We've
got
another
great
and
exciting
meeting
tonight
and
I'm
just
delighted
that
you're
here
we're
gonna
try
to
be
respectful
of
your
time,
because
we
know
this
is
a
big
evening
for
some
of
you
at
least
to
following
this
meeting.
F
F
Okay,
wonderful,
sarah,
I'm
just
gonna,
say
next
to
advance
the
slide.
So
would
you
mind
going
to
the
next
one
sounds
good
thanks
so
good
evening.
Everyone.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
share
with
you
this
exciting
initiative.
That's
been
several
years
in
the
making
and
I
feel
has
a
tremendous
synergy
with
our
work
on
the
task
force.
G
F
So,
let's
start
off
by
orienting
ourselves
to
the
scope
of
what
we're
trying
to
do
here.
The
purpose
of
connect
beyond
is
to
define
a
single,
coordinated
transit
vision
for
our
region
and
by
region
we
mean
two
states
and
12
counties
which
are
home
to
over
2.5
million
people
and
embedded
in
our
regional
approach
is
the
importance
of
collaboration
across
multiple
planning
organizations,
regional
planning
organizations,
councils
of
government
and
transit
and
transportation
providers.
F
F
So
why
does
this
all
matter?
We've
got
a
great
initiative
happening
in
charlotte
and
mecklenburg.
It's
our
most
populous
county,
certainly
the
economic
engine
of
our
region.
Why
should
we
think
regionally?
We
know-
and
certainly
we
heard
this
at
our
last
meeting-
that
we
need
a
reliable
connected
and
multi-modal
system
to
keep
us
economically
competitive.
F
But
we
can't
just
afford
to
think
about
the
people
who
aren't
here
yet
we
will
put
our
current
residents
and
businesses
at
the
center
of
this
process
to
work
to
improve
transportation
choices
and
connections
for
them.
Think
about
the
senior
in
high
school
in
gastonia,
who
wants
to
live
at
home
but
attend
a
four-year
university.
That's
local!
F
F
through
connect
our
future.
We
proved
that
we
could
all
work
together
across
the
state
and
county
lines
to
think
big.
We
engaged
over
8
000
people
during
that
three-year
planning
process,
and
what
we
heard
from
that
engagement
was
the
critical
importance
of
enhancing
mobility,
access
and
connections
to
achieving
the
type
of
growth
that
we
need
and
deserve.
F
So
I
can't
emphasize
enough
that
this
is
a
partnership
between
central
lineup
and
cats,
and
you
certainly
heard
from
john
and
his
team
at
one
of
our
earlier
meetings.
We
have
wonderful
experts
on
our
teams
that
are
really
leading
this
process
and
we're
grateful
to
be
able
to
work
with
them
next
and,
of
course,
we
have
wonderful
consultants
and
technical
experts
that
are
led
by
hdr
next.
F
So
we
would
hope
that
this
should
be
done
much
more
quicker
than
18
months,
but
we
know
it
takes
time
to
conduct
the
type
of
thoughtful
analysis
and
engagement
that
we
need
to
achieve
our
objectives
for
this
process.
But
we
hope
by
this
time
next
year,
we'll
be
moving
into
our
final
recommendations.
F
First,
we're
going
to
start
with
a
baseline
and
really
create
a
snapshot
of
where
we
are
today
across
our
12
counties,
understanding,
challenges,
opportunities
and
aspirations
for
the
future,
and,
hopefully,
we'll
do
this
through
robust
stakeholder
engagement,
despite
our
coven
19
situation.
Next,
in
step,
two
we're
going
to
turn
to
some
big
moves.
Looking
at
the
set
of
high
capacity
transit
corridors
that
will
create
the
foundation
for
a
regional
system,
these
will
link
major
destinations
and
we'll
really
be
exploring
different
types
of
transit
solutions,
so
not
just
light
rail.
F
These
high-capacity
corridors
will
align
with
current
and
future
land
use
patterns
and
expand
on
existing
plans
like
the
2030
plan.
Next,
in
step,
three
we're
going
to
connect
the
dots,
build
out
the
network
and
shift
to
designing
an
inter
interconnected
network
that
enhances
transit
access
and
connections.
F
While
balancing
out
big
moves
with
some
of
the
smaller
things
like
micro
investments
and
tech
solutions,
this
could
mean
a
regional
transportation
demand
management
program.
It
could
mean
an
integrated
ticketing
system
across
our
different
transit
providers,
or
even
a
mobility
as
a
service
or
mos
solution
which
connects
public
transit
with
app-based
solutions
like
ride
bike
and
scooter
sharing
platforms.
F
Next
and
then.
Lastly,
we
conclude
with
the
ever
important
blueprint
for
implementation
that
will
include
both
local
actions
and
coordinated
regional
actions,
and
if
we've
done
our
job,
we've
built
the
public
constituency
and
the
public-private
partnership
and
coalition
that
we
need
to
advocate
for
the
type
of
action
that
will
move
this
plan
off
the
page
and
into
reality.
F
Next,
our
roadmap
for
building
that
coalition
runs
through
these
three
committees
and
our
transit
academy.
Our
policy
committee
is
made
up
of
elected
officials
at
all
levels
and
policy
experts,
including
some
private
sector
representation
through
our
partnership
with
the
alliance
janet
serves
on
the
committee
as
well
as
reggie
henderson
from
lowe's.
F
F
Geography
should
be
one
of
them,
also
our
focus
areas,
we're
both
talking
about
transit
and
how
to
integrate
land
use
and
transportation
and
design
a
system.
That's
going
to
work
for
everyone,
we're
also
building
off
cats
efforts
and
other
local
transit
authority
plans
and
partnerships
is
a
major
theme
both
in
terms
of
how
we
develop
the
plan
and
implement
it,
which
finally
leads
to
governance
and
funding
the
resources
that
are
going
to
be
needed
to
implement
both
initiatives.
F
Both
the
quick
wins
and
the
bold
moves
will
actually
require
us
to
work
together
and
we're
certainly
stronger
when
we
can
advocate
with
one
voice
for
what
the
region
needs
in
raleigh
and
in
washington
next.
F
E
Thank
you
so
much
geraldine.
Are
there
questions
from
the
task
force
members?
You
said
a
lot
in
that
15
minutes
and
one
of
the
things
that
that
I
found
interesting
was
18
months.
That's
not
a
long
time.
Where
do
you
expect
to
be
at
the
end
of
the
18
months?
If
you
can
go
back
to
that
slide.
F
Sure
so
I
we
hope
to
be
done
with
the
the
vision
and
the
recon
the
recommendations
from
the
plan.
So
at
this
stage
this
is
a
good
good
one
to
stop.
At
sarah,
we
started
in
february
kovid
kind
of
threw
us
for
a
curveball,
like
you
did
everybody,
so
we're
adjusting
our
engagement
plans
accordingly.
So
there's
a
little
bit
of
a
delay,
but
you
know
by
this
time
next
year,
we're
hopefully
cruising
into
this
fourth
step
and
really
kind
of
making
sure
we're.
E
You're
none
and
then
let's
proceed
to
the
next
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
the
homework
assignment
on
what
we
heard
and
we
heard
a
lot
of
things
from,
I
think
12
different
groups
on
the
task
force,
and
I
want
to
thank
you
again
for
your
extra
work,
and
this
is
going
to
be
a
little
bit
of
a
pattern
as
we
proceed
forward
that
you
will
continue
to
do
some,
hopefully
do
some
things
in
terms
of
a
deeper
dive.
E
Some
of
the
things
we're
discussing
this
evening
and
in
future
task
force
meetings,
scott's
going
to
give
the
summary
of
different
positions
that
were
taken
and
different
issues
that
came
up
scott.
G
G
You
had
some
incredibly
insightful
responses
to
the
prompts
and
some
clear
and
honest
questions
for
us
to
consider,
and
perhaps
most
importantly,
I
think
there
was
a
dedication
to
your
communities
that
was
clear
and
aspirations
that
that
you
all
described.
So,
thank
you
again
for
sharing
that
with
us.
G
Initially,
we
suggested
that
we
might
have
each
group
report
back
on
their
own
conversations.
After
digging,
through
the
results,
we
decided
to
take
a
little
bit
of
a
different
approach
to
the
recap.
We
felt
that
it
would
be
maybe
a
more
efficient
use
of
our
time
for
staff
to
prepare
this
summary
that
you're
about
to
see
and
then
allow
you
all
to
react
to
that
and
to
point
out
anything
that
we
may
have
missed.
G
Of
course,
we
won't
be
able
to
fully
capture
the
nuance
of
your
conversations
within
a
10-minute
overview,
so
we'll
count
on
you
to
help
fill
in
the
gaps.
After
I
go
through
these
slides,
we
also
hope
that,
later
on
in
the
presentation,
you'll
see
that
what
you
told
us
is
reflected
in
the
new
material
that
steven's
going
to
share
with
you
later,
as
we
dig
into
a
framework
for
the
transformational
mobility
network
next,
so
the
first
prompt
that
you
all
discussed
is
what's
been
particularly
insightful
or
useful
to
you
during
our
time
together.
G
G
We
also
asked
you
about
what
has
been
missing
from
the
conversation,
and
it
was
clear
from
the
responses
that
a
lot
of
you
are
mindful
of
the
financial
side
of
this.
We
had
lots
of
questions
about.
How
much
does
this
grand
vision
cost?
What
are
the
funding
tools
in
our
toolbox?
What
can
we
really
afford,
and
so
it's
clear
that
in
the
coming
months,
that's
going
to
be
a
topic
that
we
we
really
need
to
dive
into,
and
we
appreciate
those
honest
questions.
G
We
also
had
some
questions
about.
What's
the
game
plan
after
december,
once
you
all
complete
your
mission
and
deliver
this
mobility
network
to
the
mayor,
what
happens
next,
and
so
it's
on
our
radar
to
try
to
be
clear
about
describing
how
that's
gonna
look
moving
on
into
2021
next,
so,
throughout
this
series
of
slides,
you'll
you'll
see
some
quotes
that
you
all
gave
to
us
again.
G
This
doesn't
cover
the
the
full
depth
of
thought
and
nuance
that
we
saw,
but
I
think
a
lot
of
these
quotes
were
emblematic
of
some
of
the
things
that
we
heard.
So
this
is
from
tammy
and
ken
just
getting
back
to
that
question
of
cost
and
and
scale,
and
what
are
the
tools
available
to
us
to
implement
a
transformational
mobility
network?
G
G
We
also
heard
from
some
of
you
who
were
thinking
about
the
less
flashy
modes
of
transportation,
bus
service,
sidewalks,
pedestrian
crossings.
You
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
lose
sight
of
the
basics
as
we
talk
about
our
larger
transformational
network
and
then
some
really
thoughtful
responses
about
what's
happening
to
the
mobility
landscape,
underneath
our
feet,
we're
all
living
and
moving
around
in
a
different
pandemic
world,
and
what
does
that
look
like
when
we
get
into
a
post-pandemic
future
and
then
the
role
of
tech,
digital
tech
revolution
in
the
transportation
sector?
G
The
second
prompt
asked
you
and
your
groups
to
identify
the
most
important
goals
and
priorities
that
you
shared
in
common,
and
there
were
four
very
clear
themes
that
emerged
from
this:
prompt:
regional
connectivity,
equity
transportation
choices
and
growth
management,
and
so
we're
going
to
jump
into
each
of
those
in
turn.
Next,
this
is
from
raquel
and
david.
The
two
goals
that
they
agreed
upon
most
clearly
were
equity
and
regional
connectivity.
So
again,
just
highlighting
some
of
the
things
we
just
saw
next.
G
So
different
groups
spoke
about
regional
connectivity
in
different
ways.
For
many
groups,
it
was
very
transit,
focused
silver
and
gold
line
for
others.
It
was
focused
on
finishing
the
greenway
network.
Some
folks
were
mindful
of
regional
bus
service,
and
then
others
were
mindful
of
regional
coordination
with
neighboring
towns
and
counties.
Next,
similarly,
different
groups
defined
equity
in,
I
think,
really
different
and
insightful
ways.
Some
groups
focused
on
access
to
opportunity
as
a
primary
goal.
Others
talked
about
access
to
essential
services.
G
Some
groups
focused
on
affordable
transportation
options
like
walking,
biking
and
transit,
and
others
talked
about
where
we
need
to
invest
first
and
how,
by
focusing
on
the
most
vulnerable
and
least
connected
areas.
Next,
this
is
from
danielle
and
david,
ensuring
that
everyone
in
charlotte
has
access
to
basic
needs
as
a
paramount
goal
of
this
effort,
and
that
was
one
of
many
similar
comments
across
all
the
groups
that
underscored
equity.
Next
from
janet
and
chris,
we
are
aligned
and
wanting
charlotte
to
be
a
tier
one,
global
market
and
achieve
equitable
access
to
strong,
vibrant,
healthy
neighborhoods.
G
Every
group
spoke
about
multimodal
transportation
options
and
underscored
that
all
are
important
in
achieving
a
true
mobility
network,
some
keywords
that
kept
appearing
over
and
over
safe,
reliable,
affordable
connected
next.
This
is
from
eric
and
pedro
other
transportation.
Choices
must
be
on
par
with
automobile
experience
or
better,
which
I
thought
was
an
insightful
comment.
G
Next
and
then
growth
management
was
the.
The
fourth
theme
that
very
clearly
emerged
out
of
this
prompt.
A
lot
of
groups
highlighted
the
need
to
manage
growth
along
our
corridors
that
are
already
congested.
We
understand
that
population
and
density
are
increasing,
but
in
many
cases
widening
thoroughfares
is,
is
not
a
good
option
or
not
really
an
option
at
all,
and
so
how
do
we
grow
into
the
future
and
move
more
people
more
efficiently?
G
And
how
do
we
support
multiple
centers
as
destinations?
Next,
this
from
william
and
carl?
We
need
to
address
traffic
congestion
and
the
cumulative
effect
of
growth
on
daily
car
trips
and
then
the
last
prompt
expanded
on
some
of
the
things
we
talked
about
last
month
around
this
definition
of
greatest
need.
G
Other
groups
focused
on
an
idea
of
balanced
investment,
which
we
thought
was
something
that
was
particularly
insightful
and
balanced
in
terms
of
sort
of
bigger
ticket
investments
versus
lower
hanging
fruit,
quick,
win
type
of
investments,
also
balance
in
terms
of
long
key
regional
corridors
that
support
connectivity
across
jurisdictions,
balanced
with
first-class
mile
connections
into
neighborhoods.
Next.
G
This
from
sonya
and
jim,
the
greatest
need
for
long
term
is
rail.
It
should
be
the
foundation
of
a
multimodal
network
that
connects
people
to
businesses
and
homes
next
and
then
from
geraldine
and
nick.
We
need
to
balance
big
ticket
items
with
low-hanging
fruit
that
would
improve
the
transit
experience
and
increase
ridership.
G
G
All
of
those
we
thought
were
especially
insightful
comments
around
this
prompt
and
then
some
groups
talked
about
safety
and
defined
that
in
different
ways
in
the
short
term,
to
some
groups
that
meant
responding
to
covet
19
and
moving
effectively
and
safely
in
a
in
a
pandemic
world,
and
then,
in
the
longer
term,
other
groups
spoke
about
the
need
to
prioritize
safety
in
vision,
zero
and
effective
maintenance
of
our
network.
G
Next,
this
from
elias
and
betty,
we
need
more
public
transportation
in
underserved
areas
next
and
from
kiva
and
ernie
connectivity,
reliability
and
safety.
Probably
the
three
most
important
words
around
mobility.
So
I
hope
you
can
see
in
all
these
responses
that
all
the
groups
were
incredibly
insightful.
G
These
were
some
other
key
thoughts.
We
took
away
that
didn't
fit
neatly
into
the
three
prompts,
but
we
felt
like
we're
worth
highlighting
to
you
all.
You
all
really
enjoyed
the
homework.
We
heard
that
loud
and
clear
and
we
intend
to
give
you
more
opportunities
to
interact
with
each
other
outside
of
our
our
monthly
meetings.
G
G
Some
folks
underscored
the
need
to
think
long
term
and
mentioned
aspirations
related
to
children
and
grandchildren,
and
what
types
of
transportation
are
relevant
20
to
30
years
from
now,
and
then
a
good
reminder,
I
think
for
us
as
support
staff
to
you
all,
is
that
we
need
to
have
a
reminder
at
each
meeting
about
your
specific
mission
and
scope
so
that
you
all
can
prioritize
your
feedback
efficiently
toward
the
ultimate
goal
or
deliverable
of
this
task
force.
G
E
Well,
it
was
like
drinking
from
a
fire
hose
all
the
wonderful
things
that
you've
been
talking
about
and
what
you,
as
the
task
force,
have
been
dealing
with
in
your
homework
assignment.
I
I
want
to
now
turn
to
the
portion
of
this
agenda
that
talks
about
getting
your
reaction
to
what
we
just
heard.
You
you
say
I
guess
are
as
summarized
by
scott.
G
H
E
C
I
I
J
Or
william,
I'm
not
sure
if
william
wants
to
go.
Yes,.
I
Thank
you.
So
you
know
it
seems
like
so
I'm
really
impressed
and
has
off
the
the
towel
and
the
leadership
group
in
regards
to
the
2040
plan
and
the
thought
process
to
you.
I
Everything
through
an
equity
lens
because
it
seems
to
be
bleeding
through
with
most
of
the
things
that
we're
doing
and
it
seems
to
be
a
dominant,
a
dominant
assessment
of
every
action
that
we're
taking
as
a
city.
So
I
just
really
want
to
say
thank
you
to
to
those
folks
for
leading
in
the
way
that
you
know
hasn't
been
as
present
in
the
past.
So
hats
off
to
you
guys
and
thank
you
for
the.
J
Right
yep,
I
I
was
really
you
know,
inspiring
to
see
everybody's
comments
put
together
like
that
and
really
appreciate
kind
of
streamlining
it.
So
we
could
all
see
it
pretty
quickly.
I
know
it
was
a
lot,
but
you
know
I
do
appreciate
being
able
to
see
everybody's
comments.
Some
of
the
things
that
I
would
just
like
to
underscore
and
add
ad.
J
I
think
you
know,
hopefully,
when
we're
done
with
this
task
force,
that
we
complete
a
way
to
show
the
vision
of
you
know
those
goals
and
values
that
were
just
kind
of
shown
by
all
of
us.
J
You
know
equity
and
affordability,
and
I
I
would
like
to
be
able
to
see
how
we
we
could
wrap
and
tie
and
intertwine
the
funding
into
those
core
principles
and
goals.
I
would
also
like
to
be
able
to
see
like
for
everyone
to
be
able
to
see
a
vision,
this
vision
that
we're
putting
forth
on
that
the
plans
that
we
we
already
have
kind
of,
translating
that
into
something
that
voters
can
see
and
the
closer
we
can
get
to
being
able
to
show
them
what
their
lives
will
be.
J
When
this
this
investment
is
completed,
I
think
you
know,
as
close
as
we
can
get
to
show
okay,
they
could
see
on
the
map
where
they
live,
where
they
work
where
they
play.
You
know
how
all
that
is
connected.
Even
if
we
can
get
the
times.
You
know
the
cost
of
what
a
travel
trip
would
be.
You
know
the
time.
They'd
save
you
know
any
any
way.
We
can
be
able
to
visualize
that
so
folks
can
see
what
this
investment
will.
J
You
know
what
it
will
be
for
them,
what
what
they
get
out
of
it.
I
think
the
closer
we
get
to
that
the
easier
this
will
be
for
you
know
getting
it
in
front
of
the
voters
and
for
them
to
say
yes
on
this
investments.
C
C
C
Our
conversation
has
now
vastly
expanded,
as
it
should
have
a
long
time
ago
in
terms
of
how
we
connect
people
with
places
that
they
need
to
get
to
which
ultimately
leads,
I
think,
taiwa,
to
what
you're
trying
to
achieve
what
we're
trying
to
achieve
with
the
comp
plan,
which
is
having
a
much
better
conversation
about
how
do
we
intermingle
land
uses,
so
that,
as
we
talk
about
other
types
of
transportation
other
than
the
automobile
and
other
than
transit,
all
the
micro
mobility
options
and
human
powered
options
that
we
have
that
there's
somewhere
people
can
get
to.
C
In
a
reasonable
and
safe
fashion,
so
that
yields
a
land
use
element
but
stefania,
and
I
talked
extensively
about
gentrification
and
the
impact
that
that
has
had
and
our
observations
on
people
being
forced
to
move
from
areas
that
are
very
rich
in
transportation.
Options
to
areas
that
we
think
are
probably
not
pushing
them
farther
out.
While
those
of
us
that
live
in
the
areas
rich
enjoy
that.
K
K
You
know
we
absolutely
have
got
to
raise
that
as
a
wonderful
example
of
how
transportation
could
be
transformative-
and
you
know
we
think
about
the
university's
viability
because
we'll
be
easier
to
get
to,
but
the
broader
reach
you
know,
definitely
are
those
students
who
now
have
maybe
the
opportunity
for
a
four-year
education.
K
They
can
get
there
and
our
university
certainly
supports
black
and
brown
students,
and-
and
it's
just
going
to
be-
I
think,
a
wonderful
thing
for
the
entire
quarter,
obviously,
but
certainly,
and
specifically,
for
the
university.
M
M
I
keep
getting
this
feeling
of
being
overwhelmed
in
terms
of
what
we
really
want
to
do
or
need
to
do
to
be
to
have
a
transformational
plan
and
how
that
matches
up
against
the
voices
and
the
input
and
the
experience
of
actually
touching
the
people
that
are
in
the
community,
because
when
you,
when
you
look
at
what's
already
been
done
and
you
count
up
and
it's
great
work
and
you
know
all
the
different
community
opportunities
and
meetings
and
everything,
whether
it's
with
cats
or
these
other
efforts,
we're
touching
you
know
a
thousand
people
here
and
400
here
and
a
couple
thousand
here,
but
we've
got
a
region
of
a
couple
million
people
and
we
really
need
to.
M
M
Obviously
they
won't
agree
on
everything,
but
they
really
got
to
get
behind
this
and
they've
got
to
be
able
to
articulate
and
communicate
to
their
constituents,
no
matter
what
part
of
town
it
is
or
what
part
of
the
county
it
is
or
what
county
it
is
why
this
is
so
important
and
why
everybody's
got
to
work
together,
and
I
think
we've
had
some
great
comments
from
other
folks
already
about
how
we've
got
to
to
make
sure
this
covers
the
equity
piece
and
all
the
other
bits
around
making
sure
that
opportunities
are
met
for
everyone,
and
so
there's
a
there's
just
there's
a
way
to
weave
this
story
into
a
very
robust,
positive
vision
that,
frankly,
if
we
had
you
as
the
mayor
and
along
with
vi
our
current
mayor,
I'm
sure
you
two
could
put
it
together
and
get
everybody
to
buy
into
it.
M
E
E
J
I
I
was
basically
just
commenting
back
to
what
pedro
said
and
some
of
the
other
folks
about
you
know
improving
opportunities
for
the
for
the
folks
who
need
it.
The
most
is
critical,
and
on
top
of
that,
we
you
know
need
to
make
sure
that
we
figure
out
how
to
prevent
folks
from
getting
pushed
out
further
and
further
away
from
transportation
choices.
J
That
is,
you
know,
that's
that
in
itself
is
a
tricky
problem
to
solve,
even
if
you
know
not
mentioning
all
the
other
aspects
of
what
we're
trying
to
take
on
in
solving
mobility
here,
but
you
know
keeping
people
where
they
want
to
be
and
not
forcing
them
out
has
to
be
solved
sooner
rather
than
later
before
we
get
too
far
into
this,
and
and
folks
get
pushed
out
once
again.
O
Yeah,
I'm
struggling
a
little
bit
with
this
and
I
think
of
transformational,
I
like
what
pedro
said
when,
when
I
travel
around
the
world
and
go
to
different
cities,
there's
a
different
vibe
in
each
city
and
now
we're
right
in
the
middle
of
a
social
injustice,
social
equity
revolution.
So
to
speak.
There
are
some
cities
when
you
land
in
them
and
you
get
you
get
around
town
by
walking
or
biking
or
taking
the
bus.
O
You
feel
like
you're
part
of
the
community,
and
I
think
it
has
to
do
with
transportation
and
how
the
transportation
can
bring
people
together.
It's
not
just
getting
body
a
from
point,
a
to
point
b
and
up
in
new
jersey.
People
are
on
the
greenways
and
trails
and
they're
interacting
a
lot,
and
these
are
not
people
that
look
like
you
or
sound
like
you.
O
People
are
kind
of
forced
to
just
talk
with
each
other,
which
is
what
I
think
we
missed
now
right
in
charlotte,
where
we're
we're
a
big,
cosmopolitan
city,
but
we're
not
we're.
Not
we
don't
feel
friendly
like
we
are
like
some
of
the
other
cities
are,
and
I
think
transportation
has
the
opportunity
to
transform
chard
in
the
direction
of
that.
E
F
Yes,
okay.
I
I
just
wanted
to
build
on
that
great
point
from
carl
nick
and
I
had
a
wonderful
conversation
during
our
homework
assignment,
and
you
know
I'm
definitely
the
new
kid
on
the
block
when
it
comes
to
being
in
this
area
and
one
of
the
things
that
nick
shared
with
me
was
this
tension,
or
actually
you
know
the
history
of
charlotte
and
sort
of
going
after
big
things.
F
So
transformational
being
big,
bold
visions,
big
projects-
and
it
was
a
great
sort
of
history,
lesson
and
orientation
for
me
to
understand
sort
of
this.
This
context
that
I'm
I'm
now
working
in,
and
so
I
would
just
propose
back
to
the
group
you
know-
maybe
transformational
is
not
about
the
size
and
the
scale
of
the
dollar
amount
of
the
project.
That's
the
transformation
that
touching
one
person
with
improving
transportation
access
for
them.
It
transforms
their
experience.
It
transforms
how
they
see
the
city,
how
they
connect
with
people
kind
of
building
on
what
carl
said.
F
E
Thanks
matt
geraldine:
what's
the
definition
on
transformational,
others.
L
I
just
have
a
comment
mayor
grant.
This
is
elias
mohammed.
I
I
guess
we
pretty
much
have
discussed
on
every
corner
or
aspect
of
the
things.
What
we
are
working
towards.
Is
there
something
on
how
we
are
leveraging
technology
with
our
plants?
L
L
What
we
are
talking
about
are
there
any
plans
in
our
agenda
to
put
any
arts
or
culture
to
show
what
charlotte
city
represents?
L
E
That's
a
good
question
to
raise
leveraging
technology,
how
we
incorporate
art
into
our
city
to
make
us
have
livable
communities,
places
of
high
quality
places
people
want
to
go
to
and
that.
E
E
And
that
is
why
people
want
to
move
about
this
community.
Why
do
they
want
to
connect
and
what
do
they
want
to
connect
to?
And
it's
more
than
just
connecting
to
your
workplace
or
where
you
worship,
or
where
you
shop,
that
the
city
itself
ought
to
have
some
additional
meaning
and
some
magnetic
effect
that
causes
people
to
want
to
move,
and
I
I'm
not
sure
we
can
answer
all
of
that
on
the
issues
of
how
we
move
people
about
the
community.
E
But
what
you're
saying
is
people
will
move
if
there
are
things
to
move
to
and
if
we
leverage
technology
in
a
way
that
gives
the
experience
of
being
a
part
of
a
city
a
great
deal
of
meaning
that
that's
very
insightful.
In
my
opinion,
I
want
to
throw
out
one
thing
and
I'm
sure
there's
some
other
folks
who
want
to.
E
E
E
The
hard
work
that
we
will
have
to
do
is
deciding
on
transformat
of
transformational
network
and
whether
that's
tied
to
what
we
think
charlotte
can
afford
or
the
region
can
afford.
That's
what's
been
revolving
through
my
mind,
because
I
could
see
at
the
end
of
the
day
that
someone's
going
to
tell
us
down
the
road.
You
got
five,
you
got
one
billion
dollars
to
spend
and
then
we
got
a
fight
to
figure
out.
E
E
This
is
worth
it
to
us
to
do
this
because
we
will
build
a
city.
I
saw
someone
talk
about
their
grandchildren
and
great
grandchildren.
We
will
build
a
city
that
will
at
least
set
in
place
the
routes
for
moving
on
to
a
greater
community.
I
I'm
I'm
I'm
wanting
to
hear
some
feedback
on
that.
Do
we
design
the
transformational
network
to
fit
what
we
perceive
to
be,
what
we
can
afford,
or
do
we
do
something
that
really
excites
the
imagination
and
deals
with
these
excellent?
These
themes
of
connectivity
and
equity
and
choices.
E
E
I
I
But
if
you
can't
clearly
articulate
to
me
how
I'm
going
to
benefit
from
it,
then
I
no
I'm
not
going
to
support
it.
No,
I'm
not
going
to
want
my
taxes
to
go
up
to
support
something
that
I'm
not
going
to
benefit
from,
but
I
think
in
this
conversation
and
to
your
point,
I
think
that
would
be
truly
transformational
where
we
can
reach
a
wider
group
of
our
community
and
we
can
articulate
how
it
benefits
everyone.
I
think
people
would
vote
for
it
on
bonds
and
I
think
it
would
pass
so.
I
A
B
Yeah,
thank
you
so
much
I
you
know.
I
don't
think
these
are
mutually
exclusive.
I
think
with
a
million
dollars,
you
can
do
something
transformational,
I
think,
with
30
billion
dollars.
You
can
do
something
transformational,
it's
about
the
scale
at
which
that
transformation
is
that
determines
the
dollar
figure.
B
I
would
not
be
willing
to
vote
or
support
any
kind
of
project
that
bankrupts
our
city.
I
think
that's
a
bad
idea.
I
think
you
build
a
great
transportation
program,
and
yet
no
one
can
afford
to
live
here,
especially
those
in
communities
that
need
more
opportunity,
making
their
property
taxes
and
their
sales
tax
and
putting
regressive
taxes
on
them
is
a
horrible
idea.
B
So
I
I
don't
think
that
those
are
mutually
exclusive,
though
I
think
if
you
make
the
business
case
that
if
you
take
40
percent
of
cars
off
of
our
roads,
you
can
save
x,
y
and
z,
then
let's
make
the
business
case,
but
I
don't
think
we
sit
here
and
say
we'll
figure
out
how
to
pay
for
it.
Later.
I
don't
think
that's
good
for
any
citizen
of
charlotte.
B
We
should
come
up
with
the
plan
and
we
should
say
our
plan
should
be
those
things
that
we
can
afford
and
if
we're
creative
in
our
business
case-
and
we
understand
the
real
opportunities
that
this
transformational
project
can
do,
then
we
should
be
able
to
say
that
I'm
taking
money
from
here,
but
I'm
putting
it
somewhere
else,
the
investment
10
years
down
the
road
that
we
have
to
do
for
roads
is
no
longer
necessary.
And
so
we
can
look
at
the
time
value
of
money
and
bring
that
forward
and
say.
B
E
Thanks
chris
did
I
get
another
anybody
else
want
to
contribute
to
this
conversation.
That's
a
very
interesting
perspective.
K
Just
real
quick,
your
invitation
to
think
more
broadly
mayor
gant
is,
is
compelling,
and
I
think
carl's
comments
really
landed
on
me
just
a
moment
ago
with
regard
to
the
feel
of
our
city
and
the
friendliness
and
how
transportation
can
impact
that,
but
thinking
more
broadly,
which
again,
I
think
you
just
gave
us
the
invitation
to
do.
I
mean
to
me
now
that
has
everything
to
do
with
land
use
too,
which
I
haven't
been
thinking
about
in
the
context
of
this
committee.
It's
all
right.
We
build.
K
You,
know
this
transit
system
to
to
change.
If
you
will
the
feel
and
and
flow
of
our
city
well,
where
to
now
now
I
care
about
land
usage
and
where
you
know
where
to
and
the
connectivity
of
those
two
things
which
now
tonight
it's
much
broader
than
what
I
was
feeling
when
I
got
on
the
phone
or
on
the
call.
N
E
P
Yes,
oh
okay,
I'm
not
sure
if
I'm
opera,
this
is
sonya
smith.
Can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
I
wanted
to
just
add
to
this
conversation
kind
of,
like
I'm
thinking
in
terms
of
this
transformational,
that
that
word
kind
of
just
resonates
with
me
in
my
broader
goal
of
my
broader
vision
of
of
what
I
see
as
far
as
transportation
and
and
what
it
does
and
how
it
affects
our
community.
P
When
I
look
at
all
the
things
that
people
have
said,
all
of
that
resonates
with
me,
but
what
I
was
thinking
was
in
terms
of
how
to
pay
for
this,
and
I'm
thinking
that,
when
we're
looking
at
these,
like,
we
talked
about
where
we
looked
at
when
we
were
listening
to
that
the
other.
The
the
plan
that
the
young
lady
put
the
regional
plan,
that
was
that
was
put
forth
before
us
at
the
beginning
of
this
meeting.
P
When
I
think
about
those
major
arteries,
those
major
corridors,
I'm
thinking
in
terms
of
of
companies
that
that
that
could
be
stationed
along
those
corridors
that
could
have
easy
access
as
far
as
jobs
are
concerned.
P
But
companies
that
would
would
that
that
that
would
that
build
the
kind
of
the
new
technology,
those
new
jobs
and
and
that
our
schools
like
johnson
c
smith
and
and
unc
charlotte
and
other
queens
university
and
in
other
schools
around
the
the
region
that,
where,
where
students
could
be
gaining
those
skills,
the
central
piedmont
of
community
colleges
where
students
could
be
gaining
those
skills
to
work
in
those
particular
company
and
work
work
at
those
particular
companies
that
are
bringing
on
this
new
technology.
This.
This.
P
This
new,
this
new
revolution,
this
new
environment
as
far
as
job
opportunities,
people
getting
those
type
skills
and
then
and
then
all
of
in
and
as
a
result
of
of
having
transportation
connect
and
then
having
those
companies.
Help
pay
for
this,
because
they're
gonna
be
benefiting
from
having
employees
that
that
have
the
skill
sets
that
they
need
to
function
in
this
new
economy.
P
P
As
a
whole
and
be
able
to
enjoy
all
the
fun
things
that
we're
talking
about
as
far
as
connectivity
and
culture
and
all
of
that,
and
so
I'm
thinking
of
that
that
that
phrase
that
all
bolts
rise
and
so
in
in
and
and
helping
to
help
pay
for
this
thing,
getting
back
to
the
point
that
I
really
want
to
make,
I'm
thinking
companies
can
can
help
come
in
and
help
pay
for
this
stuff.
P
I
know
that's
just
one
little
thing,
but
companies
that
are
going
to
benefit
from
the
the
new
workers
that
are
that
are
going
to
come
about
as
a
as
a
result
of
us
being
thought
of
us
thoughtfully
planning
how
this
is
gonna
going
to
look
in
in
our
future.
That's
about
it!
Thank
you.
J
Mayor
it's
eric,
I
would.
I
would
like
to
add
that
I
think
the
latter
part
of
your
your
question
going
bolder,
more
transformational,
making
the
vision,
the
plan.
You
know
in
a
way
that
folks
can
get
excited
about
it
is
needed.
I
mean
you
can't
you
can't
drive
people
to
vote
yes
or
to
support
something.
J
You
know
that
people
aren't
very
excited
about,
and
I
think
you
know
you
have
to
communicate
that,
like
I
mentioned
earlier
and
a
vision
and
clearly
show
people
what
they're
getting,
but
it
you
know
paying
that
the
costs
as
chris
you
know
was
mentioning.
J
I
think
if
we
lay
out
a
thoughtful
plan
you
know
in
in
and
do
it
in
phases.
You
know
say
a
three
year
or
and
then
ten
year
and
then
a
twentieth,
you
could
spread
those
costs,
so
you
could
have
these
just
bigger,
more
exciting
plans,
putting
pulling
all
the
vision
into
reality
and
kind
of
spread
that
over
you
know
over
time,
like
broward
county
showed
us
how
they
successfully
did
that
with
you
know,
just
a
one
cent
sales
tax
increase.
J
I
think
you
know
that's
not
going
to
you
know
what
people
will
get
in
return
for
that
that
penny
on
every
sale.
You
know
they
were,
they
may
not
have
to
have
a
car
payment.
You
know.
Think
of
you
know
not
owning
a
car
not
having
force
to
drive
everywhere.
You
went,
there's
no
car
insurance,
there's
no
car
payments,
you're
spending
more
money,
that
money,
you're,
saving,
you're
spending,
locally
you're,
putting
it
back
into
the
local
economy,
and
I
think
all
of
those
things
can
be
done.
J
You
know
as
long
as
it's
thoughtful,
it's
planned
out.
It's
complete
you!
You
know
I
I,
whenever
I
talk
to
folks
about
urban
planning
and
kind
of
what
just
mentioned
the
the
land
use
piece
of
it,
not
thinking
about
that.
Well,
you
know,
I
always
explained
it
as
baking.
You
know
I
used
to
bake.
I
don't
have
any
time
to
bake
anymore,
but
baking.
You
know
you
have
all
these
ingredients
now.
J
If
you
leave
one
out,
you
know
the
whole
thing
could
turn
out
horrible
or
if
you
put
too
much
flour
in
and
not
enough
sugar
or
you
know
whatever
it
is
with
the
ingredients,
you
have
to
first
of
all
make
sure
you
have
all
of
them
and
you
have
to
put
them
in
proportionate
for
it
all
to
come
together.
The
chemistry
in
transportation,
land
use,
the
design
is
all
kind
of
chemical
when
it
comes
together.
J
Going
back
to
what
carl
mentioned
too,
that
bringing
the
ingredients,
that's
bringing
the
people
the
design
together
to
create
this
chemical
reaction,
which
is
the
experience
which
then
relates
to
transformational
quality
of
life
for
the
residents,
and
I
think
that's
what
drives
people
to
visit
the
cities
that
carl
was
mentioning.
You
know
people
want
to
be
there,
they
want
to
live
there
and
you
know,
brings
the
businesses
and
the
economy,
and
I
think
all
of
that
will
grow
if
we
get
it
right.
J
If
we
miss
this
opportunity,
we
leave
out
an
ingredient
or
two.
You
know
it's
going
to
drive
folks
away
from
this,
because
if
other
cities
get
that
recipe
for
what
is
working
and
they
invest
in
it
all
of
the
ingredients
put
together.
E
There
have
been
some
good
points
made
and
I
sent
I
sensed.
There
is
an
aching
for
us
to
figure
out
a
number
of
things.
Chris
speaks
to
affordability,
which
is
very
important,
he's
absolutely
right.
We
can't
end
up
putting
something
out
before
the
public
that
bankrupts
the
city.
I
think
we
all
understand
that.
E
What
we
don't
know
right
now
is
what
the
city
could
do,
what
our
portion
might
be,
what
these,
what
this
transformational
plan
might
cost
and
those
are
items
that
we're
going
to
be
getting
into
in
substantial
detail
in
upcoming
meetings,
but
I
simply
wanted
to
to
get
a
gauge
from
the
task
force.
Members.
E
I
I'm
an
architect
by
training.
There
was
a
very
famous
landscape
architect.
That
said,
make
no
little
plans
because
they
don't
have
the
ability
to
stir
men.
They
don't
have
the
energy
to
cause
people
to
think
creatively
and
to
see
the
future,
and
I
want
to
keep
that
before
us.
When
we
talk
about
transformation,
we're
not
talking
about
we're.
E
If
there
are
no
other
questions,
then
we
might
move
on
to
a
discussion
now
of
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
just
a
minute.
There
was
a
question
I
want
to
go
back
to.
I
think
ron
ross
wanted
to
talk
back
about
something
geraldine
said
earlier
talking
about
connect
beyond.
E
E
Let's
go
to
the
next
item
on
the
agenda,
which
will
be
the
mobility
network
itself,
the
transformational
mobility
network
and.
N
Yes,
thank
you
very
much
mayor
gans,
really
exciting
conversations
you
all
are
having
I
here
and
I'm
saying
I'm
loving
it
hearing
all
of
this
and
really
really
good
segue
to
what
we're
about
to
share
with
you,
starting
with
the
next
slide,
which
is
the
next
few
slides,
are
really
more
of
a
reminder,
as
you
requested
as
part
of
your
homework.
He
wanted
us
to
remind
you
of
the
mission
of
why
you're
here
what
you're
here
to
accomplish.
N
We
started
this
whole
conversation
back
in
may,
with
this
five-point
approach
of
this
is
the
charge
of
the
charlotte
most
task
force,
but
also
that,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
when
you
deliver
something
to
male
lives
and
counsel
and
the
community,
it
will
be
recommending
a
mobility
network
to
to
them
that
the
community
can
support.
The
council
can
really
have
an
opportunity
to
dialogue
around
it
and
and
present
to
to
the
community
for
a
future
discussion,
and
so
reminding
you
of
that
today
again
that
this
is
a
platform
for
civic
engagement.
N
We've
reviewed
existing
plans
with
you
and
we'll
continue
to
go
back
to
that.
One
of
the
things
that
I
shared
with
you
by
email
yesterday
was
a
summary
of
the
engagement
activities
that
we've
had
with
each
one
of
those
plans,
and
so
we're
hearing
you
we're
hearing
the
community
and
we'll
continue
to
do
that
as
we
go
forward.
N
But
today,
on
the
next
slide,
we
want
to
kind
of
just
take
you
back
to
where
mayor
lyles
joined
us
at
the
june
meeting
when
she
referred
to
the
shallow
future
2040
comprehensive
plan
as
our
north
star
that
that's
what's
going
to
guide
us
as
to
where
we're
going,
what
our
vision
is
and
what
we
are
really
to
be
developing,
and
this
goes
back
again
to
the
some
of
the
things
that
you
said
as
part
of
the
homework
talking
about
providing
a
safe
and
equitable
mobility
integrated
network
for
travelers,
regardless
of
age,
regardless
of
income
ability,
race
wherever
they
live
or
how
they
choose
to
travel.
N
We've
had
a
lot
of
this
from
your
conversations
tonight
and
we've
had
this
reflected
also
in
the
homework,
but
remember
those
five
guiding
principles
there
that
shallow,
whatever
that
transformational
mobility
network
is
at
the
end
of
the
day.
It's
going
to
accomplish
this,
I
will
check
whatever
the
scale
may
be.
It's
got
to
accomplish
days
of
creating
a
livable
and
connected
city,
a
healthy
and
sustainable
community,
prosperous
and
innovative
environment.
N
I
think
elias
talked
about
technology,
leveraging
technological
ideas,
but
inclusive
and
diverse,
very
diverse
community,
as
well
as
understanding
the
role
that
charlotte
plays
in
this
region.
So
it's
not
just
about
us
as
a
city,
but
as
a
region,
but
also
at
the
end
of
the
day
that
transformational
mobility
network
must
be
one
that's
integrated
and
not
just
catering
to
transit
or
even
roadways,
but
also
talking
about
bikeways
sidewalks
trails
and
things
that
really
make
sure
that
every
charlottean
can
really
be
proud
of
our
city.
N
Next
slide
and
again
we
talked
about
these
being
a
coordinated
effort,
and
so
we
started
with
a
strategic
mobility
plan
which
really
goes
back
again
to
what
male
again
just
referred
to
a
few
minutes
ago.
So
maybe
in
20
years
time
we're
talking
about
mode
shift
between
single
occupant
vehicles,
people
who
take
transit
or
people
who
carpool
or
folks
who
even
a
bike
to
work.
What
does
that
look
like
the
strategy?
N
Mobility
plan
will
be
talking
to
us
about
that,
but
then
part
of
that
really,
though,
is
the
work
of
this
charlotte
most
task
force.
The
the
strategic
mobility
plan
started
at
the
same
time
as
the
stars
first
started
meeting,
and
it
will
continue
definitely
through
the
early
summer
of
2021,
but
we
know
that
the
work
of
this
task
force
effectively
results
in
a
deliverable
to
the
community
and
to
council
in
december,
but
we
don't
want
that
to
be
the
end.
N
We
want
you
to
still
be
able
to
see
what
the
outcome
of
your
work
is
and
how
that's
reflected
in
that
strategic
mobility
plan
that
eventually
will
be
adopted
by
council,
but
while
all
of
that
is
going
on,
we
know
we're
hearing
you
clearly.
What's
the
funding
strategy
from
tonight,
you're
gonna
begin
to
see
what
the
network
of
opportunities
will
look
like,
but
also
when
we
come
back
in
september,
we're
going
to
start
talking
about
financial
funding
tools.
What
are
those
things
that
we're
able
to
do
today?
What's
on
the
table?
For
us?
N
What
are
those
things
that
we
could
be
asking
if
we're
going
to
go
big,
we're
going
to
have
to
go
big
within
reason,
reason
right
and
we're
going
to
have
to
make
sure
that
we
develop
a
funding
strategy
that
not
only
looks
at
one
funding
mechanism
but
looks
at
multiple,
and
so
we
don't
want
your
work
to
end
with
the
discussions
that
we're
having
around
this
day,
but
that
it
continues.
N
Having
that
conversation
among
yourselves,
but
also
with
the
community
and
then
with
with
our
council
next
slide,
someone
talked
about
making
sure
that
it's
not
just
a
list
of
projects
but
something
that's
visual
when
you
think
about
denver
when
you
think
about
seattle,
these
are
examples
of
what
they've
done,
where
it's
not
just
a
list
of
projects
or
what
they
look
like.
But
really
what
would
they
really?
When
someone
who
lives
in
east
charlotte
looks
at
this
map
they
can
answer
the
question.
N
Can
I
really
get
to
the
west
side
of
the
city
in
a
seamless
fashion?
If
someone
lives
on
the
south
side
and
they
actually
have
to
come
up
town
they
talk
about,
can
I
really
get
uptown
without
having
to
drive
and
be
stuck
in
traffic,
and
so
they
should
be
able
to
see
a
map
and
not
just
a
list,
I'm
able
to
say
yeah.
I
really
can't
do
that.
N
So,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
what
we're
going
to
be
sharing
with
you
tonight,
if
I
hand
off
to
stephen,
is
going
to
be
eventually
displayed
in
a
graphic
fashion,
where
you're
able
to
see
transit
corridors,
you're,
able
to
see
biking,
trails
and
pedestrian
trails
and
how
all
of
these
connect
you
know
with
each
other,
but
tonight
begins
that
conversation.
N
Stephen
is
going
to
walk
us
through
some
buckets
that
we've
kind
of
put
together
of
what's
possible.
I
call
it
blue
sky
and
probably
will
form
the
basis
of
your
next
homework,
but
I
hope
that
it
will
also
result
in
a
very
vigorous
conversation
after
it's
done,
presenting
it
to
you
just
like
we
we've
had
a
few
minutes
ago
and
so
before.
N
Turning
it
over
to
stephen,
I
want
to
say
that
in
some
way,
what
we're
going
to
be
sharing
with
you
really
reflects
the
results
of
your
homework
and
the
results
of
what
we've
heard
from
the
plans
and
policies
that
we've
developed
before.
N
But
it's
also
going
to
be
something
that
you
can
really
help
us
to
to
think
through
and
not
just
about
roadways,
but
also
about
transit,
about
pedestrian
connection,
about
trails
and
and
all
of
those
things
that
make
a
city
a
city
that
people
really
truly
want
to
be
proud
that
they
belong
to.
So
I
would
turn
this
over
to
mail
gantt
and
then,
if
he
has
anything
to
say
before
stephen
takes
you
to
the
next
few
slides
next
slide.
D
Great,
thank
you
tai.
This
has
been
a
great
meeting.
I
got
to
tell
you,
I
think,
we're
probably
trending
right
now,
just
incredible
dis
discussion
this
evening
and
and
yet,
as
I
take
copious
notes,
I'm
sure
that
there's
still
some
of
us
wondering
here
again.
What
does
this
network
look
like
that?
D
We're
going
to
be
creating
together
and
in
essence,
I
think,
there's
a
few
things
that
we
need
to
remember
if,
if
we
package
this
up,
we're
going
to
need
a
framework
for
how
to
organize
our
recommendations
and
it
needs
to
be
able
to
be
supported
with
a
series
of
maps.
I
think
that's
pretty
clear,
but
I
also
know
that,
based
on
tonight's
conversation,
we
should
be
able
to
communicate
the
influence
that
we
expect.
This
transformational
mobility
network
will
have
on
our
community.
D
D
We've
been
thinking
a
lot
about
the
logical
framework
that
we
might
use
to
assemble
these
opportunities,
and
I
I
want
you
to
think
of
these
as
funding
categories
right
now,
we're
by
no
means
to
borrow
eric's
metaphor
that
we're
not
baked
this
this
cake
just
yet
so
we're
we're
assembling
our
ingredients
and
we're
building
the
airplane
a
little
bit
as
we
go,
and
I
appreciate
the
liberty
with
what
you're
giving
us
to
do
so,
but
we
need
to
allow
ourselves
to
be
influenced
by
what
we're
learning
through
the
process,
and
I
I
know
that
you've
been
inundated
with
a
lot
of
information
about
existing
plans,
and
so
we've
been
studying
them
as
well
and
trying
to
better
understand
how
they're
organized
we've
been
listening
to
peer
communities.
D
Thinking
about
lessons
learned
from
that,
and
I
think
we
learned
a
lot
from
tonight's
homework-
I
just
I
can't
tell
you
how
much
I
think
it's
brought
some
clarity
to
to
the
conversation
just
to
hear
from
you
about
your
specific
thoughts.
So
I
mean,
in
short,
we
you
know:
we've
come
up
with
essentially
six
categories.
D
I
think
we,
you
know
we
could
have
had
as
many
as
20.
We
could
have
done
as
few
as
three,
but
we
landed
on
six
for
right
now,
and
I
just
want
to.
I
want
to
reiterate
this
is
draft
for
the
moment.
So,
let's,
let's
go
on
to
the
next,
the
next
slide,
and
essentially
these
these
six
categories,
and
I
hope
that
you
can
read
them-
include
things
that
should
be
familiar.
D
D
We've
got
a
lot
of
things
that
we
can
and
should
be
populating
these
categories
with.
I
want
to
caution
us.
I
don't
believe
that
it's
just
an
assemblage
of
all
the
plans
together
that
that
probably
just
dilutes
our
efforts,
but
it
does
suggest
that
there's
a
central
repository
from
which
we
could
be
inspired
to
select
things
from.
D
D
Essentially,
these
are
facilities
and
and
services
such
as
our
light
rail
system,
but
it
also
would
include
some
additions,
like
things
you've
heard
about
in
past
meetings,
bus,
rapid
transit
and
otherwise,
and
there's
some
specific
examples
listed
here,
some
of
which
that
we're
in
the
midst
of
planning
for
some
are
those
that
are
things
that
are
yet
to
come.
And
so
I
don't
want
to
spend
too
much
time
on
a
concept
that
I
know
you
already
get,
but
suffice
it
to
say
that
that
category
is
fairly
clearly
pronounced
at
this
point
in
time.
D
D
D
Little
sugar
creek
is,
as
just
one
example
of
many,
but
there's
great
plans
right
now
to
better
connect
our
region
through
similar
facilities,
and
we've
listed
a
few
of
these.
We
don't
need
you
to
become
an
expert
necessarily
in
the
network,
but
we
know
that
this
can't
serve
a
new
role
in
providing
opportunities
for
travel.
This
is
not
just
recreation
anymore
when
we
start
contemplating
our
ability
to
connect
employment
centers,
for
example,
or
neighborhoods
that
otherwise
don't
have
access
to
other
modes
of
transportation.
D
If
our
network
right
now
only
supports
the
fearless
bike
riders,
then
we're
missing
the
opportunity
to
better
leverage
that
as
a
mode
of
travel,
that's
incredibly
affordable
that
is
accessible
to
almost
all,
and
so
we
believe
that
maybe
a
category
in
and
of
itself
to
represent
a
network
that
better
connects
our
streets.
Our
neighborhoods,
our
employment
centers,
could
serve
us
well
next
category.
D
And
obviously
all
of
you
know
that,
because
you
did
such
a
great
job
with
your
homework
this
past
month,
that
you
were
likely
to
receive
another
one.
Fortunately,
for
us,
your
surveys
and
your
results
indicated
that
you
were
willing
to
provide
us
that
level
of
information.
D
I
think
the
next
thing
that
really
began
to
resonate-
and
I
think
we
got
lucky
with
this-
because
we
authored
these
questions
before
tonight,
but
your
dialogue
focused
so
much
about
some
of
the
cautionary
tales.
Carl,
you
said
be
careful
that
this
doesn't
become
transactional
and
bill.
You
did
a
great
job
suggesting
that
we
not
lose
sight
of
what
we're
really
trying
to
achieve,
and
I
think
in
essence
what
I'm
hearing
is.
D
And
if
that's
the
case,
we
we
need
to
ask
you
questions
not
just
about
what
projects
are
of
interest
to
you,
but
really.
What
are
the
outcomes
and
community
benefits
that
you
would
expect
to
see
20
years
from
now,
if
we
were
to
make
a
large
ask
of
our
community
and
make
an
investment
in
building
this
transformational
mobility
network
and
so
we'd
like
for
you
to
really
contemplate?
What
does
that
mean?
And
I'm
going
to
throw
some
examples
out
just
so.
D
And
then
the
last
item
is,
as
you
can
imagine,
to
reflect
on
those
buckets
that
I
I
put
forward
just
a
moment
ago.
The
transformational
mobility
opportunity
buckets:
could
it
be
any
longer
and
and
really
help
us
fill
them
up?
I
know
that
we
as
a
technical
team,
could
go
through
and
mine
the
existing
plans
and
seek
to
find
those
things
that
we
believe
are
most
transformational
at
this
moment
in
time.
D
But
I
also
know
that
mayor
lyles
asked
you
all
to
participate
for
good
reasons.
You
represent
different
geographies
throughout
the
community,
different
perspectives,
different
experiences,
different
demographic
and
different
cohorts,
and
with
that
in
mind,
we'd
really
like
to
just
get
your
your
reaction
about
the
things
that
may
work.
D
There
may
be
a
need
for
you
to
have
some
some
fairly
broad
set
of
items
that
fit
within
those
buckets
that
link
back
to
your
expectations.
So
don't
want
to
put
boundaries
on
what
you
populate
in
those
buckets.
Now
I
don't
need
you
to
write
these
things
down,
as
with
our
last
month's
homework
assignment.
D
What
we'll
do
is
we'll
send
a
packet
out
so
that
you
can
work
in
small
groups
towards
populating
each
of
these
questions
with
answers
that
you
feel
are
important
for
us
to
hear,
as
we
continue
down
the
path
of
our
technical
work
and,
and
with
that
mayor,
I
I
kind
of
like
to
see,
if
there's
any
gut
reaction
to
these
three
questions.
If
there's
time.
E
C
E
C
Thanks,
I
continue
to
wrestle
with
the
geography
that
we
are
trying
to
cover
with
this
geraldine
took
us
through
a
bi-state
geography,
but
the
bike
and
ped
plans
that
we
talk
about
are
charlotte
centric.
So,
as
we
think
about
what
the
transportation
needs
might
be
within
our
region
or
our
city,
those
might
vary.
The
amounts
that
we
would
want
to
put
in
the
buckets
in
the
different
buckets
just
think
about
that.
J
You
caught
that
mayor,
yes,
you
know-
and
I
and
I
could
put
that
into
the
homework-
and
you
know
it's
expound
upon
a
little
bit
more,
but
I
I'm
been
involved
in
that
task
force
as
well,
and
I
think
there's
a
great
opportunity
to
include
you
know.
Funding
resources
to
be
able
to
you
know,
treat
the
tree
canopy,
especially
in
the
right
of
way,
that's
connected
to
the
pedestrian
and
the
sidewalks
as
not
a
separate
thing,
but
as
a
vital
piece
of
that
infrastructure.
J
That
is
needed,
especially
you
know.
We
we
live
in
north
carolina,
it's
the
south,
you
know
seems
like
it's
getting
hotter
every
summer
and
a
longer
summer.
So
I
think
you
know,
including
that
as
a
piece
of
it
should
should
really
be.
You
know,
thought
through.
Thank
you.
E
L
American,
thank
you
so
much
for
the
opportunity,
so
I
I
saw
this
in
our
materials
of
strategic
energy
action
plan.
That's
really
awesome.
I
mean
if
you
can
really
put
something
more
in
our
conversations
and
discussions.
That
would
be
great
and
I
in
the
presentation
steve
just
have
provided
to
us.
The
technology
used
part
I
liked
it
most
and
that's
what
I
was
trying
to
mention
earlier
in
my
comments.
So
thank
you.
E
Let
me
turn
to
the
public
comments,
because
I
think
these
these
are
very
important
and
I'm
very
impressed
with
the
number
of
people
who
have
turned
into
our
meeting
tonight
and
and
had
a
number
of
important
things
to
say.
I
was
trying
to
see
if
I
could
summarize
them
inside
of
about
a
few
minutes.
E
E
E
They
would
support
at
least
a
50
50
mode
shift
goal
on
transportation,
and
I
think
they're,
seeing
between
the
car
and
what
other
modes
we
might
use,
and
they
thank
you
all
for
your
participation
and
hope
you
will
support
bold
investment
in
public
transportation
to
improve
our
city,
so
it
came
from
dave,
walsh,
nancy
carter
said
I
hope
we
will
get
the
light
rail
from
east
to
west,
especially
close
to
small
businesses
to
serve
communities
that
will
enrich
our
community
and
maureen
gillusky.
E
I
hope
I
pronounced
your
name
correctly,
a
city
and
the
city
and
the
county
need
to
work
together
to
collaborate
on
a
master
plan
to
create
value
and
livability.
In
all
the
communities
and
christina
danas
says
in
the
spirit
of
equity,
it
is
necessary
to
provide
allocation
of
resources
to
the
west
and
east
communities.
E
E
E
Maddie
marshall
says
20
or
30
years
from
now,
transformational
means
a
drone
mobile
car,
not
sure
what
that
is,
but
a
skyway,
and
it
also
means
connectivity
in
a
smart
way
and
then
she
says
she
gets
back
down
the
basics,
complete
the
goal
line
in
phase
three
and
in
the
well.
She
points
out
that
in
the
1900s
there
were
street
cars,
and
this
was
a
very
smart
approach
which
was
abandoned,
of
course,
for
cars.
E
Let's
see,
I've
got
a
few
more
here,
maureen
galewski
of
charlotte's-
and
I
think
I
started
reading
this
one
earlier.
How
are
mobility
gaps
being
prioritized
and
funded
for
the
transportation
corridors?
E
E
E
E
E
Nikhil
bonaparte
says
moving
phase.
Three
of
the
gold
line
would
be
very
easily
would
very
easily
reduce
the
automotive
traffic
in
the
center
city,
and
I
can't
pronounce
this
name,
but
she
said
it's
not
bankrupting
the
city,
but
taking
small
pieces
of
pieces
of
money
and
addressing
an
issue.
An
issue
partially
is
why
we
are
where
we
are
today.
E
I
guess
she's
saying
halfway
doing
something
is
not
good
either
and
then
ron
ross
says
an
assessment
of
what
projects
are
needed
or
desired
will
result
in
determining
the
cost
and
I'm
down
to
the
last
one.
Does
the
connect
beyond
process
look
at
specific
needs
or
an
overall
assessment
of
all
that
is
needed?
E
E
So
people
have
been
watching
and
they
have
been
ready
to
comment.
I'm
delighted
to
hear
those
comments.
We
record
those
and
take
those
into
account
as
we
further
deliberate
down
the
road.
Now,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
ed
mckinney
who's.
Going
to
tell
you
about
this
survey
slide,
that's
coming
in.
G
Actually
I'll
take
that
so
the
the
public
survey
is
is
live
now
we
previewed
this
last
month
and
let
you
know
that
this
was
in
development
and
would
be
coming.
We
have
a
a
specific
ask
of
the
the
task
force
members
this
evening.
We
will
be
sharing
the
survey
link
with
you.
We
would
love
it
if
you
would
first
of
all
take
the
survey.
Obviously
we
value
your
input.
G
We
want
to
know
what
you
have
to
say,
but
just,
as
importantly,
please
distribute
it
to
your
professional
and
personal
networks.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
distributing
this
widely
if
any
of
you
represent
neighborhood
organizations
that
maybe
have
newsletters
or
email
blasts
or
social
media
feeds.
Please
consider
sending
the
survey
out
on
on
those
channels
as
well,
and
we
will
plan
to
share
some
of
the
initial
results
with
you
in
in
the
coming
months
as
we
work
together.
Thank.
E
You
todd:
will
you
tell
me,
tell
the
task
force
how
you're
going
to
handle
these
public
comments
that
are
going
to
be
coming
in,
and
I
suspect,
they're
going
to
be
more
and
more
as
we
proceed
into.
N
Yes,
thank
you
may
again,
so
do
we
collate
in
all
the
public
comments,
and
we
make
sure
that
we
reflect
those
in
in
a
number
of
ways,
one
the
homework
assignment
that
we
give
to
the
task
force.
We
try
and
incorporate
some
of
the
thoughts
and
the
comments
and
then
in
the
presentations
that
we
ultimately
make
bring
to
this
group.
We
make
sure
that
we
reflect
those
as
well.
There
are
certain
areas
also
where
some
of
those
comments
are
addressed
that
are
not
necessarily
limited
to
the
task
force.
N
For
example,
next
week
I
will
be
presenting
this
to
the
intergovernmental
relations
committee,
which
is
made
up
of
representatives
from
city
council
as
well
as
county
commissioners,
and
so
the
question
with
regards
to
coordination
between
city
and
council.
I
will
be
bringing
that
up
there
as
well.
That's
the
purpose
for
that
inter-governmental
relations
and
then,
on
september,
1st,
hopefully
I'll,
be
presenting
an
update
to
the
board
of
commissioners
county
commissioners
on
the
work
that
the
task
force
has
been
doing
up
on
to
this
present
time.
N
So
that's
kind
of
how
we've
been
responding
to
this
and,
in
some
other
ways,
the
the
transportation
and
planning
and
environmental
committee
of
the
city
council.
Usually
we
present
silver
line,
light
ray
project
update
to
them,
and
we
talk
about
connection
between
east
and
west
where
it
comes
to
the
light
rail.
We
know
there
will
be
a
community
engagement
on
that
in
september.
N
So
some
of
those
comments
that
you
may
not
find
here
in
this
task
force,
we
do
address
them
in
some
other
ways,
so
please
keep
them
coming
with
regards
to
paratransit,
I
think
there
was
a
question
that
just
came
in
now
about
paratransit
and
make
sure
that
we
consider
a
community
with
disabilities.
N
Yes,
this
bucket
of
projects
that
we
share
with
you
as
we
present
the
homework
assignment
to
the
task
force.
We
make
sure
that
that's
also
covered
in
there
as
well.
N
Again,
please
continue
to
reach
out
to
your
network
with
the
survey
and
we
want
to
get
as
much
information
as
possible
so
that
when
we
come
in
september,
not
only
do
we
want
to
talk
about
what
we've
shared
with
you
tonight,
but
we
also
begin
to
dig
into
some
funding
tools,
you're
likely
going
to
be
hearing
from
our
chief
financial
officer
at
that
point
as
well,
so
just
wanted
to
bring
leave
that
with
you
and
then
I
will
turn
it
over
to
mayo
gun.
Thank
you.
E
E
I
want
to
remind
you
that
next,
the
next
meeting
is
in
september
september
17th
same
time
and
here's
what
I've
been
thinking
you're
not
going
to
like
me
very
much
for
this
as
we
get
down
into
the
home
stretch
of
this
thing,
I
think
we
may
have
to
add
one
or
two
more
meetings
before
december.
E
I
think
the
the
conversation
this
evening.
The
dialogue
suggested
that
there
are
some
issues
of
complexity
here
that
might
require
just
a
little
bit
more
attention
from
you.
I
already
appreciate
the
fact
that
you've
agreed
to
do
this.
These
homework
assignments,
but
we
we
we
may
need
to
consider
adding
one
or
two
more
meetings.
