Reasons
Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board/Commission/Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory board:
I am an avid bicyclist and runner residing in Santa Clara and father of two. I would like to help make Santa Clara a more bike and pedestrian friendly city because I believe it makes our community healthier, greener, and, most importantly, more united. There is so much more positive interaction between people when we are out of our cars. After reading through the Bicycle Plan Update 2018, I am interested in working on the connectivity to Santa Clara schools and the potential downtown revitalization, as well as finding ways to encourage a greater percentag_e of bicycling_, both for work commuting and community events.
Additional Information
Any other information which you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application:
I worked for 9 years at Menlo School in Atherton as their Director of Sustainability, primarily working on their traffic mitigation program. My responsibilities included working with families to determine their best alternative to driving their cars to school, including bicycling and walking. My experience makes me feel very comfortable in a community facing role, whether writing communications or public speaking.

I am an avid cyclist, walker, and hiker. In particular I'm interested in assisting with cycling related objectives. Moving here from Texas a few years ago, I was very impressed by how many more bike lanes there are, the better signage, sweeping of streets, etc. I see many people using the bike lanes and generally more pedestrians, which is a great feature of the area. I'd like to do what I can to improve this where possible!

Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board/Commission/Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory board:
I want to help the committee make recommendations to the City Council that will improve cycling and pedestrian conditions so that more people will want to ride bicycles and walk to destinations in the city rather than drive a car. I want to help the committee find solutions to reduce the crash rates between motor vehicles and bicyclists and pedestrians. improve cycling and pedestrian conditions, I will advocate for:
1. More space on our streets devoted to cyclists and pedestrians,
2. Lower speed limits on our streets,
3. More facilities for parking and storing bicycles on public and private property,
4. Better access to private property from the city sidewalk to enhance pedestrian safety
5. Way-finding signs,
6. An enhanced city Internet web presence, and
7. Programs to serve cyclists and pedestrians, particularly youth, communities of concern and women.
To further enhance cyclists and pedestrians comfort and safety on City streets, I would like to see roundabouts installed in our residential neighborhoods; I am on the BPAC Roundabout Subcommittee and I submitted a design for installing roundabouts on Forbes Avenue in our City. Roundabouts would make trips to neighborhood destinations, such as grocery stores, banks, city parks, and schools, safer and more efficient (in time and effort).
To create more space on our streets for cyclists, I submitted to the BPAC for review a project to temporarily install bicycle lanes on the El Camino Real. I have also suggested locations for bicycle lanes on streets where motor vehicle lanes can be narrowed to provide room for bicycle lanes. I have been outspoken at BPAC meetings in regard to including bicycle and pedestrian related infrastructure as part of development plans.
To help cyclists and pedestrians find their way around the city, I helped the BPAC Subcommittee on Way-finding to select cycling and pedestrian routes, including preparing drawings for sign locations. That project, if installed, will direct cyclists and pedestrians to destinations within the City, particularly places of employment, public parks, schools, colleges, business districts, shopping areas, historic places, the San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail, and cross-city travel.
I was also a member of the BPAC Subcommittee on Web Presence to investigate more public connectivity to information about cycling and pedestrian infrastructure and programs in the City.
Because youths are a cycling and pedestrian population, the Safe Routes to School program, a program that educates youth about safely walking and cycling to school, should be continued. We need to review the efficacy of that program by periodically reviewing the crash statistics for those age groups, if available, from the police department.
To identify other programs to assist cyclists, the BPAC should recommend the City continue to apply to the Bicycle Friendly Program offered by the League of American Bicyclists (LAB). BPAC needs to continually assess our current facilities and programs, as well as explore needed improvements identified by the LAB. I would like to attain the next level in that LAB program, the Silver rating.
To assist the City staff in investigating and applying for all these projects and programs, the LAB suggests, and I will continue to advocate for, a full time Pedestrian and Bicycle Coordinator be hired by the City. The coordinator can be the sole staff member assisting and attending meetings of the BPAC and can update the bicycle and pedestrian plans, rather than the using valuable City Traffic Engineering staff time, thereby saving the city a good deal of money. The Pedestrian and Bicycle Coordinator can also evaluate our present cycling and pedestrian infrastructure and programs and investigate funding. The coordinator could investigate funding sources such as government grants, public/private partnerships, and taxing strategies in order to accomplish committee goals more quickly.
Under the existing administration of the BPAC, I recommend that the City Council require that the City's Traffic Engineering staff submit all major changes they propose making to City roadways to the BPAC for review. Those projects at a minimum should include proposed traffic signals and new street configurations due to proposed developments in addition to the street re-stripping they presently submit for review.
I recommend that the City Council require the City's Planning Department staff submit all major land use changes and large proposed developments to the BPAC for review in order for the committee to ascertain if there will be impacts to the pedestrian and cycling environment. Widths of sidewalks and street features, such as tree planting, benches, sidewalk treatments, and other street features contribute to the improvement of the environment for pedestrians an cyclists and should be reviewed by the BPAC.
Additional Information
Any other information which you feel would be useful to the City Council in reviewing your application:
I have lived in Santa Clara for about forty-five years and in the Santa Clara Valley for fifty-five years. I have many fond memories of cycling around the valley, including a ride to the top of Mount Hamilton and many rides to Santa Cruz over the Santa Cruz mountains while I was a member of a high school cycling club. In college, I used a bicycle to commute to and from the university campus.
I have an undergraduate college degree, an AB. degree in Environmental Design with a major in Architecture from U.C. Berkeley. I was a Public Works Inspector for the City of Santa Clara for twenty-six years, and I am familiar with roadway, bike path and sidewalk construction and maintenance. I inspected the construction of phase one and two of the City's San Tomas Aquino Creek Trail while employed at the City.
From 1994 to 2007, I organized, volunteered and served as secretary for a popular non-profit bicycle repair clinic club in East Palo Alto, the Major Taylor Cycling Club of East Palo Alto. I helped at several City of Santa Clara Bike to Work Day events. Those activities are described in more detail below.
City of Santa Clara Bike to Work Day event: I not only volunteered to help distribute promotional items at several Bike to Work Day events, but also provided minor bicycle repairs to the public during the event. That experience has led me to think about additional trail enhancements that the BPAC may want to consider, such as repair stations, repair station shelters, more drinking fountains, restrooms, benches, and more pedestrian bridges to connect businesses on the east side of the creek to the trail. As a past member of BPAC, I suggested that BPAC recommend the City Council send a letter to the Santa Clara Valley Water District to save the popular Intel pedestrian bridge; that was accomplished and the bridge is still there.
Major Taylor Cycling Club: I was the secretary of the Major Taylor Cycling Club of East Palo Alto, a non-profit 501(c) 3 organization, for thirteen years. The club, which closed in 2007, operated a twice-monthly bicycle repair clinic for the youth of that city at no charge to the participants; over four thousand (4,000) participants attended during that period.
Club members, all volunteers, assisted youths in the repair and maintenance of their bicycles and taught riding skills. Repairs were accomplished by reusing bicycle parts from salvaged bicycles that were headed for the dump or otherwise donated to the club. I helped develop and oversaw all programs. I constructed all the necessary infrastructure to support the programs, such as work tables, tethered tools, tool carts, and storage facilities. I also provided free lunches to the members and youth volunteers. One notable program was the "Earn a Bike" program where youths helped other youths repair their bicycles in order to earn a bicycle.
The club also attended and helped at bicycle rodeos and parades sponsored by the City of East Palo Alto. The club attended and provided logistical support for a bicycle reuse event sponsored by the County of San Mateo. Our club's achievements were recognized by the City of East Palo Alto and the County of San Mateo, in large part due to our providing services not available in the private sector (there was no bicycle shop in that city).

Please state reasons why you want to become a member of this Board/Commission/Committee, including what specific objectives you would be working toward as a member of this advisory board:
In 1995ish I moved to an apartment in Santa Clara near Newhall and Winchester Boulevard. In 2004, I bought a house in Santa Clara and for the past 27 years, I have called this my home. For many years I have walked and bicycled the infrastructure in the City and County of Santa Clara, as well as, recreationally cycled throughout the Bay Area. On more than one occasion I have had to navigate dangerous situations by foot, bicycle, and automobile.
From October 2016 until October 2020 I had a life-changing opportunity and moved to and lived in The Netherlands. My home city was Amsterdam. As an avid cyclist, this was a dream come true and a truly eye-opening experience. The Netherlands is not only the most diverse country in all of Europe but in the 1970's, Amsterdam led their monumental transition from an automobile-centric city to a pedestrian/cyclist-focused country. Today, Amsterdam and The Netherlands have a mind-blowing infrastructure that promotes the safe passage of millions of people by foot, bicycle, and car every day. In the Netherlands, every driver of a car is also a cyclist so the vulnerability of being on a bike or walking is understood on a more personal level than here in The United States. I commuted daily by bicycle during my time in Amsterdam and rode thousands of miles every year for fun outside of my daily work commute. It's this perspective I'd like to share, as well as, learn from the perspectives of other members of the Advisory Comrr1ission to help sh~pe ()~r roads and community for all. __ _ Additional Information
