confusion with the cbta so um linkage 25 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,840 studies are um ideas federally funded 26 00:06:12,840 --> 00:06:16,240 where the idea is to do a study and to 27 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,840 see um the merits of a project and to 28 00:06:18,840 --> 00:06:20,759 try to flush out a project prior to 29 00:06:20,759 --> 00:06:22,880 going actually for any kind of federal 30 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:30,390 funding 31 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:42,150 to hit 32 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,720 this there we go so before this we had a 33 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,440 project team uh project team was cap 34 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,080 region Transportation Council the uh 35 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,880 city is connected Alex fire Rec for team 36 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,599 fromo syvia uh myself and uh even 37 00:06:54,599 --> 00:06:56,160 Christen de when she was here we had a 38 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,160 design team with fuss and O'Neal landard 39 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,080 Studios Mutual design great Manning 40 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,000 engineering and then we had a study 41 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,560 advisory committee study advisory 42 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,479 committee is is very important um as 43 00:07:06,479 --> 00:07:08,879 they're usually made up of of the 44 00:07:08,879 --> 00:07:10,440 stakeholders and the investors in the 45 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,840 area um they are essentially that bridge 46 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,240 between the public necessarily and the 47 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,840 city staff uh so we had a meeting with 48 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,319 the study advisory committee as well um 49 00:07:21,319 --> 00:07:23,000 to a brief agenda overview with the 50 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,960 existing conditions Al Street Crane 51 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,160 Street christler remain have 52 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,759 Concepts um I'll show you the study area 53 00:07:29,759 --> 00:07:31,599 probably have came before so the study 54 00:07:31,599 --> 00:07:35,120 area you see here is Albany Street from 55 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,840 verer Avenue to Brandy line Crane Street 56 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,160 from Broadway up to O strander Norwood 57 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,400 uh Chrysler Avenue and Maine as you see 58 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,520 uh so most St primar on Pleasant but 59 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,680 then there is that Corridor and 60 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:56,759 Hamilton um so what is a complete Street uh is where we no longer 61 00:07:56,759 --> 00:07:58,720 just think of a roadway as a place for 62 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,120 vehicles so a roadway is a place for 63 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,919 pedestrians Vehicles bicyclists dog 64 00:08:04,919 --> 00:08:06,680 walkers it is a people place for people 65 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,680 to sit it should be inviting it should 66 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,560 be safe um complete Street studies um 67 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,919 really came around in the last decade um 68 00:08:13,919 --> 00:08:15,560 if you've seen intersections that were 69 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,479 built in the 80s usually that was before 70 00:08:17,479 --> 00:08:19,199 complete streets that's why a lot of 71 00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:20,479 things that were built in the 70s and ' 72 00:08:20,479 --> 00:08:22,759 80s come out very cold a lot of concrete 73 00:08:22,759 --> 00:08:24,280 not a lot of those complete streets 74 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,520 thing elements in it last complete 75 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,199 streets study that we did was the 76 00:08:28,199 --> 00:08:31,159 linkage study for right in Maine and we 77 00:08:31,159 --> 00:08:33,399 are implementing that now so you know 78 00:08:33,399 --> 00:08:35,399 this is something that we are familiar 79 00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:38,519 with um safety assessment so working 80 00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:40,640 with the SPD we did uh you know safety 81 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,719 assessment of crashes in the areas so 82 00:08:42,719 --> 00:08:47,160 you see the the left figure that is the Crane Street Corridor and the upper 83 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,680 right that that red and uh blue line is 84 00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:51,720 Albany Street so you see it was a high 85 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,680 segment of crashes 20% of injury right 86 00:08:54,680 --> 00:08:56,360 angle uh and then they had the BCE 87 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,800 crashes uh greater number on Aly Street 88 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,279 which is 14 key um and you know we like 89 00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:04,560 to say that these corridors these are commercial corridors in the 90 00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:06,160 neighborhoods and we are seeing 91 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,160 investments into them so you see the 92 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,720 library um we have the new depal housing 93 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,680 project Mosaic Apartments uh so there 94 00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:14,399 are things happening on all of these 95 00:09:14,399 --> 00:09:17,200 areas these are commercial corers um and 96 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,360 one of the things that we're trying to 97 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,160 break out of like we like to call it is 98 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,640 this vicious vicious circle of Po 99 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,200 walking and driving commission so if you 100 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,040 see up here you know everything has to 101 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,440 work together to really make it an 102 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,519 impact if you have no curbs then you 103 00:09:31,519 --> 00:09:34,240 have people who Park up on the sidewalks 104 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,760 then you have people that don't walk on 105 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,440 the sidewalk so they may walk in the 106 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,519 road uh if you don't have the street 107 00:09:39,519 --> 00:09:41,440 trees and you have what visually 108 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,240 perceived is a wide Corridor so parking 109 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,200 uh you know not parking but speeds may 110 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,440 go up so you know these are some uh 111 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,320 sample conditions along the corridor of 112 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,640 what we have and then you know this is 113 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,200 the impacts we're saying unsafe walking 114 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,040 uh lack of shade really unsightly you 115 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:00,440 know that's one of the things that we 116 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:01,880 get is that you know some of our street 117 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,000 corridors are unsightly a lot of 118 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,440 increased speeds uh and you know promote 119 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,399 speeding crashs and uh and bicyclist 120 00:10:09,399 --> 00:10:11,279 don't like it as much so one of the 121 00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:12,839 biggest things that we always do and I 122 00:10:12,839 --> 00:10:14,720 think SCCY really stands out when we do 123 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,279 our projects is our community engagement 124 00:10:17,279 --> 00:10:19,240 um we really strive with Community 125 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,079 engagement a lot of shetes um there was 126 00:10:22,079 --> 00:10:23,519 even more information in this 127 00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:25,120 presentation which I kind of took out 128 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:26,800 because I wanted to make this you know a 129 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,120 quicker presentation and all the 130 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,320 information is within the report itself 131 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,959 but these are just some samples of what 132 00:10:31,959 --> 00:10:34,560 we did we do a lot with interaction 133 00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:37,200 putting stickers on boards trying to see 134 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,399 um what people really want to see out of 135 00:10:39,399 --> 00:10:42,000 the community and out of the project so 136 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,680 you know how we have our public Outreach 137 00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:45,360 we did a lot of public Outreach things 138 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,120 we did meetings in both Hamilton Hill 139 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,880 and Mount Pleasant we did not pick one 140 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,560 location and say come to this we wanted 141 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:53,160 to make sure that we had locations in 142 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,040 both neighborhoods so we met at the 143 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,600 library we also met at Community 144 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,680 Ministries on all street so we went 145 00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:00,120 there we also had our stakeholder 146 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,680 meetings there which were valuable um 147 00:11:03,680 --> 00:11:06,320 and then additionally we conducted like 148 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,720 we talked about the more Focus 149 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,240 stakeholders meetings and the 150 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:14,480 stakeholders were with um neighborhood leaders and uh like it says 151 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,320 Emergency Services we met with both the 152 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,839 police and the fire department we met 153 00:11:17,839 --> 00:11:19,959 with the CDTA we've had meetings with 154 00:11:19,959 --> 00:11:21,720 the school district so we really wanted 155 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,040 to make sure that we engage with 156 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,560 everyone in this project um there you 157 00:11:25,560 --> 00:11:27,160 see a picture of morrice you know he was 158 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:28,880 out with the development tent you know 159 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:30,560 we're really trying to get to people one 160 00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:32,600 of the things that we have to do is we 161 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,639 have to find you you know we set up 162 00:11:34,639 --> 00:11:36,560 these tents on the corridors and we go 163 00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:38,279 right to you and we try to engage with 164 00:11:38,279 --> 00:11:40,200 you just because we know that it's 165 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,360 difficult for people to understand and 166 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,440 coming to us so you see that here 167 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,399 collaborating with youth uh we work with 168 00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:48,760 youth and we help hand out Flyers Flyers 169 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,440 try to drive you to the website when you 170 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,920 get to the website try to get some 171 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,880 interaction from them uh to fill out 172 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,160 some of our survey about what they'd 173 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,360 like to see um this is another uh sh on 174 00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,720 Albany Street where we were just trying 175 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,560 to get people who were on Albany Street 176 00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:03,800 to go through and and tell us what they 177 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,040 thought of their Concepts um and then we 178 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,160 have uh this was the one another one on 179 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,720 Crane Street where we have this was out 180 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,480 in front of the library where we're 181 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,880 still trying to get people to put down 182 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,600 their ideas uh and see what this 183 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,040 Corridor could 184 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,040 be so uh I will say go into the design 185 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,160 recommendations I will say one of the 186 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,519 outcomes uh that I will say with Albany 187 00:12:26,519 --> 00:12:29,880 Street in particular was Al Street a lot 188 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,720 of people on that road felt that Albany 189 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,959 Street was the backyard of State Street 190 00:12:34,959 --> 00:12:37,600 that State Street was the front the 191 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,079 facades the businesses and a lot of Aly 192 00:12:40,079 --> 00:12:42,279 Street was just the rear end and the 193 00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:44,839 access and the parking so we did we did 194 00:12:44,839 --> 00:12:47,360 try to take note of that so we have our 195 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,000 design representations uh like I said 196 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,959 before and all the graphical uh 197 00:12:51,959 --> 00:12:54,120 information all the backup to this 198 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,800 there's you know numerous appendices and 199 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,880 things that can be found in the report 200 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,839 itself so the first road that we start 201 00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:01,720 with is Aly Street I apologize for the 202 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,760 size because we just did it but I'll 203 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,399 just kind of summarize here that let 204 00:13:06,399 --> 00:13:08,399 again a lot of people just felt like Al 205 00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:10,800 Street wasn't focused um here what we 206 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,360 have is we're going to start on beater 207 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,440 and we're just going to work our way up 208 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,040 to Brandy Wine so if you can see uh on 209 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,240 the right one of the things that we're 210 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,240 looking to implement was what's called a 211 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,000 climbing Lane for bicycles so we don't 212 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,760 have a lot of real estate on Albany 213 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,959 Street so coming down Albany Street 214 00:13:26,959 --> 00:13:28,760 keeping up with traffic and feeling 215 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,279 comfortable go is fine but going up 216 00:13:30,279 --> 00:13:31,760 Albany Street where you're probably a 217 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,639 little bit more struggling as opposed to 218 00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:36,519 a car to get up that grade we proposed a 219 00:13:36,519 --> 00:13:38,160 climbing Lane which you can see on the 220 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,000 bottom right climbing Lane goes all the 221 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,959 way from verer up to Craig Street uh you 222 00:13:42,959 --> 00:13:44,399 can see another example here and at 223 00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:46,399 Craig street we would then transition to 224 00:13:46,399 --> 00:13:47,800 our Craig Street Corridor where we're 225 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:49,399 going to have our cycle track and more 226 00:13:49,399 --> 00:13:51,240 bike infrastructure uh and then 227 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,639 something like this we did meet with the 228 00:13:52,639 --> 00:13:54,920 owner of Newest Lunch because Newest 229 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,160 Lunch is one of the highest volume 230 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,320 turnover of parking and we talked to him 231 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,800 about how we try widen and not impact 232 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,360 his uh his parking so he was a active 233 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,240 par participant in this um one of the 234 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:07,759 things too you'll see is a theme as we 235 00:14:07,759 --> 00:14:10,720 go is a lot of trees curb and sidewalk 236 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,600 um that's just a theme throughout that 237 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,480 having as much trees curb and sidewalk 238 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,240 as 239 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,839 possible um so here you see Albany 240 00:14:17,839 --> 00:14:19,560 Street going up to Craig you still see 241 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,800 the climbing Lane strike parking another 242 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:23,720 thing you're going to see a lot of is 243 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,399 striped parking um the striped parking 244 00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:28,320 gives that visual cue that the lane 245 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,519 isn't twice as wide as it needs to be 246 00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:32,040 the strike parking shows that this is 247 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,560 the lane and this is the parking and to 248 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,320 try to really visually neck you down um 249 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:38,720 then you have the next segment which is 250 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,920 Craig the hin and you see there's not 251 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,639 too much going on here it's just more 252 00:14:43,639 --> 00:14:46,839 streetcape trying to widen the parking 253 00:14:46,839 --> 00:14:48,160 you can see one of the things that we 254 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,320 fight on all of these is the utility 255 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,800 poles you can see these unique little 256 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,320 bump outs it's a concept I'm sure that 257 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,959 I'd have to talk to Paul about something 258 00:14:55,959 --> 00:14:57,720 like that because of the you know 259 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,079 uniqueness of having that but trying to 260 00:15:00,079 --> 00:15:02,079 move utility poles and utility poles on 261 00:15:02,079 --> 00:15:04,680 all these corridors are you know they 262 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,240 are a hindrance especially look of the 263 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,759 wires and things like that and how they 264 00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:09,959 also affect you from actually planting 265 00:15:09,959 --> 00:15:15,839 trees um then when we get up to stuben uh anyone's familiar with the 266 00:15:15,839 --> 00:15:18,639 corridor stuen is kind of a transitional 267 00:15:18,639 --> 00:15:23,519 Street on Albany uh stuen down uh to 268 00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:25,199 verer it's more of your mixed use 269 00:15:25,199 --> 00:15:27,240 commercial Corridor you have a lot of 270 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,519 businesses and things going on but 271 00:15:29,519 --> 00:15:32,800 stuen to Brandy Wine it is mostly 272 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,319 residential multifam homes and that's 273 00:15:35,319 --> 00:15:36,959 where you're seeing a lot of parking on 274 00:15:36,959 --> 00:15:39,079 the sidewalk and a lot of the the 275 00:15:39,079 --> 00:15:41,040 quality of the neighborhood just isn't 276 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,279 up to up to task because of you know 277 00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:44,319 some of these things that we're talking 278 00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:45,959 about so you if you can see that we're 279 00:15:45,959 --> 00:15:47,959 really trying to focus on establishing 280 00:15:47,959 --> 00:15:50,959 that straight curved line planting grass 281 00:15:50,959 --> 00:15:52,759 trees and really trying to reestablish 282 00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:55,920 the sidewalk on Aly street so then as we 283 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,319 move to um Crane Street Crane Street we 284 00:15:59,319 --> 00:16:00,560 tried and we talked about you know 285 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,680 Craner same thing big hill going all the 286 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,440 way up not enough real estate to put in 287 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,800 something like a climbing Lane but still 288 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,079 to put in there the the parking area 289 00:16:10,079 --> 00:16:14,079 striping and some Street trees and and 290 00:16:14,079 --> 00:16:16,240 Landscaping um and as you see as we go 291 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,040 up that's really the focus on this 292 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,360 Corridor is to just better Define the 293 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,360 curve lines the parking lanes and and 294 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,279 try to add those Street trees into the 295 00:16:25,279 --> 00:16:28,399 corridor so it is a business Corridor um 296 00:16:28,399 --> 00:16:30,079 we did work work with Metroplex on this 297 00:16:30,079 --> 00:16:32,600 Corridor as we get out because they are 298 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,319 always involved in our in our commercial 299 00:16:34,319 --> 00:16:37,120 and business districts but not too many 300 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,319 substantial changes to Crane Street uh 301 00:16:40,319 --> 00:16:42,480 as you go now this portion here you'll 302 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,399 see the intersection the intersection is 303 00:16:44,399 --> 00:16:46,000 actually part of the project that we're 304 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,959 actively pursuing right now which is to 305 00:16:48,959 --> 00:16:51,160 improve the crane price to main 306 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,360 intersection that project is underd 307 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,519 design and that was funded partially 308 00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:58,199 through a Sam Grant from Santa Barbara's 309 00:16:58,199 --> 00:16:59,880 office so what you see in the upper 310 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,480 right corner that or some configuration 311 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,799 of that is actually taking place because 312 00:17:04,799 --> 00:17:07,000 that is probably the most important 313 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,280 Lynch pin in all of this is to make sure 314 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,160 we get that intersection safe because it 315 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,240 is a very unique and I wouldn't say a 316 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,520 great intersection in the city um next 317 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:18,319 we 318 00:17:18,319 --> 00:17:20,360 have I'm sorry 319 00:17:20,360 --> 00:17:23,839 crane we on crane again this is just 320 00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:26,079 continuing up with the same so I just 321 00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:30,360 kind of interest of time so so price Avenue was an interesting one that 322 00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:32,400 we're hoping to do sooner than later if 323 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,799 anyone's familiar with Chrysler Avenue is a very odd Street 324 00:17:35,799 --> 00:17:38,960 between Norwood and Crane Street it is a 325 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,960 two-way road that is extremely narrow um 326 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:43,960 we met with the fire department the 327 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,200 police department and the school 328 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,679 district and we are looking to make 329 00:17:47,679 --> 00:17:50,440 Chrysler Avenue one way from the 330 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,880 intersection crane to norw um and that 331 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,679 would allow us you see you see how tight 332 00:17:55,679 --> 00:17:57,600 that top visual is with the two vehicles 333 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,480 in the parking we we are looking to keep 334 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,240 the width uh do a better job defining it 335 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,919 stripe parking and have it one way uh 336 00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:08,120 out of the intersection not into the 337 00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,720 intersection um that does work that was 338 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,720 the preferable way for emergency 339 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,679 services because they're mostly coming 340 00:18:14,679 --> 00:18:17,039 from the intersection in so they don't 341 00:18:17,039 --> 00:18:18,960 have to loop around they can actually go 342 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,080 and then the Bus Loop um luckily they 343 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,720 have uh both Maple and norw they can Loop it okay around there so we 344 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,880 did meet with the school district's bus 345 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,120 because this is the area that they're 346 00:18:29,120 --> 00:18:30,600 looking to turn into the Freshman 347 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,520 Academy so we wanted to be with them but 348 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:35,320 when it comes to recommendations this is 349 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,000 one that is higher on the list and also 350 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,320 with a lower cost because you know we 351 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,400 can make it one way with just an act of 352 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,400 legislation uh and some 353 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,559 signs um similar with Main Avenue Main 354 00:18:47,559 --> 00:18:50,039 Avenue this is a kind of a hold over 355 00:18:50,039 --> 00:18:52,440 from the Craig main study but we really 356 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,600 wanted to look into this one more Main 357 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,280 Avenue we have two concepts uh that we 358 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,880 haven't decided on what's going to I 359 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,320 just want to also say that what we're 360 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,039 doing today is it's a study it's a 361 00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:06,440 grouping of ideas and guidelines to go 362 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,280 forward this is not a commitment of 363 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,000 funding this is not anything that you 364 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,840 know there would still be design and all 365 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,919 so on Main Avenue we couldn't really 366 00:19:14,919 --> 00:19:17,039 make a decision on which way to go so we 367 00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:19,159 left both in so you see here we call 368 00:19:19,159 --> 00:19:21,159 this option three on Main Avenue which 369 00:19:21,159 --> 00:19:25,000 was to um narrow the road a little bit 370 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,760 eliminate the on street parking between 371 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,880 where you see Crane and will it add some 372 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,960 Street trees uh and then on the op will 373 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,799 at the forest where there was some 374 00:19:33,799 --> 00:19:35,600 parking they Remain the parking but they 375 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,080 still try to widen it so we can get the 376 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,480 street trees we can see the unique 377 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,799 little bump out for the utility poles so 378 00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:44,960 on this one you know the pedestrians are 379 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,000 on the sidewalk and everyone else shares 380 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,880 the road on the other option that we had 381 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,000 uh option two you can see that the trees 382 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,640 are removed but we have more of a shared 383 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,919 path uh trying to allow a spot for 384 00:19:57,919 --> 00:20:00,280 bicycles um we were trying to do 385 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,280 something where we could have a oneway 386 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:03,799 with bicycles in the roadway with a 387 00:20:03,799 --> 00:20:07,000 shared Lane but it got very complex uh 388 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,240 because then the other way was to send 389 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,400 them on to Forest Road Forest Road is a 390 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,520 very busy road um with the bridge 391 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:13,679 traffic and everything we weren't 392 00:20:13,679 --> 00:20:15,159 comfortable sending them there so we 393 00:20:15,159 --> 00:20:16,760 were trying to find the best way to 394 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,120 connect Craig Street where Mount 395 00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:21,360 Pleasant and pleas Valley Elementary 396 00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:24,000 School are to the corridor so this was 397 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,520 one of the options that we have here was 398 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:28,360 to just narrow the road and try to widen 399 00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:30,400 the sidewalk as much as possible to get 400 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,640 some of that space for bicycles so 401 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,120 that's why with this one there's the the 402 00:20:34,120 --> 00:20:37,960 two options um implementation like I 403 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,840 said this is It's a study it's something 404 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:43,360 that we wanted to do we feel that crane 405 00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:45,679 Albany and and cray we really feel that 406 00:20:45,679 --> 00:20:47,720 this was uh an area that we wanted to 407 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,280 focus on that's why we've investing so 408 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,679 much time and resources into the area um 409 00:20:52,679 --> 00:20:53,880 what we have right here I know it's hard 410 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,280 to read this is our implementation chart 411 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:01,280 um it has rough cost figures the ISS is is that you know cost figures are 412 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,120 okay today but by the time these things 413 00:21:03,120 --> 00:21:04,720 are implemented they're you know they're 414 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,200 old um we are looking to do like I said 415 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,520 cryor Avenue uh when we do part of the 416 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,640 crane main intersection however if you 417 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,039 can look cost for things like Albany 418 00:21:15,039 --> 00:21:17,880 Street you're you're over $7 million 419 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,080 because Albany Street I mean it's a long 420 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,000 Corridor it's commercial Corridor Albany 421 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,960 Street is very long Crane Street 422 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,120 similarly it's probably three4 size $5 423 00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:29,159 million so um the priority ation that we 424 00:21:29,159 --> 00:21:30,559 said is we really wanted to focus on 425 00:21:30,559 --> 00:21:32,600 Maine and Chrysler we think that those 426 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,480 have the most overlap between all the 427 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,880 projects and they also are one of the 428 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,320 lower cost and then move into kind of 429 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:41,880 discussing what we want to do with 430 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:46,000 Albany and Crane Street however I would 431 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,679 say that there isn't at this Venture and 432 00:21:48,679 --> 00:21:50,400 this you know a an application or 433 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,520 anything that we have to go forward with 434 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,039 it um it's just it's kind of just an 435 00:21:56,039 --> 00:21:58,600 idea of what we could do uh when 436 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,360 necessary and some of the things that we 437 00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:03,240 talked about too were um you know local 438 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,760 funding uh you know me and the team here 439 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,400 were pretty good at finding funding 440 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,960 sources so we usually get together but 441 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,200 you know not to not to say Craig Street 442 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,400 did take us a while to put together what 443 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,080 they call the funding quilt for that 444 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,480 project and it end up being a it's going 445 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,080 to be about a $10 million project when 446 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,640 it's all said and done the dot just uh 447 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,360 added some more money to it to fix the 448 00:22:24,360 --> 00:22:26,320 bridge more it's their Bridge we're 449 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,600 going to help fix it they're going to 450 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,000 pay for it um so there's a lot in there 451 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,120 and then we have the idea of you know 452 00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:35,600 maintenance uh snow pling maintenance 453 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,000 tree maintenance you know trying to make 454 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,000 sure we put the right things in place in 455 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,559 the right areas uh when we get there um 456 00:22:42,559 --> 00:22:44,000 you I would love to see less utility 457 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,799 lines and more trees but that's just not what we have sometimes in the city 458 00:22:48,799 --> 00:22:50,480 um and they do get in the way of trying 459 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,760 to you know have a 460 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,279 more green and wash landscape when we 461 00:22:55,279 --> 00:22:57,279 get into our commercial corridors I 462 00:22:57,279 --> 00:22:58,640 always know that I would love to see you 463 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,679 know Eastern Avenue with less lines you 464 00:23:01,679 --> 00:23:03,600 know and less and less power lines and 465 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:06,200 things like that so this is a quick 466 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,320 15min recap uh if anybody has any 467 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,080 questions now I could I could take them 468 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,520 over what what we're talking about so um 469 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:13,960 first of all I want to thank you and the 470 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,200 team that you been working with I know 471 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,480 this has been year project that's G 472 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,880 years for all the work and it's um I'm 473 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,320 happy to see it's finally coming to um 474 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,640 for fruition and I also um want to thank 475 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,080 you for making sure that the community 476 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,720 was is was engaged I think that's huge 477 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,840 part of making sure what the end result 478 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,679 is is something that the community you 479 00:23:32,679 --> 00:23:34,440 know supports and it just works the 480 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,480 people's lives and I think that the the 481 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,320 team being you know with mutual design 482 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,000 and Jo how and everyone coming uh from 483 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,200 the Craig Street project really has a a 484 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,880 field for how to engage with the 485 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,360 community and I really think from that 486 00:23:47,360 --> 00:23:50,200 the SKC has been doing a really cutting 487 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:51,640 Ed's job of really trying to engage 488 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,200 people and do something different you 489 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,840 know uh and that that even showed for 490 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,440 Craig Street where we had a uh public 491 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,720 meeting there and we had you know the 492 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,520 involvement there you're trying to pull 493 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,880 people from the community and uh and 494 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,679 we're we're making we're making a good 495 00:24:04,679 --> 00:24:05,919 effort with it but you know and these 496 00:24:05,919 --> 00:24:07,799 are these are good good results and good 497 00:24:07,799 --> 00:24:09,400 conversations absolutely I attended a 498 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:10,880 few of the meetings so you did get a a 499 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,360 good Bo out um I just wanted to quickly 500 00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:17,240 ask so the timeline is that we will 501 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,720 start so the timeline 502 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,200 is I guess it's it's indecisive in a way 503 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,679 there are overlap in here so the the 504 00:24:27,679 --> 00:24:29,320 intersection we had funding for 505 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,919 previously it was kind of a Lynch pin 506 00:24:30,919 --> 00:24:32,480 the intersection so we're going to work 507 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,480 on that the reason that we were waiting 508 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,480 on the intersection to start this was 509 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:39,960 that we wanted some of the 510 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,200 recommendations to be done and approved 511 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,240 before we really started so for instance 512 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,320 if we're going to redesign the crane 513 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,039 Chrysler intersection and we're going to 514 00:24:50,039 --> 00:24:52,440 implement what's recommended here which 515 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,120 is a one way of chry order the 516 00:24:54,120 --> 00:24:56,640 intersection gets designed to make sure 517 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,279 that it has a configur for a one way 518 00:24:59,279 --> 00:25:01,159 that we tell the engineers that upon the 519 00:25:01,159 --> 00:25:02,840 completion of this project price will be 520 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,960 one way if the council were to say you 521 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,799 know what we're not comfortable with one 522 00:25:06,799 --> 00:25:08,960 way we like to keep it two-way then I go 523 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,600 in that direction um so that's why we 524 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,039 kind of were waiting for this point to 525 00:25:13,039 --> 00:25:14,799 get to the next point so we've kind of 526 00:25:14,799 --> 00:25:16,960 been in a sit and wait perspective uh 527 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,799 Main Street we were really hoping that 528 00:25:18,799 --> 00:25:20,679 this study would find a way to make Main 529 00:25:20,679 --> 00:25:23,200 Street one way and Forest one way but 530 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,120 the more we got into it it was just very 531 00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:28,320 complex to do it um so that we were 532 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:30,399 trying these other options so Maine is 533 00:25:30,399 --> 00:25:31,760 probably going to be the most difficult 534 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,159 decision of them all but it should not 535 00:25:34,159 --> 00:25:36,000 affect the intersection because I 536 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,559 believe it's going to be two-way either way we do 537 00:25:39,559 --> 00:25:42,710 it 538 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,120 questions uh so regarding the Chrysler 539 00:25:45,120 --> 00:25:47,960 one lane uh with one side of parking do 540 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,320 you or can you speak to whether there'll 541 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,880 be a stronger on safety or parking CU I 542 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,480 know definitely having both sides it's 543 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,080 very tight and it's dangerous at times 544 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,559 but making this I think will improve 545 00:25:59,559 --> 00:26:01,760 just those conditions especially for the 546 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,480 workers both 547 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,960 sides you can't park on both sides now I 548 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,559 believe I think you w because it's it's 549 00:26:09,559 --> 00:26:11,320 you can we're not going to change the 550 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,440 side of the parking we're just going to 551 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,039 disallow to because if we were saying if 552 00:26:16,039 --> 00:26:17,919 a school bus were to go down that road 553 00:26:17,919 --> 00:26:19,880 and you're coming the other way you have 554 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,399 to drive up on the sidewalk you have to 555 00:26:21,399 --> 00:26:22,880 get out of the way because the lanes are 556 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,120 just too narrow and it's unfortunate how 557 00:26:25,120 --> 00:26:26,520 the development I'm not familiar with it 558 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,880 but when you're coming down chry from 559 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,679 say reram or Altimont Avenue it's 560 00:26:32,679 --> 00:26:34,919 appropriately with when you hit Norwood 561 00:26:34,919 --> 00:26:37,760 it's a hard transition to you know you 562 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,720 lose about 8 ft of Lane width and so it 563 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,640 will be a um what were we trying to say 564 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:44,840 a transition for the for the 565 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,799 neighborhood but I just you know talking 566 00:26:46,799 --> 00:26:48,880 everyone and seeing it we think it's a 567 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,240 smarter move and what we'll probably end 568 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,919 up doing is making sure that anything we 569 00:26:52,919 --> 00:26:54,320 do with the intersection does not 570 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,200 preclude us from ever changing it either 571 00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,480 going the other way you know you can see 572 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,440 that um for instance you know I've 573 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,600 gotten a lot of questions about Franklin 574 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,440 Street right outside and Franklin and 575 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,960 Clinton people have asked why is there a 576 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,600 signal facing the wrong way if this is a 577 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,240 one-way Street well part of the dri was 578 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,840 a study to make sure that we know what 579 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,520 we're doing around this area and I did 580 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,399 not want to build a brand new $200,000 581 00:27:21,399 --> 00:27:23,960 signal that was not capable of of doing 582 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,880 that um so similar to this is we're 583 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,559 going to make sure that you know modern 584 00:27:27,559 --> 00:27:29,520 controllers everything's going to be new 585 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,120 that we can do that but um we we do 586 00:27:32,120 --> 00:27:33,440 think that that's the best way to go 587 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:37,510 right now just given the width of 588 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,440 price Miss I noticed that there was 589 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,399 someone from the school district 590 00:27:42,399 --> 00:27:44,039 involved in the on the committee I was 591 00:27:44,039 --> 00:27:45,600 just wondering you know what they think 592 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,600 of the whole peace up by Pleasant Valley 593 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,200 and 594 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,360 Forest so the school district um I I've 595 00:27:54,360 --> 00:27:55,679 learned a lot about school district 596 00:27:55,679 --> 00:27:57,039 lately in some of the meetings because 597 00:27:57,039 --> 00:27:57,760 I've been involved with their 598 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,240 infrastructure structure meetings and a 599 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,240 couple of these um under uh you know Joe 600 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,000 deao who I grew up with and you know and 601 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:07,200 some of the me we've talked to we've 602 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,279 been talking about I've met some of 603 00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:09,760 their principles and some of their 604 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,640 administrators and it seems to be that 605 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:17,159 postco um transportation is not the same 606 00:28:17,159 --> 00:28:19,200 that it was preo there is a lot more 607 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,200 drop offs and then this is a trend 608 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,679 probably Nationwide and it's leading to 609 00:28:23,679 --> 00:28:26,120 a lot more confusion um so for instance 610 00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:27,600 one of the things that came up during 611 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,399 this study when we talked about one way 612 00:28:29,399 --> 00:28:31,880 was not necessarily price for one way it 613 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,799 was um the school the roads around the 614 00:28:34,799 --> 00:28:36,399 school particularly when you're talking 615 00:28:36,399 --> 00:28:39,480 about forest and how we can manage it 616 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,799 because of the amount of conflict areas 617 00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:43,519 that happened parents dropping kids off 618 00:28:43,519 --> 00:28:46,200 both ways cars stopping um there were 619 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,640 some neighbors who brought up the 620 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,559 concerns about traffic in those areas 621 00:28:49,559 --> 00:28:52,640 because of it so it was a different look 622 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,559 similarly um I'm just to tell you this 623 00:28:55,559 --> 00:28:57,320 is the best example of how things are 624 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,240 changing prior to co we did a federal 625 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,799 aid project on gildin Avenue gildin 626 00:29:02,799 --> 00:29:04,159 Avenue there's an elementary school at 627 00:29:04,159 --> 00:29:06,320 the end of gild Avenue um Name Escapes 628 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,399 me right now um they had zero 629 00:29:09,399 --> 00:29:11,760 involvement and zero issues with the 630 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,760 complete streets project that we did 631 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,760 they said it's great we look forward to 632 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,320 the road being paved thank you very much 633 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:22,120 now postco um the city in cooperation 634 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,559 with the crtc in the town of roddam is 635 00:29:24,559 --> 00:29:26,399 doing a second study because roddam 636 00:29:26,399 --> 00:29:28,279 wants to improv Curry Road and the 637 00:29:28,279 --> 00:29:29,720 school district reached out to me and 638 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,960 said we want to be involved we have a 639 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,640 lot of issues going on on the road with 640 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:37,919 drop offs so same quor same studies 641 00:29:37,919 --> 00:29:40,519 different time frame different reaction 642 00:29:40,519 --> 00:29:43,159 so we are looking at possibly teaming up 643 00:29:43,159 --> 00:29:46,559 on some kind of a traffic study um to do 644 00:29:46,559 --> 00:29:48,799 it because they weren't as concerned 645 00:29:48,799 --> 00:29:51,840 with the one way as they were forest and 646 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,480 some of their drop off areas and uh so 647 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,039 that's something that was that that was 648 00:29:56,039 --> 00:29:57,399 something that we took out of this and 649 00:29:57,399 --> 00:29:59,720 they are now now actually participating 650 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,880 in the uh reram study with the city with 651 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,120 crtc 652 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,600 so there was one did you say that there 653 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,279 would be no on street parking on will 654 00:30:09,279 --> 00:30:13,279 Street was there one street that there's certain blocks that are narrower 655 00:30:13,279 --> 00:30:15,840 so the first block of Willet I don't 656 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,640 believe we had 657 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:20,880 any so if you see here the first block 658 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,320 Clos us to the bank there was we looked 659 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,919 like we're trying to eliminate and make 660 00:30:24,919 --> 00:30:26,840 the sidewalks a little wider to include 661 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,840 those trees and then as you get back 662 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,600 more into the neighborhoods we would the tough thing about Main Avenue is 663 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,519 honestly that no one I don't believe no 664 00:30:35,519 --> 00:30:37,399 one really lives on Main Avenue everyone 665 00:30:37,399 --> 00:30:39,519 lives off the Main Avenue and parks on 666 00:30:39,519 --> 00:30:41,240 Main Avenue the houses are actually 667 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,159 facing all the perpendicular streets for 668 00:30:43,159 --> 00:30:46,200 the most part um so it's kind of an 669 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:47,600 interesting street but people still are 670 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,000 utilizing it for parking taking off stre 671 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,519 parking away it is a is is an issue cuz 672 00:30:53,519 --> 00:30:54,960 that's what we were looking to do if we 673 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,480 were going to put a bike lane we're 674 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:57,720 going to put some kind of infrastructure 675 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,480 something has to go which is either 676 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,480 going to be a bike lane I mean the 677 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,360 parking lane or a driving lane so are 678 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,760 you talking about all Main Avenue 679 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,039 because if you start main like a Forest 680 00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:08,600 Road there are definitely houses where 681 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:15,840 people live there this houses on the ho houses on the whole lake there are 682 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,799 houses there okay the density is not 683 00:31:17,799 --> 00:31:19,799 anywhere greatest but but there're 684 00:31:19,799 --> 00:31:21,679 definitely so that's what we're going to 685 00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:24,200 leave we're going to proposing the leave 686 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,440 parking oh okay but just this one block 687 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,320 like what you can't see on this one 688 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,000 particular block is that there is like a 689 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,399 very large parking lot for trusco right 690 00:31:34,399 --> 00:31:36,440 there and you know we were talking about 691 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,919 how we can you know manage that um but 692 00:31:38,919 --> 00:31:40,440 that block then when you do the next one 693 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,240 is you're into on street parking so I 694 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:44,760 know with Trustco they had issues with 695 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,000 people parking in their lot so that 696 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:47,360 would definitely be a conversation we 697 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,269 have if we eliminate the 698 00:31:51,279 --> 00:31:53,159 parking anyone 699 00:31:53,159 --> 00:31:55,760 else so at this point in time um you're 700 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:57,559 asking for us us to to actually adopt 701 00:31:57,559 --> 00:32:00,200 the correct that's the the final step in 702 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,960 the study is for us to actually close it 703 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,320 with the crtc is to have the city 704 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,720 council adopt the study and that way it 705 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,880 would be essentially approved that the 706 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,399 information here is accurate as approved 707 00:32:12,399 --> 00:32:14,880 okay so we would um actually take this 708 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,360 up in City development planning unless 709 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:18,600 someone has any some input or questions 710 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:19,519 or 711 00:32:19,519 -->

00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,319 implementation uh the modifications our 843 00:38:50,319 --> 00:38:51,359 waste 844 00:38:51,359 --> 00:38:54,920 collection you said we have one or no I 845 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,520 said as we have one it's still open and 846 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,190 Dynamic 847 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,480 process any discussions we're holding 848 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,640 this for two more weeks is that correct 849 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,960 all yeah I'm not I'm not ready to move 850 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,319 forward on the specific proposal it's 851 00:39:13,319 --> 00:39:16,119 still ongoing disc discussion correct 852 00:39:16,119 --> 00:39:18,920 okay so are we at some point at some 853 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,440 point we're going to I mean we can 854 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,680 gather information like anecdotally from 855 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,200 people but are we at some point going to 856 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,599 pull together um some public forum 857 00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:28,680 whether it be the neighborhood 858 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,079 associations or or specifically for this 859 00:39:32,079 --> 00:39:35,240 so that we can kind of get um some input 860 00:39:35,240 --> 00:39:38,480 from the community and um 861 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,079 additionally we are with the in terms of 862 00:39:42,079 --> 00:39:45,400 public notice I know that we are essent 863 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,839 already we we're starting to um find 864 00:39:47,839 --> 00:39:49,599 people what's already in the code that 865 00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:51,119 we if we put your garbage out to early 866 00:39:51,119 --> 00:39:53,800 we're already doing that uh I think we 867 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,240 really public um having some public 868 00:39:56,240 --> 00:39:58,119 service announcements are 869 00:39:58,119 --> 00:39:59,800 ke to making sure that this is 870 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,680 successful so I think we need to like 871 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,760 have that again some still to narrow it 872 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,520 down and use the example of the size of 873 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,200 the container so we've talked about 874 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,920 different size uh garbage cans whether 875 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,599 you do uh certain size plastic bags 876 00:40:17,599 --> 00:40:21,760 clear bags uh opaque bags uh some of 877 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,480 that we have to come together I think 878 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,760 conceptually and say we're going to talk 879 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,160 about a 32 gallon garbage can and when 880 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:32,599 we go out people are going to say yes oh 881 00:40:32,599 --> 00:40:34,400 that's great or 882 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,440 no we want a bigger one we want a 883 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,880 smaller one and it's to have that uh 884 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,440 outline in place Mr O'Brien has uh gone 885 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,800 through and outline some potential 886 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,319 modifications to the code that was 887 00:40:50,319 --> 00:40:51,920 circulated a 888 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:56,839 ccil uh the last cycle cycle before and 889 00:40:56,839 --> 00:40:58,599 uh 890 00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:01,440 can uh look forward to working in a 891 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,640 collective manner as we bring it all 892 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,680 together but as you point out the public 893 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:12,800 education is key to it it is and I I 894 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:13,960 just want to make sure we don't lose s 895 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:15,440 of the whole jackpot thing which is 896 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,800 really what got us here yes and that we 897 00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,680 make sure that we are addressing that in 898 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:22,839 some way as opposed to you know like 899 00:41:22,839 --> 00:41:24,160 spreading it all out because I don't 900 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,040 think that'll do away with the jackpots 901 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:30,079 or what major piles of trash so in case 902 00:41:30,079 --> 00:41:32,200 you don't understand that that term is 903 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,040 for the major piles of trash they're out 904 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:37,599 on a contined 905 00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:41,280 basis thank you Mr any go ahead please 906 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:42,960 so I definitely had time to go through 907 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:44,800 more in depth and I appreciate the 908 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:46,800 volunteering this information I think my 909 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,880 biggest Focus areas where what's the 910 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,319 additional uh work hours look like for 911 00:41:51,319 --> 00:41:53,599 code enforcement who are ready appears 912 00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:55,319 as they're replacing some lost 913 00:41:55,319 --> 00:41:57,400 experience I imagine they're best 914 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,800 intentions in mind but definitely this 915 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,040 added element I imagine is going to to 916 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:04,400 have burden on on their role and 917 00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:06,440 responsibilities um I think to your 918 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,800 point of identifying what that ideal 919 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,280 trash can looks like I think it's uh 920 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,040 seeing if the city is in a position to 921 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:14,839 help subsidize or if there's any 922 00:42:14,839 --> 00:42:16,599 opportunity to help some of our renters 923 00:42:16,599 --> 00:42:18,839 where I can say myself as a homeowner I 924 00:42:18,839 --> 00:42:20,920 invested in trash cans because I think I 925 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:22,440 understood the importance was making 926 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,400 sure I had uh reliable receptacles but 927 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,599 I've heard of trash canes being taken uh 928 00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:29,440 so I I think it's understanding that 929 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,720 reality for some of our city members um 930 00:42:32,720 --> 00:42:35,000 and then also I I want to just point out 931 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,880 I thought that excess solidly stickers 932 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,079 was a really nice way to offer residents 933 00:42:40,079 --> 00:42:42,400 an opportunity to just have that ability 934 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,119 to put out that excess um in advance but 935 00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:46,720 making it more available outside of the 936 00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:48,359 city FKS office so I don't know if we're 937 00:42:48,359 --> 00:42:51,800 able to tag in with local libraries or 938 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,280 if we're able to have a partnership with 939 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,520 some of our local groceries just where 940 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,599 people frequently go I think some to Mr 941 00:42:57,599 --> 00:43:00,160 W's point of being in the community but 942 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,200 also being engaging I think it's going 943 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,960 to be important simar to that public um 944 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:07,480 volunteering of information making sure 945 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:08,839 that we don't just rely on the community 946 00:43:08,839 --> 00:43:10,160 come to us but we truly have to make 947 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,520 sure we're going to 948 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,400 them I agree with you completely on that 949 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,040 for the ease of 950 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,160 access makes the 951 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,079 implementation uh that much smoother so 952 00:43:23,079 --> 00:43:26,079 it's doing the education and you can't 953 00:43:26,079 --> 00:43:28,319 say we're going to have a sticker system 954 00:43:28,319 --> 00:43:29,720 everybody agrees to it and then the 955 00:43:29,720 --> 00:43:31,520 stickers aren't 956 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,920 available you know so 957 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:38,520 it's and again the general uh consensus 958 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,400 when we had meetings is that we would do 959 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,079 a period of soft or transitional 960 00:43:45,079 --> 00:43:49,280 implementation so that uh if we went to 961 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,520 a a 962 00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:55,839 rigid number for the size of the 963 00:43:55,839 --> 00:43:59,640 container the might be a year time frame 964 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,720 where we would you know we' recommend 965 00:44:01,720 --> 00:44:04,720 people have a certain size but allow 966 00:44:04,720 --> 00:44:08,680 them the opportunity to uh kind of 967 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:10,040 depreciate their 968 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,109 existing 969 00:44:13,119 --> 00:44:18,319 uh uh trash can and purchase a new 970 00:44:18,319 --> 00:44:22,480 one thank you any y go ahead um I just 971 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,040 want to say that you know with the new 972 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:25,920 trash and and and when we roll it out 973 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,440 softly and it goes on yesterday I was at 974 00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:30,559 a big chain store and I was buying 975 00:44:30,559 --> 00:44:32,359 things and I remember when we weren't 976 00:44:32,359 --> 00:44:34,040 going to get bags any longer and I said 977 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,400 to myself how are we going to deal with 978 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:37,720 this but in the Walmart everybody's got 979 00:44:37,720 --> 00:44:39,599 their own bags and they're taking them 980 00:44:39,599 --> 00:44:41,520 out and they're whatever so I guess it 981 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,800 just comes with time and and we'll be 982 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,599 able to to work through it like we did 983 00:44:46,599 --> 00:44:49,430 with 984 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,119 bags any other comments okay so we have 985 00:44:53,119 --> 00:44:58,119 the back the next item is Step 4.2 o c 986 00:44:58,119 --> 00:45:00,079 for transmission line 987 00:45:00,079 --> 00:45:03,000 Mayar this is National Grid is asking 988 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,200 for a easement their upgrading from 989 00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:09,160 their high voltage lines they have a 990 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,960 major transmission line that is 991 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,319 immediately adjacent to uh one of the 992 00:45:15,319 --> 00:45:17,800 parcels property that we own in the town 993 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,400 of reram so they're looking for an 994 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,160 easement to come onto our property a 995 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:28,000 little bit this is the site that we have 996 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:29,559 entered into 997 00:45:29,559 --> 00:45:32,720 a uh potential 998 00:45:32,720 --> 00:45:38,280 sale for a solar site uh it's been held 999 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,599 up because reran put a moratorium in 1000 00:45:41,599 --> 00:45:45,839 place uh they had originally offered one 1001 00:45:45,839 --> 00:45:48,800 number and gone back to them and they've 1002 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,680 upped that by about 1003 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,119 20% uh so I think we're at the best 1004 00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:57,160 number and I
