Other relevant experience or expertise:
Working with city staff and community representatives on Napa's BPAC has been a phenomenal experience. The Commission has provided input on new city streets, crossings, signals and bike lanes. We're working to move the city's biking status from bronze to silver by implementing safety improvements around the city including separated bike lanes as the city improves road conditions. We have worked to implement safer crossings for pedestrians and added HAWK (High-Intensity Activated cross Walk) signals near schools. I chair the Maintenance Committee for the Napa Valley Vine Trail working with engineering staff for county and valley communities; I am an avid cyclist and concerned about cycling safety on city streets and improving bike lanes. I have cycled all around the SF Bay Area and been on cycling trips throughout Europe.. I have hosted cycling events in Napa for cycling guests. I was a former Deputy Director of Public Works in Modesto and I have often presented projects to the EPA, state officials, city councils, planning commissions, and public works departments.
Additional Questions
What is your understanding of the role and responsibility of this board? Provide understanding of city's cycling and pedestrian programs and to provide advice and guidance to the City Council and the Public Works Department. Seek advice from the community of cyclists and pedestrians on maintenance of city streets and roads. Provide direction for future street improvement projects.
Have you ever attended a meeting of this board? If so, how many? Yes, 23
What duties of this board are most interesting to you?
I'm on the city's streets cycling several days each week. I understand the recreational needs for both local residents and city visitors. We have a great opportunity to improve the safety of cyclists and pedestrians on city streets through engineering, grade markings, signage and education. We work closely with the Napa Valley Transportation Authority and the Bicycle Coalition to provide suggestions for staff on planning and street improvements.

What activities of this board are least interesting to you? BPAC has great people all willing to assist. We have held neighborhood meetings to notify the residents of improvements and to obtain community input. I am enthusiastic about providing support to city staff and city council. I see that serving on the board will be an honor.
What programs or projects would you like to see improved or implemented? I would like to improve bike lane use with updated maps and signage. Signage in the City of Napa should also direct people to the Napa Valley Vine Trail. I will continue to advocate for more helmets for children cycling to schools and parks. I want to encourage business to become bike friendly for customers and staff with bike racks or lockers, education and newsletters.
How would you approach improving these project(s) or program(s)? I'm an engineer so I am accustomed to reviewing data. We will look at street and bike use, accident statistics and make recommendations for improvement. We will engage outside consultants and university studies to make recommendations for improvement. We will attempt to emulate safe streets programs from other cities. I will listen to other board members and seek consensus in moving forward. I will assist city staff to seek grants for bike and traffic improvements.
Are you involved in any organizations or activities that may result in a conflict of interest if you are appointed to this board? None
