TransportationCommission | 2006-09-27 | 8 | Commissioner Knoth moved that bike lanes be considered for Park Street as a connector to the 15 foot bike/ped path going to the center as a mitigation for the impacts of the project. Commissioner Krueger seconded. Motion approved, 5-1 (Ratto). Commissioner Krueger moved that as a mitigation for the increased intensity of the project, that the sidewalk on the west side of Park Street be widened to at least 5 feet. Commissioner Knoth seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Commissioner Krueger moved that there be sidewalks on both sides of every road within the center, and that the intersections of the parking lot and locations where sidewalks cross multiple entries into the parking spaces be separated by raised crosswalks. Commissioner Schatmeier seconded. Motion failed, 4-2. Commissioner Krueger moved that every internal roadway should have a continuous sidewalk on at least one side and there should be more sidewalks down the center of parking aisles for access for people getting out of their cars and walking to the center. Commissioner Schatmeier seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Staff Khan stated that this could be problematic, since Harsch may not own all of the property. Chair Knox White responded that in the past Harsch has managed to find ways to construct sidewalk on their property, so he suggested that they be asked to include these improvements. Commissioner Knoth moved that pedestrian safety mitigations be made on Whitehall Place because of the additional traffic traveling through this corridor and into the Target parking lot. Commissioner Ratto seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Commissioner Ratto moved that there should be more fully detailed explanation regarding the trip generation numbers. Commissioner Knoth seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Chair Knox White asked that this explanation be included in the EIR analysis. Staff Khan stated that if assumptions were used that resulted in larger trip generation numbers, that this would raise the parking estimates. Commissioner Ratto moved that the EIR look specifically at the impact of the project on the intersections of Park Street/Clinton, Park Street/San Jose and Park Street/Encinal. Commissioner Krueger seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Commissioner Krueger made a motion that a mitigation be made relating to the impact of traffic generated by the project on transit service. Commissioner Ratto seconded. Motion passed unanimously, 6-0. Chair Knox White stated he felt that we did not have a TDM plan.
