Description
No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
B
B
It
is
6
p.m
and
we
do
have
a
quorum
so
we'll
be
starting
the
meeting
before
we
start
this
meeting
we
are
still
meeting
virtually
based
on
the
covet
19
and
so
trying
to
find
the
correct
language
here.
For
that.
B
C
D
E
A
Alex
he
snuck
in
there,
okay
alex
you
as
well.
A
B
B
No
problem:
do
we
have
anyone
here
for
public
comment.
B
It
doesn't
look
like
it,
so
we're
gonna
go
for
items
for
consideration.
We
actually
have
one
item
tonight.
It
is
ordinance
77-0-20
amending
title
10,
chapter
11,
section
10,
which
is
limited
parking
and
title
10
chapter
11,
section
12
parking
zones
of
the
evanston
city
code
pertaining
to
parking
on
greenwood
street,
the
staff
recommended.
We
make
these
amendments.
B
G
B
I
I
For
you
know
a
day
two
days,
because
there
was
no
restrictions,
then
we
ended
up
changing
it
to
four
hour
parking
with
a
rate
of
two
dollars
an
hour,
and
when
we
did
that,
we
ended
up
seeing
that
people
were
not
utilizing
parking
on
the
block
at
all,
and
then
we
were
also
in
doing
that.
We
were
also
prohibiting
people
that
live
in
proximity
residents
that
have
a
b
and
c
residential
permit
also
were
ineligible
to
park
on
the
block
unless
they
were
paying,
so
they
also
were
not
able
to
park
on
the
block.
I
So
at
this
point,
since
the
block
we're
not
seeing
the
revenue
because
people
are
not
paying
and
then
the
block
is
not
being
parked
up,
it
makes
better
sense
to
offer
the
free
parking
and
allow
the
expansion
of
the
b
and
c
residential
districts.
That
start
approximately
across
the
street
from
this
location,
so
that
we
can
add
more
parking
stock
for
those
residents
that
have
those
those
districts.
H
D
And
also,
I
would
add
that
I
I
mike
and
I
were
both
receiving
complaints
from
residents
in
the
area,
because
it's
it's
densely
populated,
very
pretty,
dense
residential
area
and
so
in
the
in
the
sea
districts
there,
the
bnc
district.
So
people
had
been
using
that
as
a
place
to
park
and
they
were
interested
in
getting
it
designated
so
that
they
could.
I
Correct
and
most
of
the
most
of
the
blocks
that
fall
in
the
b
and
c
district
are
bound
like
between
grove
and
dempster
and
hinman,
east
chicago
avenue,
east.
So
there's
a
lot
of
dense
apartment
buildings
and
condominiums.
G
G
A
G
D
D
E
A
E
A
You
all
alderman
win
come
here
for
me,
the
minutes
you
passed
up
the
match.
B
Oh,
I'm
sorry,
no
worries,
sorry
again
trying
to
look
at
the
screen
and
look
at
the
agenda
here.
I'm
going
to
make
a
motion
that
we
approve
the
minutes
from
the
parking
and
transportation
committee
for
the
date.
A
D
D
A
E
B
All
right
next,
we
have
two
items
for
discussion
tonight.
The
first
one
is
a
bike
plan
update.
The
committee
requested
staff
provide
an
update
on
work
done
since
the
2000
excuse
yeah
2014
bike
plant
update,
there's
a
memo
for
discussion.
C
J
Okay,
well
good
evening,
you
were
asked
to
provide
like
an
update,
so
so
we've
divided
this
into
projects
that
have
been
completed,
projects
that
are
under
design
and
construction
right
now
in
future
projects.
So
the
list
of
projects
you
can
see
that
have
been
completed
include
church
davis.
We
included
some
of
the
bridges,
the
bridges
that
we
were
going
before
the
bridge
street
bridge
was
done.
We
had
done
emerson
bridge
also
we
had.
J
I
got
to
it
wide
on
that
to
put
bike
lanes
out
there,
because
the
bridges
you
know,
get
constructed
every
50
60
years.
So
that's
the
time
to
you
know
perfect
time
to
do
it
so
moving
on
to
the
the
ones
that
right
now
under
design
and
construction,
howard
street
used
to
have
bike
lanes
from
the
west,
the
east
city
limits
to
ridge
avenue
that
was
done
years
ago
in
conjunction
with
cdoc.
J
J
The
bike
lanes
are
being
extended
up
to
asbury
before
he
came
to
rich
now,
he's
been
extended
up
to
asbury
and
west
of
asbury
is
going
to
be
shared
by
claims
with
sheriffs
that
yeah
that
that
should
be
done
sometime
next
year
harbour
park.
There
are
some
small
projects
over
there,
so
stephanie
is
doing
some
bike
path.
Improvements
around
there
this
year,
the
central
street
bridge,
I
think,
is
scheduled
for
construction
next
year
and
as
him
as
I
mentioned
before,
we're
working.
J
J
J
We
were
not
able
to
accommodate
bike
lanes,
but
we
are
going
to
make
it
like
a
shared
used
travel
lane.
The
travel
lanes
will
be
about
10
feet
wide
and
we'll
have
bike
symbols
in
the
streets.
Sharers
part
of
the
project
will
also
have
a
raised
crosswalk
right
at
where
the
parking
lot
is
between
custer
and
sherman,
and
this
will
be
one
of
the
first
race
crosswalks
we've
done
in
the
city,
so
we'll
see
how
that's
to
work
the
the
business
business,
the
retail
stores.
J
You
know
the
business
had
asked
for
more
space
on
on
main
street,
so
to
provide
that
space
we
we
are
doing
some
bump
outs
and
all
that
so
at
least
you
know
there
there's
room
to
do
it
as
part
of
that.
The
parking
lot
has
two
drivers
right
now
and
we're
going
to
get
rid
of
one
of
the
driveways
and
then
just
have
one
driveway
for
inbound
and
outbound.
So
that
gives
us
some
extra
space
out
there.
J
Moving
on
to
our
future
projects
that
we're
working
on
right
now,
george
street,
from
dodge
to
the
west
city
limits.
As
you're
aware,
we
do
have
bike
lanes
from
church
street.
All
the
way
to
downtown
and
george
street
is
also
part
of
the
regional
bike
trail
corridor.
J
What
he
called
evanston
to
elgin
bike
trail
years
ago,
when
I
was
working
with
northwest
conference,
we
came
up
with
that
to
call
the
bike
path
of
evanston
to
elgin.
So
so
we
just
need
to
complete
our
portion.
Skokie
is
working
on
their
portion.
Also.
J
We
have
hired
a
consultant
to
look
into
this,
so
they're
they'll
be
working
this
year
and
next
year
trying
to
come
up
with
a
plan.
It's
not
only
the
bike
path
is
also
pedestrians,
especially
the
children
that
are
there.
The
high
school
students
there's
a
lot
of
crossings,
so
we
just
may
need
to
make
sure
that
we
do
all
the
safety
improvements
in
conjunction
with
the
potential
bike
path
or
bike
lane.
J
As
part
of
that,
we'll
be
also
looking
at
the
channel
trail
connection
between
church
and
dempster.
There's
a
gap
right
now
between
in
the
channel
trail.
One
option
we're
looking
at
again:
the
consultant
will
look
at
is
whether
can
we
do
a
trail
behind
the
school
district
building
and
king
arts
and
bring
it
whether
there's
room
to
do
that
or,
if
that's
not
feasible,
do
we
do
what
he
called
a
sort
of
a
bike,
volleyball
tip
with
just
markings
and
the
signage
and
all
that
on
the
street
itself?
J
You
know
one
of
those
streets,
mcdaniel
fowler
pitner,
which
we
haven't
decided
that'll,
be
part
of
the
public
process
once
we
do
that
well,
well,
I'm
on
that.
Also
we
can
talk
about
big
park.
Big
park.
Also,
there's
a
missing
link
from
big
park
to
to
the
channel
trail
right
now.
The
big
park
trail
engine
at
I
think,
alliance
and
mcdaniel.
J
So
we're
we'll
be
working
on
that
also
to
connect
to
church
street,
so
it
all
works
together
as
we're
looking
at
church
and
other
channel
trails,
the
big
project
is
a
other
big
project
is
chicago
avenue.
J
From
howard
street
to
davis
we
have
competed
from
davis
north
to
isabella,
so
there's
a
there's,
a
lot
of
demand
to
do
something.
The
north-south
connection
in
this
area.
J
The
request
for
qualification
has
been
out.
We
have
received
submittals
from
consultants
regarding
their
qualifications,
so
staff
will
be
reviewing
those
qualifications
and
most
likely
coming
to
be
coming
to
council,
either
in
the
august
or
september
meeting
with
the
recommendation
and
who
to
hire
the
from
howard
to
south
boulevard
out
into
south
on
the
cemetery.
We
already
have
bike
lanes,
but
the
bike
lane
on
the
embankment
is
difficult.
I
think,
for
bikers.
J
We
do
have
two
southbound
lanes
from
going
from
south
to
howard,
so
our
thought
is.
Maybe
we
can
remove
one
of
the
southbound
lanes
and
make
a
nicer
bike
path,
whether
it's
either
side
of
the
street
or
whether
it's
on
one
two-way
bike
path
on
one
side
of
the
street.
The
difficulty
is
going
to
be
at
south
boulevard
intersection.
J
It's
a
very
tight
intersection,
we'll
try
to
see
if
we
can
bring
the
bike
path
up
to
that
intersection,
and
then
north
of
there
is
going
to
be
the
more
difficult
part
to
tackle,
because
we
have
a
lot
of
parking
but
we'll
work
through
that
through
the
public
process,
and
one
of
the
thought
is
if
we
can't,
if
chicago,
is
not
a
suitable
for
bike
lanes
or
whatnot,
maybe
inman
just
as
a
signed
and
marked
corridor
for
the
north
south
route.
J
Again,
that's
just
that
will
be
starting
sometime
later
this
year,
oakton
street,
from
ashbury
to
west
city
limits
where
we
started
that
study
the
consultants
started,
start
their
study.
But
unfortunately,
due
to
the
covid
situation,
we
have
not
been
able
to
do
any
traffic
accounts,
get
data,
student
crossing
data
gap,
studies,
speed
studies
and
all
that
so
we're
where
we
have
held
that
for
now.
J
J
We
did
do
a
bike,
what
he
called
one
of
our
first
bike
parking
station
at
the
cta
metro
station
on
just
south
of
main
street
on
chicago.
J
We
also
the
bike:
rack
request:
is
ongoing?
Residents
can
put
in
a
3-1-1
request
for
a
bike
rack
or
businesses
can.
With
that
request,
we
look
at
it
and
if
it's
feasible,
we
install
it
by
crack.
So
we've
done
about
over
200
bike
racks.
Since
you
know
2014.
J
J
Otherwise,
if
they
don't
do
it
inside,
so
the
tenants
will
tend
to
park
outside
in
the
parkway
and
the
trees
and
the
signposts
and
all
that.
So
it's
a
good
thing
to
have
them
have
a
you
know:
bike
parking
space
within
the
building
so
that
it's
not
only
secure,
but
at
least
it's
not
in
the
parkway
and
the
streets
also
jessica,
I'll,
just
turn
it
over
to
the
tv.
C
C
This
expanded
divi
into
all
wards
in
evanston,
and
then
this
year
I
negotiated
a
contract
with
lyft
to
eliminate
the
cost
to
the
city
for
divi,
so
lyft
no
longer
cost
the
city
anything.
The
software
and
all
of
the
stations
have
been
upgraded.
They've
upgraded
the
apps
online
they've
connected
divi
into
the
lyft
app
I'm
expecting
that
divi
will
be
in
the
ventra
app
so
that
people
who
are
using
transit
can
also
select
divi
as
an
option.
C
I
think
that
should
be
this
fall.
Hopefully,
then,
looking
at
90
low-speed
dockless
electric
bikes
to
be
installed
late
this
summer,
working
on
the
details
with
that
still
with
lyft.
Hopefully,
we'll
have
a
launch
date
that
I
can
share
with
all
of
you
soon,
coordinating
with
northwestern,
as
well
as
about
the
location
of
those
bikes
on
their.
B
Okay,
do
we
have
any
questions
or
comments
from
the
committee.
E
So
I
did
not
participate,
but
there
was
a
bike
ride
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
to
try
out
a
different
route
from
chicago
connecting
to
downtown
evanston
barbara.
Did
you
go
on
that
bike?
Ride.
E
You
got
a
recap
because
that
sounded
like
a
pretty
pretty
interesting
route
there
custer
and
whatever
do
you
want
to
tell
us
about
that.
B
H
B
For
okay
jessica,
do
you
want
to
give
any
input
or
alex?
Did
you
have
a
comment.
F
F
So
yeah
I
mean
I,
I
find
ways
to
get
through
there,
but
it's
of
course
a
very
challenge
way,
and
it's
not
very
well.
You
know
for
those
who
don't
know
how
to
get
through
and
under
it's
a
difficult
way
to
get
there
and
that
just
you
know
what
I
would
say
about
the
comment
and
what
rajiv
has
said
and
and
jessica.
F
They
just
just
to
really
make
a
concerted
effort
to
to
try
to
develop
a
network.
I
mean
an
infrastructure,
I
mean
it
seems
like
we
have
all
these
pieces
here
and
there,
but
there's
really
not
a
well
thought
out
solution,
and
even
the
solutions
that
we
have
today
are
are
you
know,
leaving
much
to
be
desired
to
the
safety
of
the
of
people
who
choose
to
ride
a
bike
and
pedestrians
as
well?
F
So
I
would,
I
would
try
to
make
a
better,
a
better
plan
at
trying
to
get
these
to
tie
together
and
have
a
network
and
infrastructure
that
supports
it.
I
mean
it's,
I
think
is:
is
is
very
arduous
to
go
around
this
way
when
we
have
all
these
pieces
here
and
there
and
nothing
very
cohesive
and
also
is
is
it
was
mentioned
about.
F
You
know,
people
who
would
come
in
and
help
us
to
do
to
develop
a
network
and
infrastructure
just
to
just
to
be,
I
don't
know
who
consultants
might
be,
but
you
know
just
just
to
see
what
other
communities
are
doing
in
other
places,
even
close
by
or
farther
away.
I
I've
been
hearing
a
lot
about.
F
You
know
ways
of
promoting
infrastructure
and
stimulate
people
to
get
you
know
to
get
on
their
bikes
and
and
and
and
their
legs,
leaving
the
cars
behind
and
and
not
just,
for
example,
what
is
happening
on
main
street?
I
think
that
it's
it's
sad
that,
with
all
the
parking
that
is
available
in
the
parking
lots
that
we
still
are
accommodating
the
parking
versus
having
more
access
for
bicycles
to
get
to
main
street.
H
People
who
are
less
comfortable
on
bikes
to
begin
with,
I'm
not
sure,
would
find
the
greenway
route
any
more
comfortable,
although,
although
for
people
less
comfortable,
some
hindman
or
judson
might
be
amenable,
but
then
that
would
not
be
what
commuters,
who
are
interested
in
going
from
one
place
to
another
quickly
might
want.
So
it's
a
tough
tough
decisions,
but
we
need
more
views
of
the
longer
corridors
rather
than
these
little
trunks.
H
We
missed
the
bet
on
main
street
main
street
in
skokie,
is
beautiful
bikes
and
then
they
hit
evanston
and
as
oh,
my
goodness,
what
am
I
getting
into
our
east?
East-West
corridors
they're,
not
great
for
us
for
cars
either
and
they're
even
worse,
for
bikes.
B
Thank
you.
I
I
have
a
question
I
mean
I
wasn't
here
when
they
made
the
2014
bike
plan
and
I
do
understand
when
we
also
do
this
public
process,
then
you
do
get
a
lot
of
people
who
say:
oh
no
can't
move
the
parking.
They
don't
like
the
bike
lanes
on.
B
Ridge,
I
understand
kind
of
the
staff
because
you
know
you're
trying
to
work
with
all
the
different
needs.
The
best
you
can.
But
when
you
talk
about
you
know
oakton.
I
know
it's
not
there
yet,
but
if
we
think
about
asbury-
and
so
we
have
some
bike
lanes
from
howard
to
I
guess
maine
and
then
it
just
kind
of
then
you
just
kind
of
all
right.
No.
J
Alderman,
the
thought
is:
try
to
connect
what
we
have.
There
are
a
lot
of
gaps.
Like
everybody
said:
oh,
we
have
quite
a
few
gaps
around
the
city
and,
for
example,
church
street.
You
know
from
downtown
we
come
to
dodge
avenue,
but
then
we
extend
it
to
the
high
school.
So
we're
now
trying
to
complete
that
all
the
way
to
skokie
and
skokie
has
plans
for
bike
lanes
on
church
street
also
similar
to
howard
street.
Also
we're
trying
to
bring
that
at
least
all
the
way
to
you
know,
asbury
and
then
connect.
J
You
know
at
least
have
a
share
or
certain
marking
up
to
dodge
avenue
and
try
to
connect
to
that
path.
The
north-south
path
we
were
able
to
go
from
one
south
end
of
town
to
the
north
end.
Although
it
does
it's
not
a
straight
path,
a
dodge
avenue.
It
goes
up
from
howard
till
up
to
church
street
and
then
church
going
east
goes
up
to
chicago
avenue
and
then
from
chicago
we
go
to
wilmette.
J
So
we
are
looking
at
the
network
also,
but
also
it
depends
on
where
our
projects
are
and
and
then
we
try
to
fit
something
in
the
project,
just
trying
to
look
at
it,
how
we
can
accommodate
the
needs
of
all
users
and
sometimes
we're
successful
in
putting
bike
bike
lanes
or
bike
path,
and
sometimes
we're
not,
but
we
do
look
at
both.
You
know
it's
just
like.
I
said
like
on
the
the
bridges
we
do.
J
B
J
Some
some
projects
would
be
like
bike
lane,
like
the
church
street
was
bike
lane
when
we
did
the
chicago
the
sheridan
chicago
corridor
was
a
bike
lane
project
davis
street
was
a
bike
lane
streetscape
project
so
and
dodge
avenue
was
a
bike
lane
project.
So
there
are
certain
streets
that
we
have
a
bike
lane
project,
even
the
the
upcoming
cherry
street
project
from
dodge
to
the
west.
That's
pretty
much
a
bike
lane
plus
pedestrian
project
chicago
avenue.
J
F
It
is,
it
seems
to
me
that
you
know
you're
trying
to
make
an
effort
to
to
have
these
works
and
these
improvements,
but
I
I
just
think
that
I
mean
just
you're
an
engineer.
Think
about
it.
I
mean,
if
you
plan,
if
it
was
the
other
way
around
and
and
we
were
getting
around
on
bikes
and
then
and
then
you
had
to
accommodate
the
vehicles,
the
cars,
I
I
don't
think
you
could,
you
would
approach
it
this
way.
F
F
I
think
you
would
be
approaching
this
a
little
bit
more
differently
and-
and
even
we
have
spoken
about
in
in
you
know,
since
since
the
plan
is
arrived
and
you
know
and
or
was,
was
visited
in
2014.,
I
mean
just
to
make
an
effort
also
to
educate.
I
I
don't
think
we've
done
anything
of
that
yeah
at
the
high
school,
where
we
have
spoken
about.
F
You
know,
educating
drivers
and
future
drivers
and
people
on
bikes.
I
mean
everybody.
I
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done,
and
it's
really
not
a
very
serious
attempt
to
do
it.
I
mean
the
way
we're
doing.
It
is
just
we're
still
seeing
the
bicycle
this
this
you
know
secondary
mode
of
transportation
where
really
a
lot
of
people,
especially
in
the
face
of
the
pandemic.
B
B
So
I
guess,
as
a
committee,
this
was
really
just
for
discussion,
but
are
there
some
things
we
wanted
to
send
back
to
the
engineering
staff
or
to
jessica?
I
mean
I
realized
that
you
know
we
have
people
in
town
who
are
very
much
wet
to
their
cars,
and
so
the
idea
of
moving
parking
spaces
to
make
a
bike
is
not.
B
You
know
don't
know
that
we're
going
to
have
more
money,
but
there's
a
way
that
I
think
we
can
probably
at
least
advocate
that
it's
a
priority
and
we
do
have
to
always
do
the
public
process,
but
there's
also
then
a
way
of
which,
if
we
have
a
priority,
we
can
communicate
that
to
the
public.
So
you
know
as
we're
hearing
from
them.
We
can
also
communicate
what
our
priorities
are
and
not
just
kind
of
kind
of
gave
to
the
loudest
voice.
B
So
to
speak,
I
mean
I'm
very
interested,
I
don't
I'm
a
very
casual
writer,
but
I
have
gone
on
these
streets
where
you're
riding
and
then
you're
then
you're,
nothing
and
then
you're
kind
of
forced
to
ride
on
the
sidewalk,
which
we
know
is
not
safe
either,
and
we
also,
as
jessica
said
now,
have
divvy
bike
stations
in
every
ward
and
so
we're
kind
of
sending
a
little
bit
of
a
conflicting
message
and
our
engineering
staff
is
trying
to,
as
you
said,
kind
of
fill
in
these
gaps,
but
they're
not
necessarily
the
the
best
way
to
go
about
it.
B
So
I'm
not
sure
if
we
want
to
give
direction
have
more
conversation.
The
education
piece
is
one
thing,
but
now
that
school
is
you
know
not
meeting
and
yeah.
You
know
who
knows
what's
happening
with
school.
F
F
E
Rasheed,
could
you
just
go
over
again,
so
we're
going
to
be
hiring
a
consultant
to
help
with
some
of
what
you
talked
about
is?
Is
that
going
to
be
part
of?
E
Could
you
remind
me
of
that
part
where
we're
going
to
have
the
consultant
help,
and
and
are
we
going
to
involve
you
know
some
community
meetings
or
something
to
get
community
input.
J
Yes,
solomon:
yes,
we
we
for
the
church
state
project.
We
already
have
a
consultant
on
board
council
approved
that
a
couple
of
meetings
ago,
so
they're,
starting
and
as
part
of
our
any
project
any
of
our
projects.
There
will
be
public,
you
know,
involvement,
public
input
and,
depending
on
what
comes
out
of
that
public
process,
you
know
we
do
the
design
and
go
into
construction
for
how,
for
the
chicago
avenue,
from
howard
to
davis,
we're
in
the
process
of
hiring
a
consultant
to
do
that.
Also.
J
And
some
other
minor
mighty
oakland
street.
We
have
a
consultant
on
board
but
like
big
park
or
loveless
park
that
might
be
done
in
the
house.
J
Correct
the
what
happens
is
we
we
look
at
projects?
Also,
we
try
to
get
federal
funding
or
some
other
funding
to
successfully.
You
know,
try
to
implement
it
and,
as
part
of
that
process,
we
we
have
to
finish
phase
one
for
the
state
requirements,
so
the
church
street
project
and
the
howard
street,
I'm
not
the
chicago
avenue
project-
will
go
through
the
phase
one
process.
J
Let's
start
this
year,
most
likely
go
through
next
year
before
phase
one
is
completed,
and
after
that,
once
phase
one
is
completed
and
I
dot
approves
it.
Then
only
we
move
into
phase
two
engineering
and,
depending
on
the
type
of
funding,
normally
we
do
get
funding
for
construction,
but
also
also,
we
also
try
to
see
if
we
can
get
funding
for
phase
two
engineering
also,
it
depends
on
the
program.
J
It
depends
on
the
how
complicated
it
is,
but
at
the
minimum
we
put
phase
one
as
one
year
and
it
could
be.
You
know
year
and
a
half
again.
It
all
depends
how
the
length
of
the
corridor,
what
all
the
issues
are
involvement
of
idot.
How
soon
I
dot
you
know,
reviews
provides
feedback.
H
H
J
D
I
was
showing
my
fingers
as
four
years
so
my
my
question
is
about
chicago
avenue,
north
of
howard.
No
excuse
me,
north
of
south
boulevard.
Rajiv.
Have
we
looked
at
the
alternative
of
using
hindman
avenue
up
to
davis.
J
D
Okay,
because
I
you
know,
I
know
that
we'll
probably
run
into
issues
with
chicago
avenue
being
narrow
and
the
business
community
they're
wanting
to
maintain
their
parking.
Despite
the
fact
that
we
are
trying
to
move
people,
you
know
out
of
cars
and
into
bikes,
and
I
know
that
we
also
have
a
lot
of
curb
cuts
on
chicago
avenue
that
are
actively
used.
So
you
know
I
I
know
as
long
as
that's
something
that
we'll
look
at
you
know.
Hindman
is
wide.
D
It
is
parked
on
both
sides,
but
I
think
it
is
the
informal
alternative
to
chicago
avenue.
I
live
on
hindman
and
we
see
during
old
rush
hours
that
we
used
to
have.
There
were
as
many
bikers.
Sometimes
you
know
fifty
percent
of
car.
It
would
be
twice
as
many
bikers,
but
it
would
be
a
very
steady
stream
of
bicyclists.
B
And
I
was
going
to
say
not
that
I
have
a
bike
there,
but
when
I
do
bike
on
chicago
avenue,
you
know
you
kind
of
come
off
of
the
very
fancy
bike
lanes
into
nothing
and
then
now,
if
we're
going
to
move
over
to
hinman,
I
would
you
know,
that's
something
else,
obviously
to
consider
because
then
you're
dropping
people
at
I
guess
davis
and
if
they
want
to
go
further
south
on
a
real
bike
lane.
They
need
to
then
get
from
davis
down
to
hinman.
C
B
D
No,
I
I
agree
aldman
fleming
and
if
there
were
some
way
that
we
could
make
it
a
straight
shot
that
you
know
I
I
think
that
that
would
be
great,
I'm
curious
to
see
what
they
could
come
up
with.
You
know,
because
it
would.
That
would
certainly
be
terrific
if
they
can
figure
out
a
straight
shot.
Chicago
avenue
carries
20
000
cars
a
day,
so
it's
also
a
major
corridor
and
have
to
figure
out
how
you
protect
bicyclists
on
on
that
kind
of
road.
F
J
Well,
it's
it's
all
yeah.
It
starts
with
planning.
J
Planning
design,
engineering
and
then
construction
all
three.
F
And
when
is
the
r,
there
are
a
few
deadline
when,
when
when
do
we
need
to
have
that
buy
when
you
send
this
well,
the
one
you
talked
about
for
chicago
avenue,
I
think.
F
J
F
F
F
An
infrastructure
that
makes
sense
for
us
to
do
I
mean
I
think
is-
is
is
not
a
wise,
economical
investment
to
do
it.
This
way-
and
I
think
I
mean
I-
I
was
just
at
pandit
plaza
yesterday,
and
you
know
that
intersection
and
the
way
it's
working.
I
think
it
leaves
a
lot
to
be
desire,
as
I
was
going
south
on.
You
know
on
this
across
the
intersection.
J
Just
a
brief
brief
background
on
the
bike
lanes.
When
I
first
started
here
in
1998,
we
didn't
have
any
bike
lanes,
so
we
were
getting
a
request
and
started
working
with
it.
I
and
stephanie,
and
we
had
a
transportation
planner,
the
cde
department.
We
worked
on
it,
we
got
some
funding
and
we
did
in
the
current
bike
lanes
and
bike
routes.
J
You
see
it
came
out
that
public
process,
that's
where
people
wanted,
the
residents
wanted,
the
you
know
bike
routes
and
then,
once
once
that
was
approved,
we
went
and
got
funding.
But
again
the
difficulty
was
like
it's
been
pointed
out.
It
doesn't
continue
and
one
of
the
primary
reasons
at
that
time
we
were
talking
about
you
know
almost
20
years
ago,
yeah
was
a
part
yeah.
F
Yeah,
no,
no,
I
don't
fault
you
or
or
nor
anybody
else
in
in
the
department.
I
just
I
just
think
that
you
know
you.
You
are
you're
trying
to
do
a
difficult
job
and-
and
it's
not
it's
not
made
easier
for
you,
but
yeah.
I
think
we
need
a
leadership
that
gets
us
there
and
that
will
help
you
and
your
colleagues.
B
So
we've
had
a
thorough
discussion
on
this.
There's
not
really
any
action
for
us
to
take
at
this
time
right.
Maybe
it
would
be
good
or
jessica,
or
maybe
even
just
markle's.
B
Yes
at
these,
as
these
rfps
go
out
and
they
are
getting,
you
know
after
the
bid
process
is
finished,
maybe
just
as
a
reminder
to
come
back
to
the
committee
to
let
us
know,
there's
been
chosen
for
whatever
the
fighting
project
you
know
whatever
the
project
is,
it
involves
bike
lanes
just
so
we
can
keep
up
with
it,
because
we
talk
about
it
a
little
bit
here,
but
more
so
at
council,
and
so
this
committee
might
not,
you
know,
be
getting
updated
on
when
things
are
going
to
be
implemented.
B
All
right,
our
next
item
is
also
for
discussion,
and
I
think
this
one
just
I'm
reading
it.
I
think
it
might
be
a
little
bit
incorrect.
So
the
subject
is
the
part
public
outreach
for
ride
sharing
pickup,
but
under
the
recommended
action
I
I
think
it
has
old
text
in
there.
So
this
discussion
is
about
ride,
sharing
and
we're
gonna
jessica
will
give
us
information
regarding
making
some
designated
pickup
and
drop-off
places
for
the
ride,
sharing
companies
to
use
around
the
city
so
jessica.
Do
you
want
to
fill
us
in
here.
C
Yeah,
so
something
that
I've
been
hearing
a
lot
about
and
getting
a
lot
of
requests
on
our
right
tearing
vehicle,
so
lyft
uber
and
we
have
via
now
making
sudden
stops
and
because
they're
not
marked
like
a
taxi
cab.
C
They're
you,
you
don't
realize
that
they're
going
to
suddenly
stop
because
there's
no
indication
that
it's
a
it's
a
vehicle,
that's
making
sun
stops
and
so
a
lot
of
places.
That's
not
a
problem
on
the
side
streets.
Things
like
that,
but
when
you're
looking
at
something
like
ridge
when
you're
looking
at
sheridan
when
you're
looking
at
high
traffic
areas
in
downtown
those
sudden
stops,
can
really
slow
up
the
traffic
and
then
be
very
dangerous
for
the
people
who
are
trying
to
use
the
ride
share
at
green
bay
ridge
emerson.
C
There
is
a
pedestrian
island
on
ridge
as
you're
heading
north,
and
I
saw
two
older
women
who
were
standing
in
the
middle
of
that
island
with
traffic
going
by
waiting
for
for
ride
share,
and
that
is
not
a
place
where
anyone
should
be
getting
on
for
rideshare
or
waiting
for
a
vehicle.
And
so
I've
already
reached
out
to
the
ride-sharing
companies
that
are
operating
in
evanston.
C
They
realize
that
safety
is
a
concern
and
they
they
don't
want
to
have
their
drivers,
be
involved
in
accidents
or
because
that's
a
liability
for
them
as
well
so
they're
on
board,
with
working
with
the
city
and
establishing
locations.
C
And
so
the
first
thing
that
is
that
we
need
to
do
is
to
do
some
public
outreach
to
hear
from
the
community
about
what
the
needs
are
and
where
these
locations
really
need
to
go.
So
I've
worked
out
kind
of
a
public
outreach
outline
to
get
some
feedback
so
that
we
can
come
up
with
a
plan.
If
you
want
to
scroll
down
marcos.
The
outline's
on
the
next
page.
C
C
And
so
I
already
have
identified
some
stakeholders
to
solicit
some
input
from
and
so
northwestern
university,
the
hospitals,
large
apartment
complexes
and
multi-family
unit
buildings
and
then
also
our
ssas,
and
to
get
feedback
on
business
needs
as
well.
And
so
I've
already
had
some
preliminary
discussions
with
them
and
we'll
be
developing
a
questionnaire
to
go
out
to
the
community
at
large
so
that
people
can
give
information
on
interested
locations
for
pickup
and
drop-off
zones
where,
where
do
they
need
to
get
picked
up
and
dropped
off
after?
C
That
questionnaire
goes
out
to
the
community
going
to
be
incorporating
that
into
a
plan
working
in
with
internal
staff
to
make
sure
that
public
works
agencies
on
board
with
some
of
these
locations,
making
sure
that
there
aren't
any
other
concerns
with
with
where
we
have
these
pickup
and
drop
off
zones
located
from
that
I'll
consult
with
some
of
our
stakeholders
again
I'll,
consult
with
the
transportation
network
providers,
they'll
all
give
feedback,
and
then
that's
going
to
go
back
out
as
a
plan
for
for
public
review
and
comment.
C
After
that
feedback
comes
in
it'll,
be
incorporated
to
the
final
plan
with
a
final
consultation
with
the
transportation
network
providers.
That'll
end
up
going
to
city
council
for
review
and
approval,
because
it
may
mean
that
some
parking
may
need
to
be
removed,
for
example,
and
then
that
would
need
council
approval.
You
know.
Obviously
we
try
to
limit
removal
of
parking
in
evanston,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
that
there
are
safe
places
for
people
to
get
picked
up
and
dropped
off
as
well.
C
Hopefully,
we
won't
need
to
to
to
limit
any
parking,
but
it
will
go
back
to
council
for
approval
and
then
we'll
do
some
public
outreach
on
the
new
zones
and
how
that
they
how
they
will
work.
They
will
get
automatically
included
in
the
transportation
network
provider
apps,
and
so
those
drivers
will
know
they
can
only
pick
up
people
in
certain
locations
on
sheridan,
for
example,
or
on
bridge.
C
Ideally,
we
won't
have
any
pickup
and
drop-offs
on
ridge
and
we'll
have
that'll
be
a
no
drop-off
zone
and
that
can
get
programmed
so
that
we
won't
have
that
issue
in
the
future,
and
so
that
will
be
communicated
to
the
public
and
then
the
the
zones
will
will
ideally
go
into
effect.
So
this
is
kind
of
the
general
outline
and
just
wanted
to
update
you
on
it
and
hear
your
feedback
on.
If
there's
any
stakeholders,
you've
thought
of
that
you'd,
like
included
and
any
other
information
you'd
like
to
know.
C
Yeah
so
generally
taxi
cabs,
don't
do
that
they
have
a
different
level
of
training
that
they
often
have
to
go
through
in
order
to
be
an
operator.
So
that's
part
of
it.
Another
part
of
it
is
that
we
used
to
have
taxi
cab
stands.
Some
of
them
are
still
in
existence
like
the
one
at
the
main
street
metra
ncta
station
they're
not
really
utilized
anymore.
C
D
Aldermen
win,
yes,
jessica
is
there?
Is
there
any
way
to
enforce
those
like
prohibit
the
the
dropping
off
on
ridge?
I
mean
I,
I
see
that
frequently
and
it
always
appalls
me
and
I
can't
believe
no
one's
been
injured
by
that.
Yet
so
is
there
some
way
that
that
that
can
be
enforced
to
do
do
the
tnps,
the
transportation
network
providers,
do
they
have
any
ability
to
track
the
their
the
cars,
so
they
can
see
if
they've
done
that.
C
They
c
they
do
have
that
data.
They
are
not
willing
to
share
much
of
that
data
with
municipalities
right
now.
Some
of
the
data
has
been
released
for
larger
communities
by
some
transportation
network
providers,
but
it's
very
generic.
Even.
D
Researchers,
what's
the
enforcement
that
we'll
get
from
them,
I
mean
do
our
police
just
have
to
I
mean
I
I
think
any
one
of
these
should
be
given
that
you
know
I
I
mean
given
what
I
the
behavior,
you
just
you
described,
and
also
what
we've
all
seen
on
ridge
at
some
point.
You
know
what
what's
the
penalty
for
this,
because
it
really
is
dangerous.
D
When
you're-
and
I
agree
with
you
following
a
taxi-
you
have
a
little
bit
better
understanding
of
why
a
taxi
might
be
slowing
down,
but
you
don't
really
understand
and
I've
never
seen
a
taxi
ever
drop
anybody
off
on
ridge.
I
so
you
know,
and
also
because
you
can
report
a
taxi
if
that
for
bad
behavior,
because
they've
got
their
phone
number
all
over
it.
So
you
know
what
are
we
they're
just
gonna
tell
us.
D
We
promise
and
we'll
tell
all
our
drivers
that,
because
you
know
drivers
are
we,
they
need
to
be
educated
and
we
need
to
make
sure
they
understand
the
safety
aspects
of
this.
C
Yeah,
so
what
so?
What
they'll
do
is
they'll
actually
program
it
into
their
app
that
a
driver
cannot
start
a
trip
if
they're
on
ridge,
okay,
so
so
they
won't
be
able
to
the
the
app
itself
will
prohibit
them
from
doing
anything
until
they're
in
a
location
that
allows
for
a
pickup.
Now.
D
C
Exactly
and
and
that's
why
it's
so
critical
that
the
city,
you
know,
maintains
good
communications
with
the
transportation
network
providers
so
that
we
can
work
together
on
making
changes
in
their
app
to
improve
safety
for
everyone.
D
Okay,
well,
I
have
one
other
question.
This
is
slightly
tangential.
Do
you
you
know
from
your
conversations
with
them?
I
don't
know
what
how
frequently
you
do
have.
I
know.
Anecdotally.
I've
heard
that
uber
or
lyft
have
had
a
huge
drop
in
ridership
because
of
the
coronavirus
are
you
do
they
have
do
we
have
any
data
to
to
support?
I
mean
I
know
that
just
from
anecdotally,
but
do
we
have
information
from
them
about
what
degree
they've
seen
their
ridership
drop.
C
They
they
haven't
shared
that,
however,
with
more
people
working
remotely
and
what
I'm
hearing
from
the
taxicab
companies
and
and
what's
being,
what
is
being
shared
publicly,
is
that
there
is
a
significant
drop
just
like
there
is
a
significant
drop
in
transit,
ridership
right
yeah.
I
I
think
I
heard
from
a
taxi
company
that
their
their
ridership
from
march
to
april
dropped
by
80
percent,
which
was
quite
significant.
Oh
you
just
froze
up
for
a
second.
C
I
I
heard
from
a
taxi
operator
that
that
their
ridership
dropped
80
from
march
to
april.
G
I
Set
up
load
zones
and
dense
areas
like
downtown
if
we
are
going
to
consider
an
approximate,
you
know,
linear
footage
of
area
that
we
would
program
into
the
into
the
apps
to
keep
people
from
ordering
the
rideshare
and
proximity
to
those
load
zones,
so
so
that
it's
not
circumventing
the
whole
reason
for
the
load
zone.
C
Yeah,
so
I'll
definitely
want
to
work
with
you
on
that
mic
when
we
get
into
that
that
actual
plan
phase,
and
so
all
several
departments
will
will
get
called
in
you'll,
get
called
in
on
that
mike
and
and
public
works
will
get
called
in
on
that.
Just
to
make
sure
that
the
right
of
the
space
in
the
right-of-way
that
is
selected
for
any
zones
that
are
deemed
necessary
makes
sense
for
everyone.
B
E
Well,
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
a
real
problem
area
just
because
I
don't
know
that
I
don't
know
what
the
solution
is.
It's
and
it's
not
gonna,
be
a
problem
this
year,
but
it's
picking
up
after
football
games.
C
E
Also,
basketball
games
to
some
extent
but
for
sure
football
games,
and
it
was
a
disaster
last
year
and
I
don't
nobody's,
come
up
with,
to
my
mind,
a
good
solution
yet
so
I
don't
quite
know
how
we're
going
to
resolve
that
one.
But
it's
going
to
take
some
special
attention.
E
C
I
do
a
lot
of
research
on
what
is
being
done
in
other
communities,
and
I
have
seen
several
communities
that
have
special
pickup
and
drop
off
zones
for
game
day,
so
that
you
can
only
get
an
uber
or
lift
at
one
of
those
locations
and
that's
helpful
for
both
companies
as
well,
because
with
everyone
using
your
phone
at
the
same
time,
to
try
to
get
google
a
lift,
there's
real
issues
with
apps
working
successfully.
E
Yeah,
but
it's
for
the
after
the
football
games,
you've
got
the
crowds
of
people
they're
all
on
the
designated
corner,
but
there
are
there's
so
many
people
there
in
the
street
and
it's
maybe
you
and
I,
when
you
get
close
to
kind
of
working
on
that
piece
of
it.
You
and
I
can
try
to
strategize.
B
You
know
it
can't
be
on
this
kind
of
street
or
you
know
the
street,
whatever
parameters
we're
looking
at,
because
if
we
just
go
out
and
say
what
is
your
opinion,
you
know
we
know
we're
going
to
have
people
who
don't
want
parking
removed,
we're
going
to
have
people
who
don't
want
it
in
front
of
their
store,
we're
you
know
we're
going
to
have
a
gamut
of
opinions,
and
so
I
think
it
might
be
better
if
you
go
with
some
parameters
of
what
we
know,
we're
we're
not
going
to
do
or
we
are
going
to
do
right
so
that
and
and
also
right,
if
we
have
it
that
can
downtown.
B
I
don't
know
how
we
do
this
but
like
we
need
to
make
sure
it's
a
transportation
network
provider
and
not
someone
just
kind
of
pulling
over
and
throwing
another
hazard
because
they're
using
it
as
a
loading
zone.
So
you
know
I
have
some
concerns
just
about
how
that
that's
managed
and
we
need
to
you
know,
obviously
communicate
that
with
with
our
parking
enforcement,
so
they
know
who
their
kid
ticket
and
who
they're
not.
But
more
so
I
I
guess
my
concern
is
I
I
would
rather
us
in-house.
B
You
know,
work
with
the
department.
You
mentioned
kind
of
look
at
our
streets.
You
know
kind
of
trying
to
do
a
little
bit
of
a
guessing
of
what
would
work
and
what
wouldn't
work
before
we
went
out
to
this
kind
of
blanket
public
engagement.
What
are
your
thoughts,
because
that
always
stirs
up
over
a
zillion
people
and,
like
you
know,
autumn
ravel,
where
she
is
we'll,
probably
get
lots
of
people
who
say
we
want
all
the
northwestern
people
to
walk
down
to
the
hospital
for
the
loading
zone.
You.
C
B
And
that's
going
to
kind
of
quash
any
you
know
kind
of
just
any
ability
we
have
to
do
stuff
and-
and
I
don't
know
how
I
went
with
taxis-
because
that
was
before
my
time,
but
we
do
have
these
taxi
stands
that
are
just
pretty
much
empty
now.
So
I
would
assume
we
could
just
make
some
of
those
into
these
pickup
zones
if
we
still
have
them
around,
and
we
have
that
one
like
behind
the
cca,
downtown
evanston,
and
I
think
I've
only
seen
one
taxi
there
and
usually
the
police
are
parked
there.
B
So
it
seems
like
that
would
be
an
easy
one
to
convert
into
this
other
kind
of
loading
zone.
But
I
I
just
I'm
concerned
about
this
process
being
a
little
bit
too
open-ended.
I'm
also,
you
know,
I
don't
know
what
the
consultation
with
the
transportation
network
providers
is
and
then
what
their
feedback
is.
B
But
I
think
we
all
have
you
know
seen
this
as
a
problem,
not
only
on
ridge
but
lots
of
other
streets
where
the
car
just
kind
of
comes
to
a
stop
or
they're
driving
super
duper
slow
because
they're
trying
to
find
the
address
and
the
person-
and
I
think
we
as
a
city
just
need
to
kind
of
make
some
parameters
and
kind
of
give
them
to
them.
B
G
B
Then
it's
going
to
be:
oh,
my
gosh,
the
council
doesn't
listen
to
us,
we
told
them.
We
don't
want
these
parking
spaces
or
you
know
these.
We
don't
want
these
pickup
zones,
so
I
I
just
would
con
be
concerned
about
going
out
with
too
much
engagement
without
kind
of
some
real
structure
as
to
what's
possible
and
what
we're.
C
Thinking,
I
definitely
think
it
needs
to
be
structured,
and
so
with
the
survey
that
would
go
out
open-ended
questions
are
never
a
good
idea,
because
then
you
get
you
need
to
have
a
place
where
people
can
tell
you
what
they
want
to
tell
you,
but
as
far
as
having
useful
data,
a
survey
that
just
says
tell
us
where
you
want
to
have
street
parking
for
transportation
or
providers
you're
not
going
to
get
any
useful
data
that
you
can
then
synthesize
into
a
plan.
C
But
so
what
I
could
do
is
after
the
questionnaire
has
developed.
I
could
bring
it
back
to
the
committee
to
look
at
as
kind
of
a
next
step
before
going
out
to
the
public
to
get
feedback.
C
I
don't
know
if
that
would
be
helpful
to
make
sure
that
we
are
setting
those
parameters
that
make
sense
for
evanston
and
making
sure
that
we're
getting
useful
feedback
and
then,
as
far
as
and
then
I
would
also
say,
usually
with
with
surveys
like
this.
It's
the
people
who
actually
care
about
it.
So
I
don't
think
we'll
have,
and
usually
with
the
city
surveys.
You
know
we
get
300
to
900
people
completing,
and
I
would
expect
something
similar
with
this
survey
as
well.
C
We
don't
have
to
do
a
survey,
it's
just
a
process
that
I
find
personally
useful
as
far
as
identifying
interest
from
the
community
and
then
with
going
back
to
the
public
with
the
plan.
So
then
that
that
plan
will
identify
these
spots,
where
we're
thinking
about
putting
in
the
the
areas
for
transportation,
network
providers
who
do
pick
up
and
drop
offs,
and
the
reason
why
I
like
to
open
it
up
to
the
public
is:
if
there
is
any
changes
in
the
right-of-way.
C
We
need
to
make
sure
that
the
community
that's
affected
by
it
has
a
chance
to
respond
and
make
sure
that
their
voice
is
heard,
and
maybe
we
do
need
to
make
a
change,
and
so,
with
the
dodge
bus
stop
pilot
program.
We
had
a
community
meeting
with
that
and
we
did
receive
some
feedback
and
we
went
back
and-
and
we
shifted
some
of
the
bus
stops
as
a
result,
and
so
that
that's
another
reason
why
we
want
to
go
out
to
the
public
and
get
that
kind
of
feedback.
B
H
B
And
I
don't
necessarily
need
to
look
at
it
first,
but
that's
just
my
suggestion
about
you
know
we
we
know
we're
not
going
to
put
them
in
some
places
and
we
know
some
other
places.
We
probably
need
to
put
them,
and
we
know
ridge
avenue
will
say
no,
no,
don't
pick
up
here
at
all
so
some
parameters,
so
people
don't
just
feel
like
they
can
say
not
in
front
of
my
business
and
then
we're
moving
on.
C
F
I
mean
summit
some
of
this
behavior,
I
think,
could
be
cursed
already
with
you
know.
What's
in
place
already
I
mean
if
somebody
is
barking
in
the
middle
of
stopping
their
car
in
the
middle
of
a
road.
I
mean
that
that
is
not
legal.
I
think
that
it's
hard,
of
course,
for
an
officer
or
or
a
parking.
You
know
agent
to
to
to
see
that
at
that
moment,
but
there's
plenty
of
it.
I
mean
we
see
it
all
the
time
and
it's
just
totally
irresponsible.
F
I
mean
before
we
do
surveys
or
anything
I
mean
that
that
we
ought
to
crack
down.
On
that
I
mean
I
I've
seen
I've
seen
amazon
drugs
at
asbury
after
a
curve.
You
know
an
s
curve
there
I
mean
just
parked
there
while
they
deliver
their
package,
I
mean
that
is
I
mean
us.
Citizens
could
could
call
that
license
plate,
and
I
mean
there
ought
to
be
a
way
and
recourse
for
for
these.
F
You
know
drivers
who
are
not,
you
know
paying
any
attention
and
jeopardizing
the
safety
of
others
to
be.
You
know
to
penalize
and
that's
really
how
I
think
we're
going
to
trim
it.
I
mean
just
to
you
know
if
they
think
that
they
will
be
they'll,
have
no
repercussions,
they
could
continue
doing
it,
but
if
they,
if
they
do
get
issue
a
ticket,
I
think
they'll
think
again
before
or
or
revoke
their
you
know
their
license.
I
think
they
will
probably
take
that
more
into
consideration.
C
Yeah
and
I
can
reach
out
to
the
police
department
and
see
what
kind
of
enforcement
that
they're
already
doing,
and
I
think
that
they
would
be
great
to
have
as
part
of
this
conversation.
C
B
Okay
looks
like
we
have
one
more
thing,
so
do
people
want
jessica
to
come
back
with
the
survey
or
we
feel
like
we
gave
enough
direction.
B
B
Okay,
so
the
last
part
here
is
just
an
update
of
the
transportation
and
mobility
work.
That's
going
on
within
the
city
jessica.
You
want
to
add
anything
to
the
memo
here.
C
Now
I
just
wanted
to
share
some
great
news
last
time
I
let
you
know
that
I
had
applied
for
a
couple
of
grants
and
I
was
notified
recently
that
the
city
was
selected
for
the
rta
access
to
transit
program.
C
When
so
many
organizations
are
really
in
support
of
a
project,
it's
it's
a
good
opportunity
to
get
funded.
It
will
mean
that
in
evanston
we
have
flag
stops
for
many
stops
and
then
even
stops
that
have
signed.
We
do
not
have
any
bus
stop
pad
and
that
is
not
accessible.
C
C
It
makes
it
easier
for
just
about
everyone
to
get
on
the
bus
and,
and
so
it's
as
simple
as
a
concrete
pad.
In
many
cases,
the
majority
of
stops
in
evanston
right
now
do
not
have
a
concrete
pad,
so
the
majority
of
stops
in
evanston
are
not
accessible
and
it's
a
really
critical
program.
In
order
to
make
evanston's
bus
routes
accessible.
C
The
funding
that
was
submitted
was
300
a
little
over
300
000.
The
full
amount
was
approved
to
be
submitted
as
part
of
the
grant.
The
cost
of
the
city
is
only
10
percent
of
that
which
is
fantastic.
Rta
provides,
usually
a
local
match
for
federal
funding
requires
a
20
local
match.
Rta
matches
the
city's
match.
So
then
the
city
only
needs
to
do.
10
percent
of
the
funding
so
to
get
all
of
our
bus
stops
accessible
for.
Only
thirty
thousand
dollars
will
be
a
pretty
fantastic
deal.
C
B
Yeah-
and
I
would
just
say
this-
is,
I
think,
the
first
project
just
can
I
work
on
together
to
get
the
stops
accessible
on
dodge
between
oakton
and
all
the
way
up
to
maine,
and
it
is
the
only
thing
that
I've
ever
done
in
my
four
years
here
that
no
one
has
complained
about
there's
been
people
where
we
took
out
grass
in
front
of
their
house
and
put
in
the
the
the
concrete
pads.
I
think
we
had
one
person
at
the
meeting
who
had
an
objection,
and
this
was
only
like.
B
Can
you
move
it
down
a
half
an
inch
or
something
and
it
worked
out?
Fine,
but,
and
then
stephen
walker
and
his
team
came
and
put
some
really
nice
planters
out,
which
everyone
loves,
and
we
have
some
actual
bus
stops
with
a
sign.
So
I
am
very
excited
for
this.
B
I
know
people
who
catch
the
bus
regularly
in
my
ward,
who
use
the
pads,
have
asked
you
know
about
going
other
places
in
the
city
and
then
there
is
no
pad
particularly
people
who
are
in
walkers
and
wheelchairs
and
it's
snowing
and
all
those
kind
of
things
and
everyone
who
has
one
near
their
house.
I
think
pretty
much
because
I
try
to
check,
also
comes
out
and
they
shovel
up
they're.
You
know
appreciative
of
having
it
and
then
they
also
come
out
and
shovel
it.
B
So
I
will
just
tell
you
you
know,
for-
and
these
are
the
people
on
dodge-
who
don't
necessarily
like
the
bike
lanes,
because
that
was
some
people
didn't
like
the
bike
lanes,
but
they
have
really
embraced
these
pads
and
we
lost
parking
for
some
of
them
and
everyone
has
survived
as
well,
so,
hopefully
jessica.
When
this
gets
going,
you
can
bring
everyone
for
a
little
walk
down
dodger.
They
can
see
that
it's
worked
very
well.
So
I'm
really
excited
to
see
these
going
all
over
the
city.
C
Yeah,
thank
you
alderman
fleming,
and
I
think
that
pilot
project
is
really
what
proved
to
me
in
several
other
people
at
the
community
that
this
is
a
project
that
we
can
move
forward
with.
Just
because
of
the
general
support
and
lack
of.
C
B
Yeah
there's
a
person
who
catches
the
bus
right
on
oakton
and
in
front
of
the
shell
station
oakton
and
dodge
and
there's
a
pad.
It
was
the
first
one
we
did.
I
think
before
you
got,
it
was
a
pad
and
an
actual
bench.
B
He
complains
when
he
comes
back
on
the
bus,
because
on
the
other
side
of
the
street,
there's
no
pad,
he
gets
off
in
the
snow
and
the
mud
and-
and
so
it's
a
noticeable
difference,
and
it
just
makes
people
feel
like
as
alice's
about
with
the
bike
riders
that
people
don't
just
discard
people
who
are
actually
relying
on
public
transportation.
C
Well,
so
more
to
come
on
that,
and
hopefully
everything
goes
through
fine
with
cmap,
and
I
have
nothing
but
more
good
news
to
share
with
you
in
the
future
and
then
just
the
last
thing
I
wanted
to
let
everyone
know.
C
This
is
something
that's
been
out
for
a
little
while
now,
but
cmap
released
a
regional
sidewalk
inventory
and
so,
and
they
also
provided
recommendations
for
how
to
use
that
sidewalk
inventory
in
your
community,
and
I
am
going
to
be
taking
taking
that
memo
that
they
provided
on
the
sidewalk
inventory
and
doing
some
analysis
to
look
at
pedestrian
infrastructure
needs
around.
Where
do
we
have
sidewalks
and
missing
links
in
evanston?
And
how
can
we
actually
prioritize
funding
for
that?
You
know
so.
C
First,
this
is
just
a
you
know,
fact-finding
mission,
so
there's
there's
no
policy
or
proposal.
That's
going
to
be
submitted,
but
I'll
be
doing
that
research
sharing
that
internally
with
staff
to
have
get
some
feedback
and
comment
on
and
then
hopefully
bringing
back
something
to
you
all
in
the
nearest
future.
B
Great
and
I
think
you've
you
and
I
talked
about
this
too,
but
I
think
you
you
know
that
I
forgot
who,
but
one
of
the
staff
with
laura
and
dave,
did
some
kind
of
sidewalk
inventory
at
some
point.
I
don't
know
if
they
finished
the
whole
city.
I
know
that
they
finished
my
ward,
but
that's
another.
That
would
be
another
huge
feat
if
we
can
get
some
sidewalks
connecting
so
people
can
actually
walk
everywhere.
