TransportationCommission | 2012-06-27 | 5 | Staff Khan stated that the Commission's action would be to either accept or reject staff's recommendation to move the project towards the construction phase and then to vote to prioritize the following two items: Central Avenue and Webster Street crosswalk and Pacific Avenue and Webster Street traffic signal. Commissioner Miley made a motion to accept staff's recommendation to allow the project to move to the construction phase and to prioritize the Central Avenue and Webster Street crosswalk and the Pacific Avenue and Webster Street traffic signal. Commissioner Bellows seconded the motion. The motion was approved 4-0. 4C. Proposed Shoreline Drive/Westline Drive Bike Lane Project Community Meeting Update Staff Payne presented the staff report. Commissioner Bertken asked Staff Payne if the Commission saw the grant application to Caltrans. Staff Payne replied that she could provide it to him if he was interested. Commissioner Bertken replied that since it was the basis of where they received the money, it would be interesting to see it. Staff Payne replied that one of the seven variations is the Caltrans grant application placeholder and the Commission will see the variation tomorrow night along with the other six project concept ideas. Commissioner Moehring asked whether staff had a breakdown of attendees' residences and what were the pros and cons. She wanted to see a break down of people who live right along Shoreline Drive. Staff Payne replied that staff did not ask attendees where they lived, but she knew how staff reached out to attendees. They conducted an outreach encompassing a 300-foot radius around Westline and Shoreline Drives. Thus, an estimated 15,000 people were informed and that included the condominium and apartment units. Also, Bike Alameda reached out to bicyclists, and the Public Works Department issued a press release and placed barricades in the neighborhood. Commissioner Moehring said that staff did a great job reaching out to residents and she was curious about the statistics of the attendees because in addition to all users of the road giving input the residents also should participate.
