A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN LUIS
OBISPO, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING THE ANHOLM BIKEWAY PLAN
WHEREAS, the Bicycle Transportation Plan and the Land Use and Circulation Elements
to the General Plan support reducing use of single -occupant motor vehicles by supporting
alternatives, such as walking and bicycling; and
WHEREAS, the Circulation Element to the General Plan has modal split objectives of 20
percent for bicycles and 18 percent for walking, carpools, and other forms of transportation; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Anholm Bikeway Plan calls for implementation of bicycle
facilities that have been shown in other communities to provide substantial benefits to bicycle
safety and increase bicycle mode share; and
WHEREAS, the City has identified Multi -Modal Transportation as a Major City Goal,
with the purpose of prioritizing implementation of the Bicycle Transportation Plan, pedestrian
safety, and the Short -Range Transit Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Bicycle Transportation Plan recommends development of a low -impact
route for bicyclists and pedestrians connecting the downtown core to Foothill Boulevard as a "first
priority" project; and
WHEREAS, the City has adopted a Vision Zero policy to eliminate all fatal traffic deaths
and severe injuries by 2030, with a focus on improving pedestrian and bicyclist safety; and
WHEREAS, the City coordinated with neighbors and other community members on
outreach and public input through community meetings and other methods; and
WHEREAS, on January 18, 2018 the Bicycle Advisory Committee reviewed the Anholm
Bikeway Plan at a public hearing and provided recommendations to the City Council.
WHEREAS, on February 6, 2018 the City Council, after substantial public input and
debate reviewed the draft Anholm Bikeway Plan and conceptually approved the plan with phase
1 as presented, a modified phase 2 with traffic calming signage and crosswalks along Broad &
Chorro, in lieu of a cycle track and parking removal, with performance monitoring reports at 12
and 24 months, and a modified phase 3 with reconsideration of protected lanes, traditional bike
boulevard on Broad Street, and other traffic calming measures at that time; and
WHEREAS, on February 20, 2018, the Council further considered the previously directed
amendments to the proposed Anholm Bikeway Plan, pursuant to a duly noticed Council agenda
item, which apprises the public that the Anholm Bikeway Plan was on the agenda and scheduled
for discussion and action by the City Council.
Resolution No. 10881 (2018 Series) Page 2
WHEREAS, during the February 20, 2018 City Council meeting, the Council solicited
and received public comment on the duly noticed agenda item and, following public comment,
engaged in a public process of deliberating, arriving at concurrence on additional amendments
discussed at the meeting, and acting to adopt a resolution approving a modified Anholm Bikeway
Plan reflecting amendments discussed and agreed upon during the duly noticed public meeting;
and
WHEREAS, The Council acted within its discretion and in compliance with applicable
law to make further modifications to the staff recommendation and proposed resolution adopting
the bikeway plan prior to final adoption of the plan; and
WHEREAS, the City is committed to public engagement and actions that encourage more
residents to be informed and involved in shaping important community decisions and, therefore,
the City Council has placed the Anholm Bikeway Plan on the Council agenda for further discussion
and action;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo
that
SECTION 1. Findings. This Council, after consideration of the Anholm Bikeway Plan as
recommended by the Bicycle Advisory Committee, and subsequent modifications directed after
further Council deliberation and consideration of staff recommendations and public testimony,
makes the following findings:
1. The Anholm Bikeway Plan is consistent with the City's General Plan and Bicycle
Transportation Plan.
2. The Anholm Bikeway Plan will develop low -stress, protected bicycle facilities, which have
been a well-documented strategy to make bicycling safer, more accessible, and attractive as a
transportation option for users of all ages and ability levels.
3. The Anholm Bikeway Plan will further the City goals to increase bicycle and walking mode
share.
4. The Anholm Bikeway Plan will provide improved infrastructure for walking and bicycling,
improving the viability of active transportation modes connecting the downtown with the
Anholm Neighborhood in addition to schools and neighborhood north of Foothill Boulevard.
SECTION 2. Environmental Review. Per Section 15304 of the State California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the project is categorically exempt from CEQA
under Class 1, Existing Facilities; Section 15301 and Class 4, Minor Alterations to Land, because
the project would be constructed on existing city streets within the public right of way. The project
will be constructed in an area that has no value as habitat for biological resources and would not
be located in agricultural areas. The proposed street lights would be located in an urban area and
would not significantly increase light or glare beyond existing conditions. The project has no
potentially significant traffic impacts. The project is consistent with General Plan policies that
promote an integrated system of bikeways, walkways, and traffic calming measures that promote
a safe, multimodal transportation network.
