Subject:Input for City Planning
Dear SLO City Council,
As a city resident, I participated in the online poll regarding city priorities for the next budget cycle over a
month ago. I also want to bring three items to your attention now to be included in those conversations or
others within the city divisions.
1.) Multi-modal Transportation: Addressing bike safety on South Higuera St. from LOVR to downtown. It is
my understanding that the bike plan doesn’t include options for bike lanes on South Higuera in this
area of town. With new housing developments planned around this area and a new public market
being developed at the corner of Tank Farm and S. Higuera, it will be even more important to ensure
safety for this form of transportation along South Higuera. I urge the city to consider separated bike
lanes along South Higuera between LOVR and Madonna Rd or another solution that makes it safe for
families to bike in the area.
2.) Multi-modal Transportation: Creating the Bob Jones Trail connection south of LOVR. It is my
understanding that the city is responsible for developing this portion of the Bob Jones Trail. I hope that
you will include funds for this project in your next budget.
3.) Other: Ensure consideration of the need for quality, affordable child care facilities for working families
within the General Plan. Ensure that there are incentives to include these types of facilities within
development plans in the future.
Thank you for your hard work on behalf of our community.
Kind Regards,
Adrienne Harris
