Subject:Item 16: Active Transportation Plan
Dear Council,
I want to express my support of the Active Transportation Plan. I encourage you to adopt the plan without any major
modifications to the framework or project prioritization. This plan is a culmination of many meetings and hard work
from staff, ATC members and many of us in the community who participated from the very onset of the project. The
methodology and techniques are sound and based on current best practices. The adjustments that have been made
since the draft plan enhance the overall plan.
I encourage you to adopt the plan and allocated funding in this upcoming budget cycle to start tackling the Tier 1 project
list. Building out this Tier 1 network will be critical in creating a safe network for biking and walking which in turn will
encourage more people to use those modes of transportation, help reduce our dependence on fossil fuel, reduce our
carbon footprint, and create a more equitable and affordable city.
Thank you,
Garrett Otto
