Councilmember Daysog stated that he pulled the item to ensure clarification for the public; four options are being reviewed. The Planning, Building and Transportation Director stated each option will be discussed in detail; a decision will be made once the preferred option is identified. Councilmember Daysog stated the City is moving ahead with projects along Central and Encinal Avenues in a way that does not align with the Transportation Element; comprehensive modification of the General Plan is needed to see how projects fit in to the updated General Plan; a robust conversation involving the public should occur. Vice Mayor Knox White stated staff has engaged the community, Boards and Commissions as well as Council in a great way; requested staff bring back the option that is determined most safe, and allows the best opportunity for mode shift and greenhouse gas reductions. Councilmember Oddie inquired the time-frame of when the item will return to Council. The Planning, Building and Transportation Director responded Central Avenue has taken longer due to its status of being a State highway; a comprehensive report on the project will return at either the April 16th or May 7th Council meeting ; the goal is to return to Council by the end of the year to make recommendations and final decisions. Councilmember Daysog moved approval of the staff recommendation. Councilmember Vella seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
