So
it
is
staggering-
and
I
know
that
it's
powerful
for
me
to
to
read
through
the
names
of
these
individuals.
We
look
at
statistics
and
we
had
feedback
very
early
on
that.
You
know
the
statistics
didn't
didn't
paint
an
honest
enough
picture,
and
so
that's
why
we
we
do
this
and
thank
you
vice
chair,
foley,
as
well
and
and
for
everyone
on
the
task
force
for
participating
in
indulging
us
vision.
D
We
encourage
task
force
members
to
think
creatively
about
how
they
or
their
departments
may
be
able
to
help
address
reducing
traffic
injuries
and
fatalities
by
creating
new
partnerships
or
programs
that
we
may
not
have
thought
of
yet,
and
this
is
just
an
opportunity
as
a
reminder.
The
reason
why
this
task
force
is
so
broad
is
because
we
recognize
the
different
stakeholders
that
can
play
a
part
in
helping
to
reduce
traffic
injuries
and
fatalities.
This
is
not
something
that
rests
solely
in
the
department
of
transportation
or
the
police
department.
D
Okay,
we
will
now
move
into
our
roll
call
and
I'll
be
calling
out
the
department
and
organization
name
and
if
the
representative
could
give
a
brief
introduction
with
just
themselves
their
name
and
their
title
would
be
most
appreciated
and
and
then,
if
there
are
any
other
new
panelists
that
have
joined
us
in
2022
that
haven't
been
able
to
introduce
themselves
before
you
can
raise
your
hand
and
we'll
make
sure
to
call
on
you
at
the
end
of
our
roll
call
here.
So
I
am
president.
D

B
D
D
D
Okay,
well,
thank
you
we'll
move
on
now
we
have
our
announcement
of
our
minutes,
which
are
posted
for
the
vision,
zero
task
force
for
december
10th.
Excuse
me
from
april
or
knows
from
december.
10Th
minutes
are
posted
and
the
meeting
minutes
from
the
last
april
6
meeting
were
posted
to
the
website
as
well,
and
you
can
reach
out
to
staff
directly.
If
you
have
any
comments
on
those,
this
meeting
is
being
recorded
as
as
always
and
it
will
be
posted.
The
panelists
have
been
muted
by
default.
D
Okay,
we'll
now
move
on
to
our
reports
and
updates.
This
will
be
coming
from
jesse
mintz
roth
from
san
jose.
D.O.T
will
give
us
some
updates
on
the
vision,
zero,
key,
metrics
updates
on
vision,
zero
action
plan,
priority
action
areas
will
follow
presented
by
jesse,
minsmiroth
and
voodow
from
rdot,
and
then
sergeant
doug
gates
from
the
san
jose
police
department
and
then
we'll
have
our
task
force.
Member
discussions
and
questions
to
follow
jesse
with
floor
is
yours.
J
J
Hopefully,
it'll
work
this
time.
Thank
you
for
your
introduction
and
I
just
introduced
myself.
My
name
is
justine
sarah
and
I'm
the
vision,
zero
program
manager,
I'm
gonna
begin
by
talking
about
the
traffic
fatality
trends
and
just
as
you've,
given
the
introduction
and
naming
all
of
the
people,
who've
passed
since
our
last
task
force.
J
Obviously,
the
pandemic
is
unusual.
We
can
see
that
in
the
2020
data
being
lower
than
2019
and
2021
and
as
the
economy
reopened
in
mid-2021,
the
the
number
of
traffic
fatalities
began
going
above
the
typical
range
from
before
and
as
we
went
into
2022,
that
number
was
quite
high
and
we've
been
quite
attentive
to
that
higher
number
of
traffic
fatalities
going
into
well
really
the
first
months
of
the
year.
J
J
Key
metrics
so
far
in
2022
is
that
we
see
17
or
38
percent
of
fatalities
of
the
485
fatalities
so
far
occurring
on
priority
safety
corridors.
This
is
typical,
it's
usually
30
to
40
percent.
We
see
five
of
them
so
far
on
white
road,
so
that
is
really
unusual
to
see
so
many
fatalities
on
one
road,
and
so
that
has
been
a
corridor
that
we
are
quite
interested
in
applying,
especially
to
get
grant
funding,
to
have
a
lot
of
have
more
money
to
do
some
of
its
bigger
issues.
J
J
Speeding
is
typically
our
highest
known
factor
and
six
with
red
light
running,
which
is
also
typically
our
number
two
eight
involved
in
house
people,
which
is
something
that
we
have
highlighted
in
previous
task
forces
that
there's
a
growing
number
of
traffic
fatalities
where
the
victim
is
someone
who
is
unhoused
and
then
23
involve
people
walking
and
so
23
is
fully
half
or
just
above
half
of
all.
The
traffic
fatalities
so
far
and
of
those
23,
14
or
61
percent
were
outside
crosswalks.
J
No
dear
go
back
to
that
slide,
so
these
are
the
sort
of
wrist
view
of
the
traffic
fatalities
that
were
the
names
of
people
who
council
members,
paralysis
and
fully
read
in
the
introduction.
You
can
see
the
orange
color
for
people
killed
while
walking
is
the
dominant
color
here
and
two
of
them
look
to
involve
two
people.
So
that
is
sorry.
J
So,
moving
on
to
the
action
plan
update,
there
are
six
areas
in
the
action
plan
and
I
will
go
through
them
here
and,
in
some
cases,
invite
other
people
to
speak
to
these
slides
under
the
first
area,
which
is
to
build
robust
data
analytics
tools.
We
have
been
working
with
our
contractor
urban
logic
to
update
the
priority
safety
corridors,
and
so
this
will
be
the
first
time
that
the
priority
safety
corridors
have
been
updated
in
five
years.
They
were
originally
created
when
san
jose
adopted
vision,
zero
in
2015
and
updated
in
2017.
J
By
doing
this
update,
we
will
be
creating
a
cadence
of
updating
the
priority
safety
corridors.
Every
five
years
the
update
uses
the
most
recent
five
years
of
data.
Actually
this
is
six
but
2017
to
2021
and
we're
basically
working
with
urban
logic
to
evaluate
the
other
city.
The
other
methodologies
that
other
visions
here
at
cities
used
to
create
their
vision,
zero
networks
as
well.
J
So
this
time
we're
able
to
compare
what
it
would
be
like
to
use
the
methodology
we've
used
so
far
to,
for
example,
the
methodology
that
san
francisco
uses
and
see
if
we
use
those
different
methodologies.
If
the
map
at
the
end
is
similar
or
different.
So
that's
been
very
interesting
to
explore
other
methodologies
that
we
could
use
we're
going
to
be
presenting
on
this
topic
to
the
city
council,
transportation,
environment
committee
on
november
7th.
J
So
I
won't
be
showing
a
map
now,
but
if
you're
interested
in
the
topic
and
finding
out
which
other
streets
will
be
designating
as
priority
safety
corridors
in
the
future,
please
attend
that
meeting
as
a
sort
of
high
level
topic.
We
look
to
be
expanding
the
network.
Currently,
the
network
covers
three
percent
of
san
jose's
streets,
which
equals
sunny,
70
centerline
miles,
and
so
we're
looking.
J
It
seems
likely
that
we'll
be
doubling
it
to
about
six
percent,
which
will
equal
about
twice
as
many
as
underlying
miles,
and
the
version
of
it
that
we're
currently
looking
at
will
probably
fall
88
in
what
the
metropolitan
transportation
commission
at
the
bay
area
designates
as
equity,
priority
communities
and
now
for
the
slide
about
strategizing
traffic
enforcement.
I
will
pass
the
mic
over
to
sergeant
doug
gates
from
the
san
jose
police
department.
G
Obviously,
one
area
of
concern
that
we
looked
into
is
why
citations
dipped
in
the
december
january
time
frame
specifically
because
of
the
increase
of
injury,
collisions
and
fatalities
that
occurred
during
then
some
contributing
factors
obviously
is
inclement
weather.
Our
motorcycle
officers
do
not
ride
typically
in
the
rain,
so
they'll
be
out
in
cars
to
increase
safety
and
visibility.
G
What
does
limit
them
from
getting
around
as
much
another
contributing
factor
during
that
time
frame?
We
lost
three
officers
from
the
unit
to
retirement,
so
backfilling
those
positions
and
getting
those
officers
up
to
speed
in
their
their
role
took
some
time,
and
so
we're
still
struggling
with
staffing
going
forward.
But
we
hope
to
partner
with
d.o.t
and
determine
where
our
resources
can
be
deployed
to
best
lower
the
injuries
and
collisions.
D
Yeah
thank
you
and
thank
you
for
sharing
the
data
that
was
collected
from
our
town
hall
back
in
april.
So
as
everybody's
able
to
see
up
on
the
screen
there,
you
can
take
a
look
at
that.
As
I
just
give
some
overview
remarks.
I
want
to
thank
our
vice
chair
as
well:
pam
foley
for
co-hosting
the
event
and
our
task
force
members,
especially
those
such
as
from
arp
and
the
silicon
valley
bike
coalition,
for
helping
to
co-host
and
promote
the
event
as
well.
D
Additionally,
I
know
several
council
members
and
such
as
myself
got
additional
council
dollars
that
we
requested
through
the
budget
for
traffic
additional
traffic
coming
measures
and
the
city
council
allocated
an
additional
300
000
crosswalk
study
sideshow
and
enhanced
crosswalks
throughout
our
our
city.
Second,
the
other
theme
that
we
saw
is
continuing
dialogue
and
engagement.
D
D
I
can
attest
that
in
my
seven
years,
nearly
eight
years
now
as
a
council
member,
a
lot
of
the
traffic
calming
projects
were
driven
by
concerns
raised
by
our
community
members,
and
I
want
to
thank
lamb,
crews
and
all
the
members
of
the
team,
such
as
armando
camacho,
daniel
fernandez
and
jennifer
dyer,
for
continuing
to
work
with
my
team
and
the
council
in
responding
to
the
numerous
traffic
calming
inquiries
that
come
in.
This
includes
collecting
data
on
speeding
or
potentially
hazardous
conditions
and
then
suggesting
any
solutions.
D
If
available
and
oftentimes,
there
are
no
infrastructure
changes
that
can
be
made
an
example.
My
office
just
received
a
concern
about
fourth
and
heading
street
and
I
appreciated
the
concern.
I
live
not
too
far
down
the
street
myself
and
and
understand
the
the
the
speed
of
that
intersection
in
both
directions.
D
It
is
important
that
we
continue
to
allow
for
open
channels
of
communication
between
our
city
hall
and
residents,
as
they
are
our
eyes
and
ears
on
the
street,
and
they
can
provide
us
the
best
feedback
and
we
can
in
turn
provide
them
with
the
best
solutions
available.
This
is
something
I
encourage
those
taking
on
the
task
force
and
our
business
zero
program
next
year
to
build
upon
and
again
just
wanna
say.
D
J
So
I
will
continue
on
to
the
next
slide,
so
also
under
community
outreach
and
engagement.
We
currently
have
a
number
of
summer
walk
audits.
We
did
one
in
june.
Actually
two,
both
the
one
in
june
and
july,
were
a
collaboration
with
the
county
department
of
rhodes
and
airports
joined
here
on
the
task
force,
so
the
first
was
almaden
expressway
in
june
and
then
capital
expressway
in
july.
J
J
So
you
may
see
some
of
our
staff
on
the
roadway
using
these
as
well,
and
we
partnered
with
beautify
fjsj
and
the
prns
and
want
to
thank
neil's
team
for
helping
us
distribute
these
flashlights
and
lanterns
to
225
and
house
people
at
15
locations,
and
we
hear
that
they'll
be
working
with
us
to
do
more
soon,
which
is
great.
So
we're
excited
for
this
new
initiative.
K
K
This
past
month,
we
completed
2.3
miles
of
quick,
build
improvements
on
hillsdale
avenue,
a
vision,
zero
priority
safety
corridor
where
we
leverage
our
payment
program.
In
conjunction
with
the
funding
from
the
vta
transportation
fund
for
clean
air
grant
to
implement
this
project,
we
would
like
to
highlight
some
key
elements
that
we
had
implemented.
K
As
you
may
know,
hills
avenue
was
a
very
wide
roadway
with
high
vehicular
speeds.
In
this
project
we
removed
the
excess
travel
lane
and
reallocate
the
space
to
establish
a
new
and
high
quality
bike
lane
in
the
center
image
below
you
can
see
that
we
provide
amber
of
buffer
space
for
bicyclists
and,
where
feasible,
we
also
install
plastic
posts
to
provide
a
vertical
separation
between
the
bicyclists
and
the
fast-moving
traffic
and
in
some
areas
we
use
park
vehicles
as
a
separator
to
provide
greater
protection.
K
We
also
upgrade
all
the
crosswalk
to
high
visibility,
as
you
can
see
in
the
image
to
the
bottom
left.
We
also
strike
the
bike
lanes
through
the
intersection
and
add
all
approaches
to
the
intersection
using
green
color,
to
create
more
emphasis
for
bicycle
spacing,
and
we
also
replace
all
the
traffic
signal
head
back
plates
with
the
retro
reflective,
yellow
ones
to
increase
their
visibility.
As
you
can
see
in
the
image.
K
So
those
are
the
key
elements
that
we
implemented
as
part
of
this
quick
build
project,
we
are
continuing
to
monitor
the
improvements,
assess
and
make
the
adjustment
accordingly,
where
necessary,
and
that's
the
beauty
of
quick
build.
We
can
make
adjustments,
modifications
with
ease
to
address
a
need
or
to
make
it
better.
J
J
J
J
That
is
the
first
road
that
underwent
the
quick
field,
redesign
in
2020
2021
and
we've
always
had
this
consultant
designed
to
build
it
out
once
we
saw
how
the
quick
build
was
working,
and
so
this
10
million
state
earmark
will.
Let
us
begin
to
do
that,
but
I
should
say
that
to
build
out,
even
one
road
is
far
more
expensive
than
10
million
dollars,
and
so
the
10
million
dollar
earmark,
while
amazing,
is
not
as
much
as
we
need
to
do
that
project.
J
So
we've
also
applied
under
the
bay
area
metropolitan
transportation.
Commission's
one
bay
area
grant
program
for
a
number
of
streets
in
san
jose,
including
three
priority
safety
corridors
in
east
san
jose,
which
are
jackson,
avenue,
white
road
and
king
road.
We're
waiting
to
find
out
how
those
applications
go.
J
There's
also
two
deadlines
coming
up:
one
is
for
the
federal
highway
administration's
highway
safety
improvement
program,
otherwise
known
as
h-sip,
and
so
I
I
should
update
the
may
applies
that
we
will
apply
for
that
under
the
signals.
Division
to
do
some
work
and
perhaps
also
under
street
redesign
h-sip
program.
Grants
in
the
bay
area
in
recent
years
have
been
less
than
a
million
dollars
generally,
so
the
amount
of
stuff
that
we
can
do
with
one
of
these
grants
is
generally
lower.
J
But
one
of
the
exciting
new
developments
is
that
the
united
states
department
of
transportation,
so
the
agency
that
oversees
the
federal
highway
administration
has
a
new
safety
grant
called
safe
streets
for
all.
And
since
we
have
a
mature
vision,
zero
program,
we
are
eligible
to
apply
for
one
of
the
big
grants
through
that
it
requires
having
a
joint
applicant,
and
so
our
joint
applicant
will
be
in
santa
clara,
the
santa
clara
county
department
of
roads
and
airports.
J
D
E
Thank
you,
council
member.
I
do
have
a
couple
of
questions.
One
jesse.
Can
you
go
to
the
fatality
slide?
I
just
want
to
highlight
the
ages
of
some
of
the
of
the
pedestrians.
Can
you
review
those
numbers
with
me?
I
know
it
was
there,
but
for
the
people
who
are
watching
this,
they
might
not
have
noticed
that
the
age
was
available
are
so
are
we
tracking
of
the
pedestrians
we
have
several
who
are
over
50?
E
Are
we
can
we
id
and
in
this
report
it's
which
is
really
detailed,
it's
very
helpful
and
it
shows
who
was
in
a
crossroad
who
wasn't
and
how
and
their
ages.
But
I
want
to
point
out
that
in
some
of
these
areas
we
may
want
to
when
we're
looking
at
making
those
intersections
safer,
increase
to
crosswalk
the
lights
and
make
it
easier
for
someone
who's
has
mobility
issues
to
give
them
enough
time
to
cross
the
street
for
the
for
the
drivers.
E
Let
me
know
what
intersections
or
streets
are
of
most
concern
to
them,
and
I
actually
had
office
hours
a
couple
weeks
ago
and
challenged
neighbors.
What's
the
10
streets
that
need
more
safety
precautions
in
district
9,
and
I
got
a
whole
list
so
we'll
be
looking
at
that
and
going
through
those
with
with
the
department
of
transportation
later
moving
on
from
this
slide,
which
is
which
is
very
helpful.
Thank
you.
I
do
want
to
ask
about
traffic
enforcement
and
the
teu
the
traffic
enforcement
unit.
G
We
just
lost
all,
as
you
know,
lieutenant
anaya
has
retired
and
good
for
the
department.
Unfortunately,
for
us,
two
of
our
officers
were
just
recently
promoted
to
sergeant,
so
we
lost
two
more
officers
which
will
bring
us
down
to
two
teams
of
enforcement
with
a
sergeant
on
each
team
and
then
we'll
have
seven
officers
on
on
each
one
of
those
teams.
So
a
total
of
14
enforcement
officers,
two
enforcement
sergeants,
and
we
still
have
our
special
events
team,
which
is
made
up
of
one
sergeant
and
two
officers.
B
E
E
Okay,
great
thank
you.
Vue
I'd
like
to
talk
to
you
a
little
bit
about
hillsdale,
that
is
in
district
nine,
and
thank
you
very
much
for
all
the
quick
build
activity
on
that
street.
I've
heard
a
lot
of
positive
comments
as
the
council
member,
that
represents
that
area.
I've
also
heard
some
frustrations
from
people
and
I've
encouraged
people
to
live
with
it
for
a
while
change
is
hard
for
us
to
adapt
to,
but
ultimately
this
will
make
our
streets
safer
and
slow
down
traffic,
which
is
our
goal.
E
E
E
K
K
In
most
cases
where
we
have
the
opening
is
to
provide
for
u-turn
and
also
left
turn
into
the
neighborhood,
because
there
are
many
intersections
along
this
long
corridor.
The
intent
of
putting
in
the
median
island
one
is
to
create
a
supporting
that
we
reduce
the
risk,
hence
increase
the
safety
along
the
corridor.
So
the
opening
is
to
allow
for
drivers
to
be
able
to
make
a
u-turn
or
left
turn
to
go
back
to
their
destination
or
to
get
to
their
destination,
and
it
is.
It
is
strategically
chosen
to
to
allow
those
maneuvers
at
those
openings.
E
E
There
were
a
lot
of
accidents
in
the
middle
of
that
median
strip
and-
and
I
I
think
what
you've
done
is
really
good.
I
also
like
that
it's
quick
build
and
that
it
can
be
a
work
in
progress
so,
as
as
people
report
to
us,
we're
reporting
to
you
and
you've
been
very
responsive.
But
let
me
ask
you
a
question
about
that,
so
when,
when
we
hear
from
the
community
such
as
why,
when
I
turn
on
this
intersection
from
almaden
expressway
to
cherry,
for
example,
do
I
have
to
make
that
sharp
turn?
E
K
E
Okay,
thank
you
that
that's
really
helpful.
I
again,
I
am
very
supportive
of
all
the
work
that
has
been
done
on
hillsdale
to
slow
it
down
and
make
it
a
safer
corridor
for
drivers
and
pedestrians.
I
I
think
the
work
is
great
and
for
the
most
part
the
community
is
too,
but
change
is
hard
and
one
question
I
have
is-
and
maybe
you
can
help
answer
it
for
me,
so
that
when
I
get
asked
this
question,
I
can
have
a
an
educated
answer
for
them.
E
If
you
look
in
this
picture,
the
the
slide,
the
picture
on
the
left
that
has
the
bicycle
lane
is
in
between
the
curb
and
the
traffic
or
the
part,
the
parked
cars.
So
you
see
the
the
rv
right
there,
that
is
the
outside
of
the
bike
lane,
but
most
of
hillsdale
has
been
re-striped
with
the
bike
lane
outside
of
the
parked
cars.
K
Yes,
thank
you
for
for
your
question.
So
there
are
two
type
of
protective
bike
lanes
that
we
implement
on
hillsdale
in
the
image
in
the
center
that
you
see
here
where
we
kept
the
bike
lane
closer
to
the
curb,
and
the
ball
is
to
the
left
of
the
bicyclist.
So
this
is
the
typical
setup
that
you
see
out
on
hillsdale,
where
there's
no
parking,
we
can
remove.
K
So
imagine
for
a
moment
that
the
left
of
the
bicyclist
now
is
a
long
row
of
vehicles
parked
there,
where
the
bicyclists
will
feel
a
lot
safer,
because
it
is
a
vertical
fixed
protection
for
them
to
ride
along
this
roadway.
So
only
in
several
segments
of
hillsdale
that
we
were
able
to
use
the
park
vehicles
as
a
vertical
separator.
In
most
cases,
we
are
only
using
the
pose
as
a
separator
to
provide
that
protection
for
the
bicyclists.
E
D
B
D
G
Thank
you
chair.
Yes,
I
a
couple
of
comments.
First
appreciate
vice
chair
fully
pointing
out
the
age
metric
and,
if
we
add
all
of
the
fatalities
this
year
about,
46
percent
were
of
older
adults,
50
plus,
but
the
real
alarming
contributors
of
pedestrian
fatalities,
of
which
56
of
our
pedestrian
fatalities
are
older.
G
So,
as
we
turn
from
the
analytics
to
more
and
more
community
outreach,
arp
in
san
jose
would
certainly
like
to
offer
its
resources
to
assist
in
reaching
the
older
adults
in
the
community,
with
whatever
action
plan
comes
out.
So
we're
very
interested
to
hear
the
next
segment
of
this
task
force.
Meeting
on
specific
community
outreach
outreach
plans
so
that
we
can
engage
and
participate.
Thank
you
for
the
time.
D
Yeah,
thank
you,
joe
okay.
I
don't
see
any
other
hands
from
task
force
members.
I
just
had
a
couple
questions
and
and
comments
jesse
on
the
the
grant
that
we
submitted
for,
and
it
looks
like
we
have
a
co
or
a
co-applicant
on
that
right,
and
so
I
think,
that's
great-
that
we're
partnering
with
roads
and
airports
at
the
county.
On
that.
D
D
Okay,
so
that
is
good
news
then,
and
hopefully
everybody
that's
present
today.
I'll
reiterate
that
hopefully,
everybody's
presence
today
is
able
to
write
a
letter
of
recommendation
or
a
support
letter
for
this
particular
grant.
That
rdot
and
in
santa
clara
county
roads
and
airports
have
co-applied
for
and
then,
as
those
opportunities
come
up
in
the
future,
would
love
to
have
this
task
force
be
able
to.
D
You
know
to
be
utilized
to
demonstrate
support,
and
hopefully
we
can
generate
some
more
of
these
resources
from
these
grants
and
then
allow
us
to
apply
for
more
of
these
projects
to
be
funded.
So
that
is
helpful,
and
then
I
actually
had
the
same
question
for
sergeant
gates,
but
it
sounds
like
we
may
not
know.
Exactly
I
had
recalled
around
24
was
the
allocated.
D
It's
it's
now
likely
going
to
be
above
10,
but
I'm
not
100
positive
on
that
24
number,
it
sounds
like
sergeant
gates
wasn't
positive
either,
but
I
know
we
definitely
have
vacancies
in
teu
and
we
had
them
before
so
now
we
have
more
because
we've
lost
a
couple
people,
so
I
will
reiterate
individually
in
my
meetings
with
the
chief
that
we
want
to
see
that
unit.
You
know
as
as
quick
as
possible,
be
fully
stepped
up.
D
I
know
the
challenges
chief
had
was
just
competing
needs
in
other
units,
but
at
least
if
we
can
backfill
the
officers
that
we
just
lost
would
would
be
tremendous,
and
I
know
sergeant
gates,
you
are
you're
acting
lieutenant
at
the
moment.
That's
why
you're
present
with
us
today
right
so
you're,
sort
of
double
double
duty
that
is
correct,
sir
okay,
and
so
that's
obviously
you
know
not
helpful
either.
I
think
right.
We
want
to
as
soon
as
possible.
Hopefully
we
can
get.
You
know,
get
these
these
spots
backfilled
so
I'll.
D
E
D
We
will
now
move
on
then
to
our
section
four
and
let's
see
we'll
be
welcoming
in
now
rebecca,
graham
from
mig
darwin
and
kyle
wong
from
our
san
jose
d.o.t
and
as
a
reminder.
We
have
15
minutes
for
each
agency,
presentation
here
and
then
there'll
be
three
different
presentations
from
dot
for
center
road,
mclaughlin
avenue
and
white
road
and
then
we'll
follow
with
q
a
again
so
I'll
now
turn
it
over
to
rebecca.
F
L
F
F
We've
been
working
with
the
vision,
zero
team
on
the
strategic
communications
program
for
the
past
year
on
that
work,
as
well
as
diana
chao
trotter
who's.
Also,
here
in
this
meeting,
she's
the
director
of
marketing
strategy
with
mig
and
we're
eager
to
share
with
this
group
what
we've
been
up
to
so
all
along
we've,
been
working
with
what
we
call
the
vision:
zero,
san
jose
team.
It's
comprised
of
representatives
from
the
city
county,
excuse
me
and
vta,
and
so
today.
F
F
I'll
give
you
an
outline
of
how
we
did
that
and
what
issue
we
chose,
and
all
of
that
is
in
preparation
for
our
inaugural
campaign,
scheduled
for
2023,
and
now
that
the
strategy
phase
is
completed,
we'll
move
into
the
campaign
development
phase,
all
right,
so
a
quick
level,
high
level
recap
of
what
we
accomplished
in
the
research
phase.
There
were
two
tasks,
an
opinion,
research
study
and
a
crash
profiles.
F
The
method
used
was
address-based
sampling,
which
is
different
than
outreach
in
that
it
works
to
collect
a
random
sample
and
representative
sample
of
san
jose
residents.
So
for
a
population
san
jose
size,
we
were
aiming
for
a
sample
of
600
to
800
residents
or
respondents,
sorry
and
achieved
a
sample
size
of
800,
which
is
representative
of
the
city's
population
and
can
provide
a
statistically
significant
sample
with
an
overall
margin
of
error
of
plus
or
minus
3.5
percent.
F
The
sample,
then,
was
is
aligned
with
san
jose
demographic
data
by
gender
age,
race,
ethnicity.
These
roughly
follow
census
numbers
for
the
categories
that
are
shown
here
and
respondents
are
from
these
city
regions
in
order
that
the
baseline
is
also
representative
of
opinions
geographically
in
street
safety
scenarios.
Of
course,
different
issues
affect
different
regions
and
people
differently.
F
F
F
Overall,
we
learned
residents
do
have
concerns
about
road
safety,
especially
around
major
roadways.
The
safety
concerns
that
came
up
most
were
distracted,
driving,
red
light
running
and
speeding,
and
then
71
percent
agree
that
speeding
is
a
leading
cause.
Oh
sorry,
but
most
san
jose
residents
are
open
to
making
safety
improvements
for
pedestrians
and
bikeless
bicyclists.
Even
if
it
presents
some
inconvenience
for
cars,
I
think
we
just
heard
about
that.
F
Let's
go
fully
all
right.
These
insights
help
shape
our
vision,
zero
communications,
of
course,
and
they
serve
as
a
baseline
to
measure
us
measure
against.
As
we
begin
to
educate
and
encourage
safer
traffic
behaviors,
we
also
wanted
to
look
at
crash
instances
on
the
streets.
So
at
the
same
time,
the
survey
was
being
administered.
Our
partner,
farron
piers
analyzed
the
past
six
years
of
crash
data
2016
to
2021
to
provide
our
second
research
piece,
the
san
jose
city
crash
profiles.
F
F
Speeding
was
the
most
common
factor
in
crashes
where
people
were
killed
or
severely
injured,
which,
as
jesse
described
shown
as
ksi
here
so
what's
notable
also
about
these
is
that
speeding
is
a
top
violation
for
every
one
of
the
top
crash
profiles
identified
by
farron
pearce
I've.
Just
given
you
a
very
high
level
overview
of
both
of
our
research
phases
but
the
full.
There
are
full
reports
for
both
which
you
can
request
from
mla.
F
B
F
B
F
F
We
convened
an
issue
selection
workshop
with
the
vision,
zero
team.
At
that
time,
we
introduced
six
criteria
to
help
inform
the
process
and
ensure
that
we're
grounding
our
work
and
data
and
confirm
that
we're
layering
communications
with
other
efforts
by
the
city
all
right.
So
what
are
the
factors?
One?
We
want
to
make
sure
the
issue
we
choose
is
prevalent,
so
the
work
has
impact.
We
want
to
start
with
the
most
common
unsafe
driving
behaviors
public
perception
is
also
key,
because
people
are
more
likely
to
engage
with
issues.
They
recognize.
F
San
jose,
as
you've
heard
today
very
much,
is
committed
to
quick,
builds
and
other
long-term
engineering
interventions
for
safer
streets.
So
the
more
we
can
leverage
those
the
better
where
engine
where
unsafe
behaviors
are
also
illegal.
Incitable.
Adding
an
enforcement
angle
can
be
powerful
assist
to
communications.
F
Finally,
whatever
campaign
we
pursue
measurement
lets
us
know
the
value
effectiveness
and
reach
we've
achieved
in
the
cities,
many
communities
and
neighborhoods
all
right.
What
emerged
unsafe
speeds
were
you
about
that
now
so
for
prevalence.
Yes,
speeding
is
the
primary
crash
factor
in
injury
and
fatality
crashes
found
in
fear
and
peers
crash
profiles.
F
It's
true
that
unsafe
speeds
leave
to
lead
to
other
unsafe
behaviors
like
red
light
running
and
speed
importantly
increases
the
likelihood
that
someone
would
be
killed
or
severely
injured
in
a
crash
on
perception.
As
I
noted
earlier,
71
percent
of
respondents
in
our
quantitative
baselines
strongly
agreed
that
speeding
is
the
leading
cause
of
traffic
collisions
in
san
jose
and
we
also
see
speeding
or
incidences
of
unsafe
speeds
in
the
news,
often
as
a
key
factor
in
a
traffic
death.
F
And
finally,
speeding
is
really
easy
to
recognize.
It's
an
identifiable
driving
behavior
now
to
layering
san
jose
is
working
on
traffic
engineering.
Engine
initiatives,
excuse
me
downtown
and
in
other
neighborhoods
and,
of
course,
on
priority
safety
corridors.
Where
cities
committed
to
two
miles
of
quick
builds
annually.
Oops,
I'm
going
to
tell
you
more
about
engineering.
B
F
F
F
F
F
D
L
Yes-
and
I
thank
you,
council
member
perales
good
morning-
everyone,
my
name
is
tatwin.
I
am
an
associate
transportation,
specialist,
managing
and
analyzing
our
data
in
the
vision,
zero
team.
Today,
I'm
going
to
present
a
preliminary
project
evaluation
for
central
quick
bill
improvements
from
tollywood
to
monterrey,
road.
L
L
L
L
we
did
community
engagement
in
2019
and
in
2020
under
the
new
vision,
zero
action
plan,
we
had
funds
to
build
a
recommendation
with
most
of
the
improved
improvement
from
turley
to
monterey,
including
a
late
reduction
from
sick
lanes
to
four
lanes.
So
this
segment
from
totally
to
monterey
is
also
the
focus
of
the
preliminary
project
evaluation
that
we
are
reporting
out
today.
L
L
L
Therefore,
we
compare
sigma
after
data
to
an
average
of
six
months
of
five
years
before
data
due
to
a
short
time
since
the
project
completion.
The
preliminary
evaluation
might
not
reflect
the
entire
story
of
the
project,
but
it
is
helpful
to
look
at
what
has
been
done,
what
works
but
need
more
improvements,
so
that
we
can
proactively
plan
for
the
next
step,
especially
with
a
lot
of
friends
coming
up
this
year.
We
will
update
this
study
when
we
have
a
full
year
of
data
next
slide.
L
The
image
on
this
slide
showed
the
before
condition
and
the
after
project
completion,
as
you
can
see,
because
the
road
was
so
wide
before
there
was
pay
for
speeding
and
unsafe
driving
behavior.
The
improvement
on
center
helped
remove
the
bottleneck
that
already
existed
and
create
a
consistent
two
lanes
with
less
merging
for
vehicles.
F
L
L
We
understand
that
sigmunds
is
a
small
data
size,
so
we
also
collected
feedback
from
the
communities
duty
staff
talked
to
more
than
200
people
at
10
location
in
november
2021
and
april
2022.
As
a
result,
nearly
all
people
walking
and
biking
of
all
ages
supported
the
improvement
on
center.
70
percent
of
drivers
supported
the
project.
15
express
concern
could
increase
traffic
and
12
percent
were
not
aware
of
the
improvement
next
slide.
L
Although
the
focus
of
the
presentation
is
for
the
segments
that
we
have
most
improvements,
including
a
lane
reduction
from
turley
to
monterey,
we
acknowledged
that
there
were
two
recent
fatalities
on
center,
not
of
turly
road.
These
fertility
happened
in
the
segments
that
didn't
have
a
lot
of
precious
and
fatality
before.
That
was
the
reason
why
center
from
story
tutorial
was
not
included
in
the
central
complexity
study
within
the
orange
segments
highlighted
on
the
map.
L
We
didn't
do
a
lot
at
capital
expressway,
but
now,
through
the
vision,
zero
task
force,
we
have
more
constant
work
relationship
with
county
roads
and
airports,
which
is
good.
Thank
you
for
the
task
force.
We
are
co-applying
for
a
federal
grant
with
the
recommendation
for
this
intersection
next
slide.
L
In
terms
of
the
next
steps
for
center
road,
we
recently
received
a
10
million
state
earmark
adjacent
mention
to
change
the
quick
view
to
permanent
improvements.
Although
it
is
exciting
to
get
this
state
earmark,
it
is
estimated
that
we
need
at
least
50
million
for
the
permanent
improvement
on
center.
L
Therefore,
I
mentioned
previously,
we
are
applying
with
the
county
for
centuries
for
all
grant
application.
The
proposed
improvement
include
implementing
protected
intersections,
removing
slip
ramps
at
capital,
expressways
and
monetary
growth,
and
we
might
also
add
new
signals,
and
that
brings
us
to
the
end
of
this
evaluation.
Thank
you
for
your
attention.
M
All
right,
thank
you,
hello,
mr
chair,
madam
vice
chair
and
members
of
the
vision,
zero
task
force.
My
name
is
kyle
wong,
I'm
a
transportation
specialist
with
the
department,
transportation,
local
projects
and
grants,
team
and
I'll
be
presenting
the
mclaughlin
avenue
and
white
road
preliminary
project
evaluations
next
slide.
M
The
mclaughlin
avenue
project
was
an
opportunity
to
increase
safety
and
prevent
injury
and
fatalities
by
decreasing
conflict
points
and
slowing
vehicle
speeds
and
increasing
pedestrian
visibility
along
the
roadways
to
help
fund
this
project,
the
city
of
san
jose,
applied
for
the
highway
safety
improvement
program
in
2015
and
was
awarded
2.5
million
dollars
towards
the
project
next
slide.
Please.
M
The
project
was
implemented
along
all
the
along
mclaughlin
avenue,
from
allsley
avenue
to
lupe
avenue
from
july
2020
to
november
2020,
as
seen
here
next
slide.
Please,
the
total
project
cost
5.3
million
dollars
for
around
2.6
miles
of
improvements,
including
new
street
lights,
flashing,
beacons,
bulb
outs,
median
islands
and
ada
ramps
throughout
and
for
this
evaluation
process,
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
police
crash
data
to
measure
changes
before
and
after
the
implementation
period.
M
This
eval
evaluation
used
one
year
of
injury
and
fatality
data
from
the
project
corridor
before
before,
after
before
data
reviewed
a
one-year
average
from
2015
to
2019
and
the
after
data
range
included
a
full
year
of
2021
data.
This
left
a
one
month,
travel
behavior
adjustment
period.
Subsequent
evaluations
will
include
a
full
one
year.
Adjustment
period.
M
Looking
at
the
data,
there
is
an
overall
decrease
in
injuries
for
all
modes,
as
shown
in
the
top
row,
for
each
category
broken
down
by
road
users.
We
can
we
see
an
increase
in
injury
and
ksi
averages
for
people
walking
and
biking
due
to
one
bike
collision,
one
pedestrian
clutch
involved
collision
at
the
tully
mclaughlin
intersection,
which
I
will
talk
about
in
the
next
slide.
When
looking
at
injuries
for
motor
vehicle
occupants
and
motorcycle
riders,
there
was
a
general
decrease
for
all
for
injuries,
ksi
and
fatalities.
M
M
M
These
collisions
included
one
bicycle
fatality
in
march
2021
involving
an
unsafe
turn
movement
at
the
total
intersection
and
one
walking
fatality
in
october
2021
involving
speeding
at
the
total
intersection
at
night.
Our
local
project
scene
will
be
starting
a
safety
project
along
court
along
the
tully
corridor.
That
will
be
including
a
high
visibility
crosswalk,
as
well
as
some
green
bike
striping
at
the
intersection,
and
this
project
is
entering
construction
in
2023.
M
next
slide.
Please,
this
polymer
preliminary
evaluation
of
the
mclaughlin
project
showed
a
general
decrease
in
injury
crashes.
Overall,
all
fatalities
within
this
data
collection
post
period
occurred
at
the
intersection
at
twili
road,
and
we
will
be
installing
some
striping
improvements
at
this
intersection
and
2023.
M
M
M
Next
slide,
please,
the
total
project
cost
was
1.3
million
for
the
two
capital
intersection
improvements
and
two
miles
worth
of
striping
the
intersection
improvements,
included,
flashing,
beacons
and
street
lights
at
pat
avenue
and
rose
avenue,
as
well
as
a
pedestrian
island
at
pat
avenue.
The
improvements
were
implemented
from
october
2020
to
may
2021
and
we'll
be
using
police
department
crash
data
as
well
for
this
evaluation
next
slide.
Please.
M
J
Thank
you
to
all
the
presenters
in
the
section
and
on
the
project,
evaluations
to
tao
and
kyle.
I
just
want
to
talk
a
little
briefly
about
sort
of
their
context.
The
first
time
we've
done
project
evaluations.
Recently,
we've
created
a
new
template
for
it.
The
scale
of
these
projects
are
quite
different.
J
Finally,
we
have
upcoming
evaluations
of
projects
that
are
more
recently
implemented
and
don't
yet
have
enough
after
data
or
are
not
complete
yet
so
then
don't
have
after
data,
but
some
of
the
ones
that
we
think
that
we'll
be
presenting
on
in
the
future
are
story.
Road,
hillsdale
avenue,
which
we
had
a
slide
about
earlier
in
this
presentation
and
branham
lane.
D
Thank
you
jesse,
and
thank
you
to
our
presenters
some
milestones.
I
think
that
we've
made
with
this
this
latest
presentation
both
on
obviously
our
focus,
which
I
think
no
surprise
right.
Speeding,
certainly
across
the
board.
We've
all
recognized
is
the
the
most
major
contributing
factor,
and
so
I'm
excited
about
that,
but
a
certain
milestone
and
then
also
on
the
reports
back
on.
Even
if
we're
only
looking
at
small
snapshots
six
months
nine
months,
you
know
maybe
a
year
at
most
right
now.
It's
really
important.
D
I
think,
to
continually
monitor
the
improvements
that
we
are
completing
and
then
see
you
know
both
the
quantitative
and
qualitative
data
on
on
on
how
it's
going
and-
and
also,
I
would
say,
I'll-
add
seeing
just
the
pictures.
Just
the
images
is.
You
can
tell
right
the
before
and
after
put
yourself
in
that
intersection
as
a
driver
or
pedestrian
wanting
to
cross
the
street,
and
it's
you
know,
it
is
blatantly
obvious
how
much
safer
these
intersections
are.
D
I
I
recall
living
near
the
in
the
sofa
district
near
market
and
william
street
when
a
an
enhanced
crosswalk
was
put
in
with
a
with
a
median
island.
There
and
in
the
flashing
beacons-
and
just
you
know
at
that
point-
I
had
a
young-
you
know
child
crossing
in
a
stroller
and
almost
every
time
before
that
was
input
cars.
You
know
dozens
of
cars
would
drive
by
before,
even
recognizing
somebody
with
a
stroller
after
that
was
put
in.
D
G
D
E
Thank
you.
I
just
thank
you
sergeant
for
that
report.
I
appreciate
getting
the
updated
numbers
on
that
or
is
it
lieutenant
and
I
just
dropped
you
down
a
rank.
I
apologize
if
that's
the
case,
so
I
just
had
a
question.
I'm
really
excited
to
see
the
campaign
issue
be
selected
and
going
forward.
I
had
a
question
about
the
focus
groups
rebecca.
E
F
H
Yes,
thank
you
rebecca
and
sorry,
I'm
not
on
camera,
I'm
outdoors
so
I'll
just
stay
here.
Hopefully
you
all
can
hear
me.
Okay,
thank
you
for
the
question.
Focus
groups
are
really
a
qualitative
research
tool
where
we're
it's
different
from
a
public
engagement
meeting
where
we
want
lots
of
people
to
come,
who
are
super
engaged.
Rather,
we
specifically
are
recruiting
members
of
the
public,
essentially
at
random
they're,
not
sourced
from
any
list
of
people
that
are
interested
in
this
topic.
H
Rather
they
are
drivers
in
san
jose
that
meet
the
criteria
for
the
recruit,
which
were
fairly
loose
criteria.
Essentially
looking
for
people
who
were
willing
to
admit
some
level
of,
I
might
not
be
the
best
most
responsible
driver
that
always
goes
under
the
speed
limit,
really
based
on
the
quantitative
research.
H
We
identified
there's
a
group
that
are
sort
of
going
to
be
very
closed
off
to
a
conversation
about
speeding
and
behavior
change,
and
we
thought
that
they
in
a
focus
group
might
be
a
little
bit
derailing
of
the
discussion
about
materials
and
messages,
and
so
we're
really
recruiting
people
who
have
an
an
open
mind
and
a
willingness
to
consider
their
behavior
so
that
the
recruits
come
from
essentially
random
lists
of
residents.
As
rebecca
mentioned,
we're
doing
two
in
english.
H
Those
are
split
one
with
men
and
one
with
women,
and
then
we're
doing
one
in
vietnamese
and
one
in
spanish
and
each
group
is
recruited
to
include
a
diversity
of
residents
that
meet
those
criteria
with
respect
to
demographics,
age,
ethnicity,
to
the
degree
possible
in
the
english
groups,
geography
within
the
city,
so
making
sure
we
represent
various
areas.
So
these
aren't
the
kinds
of
things
that
we
are
opening
invitations
to
the
public
or
to
interested
parties.
H
Rather
it's
intentionally
people
who
this
isn't
the
thing
they
think
about
every
day
and
we're
bringing
them
in
to
show
them
some
of
these
materials
and
get
their
reaction
and
understand.
You
know.
Does
this
get
the
attention
we're
looking
for?
Does
this
open
people's
minds?
I
hope
that
answers
your
question.
E
It
does
and
sarah,
maybe
I
can
dig
into
that
a
little
bit
so
you're
looking
for
people
who
you
can
work
on
message
messaging
that
might
be
successful
in
altering
behavior.
Is
that
what
you're
you're
looking
for
or
what
is
that?
What
these
focus
groups
will
be
designed
on
is
coming
up
with
words
and
strategies
on
things
that
will
be
that
resonate
with
them.
That
will
allow
them
to
or
make
them
think
about
changing
their
behavior.
Is
that
how
you
approach
this
yeah.
H
We
did
extensive
quantitative
survey
where
we
were
able
to
quantify
a
lot
of
attitudes
from
residents
in
san
jose,
and
so
this
is
really
kind
of
looking
more
in
depth
at
some
of
those
attitudes,
but
also
putting
in
front
of
them
some
visuals
some
phrases
that
might
be
part
of
the
eventual
campaign
itself
to
get
their
reaction.
And
you
know
it's
very
hard
to
get
someone
to
say.
Oh,
I
see
that
I
will
change
my
behavior,
so
really.
H
So
it's
it's
not
asking
them
to
change
their
behavior
because
mostly
you'll
get
no.
I
will
never,
but
really
it's
about
understanding
the
impact
these
images
can
have
and
more
discussion
about.
Speeding
can
have
on
how
they
talk
about
it,
their
level
of
concern
and
their
sort
of
emotional
relationship
to
the
issue.
E
That's
really
good
information.
I
look
for
the
next
report
that
we
give
and
I
will
just
add
that
I
hope
that
we're
talking
to
or
that
some
of
the
people
on
the
focus
group
will
be
parents
who
are
driving
their
kids
to
schools,
because
that's
where
we
see
a
lot
of
dangerous
behavior,
as
parents
run
late
to
get
to
dropping
their
kids
off,
dropping
their
kids
off
speeding
down
the
neighborhoods
as
they
try
to
get
to
school.
E
So
it
dawns
on
me
now
that
school
is
in
session
for
a
couple
of
weeks
that
we
need
to
really
make
sure
that
we
get
parents
involved
in
the
this.
This
notion
that
we
need
to
change
behavior
and
be
more
cautious
about
driving.
But
thank
you
for
that.
That's
really
good
information.
I
look
forward
to
the
the
next
report
at
our
next
task
force
meeting.
D
D
We'll
move
down
to
our
announcement
section
and
we'll
do
quick
announcements
before
we
go
over
to
public
comment,
and
I
have
one
announcement
and
then,
if
anybody
has
an
announcement
on
the
task
force,
you
can
raise
your
hand
today
in
front
of
city
hall.
The
rotunda,
in
our
plaza
my
office,
along
with
the
united
lowrider
council
of
san
jose,
will
be
hosting
a
celebration
celebrating
the
repeal
of
our
no
cruising
ordinance
and
there
will
be
over
likely
over
200.
D
We
have
almost
200
official
lowriders
in
the
in
the
program,
but
we
we
expect
a
lot
more
parked
throughout
the
downtown
core,
but
we'll
be
celebrating
that
starting
at
4
p.m.
Today,
4
to
8
p.m.
So
if
you're
in
and
around
city
hall
come
by
and
take
a
look,
it'll
be
a
historic
event
for
city
city
hall,
it'll,
be
our
first
official
car
show
there
any
other
announcements,
not
seeing
any
okay.
D
Like
for
you
to
address
the
full
task
force
and
request
to
engage
with
the
chair,
the
co-chair
task
force
members
individually
will
not
be
honored.
Abusive
language
is
inappropriate.
A
repeated
failure
to
comply
with
the
code
of
contact
which
will
disturb
disrupt
or
impede
the
orderly
conduct
of
the
meeting
may
result
in
removal
from
the
meeting
and
for
those
that
have
not
participated
in
a
zoo
meeting
with
us.
N
Good
morning
vision,
zero
representatives,
I
appreciate
being
able
to
speak
with
you
today.
My
name
is
mary
lou
avenzino
and
I
am
car
free.
I
use
my
bicycle
for
transportation.
I'm.
I
would
like
to
address
the
answer
that
mr
vu
from
dot
gave
the
councilwoman
foley
regarding
why
bike
lanes
on
some
parts
of
the
bike
lane
on
hillsdale
is
sandwiched
between
the
curb
and
parked
cars.
Mr
vu
spoke
as
if
this
was
a
good
design.
N
This
design
is
has
been
built
on
lean
avenue.
New
lean
avenue
between
blossom
hill
and
v
and
also
on
vista
park,
drive
near
communication
hill.
I
found
this
design
not
underlying
not
to
be
successful,
and
here
are
four
reasons
why
it
traps
the
bicyclists
in
a
narrow
channel
between
the
curb
and
the
passenger
side
of
parked
cars,
giving
the
bicyclists
not
a
quick
way
that
they
can
exit
if
they
come,
become,
come
upon
trash
or
glass
or
a
passenger
car
door.
Opening
number
two:
the
city
does
not
keep
this
narrow
bike.

They
promise
a
manual
cleaning,
but
sometimes
that
manual
cleaning
doesn't
happen.
Third
cars
parked
in
the
spike
lane
on
cars
parked
in
this
bike
lane
on
edenvale
because
edenville
no,
it's
on
lean
cars
park
in
the
spike
lane
on
lean
avenue,
because
there
are
so
many
cars
that
use
street
parking,
and
here
are
placards
that.
I
have
that.
I
keep
stocked
on
my
bicycle,
to
put
on
their
windshields
to
ask
them
to
please
keep
the
bike
lane
clean.

Gail
hi
good
morning,
everybody
what
a
wonderful
meeting
a
lot
of
good
work
is
happening.
Thank
you
so
much,
I'm
gail
osmer
with
source
wise
advisory
committee,
I'm
on
the
trans
subcommittee
of
transportation,
and
I
have
a
couple
questions
number
one
I
was
wondering:
can
outside
groups
like
source-wise
support
and
write,
a
letter
of
you
know,
write
support
this
and
write
the
letter
of
support
or
the
grant.
C

Hi
blair
beekman
here
thanks
for
the
meeting
today,
I
really
liked
the
public
comments.
Today
I
haven't
heard
the
first
public
comment:
mentor
speak
before
she
had
some
really
interesting
good
ideas.
I
hope
she
can
return
to
the
public
comment
space.
Thank
you
for
her
words.
The
second
public
comment
comment
are
very
nicely
brought
up.
A
As
we
talk
about
our
statistics,
I
feel
you
know
it's
skewing
how
to
talk
about
the
grant
issues
as
much
as
we
need
the
grant
issues.
We
have
to
be
honest
with
those
statistics
with
each
other,
and
I
I
I
just
can't
emphasize
that
enough
over
the
next
few
years
until
this
evens
itself
out,
we
just
have
to
be
honest
about
it,
and
good
luck
in
those
efforts
to
do
that
and
clarify
ourselves.
A
As
we
talk
about
statistics
use
and
with
that
said,
really
a
good
luck
in
my
love
of
openness
and
accountability
with
surveillance,
technology
and
data
collection,
I
think
it
can
really
help
organize
how
you
have
to
make
decisions
about
vision,
zero
policies
and
that
san
jose
is
making
some
good
strides
in
those
efforts
with
equity
ideas
of
data
collection
keep
up
the
good
work.
Thank
you.
G
G
Now
I
hear
what
you
say
about
how
there
are
lots
of
driveways,
and
you
know
you
have.
According
to
the
design
standard,
we
have
to
have
an
exposed
back
then,
where
there's
a
lot
of
cross
traffic
in
the
driveways,
but
the
dutch
have
figured
out
how
to
do
this.
They
can
have
parking
protected
bike
lanes
even
with
multiple
driveways,
so
I
recommend
reaching
out
to
the
dutch
cycling
embassy
to
figure
out
how
they
figured
that
problem
out.
The
second
point
I
want
to
talk
about
is
the
pedestrian
fatalities.
G
There
was
a
bit
of
research
done
recently
by
the
insurance
institute
for
highway
safety,
concerning
the
prevalence
of
trucks
and
suvs
and
ksi
crashes,
and
how
they're
substantially
more
likely
to
kill
pedestrians
than
a
sedan.
These
vehicles
are
getting
bigger,
they're
getting
heavier.
The
hoods
are
24
percent
taller
than
they
were
in
2000.
The
air
pillars
are
a
lot
thicker
because
of
the
heavy
roof.
The
visibility
is
atrocious
out
of
these
vehicles
and
they're
just
killing
people
left
right
and
center.
G
G
I
think
that
would
be
a
bit
more
informative
and
as
for
what
measures
we
could
take,
you
know
we
could
probably
feed
our
findings
up
to
state
level,
and
we
can
do
they
can
do
something
at
state
level
like
a
higher
registration
v
by
vehicle
weight
or
something
like
that
and
as
for
san
jose
ourselves,
maybe
we
could
do
something
like
narrow
the
parking
stalls
but
height
limits
in
the
city,
parking
lots
and
so
on.
Try
to
make
these
vehicles
unwelcome
in
the
city,
great
presentations,
everyone.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
C
Yes,
hello
and
thank
you
for
the
wonderful
presentations
this
morning.
My
name
is
sophie
horiucci
forester.
I
am
the
regional
director
for
aarp
california,
in
san
jose
office,
and
I
wanted
to
add
to
joe
glenn's
comments
that
arp
is
here
to
help
offer
some
support
and
outreach
to
our
members
and
to
the
public
in
any
of
the
public
outreach
efforts
that
you
would
like
to
engage
in
educating
community
about
what
is
happening
and
understanding
what
we
can
do
to
improve
traffic
safety.
C
We
do
look
at
our
social
change
agenda,
it's
creating
livable
communities
for
all
ages
and
to
the
comments
made
by
our
chair
and
co-chair
about
extending
the
time
at
crosswalks
for
older
adults,
but
also
for
folks.
Anybody
who
needs
to
cross
the
street
with
a
stroller,
a
walker,
a
wheelchair,
it's
all
very
important
and
very
needed,
so
appreciate
the
reports.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
Great,
thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
to
our
public
speakers
for
participating
in
joining
us
today
and
thank
you
anna
for
running
that,
okay,
we're
going
to
go
back
now.
To
conclude,
oh,
I
did
see
janet
leblanc
put
her
hand
up
at
the
end
there
we
can
go
back
to
gina
and
then
we'll
we'll
close
out
public
comments.
Sure.
B
I
Yes,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
we
can
hi.
I
wasn't
sure
I
was
going
to
talk,
but
I
think
you
need
to
hear
from
at
least
one
person.
Who's
lost
a
loved
one,
and
so
I
also
want
to
agree
with
all
the
other
public
speakers
that
you
know.
Thank
you
for
your
work
and
I
appreciate
seeing
the
follow-up
and
the
surveys
afterwards
to
see
that
there's
an
improvement.
I
I
think
it's
really
important.
So
for
anyone
who
doesn't
know
me,
my
son,
kyle
leblanc,
was
killed
on.
He
was
a
pedestrian
killed
on
curtner
avenue
by
a
very
large
truck,
and
I
appreciate
the
last
caller
bringing
up
trucks
because
there's
a
lot
of
data
about
how
large
trucks
are
causing
more
fatalities
for
pedestrians.
I
I
appreciate
the
work
you're
doing
and
I'm
sorry,
but
it
will
never
be
fast
enough
for
me
because
I
know
the
government
works
slow,
but
I
just
want
to
encourage
all
of
you
and
light
a
fire
under
you
to
keep
going,
keep
ask
getting
more
money,
keep
working
on
more
streets.
I
would
love
if
the
ksi's,
if
that
was
more
frequent,
we
looked
at
then
five
years.
That
feels
like
a
long
time.
I
D
Okay.
That
will
conclude
our
meeting
for
today.
Thank
you,
everybody
for
being
here
and
engaging
in
discussion
with
us
as
we
move
forward
with
the
task
force,
we're
going
to
continue
to
encourage
your
participation
from
all
members.
We
will
have
one
more
meeting
in
this
calendar
year
november.
30Th
save
the
date
you'll
be
given
a
short
survey
following
the
meeting,
as
we
always
do.
If
you
can
kindly
fill
that
out,
it
would
be
appreciated.
