Re: 2025 Master Work Plan - Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission Dear Council,
At the November 21, 2024 Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Commission (BPAC) meeting, the commission approved the 2025 Master Work Plan with the following changes by a 7-0 vote:
• To prioritize the Class 3B presentation by staff
• Add parking lot item for broader community outreach and communication outlets • Add a second Safe Routes to School presentation to the parking lot items, making Safe Routes to School item into a bi-annual report
First, regarding the Class 3B presentation by staff, an asterisk has been added on the work plan to indicate that the item is a BPAC priority.
Second, the broader community outreach and communication outlet item will not be included in the “Additional items yet to be scheduled” section of the work plan at this time. During the BPAC meeting, Mayor Klein indicated that the topic will be discussed in greater depth during a future strategic workshop. Addressing this topic prematurely at the staff level could result in duplicative efforts and misalignment with City Council direction on the matter.
Lastly, the second Safe Routes to School presentation will not be included in the “Additional items yet to be scheduled” section of the work plan at this time. The presenter for this item, the Safe Routes to School Coordinator, is not budgeted to do more than one presentation a year.
Additionally, the current schedule to present the data once a year is intended to consolidate the results for productive discussion. Due to the nature of the presented data, increasing the frequency of the presentation does not significantly enhance the quality of discussion.

Therefore, I cannot support the addition of the broader community outreach and communication outlet item and the addition of a second Safe Routes to School item in the BPAC 2025 Master Work Plan included in the City Council Agenda for approval.
Sincerely,
Angela Obeso
Interim Transportation and Traffic Manager
