>>> The net decrease in CO2 emissions in 2020 is increasing post-pandemic <br />FOCUS >>> <br /> ACTIONS: <br />● Evaluate the list of pedestrian and bike route gaps identified in the 2040 <br />Comprehensive Plan and identify routes that are currently noncompliant with ADA <br />standards. Ensure that plans are in place to improve key intersections and routes. <br />● Utilize resident feedback to identify areas throughout the City where pedestrian safety <br />could be improved. Explore ways to improve the safety in these areas. <br />● Evaluate the feasibility of restriping and redesigning streets that are common <br />commuter routes to include a bike lane. <br />● Install or partner with local service organization to install bicycle repair station along a <br />major biking corridor (e.g. diagonal trail) <br />● Create a self reporting mechanism for people to track the number of miles they spend <br />biking to work to school and for leisure. <br />● Discuss incentivizing residents to use alternative modes of transportation by zoning <br />for limited parking at facilities and event spaces that have sufficient pedestrian <br />infrastructure connecting to existing nearby parking. <br />● Develop a bike and pedestrian plan to develop specific goals and infrastructure <br />opportunities and participate in regional planning initiatives. <br />● Partner with schools and other local organizations to promote bike to school and bike <br />to work days to create awareness and opportunity to get people out of their cars. <br />INITIATIVE 1 <br />IMPROVE ACCESSIBILITY AND SAFETY OF NON- <br />MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE <br />DESCRIPTION: To reduce the emissions created by vehicle miles traveled, <br />the City can continue to address gaps in the pedestrian and bike networks and <br />improve areas not currently in compliance with ADA standards. The City can <br />also explore incentives for residents to use alternative modes of transportation <br />that includes safety as a co-benefit, as represented in the Comprehensive Plan. <br />TIMELINE: 2024 - 2027 <br />METRICS: Collect annual average daily traffic (AADT) and pedestrian counts throughout the improvement <br />process to measure the impact of the changes. <br />CLIMATE PLAN 2023 >> 37
