I think we all know what a 00:15:27.004 --> 00:15:28.403 out. I think we all know what a seminal figure, uh, Doctor 00:15:28.405 --> 00:15:30.339 seminal figure, uh, Doctor Martin Luther King was. He was 00:15:30.341 --> 00:15:32.607 Martin Luther King was. He was a scholar, um, brilliant, but 00:15:32.609 --> 00:15:35.878 a scholar, um, brilliant, but also During some very dark 00:15:35.880 --> 00:15:37.746 also During some very dark times, uh, a light for the 00:15:37.748 --> 00:15:39.148 times, uh, a light for the entire world to see, and I 00:15:39.150 --> 00:15:41.617 entire world to see, and I think people forget, you know, 00:15:41.619 --> 00:15:43.485 think people forget, you know, many people put America into 00:15:43.487 --> 00:15:44.687 many people put America into two different time periods. 00:15:44.689 --> 00:15:47.089 two different time periods. There's the, the time when 00:15:47.091 --> 00:15:48.390 There's the, the time when America got their freedom, 00:15:48.392 --> 00:15:49.024 America got their freedom, Revolutionary War, and then 00:15:49.026 --> 00:15:50.325 Revolutionary War, and then there was a second revolution 00:15:50.327 --> 00:15:52.194 there was a second revolution and some people say that was a 00:15:52.196 --> 00:15:53.095 and some people say that was a civil rights movement that 00:15:53.097 --> 00:15:54.229 civil rights movement that Martin Luther King was able to 00:15:54.231 --> 00:15:55.697 Martin Luther King was able to bring about. And I think it's 00:15:55.699 --> 00:15:57.032 bring about. And I think it's difficult for people to 00:15:57.034 --> 00:15:59.001 difficult for people to understand what that means, um. 00:15:59.003 --> 00:16:00.702 understand what that means, um. You know, for many folks in my 00:16:00.704 --> 00:16:02.104 You know, for many folks in my family who live down south, I 00:16:02.106 --> 00:16:03.539 family who live down south, I always tell folks my 00:16:03.541 --> 00:16:04.573 always tell folks my grandfather moved from Chicago 00:16:04.575 --> 00:16:05.941 grandfather moved from Chicago because he witnessed the 00:16:05.943 --> 00:16:07.376 because he witnessed the lynching. The civil rights 00:16:07.378 --> 00:16:08.177 lynching. The civil rights movement wasn't just about laws, 00:16:08.179 --> 00:16:09.044 movement wasn't just about laws, even though that was a big part 00:16:09.046 --> 00:16:10.980 even though that was a big part of it. It was also about the 00:16:10.982 --> 00:16:12.447 of it. It was also about the terror that people lived with 00:16:12.449 --> 00:16:14.049 terror that people lived with down south. You couldn't cross 00:16:14.051 --> 00:16:14.850 down south. You couldn't cross the street and look certain 00:16:14.852 --> 00:16:16.585 the street and look certain people's eye if you were 00:16:16.587 --> 00:16:17.186 people's eye if you were African American, without 00:16:17.188 --> 00:16:18.520 African American, without fearing that somebody would try 00:16:18.522 --> 00:16:20.189 fearing that somebody would try to kill you or lynch you or 00:16:20.191 --> 00:16:21.423 to kill you or lynch you or harm you or go after your 00:16:21.425 --> 00:16:22.991 harm you or go after your family or do something to your 00:16:22.993 --> 00:16:24.393 family or do something to your family, and so the ability to 00:16:24.395 --> 00:16:25.794 family, and so the ability to have the bravery to take on 00:16:25.796 --> 00:16:28.330 have the bravery to take on that violence. To not only 00:16:28.332 --> 00:16:30.131 that violence. To not only change the laws, but to a 00:16:30.133 --> 00:16:31.734 change the laws, but to a change of culture that brought 00:16:31.736 --> 00:16:32.667 change of culture that brought so much violence to a people 00:16:32.669 --> 00:16:36.471 so much violence to a people who had been here from day one. 00:16:36.473 --> 00:16:38.273 who had been here from day one. I think that partially sums up 00:16:38.275 --> 00:16:40.542 I think that partially sums up what he was against, uh, what 00:16:40.544 --> 00:16:42.244 what he was against, uh, what the civil rights, uh, founders 00:16:42.246 --> 00:16:43.412 the civil rights, uh, founders and those movements were 00:16:43.414 --> 00:16:44.547 and those movements were against, and so I think he 00:16:44.549 --> 00:16:45.681 against, and so I think he deserves all the credit in the 00:16:45.683 --> 00:16:47.082 deserves all the credit in the world for what he did because 00:16:47.084 --> 00:16:50.953 world for what he did because it took an an incredible amount 00:16:50.955 --> 00:16:52.287 it took an an incredible amount of bravery that does not take 00:16:52.289 --> 00:16:53.822 of bravery that does not take away from the countless men and 00:16:53.824 --> 00:16:55.424 away from the countless men and women who supported him and 00:16:55.426 --> 00:16:56.091 women who supported him and helped him because he was a 00:16:56.093 --> 00:16:57.826 helped him because he was a leader and you can't lead 00:16:57.828 --> 00:16:59.094 leader and you can't lead without folks very much 00:16:59.096 --> 00:17:00.629 without folks very much supporting you. But at the end 00:17:00.631 --> 00:17:03.966 supporting you. But at the end of the day, he was the one that 00:17:03.968 --> 00:17:05.501 of the day, he was the one that was leading the charge he paid 00:17:05.503 --> 00:17:08.303 was leading the charge he paid with his life, uh, but he very 00:17:08.305 --> 00:17:09.038 with his life, uh, but he very much changed his country for 00:17:09.040 --> 00:17:11.440 much changed his country for the better and so I hope people 00:17:11.442 --> 00:17:12.641 the better and so I hope people recognize that it's not just a 00:17:12.643 --> 00:17:14.109 recognize that it's not just a day for a guy who made 00:17:14.111 --> 00:17:15.310 day for a guy who made wonderful speeches, who was 00:17:15.312 --> 00:17:17.112 wonderful speeches, who was brilliant, but it was someone 00:17:17.114 --> 00:17:19.881 brilliant, but it was someone who took on real violence and 00:17:19.883 --> 00:17:21.784 who took on real violence and real fear. And now, not 00:17:21.786 --> 00:17:22.984 real fear. And now, not everything is perfect within 00:17:22.986 --> 00:17:25.721 everything is perfect within this country, but people don't 00:17:25.723 --> 00:17:26.388 this country, but people don't experience that same level of 00:17:26.390 --> 00:17:30.993 experience that same level of just. stultifying uh fear that 00:17:30.995 --> 00:17:33.529 just. stultifying uh fear that many in my family experienced, 00:17:33.531 --> 00:17:35.497 many in my family experienced, uh, not long before I was born. 00:17:35.499 --> 00:17:36.599 uh, not long before I was born.

And so I think if people have 00:35:16.325 --> 00:35:17.525 And so I think if people have grievances, or if we have 00:35:17.527 --> 00:35:19.526 grievances, or if we have concerns in terms of how we're 00:35:19.528 --> 00:35:21.796 concerns in terms of how we're treating, we should, uh, first, 00:35:21.798 --> 00:35:23.531 treating, we should, uh, first, we should be checking ourselves 00:35:23.533 --> 00:35:25.265 we should be checking ourselves internally morally to make sure 00:35:25.267 --> 00:35:26.467 internally morally to make sure we're honoring that. But 00:35:26.469 --> 00:35:27.668 we're honoring that. But secondarily, we should be 00:35:27.670 --> 00:35:29.537 secondarily, we should be looking at this document to see 00:35:29.539 --> 00:35:31.072 looking at this document to see where this comes into play and 00:35:31.074 --> 00:35:32.273 where this comes into play and how it kind of informs us in 00:35:32.275 --> 00:35:33.941 how it kind of informs us in terms of how we should. be 00:35:33.943 --> 00:35:36.877 terms of how we should. be conducting ourselves. It has, 00:35:36.879 --> 00:35:38.212 conducting ourselves. It has, uh, it was created out of kind 00:35:38.214 --> 00:35:39.346 uh, it was created out of kind of some strife before even any 00:35:39.348 --> 00:35:42.216 of some strife before even any of us were on the council, uh, 00:35:42.218 --> 00:35:43.684 of us were on the council, uh, and it's grown stronger through 00:35:43.686 --> 00:35:46.020 and it's grown stronger through that, uh, and so I think We 00:35:46.022 --> 00:35:47.221 that, uh, and so I think We need to hew closely to this and 00:35:47.223 --> 00:35:49.090 need to hew closely to this and make sure that we're honoring 00:35:49.092 --> 00:35:53.561 make sure that we're honoring this particular document. All 00:35:53.563 --> 00:35:58.032 this particular document. All right, next we have I, let's 00:35:58.034 --> 00:36:03.304 right, next we have I, let's see. 7.4 to consider bike lanes 00:36:03.306 --> 00:36:05.106 see. 7.4 to consider bike lanes and parking restrictions on 00:36:05.108 --> 00:36:07.908 and parking restrictions on 101st Avenue, uh, Zane Avenue 00:36:07.910 --> 00:36:10.244 101st Avenue, uh, Zane Avenue to Falgo Parkway, we have Fall 00:36:10.246 --> 00:36:11.979 to Falgo Parkway, we have Fall Gold Parkway and we have Mark 00:36:11.981 --> 00:36:14.115 Gold Parkway and we have Mark Culver, city engineer.

Uh, 00:36:18.954 --> 00:36:20.755 make a quick presentation. Uh, there are more slides here than 00:36:20.757 --> 00:36:22.857 there are more slides here than uh I am actually going to uh 00:36:22.859 --> 00:36:25.126 uh I am actually going to uh spend much time on, so, uh, I 00:36:25.128 --> 00:36:26.994 spend much time on, so, uh, I will go through them relatively 00:36:26.996 --> 00:36:28.229 will go through them relatively quickly once we get to the 00:36:28.231 --> 00:36:30.498 quickly once we get to the layouts, but um, Before you 00:36:30.500 --> 00:36:31.799 layouts, but um, Before you tonight it's just consideration 00:36:31.801 --> 00:36:34.401 tonight it's just consideration of, uh, not only adding bike 00:36:34.403 --> 00:36:37.472 of, uh, not only adding bike lanes to 101st Avenue, but also 00:36:37.474 --> 00:36:39.406 lanes to 101st Avenue, but also restricting parking on, uh, a 00:36:39.408 --> 00:36:40.341 restricting parking on, uh, a portion of 101st Avenue to 00:36:40.343 --> 00:36:43.010 portion of 101st Avenue to support the bike lane. So just 00:36:43.012 --> 00:36:44.879 support the bike lane. So just very quickly, why are we here 00:36:44.881 --> 00:36:46.881 very quickly, why are we here and why now, um, as a part of 00:36:46.883 --> 00:36:49.150 and why now, um, as a part of the city's, uh, annual payment 00:36:49.152 --> 00:36:51.619 the city's, uh, annual payment management program, we are 00:36:51.621 --> 00:36:53.954 management program, we are repaving 101st Avenue from Zane 00:36:53.956 --> 00:36:56.957 repaving 101st Avenue from Zane Avenue, uh, past the fall gold 00:36:56.959 --> 00:36:58.893 Avenue, uh, past the fall gold actually, but, uh, a good chunk 00:36:58.895 --> 00:37:00.361 actually, but, uh, a good chunk of 101st Avenue, and when we do 00:37:00.363 --> 00:37:03.764 of 101st Avenue, and when we do that, we do look at what other 00:37:03.766 --> 00:37:05.633 that, we do look at what other improvements we can and should 00:37:05.635 --> 00:37:07.702 improvements we can and should make to the roadway while we're 00:37:07.704 --> 00:37:10.771 make to the roadway while we're there, um, we're not making any 00:37:10.773 --> 00:37:11.239 there, um, we're not making any extensive changes to the 00:37:11.241 --> 00:37:13.441 extensive changes to the roadway, but we have. an 00:37:13.443 --> 00:37:15.209 roadway, but we have. an opportunity to implement some 00:37:15.211 --> 00:37:16.711 opportunity to implement some of the recommendations of the 00:37:16.713 --> 00:37:18.379 of the recommendations of the cities, uh, pedestrian and bike 00:37:18.381 --> 00:37:20.581 cities, uh, pedestrian and bike plan, which was adopted in 2015. 00:37:20.583 --> 00:37:22.016 plan, which was adopted in 2015. And as we look at that, and 00:37:22.018 --> 00:37:24.451 And as we look at that, and this is an excerpt from the map 00:37:24.453 --> 00:37:27.388 this is an excerpt from the map in in that planning document, 00:37:27.390 --> 00:37:29.791 in in that planning document, um, it does recommend uh 00:37:29.793 --> 00:37:31.225 um, it does recommend uh on-street conventional bike 00:37:31.227 --> 00:37:32.126 on-street conventional bike lanes on 101st Avenue through 00:37:32.128 --> 00:37:34.061 lanes on 101st Avenue through this stretch. So with that in 00:37:34.063 --> 00:37:36.263 this stretch. So with that in mind, we did uh notify 00:37:36.265 --> 00:37:38.132 mind, we did uh notify residents, um, a long 101st 00:37:38.134 --> 00:37:39.399 residents, um, a long 101st Avenue of our intent to 00:37:39.401 --> 00:37:42.336 Avenue of our intent to consider bike lanes. But as a 00:37:42.338 --> 00:37:44.471 consider bike lanes. But as a part of that consideration, um, 00:37:44.473 --> 00:37:45.739 part of that consideration, um, we do need to restripe the 00:37:45.741 --> 00:37:49.744 we do need to restripe the roadway and we also need to, uh, 00:37:49.746 --> 00:37:53.815 roadway and we also need to, uh, look at the, um, Parking along 00:37:53.817 --> 00:37:55.082 look at the, um, Parking along 101st Avenue. Currently 101st 00:37:55.084 --> 00:37:57.151 101st Avenue. Currently 101st Avenue, and this is an image 00:37:57.153 --> 00:37:58.619 Avenue, and this is an image showing how 101st Avenue is 00:37:58.621 --> 00:38:00.087 showing how 101st Avenue is striped in this area, you'll 00:38:00.089 --> 00:38:03.357 striped in this area, you'll see that, uh, there are, um. 00:38:03.359 --> 00:38:04.759 see that, uh, there are, um. One lane in each direction, 00:38:04.761 --> 00:38:06.694 One lane in each direction, east and west, and those are 12 00:38:06.696 --> 00:38:08.295 east and west, and those are 12 ft lanes and then 2 10-foot 00:38:08.297 --> 00:38:12.166 ft lanes and then 2 10-foot shoulders for a total of 44 ft, 00:38:12.168 --> 00:38:13.234 shoulders for a total of 44 ft, uh, of total width and parking 00:38:13.236 --> 00:38:15.035 uh, of total width and parking is currently allowed on both 00:38:15.037 --> 00:38:17.038 is currently allowed on both sides and within those 10-foot 00:38:17.040 --> 00:38:18.906 sides and within those 10-foot shoulders, but in order to put 00:38:18.908 --> 00:38:20.241 shoulders, but in order to put uh bike lanes on the roadway, 00:38:20.243 --> 00:38:22.176 uh bike lanes on the roadway, we do need to restrict parking 00:38:22.178 --> 00:38:23.244 we do need to restrict parking on at least one side of the 00:38:23.246 --> 00:38:27.448 on at least one side of the roadway. And just as a note, uh, 00:38:27.450 --> 00:38:29.116 roadway. And just as a note, uh, 1001st Avenue, uh, does 00:38:29.118 --> 00:38:30.985 1001st Avenue, uh, does currently is posted at 40 MPH 00:38:30.987 --> 00:38:32.787 currently is posted at 40 MPH and it has an annual daily 00:38:32.789 --> 00:38:36.123 and it has an annual daily traffic of about 3700 vehicles. 00:38:36.125 --> 00:38:37.258 traffic of about 3700 vehicles. Now just very quickly, uh, I 00:38:37.260 --> 00:38:39.060 Now just very quickly, uh, I just wanted to highlight a few 00:38:39.062 --> 00:38:39.994 just wanted to highlight a few other locations within the city 00:38:39.996 --> 00:38:42.897 other locations within the city that we do also have bike lanes, 00:38:42.899 --> 00:38:46.267 that we do also have bike lanes, um, so, uh, this is 63rd Avenue 00:38:46.269 --> 00:38:47.268 um, so, uh, this is 63rd Avenue from Zane to Crystal Lake 00:38:47.270 --> 00:38:48.736 from Zane to Crystal Lake Regional Trail, which is just, 00:38:48.738 --> 00:38:51.138 Regional Trail, which is just, uh, picks up just east of 00:38:51.140 --> 00:38:52.272 uh, picks up just east of County County Road 81. Um, it's 00:38:52.274 --> 00:38:53.674 County County Road 81. Um, it's a little tough to see in this 00:38:53.676 --> 00:38:54.541 a little tough to see in this image, but you can see that we 00:38:54.543 --> 00:38:56.477 image, but you can see that we You have bike lanes there with 00:38:56.479 --> 00:38:58.379 You have bike lanes there with a pretty good buffer and 00:38:58.381 --> 00:38:59.480 a pretty good buffer and through lanes, uh, and in this 00:38:59.482 --> 00:39:01.715 through lanes, uh, and in this area, there is no parking on 00:39:01.717 --> 00:39:03.350 area, there is no parking on either side of 63rd Avenue. The 00:39:03.352 --> 00:39:05.619 either side of 63rd Avenue. The speed limit is 30 MPH and there 00:39:05.621 --> 00:39:06.754 speed limit is 30 MPH and there are 12,000 cars per day on this 00:39:06.756 --> 00:39:09.690 are 12,000 cars per day on this section of roadway. We also 00:39:09.692 --> 00:39:12.159 section of roadway. We also have bike lanes on Candlewood 00:39:12.161 --> 00:39:13.694 have bike lanes on Candlewood Drive between West Broadway and 00:39:13.696 --> 00:39:15.562 Drive between West Broadway and Zane, uh, very scenic drive, 00:39:15.564 --> 00:39:16.964 Zane, uh, very scenic drive, actually, very curvy roadway, 00:39:16.966 --> 00:39:19.367 actually, very curvy roadway, again, 30 MPH, we do actually 00:39:19.369 --> 00:39:20.367 again, 30 MPH, we do actually have parking on one side of the 00:39:20.369 --> 00:39:21.101 have parking on one side of the roadway here and you can see on 00:39:21.103 --> 00:39:23.237 roadway here and you can see on the left side of the image that 00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:25.839 the left side of the image that there's a bike lane there, uh, 00:39:25.841 --> 00:39:27.641 there's a bike lane there, uh, there's a buffer and then there 00:39:27.643 --> 00:39:29.310 there's a buffer and then there is a space for parking along 00:39:29.312 --> 00:39:32.813 is a space for parking along Candlewood. That is again, 30 00:39:32.815 --> 00:39:35.783 Candlewood. That is again, 30 MPH with 2400 cars per day. Uh, 00:39:35.785 --> 00:39:37.584 MPH with 2400 cars per day. Uh, this is 73rd Avenue in Regent, 00:39:37.586 --> 00:39:39.186 this is 73rd Avenue in Regent, again, we have parking, you can 00:39:39.188 --> 00:39:40.721 again, we have parking, you can actually see cars parked in 00:39:40.723 --> 00:39:42.156 actually see cars parked in that area there. There's a bike 00:39:42.158 --> 00:39:44.191 that area there. There's a bike lane there, there's no buffer 00:39:44.193 --> 00:39:45.192 lane there, there's no buffer between the parking and the 00:39:45.194 --> 00:39:47.861 between the parking and the bike lane in this area, um, we 00:39:47.863 --> 00:39:49.196 bike lane in this area, um, we have lanes in each direction 00:39:49.198 --> 00:39:50.531 have lanes in each direction and then the bike lane uh going 00:39:50.533 --> 00:39:51.765 and then the bike lane uh going the other way with no parking 00:39:51.767 --> 00:39:53.868 the other way with no parking on that side. That's a 30 mile 00:39:53.870 --> 00:39:55.403 on that side. That's a 30 mile per hour road with 4200 cars 00:39:55.405 --> 00:39:58.806 per hour road with 4200 cars per day. And then finally, uh, 00:39:58.808 --> 00:40:00.574 per day. And then finally, uh, right outside of City Hall here, 00:40:00.576 --> 00:40:02.443 right outside of City Hall here, we have Edinbrook Terrace from 00:40:02.445 --> 00:40:03.945 we have Edinbrook Terrace from Regent to Zane. That also does 00:40:03.947 --> 00:40:05.879 Regent to Zane. That also does not have parking on either side. 00:40:05.881 --> 00:40:08.549 not have parking on either side. It's 30 MPH speed limit and 00:40:08.551 --> 00:40:10.751 It's 30 MPH speed limit and 1500 cars per day. So as we 00:40:10.753 --> 00:40:13.688 1500 cars per day. So as we look at the design for, uh, 00:40:13.690 --> 00:40:15.222 look at the design for, uh, bike lanes on 101st Avenue 00:40:15.224 --> 00:40:16.557 bike lanes on 101st Avenue recognize that we do not have 00:40:16.559 --> 00:40:18.892 recognize that we do not have space for both bike lanes and 00:40:18.894 --> 00:40:20.561 space for both bike lanes and parking on both sides. Um, we 00:40:20.563 --> 00:40:23.698 parking on both sides. Um, we have two options. One option is 00:40:23.700 --> 00:40:24.832 have two options. One option is no on street parking. It allows 00:40:24.834 --> 00:40:26.633 no on street parking. It allows us to actually have wider bike 00:40:26.635 --> 00:40:29.036 us to actually have wider bike lanes with 7 ft bike lanes and 00:40:29.038 --> 00:40:31.372 lanes with 7 ft bike lanes and a 3 ft buffer, uh, between the 00:40:31.374 --> 00:40:31.973 a 3 ft buffer, uh, between the general traffic and the bike 00:40:31.975 --> 00:40:34.708 general traffic and the bike lane. If we were to provide 00:40:34.710 --> 00:40:35.509 lane. If we were to provide parking on one side of the 00:40:35.511 --> 00:40:38.979 parking on one side of the roadway. Uh, which we would 00:40:38.981 --> 00:40:40.447 roadway. Uh, which we would recommend having parking on the 00:40:40.449 --> 00:40:43.651 recommend having parking on the north side at this time, um, we 00:40:43.653 --> 00:40:45.319 north side at this time, um, we would shrink the bike lanes up 00:40:45.321 --> 00:40:47.188 would shrink the bike lanes up to 5 ft and we would only have 00:40:47.190 --> 00:40:50.591 to 5 ft and we would only have a 1 ft buffer, uh, between the 00:40:50.593 --> 00:40:52.660 a 1 ft buffer, uh, between the bike lane and traffic. And 00:40:52.662 --> 00:40:55.529 bike lane and traffic. And originally, Um, and then just 00:40:55.531 --> 00:40:56.930 originally, Um, and then just uh this is what it would look 00:40:56.932 --> 00:40:58.365 uh this is what it would look like on the overhead and we can, 00:40:58.367 --> 00:41:02.269 like on the overhead and we can, I've got all of the slides here, 00:41:02.271 --> 00:41:03.738 I've got all of the slides here, um, and if there's any 00:41:03.740 --> 00:41:04.805 um, and if there's any particular questions about any 00:41:04.807 --> 00:41:06.340 particular questions about any particular segment, we can, uh, 00:41:06.342 --> 00:41:07.607 particular segment, we can, uh, zoom in on that or, or, or look 00:41:07.609 --> 00:41:13.313 zoom in on that or, or, or look through that. Um. As I said, we 00:41:13.315 --> 00:41:14.748 through that. Um. As I said, we have two options. I just wanted 00:41:14.750 --> 00:41:17.951 have two options. I just wanted to highlight. Uh, some public 00:41:17.953 --> 00:41:20.688 to highlight. Uh, some public comment. Um, I didn't, I 00:41:20.690 --> 00:41:21.889 comment. Um, I didn't, I thought I had a slide on that, 00:41:21.891 --> 00:41:23.758 thought I had a slide on that, sorry, uh, I just wanted to 00:41:23.760 --> 00:41:24.691 sorry, uh, I just wanted to highlight some public comment 00:41:24.693 --> 00:41:27.828 highlight some public comment and then also some feedback, um, 00:41:27.830 --> 00:41:29.497 and then also some feedback, um, that we've received, um, one of 00:41:29.499 --> 00:41:31.098 that we've received, um, one of the bench handouts that you, 00:41:31.100 --> 00:41:32.433 the bench handouts that you, that you just received is a 00:41:32.435 --> 00:41:34.434 that you just received is a public comment from a resident. 00:41:34.436 --> 00:41:36.036 public comment from a resident. It's the only comment that we 00:41:36.038 --> 00:41:36.570 It's the only comment that we received from the general 00:41:36.572 --> 00:41:40.007 received from the general public. Uh, recommending that 00:41:40.009 --> 00:41:41.975 public. Uh, recommending that we do not have, do not allow 00:41:41.977 --> 00:41:43.577 we do not have, do not allow parking on either side, uh, 00:41:43.579 --> 00:41:46.580 parking on either side, uh, this resident has indicated 00:41:46.582 --> 00:41:48.916 this resident has indicated that through their, um, 00:41:48.918 --> 00:41:51.318 that through their, um, multiple, uh, times traveling 00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:52.786 multiple, uh, times traveling 101st Avenue they've never seen 00:41:52.788 --> 00:41:54.555 101st Avenue they've never seen or very rarely see any vehicles 00:41:54.557 --> 00:41:56.990 or very rarely see any vehicles parked on 101st Avenue except 00:41:56.992 --> 00:42:00.327 parked on 101st Avenue except near uh the Ayn farm and um the 00:42:00.329 --> 00:42:03.730 near uh the Ayn farm and um the school there just east of uh 00:42:03.732 --> 00:42:07.468 school there just east of uh region or um Noble. And so he 00:42:07.470 --> 00:42:09.003 region or um Noble. And so he recommends not parking on, on 00:42:09.005 --> 00:42:11.338 recommends not parking on, on either side. I did call the 00:42:11.340 --> 00:42:12.940 either side. I did call the school this morning and talk to 00:42:12.942 --> 00:42:14.808 school this morning and talk to their facilities manager. He 00:42:14.810 --> 00:42:16.210 their facilities manager. He said they actually during their 00:42:16.212 --> 00:42:18.211 said they actually during their events, they actually try to um. 00:42:18.213 --> 00:42:20.814 events, they actually try to um. Dissuade people from parking on 00:42:20.816 --> 00:42:22.782 Dissuade people from parking on our first family they'll put, 00:42:22.784 --> 00:42:24.085 our first family they'll put, uh, cones out on 101st Avenue 00:42:24.087 --> 00:42:25.753 uh, cones out on 101st Avenue to try to discourage that 00:42:25.755 --> 00:42:27.955 to try to discourage that parking. They don't, they don't 00:42:27.957 --> 00:42:29.423 parking. They don't, they don't want their parents or visitors 00:42:29.425 --> 00:42:31.291 want their parents or visitors parking on 101st Avenue. Um, 00:42:31.293 --> 00:42:34.361 parking on 101st Avenue. Um, and then I also spoke with um. 00:42:34.363 --> 00:42:36.763 and then I also spoke with um. You know, clarified some 00:42:36.765 --> 00:42:37.832 You know, clarified some conversations internally with 00:42:37.834 --> 00:42:40.601 conversations internally with parks, um, department and 00:42:40.603 --> 00:42:42.369 parks, um, department and recreation department, um, we 00:42:42.371 --> 00:42:45.772 recreation department, um, we agreed that in the You know 00:42:45.774 --> 00:42:47.575 agreed that in the You know Couple of cases a year where we 00:42:47.577 --> 00:42:49.576 Couple of cases a year where we may need overflow parking on 00:42:49.578 --> 00:42:51.979 may need overflow parking on 101st Avenue we could cone off, 00:42:51.981 --> 00:42:54.515 101st Avenue we could cone off, uh, the bike lanes to allow, uh, 00:42:54.517 --> 00:42:56.984 uh, the bike lanes to allow, uh, parking from the farm out onto 00:42:56.986 --> 00:42:59.853 parking from the farm out onto 101st Avenue. This is probably, 00:42:59.855 --> 00:43:01.655 101st Avenue. This is probably, I will probably amend the staff 00:43:01.657 --> 00:43:02.856 I will probably amend the staff recommendation that's based on 00:43:02.858 --> 00:43:03.857 recommendation that's based on that feedback from the resident 00:43:03.859 --> 00:43:06.660 that feedback from the resident and the school this morning, um, 00:43:06.662 --> 00:43:08.929 and the school this morning, um, I will probably amend the staff 00:43:08.931 --> 00:43:10.397 I will probably amend the staff recommendation that we actually, 00:43:10.399 --> 00:43:11.331 recommendation that we actually, um, restrict parking on both 00:43:11.333 --> 00:43:12.799 um, restrict parking on both sides of the roadway though 00:43:12.801 --> 00:43:13.934 sides of the roadway though because of the 40 mile per hour 00:43:13.936 --> 00:43:16.670 because of the 40 mile per hour speed limit. It provides us. A 00:43:16.672 --> 00:43:20.141 speed limit. It provides us. A wider bike lane with uh a nice 00:43:20.143 --> 00:43:21.475 wider bike lane with uh a nice buffer to separate, uh, the 00:43:21.477 --> 00:43:23.210 buffer to separate, uh, the bikes from the general traffic 00:43:23.212 --> 00:43:27.214 bikes from the general traffic on 101st Avenue. And with that, 00:43:27.216 --> 00:43:27.882 on 101st Avenue. And with that, I will take any questions you 00:43:27.884 --> 00:43:33.486 I will take any questions you may have. All right, thank you, 00:43:33.488 --> 00:43:35.155 may have. All right, thank you, uh, commissioner, I mean, a 00:43:35.157 --> 00:43:37.624 uh, commissioner, I mean, a council member Kanowski. Thank 00:43:37.626 --> 00:43:40.494 council member Kanowski. Thank you, Mayor. I have a question. 00:43:40.496 --> 00:43:44.030 you, Mayor. I have a question. I live really close to this, uh, 00:43:44.032 --> 00:43:45.766 I live really close to this, uh, the farm and my question is 00:43:45.768 --> 00:43:47.434 the farm and my question is regarding a bike lane in such 00:43:47.436 --> 00:43:48.435 regarding a bike lane in such close proximity to the bike 00:43:48.437 --> 00:43:49.903 close proximity to the bike path, because the bike path is 00:43:49.905 --> 00:43:54.541 path, because the bike path is about a block. Off of that. 00:43:54.543 --> 00:43:55.910 about a block. Off of that. What residents be using 101st. 00:43:55.912 --> 00:43:57.378 What residents be using 101st. I mean, the bike path goes all 00:43:57.380 --> 00:43:59.847 I mean, the bike path goes all the way from Zane. It would be 00:43:59.849 --> 00:44:00.781 the way from Zane. It would be parallel, right? You're talking 00:44:00.783 --> 00:44:02.716 parallel, right? You're talking about the regional trail, um, 00:44:02.718 --> 00:44:04.184 about the regional trail, um, yeah, and, and I, you know, we 00:44:04.186 --> 00:44:06.520 yeah, and, and I, you know, we looked at that as well and, and 00:44:06.522 --> 00:44:08.922 looked at that as well and, and 1st,,, 1st of all, um, you know, 00:44:08.924 --> 00:44:10.857 1st,,, 1st of all, um, you know, our bicycle, our pedestrian 00:44:10.859 --> 00:44:11.992 our bicycle, our pedestrian bicycle plan went through, uh, 00:44:11.994 --> 00:44:14.194 bicycle plan went through, uh, you know, a public process, and 00:44:14.196 --> 00:44:15.329 you know, a public process, and it was ident even with the 00:44:15.331 --> 00:44:16.397 it was ident even with the regional trail there, it was 00:44:16.399 --> 00:44:18.065 regional trail there, it was still identified as a 00:44:18.067 --> 00:44:18.732 still identified as a recommended um on street 00:44:18.734 --> 00:44:22.069 recommended um on street treatment. I would say that The 00:44:22.071 --> 00:44:24.471 treatment. I would say that The reason we go to Falgold is 00:44:24.473 --> 00:44:25.505 reason we go to Falgold is because Falgold has a 00:44:25.507 --> 00:44:26.673 because Falgold has a connection to the regional 00:44:26.675 --> 00:44:29.009 connection to the regional trail, uh, just north of here, 00:44:29.011 --> 00:44:30.844 trail, uh, just north of here, um, and there are also other a 00:44:30.846 --> 00:44:32.813 um, and there are also other a couple of other spots along 00:44:32.815 --> 00:44:33.681 couple of other spots along 101st Avenue where the direct 00:44:33.683 --> 00:44:36.083 101st Avenue where the direct connection. There's a paved 00:44:36.085 --> 00:44:37.684 connection. There's a paved connection between a local 00:44:37.686 --> 00:44:39.786 connection between a local street and the regional trail. 00:44:39.788 --> 00:44:42.289 street and the regional trail. This, the bike lane would allow 00:44:42.291 --> 00:44:44.091 This, the bike lane would allow people to travel from their 00:44:44.093 --> 00:44:46.093 people to travel from their homes along 101st Avenue to one 00:44:46.095 --> 00:44:47.094 homes along 101st Avenue to one of those direct connections to 00:44:47.096 --> 00:44:48.562 of those direct connections to the regional trail. So it 00:44:48.564 --> 00:44:49.563 the regional trail. So it actually enhances connection to 00:44:49.565 --> 00:44:51.898 actually enhances connection to the regional trail, but it's 00:44:51.900 --> 00:44:54.501 the regional trail, but it's also a shorter trip, um, for 00:44:54.503 --> 00:44:56.370 also a shorter trip, um, for somebody who maybe is commuting 00:44:56.372 --> 00:44:57.570 somebody who maybe is commuting or something, uh, versus the 00:44:57.572 --> 00:44:58.171 or something, uh, versus the regional trail. The regional 00:44:58.173 --> 00:45:00.674 regional trail. The regional trail is a little more windy, 00:45:00.676 --> 00:45:02.576 trail is a little more windy, um, and from a pure, you know, 00:45:02.578 --> 00:45:04.511 um, and from a pure, you know, from a length perspective, it's, 00:45:04.513 --> 00:45:07.848 from a length perspective, it's, it's a little longer, um, the 00:45:07.850 --> 00:45:08.782 it's a little longer, um, the trail right off Noble as well. 00:45:08.784 --> 00:45:13.186 trail right off Noble as well. There's a Yep, yep that on 00:45:13.188 --> 00:45:13.987 There's a Yep, yep that on perpendicular and can access 00:45:13.989 --> 00:45:17.124 perpendicular and can access that true. Um, I wouldn't be in 00:45:17.126 --> 00:45:19.059 that true. Um, I wouldn't be in favor of blocking completely 00:45:19.061 --> 00:45:20.127 favor of blocking completely parking on 101st because when 00:45:20.129 --> 00:45:21.395 parking on 101st because when there are activities at Edom, 00:45:21.397 --> 00:45:23.864 there are activities at Edom, it does. flow onto the street. 00:45:23.866 --> 00:45:25.799 it does. flow onto the street. It's probably the only time I 00:45:25.801 --> 00:45:27.267 It's probably the only time I ever see parking there, but 00:45:27.269 --> 00:45:28.802 ever see parking there, but it's significant. We draw a 00:45:28.804 --> 00:45:31.271 it's significant. We draw a crowd. We did an adult type 00:45:31.273 --> 00:45:32.139 crowd. We did an adult type activity with beer and, and 00:45:32.141 --> 00:45:33.273 activity with beer and, and that, and that was probably the 00:45:33.275 --> 00:45:34.942 that, and that was probably the most parking I've ever seen. It 00:45:34.944 --> 00:45:36.277 most parking I've ever seen. It overflowed a lot significantly. 00:45:36.279 --> 00:45:37.811 overflowed a lot significantly. I mean, I have no objection to 00:45:37.813 --> 00:45:40.914 I mean, I have no objection to the. bike path. I think it's a 00:45:40.916 --> 00:45:41.848 the. bike path. I think it's a little redundant with the trail. 00:45:41.850 --> 00:45:44.818 little redundant with the trail. I mean, literally a block. Away 00:45:44.820 --> 00:45:45.752 I mean, literally a block. Away with so many access points, but 00:45:45.754 --> 00:45:46.887 with so many access points, but if you're going to do it, I, 00:45:46.889 --> 00:45:50.657 if you're going to do it, I, I'm not in favor of. Um Not 00:45:50.659 --> 00:45:52.692 I'm not in favor of. Um Not having parking, uh, adjacent to 00:45:52.694 --> 00:45:54.228 having parking, uh, adjacent to the farm. What would that look 00:45:54.230 --> 00:45:55.762 the farm. What would that look like then if you kept parking 00:45:55.764 --> 00:45:58.465 like then if you kept parking on one side. Could you have a 00:45:58.467 --> 00:46:00.834 on one side. Could you have a two-lane bike path on the other 00:46:00.836 --> 00:46:02.569 two-lane bike path on the other side of the road. Is that not 00:46:02.571 --> 00:46:04.171 side of the road. Is that not safe? That, that's actually in 00:46:04.173 --> 00:46:05.839 safe? That, that's actually in your packet, so the, on this 00:46:05.841 --> 00:46:09.076 your packet, so the, on this screen here, that bottom option 00:46:09.078 --> 00:46:10.644 screen here, that bottom option shows the parking lane on one 00:46:10.646 --> 00:46:12.512 shows the parking lane on one side in the bike lane on each 00:46:12.514 --> 00:46:13.580 side in the bike lane on each side of the street then, so 00:46:13.582 --> 00:46:14.715 side of the street then, so there would just be one of the 00:46:14.717 --> 00:46:16.717 there would just be one of the bike lanes would be. 00:46:16.719 --> 00:46:17.384 bike lanes would be. Immediately adjacent to the 00:46:17.386 --> 00:46:20.587 Immediately adjacent to the parking. Here. And I guess my 00:46:20.589 --> 00:46:22.456 parking. Here. And I guess my just a broader question, I mean, 00:46:22.458 --> 00:46:23.390 just a broader question, I mean, again, I'm not necessarily 00:46:23.392 --> 00:46:25.325 again, I'm not necessarily opposed to it, but are there 00:46:25.327 --> 00:46:26.860 opposed to it, but are there other places in the city that 00:46:26.862 --> 00:46:30.197 other places in the city that don't have any bike paths cause 00:46:30.199 --> 00:46:31.465 don't have any bike paths cause we have a robust bike trails so 00:46:31.467 --> 00:46:34.067 we have a robust bike trails so close, so there are other areas 00:46:34.069 --> 00:46:35.869 close, so there are other areas that could use that resource. 00:46:35.871 --> 00:46:37.871 that could use that resource. Well, there are other areas 00:46:37.873 --> 00:46:40.707 Well, there are other areas that are identified in the bike 00:46:40.709 --> 00:46:42.576 that are identified in the bike plan for future, um. 00:46:42.578 --> 00:46:44.010 plan for future, um. Conventional bike lanes, as we 00:46:44.012 --> 00:46:44.611 Conventional bike lanes, as we call it with on-street bike 00:46:44.613 --> 00:46:46.947 call it with on-street bike lanes, there's actually a few 00:46:46.949 --> 00:46:49.283 lanes, there's actually a few spots that are identified for 00:46:49.285 --> 00:46:50.483 spots that are identified for uh protected uh bike lanes 00:46:50.485 --> 00:46:51.819 uh protected uh bike lanes which would probably be more 00:46:51.821 --> 00:46:53.887 which would probably be more like what you were kind of uh 00:46:53.889 --> 00:46:55.622 like what you were kind of uh initially suggesting there we 00:46:55.624 --> 00:46:56.356 initially suggesting there we have the both directions of the 00:46:56.358 --> 00:46:57.357 have the both directions of the bike lane on one side of the 00:46:57.359 --> 00:46:59.192 bike lane on one side of the street, we would have a 00:46:59.194 --> 00:47:00.093 street, we would have a physical separation between the 00:47:00.095 --> 00:47:03.630 physical separation between the bike lane and bike lanes and uh 00:47:03.632 --> 00:47:05.965 bike lane and bike lanes and uh uh traffic, um. But again, we 00:47:05.967 --> 00:47:09.169 uh traffic, um. But again, we are just uh we're executing the 00:47:09.171 --> 00:47:10.236 are just uh we're executing the recommendations of the 00:47:10.238 --> 00:47:11.971 recommendations of the pedestrian and bicycle, uh, 00:47:11.973 --> 00:47:13.306 pedestrian and bicycle, uh, plan, and this was one of the 00:47:13.308 --> 00:47:13.973 plan, and this was one of the recommendations out of there. 00:47:13.975 --> 00:47:15.442 recommendations out of there. There were, there are other 00:47:15.444 --> 00:47:17.911 There were, there are other both north, south and east-west 00:47:17.913 --> 00:47:19.846 both north, south and east-west streets across the city that 00:47:19.848 --> 00:47:21.715 streets across the city that have recommendations and when 00:47:21.717 --> 00:47:23.317 have recommendations and when we do similar projects on those 00:47:23.319 --> 00:47:25.152 we do similar projects on those streets will, we'll look at 00:47:25.154 --> 00:47:26.319 streets will, we'll look at implementing those bike lanes 00:47:26.321 --> 00:47:29.589 implementing those bike lanes on those at that time when 00:47:29.591 --> 00:47:30.323 on those at that time when bicycle riders would get to 00:47:30.325 --> 00:47:33.460 bicycle riders would get to Zane. What happens then on our 00:47:33.462 --> 00:47:35.929 Zane. What happens then on our bike paths on Zane. There is a 00:47:35.931 --> 00:47:37.798 bike paths on Zane. There is a trail along the, I believe 00:47:37.800 --> 00:47:38.932 trail along the, I believe there's a trail along the west 00:47:38.934 --> 00:47:40.533 there's a trail along the west side of Zane and a sidewalk 00:47:40.535 --> 00:47:41.201 side of Zane and a sidewalk along the east side of Zane, 00:47:41.203 --> 00:47:42.469 along the east side of Zane, which they could then take down 00:47:42.471 --> 00:47:47.608 which they could then take down to. Um, other trails or other 00:47:47.610 --> 00:47:49.676 to. Um, other trails or other points to the Rounds trail. OK, 00:47:49.678 --> 00:47:51.411 points to the Rounds trail. OK, but there is at least somewhere 00:47:51.413 --> 00:47:53.747 but there is at least somewhere for them to access a bike path. 00:47:53.749 --> 00:47:57.884 for them to access a bike path. OK, thank you. council member 00:47:57.886 --> 00:48:04.291 OK, thank you. council member Page. All right. So a couple of 00:48:04.293 --> 00:48:05.359 Page. All right. So a couple of questions. Is there a reason 00:48:05.361 --> 00:48:06.760 questions. Is there a reason why it would stay 40 when all 00:48:06.762 --> 00:48:09.062 why it would stay 40 when all the other ones were 30. I 00:48:09.064 --> 00:48:11.097 the other ones were 30. I didn't write down the traffic. 00:48:11.099 --> 00:48:14.301 didn't write down the traffic. Yeah, the, uh, it's just the 00:48:14.303 --> 00:48:15.903 Yeah, the, uh, it's just the way 101st Avenue was originally 00:48:15.905 --> 00:48:18.672 way 101st Avenue was originally designed and opened, um, it's a, 00:48:18.674 --> 00:48:20.574 designed and opened, um, it's a, it's a straight roadway without 00:48:20.576 --> 00:48:21.642 it's a straight roadway without much uh curves in that and so 00:48:21.644 --> 00:48:24.778 much uh curves in that and so that's. That's a longer process 00:48:24.780 --> 00:48:26.546 that's. That's a longer process and longer dep uh explanation 00:48:26.548 --> 00:48:28.115 and longer dep uh explanation of how we set speed limits in 00:48:28.117 --> 00:48:30.383 of how we set speed limits in the in the city, so that's 00:48:30.385 --> 00:48:31.518 the in the city, so that's independent of the bike lanes 00:48:31.520 --> 00:48:34.855 independent of the bike lanes that would that would And then 00:48:34.857 --> 00:48:36.189 that would that would And then so for those for those posted 00:48:36.191 --> 00:48:37.657 so for those for those posted signs, how far are those apart 00:48:37.659 --> 00:48:40.994 signs, how far are those apart then? The for the speed limit 00:48:40.996 --> 00:48:43.530 then? The for the speed limit signs generally we would post 00:48:43.532 --> 00:48:44.865 signs generally we would post those where, like, for instance, 00:48:44.867 --> 00:48:46.934 those where, like, for instance, if you're turning off of Zane 00:48:46.936 --> 00:48:47.801 if you're turning off of Zane onto 101st Avenue, we would 00:48:47.803 --> 00:48:50.670 onto 101st Avenue, we would have a speed limit sign there 00:48:50.672 --> 00:48:52.205 have a speed limit sign there because your, it's, it's a 00:48:52.207 --> 00:48:53.140 because your, it's, it's a major change in speed limit 00:48:53.142 --> 00:48:55.142 major change in speed limit from the two major from two 00:48:55.144 --> 00:48:57.277 from the two major from two roadways, um, we wouldn't 00:48:57.279 --> 00:48:58.077 roadways, um, we wouldn't necessarily have a speed limit 00:48:58.079 --> 00:49:00.013 necessarily have a speed limit sign at every after every 00:49:00.015 --> 00:49:01.081 sign at every after every intersection, but where they're 00:49:01.083 --> 00:49:02.950 intersection, but where they're coming in from a higher speed 00:49:02.952 --> 00:49:05.385 coming in from a higher speed or a different, uh, a different 00:49:05.387 --> 00:49:08.989 or a different, uh, a different roadway that has a, you know. A 00:49:08.991 --> 00:49:10.523 roadway that has a, you know. A larger differential in speed, 00:49:10.525 --> 00:49:12.459 larger differential in speed, we would post the speed limit 00:49:12.461 --> 00:49:14.294 we would post the speed limit sign to indicate that. So So 00:49:14.296 --> 00:49:16.329 sign to indicate that. So So then the parking itself, if you 00:49:16.331 --> 00:49:19.366 then the parking itself, if you did, um, the no parking, um, 00:49:19.368 --> 00:49:20.166 did, um, the no parking, um, what are the rules? And again, 00:49:20.168 --> 00:49:22.035 what are the rules? And again, I'm learning, so thank you for 00:49:22.037 --> 00:49:24.905 I'm learning, so thank you for being patient with me for, um, 00:49:24.907 --> 00:49:27.107 being patient with me for, um, conditional parking. permits, 00:49:27.109 --> 00:49:28.108 conditional parking. permits, or how does that work within 00:49:28.110 --> 00:49:29.842 or how does that work within the city? Do you have someone 00:49:29.844 --> 00:49:32.378 the city? Do you have someone who you have No parking, but 00:49:32.380 --> 00:49:34.981 who you have No parking, but they need it for once a year. 00:49:34.983 --> 00:49:36.049 they need it for once a year. Events or whatever, how does 00:49:36.051 --> 00:49:38.351 Events or whatever, how does that work or does that not 00:49:38.353 --> 00:49:41.254 that work or does that not happen? Well, uh, Council page 00:49:41.256 --> 00:49:44.124 happen? Well, uh, Council page for this, if we just post 00:49:44.126 --> 00:49:44.991 for this, if we just post parking a parking restriction 00:49:44.993 --> 00:49:47.260 parking a parking restriction on one side of 101st Avenue, we 00:49:47.262 --> 00:49:49.963 on one side of 101st Avenue, we would have signs that indicate 00:49:49.965 --> 00:49:51.398 would have signs that indicate no parking on the side that 00:49:51.400 --> 00:49:52.599 no parking on the side that it's prohibited, there wouldn't 00:49:52.601 --> 00:49:53.333 it's prohibited, there wouldn't be any signage on the other 00:49:53.335 --> 00:49:55.335 be any signage on the other side. There wouldn't be any 00:49:55.337 --> 00:49:57.204 side. There wouldn't be any need for probably any need for 00:49:57.206 --> 00:49:58.338 need for probably any need for any permits or anything because 00:49:58.340 --> 00:49:59.139 any permits or anything because there is availability of 00:49:59.141 --> 00:50:00.206 there is availability of parking on at least one side of 00:50:00.208 --> 00:50:02.108 parking on at least one side of the roadway. Sorry to interrupt. 00:50:02.110 --> 00:50:03.677 the roadway. Sorry to interrupt. Let me clarify if there's no 00:50:03.679 --> 00:50:04.478 Let me clarify if there's no parking on both sides, that's 00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:06.146 parking on both sides, that's where that's where my question 00:50:06.148 --> 00:50:07.847 where that's where my question comes from. So there's no 00:50:07.849 --> 00:50:10.350 comes from. So there's no parking on both sides, I'm not 00:50:10.352 --> 00:50:12.352 parking on both sides, I'm not 100% familiar with all of the 00:50:12.354 --> 00:50:16.122 100% familiar with all of the options, but, um, there may be 00:50:16.124 --> 00:50:17.691 options, but, um, there may be an opportunity for somebody to 00:50:17.693 --> 00:50:20.527 an opportunity for somebody to petition the city to 00:50:20.529 --> 00:50:22.395 petition the city to temporarily allow parking where 00:50:22.397 --> 00:50:23.964 temporarily allow parking where we would maybe be some no 00:50:23.966 --> 00:50:25.565 we would maybe be some no parking signs in very rare 00:50:25.567 --> 00:50:28.234 parking signs in very rare cases, but they would have to 00:50:28.236 --> 00:50:30.703 cases, but they would have to essentially, you know, request, 00:50:30.705 --> 00:50:31.438 essentially, you know, request, um, that exemption for a period 00:50:31.440 --> 00:50:33.707 um, that exemption for a period of time, say it's a major event 00:50:33.709 --> 00:50:35.709 of time, say it's a major event or something of those. And we 00:50:35.711 --> 00:50:36.510 or something of those. And we wouldn't necessarily approve it, 00:50:36.512 --> 00:50:38.511 wouldn't necessarily approve it, we would have to look at. What 00:50:38.513 --> 00:50:39.713 we would have to look at. What the conditions were, what, you 00:50:39.715 --> 00:50:41.881 the conditions were, what, you know, does the, does the street 00:50:41.883 --> 00:50:43.316 know, does the, does the street support it, um, and, but we 00:50:43.318 --> 00:50:44.518 support it, um, and, but we would look at that on a case by 00:50:44.520 --> 00:50:52.192 would look at that on a case by case basis. OK, thank you. 00:50:52.194 --> 00:50:57.531 case basis. OK, thank you. council member Tran. Thank you. 00:50:57.533 --> 00:50:59.332 council member Tran. Thank you. Um, my question for you is like, 00:50:59.334 --> 00:51:05.405 Um, my question for you is like, how How long this um project. 00:51:05.407 --> 00:51:07.808 how How long this um project. out to the community so that 00:51:07.810 --> 00:51:09.276 out to the community so that people are aware and let us 00:51:09.278 --> 00:51:13.146 people are aware and let us know like, like this feedback. 00:51:13.148 --> 00:51:16.016 know like, like this feedback. For how long the city make the 00:51:16.018 --> 00:51:18.018 For how long the city make the community aware of this? Yes, 00:51:18.020 --> 00:51:20.854 community aware of this? Yes, Councilor Tran, I believe we 00:51:20.856 --> 00:51:24.224 Councilor Tran, I believe we sent the original letter out to 00:51:24.226 --> 00:51:27.794 sent the original letter out to the public in late December. So 00:51:27.796 --> 00:51:29.429 the public in late December. So just a few weeks ago we 00:51:29.431 --> 00:51:33.667 just a few weeks ago we notified the public. Um, so the 00:51:33.669 --> 00:51:39.305 notified the public. Um, so the time is too short. Um We, uh, 00:51:39.307 --> 00:51:41.374 time is too short. Um We, uh, give more time for the public 00:51:41.376 --> 00:51:43.977 give more time for the public to, to let us know about this, 00:51:43.979 --> 00:51:47.380 to, to let us know about this, like, like feedback like this 00:51:47.382 --> 00:51:49.549 like, like feedback like this uh person resident. Uh, I 00:51:49.551 --> 00:51:52.052 uh person resident. Uh, I suggest we want to hear more, 00:51:52.054 --> 00:51:54.120 suggest we want to hear more, more from the people, uh, 00:51:54.122 --> 00:51:55.522 more from the people, uh, before we make a decision, uh 00:51:55.524 --> 00:51:56.823 before we make a decision, uh before we wrote about it, 00:51:56.825 --> 00:51:58.659 before we wrote about it, because this is about the 00:51:58.661 --> 00:52:06.900 because this is about the community use. Uh, benefit and 00:52:06.902 --> 00:52:08.468 community use. Uh, benefit and Uh, yes, uh, Council member 00:52:08.470 --> 00:52:11.204 Uh, yes, uh, Council member Tran, I, the only hesitation I 00:52:11.206 --> 00:52:12.873 Tran, I, the only hesitation I have in that certainly we could 00:52:12.875 --> 00:52:14.741 have in that certainly we could wait a couple more weeks. The 00:52:14.743 --> 00:52:16.209 wait a couple more weeks. The only hesitation I have for that 00:52:16.211 --> 00:52:20.346 only hesitation I have for that is that um. We, we are. Does 00:52:20.348 --> 00:52:21.881 is that um. We, we are. Does doing the final design on this, 00:52:21.883 --> 00:52:24.417 doing the final design on this, and we do need to route our 00:52:24.419 --> 00:52:26.119 and we do need to route our plans through a couple of 00:52:26.121 --> 00:52:26.887 plans through a couple of different agencies for review 00:52:26.889 --> 00:52:29.055 different agencies for review before we can bid it, and we're 00:52:29.057 --> 00:52:31.158 before we can bid it, and we're hoping to bid our project, um, 00:52:31.160 --> 00:52:33.693 hoping to bid our project, um, by the end of February, uh, in 00:52:33.695 --> 00:52:35.362 by the end of February, uh, in order to get, you know, 00:52:35.364 --> 00:52:35.962 order to get, you know, reasonable bids before 00:52:35.964 --> 00:52:37.764 reasonable bids before construction season starts. So 00:52:37.766 --> 00:52:40.233 construction season starts. So the longer we wait, um, the, 00:52:40.235 --> 00:52:41.735 the longer we wait, um, the, the more likely it is that we 00:52:41.737 --> 00:52:44.437 the more likely it is that we will not be able to. Um, open 00:52:44.439 --> 00:52:47.240 will not be able to. Um, open bids when we would like to. For 00:52:47.242 --> 00:52:48.709 bids when we would like to. For the project. It's not, it's not 00:52:48.711 --> 00:52:49.542 the project. It's not, it's not impossible by any means and, 00:52:49.544 --> 00:52:51.578 impossible by any means and, and we could, it would just 00:52:51.580 --> 00:52:53.379 and we could, it would just delay that process a little bit, 00:52:53.381 --> 00:52:57.917 delay that process a little bit, um. Is it possible that you can 00:52:57.919 --> 00:53:01.621 um. Is it possible that you can give more like. 3 weeks. So 00:53:01.623 --> 00:53:03.456 give more like. 3 weeks. So that we, we want to hear more 00:53:03.458 --> 00:53:08.962 that we, we want to hear more from the resident. Um, I, I 00:53:08.964 --> 00:53:10.329 from the resident. Um, I, I suppose we could come back on 00:53:10.331 --> 00:53:15.034 suppose we could come back on February 10th. Uh, to counsel, 00:53:15.036 --> 00:53:16.836 February 10th. Uh, to counsel, um, I, I just without 00:53:16.838 --> 00:53:18.739 um, I, I just without confirming with my staff when 00:53:18.741 --> 00:53:20.807 confirming with my staff when we need to cause we, we need to 00:53:20.809 --> 00:53:21.941 we need to cause we, we need to submit the plans because we're 00:53:21.943 --> 00:53:23.276 submit the plans because we're using state aid funding, we 00:53:23.278 --> 00:53:25.545 using state aid funding, we need to submit the plans to 00:53:25.547 --> 00:53:27.013 need to submit the plans to Minott for review, um, and I 00:53:27.015 --> 00:53:28.081 Minott for review, um, and I would want to double check with 00:53:28.083 --> 00:53:29.482 would want to double check with my staff on how long that 00:53:29.484 --> 00:53:32.485 my staff on how long that normally takes. Um, but I mean, 00:53:32.487 --> 00:53:33.953 normally takes. Um, but I mean, that's, that's an option, 00:53:33.955 --> 00:53:35.288 that's, that's an option, that's an option, but, you know, 00:53:35.290 --> 00:53:37.957 that's an option, but, you know, people have had it since, uh, 00:53:37.959 --> 00:53:38.759 people have had it since, uh, it was before Christmas that 00:53:38.761 --> 00:53:41.394 it was before Christmas that that the letters went out and 00:53:41.396 --> 00:53:44.097 that the letters went out and were received, um. And, and we 00:53:44.099 --> 00:53:46.632 were received, um. And, and we just, we've only had the one, 00:53:46.634 --> 00:53:48.501 just, we've only had the one, the one comment on it. I want, 00:53:48.503 --> 00:53:50.503 the one comment on it. I want, I just want to make sure that 00:53:50.505 --> 00:53:52.505 I just want to make sure that the people who live in this 00:53:52.507 --> 00:53:54.441 the people who live in this area, you know, have the right 00:53:54.443 --> 00:53:59.112 area, you know, have the right to be aware and to contribute. 00:53:59.114 --> 00:54:02.182 to be aware and to contribute. Feedback. So, um, please give. 00:54:02.184 --> 00:54:05.585 Feedback. So, um, please give. As more, like 2 weeks? 15 days? 00:54:05.587 --> 00:54:07.554 As more, like 2 weeks? 15 days? And we try to reach out to 00:54:07.556 --> 00:54:09.256 And we try to reach out to people and to hear from them 00:54:09.258 --> 00:54:12.258 people and to hear from them before we, we wrote about this. 00:54:12.260 --> 00:54:13.693 before we, we wrote about this. I think that would depend on 00:54:13.695 --> 00:54:14.794 I think that would depend on the council making that 00:54:14.796 --> 00:54:20.466 the council making that decision. Did you have further 00:54:20.468 --> 00:54:25.705 decision. Did you have further comment or? Yes, uh How is my 00:54:25.707 --> 00:54:26.405 comment or? Yes, uh How is my college how college think about 00:54:26.407 --> 00:54:28.475 college how college think about that. We, we want to hear more 00:54:28.477 --> 00:54:29.142 that. We, we want to hear more from I think other people would 00:54:29.144 --> 00:54:31.211 from I think other people would like to speak. And then we can, 00:54:31.213 --> 00:54:32.879 like to speak. And then we can, if you, if you want to make a 00:54:32.881 --> 00:54:34.680 if you, if you want to make a motion or, but I would suggest 00:54:34.682 --> 00:54:36.883 motion or, but I would suggest letting other folks speak. So 00:54:36.885 --> 00:54:39.753 letting other folks speak. So is it OK with you like 15 more 00:54:39.755 --> 00:54:41.421 is it OK with you like 15 more days. So he doesn't make that 00:54:41.423 --> 00:54:42.222 days. So he doesn't make that decision, Councilman Matran. I 00:54:42.224 --> 00:54:43.290 decision, Councilman Matran. I know you want him to, but he 00:54:43.292 --> 00:54:46.560 know you want him to, but he doesn't make that decision. The 00:54:46.562 --> 00:54:47.360 doesn't make that decision. The council makes that decision, 00:54:47.362 --> 00:54:48.762 council makes that decision, you know he can submit whatever 00:54:48.764 --> 00:54:49.462 you know he can submit whatever he would like.

We, before we make 00:55:19.861 --> 00:55:20.660 from them. We, before we make decision of clarification, Mr. 00:55:20.662 --> 00:55:24.530 decision of clarification, Mr. Mayor.

Um, or a city manager struggle, you had mentioned 00:56:41.209 --> 00:56:43.877 struggle, you had mentioned earlier during our phone call 00:56:43.879 --> 00:56:46.412 earlier during our phone call that this project may be part 00:56:46.414 --> 00:56:49.015 that this project may be part of a standard road upgrade. 00:56:49.017 --> 00:56:51.884 of a standard road upgrade. process, so there's no 00:56:51.886 --> 00:56:52.485 process, so there's no additional cost. Is that 00:56:52.487 --> 00:56:59.158 additional cost. Is that correct? Um, Mary Winston 00:56:59.160 --> 00:57:00.293 correct? Um, Mary Winston customer Erikson, members of 00:57:00.295 --> 00:57:02.528 customer Erikson, members of council, um. I would love to 00:57:02.530 --> 00:57:03.496 council, um. I would love to double check with the city 00:57:03.498 --> 00:57:04.431 double check with the city engineer, but my understanding 00:57:04.433 --> 00:57:07.367 engineer, but my understanding is that this is part of our 00:57:07.369 --> 00:57:08.801 is that this is part of our routine 2025 payment management 00:57:08.803 --> 00:57:10.269 routine 2025 payment management program. The additional cost 00:57:10.271 --> 00:57:12.172 program. The additional cost would be any potential striping 00:57:12.174 --> 00:57:14.140 would be any potential striping that might be incurred as a 00:57:14.142 --> 00:57:15.775 that might be incurred as a result of the different options 00:57:15.777 --> 00:57:17.710 result of the different options that are here, but my 00:57:17.712 --> 00:57:19.112 that are here, but my assumption, and I would defer 00:57:19.114 --> 00:57:20.913 assumption, and I would defer to the city engineer in terms 00:57:20.915 --> 00:57:22.983 to the city engineer in terms of any cost difference among 00:57:22.985 --> 00:57:24.283 of any cost difference among these options, uh, we 00:57:24.285 --> 00:57:25.384 these options, uh, we ultimately won't know until we 00:57:25.386 --> 00:57:26.853 ultimately won't know until we get the bids back, but my guess 00:57:26.855 --> 00:57:28.388 get the bids back, but my guess is it would be relatively minor, 00:57:28.390 --> 00:57:30.991 is it would be relatively minor, but Deer to Mister Culver uh 00:57:30.993 --> 00:57:33.526 but Deer to Mister Culver uh for final. c lar ity on that. 00:57:33.528 --> 00:57:36.129 for final. c lar ity on that. So we're not really foregoing 00:57:36.131 --> 00:57:37.530 So we're not really foregoing any other possible. Like 00:57:37.532 --> 00:57:38.531 any other possible. Like there's not hundreds of 00:57:38.533 --> 00:57:39.799 there's not hundreds of thousands of dollars being 00:57:39.801 --> 00:57:41.334 thousands of dollars being spent here that could have 00:57:41.336 --> 00:57:42.601 spent here that could have built the trail elsewhere. 00:57:42.603 --> 00:57:43.402 built the trail elsewhere. Council Marrickson, no, there 00:57:43.404 --> 00:57:45.004 Council Marrickson, no, there is not. I mean, we, we're, 00:57:45.006 --> 00:57:46.539 is not. I mean, we, we're, we're talking on the magnitude 00:57:46.541 --> 00:57:49.408 we're talking on the magnitude of $30,000 to $50,000 between 00:57:49.410 --> 00:57:50.543 of $30,000 to $50,000 between striping and signage, and that, 00:57:50.545 --> 00:57:51.878 striping and signage, and that, that would be state aid dollars, 00:57:51.880 --> 00:57:54.814 that would be state aid dollars, um. Thank you. Those are the 00:57:54.816 --> 00:57:55.615 um. Thank you. Those are the two points of clarification I 00:57:55.617 --> 00:58:02.722 two points of clarification I want. Thanks. So, uh, council 00:58:02.724 --> 00:58:03.623 want. Thanks. So, uh, council member Tran, there's other 00:58:03.625 --> 00:58:06.759 member Tran, there's other folks that are ahead of you. Uh 00:58:06.761 --> 00:58:10.163 folks that are ahead of you. Uh So council member, uh, Zheng. 00:58:10.165 --> 00:58:12.832 So council member, uh, Zheng. Yeah, thank you, Mayor, um, I 00:58:12.834 --> 00:58:14.633 Yeah, thank you, Mayor, um, I just had a quick question also 00:58:14.635 --> 00:58:15.968 just had a quick question also based upon the statement that 00:58:15.970 --> 00:58:17.704 based upon the statement that was submitted from the public, 00:58:17.706 --> 00:58:21.240 was submitted from the public, um. Having that I don't live 00:58:21.242 --> 00:58:24.610 um. Having that I don't live around there. I don't see much 00:58:24.612 --> 00:58:26.112 around there. I don't see much of the um parking situation, 00:58:26.114 --> 00:58:27.713 of the um parking situation, but then I was just wondering 00:58:27.715 --> 00:58:30.883 but then I was just wondering out of curiosity, is there a 00:58:30.885 --> 00:58:32.051 out of curiosity, is there a particular reason why parking 00:58:32.053 --> 00:58:33.786 particular reason why parking was proposed on the north end 00:58:33.788 --> 00:58:36.222 was proposed on the north end of 101st instead of the south 00:58:36.224 --> 00:58:38.290 of 101st instead of the south if based upon public comment, 00:58:38.292 --> 00:58:38.992 if based upon public comment, there's more parking on the 00:58:38.994 --> 00:58:42.261 there's more parking on the south. Uh, council member Jong, 00:58:42.263 --> 00:58:46.232 south. Uh, council member Jong, thank you, um. We, when we were 00:58:46.234 --> 00:58:47.867 thank you, um. We, when we were looking at, based on our 00:58:47.869 --> 00:58:49.669 looking at, based on our experiences which, which we 00:58:49.671 --> 00:58:51.471 experiences which, which we have not seen much for parking, 00:58:51.473 --> 00:58:54.406 have not seen much for parking, um. You know, they're, there, 00:58:54.408 --> 00:58:56.542 um. You know, they're, there, there have been special event 00:58:56.544 --> 00:58:57.743 there have been special event parking circumstances, uh, for 00:58:57.745 --> 00:58:58.812 parking circumstances, uh, for the for the park as well as for 00:58:58.814 --> 00:59:00.746 the for the park as well as for the school, the school's trying 00:59:00.748 --> 00:59:02.548 the school, the school's trying to discourage that, um, but we 00:59:02.550 --> 00:59:04.550 to discourage that, um, but we also noticed that there are, 00:59:04.552 --> 00:59:07.353 also noticed that there are, there are of the very few 00:59:07.355 --> 00:59:08.354 there are of the very few properties that have direct 00:59:08.356 --> 00:59:10.423 properties that have direct access, have driveways to 101st 00:59:10.425 --> 00:59:12.024 access, have driveways to 101st Avenue, uh, the vast majority 00:59:12.026 --> 00:59:13.759 Avenue, uh, the vast majority of those are on the north side. 00:59:13.761 --> 00:59:16.563 of those are on the north side. I mean, we're talking 6 or 7 00:59:16.565 --> 00:59:17.997 I mean, we're talking 6 or 7 total properties, but all but I 00:59:17.999 --> 00:59:20.033 total properties, but all but I think two of those are on the 00:59:20.035 --> 00:59:21.834 think two of those are on the north side of 101st Avenue and 00:59:21.836 --> 00:59:22.569 north side of 101st Avenue and so we thought, well, if there 00:59:22.571 --> 00:59:23.970 so we thought, well, if there are. people that are going to 00:59:23.972 --> 00:59:25.572 are. people that are going to use it, you know, potentially 00:59:25.574 --> 00:59:27.206 use it, you know, potentially that that would, those would be 00:59:27.208 --> 00:59:29.242 that that would, those would be the people with the driveways 00:59:29.244 --> 00:59:30.643 the people with the driveways to the to 101st Avenue, so 00:59:30.645 --> 00:59:32.579 to the to 101st Avenue, so that's, that's the reasoning we 00:59:32.581 --> 00:59:35.448 that's, that's the reasoning we used, um, but it's, it's, it's 00:59:35.450 --> 00:59:37.917 used, um, but it's, it's, it's wide open. There, there isn't 00:59:37.919 --> 00:59:39.986 wide open. There, there isn't strong engineering, uh, 00:59:39.988 --> 00:59:40.587 strong engineering, uh, reasoning for either side, to 00:59:40.589 --> 00:59:41.788 reasoning for either side, to be honest with you, and to be 00:59:41.790 --> 00:59:44.524 be honest with you, and to be honest, probably the most 00:59:44.526 --> 00:59:47.527 honest, probably the most recurring, um, Dance, uh, on 00:59:47.529 --> 00:59:48.594 recurring, um, Dance, uh, on street parking would be for the 00:59:48.596 --> 00:59:49.929 street parking would be for the farm, which would be on the 00:59:49.931 --> 00:59:51.931 farm, which would be on the south side of 101st Avenue, so 00:59:51.933 --> 00:59:53.466 south side of 101st Avenue, so Awesome. Thank you for 00:59:53.468 --> 00:59:55.201 Awesome. Thank you for clarifying that. That's all 00:59:55.203 --> 00:59:58.004 clarifying that. That's all that I have. All right, so next 00:59:58.006 --> 00:59:59.138 that I have. All right, so next we have uh council member 00:59:59.140 --> 01:00:04.610 we have uh council member McGarvey. Thank you, Mayor. Um, 01:00:04.612 --> 01:00:06.979 McGarvey. Thank you, Mayor. Um, We touched on this, but do we 01:00:06.981 --> 01:00:08.681 We touched on this, but do we have a ballpark figure of what 01:00:08.683 --> 01:00:11.417 have a ballpark figure of what signage costs. Because, and 01:00:11.419 --> 01:00:12.785 signage costs. Because, and then how long, how long of a 01:00:12.787 --> 01:00:14.020 then how long, how long of a stretch of road are we talking 01:00:14.022 --> 01:00:16.355 stretch of road are we talking about here? Yeah, I think, and 01:00:16.357 --> 01:00:18.157 about here? Yeah, I think, and I should have that answer and I 01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:19.692 I should have that answer and I apologize, Councilor McGarvey. 01:00:19.694 --> 01:00:21.161 apologize, Councilor McGarvey. I should know that, that, uh, 01:00:21.163 --> 01:00:23.629 I should know that, that, uh, answer, but I think we're 01:00:23.631 --> 01:00:27.400 answer, but I think we're looking at about, about 1 mile 01:00:27.402 --> 01:00:30.369 looking at about, about 1 mile in length uh from Zane to 01:00:30.371 --> 01:00:35.308 in length uh from Zane to Falgold, um. And it I'm 01:00:35.310 --> 01:00:38.711 Falgold, um. And it I'm guessing, I mean, the signs are 01:00:38.713 --> 01:00:40.780 guessing, I mean, the signs are to furnish and install a sign 01:00:40.782 --> 01:00:43.182 to furnish and install a sign for parking, you know, is on 01:00:43.184 --> 01:00:45.184 for parking, you know, is on the magnitude of $100 to $150 a 01:00:45.186 --> 01:00:47.720 the magnitude of $100 to $150 a sign probably. Um, we'd be 01:00:47.722 --> 01:00:50.590 sign probably. Um, we'd be looking at. Several, you know. 01:00:50.592 --> 01:00:52.491 looking at. Several, you know. If we're, if we're putting no 01:00:52.493 --> 01:00:53.926 If we're, if we're putting no parking on one side of the 01:00:53.928 --> 01:00:55.394 parking on one side of the street, you're probably putting 01:00:55.396 --> 01:00:58.998 street, you're probably putting those signs. You know, maybe 01:00:59.000 --> 01:01:01.867 those signs. You know, maybe every 200 ft 150 ft 200 ft, 01:01:01.869 --> 01:01:02.868 every 200 ft 150 ft 200 ft, something along those on, on 01:01:02.870 --> 01:01:05.605 something along those on, on average, we'd have an 01:01:05.607 --> 01:01:08.140 average, we'd have an occasional bike lane sign, uh, 01:01:08.142 --> 01:01:09.508 occasional bike lane sign, uh, through there, so, I mean, 01:01:09.510 --> 01:01:11.344 through there, so, I mean, we're we're talking thousands 01:01:11.346 --> 01:01:14.947 we're we're talking thousands of dollars, um, for signage, um, 01:01:14.949 --> 01:01:17.283 of dollars, um, for signage, um, and then, you know, the 01:01:17.285 --> 01:01:18.417 and then, you know, the striping could get that, that's 01:01:18.419 --> 01:01:19.285 striping could get that, that's a little more spending just 01:01:19.287 --> 01:01:22.521 a little more spending just because it's a much longer line, 01:01:22.523 --> 01:01:23.690 because it's a much longer line, we'd probably use epoxy uh to 01:01:23.692 --> 01:01:24.690 we'd probably use epoxy uh to make it last longer, so that 01:01:24.692 --> 01:01:26.225 make it last longer, so that would be a, a larger cost, but 01:01:26.227 --> 01:01:28.227 would be a, a larger cost, but still in the. Total magnitude 01:01:28.229 --> 01:01:30.896 still in the. Total magnitude of $30,000 to $50,000 probably. 01:01:30.898 --> 01:01:34.233 of $30,000 to $50,000 probably. OK. So, We'd be saving a couple 01:01:34.235 --> 01:01:35.368 OK. So, We'd be saving a couple $2000 anyway if we put parking 01:01:35.370 --> 01:01:37.436 $2000 anyway if we put parking on one side of the street. Yes, 01:01:37.438 --> 01:01:42.174 on one side of the street. Yes, potentially, yes. council 01:01:42.176 --> 01:01:48.480 potentially, yes. council member page. Thank you, Mayor. 01:01:48.482 --> 01:01:49.849 member page. Thank you, Mayor. I just wanted to go back. I 01:01:49.851 --> 01:01:50.850 I just wanted to go back. I thought it was point of 01:01:50.852 --> 01:01:52.285 thought it was point of information, so I'm still 01:01:52.287 --> 01:01:54.387 information, so I'm still learning on what to say, um, 01:01:54.389 --> 01:01:55.721 learning on what to say, um, but for the discussion for 01:01:55.723 --> 01:01:57.523 but for the discussion for council member Tran, it's my 01:01:57.525 --> 01:01:59.058 council member Tran, it's my understanding that everyone was 01:01:59.060 --> 01:02:02.528 understanding that everyone was notified properly through The 01:02:02.530 --> 01:02:04.330 notified properly through The letters and really the bike 01:02:04.332 --> 01:02:06.733 letters and really the bike lanes coming, right? So we're 01:02:06.735 --> 01:02:08.200 lanes coming, right? So we're going to have it, so it's a 01:02:08.202 --> 01:02:10.269 going to have it, so it's a matter of the parking question 01:02:10.271 --> 01:02:16.209 matter of the parking question where The major Groups affected 01:02:16.211 --> 01:02:17.877 where The major Groups affected are the farm and the school and 01:02:17.879 --> 01:02:19.111 are the farm and the school and the school has said we really 01:02:19.113 --> 01:02:19.879 the school has said we really don't want them parking there 01:02:19.881 --> 01:02:21.680 don't want them parking there anyway, so it's a non-issue for 01:02:21.682 --> 01:02:25.685 anyway, so it's a non-issue for them, right? Correct. I don't 01:02:25.687 --> 01:02:27.420 them, right? Correct. I don't know if this is a point or it's 01:02:27.422 --> 01:02:30.022 know if this is a point or it's a discussion, but it just seems 01:02:30.024 --> 01:02:34.760 a discussion, but it just seems like the The residents have 01:02:34.762 --> 01:02:37.830 like the The residents have been notified and it's not. A 01:02:37.832 --> 01:02:39.832 been notified and it's not. A concern for the residents at 01:02:39.834 --> 01:02:41.301 concern for the residents at this point, so, uh, that would 01:02:41.303 --> 01:02:48.974 this point, so, uh, that would just be my general discussion. 01:02:48.976 --> 01:02:52.111 just be my general discussion.

We don't want kids 01:03:17.939 --> 01:03:18.938 want it. We don't want kids crossing a busy street to get 01:03:18.940 --> 01:03:20.206 crossing a busy street to get to the farm if there's overflow 01:03:20.208 --> 01:03:23.209 to the farm if there's overflow parking.

It took me 7 months to 01:18:54.742 --> 01:18:57.075 I am. It took me 7 months to accept this. Because of the 01:18:57.077 --> 01:18:59.610 accept this. Because of the very reason you just did it, 01:18:59.612 --> 01:19:01.146 very reason you just did it, but I'm not God. God is in 01:19:01.148 --> 01:19:04.916 but I'm not God. God is in charge. God will bring somebody 01:19:04.918 --> 01:19:05.617 charge. God will bring somebody who also said for the community. 01:19:05.619 --> 01:19:08.353 who also said for the community. And you can count on me anytime. 01:19:08.355 --> 01:19:11.823 And you can count on me anytime.

Whatever advice you need from me, 01:19:16.996 --> 01:19:18.096 advice you need from me, because I believe that mostly, 01:19:18.098 --> 01:19:19.831 because I believe that mostly, and I will say that today, 01:19:19.833 --> 01:19:21.700 and I will say that today, mostly we don't know each other 01:19:21.702 --> 01:19:25.303 mostly we don't know each other very well. Yes, the imam title 01:19:25.305 --> 01:19:27.172 very well. Yes, the imam title is in our house I be Imam for 01:19:27.174 --> 01:19:29.240 is in our house I be Imam for over 40 years before I came to 01:19:29.242 --> 01:19:30.008 over 40 years before I came to the United States. But there 01:19:30.010 --> 01:19:32.277 the United States. But there are other things that they did. 01:19:32.279 --> 01:19:33.512 are other things that they did. That it will shock even the 01:19:33.514 --> 01:19:34.913 That it will shock even the mayor. He's our friend, he 01:19:34.915 --> 01:19:36.247 mayor. He's our friend, he doesn't know. My friend Keith 01:19:36.249 --> 01:19:38.784 doesn't know. My friend Keith Allison, he doesn't know. Send 01:19:38.786 --> 01:19:39.651 Allison, he doesn't know. Send Amy Klovis doesn't, none of, 01:19:39.653 --> 01:19:41.786 Amy Klovis doesn't, none of, nobody knows. I never told my 01:19:41.788 --> 01:19:43.788 nobody knows. I never told my congressional friends. Before I 01:19:43.790 --> 01:19:45.190 congressional friends. Before I came to the United States, I 01:19:45.192 --> 01:19:46.391 came to the United States, I was in the House of 01:19:46.393 --> 01:19:48.927 was in the House of Representatives. When I left 01:19:48.929 --> 01:19:51.263 Representatives. When I left the house I went to the Senate. 01:19:51.265 --> 01:19:53.865 the house I went to the Senate. I spent more than 10 years in 01:19:53.867 --> 01:19:57.068 I spent more than 10 years in Liberia Congress. So Everything 01:19:57.070 --> 01:19:59.271 Liberia Congress. So Everything you do here is not strange to 01:19:59.273 --> 01:20:02.607 you do here is not strange to us. It's something we've done. 01:20:02.609 --> 01:20:04.042 us. It's something we've done. Many times, you understand? And 01:20:04.044 --> 01:20:05.676 Many times, you understand? And that's why I value the work you 01:20:05.678 --> 01:20:07.479 that's why I value the work you do, because most of the time we 01:20:07.481 --> 01:20:08.947 do, because most of the time we don't appreciate service. The 01:20:08.949 --> 01:20:10.882 don't appreciate service. The money will pay you, it's not 01:20:10.884 --> 01:20:13.752 money will pay you, it's not enough. The time you take to, 01:20:13.754 --> 01:20:14.485 enough. The time you take to, to govern us is more than the 01:20:14.487 --> 01:20:17.355 to govern us is more than the money. So you've gotta be 01:20:17.357 --> 01:20:18.089 money. So you've gotta be sacrificing like the mayor. How 01:20:18.091 --> 01:20:26.164 sacrificing like the mayor. How much do they pay the mayor? 01:20:26.166 --> 01:20:28.766 much do they pay the mayor? Maybe $15,000. So I want to say 01:20:28.768 --> 01:20:30.435 Maybe $15,000. So I want to say I, I don't know, maybe before I 01:20:30.437 --> 01:20:32.537 I, I don't know, maybe before I leave, I don't know whether I 01:20:32.539 --> 01:20:34.339 leave, I don't know whether I had the opportunity to come 01:20:34.341 --> 01:20:36.641 had the opportunity to come back here or to address this 01:20:36.643 --> 01:20:37.909 back here or to address this August body.

So I have a strong 01:34:30.810 --> 01:34:33.143 technology. So I have a strong interest to continue to advance 01:34:33.145 --> 01:34:35.279 interest to continue to advance our platform on Axon, um, 01:34:35.281 --> 01:34:36.547 our platform on Axon, um, include the following, which is 01:34:36.549 --> 01:34:38.415 include the following, which is really integrating our records 01:34:38.417 --> 01:34:40.450 really integrating our records management system into Axon, 01:34:40.452 --> 01:34:41.352 management system into Axon, which would ultimately infuse 01:34:41.354 --> 01:34:43.754 which would ultimately infuse our, our, a lot of our systems 01:34:43.756 --> 01:34:45.823 our, our, a lot of our systems are tasers, our um, our camera 01:34:45.825 --> 01:34:47.225 are tasers, our um, our camera system with the same platform 01:34:47.227 --> 01:34:48.225 system with the same platform as a records management system, 01:34:48.227 --> 01:34:50.094 as a records management system, what that would do for us is 01:34:50.096 --> 01:34:51.495 what that would do for us is start to allow automated report 01:34:51.497 --> 01:34:52.964 start to allow automated report writing from bindwa to camera, 01:34:52.966 --> 01:34:54.898 writing from bindwa to camera, so technology is becoming 01:34:54.900 --> 01:34:56.166 so technology is becoming advanced enough where that the 01:34:56.168 --> 01:35:00.537 advanced enough where that the um The um AI technology can 01:35:00.539 --> 01:35:02.039 um The um AI technology can actually start to watch the 01:35:02.041 --> 01:35:03.440 actually start to watch the body worn camera and write the 01:35:03.442 --> 01:35:04.975 body worn camera and write the report for the police officer 01:35:04.977 --> 01:35:06.910 report for the police officer based on what the victim said, 01:35:06.912 --> 01:35:08.312 based on what the victim said, on what the officer said and 01:35:08.314 --> 01:35:09.247 on what the officer said and what other people said, they 01:35:09.249 --> 01:35:10.381 what other people said, they can put that together and write 01:35:10.383 --> 01:35:11.649 can put that together and write the report for the officer. It 01:35:11.651 --> 01:35:14.251 the report for the officer. It clearly has to be approved, um, 01:35:14.253 --> 01:35:15.253 clearly has to be approved, um, one of the other really 01:35:15.255 --> 01:35:16.988 one of the other really interesting things is the 01:35:16.990 --> 01:35:17.922 interesting things is the quality control measures that 01:35:17.924 --> 01:35:20.391 quality control measures that this software can now watch all 01:35:20.393 --> 01:35:22.326 this software can now watch all the body worn camera and 01:35:22.328 --> 01:35:24.295 the body worn camera and immediately alert the sergeant 01:35:24.297 --> 01:35:25.729 immediately alert the sergeant if there's um inappropriate 01:35:25.731 --> 01:35:26.931 if there's um inappropriate language by the officer if 01:35:26.933 --> 01:35:28.265 language by the officer if there's discriminatory. conduct 01:35:28.267 --> 01:35:29.934 there's discriminatory. conduct by the officer, inappropriate 01:35:29.936 --> 01:35:31.735 by the officer, inappropriate conduct, it would automatically 01:35:31.737 --> 01:35:33.604 conduct, it would automatically alert that sergeant that that 01:35:33.606 --> 01:35:35.873 alert that sergeant that that activity took place, um, also 01:35:35.875 --> 01:35:37.341 activity took place, um, also this new advanced system would 01:35:37.343 --> 01:35:38.942 this new advanced system would um integrate storage of all 01:35:38.944 --> 01:35:39.877 um integrate storage of all digital evidence, as you can 01:35:39.879 --> 01:35:41.145 digital evidence, as you can see the amount of digital 01:35:41.147 --> 01:35:43.281 see the amount of digital evidence that we are gathering 01:35:43.283 --> 01:35:44.281 evidence that we are gathering is becoming massive and 01:35:44.283 --> 01:35:46.016 is becoming massive and managing that is a real problem. 01:35:46.018 --> 01:35:47.484 managing that is a real problem. And then we also have the 01:35:47.486 --> 01:35:49.420 And then we also have the transfer all of our old body 01:35:49.422 --> 01:35:51.289 transfer all of our old body camera videos that is literally 01:35:51.291 --> 01:35:53.423 camera videos that is literally on DVDs, um, we would be able 01:35:53.425 --> 01:35:56.860 on DVDs, um, we would be able to embed that and store that. 01:35:56.862 --> 01:35:59.830 to embed that and store that. With that, it was rather fast, 01:35:59.832 --> 01:36:00.497 With that, it was rather fast, but I will stand for any 01:36:00.499 --> 01:36:05.502 but I will stand for any questions.

So if there's a a 01:37:10.770 --> 01:37:12.303 right to it. So if there's a a traffic stop and the drivers on 01:37:12.305 --> 01:37:14.038 traffic stop and the drivers on body worn camera, they have a 01:37:14.040 --> 01:37:15.306 body worn camera, they have a right to that footage, um, but 01:37:15.308 --> 01:37:16.240 right to that footage, um, but if there's other people that 01:37:16.242 --> 01:37:17.107 if there's other people that are captured in that footage, 01:37:17.109 --> 01:37:18.442 are captured in that footage, and they have to be redacted. 01:37:18.444 --> 01:37:21.345 and they have to be redacted. So we have staff that do the 01:37:21.347 --> 01:37:22.646 So we have staff that do the redacting of uh voices and face 01:37:22.648 --> 01:37:25.182 redacting of uh voices and face of other people.

Thank you, Chief 01:37:55.948 --> 01:37:57.915 you, Mayor. Thank you, Chief Burley. Uh, one question, I 01:37:57.917 --> 01:37:59.149 Burley. Uh, one question, I apologize if you already said 01:37:59.151 --> 01:38:02.052 apologize if you already said this, but what? For what time 01:38:02.054 --> 01:38:03.854 this, but what? For what time duration do you guys keep data? 01:38:03.856 --> 01:38:06.089 duration do you guys keep data? You keep your video. Mayor 01:38:06.091 --> 01:38:08.492 You keep your video. Mayor Winston, uh, council members, 01:38:08.494 --> 01:38:09.627 Winston, uh, council members, council member Kanowski, um, we 01:38:09.629 --> 01:38:12.029 council member Kanowski, um, we have a, we follow a state 01:38:12.031 --> 01:38:13.430 have a, we follow a state guidelines on data. I believe 01:38:13.432 --> 01:38:15.366 guidelines on data. I believe it's 7 years for just straight 01:38:15.368 --> 01:38:17.768 it's 7 years for just straight video, so, um, uh, any if if 01:38:17.770 --> 01:38:21.571 video, so, um, uh, any if if it's a, a traffic stop today, 01:38:21.573 --> 01:38:22.439 it's a, a traffic stop today, um, when it's officer Hazard by 01:38:22.441 --> 01:38:23.507 um, when it's officer Hazard by wearing camera on that we would 01:38:23.509 --> 01:38:24.441 wearing camera on that we would retain that for 7 years and 01:38:24.443 --> 01:38:26.777 retain that for 7 years and then it would fall off. Um, and 01:38:26.779 --> 01:38:28.245 then it would fall off. Um, and that's just some action was 01:38:28.247 --> 01:38:30.780 that's just some action was taken. If it's a video where an 01:38:30.782 --> 01:38:32.449 taken. If it's a video where an officer, um, turns on their 01:38:32.451 --> 01:38:33.383 officer, um, turns on their camera and there was no action 01:38:33.385 --> 01:38:34.718 camera and there was no action taken, so there was, let's say 01:38:34.720 --> 01:38:37.053 taken, so there was, let's say they take a report about. Uh, a 01:38:37.055 --> 01:38:37.921 they take a report about. Uh, a missing lawn mower and that 01:38:37.923 --> 01:38:39.189 missing lawn mower and that lawn mower is falling the next 01:38:39.191 --> 01:38:41.859 lawn mower is falling the next day. Um, it is very in that 01:38:41.861 --> 01:38:42.726 day. Um, it is very in that video would last for 30 days 01:38:42.728 --> 01:38:44.328 video would last for 30 days and then fall off the system. 01:38:44.330 --> 01:38:45.729 and then fall off the system. So it's kind of category 01:38:45.731 --> 01:38:46.796 So it's kind of category depends on the category. If it 01:38:46.798 --> 01:38:48.866 depends on the category. If it involves a homicide, it's 01:38:48.868 --> 01:38:49.733 involves a homicide, it's indefinitely. Um, if it's a 01:38:49.735 --> 01:38:51.034 indefinitely. Um, if it's a criminal case, it stays with a 01:38:51.036 --> 01:38:52.503 criminal case, it stays with a criminal case and then 7 years 01:38:52.505 --> 01:38:54.471 criminal case and then 7 years after that. So, quite honestly, 01:38:54.473 --> 01:38:56.874 after that. So, quite honestly, it really depends on on how the 01:38:56.876 --> 01:38:58.408 it really depends on on how the the data is categorized or how 01:38:58.410 --> 01:38:59.943 the data is categorized or how it was captured. OK, yeah, 01:38:59.945 --> 01:39:01.344 it was captured. OK, yeah, thank you. That's a lot of data 01:39:01.346 --> 01:39:03.680 thank you. That's a lot of data to keep for a long time. OK, 01:39:03.682 --> 01:39:13.323 to keep for a long time. OK, thank you. Appreciate it. Any 01:39:13.325 --> 01:39:17.761 thank you. Appreciate it. Any further questions or comments? 01:39:17.763 --> 01:39:21.298 further questions or comments? I think, um, I mean, maybe in 01:39:21.300 --> 01:39:22.566 I think, um, I mean, maybe in some one on ones I don't want 01:39:22.568 --> 01:39:23.500 some one on ones I don't want to understand, you know, what 01:39:23.502 --> 01:39:25.035 to understand, you know, what we can do with some of that 01:39:25.037 --> 01:39:26.570 we can do with some of that data or some of the long term 01:39:26.572 --> 01:39:27.871 data or some of the long term trends we can begin to 01:39:27.873 --> 01:39:29.339 trends we can begin to understand, but I know that it 01:39:29.341 --> 01:39:30.774 understand, but I know that it takes a while to kind of dive 01:39:30.776 --> 01:39:32.309 takes a while to kind of dive into that amount of data and, 01:39:32.311 --> 01:39:34.177 into that amount of data and, and, uh, their specific 01:39:34.179 --> 01:39:34.912 and, uh, their specific services that do all of that, 01:39:34.914 --> 01:39:36.713 services that do all of that, but I do think that it would be 01:39:36.715 --> 01:39:38.716 but I do think that it would be nice if as a council we could. 01:39:38.718 --> 01:39:39.783 nice if as a council we could. Learn a little bit more about 01:39:39.785 --> 01:39:41.652 Learn a little bit more about what we can do with that, just 01:39:41.654 --> 01:39:43.587 what we can do with that, just to help improve the city, help 01:39:43.589 --> 01:39:44.454 to help improve the city, help us understand trends going 01:39:44.456 --> 01:39:47.458 us understand trends going forward as well, so. Right, I 01:39:47.460 --> 01:39:49.326 forward as well, so. Right, I don't, I have no further 01:39:49.328 --> 01:39:50.260 don't, I have no further comments or questions. So thank 01:39:50.262 --> 01:39:51.595 comments or questions. So thank you, Chief. Uh, thank you for 01:39:51.597 --> 01:39:55.533 you, Chief.

We will head into council member reports and 01:40:03.676 --> 01:40:06.944 into council member reports and announcements. Council member 01:40:06.946 --> 01:40:16.486 announcements. Council member Tran. I, I just want to share, 01:40:16.488 --> 01:40:18.689 Tran. I, I just want to share, uh, I want to bring this up, uh, 01:40:18.691 --> 01:40:22.960 uh, I want to bring this up, uh, because, um, Uh, usually, we 01:40:22.962 --> 01:40:25.696 because, um, Uh, usually, we forget about that. When the 01:40:25.698 --> 01:40:28.165 forget about that. When the city send letter to people, we 01:40:28.167 --> 01:40:31.435 city send letter to people, we assume that They already got it. 01:40:31.437 --> 01:40:33.971 assume that They already got it. They know about that, but uh We 01:40:33.973 --> 01:40:38.575 They know about that, but uh We have like More than half are in 01:40:38.577 --> 01:40:41.144 have like More than half are in the city are no white 01:40:41.146 --> 01:40:44.648 the city are no white population and many are 01:40:44.650 --> 01:40:46.083 population and many are Language barriers, um, and then 01:40:46.085 --> 01:40:46.984 Language barriers, um, and then another thing is that the fact 01:40:46.986 --> 01:40:50.621 another thing is that the fact is that Included me, my 01:40:50.623 --> 01:40:52.055 is that Included me, my neighborhood, and then resident, 01:40:52.057 --> 01:40:55.592 neighborhood, and then resident, they keep coming to me and this 01:40:55.594 --> 01:40:57.928 they keep coming to me and this happening for several years, uh, 01:40:57.930 --> 01:41:01.364 happening for several years, uh, that we lost mail on the mail, 01:41:01.366 --> 01:41:04.134 that we lost mail on the mail, the people mail delivery, uh, 01:41:04.136 --> 01:41:07.671 the people mail delivery, uh, Couldn't read the address. 01:41:07.673 --> 01:41:10.073 Couldn't read the address. correctly, or couldn't read the 01:41:10.075 --> 01:41:10.741 correctly, or couldn't read the number correctly. And that's 01:41:10.743 --> 01:41:15.679 number correctly.
