TransportationCommission | 2012-11-28 | 7 | year and they are around $400,000 short. She asked staff if they considered phasing as part of the project. Staff Payne replied staff should have the funding without seeking additional grants. A large number of monies would come from Measure B Bicycle/Pedestrian pass through and Vehicle Registration Fee pass through monies. Staff Naclerio replied that the City is looking to construct this project within the grant deadlines. Until the bids come in, the City will not know what funds are needed. The City recently received Vehicle Registration Fee monies. If used, then City would have to reduce its resurfacing project funding. Commissioner Schatmeier echoed the tremendous effort made by staff to pull all of the community's comments together. He spoke about a public comment regarding signage. He wondered whether the Commission would see appropriate wayfinding signage included in the project. Staff Naclerio said signage requested by tonight's speaker is not included in the project currently. Commissioner Schatmeier questioned the bus shelters on Webster Street and Park Street. He assumed that the shelters were funded and maintained by the business association. Staff Naclerio replied no. Commissioner Schatmeier asked if the City maintains the shelters. Staff Naclerio replied yes the City erected and maintains them. Commissioner Schatmeier stated that the bus shelters should be constantly maintained or they would detract from the project. Commissioner Vargas encouraged staff to find additional funds for the project. He considered safety as an important factor for the project as well as personal safety while riding a bike and the bicycles themselves. Commissioner Miley made a motion to approve staff recommendations. Commissioner Bellows seconded the motion. The motion was approved 5-0. Page 7 of 15 | TransportationCommission/2012-11-28.pdf |
