As a local resident who cares about the health and safety of our streets, I strongly support the realization of the Arroyo Link and urge the City to request at least $9.5 million from the $230+ million in available Measure R funding to design and build the project before the 2028 Summer Olympic Games come to Pasadena.
The Arroyo Link will provide permanent access to the Arroyo and the Rose Bowl, crown jewels in the Pasadena park system that are not easily accessible to people walking or biking.
The Arroyo Link will build upon the Union Street Protected Bikeway by creating a safe, off-street route to west Pasadena.
The Arroyo Link will contribute to the City's goal of Pasadena being a place where people can safely circulate without a car, as well as support the implementation of the City's adopted Climate Action Plan.
This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to realize meaningful mobility improvements for the City of Pasadena. Please request at least $9.5 million from Metro to design and build this wonderful community project.
Thank you for your consideration and service to the community, Barbara Ishida

Re: Council Meeting 6/13/2022; Agenda Item 10; Fire Station 38 Upgrade Contract Mayor Gordo and Councilmembers,
The Linda Vista-Annandale Association (LVAA) is pleased to support this Agenda item to award the contract to upgrade Fire Station 38, the Linda Vista Fire Station, in order to bring the Station up to applicable Codes and laws for safety and related purposes including seismic safety standards and also to renovate the interior personnel areas.
As indicated in the Staff Report and explained to us by Chief Augustin, this project will not change the basic design or character of the current Fire Station structure as most of the construction is interior work, or impact the on-site Heritage Oak Tree adjacent to the station, although we expect and request that the Heritage Oak will be protected pursuant to City rules for any potential construction impacts or damage. Also, we understand that Fire personnel will be housed temporarily in trailers at the back of the property. Under these circumstances, LVAA is pleased to support the project and requests that the Council approve entering into the contract for the project.
Sincerely,
Nina Chomsky, LVAA President
