Other Comments
• I like how we are focusing on Downtown Hayward. What we are faced with today is the following: Getting downtown Hayward active and simultaneously getting a handle on street vending.
• Outside of recruitment, I’d like for PD to have a specific focus area around mitigating theft.
• Agree with deprioritizing streamlining cannabis, however still want to revisit Cannabis tax rates as part of EP6 (revisiting outdated ordinances that could be stifling economic development)
• Increasing Volunteerism - Would like for us to promote active non-profits on a city webpage and uplift with volunteer opportunities in our external communications
Other Comments
• Agree with modifying CP5 to include building out more bike parking infrastructure. Less concerned with EV charging for e-bikes at this point. • Ok with removing dog bag initiative as full staff project, but would like to ask KHCGTG to develop a pilot through their adopt a block program for us to discuss at a future date
• BART parking lots - Ok with deprioritizing, but want staff to remain responsive to BART as it relates to their TOD developments
• Ok with tabling People’s Budget discussion for next year’s roadmap conversation
• I know there is a lot of staff commitment coming up, so happy to be told you can only get to even one new project, if at all
