27 Segment 1 (Lots 1 & 2) Lot 1: Long-term phase Lot 2: Mid-term phase NMTPP Path Plan (Alta/Parisi)

28 Changes since Path Plan Right of Way acquisition considered too costly Additional study of bicycle and pedestrian usage following completion of Anchor and Bay segments by Staff, Sandis and Parisi Development of post-NMTPP funding options – TFCA and Ferry Terminal Improvements grants

29 CONCLUSION To better serve pedestrians, bicyclists and motor vehicle operators, Staff and consultants recommend that the City widen the sidewalks on Humboldt between Anchor and Bay Council approval to widen the sidewalks is necessary before any other approvals can be sought If the project includes a “bicycle facility,” the $83,000 TFCA grant is available

30 With Council approval: Staff will seek design review and other approvals necessary With other necessary approvals in hand, Staff will return to Council with any funding approvals necessary for construction or to seek authorization to invite bids for construction if additional bids are necessary Schedule is dependent upon approvals, but given funding construction would be completed winter 13/14 at the earliest
