CityCouncil | 2021-03-30 | 16 | Councilmember Daysog stated that he would be disappointed in Council if there not be three votes for the matter; the recommendation should be a no-brainer; the rest of Webster Street has been waiting quite a while; expressed support for the Cross-Alameda Trail and Jean Sweeney Park; questioned how to counter-balance the many liquor stores of the area with beautification that is welcoming. Vice Mayor Vella stated it is one thing to look through an equity lens; questioned the importance of transit equity and ensuring safe, multimodal access; hardscapes are being worked on; the beautification portion follows the hardscaping; hardscaping and safe street design must be complete and landscape follows; expressed concern about jumping the gun on the matter and spending money planting trees at intersections that might need other things; her intent is not to say the City should not make Webster Street as nice looking as possible, it is to say there is a clear and laid out process that takes into account a number of different things. On the call for the question, the motion failed by the following roll call vote: Councilmember Daysog: Aye; Herrera Spencer: Aye; Knox White: No; Vella: No; and Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft: No. Ayes: 2. Noes: 3. (21-193) Consider Directing Staff to Review an "Adopt a Spot" Traffic Triangle, Traffic Circle and Traffic Corners Program.
