1/24/23 23 ‐0310 Budget Proposal: Allocate $60K to the Department of Public Works to contract with an outside engineering firm to co nduct investigations into the next 3 collisions in Sunnyvale involving a motor vehicle in which a cyclist or pedestrian is seriously injured or killed. There would be discretion to the City Manager as to which 3, if there is a particularly obvious case that he does not feel an inv estigation would be worthwhile. Each investigation would produce a report, identifying engineering factors contributing to the collision, would focus on engineer design, as well as potential mitigation options. Each report will be released publicly on the transportation and traffic safety section of the City’s website upon completion. Upon completion of th e pilot staff would present the results to the BPAC and City Council for review.
