This issue should be revised in Spring 2009 before commitments are made for CDI representation. Chair Lord-Hausman responded that the other Crab Cove dates were successful with good turn out and response to the CDI table. Chair Lord-Hausman stated that the CDI can discuss other choices, however the focus should remain on City events such as Earth Day, Park Street Festival, as an example. Secretary Akil stated that since the adoption of the ADA Transition Plan update, there has been an increase in visiting the current webpage for reference. Once the ADA/CDI webpage is up and running, there will be more exposure for the CDI. 4. Chair Lord-Hausman distributed copies of highlights of the Federal Disability Programs provided by the GAO office. It provides information on how coordination could facilitate better data collection to assess the status of people with disabilities. Commissioner Berger asked that with the national elections coming up, what could the CDI do to ensure total accessibility for those with disabilities, to which Chair Lord-Hausman responded that she could check with Mastick Senior Center. Commissioner Kreitz suggessted to check with the Registrar of Voters. Commissioner Longley-Cook stated that because this is an important election year, there would be a more active response by people, in general. 5. Chair Lord-Hausman read a travel article which advised that when individuals with disabilities reserve hotel rooms, they should use the word "blocked," instead of "guarantee" as often times rooms for the disabled are not honored when requested. 6.

PlanningBoard/2008-08-25.pdf,4 | PlanningBoard | 2008-08-25 | 4 | President Kohlstrand noted that the Transportation Commissioners' intent was trying to draft these documents so they would be more in sync regarding the movement of vehicles, as well as recognizing the need for buses circulating in the City and the need for every street to be pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly. Board member Lynch noted that on his street, parking was allowed right up to the intersection. He noted that children walked across the street from Lydecker Park are not visible because of that parking arrangement, and that it was a quality of life issue. He inquired whether such issues should be included in the plan. Board member Ezzy Ashcraft commended the authors of this report, as well as the public for their comments. She noted that Alameda was growing like every other Bay Area city, and that it cannot remain frozen in time, but she did not believe the small-town character and quality of life should be sacrificed. She noted that the roads did not belong to one particular transportation mode. She had some concerns about significant decreasing levels of service at some intersections. She noted that when an accident occurred in the Tube heading out of town, traffic throughout Alameda backed up. She noted that on page 4 of the Transportation Element Update, Objective 4.1.4 addressed proactive citizen involvement, particularly maintaining a public forum such as the Transportation Commission to facilitate public involvement. She suggested creating a citizen input website so they would not have to wait for the next public meeting. She noted that more off-street bicycle parking was needed, and parking lots should be striped to allow that. Commissioner Krueger expressed concern with page 2.0-3 of the EIR summary, regarding Impact 4.2.1, which discussed traffic delay and the level of service. It stated that there was no feasible mitigation available, thus the resulting level of significance was significant and unavoidable. He was very surprised by that statement, and that the Transportation Commission discussed u… | PlanningBoard/2008-08-25.pdf |
