We
can
now
go

the
public

starting
with
public
hearing
number
one
good
morning,
director
Hutchinson
good.
B
Morning
mr.
chair
members
of
the
Transportation
and
Public
Works
Committee,
we
have
three
public
hearings
today.
The
first
is
fell'd
is
for
the
fuller
south
residential
street
resurfacing
project.
This
is
for
approval
and
assessment.
Information
will
be
presented
by
Larry
Matsumoto
with
the
transportation
and
maintenance
and
repair
group.
C
C
Fuller,
south
residential
is
bounded
by
50th
Street
West
on
the
north
Stevenson
interstate
35w,
on
the
east-west
Minnehaha
Parkway
on
the
south
and
lyndale
avenues
on
the
west.
These
streets
in
the
fuller
south
are
both
our
local
city
streets
and
were
reconstructed
in
1969
and
have
a
current
PCI
of
49.
The
total
project
cost
is
seven
hundred
and
twenty
eight
thousand
fifty
eight
dollars
and
the
project's
length
of
length
is
three
point:
six
miles
of
streets.
C
The
project
scope
is
a
2.0
inch
mill
and
overlay
with
mill
and
overlay,
with
a

select,
curb
and
gutter
replacement.
Public
Works
hosted
a
community
meeting
on
March,
2nd
at
the
full
of
recreation
center
with
317
invitations,
and
a
total
of
14
at
attendees
came
to
the
meeting.
The
proposed
street
resurfacing.
Special
assessments
were
determined
by
applying
that
2020
uniform
assessment
rates
to
the
land
area,
the
benefit
of
parcels
located
within
the
street
influence
zone
along
with
the
improved
streets.
These
assessments
are
not
calculated
based
on
the
project
cost
alone.
C
The
city
uses
a
formula
that
combines
the
influence
area
with
the
annually
established
uniform
assessment
rate.
This
farm
is
carefully
considered
and
applied
by
city
staff,
and
it
has
intended
to
account
for
and
reflect
each
project
value
to
the
benefited
properties.
The
City
Council
has
passed
resolutions
whereby
deferment
of
special
assessments
may
be
obtained
by
showing
hardship
before
any
homestead
property
owner
by
a
persons
of
65
years
of
age
or
older
or
retired,
or
by
a
permanent
and
total
disability.

Any

say:
aye

a
name

carries
and
we

hearing
number
three.
B
E
Morning,
good
morning,
mr.
chair
and
members
of
the
committee,
my
name
is
Adam
heyo
I'm,
a
professional
engineer
with
our
transportation
engineering
design,
division
public
works
today,
I'm
here
presenting
for
the
public
hearing
for
their
area
area
way,
abandonment
and
removal
for
the
mid-city
industrial
reconstruction
project.
City
project
number
two
to
nine
two.
E
During
design,
the
city
found
an
area
way
exists
existing
within
city
right
away
along
Kennedy,
Street,
northeast
west
of
Stinson
Boulevard.
An
airy
way
is
a
below
ground
extension
of
the
building
into
Cydia
right
away.
In
this
case,
the
area
was
abandoned
tunnel
that
ran
underneath
Kennedy
Street
northeast
connecting
three
a
Jason
properties.
E
The
addresses
of
those
properties
are
two
three
zero:
three
Kennedy
Street
northeast
two
three,
three
zero
Kennedy
Street
northeast
and
finally,
two
three
four
five
Kennedy
Street
northeast
the
area
way
was
in
conflict
with
the
City
Street
reconstruction
project
and
needed
to
be
removed.
The
three
affecting
property
owners
were
provided
an
opportunity
to
self
perform.
The
area.
Wait:
abandonment,
work
consistent
with
the
process
set
out
in
city
ordinance.
E
The
city
completed
the
removal,
the
area
way
existing
within
City
right
away,
this
past
construction
season
for
a
total
cost
of
one
hundred
and
fifty
five
thousand
dollars
in
nine
one
hundred,
fifty
five
thousand
nine
hundred
twelve
dollars
and
twenty
nine
cents.
Today,
Public
Works
is
accident,
City
Council
to
pass
resolutions
adopting
and
loving
the
special
assessments
and
authorizing
the
sale
of
assessment
bonds
in
the
amount
of
one
hundred
and
fifty
five
thousand
nine
hundred
and
twelve
dollars
and
twenty
nine
cents,
which
is
equal
to
the
city's
costs
of
removing
the
area
away.
E
A
F
Foster
3308
Belden
drives
in
Anthony
Minnesota
I'm,
an
attorney
with
an
office
in
st.
Anthony.
Minnesota
I
represent
one
of
the
three
property
owners.
Hunters
Rock
incorporated
he's
the
owner
of
the
property
at
2303
Kennedy
Street
northeast.
This
is
probably
a
unique
special
assessment
because
I
don't
think
in
the
city
of
Minneapolis,
there's
been
very
many
tunnels
going
under
public
streets,
but
that
that
happens
to
be
what
the
case
is
here.
I
previously
mailed
and
I.
Think
mr.
heigh-ho
would
agree
that
he's
received
my
clients
objection
to
the
special
assessment.
F
This
this
tunnel
is
a
freight
way
that
was
established
by
city
ordinance
in
1920,
and
it
is
now
abandoned.
The
owner
in
1920s
spent
considerable
monies
to
construct
the
tunnel
under
the
ordinance
that
was
passed
in
1920.
The
city
retained
the
right
to
revoke
the
right
for
the
tunnels
to
exist
under
Kennedy
Street
and
frankly,
we
acknowledge
the
right
of
the
city
to
remove
the
tunnel.
F
The
question
before
you
today
is:
who
should
pay
for
that
removal
when
we
had
written
communication
with
Robin
Hennessy,
an
assistant
city
attorney
back
in
nineteen
or
2018?
Regarding
this
process,
miss
Hennessy
was
the
opinion
when
she
argued
in
favor
of
the
city's
right
to
remove
the
tunnel
and
I'll.
Just
read
you
what
she
says
in
her
email
to
mean
that
the
city's
current
Street
reconstruction
project
is
a
public
good
project
and.
B
F
F
In
other
words,
the
the
fair
market
value
did
not
increase
as
a
result
of
this
tunnel
removal
based
on
his
conclusion
in
my
review
of
them.
This
matter,
I,
would
request
of
this
committee
that
the
cost
of
this
project
not
be
assessed
to
the
three
property
owners,
but
instead
be
paid
out
of
general
funds
for
the
project.
A
G
As
he
pointed
out,
the
property
owner
has
preserved
its
right
to
appeal,
and
these
legal
arguments
are
appropriate
for
such
an
appeal,
but
I
will
say
that
this
argument
that
the
special
benefit
test
would
prevent.
This
assessment
is
not
true.
I
absolutely
disagree
with
that
legal
argument
and
again
that's
something
that
can
be
raised
as
part
of
an
appeal.
A
Thank
you
for
the
clarification
any
further
discussion
on
this
matter.
I'm
gonna
move
the
matter
noting
that
rights
to
further
dispute
will
proceed
if
sole
elected
by
the
property
owners,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
does
NT
name.
That
item
carries
and
we
have
dispensed
with
our
public
hearings
and
can
go
to
potentially
the
highlight
of
the
meeting.
The
update
on
this
very
important
document
director
Hutchinson.
B
Mr.
chair
members
of
the
committee,
this
is
one
of
many
highlights
of
today's
meeting
in
our
overall
public
works
business,
but
I
am
very
very
pleased
to
introduce
this
item.
It
is
a
discussion
item
and
it
is
a
much-anticipated
presentation
of
the
draft
transportation
action
plan,
I'm
just
going
to
say
a
couple
of
things
before
I
turn
it
to
Kathleen
may
L,
who
has
been
the
project
manager
for
this
for
the
last
18
months.
This
is.
B
Fast
work
is
not
always
good
work
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
anticipation
on
the
release
of
this
draft
and
it
did
take
18
months
because
we
did
it
with
great
care
and
with
great
coordination
and
I.
Think
that's
evidenced
here
by
the
members
of
our
transportation
community
and
our
partners
who
have
come
today,
I
didn't
know
they
were
going
to
be
here
and
I'm
so
happy
to
have
them
join
us.
B
So
I'll
just
call
out
that
we
have
members
of
our
pedestrian
Advisory
Committee
of
our
streets,
executive
directors,
here
of
move
Minnesota
of
move
Minneapolis,
our
partner,
the
director
of
Community
Planning
economic
development,
David
Frank,
is
here
his
staff.
It
has
had
such
a
big
hand
in
this
and,
if
I
forgot
anyone,
please
I'm.
Sorry,
just
forgive
me.
It's
wonderful
to
see
you
here
to
support
Kathleen's
presentation.
B
This
plan
is
very
much
in
line
with
how
we
see
our
work
in
serving
the
public.
Our
right-of-way
is
held
in
trust
for
the
public,
how
we
plan
that
and
what
we
do
with
that
is
our
ultimate
leverage
and
creating
common
good
for
the
city
and
to
meet
our
city's
goals,
and
you
will
see
that
thread
through
this
entire
presentation
and
as
well
through
the
entire,
pretty
lengthy
document
that
I
hope
you
will
have
a
chance
to
review
and
comment
on.
B
It
opens
up
the
comment
period
today
and
we're
thrilled
to
make
this
milestone
and
look
forward
very
much
to
the
feedback
that
will
come
on
the
draft.
Without
any
more
comment.
I
will
introduce
Kathleen
mail
Kathleen
is
joined
by
multiple
team
members
here
who
have
been
guiding
contributing
and
I'll,
especially
College.
Any
Hager
director
of
transportation,
planning
and
programming
over
the
last
couple
weeks,
Jenny
and
Kathleen
together
have
spent
a
lot
of
work
time
and
their
own
personal
time
ensuring
that
this
draft
is
ready
for
release.
B
H
H
This
is
what
we'll
cover
today
and
just
to
add
briefly
to
what
director
Hutchinson
said
there
I'm
so
happy
for
all
the
support
around
the
room,
also
happy
for
the
support
of
several
people
who
aren't
in
the
room
right
now
and
in
particular,
just
want
to
call
out
several
folks
within
our
transportation
planning
and
programming
division,
who
led
different
parts
of
this
plan:
Kelsie
foe,
Matthew,
dear
ttle,
Becca,
Hughes,
Jasna,
Hutchins,
ecstatic,
alexander,
Cato,
Katie,
white
and
Ethan
folly.
So
many
thanks
to
them
as
well,
and
Jenny,
Hager
and
director
hutchinson
as
well.
H
This
work
was
guided
by
many
many
people
and,
as
evidenced
in
Appendix
B,
there
were
over
190
people
who
formally
contributed
to
this
plan.
That
includes
work
of
our
partner
agencies.
We
had
a
policy
Advisory
Committee.
We
had
a
steering
committee,
which
was
composed
of
directors
within
public
works
as
well
as
sheephead.
An
interagency
TAC
included
members
of
Hennepin
County
MnDOT,
Minneapolis
Park
and
Recreation
Board
U
of
M
Metro,
Transit
and
Met
Council.
We
also
had
many
working
groups
with
lots
of
interagency
partnership
on
those
as
well
and
numerous
staff
from
throughout
Public
Works.
H
First
and
foremost,
this
plan
is
rooted
in
Minneapolis
2040.
The
comprehensive
plan
defined
what
we
want
to
accomplish
for
transportation
over
the
next
20
years.
The
transportation
action
plan
takes
the
first
10
years
of
that
vision
and
gives
us
a
roadmap
to
say
how
we're
going
to
get
there.
There
were
four
main
themes
within
minneapolis
2040
related
to
transportation.
H
As
director
Hutchinson
mentioned,
our
streets
occupied
22
percent
of
our
land
area
in
the
city,
and
that
is
a
huge
opportunity
for
us
to
use
that
land
to
leverage
greater
outcomes.
We
are
aiming
to
have
streets,
be
places
for
people.
We're
looking
to
leverage
those
to
meet
citywide
goals,
reflect
our
values
and
create
a
more
sustainable,
equitable,
safe
and
prosperous
City.
H
As
I
mentioned,
this
is
a
ten
year
plan.
This
is
not
a
fiscally
constrained
plan.
We
intentionally
did
that
in
order
to
open
up
the
vision
of
what
we
want
to
accomplish
within
our
streets
over
the
next
10
years,
by
doing
so
as
well
and
having
ideas
in
this
plan
that
aren't
yet
adequately
resourced.
It
opens
up
opportunities
to
leverage
partnership
and
additional
opportunities
for
funding
and
resources
to
reach
that
vision.
H
There
are
two
related
planning
efforts
that
have
recently
become
before
you:
our
vision,
zero
action
plan,
which
was
adopted
in
December
and
our
Americans
with
Disabilities
transition
plan,
which
was
adopted
just
last
month
and
I
just
want
to
note
these
two.
A
lot
of
the
engagement
we
held
for
the
transportation
action
plan
was
done
in
conjunction
and
at
the
same
time
as
efforts
for
these
two
plans,
and
we
intentionally
there
was
overlapping
staff
on
both
of
these
plans.
They
were
very
integrated
on
the
backend.
H
We
took
information
that
we
heard
during
public
engagement
and
reflected
it
within
our
strategies
and
actions
in
this
plan
and
to
two
examples.
In
particular,
within
our
walking
section
of
this
plan,
we
have
an
action
to
undertake
a
sidewalk
inventory,
and
that
was
a
major
theme
that
was
brought
up
throughout
our
ad.
A
transition
plan
has
been
important
to
progress
that
work
and
as
well,
there's
an
action
in
our
street
operations
section
here
to
evaluate
all
four
lane
undivided
streets
in
our
city
for
safety.
H
We
also
contracted
with
six
different
neighborhood
and
artist
organizations
which,
in
they
helped
extend
our
reach,
hosted
30
different
events
and
really
broadened
the
depth
of
we
heard
and
who
we
heard
from
within
this
planning
process.
We're
following
today
with
the
mark
of
a
45
day,
public
comment
period,
which
will
be
our
phase
three
and
final
phase
of
engagement
for
this
plan.
This
is
one
example
of
what
we
heard
throughout
engagement
during
phase
two,
so
this
was
just
one
question.
H
So
the
public
comment
period
will
be
open
through
April
22nd
will
host
three
in-person
open
houses
at
the
Central
Library
Reverend,
dr.
Martin,
Luther
King
rec
center,
and
you
rock
will
have
an
online
open
house
on
Facebook
the
city's
Facebook
site.
We
do
have
a
tool
box
available
on
our
website
for
different
community
organizations
if
they
would
like
to
host
meeting
and
submit
feedback
that
way,
and
then
we
will
be
planning
on
bringing
the
plan
back
for
final
adoption
to
the
council
this
summer.
H
This
is
an
example
of
the
online
how
you
can
submit.
We've
got
an
online
interactive
website
where
you
can
scroll
through
everything.
All
the
different
actions
and
strategies
are
up
there.
You
can
comment
right
on
the
particular
action
just
wanted
to
give
an
example
of
what
this
looks
like.
Also,
all
of
our
priority
network
maps
are
up
online
and
you
can
comment
right
on
those
maps
as
well.
So
we
anticipate
we'll
get
a
lot
of
comments
through
this
and
we'll
collect
and
respond
with
the
final
plan.
H
This
work
replaces
access
Minneapolis,
and
this
is
a
broader
scope
of
what
we're
looking
at
compared
to
the
prior
planning
body
of
documents,
so
transit
technology
and
Freight
in
particular
our
new
focus
areas
within
the
transportation
planning
body
of
the
city.
Here,
within
the
plan,
there
are
four
priority
network
maps.
One
is
our
pedestrian
priority
network.
Two
is
our
all
ages
and
abilities
network.
This
is
for
bicyclists
and
other
you
know:
scooters
and
other
smaller
micro
mobility
devices,
there's
a
map
of
transit,
priority
projects
identified
within
the
draft
plan
and
our
truck
route
network.
H
H
Particular
here
at
creation
of
a
Plaza
program,
we're
looking
to
include
pedestrian
street
lighting
on
all
reconstruction
projects
and
that
really
focused
on
street
crossings
realize
the
city
light
transit
vision
that
makes
taking
transit,
more
attract
and
comfortable
and
affordable
for
all
people
along
those
lines.
We're
looking
to
have
a
walk
shed
if
you
will
or
a
transit
coverage,
so
75%
of
residents
in
the
city
are
within
a
five-minute.
Walk
of
transit,
high
frequency,
transit
and
90%
are,
within
ten
minute,
walk
use
street
design
to
provide
a
more
comfortable
and
healthier
environment
for
people.
H
This
includes
things
like
more
green
infrastructure
and
street
trees
with
our
projects,
we're
planning
to
act
quickly
to
improve
our
streets
and
not
always
wait
for
that
reconstruction
project,
but
focus
on
paint
and
lower
cost
infrastructure.
Improvements
to
make
change,
increase
our
all
ages
and
abilities,
Network
almost
twofold,
focusing
on
those
low
stress,
protected,
bicycle
and
micro
mobility
system
for
all
system
users.
No
matter
your
age
or
ability.
We
plan
to
update
our
Complete
Streets
policy
to
include
Freight
micro
mobility
and
green
infrastructure.
H
We
plan
to
adopt
a
strong
curbside
management
policy
to
address
those
competing
needs
at
the
curb
and
really
have
a
more
focused
and
intentional
way
of
proactively.
Managing
that
very
desirable
space
across
multiple
needs
within
our
city
and
last
plan
highlight
here
implement
a
network
of
mobility
hubs
where
you
can
bring
together
and
connect
multiple
types
of
transportation,
shared
transportation
options,
transit
bikes,
scooters
and
cars.
H
So
we
there's
ten
different
measures
that
we
have
in
the
draft
plan.
I'm
highlighting
three
here
mode
share
goal
that
we
just
talked
about
and
I
just
wanted
to
highlight
a
couple
of
the
reasons
for
adopting
a
mode
shift
goal.
First,
it's
in
line
with
our
greenhouse
gas
emissions
reduction
and
it
will
improve
air
quality,
will
allow
us
to
allocate
space
more
effectively
and
efficiently
and
equitably
across
modes.
H
The
greenhouse
gas
reduction
goal
is
in
line
with
our
climate
action
plan,
initially
adopted
this
80%
reduction
by
2050
from
a
2006
baseline.
This
was
reinforced
in
Minneapolis
2040,
and
this
chart
here
shows
the
transportation
sectors
portion
of
that
from
2018,
which
is
24%
of
our
total
citywide
emissions.
And
then
this
is
a
map
which
goes
in
tandem
with
what
I
just
spoke
about.
H
So
that's
how
the
plan
is
structured
and
I'm
happy
to
also
share
with
you
some
of
the
early
impacts
in
terms
of
policy
planning
and
projects
that
we
can
anticipate
with
the
draft
plan
or
with
the
final
plan
when
it's
adopted.
First
in
2020,
we
plan
on
updating
our
Complete
Streets
policy
and
creating
a
curbside
management
policy.
We've
got
a
lot
of
tools
now
at
our
disposal.
H
This
is
a
digital
map,
of
our
curb
of
our
curb
and
what's
allowed
when
so
we
plan
on
bringing
both
of
those
forward
within
this
calendar
year,
also
in
2020
we're
planning
to
coordinate
our
transit
actions
with
Metro
Transit's
network
next,
which
is
their
large
city,
wat,
region-wide,
planning
and
effort
for
transit
in
the
region,
and
we've
been
working
together
with
them
on
our
transit
section.
They
know,
what's
in
there,
they're
excited
that
we
are
establishing
our
vision
and
will
work
to
incorporate
that
with
network.
H
Next,
we're
also
completing
the
street
design
guide,
which
will
start
provide
the
foundation
for
our
actual
capital
projects
out
on
the
street,
and
here
are
some
examples
of
what
sort
of
graphics
will
be
in
there
planning
work.
In
the
first
few
years,
we
will
evaluate
and
amend
the
CIP
to
align
with
the
tap
evaluate
for
lane
undivided
streets
in
the
city
for
safety,
conversions,
develop
the
pedestrian
Plaza
program
and
update
the
truck
route
map.
This
list
is
not
exhaustive.
H
We
will
do
other
things
as
well,
but
this
is
a
highlighting
of
of
what
we're
confident
in
at
this
point
in
terms
of
project
work.
This
year
test
bus
pilots
on
three
corridors,
expand
our
mobility
hub
pilot
to
more
locations,
institute,
new
speed
limits
on
our
city,
streets
and
retie,
our
traffic
signals
and
alignment
with
that
begin
to
incorporate
the
pedestrian
street
lighting
and
green
infrastructure
into
our
CIP
projects.
H
Install
afford
a
three
lane:
conversion
on
a
city-owned
high
injury
street
and
install
an
all
ages
and
abilities
bike
way
on
first
Ave
grant
and
second
half
south
within
the
next
few
years.
Looking
to
install
bus,
only
lanes
or
other
transit
advantages
on
select
downtown
streets,
complete
all
the
safe
Street
actions
that
are
outlined
in
our
vision.
Zero
action
plan
incorporate
green
infrastructure
into
our
capital.
Projects,
include
pedestrian
lighting
on
all
Street
reconstruction
projects
and
advance
multiple
all
ages
and
ability
network
protected
bike
way.
Projects.
H
So
again,
really,
the
today
opens
the
beginning
of
a
conversation
and
we
hope
lots
of
people
join
in
and
share
their
thoughts
about
what
they
think
is
in
this
draft
plan,
where
they
want
to
see
it
go,
and
we
hope
you
help
us
spread
the
word.
Here's
a
summary
of
the
opportunities
that
exist
to
comment
on
the
draft
plan,
and
that
is
what
I
have
today
happy
to
have
any
questions.
Thank
you.
Any.
A
I
Well,
I'm,
not
sure
I
have
a
question
or
not.
I
did
want
to
make
a
comment
and
I'm
not
sure.
If
right
now
is
the
time,
you
really
want
a
lot
of
advice
or
discussion,
but
I
think
it's
an
opportunity
for
us
to
give
feedback.
If
we
had
it
and
I
know
that
I
also
had
a
briefing
with
staff
on
this
and
provided
lots
of
feedback.
Then
I
guess
the
big
piece
of
feedback
that
I'd
like
to
provide
now
is
just
wow
Oh.
A
I
I
know
that
there's
two
that
are
kind
of
at
different
ends
of
the
spectrum.
For
me,
one
is
what's
the
guidance
for
when
we
are
going
to
be
finishing
up
or
restoring
or
building
out
our
Street
infrastructure,
so
in
some
unique
parts
of
the
city
there's
some
old
areas
like
the
southeast
Minneapolis
industrial
zone
that
doesn't
have
the
street
grid
built
out
yet
or
we're
building,
supposedly
we're
going
to
restore
one
over
on
Nikolas.
So
are
we?
Do
we
have
enough
strategies
to
guide
us
and
I
also
hear
a
lot
from
people
about?
I
How
can
I
get
cars
taken
off
my
street?
What
what
are
the
ways
to
do
that?
What
are
we
going
to
do
that?
We
hear
a
lot
about.
Can
we
have
them
more
bus?
Only
lanes
in
those
things
and
I
know
those
are
kind
of
all
of
both
of
those
are
more
I.
Think
I,
maybe
said
four
or
five
things,
but
I'm
are
kind
of
called
out
or
touched
in
the
plan.
But
how
do
we
flush
out
those
details
and
I?
Think
it's
a
fantastic
opportunity?
I
I'm
gonna
work
hard
to
engage
my
neighborhoods
and
my
communities,
my
business
groups
that
look
at
this
and
give
feedback
and
get
excited
about
it.
I'm
built
on
it,
so
I
look
forward
to
working
on
it
in
the
days
ahead
and
coming
up
with
lots,
more
ideas
and
thanks
for
all
the
partners
for
being
here
and
caring,
because
we're
gonna
really
need
a
lot
of
eyes
and
a
lot
of
people
with
interest.
It's
amazing
how
much
passion
people
in
Minneapolis
have
for
transportation
planning.
J
A
lot
of
the
best
ideas
that
have
come
forward
from
a
lot
of
my
constituents
are
reflected
here
and
that's
really
exciting,
to
see
and
there's
some
really
ambitious
sections
of
this
document.
There's
things
about
this.
That
would
really
be
transformative
in
the
best
way
for
our
city,
so
I
want
to
just
you
know,
really
name
that
I
think
there
are
sections
that
are
less
ambitious.
J
I
still
think
we
have
more
of
a
conversation
that
needs
to
happen
around
snow
removal,
but
I
think
that
in
general,
there's
so
much
here
to
like
and
there's
so
much
here.
That
will
keep
us
busy
for
10
years,
implementing
some
very
ambitious
strategies
that
I
think
people
are
going
to
be
very
excited
about,
and
I
really
are
going
to
make
people
safer.
So
thank
you
for
letting
this
forward
I'm
really
excited
to
dig
into
it.
J
K
You
mr.
chair
I
love
all
the
Wow's
I
got
the
chance
to
serve
on
the
steering
committee
with
with
chair,
Reich
and
so
I've
gotten
the
chance
to
say
wow
a
lot
of
times
during
the
process
of
developing
this
plan
and
I.
Think
that
you
all
at
Public,
Works
and
the
and
the
other
departments
that
helped
contribute
have
done
an
extraordinary
job
of
really
articulating
a
strong
vision
for
our
city.
K
Moving
forward
that
centers
raise
equity
and
climate
action
and
done
it
in
a
way
that
is
specific
enough
to
measure
progress
with
measurable
goals,
about
transit
access
mode
share
about
the
changes
that
we
really
need
to
make
to
realize
that
vision
and
those
goals
and
I
love
that
you
included
the
slides
today
with
examples
of
things
that
we're
doing
now.
That
will
come
in
the
next
12
months.
I.
K
Think
it's
really
important
for
the
folks
who
are
behind
this
vision,
who
are
ready
to
help
make
the
changes
that
our
city
needs
to
make
to
see
progress
in
the
streets.
And
so
every
time
we
put
in
a
new
bus,
only
Lane
are
a
great
protected
bike
facility
or
a
really
great
pedestrian
safety
improvement
or
afford
a
three
lane.
Conversion
which
sounds
like
will
be
coming
soon,
I
think
it
helps
us
build
momentum
and
demonstrate
that
these
big
ideas
can
work
day
to
day
in
people's
lives.
K
K
And
so
here
we
have
a
plan
that
says
you
know
what
you
should
have
a
real
choice
to
get
on
the
bus
and
get
to
work
and
no
matter
where
you
live
in
the
city.
You
should
be
able
to
walk
5
minutes,
get
on
a
high
frequency
bus
and
be
connected
to
your
job
to
your
school,
so
that
your
kids
activities
to
wherever
you
need
to
go.
K
So
this
you
know
we
have
a
long
way
to
go
to
get
to
that
point
where
it
is
actually
a
real,
safe,
convenient,
attractive
choice,
but
I
think
this
plan
lays
out
a
again
a
very
specific
way
to
get
there.
I
know
excitement
is
building
and
growing.
Every
time
we
make
an
improvement
in
our
streets.
I
did
remind
folks
in
Ward
10
who,
by
and
large,
are
really
excited
about
this
vision.
K
K
You
know,
and
it
were
welcome
comments
and
critiques
and
ideas
about
how
to
go
farther,
but
remember
to
give
that
positive
feedback,
because
I
know
these
are
big
shifts
and
big
changes
that
are
going
to
take
our
community
really
behind
us
as
we
experiment
as
we
learn
as
we
figure
out
how
to
do
better
to
realize
the
vision
here
in
the
draft
transportation
action
plan.
So
thank
you
so
much
for
everything
I'm
so
excited
again.
To
get
to
be
part
of
this
work
with
chair,
Reich
and
appreciate.
K
You
know
again
to
the
point
about
the
timeline.
I
think
it
was
important
to
take
the
time
to
really
gather
the
data
to
map
out
our
unsafe
streets,
to
show
where
we
really
need
to
put
resources
to
make
change
from
a
lens
of
race,
equity
from
transportation,
equity
and
really
understand
our
street
system.
First,
I
think
it
will
build
into
this
plan
longevity
and
make
it
more
sustainable
to
implement
over
a
long
time,
so
I
think
those
two
pieces
of
continuing
to
make
changes
in
the
streets.
K
I
A
I
A
A
The
next
45
days,
I
mean
I,
can
see
people
interacting
with
this
people,
who
are
very
invested
very
technically
savvy
in
addition
to
the
layperson,
who
also
wants
to
make
sure
that
this
plan
guides
their
communities
in
a
certain
way
and
it
adds
to
their
mobility
options
as
council
president
bender
so
well
put
I
can
see
citizen
involvement
being
enhanced
because
of
the
thought
you
put
into
the
document
as
it
stands
today
and
thereby
will
be
further
enhanced
with
that
input
for
the
final
product.
I
have
great
confidence
in
that.
A
A
Also
I
know
it
would
be
remiss
to
who
knows
that
a
coma
or
non
committee
member,
but
very
engaged
council
members,
traders
here
and
I
think
the
significance
that
is
not
only
you
see
leadership
in
terms
of
our
people
who
are
topically
identified
with
transportation,
but
the
coordination
that
goes
and
we
have
director
Frank
here.
You
know
key
to
the
build
form
how
it
interacts
he's
here,
making
sure
this
document
interfaces
in
a
coordinated,
not
siloed
way.
A
We
have
the
chair
of
all
the
built
form
very
engaged
Schrader
and
with
the
zoning
and
planning
Gordon
with
housing.
You
know.
So
we
have
this
sort
of
intentional
coordination
that
built
form
and
how
we
move
around
our
one
exercise
and
I
think
that
moving
forward
also
will
speak
to
a
very
strong
when
we
get
to
the
final
phase.
So
with
that
I
look
forward
to
the
work
ahead
of
us,
but
very
confident,
given
the
work
that
we've
done
so
far.
Thank.
