I encourage you to not only treat this blog post as an additional opportunity to share your ideas with others but also email them directly to the city council at [email protected]

What are your recommendations and the reasons for them?
I will start the ball rolling by offering mine.
My Recommendations
1. Grade Separations – complete a study of fully elevated grade separations, select a final grade separation alternative and apply for county and state funding.
2. Transportation Master Plan – Complete this planning cycle.
3. Downtown Parking – Investigate and approve one or more alternative solutions.
4. El Camino Real/ Downtown Specific Plan – Measure actual progress on proposed civic improvements and establish a 5-year timetable for completing outstanding ones. Review and update building regulations.
5. Train Station Area Civic Plaza – Complete a design study of the public plaza proposed in the Specific Plan (coordinate with grade separation planning)
6. Comprehensive Bike Network Plan – Update existing (2004), set priorities and establish a 5-year implementation schedule
