A
E
B
We
have
a
record
of
a
quorum,
we'll
conduct,
today's
business
of
which
we
have
10
items.
But
before
I
go
through
those

we
have
a
special
acknowledgement
and
recognition
before
we
start
the
business
of
the
committee.
B
Public
works,
water
treatment
and
distribution.
Director
glenn
garretts
is
retiring
after
leading
the
division
for
at
least
seven
years
between
his
time
at
the
city
of
bloomington,
and
here
in
minneapolis,
glenn
has
40
years
of
distinguished
public
service
bringing
safe
drinking
water
to
minnesotans
under
glenn's
leadership.
The
utility
has
succeeded
in
its
mission
in
reliably
providing
safe,
high
quality
drinking
water,
while
serving
as
an
effective
steward
of
public
resources
and
infrastructure,
and
is
well
positioned
to
continue
that
mission
upon
his
retirement
under
glenn's
tenure.
B
Some
of
the
major
programs
begun
under
his
work
and
leadership
include
the
automated
meter
infrastructure
implementation
to
provide
real-time.
Automated
meter
reads:
enabling
better
line
of
sight,
geographic
water
usage
and
eventual
web
portal
for
customers
to
monitor
their
usage
patterns,
full
rehabilitation
of
the
95
year
old,
freely,
filter
plant
to
modernize
filter
operations
and
upgrade
filter
media
to
granular
activated
carbon
to
ensure
great
tasting
water
is
produced
every
day
and
sustained
investment
in
renewal
of
distribution
and
treatment,
infrastructure
and
finally,
awards
received
under
glenn's.
Leadership
include
in
2014.
B
The
association
of
metropolitan
water
agencies,
sustainability
management
award
for
achieving
a
balance
of
innovation
and

in
areas
of

and
environmental

The
diversity

inclusion
award
by
the
american

association
for
demonstrated
excellence
and
leadership
in
displaying
a
diverse
culture
in
its
employment
practices
and
the
delivery
of
its
services,
and
in
this
year,
u.s
water,
utility,
residential
customer
satisfaction,
survey
and
jd
power
rank
the
city
of
minneapolis
highest
in
the
midwest
cities
based
on
customer
satisfaction,
that's
a
lot
of
hardware
and
I
believe
the
accomplishments
are
quite
significant.
B
F
Thank
you,
chair
reich.
I
appreciate
this
opportunity
to
publicly
recognize
glenn,
garrett's
or
g-squared,
as
he
likes
to
sign
off,
sometimes
to
lead
the
city's
division
of
water,
treatment,
distribution
or
waterworks
is
to
lead
a
team
of
over
200
professionals
that
ensure
the
most
basic
element
of
life
and
safety.
The
water
we
drink.
F
F
F
Glenn
would
bring
coffees
for
us
both
knowing
my
favorite
kind
americano,
one
inch
of
steamed
soy
milk.
Just
he
knows
bring
a
coffee
to
my
office
and
we
would
talk
about
how
to
bring
our
department
closer
together.
He
helped
temper
some
occasional
impatience
with
the
process
of
team
building
and
change.
He'd
offered
me
honest
feedback
that
really
helped
me
grow
into
my
own
leadership
role
and
he
supported
his
colleagues
across
the
division
and
they
are
listening
today
in
in
order
to
support
him
today
for
his
service
to
the
city.
F
F
B
Does
anyone
else
wish
to
make
comment
from
the
committee?
I
think
glenn
will
be
missed
in
his
leadership,
but
the
proof
of
his
leadership
is
that
the
foundation
of
that
department
is
so
strong.
Glenn
will
be
with
us
in
that
sense.
For
some
time.
B
C9,
I
will
now
go
to
the
consent
items
which
are
items
two
through
nine
on
our
agenda
as
I
go
through
them.
If
a
committee
member
wishes
to
pull
them
for
further
deliberation.
Actually
before
I
go,
I
do
see
council
member
johnson
in
the
queue
do
you
wish
to
have
the
floor?
Councilmember.
G
John
mr
chair,
I
didn't
want
to
let
this
moment
go
by
without
also
commenting
as
well
on
glenn
and
I
was
typing
to
get
into
the
queue
as
quick
as
I
could,
but
you
know
technology
and
working
remotely
anyways
glenn.
I
just
really
want
to
say
how
much
I
appreciate
all
the
work
together
over
the
years.
You've
always
been
just
so
responsive
as
a
department
or
division
leader
and
really
interested
in
addressing
any
sort
of
concerns
from
residents
that
we've
had
here
there.
G
But
overall.
I
also
think
as
well
that
you
know
the
fact
that
the
water
department
is
a
division,
that
we
do
not
hear
a
lot
about.
Just
really
speaks
to
the
leadership
and
the
work
that
you
all
do
that
it
is
really
well
run
and
that
we
don't
have
many
complaints.
It's
it's
very
infrequent
that
people
have
concerns.
G
I
can
count
on
one
hand,
probably
over
the
years
and
you've
been
really
great
about
addressing
those,
and
it
is
one
of
those
things
where
it's
easy
to
forget
when
it
works
so
well,
and
we
just
have
reliably
great
water,
which
is
essential
to
survival,
and
you
know
it.
G
It
you
make
it
look
easy,
and
you
know
it's
it's
because
of
your
leadership
and
dedication
of
you
and
your
team
that
we
have
the
best
water
in
the
nation,
and
so
we
just
are
very
thankful
for
all
of
your
work
and
really
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
so
much
and
best
wishes
and
everything
with.
H
That's
really
for
later,
but
since
I
have
your
attention,
cheers
best
of
luck
going
forward.
Thank
you.
So
much
for
all
your
service.
B
Well
done,
thank
you,
okay.
Well
with
that,
I
will
go
down
the
consent
items
and
I
will
note
cam.
We
will
let
you
have
the
floor
when
we
get
to
item
10
later
in
the
agenda.
B
So
item
two
is
the
grand
avenue
south
street
reconstruction
project
and
the
actions
required
to
move
forward
that
and
we
will
set

public

january
20th.
B

project,
cooperative
agreement
with
brooklyn
center
move
forward
with
that

the

and
partnerships
they're
in
three
four?
Is
the
well
there's
a
series
of
actions
with
that
one
and
two,
and
I
think,
there's
a
dollar
amount
listed.
The
contract
amendment
is
item
five
with
london
construction
company
for
the
tenth
avenue
southeast
river
bridge

the

seem
large,
but
it's
commensurate
with
the
size
of
the
project.
B

the
pci
roads
incorporated

temporary
access

concrete
sidewalks,

and
awards
granted
any
further
discussion
on
these
items.
B
E
C
I
F
J
The
proposed

of
reconstructing

a

million
dollars.

is
417
811.61.
J
J
This
meeting
was
held
on
november
10th
with
five
people
attending
today.
Public
works
is
asking
city
council
to
pass
resolutions
ordering
the
work
to
proceed,
adopting
special
assessments
authorizing
sale
of
the
assessment
bonds
and
authorizing
abandonment
and
removal
of
area
ways
in
conflict
with
the
project.
B
K
I
got
a
couple
of
letters
about
proposed
cost
for
the
assessments
letter
that
came
first
was
about
project
2326c
reconstruction
project.
The
second
one
was
the
very
abandonment
removal
construction
project.
The
one
had
the
proposed
cost,
the
parcel
at
5808,
the
other
one
said
zero.
B
That's
a
good
question.
I
think
staff
would
be
able
to
respond
to
that
question.
F
Mr
chair,
would
you
like
us
to
respond
now
or
hold
to
the
end
of
the
the
hearing.
B
K
That
thank
you.
Okay,
the
property
I
own
has
driveway
direct
to
johnson
street.
There
is
no
alley
on
this
block
when
they
decide
to
do
the
construction.
I
need
to
know
what
they're
going
to
do
for
driveway
access
if
they
need
water
shut
off
notices
and
if
there's
sewer
problems,
what
we
will
do
about
that,
if
we're
going
to
get
advanced
notice
of
these
things,
I've
had
problems
with
sewer
backing
up
before
and
had
to
have
the
main
lane
cleaned.
K
B
Adopted
all
good
questions-
I
I
know
staff
is
taking
note
of
them
and
what
we'll
do
is
we'll
take
questions
from
other
presenters,
including
yourself
and
we'll
respond
to
them
in
order
just
for
efficiency.
Given
this
remote
format,.
B
B
Thank
you
for
that.
If
she
reemerges,
we
will
allow
her
time
to
speak.
Moving
down
to
the
sign
up
sheet.
Lily
williams
has
been
please
state
your
name
and
address
for
the
record
star
six
to
immune.
L
B
J
J
We
will
have
a
project
website
that
will
update
property
owners
on
upcoming
work
and
we
will
have
a
pre-construction
meeting
prior
to
construction
to
go
through
details
related
to
construction
in
terms
of
closures
and
duration
of
closures
and
the
like.
With
regard
to
the
assessment
question
and
the
two
mail
mailers
that
were
sent
out
I'll,
allow
our
assessment
office
to
respond.
F
Mr
chair
I'll
invite
jeff
handlin
to
respond,
and
if
we
are
unable
to
provide
the
necessary
detail,
we
are
happy
to
follow
up
individually
as
long
as
we
can
get
the
correct
name
and
phone
number.
So
if
we
can
try
to
answer
the
detailed
question
today,
if
we're
unable
to,
we
can
follow
up
individually.
D
D
Yes,
thank
you
director
hutchinson,
mr
chair
members
of
the
committee,
I'm
jeff
handland,
I'm
a
principal
professional
engineer
in
the
transportation
engineering
design,
division
of
public
works.
To
answer
the
the
questions
this
public
hearing
is
for
the
adoption
of
the
street
reconstruction
assessments
at
the
amounts
that
were
noticed
to
the
property
owners.
D
D
B
Held
well
thank
you
for
that
clarification.
I
if
we,
if
mary
hall,
is
still
listening.
Certainly
you
can
contact
my
office
directly
with
any
further
questions
and
we'll
make
sure
the
appropriate
staff
people
get
you
the
answers.
If
we
did
not
satisfy
your
questions
or
if
you
have
new
ones
and
in
terms
of
the
staff
notifying
us
today
in
response
to
the
question
in
terms
of
how
we'll
continue
to
communicate
with
the
access
issues,
I
think
I've
gotten
some
good
confidence
built
up
with
the
feedback.
B
I've
gotten
how
staff
communicated
with
the
18th
avenue
phase
two
project
that
recently
got
the
primary
part
of
the
project
got
finished
and
I
got
really
good
feedback.
So
whatever
was
done
there,
we
should
repeat
that,
because
there
was
a
lot
of
satisfaction
and
how
that
that
was
managed
so
and
obviously
that
expectation
will
be
held
in
the
johnson
project
as
well
as
the
testifier
stated
is
a
concern.
So
we've
heard
our
hearing
we've
answered
the
questions
we
are
open
to
follow
up.
B
B
And
if
there
are
none,
I
will
just
comment.
I
know
a
lot
of
work.
Pre-Work
went
into
the
layout
of
this
project,
it's
a
a
major
major
street
and
community
connector.
It's
access
point
to
a
freeway.
It's
access
point
to
a
major,
probably
the
city's
largest
shopping
center
area,
and
it
goes
right
through
a
big
part
of
the
residential
and
small
commercial
part
of
my
ward
and
so
a
lot
of
and
home
to
one
of
our
high
frequency
bus
routes
for
a
lot
going
on.
B
One
of
the
things
that
you
know
I've
dealt
with
ever
since
I've
been
in
office
is
one
of
the
things
that
are
going
on
in
that
street
is
a
lot
of
errant
and
unsafe
traffic
behavior
and
a
clear
call
from
the
community
to
address
the
safety
issues
and
to
get
a
better
calmer,
more
multi-functional
street
in
place.
B
I
would
also
say
that
staff
put
in
extra
extra
hours
to
smooth
out
conflict
points,
certainly
around
the
small
local
business,
commercial
nodes,
vcp
parking
safety,
different
mode
users
and
all
those
things
that
oftentimes
can
be
in
conflict.
B
But
good
planning
and
good
communication
may
not
make
100
of
each
position
happy,
but
it
certainly
smooths
it
into
a
thing
where
you
can
really
see
how
it
was
fashioned
with
all
points
of
view
and
considerations
in
mind,
and
I
call
that
out
just
because
I
just
know
how
much
extra
work
the
staff
did
and
I
think
it
really
bore
out
of
the
design.
So
I
just
wanted
to
call
that
out
because
it
was
above
and
beyond
so
with
that.
I
C
I
L
B
That
move
that
forward
and
we
can
now
go
to
the
final
item-
discussion
item
number
10,
which
just
happens
to
be
a
real
big
deal.
It's
the
presentation
of
our
draft
transit
advisory
plan
with
that
I'll
give
the
floor
to
our
director.
F
So
the
first
thing
I
just
want
to
say
before
I
I
have
kathleen
present
to
you
is
thank
you
to
everyone
who
led
a
chapter
all
of
our
planners,
who
put
so
much
work
into
this.
You
set
aside
a
lot
of
other
work
to
get
this
done,
and
you
should
be
really
proud
of
what
you
see
here
today.
It's
your
work.
F
You
should
be
very
proud
to
our
steering
committee.
This
included
division
directors,
this
included
partners
from
other
departments.
You
made
this
doable
and
ready
implementable,
maintainable
coordinated.
Thank
you
for
the
time
that
you
spent
to
all
of
our
stakeholder
groups
and
contributors
from
the
public.
Everyone
who
took
the
time
to
comment.
I
hope
you
can
hear
your
voices
in
here
they're
in
there
we
took
great
care
with
your
ideas
and
with
your
constructive
feedback,
and
it
was
constructive
feedback
and
it
was
really
positive.
Thank
you.
F
I
also
want
to
say
thank
you
so
much
to
our
policy
makers,
our
council
members
to
the
mayor
and
his
staff.
All
of
you
actively
participated
in
the
development
of
this
plan.
Some
of
you
participated
on
a
policy
committee
and
provided
your
guidance
and
assistance
throughout
the
plans.
Development-
and
I
have
said
this
before-
but
bold
ideas
don't
live
without
your
leadership.
So
thank
you.
F
I
I'm
sorry
to
whoever
I
forgot
to
to
say
it
was
such
a
big
effort
across
so
many
divisions,
departments,
external
agencies,
stakeholder
groups,
just
to
everyone
who
helped
shape
this.
You
did
a
great
job.
I
I
also
want
to
mention
to
in
my
introduction
is
a
lot.
Has
changed
since
we
first
presented
this
this
draft,
and
so
much
has
come
to
light
and
we're
learning
this
summer
we
took
a
pause.
F
We
took
extra
time
for
a
reflection.
We
read
the
draft
plan
again
we
reached
back
out
to
communities
and
we
invited
more
discussion
and
we
reflected
on
how
our
plan
addresses
the
historic
inequities
created
by
past
decisions
in
our
transportation
infrastructure,
and
we
rewrote
some
things
and
we
added
some
things.
We
took
the
time
to
update
the
plan
to
strengthen
our
commitment
to
racial
equity
and
racial
justice,
with
the
tools
that
we
have
in
our
transportation
action
plan.
F
F
We
intend
to
move
as
quickly
as
we
can.
However,
we
know
that
we
may
be
challenged
this
year
with
our
budget
scenarios
for
the
city.
We
will
be
looking
for
as
many
opportunities
as
possible
and
we
may
at
times
need
to
consider
2022
or
2023
for
an
action
that
we
may
have
wanted
to
do
in
2021.
F
So
with
that,
I
will
now
introduce
kathleen
mayell
supervising
transportation,
planner
and
project
lead
for
the
transportation
action
plan.
I
want
to
thank
kathleen
for
leading
this
very
large
team
and
for
being
so
committed
to
bringing
forward
the
boldest
tenure
action
plan
possible.
So
with
that
kathleen,
please
take
it
away.
M
Good
afternoon
committee,
chair
and
council
members,
I'm
kathleen
mayell
trans
supervisor,
transportation,
planner
in
the
transportation,
planning
and
programming
division
of
public
works.
Thank
you,
director,
hutchinson
for
that
overview
and
acknowledgement
of
all
the
people
that
have
helped
bring
this
plan
together.
It
is
such
an
act
of
so
many
voices,
and
so
I'm
honored
and
a
bit
humbled
to
be
the
one
presenting
to
all
of
you,
the
final
plan
for
consideration
and
I'm
very
excited
about
it
as
well.
M
Today,
let's
go
over
three
different
items,
our
timeline
and
the
engagement.
What
we
heard
since
I
last
came
to
this
committee
in
march,
what
changes
we
made
from
the
draft
to
this
final
plan
and
a
quick
update
on
some
related
efforts
to
the
transportation
action
plan
next
slide.
Please
next
slide
please.
M
I
M
Few
days
later,
on
may
25th
george
floyd
died
and
we,
as
director
hutchinson
mentioned,
the
combination
of
where
we
were
at
with
kovid,
where
we
were
at
as
a
city
and
as
a
staff.
M
So
we
did
it
take
a
little
bit
longer
to
make
adjustments
relook
at
our
plan
and
as
you'll
note
when
I
go
through
the
changes
to
the
plan,
it's
reflected
in
this
final
plan.
In
august,
we
held
additional
conversations
based
on
equity,
with
a
number
of
different
community
organizations
which
I'll
share
a
bit
about,
in
a
few
slides,
wrapped
up
our
policy
advisory
committee
and
our
interagency
technical
advisory
committee,
both
of
those
committees
being
multi-year
efforts
in
october
and
then
bringing
the
plan
forward.
Today
the
plan
is
available
online.
M
M
Quickly,
this
I'll
report
a
bit
on
phase
three
engagement,
which
was
what
has
happened
between
march
9th
and
now,
and
just
a
reminder
that
this
is
rooted
within
our
minneapolis
2040
efforts
and
multiple
earlier
phases
of
engagement
around
the
transportation
action
plan.
Next
slide,
please.
M
During
our
comment
period,
we
heard
from
a
lot
of
people
a
lot
of
very
thoughtful
comments.
We
were
able
to
have
one
open
house
that
first
week
when
we
released
the
draft
transportation
action
plan
in
person
and
then
we
transferred
everything
online,
one
of
our
online
open
houses.
We
had
over
200
people
at
times,
so
there
was
quite
a
bit
of
engagement
around
the
plan.
M
We
overall
received
over
1700
comments
over
150,
unique
commenters
on
the
website
and
400
emails,
so
we
were
able
to
connect
with
quite
a
bit
of
people
during
this
these
summer
months.
Next
slide,
please.
M
We
have
summarized
all
the
feedback
that
we
heard
through
those
comments
in
a
phase.
Three
summary
engagement,
there's
a
couple
pages
of
overview
and
one
page
per
topic
area,
introducing
the
major
themes
that
we
heard
during
the
public
comment
period
and
then,
whether
or
not
we
adjusted
anything
in
the
plan
and
why
or
why
not?
We
did
adjust
something
so
that
is
all
available
online
in
our
engagement
process.
Section
of
our
website
next
slide,
please,
overall
what
we
heard
from
all
of
these
comments.
M
There
was
really
broad
support
for
the
plan
that
included
the
overarching
vision,
the
strategies,
the
mode
shift
goal,
the
focus
on
climate
and
equity
and
safety.
So
there
was,
there
was
a
lot
of
support.
It
wasn't
universal,
but
broadly
there
was
a
lot
of
support.
There
were,
however,
lots
and
lots
of
comments
about
specific
things
within
the
plan,
be
it
a
corridor
or
an
action
or
a
word
choice
to
strengthen
or
further
clarify
something.
M
A
couple
of
the
themes
that
we
did
here
were
looking
and
really
emphasizing
those
lower
cost,
quick
changes
on
our
streets
to
make
changes
and
improvements.
Now
to
what
we
see
out
on
our
streets,
there
was
a
lot
of
comments
around
winter
maintenance,
so
really
exploring
our
city
light
or
committing
to
our
city-led
snow
and
ice
of
sidewalks
and
additional
clearing
on
our
bikeways.
M
There
was
a
lot
of
urgency
expressed
for
trying
to
build
the
all
ages
and
abilities
bicycle
network
as
soon
as
possible.
A
lot
of
comments
around
real
and
perceived
transit
safety
and
security
issues,
support
for
free
and
reduced
transit
fares,
a
lot
of
support
for
our
mobility
hubs,
work,
car
sharing,
shared
mobility
and
prioritizing
those
shared
vehicles.
M
There
was
a
lot
of
support
looking
at
trying
to
reduce
impacts
of
large
vehicles
within
the
city,
particularly
on
our
modal
priority
networks,
desire
to
see
changes
in
our
four
lane,
undivided
streets
and
also
influencing
the
design
and
operations
of
cities
are
sorry
streets
within
the
city
that
are
not
owned
by
the
city,
but
county
and
state-owned
streets
and
a
real
desire
to
continue
prioritizing
space
for
walking,
biking
and
transit,
as
well
as
for
safety
and
then
for
different
treatments.
That
would
advance
our
climate
goals
next
slide.
M
I've
summarized
the
main
points
of
those
different
campaigns
here:
sierra
club
pushing
to
look
for
carbon
neutrality
by
2050,
talking
again
to
the
county
and
state
streets,
supportive
of
our
transit
actions,
but
pushing
for
five
minute
wait
times
for
high
frequency,
as
opposed
to
10
in
the
plan,
support
for
the
mode
shift
goal
and
encouraging
going
farther
prioritizing
winter
maintenance
and
clearing
the
pedestrian
priority
network
support
again
for
that
all
ages
and
abilities
network
quickly,
a
piece
on
salt
usage
and
ensuring
we're
following
best
practices
and
minimizing
salt
usage
as
possible
support
for
our
walking
actions,
and
then
the
r
streets
email
campaign
focused
on
taking
enforcement
out
of
the
plan
and
using
design
to
achieve
the
safety
measures
that
we
are
looking
for
within
the
plan.
M
If
you
can
forward
the
slide,
please,
in
august,
we
held
nine
different
community
conversations
with
different
organizations
that
represent
our
work
with
bipod
communities
in
minneapolis,
and
I
want
to
note
that
this
was
staff
driven
and
really
reflects
a
deep
commitment
by
our
team
to
look
deep
at
what
we
were
doing
and
ensure
that
what
we
had
in
our
plan
was
both
reflective
of
things
that
we
were
hearing
in
the
community
and
again
kind
of
putting
forth
actions
and
strategies
that
did
the
most
within
our
transportation
network,
to
advance
equity
for
all
people
and
equitable
outcomes.
M
So
we're
able
to
leverage
our
partnership
or
with
our
american
cities,
climate
challenge
and
partner,
with
staff
at
nelson
nygard,
who
are
national
experts
in
transportation,
equity
to
kind
of
help
us
develop
and
craft.
This
engagement
and
some
of
the
review
of
our
work,
and
so
we,
we
talked
through
two
different
questions
in
these
conversations,
and
one
was
what
does
racial
equity
and
transportation
mean
to
you
or
your
organization?
M
Major
themes
we
heard
from
there
were
around
frequent,
reliable,
convenient
transit,
lower
fares
or
free
transit
solutions
for
the
unbanked
customers
when
it
comes
to
transit,
a
transportation
system
where
users
feel
safe
access
to
jobs
and
housing,
and
then
noting
those
high
costs
of
sorry
car
ownership
and
looking
for
ways
to
reduce
that
the
second.
M
So
these
conversations
really
helped
influence
some
of
the
changes
as
well
in
our
plan,
in
particular
in
our
progress
section,
which
I'll
share
and
a
summary
of
these
conversations,
can
also
be
found
online
next
slide.
Please
I
just
want
to
be
put
put
the
slide
up
here
in
transparency
and
some
of
the
larger
asks
that
were
not
adjusted
through
our
actions
and
just
explain
how
we
did
address
them,
so
carbon
neutrality
by
2050.
Right
now,
we
are
following
the
climate
action
plan
in
minneapolis
2040
80
reduction
by
2050.
M
We
know
in
the
narrative
that
we
will
certainly
follow
other
city
policies
around
that,
and
we
anticipate
that
this
will.
Our
goals
will
come
closer
to
this
as
time
moves
on
the
five-minute
high
frequency
transit
goal
again
in
the
narrative
talk
to
how
we
are
aiming
to
get
there
and
a
realistic
10-year
vision
of
getting
to
a
10-minute
high-frequency
transit
goal
was
felt
adequate.
At
this
point
related
to
enforcement.
M
We
did
add
an
action,
a
couple
actions
talking
to
our
winter
maintenance,
the
study
of
winter
maintenance
for
pedestrians
and
bicyclists
and
redoing
that
on
a
two-year
cycle
and
looking
in
particular,
at
evaluating
city-led
stone,
ice
removal,
but
we
did
not
commit
to
it
and
then
adding
all
schools
as
connections
on
our
aaa
network
and
our
pedestrian
priority
network.
We
added
some
to
the
methodology
about
how
those
were
a
crucial
part
of
how
we
developed
those
networks
and
the
connections.
M
There
are
along
largely
residential
streets
between
schools
and
those
networks
and
then,
finally,
we
did
not
increase
our
mode
shift
goal
to
more
than
three
or
five
trips
taken
by
non-motorized
means,
but
appreciated
the
sentiment
from
the
comments
and
are
excited
to
get
to
three
by
three
out
of
five
within
10
years.
Next
slide,
please
to
get
into
some
of
the
changes
to
the
plan.
M
Next
slide,
please,
as
director
hutchinson
mentioned
in
her
opening
remarks,
we
added
to
our
equity
goal
and
really
articulated
that
we
acknowledge
and
reverse
historic
inequities
in
our
transportation
system
as
a
goal
of
all
the
work
that
we
do
next
slide,
please
we
did
not
eliminate
any
actions
from
our
review
and
update
between
the
draft
and
final
or
anticipated
final.
We
did
add
a
strategy
within
our
walking
topic
area
to
expand,
walking
education
and
encouragement.
M
This
is
a
partner
to
what
is
in
our
bicycle
topic
area
and
we
added
23
new
actions
across
all
the
topic
areas
and
again
in
that
red
line
version
online
you'll.
It
points
out
where
those
new
actions
live
within
the
document
next
slide,
please,
we
clarified
other
actions
added
details
to
articulate
other
streets
say
on
a
transit
action,
so
there's
a
there's.
A
number
of
different
changes
throughout
that
also
reflect
all
the
public
comment
that
we
heard
to
date.
M
There's
some
changing
from
support
of
to
do
within
our
actions
more
appropriate
that
something
maybe
we
had
identified
incorrectly
or
from
a
partner
agency
feedback.
Similarly,
changing
occasionally
the
level
of
difficulty
or
the
supporting
goals
and,
in
particular,
with
the
goals
linking
back
better
to
our
equity
and
climate
goals.
Next
slide,
please.
M
This
is
one
of
the
bigger
changes
from
what
you
saw
in
march.
In
our
progress
section,
we
added
three
new
strategies,
and
we
really
did
this
again,
reflecting
that
internal
looking
and
external
communication
and
the
public
feedback.
We
heard
in
this
moment
in
time
in
minneapolis
about
how
we
are
intentionally
addressing
racial
equity
and
racial
justice
within
the
plan.
M
So
there
are
three
strategies:
one
is
on:
creating
and
implementing
a
racial
equity
framework
for
transportation,
which
would
build
off
the
work
of
the
strategic
racial
equity
action
plan,
as
well
as
the
work
of
the
20-year
streets
funding
plan.
The
second
is
around
engagement
and
stated
here
building
trust
and
achieving
greater
outcomes
through
equitable
engagement.
M
Please,
there
were
detailed
changes
to
our
pedestrian
priority
network,
our
all
ages
and
abilities
network
and
our
transit
priority
project
map,
reflecting
our
partner
agency
comments,
public
comment,
and
so
I
think
that
we'll
find
these
new,
updated
networks
really
reflect
a
lot
of
what
we
heard
and
not
major
additions,
no
huge
new
corridors,
but
more
tweaks
to
kind
of
fill
in
gaps
or
connect
over
better
to
bridges
over
highways
that
type
of
thing
and
the
transit
priority
project
was
looking
at
adding
at
glenwood
and
that
could
have
been
viewed
as
a
technical
mistake
on
our
end,
there's
also
been
a
lot
changing
in
that
corridor
with
botano
and
the
sea
lion
and
whether
that
stays
in
also
memorial
or
glenwood.
M
Next
slide:
please,
there
are
new
narratives
woven
throughout
the
transportation
action
plan,
focused
on
really
strengthening
those
ties
between
our
work
and
being
more
intentional
and
how
that
relates
to
racial
justice,
equity,
climate
goals
and
in
particular
the
forward
is
a
new
piece
which
is
a
few
pages
long
and
talks
through
kind
of
where
we
are
right
now
and
what
we
did
over
the
summer
and
how
changes
in
the
plan
reflect
this,
where
minneapolis
is
right
now
and
where
we
hope
to
take
that
energy
through
our
transportation
work
and
reach
our
goals.
M
Next
slide,
please,
as
director
hutchinson
noted
as
well,
we
have
added
timelines
for
all
of
our
action
items
and
many
of
those
are
noted
as
ongoing,
noting
either
a
change
in
direction
or
something
we
will
continually
do
over
time.
Next
slide,
please
and
last
next
slide.
Please
three
of
the
major
initial
pieces
of
work
that
we're
doing
out
of
this
transportation
action
plan
we've
been
simultaneously
working
on
as
well
the
first
to
update
our
city's
complete
streets
policy,
which
is
the
first
strategy
in
our
street
operations
topic.
M
We
are
actively
working
on
right
now
and
we
anticipate
an
early
2021
update
to
that
policy.
M
We
also
call
out,
in
the
transportation
action
plan
to
adopt
a
strong
curbside
management
policy.
We
have
been
internally
doing
workshops
cross-departmental
even
workshops
on
on
this,
and
we
will
be
anticipating
a
policy
or
draft
policy
in
the
middle
of
2021
and
finally,
the
street
design
guide,
which
will
replace
our
street
and
sidewalk
design
guidelines
from
access
minneapolis.
M
We
are
anticipating
bringing
that
through
as
a
receive
and
file
in
january
of
next
year,
and
that
will
really
serve
as
a
huge
companion
piece
to
the
transportation
action
plan
in
terms
of
how
our
streets
look
and
feel
and
are
experienced
as
we
continue
to
make
investments
and
changes
throughout
our
streets.
M
That
next
slide.
Please
that's
excuse
me.
That's
the
end
here,
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions
on
changes
or
overall
transportation
action
plan.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
B
Any
questions
for
staff
for
the.
B
Presentation
councilmember
johnson,
is
that
you
or
is
that
from
before.
G
No,
that's
me,
mr
chair,
so
thank
you.
Yes,
I
appreciate
the
presentation.
Thank
you
for
your
work
on
this.
I'm
curious.
If
you
could
speak
to
the
questions
around
really
parking
and
how
that
plays
in
here,
obviously,
we
have
a
whole
parking
division
within
public
works.
G
I
don't
think
parking
was
necessarily
all
that
reflected
in
the
transportation
action
plan,
so
I'm
curious
around
that
and
kind
of
the
thinking
there
and
then
as
well
any
room
for
strategy
around
car
free
streets
and
then
I'll
just
note
that
I
saw
council
member
gordon
has
a
motion
I'll
be
putting
one
in
the
chat
as
well.
M
I
M
So
we
did
hear
some
comments,
certainly
around
parking
and
in
particular
the
downtown
area
and
the
relationships
with
our
modeshare
goal,
and
so
we've
added
that
action
in
in
terms
of
parking.
M
We
also
a
lot
of
the
work
of
our
curbside
management
policy
and
our
strategy
around
curbside
management
addresses
how
that
space
is
used,
and
so
it's
not
as
well
as
our
complete
streets
policy.
So
it's
more
I'd,
say
holistically
throughout
the
plan.
M
Parking
is
a
part
of
the
puzzle,
and
so
there's
not
a
lot
of
specific
actions
called
out
around
parking
in
particular.
But
how
do
we
best
utilize,
our
curb
to
reach
our
overall
city
goals
and
mulch
your
goal
and
climate
and
equity
goals
and
safety
goals?
So
it's
a
bit
more
integrated,
but
there
is
that
one
new
action
to
call
out
and
then
the
second
part
of
your
question.
G
Oh,
maybe
I'll
just
quickly
interrupt
you
there
and
what
I'm
thinking
of
this
as
well,
I'm
thinking
of
parking
ramps,
these
really
large
assets
that
we
have
not
just
curbside
but
specifically
around
that
and
just
our
continued
investment
and
more
long-term
thinking.
Since
this
is
a
10-year
plan
around
that
and
just
need
comments
on.
That
would
be
helpful.
M
Well,
I
think,
thank
you,
councilmember
johnson,
for
the
clarification
I
think
the
new
action
that
we
did
add
is
about
those
off
street
parking
ramps
and
lots,
noting
that
we
are
partnering
with
others
that
they
are
both
ours
as
well,
as
you
know,
privately
owned
facilities,
and
that
we
know
within
that
action
that
we
are
partnering
in
how
we
manage
those
parking
places,
spaces
and
structures
to
reach
city
policies,
including
reducing
our
single
occupancy
vehicle
trips.
So
that's
where
that's
kind
of
as
far
as
that
action
got
within
the
plan.
F
Mr
chair
councilmember
johnson,
as
this
is
related
very
closely
to
work,
that's
done
out
of
the
traffic
and
parking
services
division.
I
will
provide
some
additional
context.
F
F
M
If
I
may,
council
member
johnson
committee
chair,
we
also
have
a
action
in
our
street
operations,
5.5
which
looks
to
employ
on-street
and
off-street
parking
strategies
to
support
transit
corridors.
So
there's
a
number
of
examples.
We
list
there
so
one
other
area
where
we
do
address
the
parking
as
well.
B
G
Certainly,
mr
chair,
and
then
I
guess
my
you
know,
I
don't
know
if
it
was
touched
on
by
staff,
but
the
question
around
car
free
streets
and
be
more
prominent
with.
That
would
be
helpful
if
I
could
just
get
some
thoughts
on
that.
But
absolutely
mr
chair,
I
worked
with
staff
on
this
amendment
and
I'm
happy
to
have
it
taken
up
at
the
end
after
questions
and
comments.
M
Thank
you,
councilmember
johnson,
for
the
reminder
of
that
additional
question.
We
did
amend
our
car
free
streets
action
and
I'm
so
before
we
had
an
action
under
design
2.5
that
said,
explore
opportunities
for
car
free
streets.
We
have
amended
that
to
say,
explore
opportunities
for
car
free
streets,
implement
pilots
and
make
permanent
improvements,
so
adding
a
bit
more
directness.
I
guess
I'll
say
rather
than
just
explore,
that
we
explore
with
the
intention
of
piloting-
and
you
know,
assuming
what
we
learned
from
the
pilots
to
make
improvements
permanent
improvements.
M
So
that
is
the
the
major
place
where
we
address
car
free
streets
within
the
plan.
There
is
also
the
neighborhood
greenway
concept
in
the
plan,
which
could
take
a
variety
of
different
forms
and
we'll
be
further
detailed
in
our
street
design
guide,
but
in
terms
of
potential
of
coffee
streets.
That's
how
that
was
addressed
within
the
plan.
B
Thank
you,
council
member
fletcher,.
N
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
just
want
to
really
appreciate
the
really
high
quality
of
work
that
we
just
had
presented
to
us
and
offer
my
gratitude
to
all
of
the
staff
that
worked
on
this
and
to
all
of
the
constituents
who
took
time
to
comment
on
this.
I
can
see
my
constituents
comments
that
came
through
my
office,
reflected
in
this
document
and
some
really
exciting
ways.
N
I
think
we
see
modifications
that
include
renewed
focus
on
pedestrian
scale,
lighting,
renewed
focus
on
pedestrian
safety
in
freight
corridors,
all
kinds
of
the
the
conversations
that
we've
been
having
around
how
to
you
know
improve
the
experience,
especially
for
pedestrians
in
ward.
Three,
I
think
is,
is
really
reflected
here
and
I'm
excited
about
that.
N
There's,
certainly
a
few
things
that
I
think
leave
us
with
continued
work
to
do
as
a
council
and
as
a
city
I
know,
council,
member
gordon,
is
is
working
on
something
around
sidewalk
clearance
and
and
winter
maintenance.
That,
I
think,
is
an
important
issue.
That's
something
that
many
many
people
have
raised
and
that
I
want
to
continue
to
raise.
N
I
think
we
didn't
make
as
much
of
a
reflection
about
pedestrian
seating
throughout
the
city,
which
is
one
of
the
things
that
I
heard
from
a
lot
of
people
is
that
if
we're
gonna
walk
around
and
we're
gonna
get
around,
you
know
in
a
variety
of
ways.
We
need
places
to
sit
along
the
way
and
to
rest
and
to
take
a
break
and
that's
part
of
what
enables
that.
N
But
we
are
seeing
that
piloted
in
the
mobility
projects
and
some
of
the
other
things
where
we're
starting
to
see
these
things
come
in
whether
they're
they're,
you
know
reflected
precisely
in
the
plan
or
not,
and
so
I,
I
think,
there's
tremendous
creative
work
happening
in
this
department.
N
I'm
really
grateful
to
the
staff
who
are
working
on
it,
I'm
not
bringing
forward
any
amendments,
because
I
really
see
our
work
going
back
to
gosh
like
a
year
and
a
half
ago
at
a
very
snowy
meeting,
where
we
had
our
first
award
three
meeting
about
this
in
phase
one,
and
I
just
really
appreciate
getting
a
chance
to
vote
for
a
plan
that
I
think
will
make
significant
improvements
for
our
city.
So,
thank
you
all
for
your
work.
O
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
Like
councilmember
fletcher,
I
really
just
wanted
to
share
my
appreciation
and
enthusiasm
for
the
transportation
action
plan.
Together
with
chair
reich,
I
was
able
to
serve
on
the
advisory
committee
and
have
seen
a
lot
of
this
work
evolve
over
time.
O
You
know,
as
director
hutchinson
reflected,
I
think,
the
really
enormous
input
and
effort
from
our
staff
in
public
works
and
in
and
departments
across
the
enterprise.
I
think,
really
set
us
up
so
well
for
being
ready
to
implement
the
action
steps
in
this
plan.
O
You
know
when
I
think
about
our
city
and
how
we
move
forward
now
with
so
much
you
know
so
many
challenges
I
think
of
the
the
opportunities
that
we
have
to
do
more
with
what
we
already
invest
in
our
community
and
our
transportation
system.
Our
street
network
is
one
of
those
things
where
I
think,
with
this
plan,
we're
really
building
on
work
to
use
resources
really
strategically
to
really
center
our
city's
goals
and
values
to
shape
that
funding
we're
one
of
the
city.
O
First
cities
in
the
country,
if
not
the
first,
to
use
a
race
equity
lens
to
program
our
capital
infrastructure
dollars
and
that
that
means
a
lot.
It
means
that
we're
not
just
continuing
to
put
money
into
the
same
places
that
are
already
already
have.
A
lot
of
destinations
already
have
a
lot
of
foot
traffic
and
car
traffic
and
transit
service,
but
that
we're
really
focusing
our
efforts
to
invest
in
places
where
access
to
jobs
and
schools
and
recreation
is
critically
important
for
our
race
equity
goals.
O
So
I
am
really
excited
about
how
specific
this
plan
is
in
the
action
steps
required
to
meet
those
race,
equity
and
climate
change
goals.
How
much
breadth
of
staff
expertise
has
gone
into
this
so
that
we're
ready
to
go
from
day.
One
implementing
this
plan
through
everything,
our
public
works
and
capital
budget
does,
and
then
I
think.
Finally,
the
thing
that
I
am
really
thrilled
to
see
us
do
as
a
city
is
really
step
up
and
put
forward
our
own
city-focused
transit
network
plan.
O
Of
course,
transit
is
a
regional
system.
We
rely
a
lot
on
partnerships
with
other
communities
with
our
counties
within
the
region,
with
the
metropolitan
council
metro
transit
with
our
legislative
leaders
across
the
state
to
invest
in
our
transportation
transit
system,
but
having
our
own
transit
plan.
That
really
reflects
those
particularly
race,
equity
and
access
goals.
O
That
we
have
is
a
really
important
thing
for
our
city
and
our
community
to
be
able
to
advocate
for
those
priorities
to
be
met
instead
of
reacting
to
regional
priorities,
which
don't
always
line
up
with,
what's
best
for
access
and
mobility
for
folks
who
live
within
minneapolis.
So
there's
a
lot
of
very
specific
things
I
could
say
but
wanted
to
highlight
those
pieces
today
and
thank
you,
mr
chair
and
the
director
and
all
my
colleagues
who've
contributed
to
this.
This
is
a
really
forward-looking
plan.
This
is
something
to
be
really
proud
of.
O
It
takes,
I
think,
the
best
ideas
from
here
in
our
community
and
builds
off
of
work.
That's
been
happening
for
a
long
time,
so
I
think
it's
you
know
it
really.
It's
really
the
the
culmination
of
many
many
years
of
work
from
folks
in
our
community
brought
forward
by
staff.
So
I'm
really
excited
and
thankful.
B
Thank
you
for
those
comments,
any
other
comments
or
questions
before
we
go
into
consideration
of
amendments
from
our
colleagues,
not
seeing
any
and
seeing
a
very
eager
council
member
gordon.
B
Maybe
you
can
have
the
floor
and
talk
about
the
amendment,
the
language
of
which
I
think,
we've
all
reviewed
and
and
look
forward
to
your
discussion.
I.
H
Appreciate
that,
but
at
first
I
want
to
be
clear,
my
eagerness
has
to
do
with
how
excited
and
enthusiastic
I
am
about
this
plan.
In
general,
I
was
looking
at
it
and
reading
through
it
and
thinking
back
to
where
we
were
when
I
first
took
office
in
2006
kind
of
as
some
starry-eyed
green
party
person
thinking
that
we
should
have
protected
bikeways
everywhere
and
I'm
amazed.
H
I
think
that
the
city
has
come
a
long
way
since
then,
and
I
mean
all
the
people
of
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
our
expectations
and
what
we
want
to
see
our
transportation
system
do
for
us
and
with
us,
and
I
think
that
this
plan
really
reflects
that.
There's
some
things
here
that
I
have
to
look
at
twice
and
and
when
I
read
the
section
about
how
we
are
going
to
identify
opportunities
and
partnerships
to
design
fund
and
construct
lids
over
highways
to
reconnect
neighborhoods.
H
I
am
thoroughly
excited
and
and
thrilled
to
see
that
and
but
also
sometimes
makes
me
wonder
if
I'm
not
dreaming,
but
I'm
not.
I
mean
this
is
real
and
that's
just
an
example
of
things
that
I
think
people
can
hook
on
to
and
can
see
in
this
plan
that
they
might
want
to
build
on.
We
also
say
we
want
a
new
river
crossing
for
the
midtown
greenway
and
great
northern
greenways.
H
That
is,
I
think,
what
people
are
wanting.
If
we
set
our
mind
on
these,
we
can
accomplish
them.
I
really
encourage
people
throughout
the
city
to
look
at
this
plan.
There
are
so
many
concrete
ideas
and
steps
tied
so
clearly
to
such
worthy
goals
and
outcomes
focusing
on
climate
change,
equity
and
safety,
which
I
think
everybody
wants
to
see,
and
and
here
we
are
prioritizing
those
things
in
our
transportation
action
plan.
H
I
think
it's
it's
so
massive
and
detailed
it's
going
to
be
hard
to
accomplish
unless
we
have
enthusiastic
support
and
groups
and
people
throughout
the
city
willing
to
champion
those
things
that
they
really
want
to
see
take
place.
You
know-
and
I
don't
even
want
to
diminish
the
reopening
nicholas
avenue
at
lake
street
is
another
one,
that's
there,
which
has
been
a
long
time
in
coming
and
hopefully
an
accomplishment
that
we
can
attain.
H
It's
almost
a
peeve
more
than
a
really
big
ginormous
concern,
if
that's
a
real
word,
and
it
has
to
do
with
one
of
the
and
I'll
just
go
back
so
that
I
can
read
it.
It
has
to
do
with
one
of
the
action
steps
and
this
actually
was
grown
from
lots
of
conversation
that
we've
had
about
winter
snow
clearance
in
this
committee
ourselves
and
also
out
in
the
community,
and
one
thing
that
I
noticed
was
missing-
was
us
calling
out
working
on
a
pedestrian
priority
network,
and
so
I
want
to
add
a
section.
H
It's
it's
not
a
full
sentence.
It's
a
clause
to
action,
4.10
of
the
transportation
action
plan,
which
says
we
will
conduct
review
of
pedestrian
and
bicycle
winter,
maintenance
study
on
a
biennial
basis
to
evaluate
and
suggest
changes
to
city-led
snow
and
ice
clearing,
and
I
want
to
add
this,
as
you
can
see
on
your
screen,
that
will
include
the
clause,
including
evaluating
city-led,
clearing
of
snow
and
ice
on
the
pedestrian
priority
network.
H
I
had
the
opportunity
to
be
influenced
effectively
by
our
city
staff,
who
have
worked
most
closely
on
the
action
plan
and
I
believe
that
this
language
is
acceptable
and
in
keeping
with
what
we
want
to
accomplish
anyway.
But
I
also
think
it
might
help
to
push
us
a
little
further
and
reassure
our
community
that
we
still
are
going
to
be
working
hard
to
figure
out
how
we
can
make
sure
that
our
sidewalks
are
more
accessible
to
everybody
all
year
long.
H
B
I
don't
see
any,
but
I
will
comment
that
yeah
appreciate
the
the
work
that
you
did
to
highlight
this.
I
think
it's
reflective
of
the
attention
put
on
this
sub
sub
category
of
a
larger
plan
and
yeah
any
further
discussion.
If
not
if
the
clerk
will
call
the
role
on
this
amendment.
B
And
with
that,
I
will
now
go
to
council
member
johnson,
who
also
has
an
amendment
and
language
before
us.
G
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
we'll
see
if
the
language
is
put
on
the
screen.
I
know
I
put
in
the
chat
a
minute
ago.
Let
me
get
my
camera
on
here.
G
Sorry,
moving
around
my
background,
so
this
might
not
look
as
is
good
me
on
the
screen,
as
it
did
before.
It's
the
recreational
hazard
now
of
working
remotely
with
a
child
at
home,
anyways,
I'm
bringing
forward
this
a
moment.
I'd
like
to
move
this
just
in
discussing
around
the
ada
transition
plan.
I
know
it
is
mentioned
in
the
document
in
the
transportation
action
plan
and
it
references.
The
ada
transition
plan
is
a
living
document,
but
we
would
like
to
see
a
little
more
frequent
review
and
evaluation
of
this.
G
I
know
that's
consistent
with
comments
that
have
been
made
by
this
committee
when
we're
viewing
that
ada
transition
plan,
and
so
in
that
spirit,
working
with
staff,
I'm
bringing
forward
this
language,
which
I
think
will
get
at
the
spirit
of
that
of
just
having
a
little
more
frequent
evaluation
of
the
progress
and
consideration
of
the
ada
transition
plan
and
any
updates
to
improve
compliance
and
so
happy
to
move
that
and
then
actually
after
we
vote
on
it.
B
G
I
C
B
Very
good,
I
don't
I'm
not
aware
of
any
other
additional
comments
or
adjustments
to
the
overall
plan.
Oh
council,
member
johnson,
are
you
in
queue
again.
G
Yeah.
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
I
just
had
a
question
and
then
a
comment.
Just
a
clarifying
question
for
staff
under
the
51
miles
of
neighborhood
greenways
is
the
intent
for
that
to
be
full.
Greenways
is
in
very
park-like
greenways
without
motor
vehicles
on
them.
M
Thank
you,
councilmember
johnson,
for
the
question
chair
reich
the
intent.
No,
it's
not
specifically
that
they're
car
free
greenways,
the
greenways
is,
could
look
like
a
reduced
space
for
vehicular
car
traffic
and
increase
space
like
so.
It
could
have
some
park
like
elements,
but
that
those
design
details
will
one
be
further
articulated
in
the
street
design
guide
and
will
also
be
us
through.
M
The
engagement
we
do
on
a
capital
project
would
be
developed
with
the
community
in
terms
of
what
best
fits,
but
the
idea
is
that
there's
a
spirit
of
a
greenway
within
those
51
miles,
meaning
you
know
a
comfortable
place
where
it's
very
low
stress
for
people
to
bike
and
walk
throughout
the
community
and
something
different
than
what
we
have
seen
to
date
in
terms
of
how
our
streets
are
have
been
constructed.
G
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
clarification
and
personally
I'm
interested
in
seeing
us
get
to
full
greenways
as
quickly
as
possible,
or
you
know
as
many
of
them,
because
they're
such
tremendous
assets
and
then
finally,
mr
chair,
just
a
comment
on
this.
I
want
to
echo
colleagues
who've
said
that
there's
just
so
many
great
elements
to
this.
I
really
appreciate
all
the
work
that
has
gone
into
this.
I
will
note
you
know
I
was
briefed
on
it.
I
think
this
week.
G
I
know
it
posted
out
on
the
city
website
as
well
just
the
other
day,
and
so
for
those
that
are
watching
and
following
this,
if
you
feel
like
hey,
we
haven't
had
a
ton
of
time
to
react
yet
to
it.
G
I'm
just
going
to
throw
this
out
there
that
you
know
we
have
a
ward
week
next
week
for
thanksgiving
and
then
we'll
have
this
up
at
the
full
council
on
the
fourth,
and
so
you
know,
as
people
are
looking
at
this,
if
they
do
see
any
other
opportunities
around
areas
where
little
tweaks
could
get
it
to
an
even
better
place.
Please
let
us
know,
as
your
council
members
I
think,
that's
you
know
what
we're.
G
What
we're
here
to
do
is
to
listen
to
that
feedback
and
consider
it
in
the
context
of
this
plan
and
again
it's
got
a
lot
of
great
stuff
in
it
and
I
really
appreciate
all
the
work
in
it
and
we'll
continue
to
consider
if
there
are
any
other
tweaks
or
opportunities
in
between
now
in
that
full
council
meeting.
So
thank
you
for
everybody
for
all
your
work
and
involvement
in
this.
B
Very
good
points,
and
also
certain
deeper
work
that
we
can
anticipate
in
the
subsequent
supporting
plans,
as
staff
is
described
in
terms
of
curbside
management,
complete
streets,
etc.
So
ongoing
opportunity,
so
point
well
made
councilmember
johnson,
any
other
commentary
and
seeing
none.
I
will
just
make
a
a
comment.
So
much
has
been
said
that
I
completely
concur
with
from
my
colleagues,
I
would
say
the
broader
description
in
the
preamble
by
the
director
hutchinson.
I
think,
really
sets
the
tone
for
for
what
this
this
plan
is.
B
It's
certainly
beyond
just
a
an
action
plan
that
discusses
multi-modal
project
priorities.
It
just
goes
beyond
that.
You,
I
think
councilmember
gordon
said
said
it
correctly.
This
is
a
ginormous
plan
with
with
large
goals,
I'm
not
sure.
If
ginormous
the
portmanteau
has
been
accepted
by
the
oed,
but
it
certainly
does
capture,
I
think
the
breadth
of
what
we
have
before
us
and
the
importance
of
it
as
council
president
bender
really
dug
into
what
this
means
for
our
community
beyond
just
its
technical
topic
area.
B
B
This
is
how
we'll
deliver
many
of
our
goals
that
will
be
materially
felt
in
terms
of
equity
in
our
focus
and
communities
where
we
should
be
focusing
the
directional
dui
policies
and
how
they'll
be
met,
invisible
in
real
ways,
life-changing
ways
if
done
completely
and
moving
forward.
I
just
can't
underestimate
that,
and
I
would
even
add
on
one
other
thing
and
highlight
this-
isn't
just
again
a
plan
for
how
we
move
around
as
a
city,
and
it
certainly
supports
environment
and
equity.
B
This
really
sets
forth
that
our
open
spaces,
of
which
director
hutchinson
has
reminded
us,
is
almost
a
quarter
of
the
whole
city's
built
form.
This
is
who
we
will
be
as
a
city.
This
is
our
community.
These
are
our
common
areas
that
which
is
most
public
and
therefore
most
reflective
of
what
makes
minneapolis
minneapolis,
and
I
think
what
we
do
it
right,
and
we
realize
many
of
these
goals.
It
will
reflect
most
directly
on
who
we
are
as
a
city
in
ways
that
I
think
it's
hard
for
anything.
B
A
municipality
has
its
power
to
do
to
make
visible
and
real
in
people's
lives.
This
is
this
is
that
road
map-
and
I
also
comment
that
this
is-
has
a
lot
of
reach
element.
Council
president
bender
rightly
said
this
is
a
very
forward-looking
plan,
however,
forward,
looking
as
it
is,
and
how
strong
the
reach
elements
of
the
goals
are,
it's
still
the
plan
of
expectations
to
deliver
and
I
think,
that's
very
reflective
of
the
values
of
the
leadership
of
the
department,
the
people
who
work
to
implement
within
the
department.
B
They
don't
want
to
have
plans
that
they
can't
deliver.
They
see
a
plan,
they
want
to
deliver
it
and
I
think
the
decade
moving
forward
will
be
about
a
story
of
delivering
on
this
plan
as
aggressive
as
it
is.
So
with
that
I
believe
we
have
before
us.
I
will
move
a
motion
to
approve
the
transit
action
plan
for
full
council
consideration.
B
Any
further
discussion
from
the
committee.
If
not,
I
would
have
the
clerk
confirm,
approval
and
advancement
to
poor
council.
H
O
C
B
That
carries,
and
that
concludes
the
business
that
we
had
before
us
today
and
if
there's
no
objection,
we
will
be
adjourned.
Thank
you.
