
process
and
in
place
for
folks
to
submit
concerns
regarding
like
their
neighborhood.
K
I
know
that
that
is
deviating
from
what
what
you're
talking
about
here,
michael,
but
also
just
sort
of
like
exploring
what
the
city
currently
has
as
resources
related
to
this
and
seeing
how
we
might
be
able
to
either
like
improve
those
processes
or
leverage
those
in
some
way,
I
think,
would
could
be
helpful
too.
So.
D
Absolutely-
and
I
think
that's
part
of
what
I
would
envision
as
being
part
of
this
study
is
to
say
you
know
what
what
resources
are
already
allocated
to
this
type
of
work,
and
I
think
for
neighbors
is
like
there
seems
to
be
no
rhyme
or
reason
at
least
to
a
lot
of
people
as
far
as
why
a
traffic
hump
got
put
in
on
this
road,
but
it
didn't
get
put
in
over
on
this
road
or
why
a
stop
sign
was
put
in
here
or
why
a
road
was
repaved
over
there.
D
There
just
seems
to
be
no
engagement
with
with
the
community
neighborhood
as
far
as
like
where
those
things
are
prioritized,
and
I
I
would
suggest
that
part
of
this
process
is
to
up
in
that
a
little
bit
and
allow
neighborhoods
to
have
a
proactive
seat
at
the
table
when
some
of
those
dollars
are
spent.
B
I
mean,
I
think
this
is
a
really
good
idea.
Unfortunately,
we're
up
against
a
hard
five
o'clock
today,
due
to
some
technical
stuff,
but
I'd
like
to
raise
my
hand
and
maybe
work
with
you
michael.
So
we
can
you-
and
I
can
maybe
kind
of
put
some
of
this
together
in
a
previous
committee
that
I
worked
with
in
my
previous
community,
the
transportation
committee.
We
actually
had
a
forum
when
someone
wanted
a
stop
sign.
It
explained
here's
the
threshold
for
the
city.
B
This
is
where
a
stop
sign
is
appropriate
and
then
they
had
open
areas
where
they
had
to
answer
these
questions,
and
I
think
it
kind
of
it
gave
some
some
meat
around
what
you're
talking
about.
Maybe
what
we
could
do
is
kind
of
talk
about.
You
know
investing
what
adam
was
talking
about
and
some
of
these
things
that
already
exist
and
just
creating
a
page
where
they're
available
and
then
you
and
I
can
maybe
start
putting
some
forms
together
about
what
is
the
information
that
they
need.
B
What
is
the
work
that
the
community
can
do
then
to
to
give
it
to
the
city,
so
at
least
they
have.
Some
idea
of
you
know.
Is
this
just
a
you
know
a
grievance
that
someone
might
have
or
is
actually
is
a
real
issue,
so
we
can
start
to.
B
You
know
frame
some
of
these
things
because
I
think
you're
right,
we
don't
have
the
ability
to
have
city
go
out
at
every
single
request
and
make
sure
that
you
know
there's
you
know
traffic
calming
issues
without
some
data
coming
in
from
the
community
anna.
K
Yeah-
and
I
know
that
we
have
to
move
on-
I
just
want
to
say
that
I'm
not
sure
how
much
like
I
can
initiate,
but
I'm
happy
to
be
part
of
that
conversation
michael
or
have
you
sort
of
like
be
there
as
a
resource
or
sort
of
like
again
liaison
with
with
the
neighborhood
advisory
committee,
but
also
just
from
personal
professional
experience.
B
Michael,
would
you
be
okay
with
you
and
I
maybe
we
can
table
this
motion
you
and
I
meeting
off,
meeting
and
starting
to
put
some
of
this
together
and
then
we
can
add
this
as
a
future
agenda
item
and
you
and
I
can
come
back
with
something
to
the
group
and
in
a
couple
of
months
and
say
you
know
this
is
what
the
plan
can
look
like.
D
Yeah
I
I'd
like
that.
I
you
know
I'm
completely
fine
with
with
this
not
being
resolved
today,
but
as
long
as
we're
on
that,
like
I
said
that
trajectory
to
getting
to
to
that
end
goal,
I
think
that's
fine.
What
I
would
request
is
you
know
dennis
and
anybody
else
that's
on
this
commission.
You
know.
Perhaps
we
could.
B
Yeah,
I
think
that's
a
great
idea.
I
I
like
the
idea
that
we
can
create
something
that
then
can
be
used
by
every
community
and
john
you
bring
a
private
point
earlier
about.
Does
every
community
have
a
everyday
would
have
a
a
group?
This
is,
I
think,
one
of
these
things
that
if
it's
created
this
will
generate
that
that
cohesiveness
within
the
community
they're
going
to
build
a
group
so
they're
going
to
want
to
communicate
with
us.
So
I
think
this
is
one
of
those
tools
that
can
really
deliver
a
lot
of
value
everywhere.
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Okay,
so
good,
unfinished
business
we're
gonna,
get
an
update
on
the
transit
committee
request
to
become
a.
N
Commission
jessica,
so
that
request
was.
O
Supposed
to
go
to
council
yesterday
evening
at
their
meeting,
but
the
council
members
asked
to
have
it
postponed
until
a
future
meeting
and
there
has
not
yet
been
a
date
for
it
to
be
re-added
to
the
to
the
council
agenda.
So
I
will
have
to
keep
you
guys,
updated.
B
Okay,
great.
The
next
item
is
the
status
on
the
city
by
25,
mph
default,
speed
limit.
B
At
this
time,
okay,
the
bike
share,
yeah.
C
B
Absolutely
okay.
The
next
item
is
the
discussion
of
the
retreat
and
next
steps.
So
it's
a
couple
of
things
I
want
to
cover
off
really
quickly
on
the
retreat
was,
I
think,
a
huge
success.
Thank
you
again,
maggie.
You
know
it
just
worked
out
very
well.
I
thought
we
really
kind
of
built
some
some
group
camaraderie
there.
There
are
four
outputs.
We
have
folks
that
have
raised
their
hands
for
all
of
them.
B
I
think
we
have
three
folks
that
we're
still
looking
to
have
you
select,
I
think
it's
pat
bill
and
carla.
So
if
you
can
all
kind
of
go
into
that,
the
mosaic,
the
the
there's
a
link
on
our
agenda
at
the
bottom
that
goes
to
our
partner
documents,
the
retreat
summaries
in
there
and
there's
a
link
from
the
retreat
summary
that
maggie
put
together
that
goes
to
that
document.
B
So
that's
kind
of
what
I'm
hoping
that
each
one
of
these
groups
will
do-
and
I
think
you
know
going
through
you
can
see
where
folks
have
raised
their
hands
or
you
can
just
send
me
a
note.
Let
me
know
what
you
want
to
participate
in.
I
can
send
that
out
to
everybody,
so
everyone
has
that
so
we
are,
we
can
all
start
putting
those
pieces
together.
So
it
might
start
in
december.
B
Maybe
you
know
it
makes
sense
with
the
streetscape
issues,
because
we're
meeting
with
the
downtown
folks,
so
there's
some
things
in
that
we
can
talk
about,
but
I
think
it's
important
that
we
just
kind
of
make
sure
that
we're
striking
where
the
iron
is
hot
and
getting
some
work
done
with
this.
With
this,
with
these
items,
does
that
make
sense
with
everyone.
J
Hey
dennis,
I
had
one
question:
yes,
sir,
if
there's
more
than
three
people
collaborating,
we
are
okay
to
have
a
meeting.
Is
that
correct,
or
are
there
rules
about
that.
B
There
are
rules
about
that.
We
wouldn't
be
able
to
have
a
meeting,
so
in
those
instances,
you'll
see
that
anna's
very
graciously
raised
her
hand
on
multiple
areas,
so
anna
and
kenny,
I
believe,
have
done
that.
So
I'm
sure
they
would
pull
back
on
one.
I
think
they
were
just
looking
to
make
sure
that
there
was
enough
participation
for
each
one.
So
I
think
we
need
to
have.
I
believe
three,
no
more
than
three.
Is
that
correct?
That's
right.
B
B
Okay,
let's
see
what
else
we
have
here:
okay,
we
can
go
into
real,
quick
to
committee
updates,
john.
I
know
you
and
I
had
spoke
earlier
about
transit,
but
is
it
the
case
that
transit
did
not
meet
last
month?
Okay,
so
there's
no
update
there
at
this
time
and
then
we
can
go
into
greenway
committee
kenny,
I'm
sure
he's
still
with
the
canister
with
us
might
have
lost
kenny
there.
There
is,
I
think
everyone
received
the
invite,
there's
a
field
trip
for.
B
I
think
it's
november,
the
first
week
in
november
for
the
greenway
committee
to
walk
through
the
new
section,
that's
being
built
if
there's
time
we're
gonna
meet
with
the
that
project
manager
as
well.
So
I
think
that's
really
helpful
for
us
to
kind
of
get
that
feedback,
as
things
are
happening,
talk
to
them
about
some
of
the
challenges
they
might
be
facing.
So
we
can
use
that
learning
to
you
know,
because
we
have
this
plan
to
build
all
these
other
greenways
happening.
B
B
G
Yeah
someone's.
B
So
please
do
sign
up
for
that
and
come
along.
Let's
see
bike
pen,
randy.
C
Yeah
so
the
december
meeting
minutes
are
attached
and
basically
the
biggest
things
going
on
is
the
bike
head
counts
that
we
do
on
a
handle
basis
and
a
number
of
intersections
on
a
three-day
period.
Each
december
we
did
not
have
a
meeting
last
thursday,
as
we
normally
would
have,
because,
as
most
of
us
know,
that
pardon
me
is
having
health
issues
which
precludes
her
from
being
able
to
be
our
staff
person
anymore.
C
So
lucy
crown
is
taking
that
over
and
during
this
transition
time
we're
having
to
kind
of
reassess
a
few
things,
and
so
we
didn't
we
didn't
meet
last
month,
but
our
goal
is
to
meet
right
here
at
our
normal
time.
I
think
it's
november,
18th
in
november
and
kind
of
start
to
just
make
sure
that
we
are
in
a
position
to
move
forward.
Is
you
know
just
as
a
group,
so
we
can
still
be
effective
even
without
barb,
you
know
being
there.
C
Obviously,
and
and
lucy
has
a
lot
of
other
obligations
too,
and
I
know
that
the
staff
in
general
in
that
area
is
kind
of
hard
for
us,
so
we're
just
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
rely
so
much
so
on
staff
to
drive
that
that
group
and
during
the
last
couple
months
of
barbara's
business,
we've
kind
of
seen
how
much
she
does
drive
that
group
and
we
need
to
kind
of
reevaluate
they
just
move
forward
so
that
we
continue
doing
the
great
work
that
the
group
has
done.
B
Great
thanks
joe
anything
going
on
and
appealing.
L
Lately
not
a
thing,
it's
just
quiet,
there's,
no,
really
big
issues
at
all
with
development,
so
I
mean
it's
one
of
the
more
interesting
things
I
don't
know.
If
any
of
you
there.
M
G
L
Little
article,
I
think,
the
last
couple
weeks
ago
about
a
little
micro
housing
development
that
was
going
to
happen
down
if
everybody
knows
where
the
hot
spot
is
downtown
kind
of
in
the
lot
to
the
west
of
that
along
hillary
hillyard
avenue
that
came
through
essentially
imagine
it
I
like
to
call
it
the
yesterday's
hotel
or
the
future
hotel
that
is
going
to
be
today's
housing,
I'm
not
using
the
word
affordable,
because
it's
probably
not
going
to
be
but
interesting
concept
and
essentially
more
housing
units
downtown.
So.
K
Sure
we
also
on
monday,
I
got
a
presentation
from
the
office
of
data
and
performance,
so
really
excited
to
see
that
office
gaining
some
momentum
and
working
with
other
city
departments
into
the
future.
K
We
also
received
a
presentation
from
the
dilla
on
the
open
space
task
force
proposed
amendments
to
the
existing
ordinance
and
my
fellow
committee
member
sharon.
Sumrall
has
really
sort
of
spearheaded
max
participation
on
that
task
force.
I've
sat
in
as
well,
but
a
lot
of
it
to
be
honest,
is
over
my
head
and
we
are
sort
of
we're.
K
I
think
that
is
going
to
pnz
next
week,
joe,
but
they're
looking
for
staff
is
looking
for
sort
of
statements
of
approval
or
approval
with
conditions
on
proposed
amendments,
and
I
think
mac
is
needing
a
little
bit
more
time
to
to
review
things
so
that
it
can
comment
and
feel
feeling
that
it's
providing
informed
comments.
So
those
were
the
two
main
things
that
we
talked
through
on
monday
night.
B
Excellent.
Thank
you.
Okay.
The
next
item:
what's
it
gonna
make
it
staffing,
updates
transportation,
planning
jessica,
give
an
update.
Please.
O
Sure
it
sort
of
touched
on
this
here
and
there,
but
we
are
very
short,
staffed
right
now,
more
so
than
maybe
I've
been
in
the
three
plus
years.
I've
been
here
we
so
we
recently
had
dan
bechtold
retired
after
24
years
with
the
city
and
as
randy
mentioned
barb,
who
is
our
other
one
of
our
other
planners,
is
extremely
ill
and
yeah.
Not
it's
not
not
a
good
prognosis,
so
we
have
been
working.
O
You
know
working
taking
on
basically
all
of
her
work
for
the
last
few
months,
and
so
it's
been
a
bit
challenging
in
the
transportation
planning
division,
but
I
will
say
that
we
recently
completed
final
interviews
for
a
transportation
planner
one
position,
and
so
we
are
hoping
to
get
that
at
least
one
one,
more
planner
back
in
on
staff
in
the
next
month
or
two,
and
I
was
very,
very
happy
with
the
the
candidates
that
we
got
and
so
we'll
keep
you
updated
there.
O
O
So
she
is
kind
of
learning
the
ropes
of
that
position,
while
still
holding
down
the
fort
in
her
current
position.
And
so
we
will
be
re-advertising
for
amy's
position,
hopefully
very
soon,
so
that
we
can.
We
can
get
someone
in
to
be
the
star
one
of
our
primary
staff,
supports
and
transportation,
and
so
amy
can
hopefully
train
that
person,
while
she's
also
being
trained
in
her
new
role.
O
But
I
just
want
to
say
thanks
to
amy
and
congratulations
to
amy,
because
she
definitely
deserves
this
new.
This
new
position
so
other
than
that.
I
think
you
know
we're
just
trying
to
keep
as
much
going
as
we
possibly
can,
and
you
know
trying
to
prioritize
as
best
we
can
and
we're
headed
into
budget
season,
which
is
obviously
a
priority
for
us
and
so
we'll
take
away
some
additional
time
from
other
things,
but
something
that
seems
to
be
a
never-ending
thing
as
budget.
O
But
we
will
be
kicking
that
off
with
the
broader
city
here
in
the
next
few
weeks,
so
yeah
we'll
just
keep
doing
the
best
we
can.
So.
Thank
you
guys.
B
Yeah
absolutely
thank
you
and
thank
you
amy.
So
that's
about
it
notice
our
future
agenda
items
michael.
I
will
work
with
you
offline
to
ensure
that
that
your
item
be
gets
on
there
very
soon
and
if
you
can
also
raise
your
hand
for
the
folks
who
haven't
just,
let
me
know
what
part
you
want
to
participate
in
and
we'll
get
that
rolling
and
then
you'll
be
getting
that
update
about
our
november
december
joining
meeting.
