B
Mr.
chair
members
of
the
committee,
our
third
public
hearing
today
is
in
support
of
an
amendment
to
title
18,
chapter
474
of
the
Minneapolis
Code
of
Ordinances
related
to
the
traffic
codes
and
vehicle
operation.
This
public
hearing
supports
an
action
to
add
a
new
section
on
the
process
for
establishing
speed
limits
for
city
streets,
which
has
authority
that
has
been
granted
to
us
from
the
state
of
Minnesota,
Steve,
nosing
and
Ethan
folly
from
traffic,
and
our
vision.
Zero
coordinator
will
be
co-presenting.
Information
related
to
this
item.
Good.
F
Morning
mr.
chair
members
of
the
committee,
Steve
Moline
traffic
operations,
engineer
for
the
Department
of
Public
Works
I'm
here
today
to
provide
an
overview
of
the
proposed
new
speed
limit
ordinance
on
August
1st
2019,
the
State
Legislature
granted
Minnesota
cities,
the
authority
to
set
speeds
on
streets
under
their
jurisdiction
of
the
city,
speed
limits
under
the
streets
of
county
and
Minnesota
Department
of
Transportation
jurisdiction
are
not
part
of
this
legislation
and
will
continue
to
be
set
by
the
state.
F
The
proposed
speed
limit
or
iners
ordinance
before
you
today
is
a
step
within
the
process
for
the
city
of
Minneapolis
to
set
speed
limits
on
city-owned
streets.
As
such,
the
City
Minneapolis
needs
to
amend
title
18
chapter
474
of
the
Minneapolis
Code
of
Ordinances
related
to
traffic
code.
This
amendment
will
add
new
section
four.
Seventy
four
point,
four
to
four
four
to
zero
that
aligns
with
the
establishment
of
speed
limits
on
city
roads
in
accordance
with
Minnesota
State
statute.
One
six,
nine
point:
one
four:
the
proposed
ordinance
does
not
specify
a
new
limits.
A
There
any
questions
for
the
staff
overview,
seeing
none.
This
is
a
public
hearing
and
I
will
open
it
up.
Anyone
signed
in
no
one
has
signed
in
anyone
wish
to
come
forward
and
make
comment.
Anyone
wish
to
come
forward
and
make
comment
scenes
and
Oh
someone's
coming
forward.
Thank
you
and
to
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record.
G
Yes,
my
name
is
Jesse
Lorenz
I
live
in
Linden
Hills
good
morning,
I'm
a
driver
in
Minneapolis
I
drove
here
this
morning
and
I
wanted
to
be
here,
because
I
think
this
is
a
very
important
first
step
in
this
process.
I
support
this
very
strongly.
I
have
two
small
children
and
the
leading
cause
of
death
for
their
age
group
is
being
hit
by
a
driver
or
more
vehicle.
I
think
that
this
can't
come
soon
enough.
G
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
everyone
in
this
room
knows
this
is
a
very
small
first
step
and
that
we
really
need
to
change
the
design
of
our
streets
as
I
was
researching.
This
I
discovered
that
the
city
of
yeah
in
the
past
two
years
just
changed
their
speed
limits,
so
arterial
streets
now
are
25
miles
per
hour
in
the
city
of
Seattle
and
for
city
streets
like
the
one
in
front
of
where
I
live,
they're
20
miles
per
hour.
G
I
think
this
is
critically
important
and
I
want
to
say
this
is
the
very
beginning,
and
it's
the
very
beginning.
You
know
we're
not
discussing
the
speed
limit
here
today,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
everyone
knows.
This
is
a
ground
rule,
because
the
difference
between
20
miles
per
hour
and
30
miles
per
hour
today
is
that
if
my
child
gets
hit
by
a
car,
they're
gonna
have
a
110
percent
1
in
10
chance
of
dying
at
20
miles
per
hour
by
the
speed
limit.
That
is
today
at
30
miles
per
hour.
G
A
You
for
your
comments.
Anyone
else
wish
to
come
forward
and
make
comment.
Emma
knows
to
come
forward.
Thank
you
for
that
commentary
as
well-informed
and
I
think
our
staff
will
take
it
to
heart,
certainly
as
policymakers,
we
are
guided
by
the
compass
of
safety,
and
this
policy
actually
is
about
flexibility
in
our
ability
to
address
safety
issues.
Primarily
I
will,
before
we
take
a
vote
on
this,
to
move
forward
with
the
work
I'm
gonna
issue,
a
staff
direction.
I
believe
we
all
have
it
before
us.
Mm-Hmm
and
I
will
read
it.
A
It's
directing
public
works
to
present
a
report
on
the
technical
analysis
and
communications
plan
for
speed,
limit
changes
to
the
transportation
of
public
works
committee
by
no
later
than
March
17th
2020.
Furthermore,
directing
the
city
engineer
to
set
speed
limits
that
a
support
reaching
the
city's
vision,
zero
traffic
safety
goal
of
zero
traffic
deaths
or
severe
injuries
reflect
the
city's
Complete
Streets
policy
by
improving
access
and
comfort
for
people,
walking,
biking
and
taking
transit,
support,
moving
people
and
goods
and
are
reasonable,
comfortable
and
technically
defensible.
I
will
open
this
up
for
any
conversation.
Comer
Fletcher.
H
Thank
You,
chair
first
of
all,
I
really
appreciate
this
I
think
this
is
exactly
the
right
way
to
frame
this
up
and
to
move
this
forward
and
I
appreciate
the
public
testimony
that
I
think
really
helps
frame
up
the
importance
of
what
we're
doing
here
and
and
why
this
matters
I.
Think
the
the
one
thing
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
looking
at
as
we
consider
this,
that's
not
reflected
in
the
staff
direction
and
I'm
gonna
suggest
a
friendly
amendment,
so
that
we
can
make
sure
this
is
here.
H
Is
that
a
lot
of
times
when
we
look
at
a
street
we're
looking
at
its
current
use
and
often
I've
been
the
voice
of
getting
us
to
look
more
forward
and
getting
us
to
plan
for
a
future
land-use
so
that
we
don't
find
ourselves
constantly
playing
catch-up
to
new
development
and
so
I
think
I
would
totally
support
this
and
I'd
like
to
offer
a
friendly
amendment.
That
adds
a
bullet
point,
maybe
after
the
second
one
before
the
third
one.
H
There
that
reads
reflect
projected
future
street
use,
resulting
from
anticipated
land-use
changes
just
to
make
sure
that
we're
sort
of
cooking
in
looking
forward
and
and
contemplating
what
kinds
of
developments
are
being
built.
I
think
that's
a
lot
of
the
constituent
feedback
that
I've
been
getting
about
street
uses
that
they
feel
like
we're,
not
necessarily
as
good
at
thinking
about
what
the
impact
of
future
development
is
going
to
be
as
we
as
we
ought
to
be
so
and
make
sure
we're
clicking
that
in
thank.
A
D
I
was
at
a
public
meeting
last
night,
similar
to
one
I'm
sure
that
many
of
you
have
attended
in
your
communities
where
I
had
you
know,
probably
50
or
60
people
there
demanding
changes
to
a
roadway
that
cuts
through
our
community.
This
happens
to
be
a
County
Road
Lyndale
Avenue
South,
which
is
one
of
the
least
safe
roadways
in
our
city,
and
you
know
it
just
really
hit
home
to
me.
D
The
commentary
we're
just
person
after
person
after
person
talking
about
how
unsafe
they
feel
in
their
own
community
and
I
shared
as
well,
echoing
what
the
person
said,
who
testified
as
a
mom
of
two
small
children,
I
I,
feel
terrified,
trying
to
walk
and
bicycle
around
my
community
getting
to
the
park
with
them
to
the
store.
You
know,
bicycling
with
a
small
child
is
one
of
the
scariest
things
I've
ever
done
and
I
want
them
to
have
that.
You
know
I
want
them
to
have
that
physical
activity.
D
We
are
a
family
that
is
lucky
to
have
options
and
choice
about
how
we
get
around,
but
many
of
my
neighbors
do
not
for
many
many
reasons,
and
so
I'm
really
thankful
for
this
step
that
we're
making
as
a
city
for
the
leadership
that
our
staff
in
public
works
and
igr
showed
work
working
for
so
many
years
to
change
state
law.
You
know
I,
think
with
support
from
other
communities
around
Minnesota
that
maybe
was
a
little
unexpected.
D
How
many
communities
wanted
to
be
able
to
this
option
to
have
local
control
over
the
speeds
of
our
roads
and
something
I
tell
my
constituents
that
is
so
important
about?
This
is
not
just
you
know
how
towhat
the
traffic
sign
says,
but
also
how
our
engineers
are
designing
the
road
from
the
beginning
and
the
design
speed
that
this
will
help
change.
D
You
know
really
thinking
about
future
land
uses,
but
also
the
speed
for
which
we
are
expecting
vehicles
to
travel
and
how
that
affects
the
way
that
we
will
design
our
streets
in
the
future.
So
I
think
this
is
a
really
big
change
and
that
will
have
a
lot
of
impact.
I'm
excited
about
the
timeline
that
we're
on
I
think
it
gives
us
enough
time
to
be
thoughtful
and
data-driven
and
coordinate
with
local
communities
around
us
from
the
most
consistency,
but
also
take
action
as
soon
as
possible.
D
I
You
mr.
chair
and
I
really
appreciate
the
staff
direction.
I
think
that
this
is
really
important
and
I
appreciate
councilmember
Fletcher's
amendment
to
it
I
also
support
reducing
speed
limits
in
our
city.
I
do
struggle
with
passing
the
ordinance
today
just
from
a
process
standpoint,
because
I
would
like
to
see
a
report
that
actually
lays
out
what
the
plan
is
as
the
communication
plan
in
there.
I
A
B
Chair
and
council
member
Johnson,
our
work
is
done
in
close
coordination
with
the
city
of
st.
Paul,
who
recently
passed
their
ordinance
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
we'd
like
to
stay
consistent
with
them.
Do
this
together
as
much
as
possible
and
make
this
city
legislative
change
prior
to
discussions
beginning
again
in
the
nice
next
state
legislative
session.
This
will
safeguard
our
ability
to
exercise
authority
in
the
spring,
and
this
is
why
we
brought
it
forward
at
this
time.
B
We
look
forward
to
providing
you
with
more
detail
on
our
process
on
exactly
where
the
data
and
analysis
puts
us.
You
can
expect
to
have
a
lot
more
information,
as
is
detailed
in
the
staff
direction
and
including
the
addition
to
the
staff
direction.
We'll
begin
thinking
about
how
we
incorporate
that
and
we're
happy
to
meet
with
you
offline
as
the
process
goes
forward.
J
You
mr.
chair
I,
don't
want
to
be
labor.
This
I
just
want
to
also
make
sure
to
thank
Public
Works
for
picking
up
vision,
zero
as
a
whole
for
picking
it
up
in
a
really
thoughtful
and
data-driven
way.
Director
you've
really
helped
to
lead
this
in
a
way
with
other
city
leadership,
including
the
Attorney's
Office,
including
police
leadership,
including
everybody,
and
it
really
will
take
a
lot
for
us
to
get
to
where
we
want
to
be
I'm,
especially
interested
and
I,
think
that
we
all
are
very
generally
supportive
of
lowering
a
speed
limit.
J
I
think
we
have
more
discussion
to
be
had
around
the
right
way
to
educate
people
in
the
right
way
to
enforce
something
like
a
speed
limit
change,
I
to
have
an
active
and
organized
group
of
residents
around
this
in
part,
evidence
by
mr.
Lorenz
who
came
today.
Thank
you
for
coming.
I
also
have
to
say
that
of
all
the
things
that
I
talked
to
young
people
about
vision,
zero
as
an
initiative
is
the
one
that
excites
young
people
the
most
a
couple
weeks
ago.
It
was
a
group
at
an
elementary
school
last
night.
J
A
You
any
other
commentary,
Sina
and
I
will
just
echo
the
comments
that
are
made
by
my
colleagues.
I
do
council,
member
Johnson,
I,
think
I
believe
the
director
is
sincere
and
moving
forward
and
working
with
you
and
any
other
council
member
who
may
not
be
on
the
committee
and
not
as
a
meshed
in
this
work,
but
just
to
know,
if
that,
yes,
it's
a
David,
data-driven
approach
to
a
tool
and
the
tool
as
a
councilmember,
Palmisano
and
councilmember
bender
have
mentioned,
is
part
of
a
bigger
game
plan
and
that
game
plan
is
not
just
something.
A
That's
we
just
cooked
up.
It's
overdue.
Many
cities
around
the
world
have
already
implemented
a
vision,
zero,
it's
one
of
the
areas
where
we're
actually
following,
not
leading
and
and
we
are
very
eager
to
implement,
and
we
need
the
tool
to
do
so.
Speaking
of
the
greater
body
of
work,
I
will
note
that
mr.
A
Fawley
here
has
been
diligently
working
on
this
task
and
has
crafted
a
master
plan,
of
which
this
is
just
a
part,
a
significant
part,
but
it
falls
within
that
plan
and
it's
a
solid
plan
and
it
allows
us
to
make
these
bold
moves
and
make
requests
of
the
legislature
with
a
firm
basis
and
a
compelling
story.
So
thank
you
for
that.
With
that,
there's
no
further
commentary
I'll
move
the
item
as
amended
by
a
councilmember
Fletcher,
all
I'm
approval,
say
aye
all.
A
B
Mr.
chair
members
of
the
committee,
this
is
a
nice
segue
into
an
important
item
that
we're
presenting
to
you
today,
which
is
the
proposal
of
our
final
vision,
zero
action
plan
and
I
wanted
to
start
by
saying
a
couple
of
words.
First
to
thank
the
political
leadership
behind
vision,
zero,
which
you
showed
years
ago
when
you
passed
this
resolution
and
is
now
policy
that
allowed
us
to
begin
the
work.
B
The
reason
that
Ethan
and
I
reached
out
to
him-
and
this
was
Ethan's
idea
and
I-
so
appreciate
him.
Bringing
this
forward
was
because
we
noticed
that
Alex
was
a
part
of
this
plane
and
his
picture
was
included
in
the
plan,
and
his
picture
is
shown
here
and
his
picture
shows
him
with
the
ideas
for
how
to
make
bicycling
safer
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
and
this
really
struck
Public
Works.
It
certainly
struck
us,
as
even
more
of
a
tragedy,
to
think
that
someone
who
was
active
and
contributing
lost
his
life
on
our
streets.
B
B
K
Thank
You,
chair
Reich
and
members
of
the
committee,
so
I
just
also
wanted
to
acknowledge
a
few
things
that
the
wolf
shared
with
us
yesterday.
He
said
that
Alex
would
want
us
to
make
the
streets
safer
for
folks.
He
wouldn't
want
to
pass
blame,
and
he
said
also
that
to
remind
if
it's
a
reminder
for
everyone
that
if
someone
is
killed,
it
isn't
just
a
name.
K
All
right
so
in
September,
I
shared
an
overview
of
the
draft
division,
zero
action
plan
and
gonna
report
back
just
on
feedback
that
we
heard
through
our
public
comment
period
and
changes
that
we
have
made
it
to
the
plan
to
reflect
that
comment.
So
you
all
know
and
I
think
we're
just
reminded
in
the
most
personal
way
of
our
goal
and
of
getting
to
zero
deaths
and
severe
injuries
on
city
streets
by
2027.
K
K
So
we
had
our
conversation
about
speed
limits
earlier,
so
reducing
speed
limits
as
part
of
our
state
streets
work,
as
is
proactive
safety
improvements
on
our
high
injury
streets,
which
are
you
know,
focusing
investments
on
the
nine
percent
of
streets
where
we
see
70
percent
of
fatal
and
severe
crashes
over
ten
years
in
the
city,
so
that
we
can
make
the
most
impact
and
working
to
do
those
in
the
next
three
years
on
as
many
streets
as
possible.
We're
also
looking
to
focus
education,
communications
and
equitable
enforcement
efforts
on
the
the
five
most
unsafe
behaviors.
K
We
see
on
city
streets,
the
ones
that
are
leading
to
the
most
severe
injuries
and
deaths,
so
that
again
we
can
maximize
the
impact
of
those
activities
to
improve
safety
on
our
streets.
We're
also
looking
to
seek
legislative
authority
and
set
up
the
systems
to
be
able
to
implement
automated
traffic
enforcement
on
in
coordination
with
that
focus
on
unsafe
behaviors.
There
are
also
sections
related
to
safe
vehicles
and
safety
data,
recognizing
importance
of
those
systems
and
reaching
our
goal
as
well.
I
do
want
to
note
that
this
is
a
three
year
action
plan.
K
K
If
people
have
questions
about
some
of
the
details
of,
we
know
what
were
the
themes
within
that,
but
I'm
happy
to
go
into
the
more
detail
if
you'd
like
and
then
we
also
heard
a
desire
from
some
folks
I
would
say.
Generally,
we
heard
support
for
our
focus
on
the
most
unsafe
behaviors,
but
we
also
heard
some
people
say
we
want
you
to
focus
more
on
bicyclists,
pedestrian
or
scooter
behavior
within
that
and
then
the
other
side.
K
We
also
heard
from
some
folks
who
wanted
us
to
focus
even
more
on
driver
behavior
than
the
five
most
unsafe
behaviors
drive
us
to
so,
overall,
those
were
the
the
top
things
that
were
talked
about
in
the
comments
I.
You
know,
I
I
want
to
reflect
also
that
we
heard
from
fewer
people
during
this
stage
in
the
process
than
earlier
stages
of
the
process
when
we
engaged
more
than
3000
people.
The
themes
are
generally
similar,
although
I
wouldn't
reflect
I.
K
So,
based
on
that
feedback,
we
are
making
some
changes.
There
are
other
things
as
well.
We
wanted
to
kind
of
one
of
the
comments
we
heard
about.
Speed
limits
is
lowering
the
speed
when
it's
not
gonna
have
an
impact
you
need
to
enforce.
The
current
speed
limit
was
some
kind
of
the
refrain
from
people
who
were
concerned
about
us,
reducing
the
speed
limit
and,
and
so
we
added
a
more
comprehensive
recognition
of
our
approach
on
safe
speeds,
which
speed
limits
is
just
a
part
of
that,
and
it's
a
really
important
part,
but
design
education
enforcement.
K
All
that
coming
together
is
really
important.
We
also
added
a
equitable
enforcement
related
action
under
this
speed
limit
strategy,
just
to
recognize
using
that
tool
for
their
education,
communications,
work
and
honoring
the
feedback
that
we
heard
in
the
process
and
then
in
recognition
of
comments
about
adding
more
focus
for
pedestrian,
bicyclists
and
Scooby
hater.
K
We
feel
that
our
focus
on
the
top
five
unsafe
behaviors
at
the
correct
path
and
was
generally
supported
by
folks,
but
we
wanted
to
add
a
little
bit
more
introduction
and
speak
to
the
importance
of
everyone
being
safe,
so
I
think
what
we
see
from
you
know,
the
tragedies
I
mentioned
is
that
this
is
not
a.
This
is
not
about
bicyclists.
This
is
not
about
pedestrians.
This
is
not
about
drivers;
this
is
about
people
fundamentally
and
and
all
of
us
wanting
to
be
safe.
K
However,
we
get
around
the
city,
and
then
we
also
heard
some
comments
that
we
could
have
a
little
bit
more
and
intentionally
focused
around
people
with
disabilities
and
older
adults,
which
are
especially
vulnerable
populations
on
our
streets,
and
so
we
added
in
some
additions
related
to
that
as
well.
So
those
are
the
changes,
not
huge
changes
from
the
draft
that
you
heard
more
details
about
in
September,
but
before
you
for
consideration.
Thank
you.
D
D
So
I
appreciate
so
much
that
that
this
plan
really
took
the
time
to
put
that
meat
behind
the
recommendations
that
came
forward
and
then
I
didn't
want
to
say
just
another
comment
about
enforcement,
particularly
I
know.
There
was
discussion
separately
at
the
public
safety
and
emergency
management
committee
and
some
discussion
about
budget
requests
for
enforcement
in
MPD
and
I've
voiced
a
lot
of
concern
about
that.
D
I
want
to
you,
know,
kind
of
add
a
little
detail
to
that
concern
and
share
that
that's
smart,
Cunningham
and
I
are
working
on
a
staff
direction
that
would
accompany
any
kind
of
budget
investment
in
traffic
enforcement
in
MPD.
First
of
all,
I
think
it's
I
think
my
colleagues
know,
but
for
the
public,
it's
not
true
that
the
city
of
Minneapolis
doesn't
do
traffic
stops.
There
were
over
20,000
traffic
stops.
Last
year
there
have
been
nearly
20,000
traffic
stops
this
year.
D
It
may
be
true
that
we
aren't
targeting
the
top
five
behaviors
that
would
increase
people,
safety,
walking
and
biking
and
driving
in
our
community.
So
I
think
you
know
in
order
to
really
understand
how
enforcement
is
an
important
part
of
this
division,
zero
plan
I
think
any
kind
of
police
enforcement
of
traffic
would
need
to
follow
this
framework
that
has
been
so
carefully
created
and
have
a
very
intentional
focus
on
that
question
of
race
equity.
Because
again,
we
see
very
large
disparities
in
traffic
stops
today,
and
we
see
disparities
in
where
crashes
are
happening.
D
So
I
think
that
needs
to
be
a
public
discussion
about
how
we're
we're
balancing
keeping
people
safe,
knowing
there
are
also
racial
disparities
in
traffic
fatalities
and
crashes,
but
not
letting
our
enforcement
strategies
to
exacerbate
those
those
problems
and
disparities
in
our
community.
So
it's
a
complex
issue
and
I
think
you
know
I
think
it'd
be
ok
with
customer
cunningham.
D
If
I
shared
you
know
kind
of
direction,
we're
going
is
to
really
hope
that
MPD
would
create
a
position
similar
to
this
position
in
Public
Works
to
be
able
to
really
have
that
staff
to
staff
coordination.
That's
strategic,
that's
data-driven!
That's
making
sure
MPD
is
tracking
these
top
five
behaviors
that
have
been
identified
as
the
biggest
causes
of
crashes.
Those
aren't
being
tracked
today
and
making
sure
that
we're
tracking
our
progress
over
time
again
on
targeting
behaviors
that
are
leading
to
crashes,
on
keeping
careful
track
of
racial
disparities
and
continuing
to
balance
those
two
goals.
D
So
I
appreciate
so
much
the
way
the
chief
and
the
director
have
been
able
to
you
talk
about
this
in
the
middle
of
budget
season
when
things
are
a
little,
sometimes
tense,
and
sometimes
fine,
but
I,
think
we'll
get
to
a
good
place
and
I
think
you
know
I.
Think
traffic
enforcement
is
an
important
piece
of
the
plan,
that's
clear
in
the
goals,
but
also
that
really
needs
to
be
that
same
careful
and
strategic
thought
that
has
come
into
this
overall
plan.
So
thanks
for
indulging
my
comments,
thank.
I
You
mr.
chair
I
just
want
to
commend
staff
for
their
work
on
this.
It's
really
critically
important
and
I
really
appreciate
the
names
that
took
a
moment
to
recognize,
including
one
of
my
constituents
that
was
tragically
killed
last
week.
It's
it's
deeply
personal
I.
Think
about
just
my
own
experiences
around
this
I.
Had
somebody
total
my
car
hit
and
run
and
totaled
my
car
last
year,
no
less
than
three
times
last
year,
I
came
within
less
than
a
foot
of
being
hit
by
other
drivers,
as
I
was
a
pedestrian
crossing.
I
I
There's
so
many
experiences
that
I
personally
have
that
are
negative:
around
bad
driving,
behavior
and
dangerous
streets
and
roads
and
law-breaking,
and
the
sad
part
is
I'm,
not
alone.
Everybody
has
these
stories
and
it's
it's
kind
of
surprising.
We
don't
see
more
people
injured,
but
this
is
such
an
important
public
safety
issue,
because
people's
lives
are
at
risk
every
single
day,
and
this
is
a
great
plan
that
you've
put
together,
really
well
thought-out.
I
That
I
think
will
help
move
us
in
the
right
direction
so
that
people
don't
have
to
suffer
those
injuries
and
that
we
have
more
healthy,
happy
people
in
our
city
as
a
result,
because
we
reduced
the
dangers
out
there
and
hopefully
can
one
day
say:
we've
achieved
vision,
zero
with
zero
accidents,
zero
injuries.
Thank
you.
K
Thank
you
for
those
comments.
Councilmember,
Johnson
and
I.
Think
one
thing
I
just
would
want
to
add
kind
of
reflecting
on
the
tragedy
is
also
we
can
achieve
this.
We
can
get
to
safe
streets
and
have
it
so
that
people
can
get
around,
and
so
that's
the
vision
we've
set
forth
and
we
can
achieve
it
together
so
and
I
and
I
think
that's
also
the
hope
I
take
from
our
conversation,
Robin
in
my
conversation
with
Alex,
Wolf's,
father
and
and
from
the
vision
that
that
he
shared
with
us
in
our
planning
process.
Thank
you.
H
This
is
consistently
feedback
that
comes
through
my
office
and
that
we
hear
over
and
over
and
over
again
people's
concerns
about
intersections
people's
concerns
about
safety,
and
you
know
the
statistics
that
you
showed
showed
serious
injury
and
I,
don't
know
exactly
where
we
draw
the
line
on
serious
injury,
but
I
just
want
a
name
that
there
are
four
people
who
have
experienced
getting
hit
by
a
car
if
they
merely
got
bruised
and
knocked
down,
and
they
didn't
have
to
get
taken
to
the
hospital.
They
do
not
feel
any
safer
in
that
intersection.
H
It
creates
a
huge
sense
of
people
are
not
saying
like.
Oh,
this
can
wait
three
years
because
I
only
got
bruised
they're
saying:
oh,
my
god.
This
intersection
is
unsafe
and
the
experience
that
people
are
having
witnessing
those
accidents
witnessing
those
interactions.
I've
had
several
where
people
have
called
me
and
said
this
thing
just
happened.
Sometimes
this
thing
just
happened
in
front
of
a
police
officer
and
the
police
officer
did
nothing.
H
L
Necessarily
have
a
question,
but
I
do
have
an
amendment
I
would
like
to
introduce
to
the
plan.
Please
know
this
is
you
should
have
it
before
you
so
and
I
offer
this
very
reason,
especially
I
think
this
is
a
great
plan
and
I
really
appreciate
all
the
work
that
went
into
it
and
all
the
the
goals
that
we've
set
and
all
the
strategies.
L
The
amendment
and
I'll
just
note
that
turnin
trucks
have
been
a
they
don't
account
for
a
vast
majority
of
accidents
and
fatalities
in
our
city,
but
there's
two
that
I'm
readily
aware
of
and
I
think
it's
a
significant
enough
problem
and
there's
the
possibility
that
there's
some
technology
that
could
really
help
with
this,
and
so
we
should
at
least
be
looking
at
it
for
our
own
vehicles
or
maybe
for
vehicles
that
we
contract
with.
But
I
also
think
this
plans
to
see
to
support
legislative
efforts
and
other
requirements
in
the
future.
L
A
You
for
that
I'll.
Take
that
as
a
motion
for
this
amendment.
Is
there
any
further
discussion
or
query
for
the
author
of
the
amendment
I've
seen
them
all
in
favor
of
the
amendment
as
submitted
by
councillor
Gordon
see
I
I
sent
a
name
that
amendment
carries
in
the
full
document
before
us.
Any
further
discussion
consoles
president
Thank.
D
D
Think
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
that,
because
I
think
it
has
been
so
important
to
the
success
we've
had
so
far
in
adding
safety
improvements
in
our
streets,
both
in
by
applying
a
Complete
Streets
lens
to
Street
reconstructions,
to
applying
a
race,
equity
and
transportation,
access
and
equity
lens
to
our
capital
budgeting,
and
to
create
more
standalone
funds
for
safety
improvements
that
are
happening
outside
that
sort
of
traditional
capital
programming.
Where
really
everything
was
a
line
item
that
was
tied
to
a
specific
street.
D
So
the
idea
that
we
would
strike
every
single
crosswalk
in
the
city
with
more
high
visibility,
crosswalks
that
came
from
the
flexibility
of
our
budget.
You
know
the
idea
that
we
would
be
able
to
systematically
look
at
the
four-lane
arterioles
in
our
city,
in
partnership,
probably
with
the
county
and
MnDOT
for
most
of
them,
you
know,
would
would
likely
require
a
budget
item
that
isn't
tied
to
a
specific
roadway
and
I
think.
A
Thank
you
good
commentary.
Anyone
else
wish
to
make
comment
before
we
move
the
item.
I
will
just
say:
I,
concur
with
the
comments
made
by
the
colleagues.
There
is
a
certain
sense
of
urgency
that
comes
from
the
public,
the
issues
that
have
been
raised
that
are
being
addressed
by
vision.
Zero
are
apparent
both
in
the
thoroughness
of
your
research,
but
the
things
that
we've
heard
be
it
over
months
or
over
years.
A
In
addition
to
the
urgency
of
the
issues
that
our
community
has
raised
for
us
so
legal
hand
in
hand
and
I
just
cannot
wait
to
move
forward
and
start
implementing
it
with
that.
Any
further
discussion,
all
in
favor
of
adopting
the
final
2020
2020
to
Minneapolis
assertion,
zero
action
plan,
say
aye
dissenting
made
that
carries
and
thank
you
and
we
here
now
adjourned.
Mr.
