172 be extending the Pathway Master Plan to include some additional details for a bike <br />173 network plan. Should the City put together a whole separate plan. <br />174 <br />175 Chair Ficek explained if the City went down the road to a separate bike plan, what <br />176 would Mr. Culver see as the goal and how would that be different from the Master <br />177 Plan. <br />178 <br />179 Mr. Culver indicated he was looking for some input from the Commission, if there <br />180 is any input. He noted the City does not necessarily have a budget right now for a <br />181 separate bike plan but some things could be shuffled around to hire a consultant to <br />182 help with that. He thought the City needed to work towards a network where they <br />183 are promoting the use of certain roadways for bike travel. <br />184 <br />185 Member Hodder explained from his perspective when he was Finance Chair, one <br />186 of the things that helped ground him, when he would make decisions was how <br />187 would it be connected to the community vision for the process that the citizens laid <br />188 out. How is this driven toward that end. <br />189 <br />190 Mr. Culver explained whether this is a supplement to the existing FWay Master <br />191 Plan or a whole new plan, it is directly connected to the y's overall <br />192 Transportation Plan, which is a chapter within the City's Comprehensive Plan, <br />193 which is a very community driven document. <br />194 <br />195 Member Misra explained to Commissioner Hodder's point, that is the kind of <br />196 thinking that the City, County and even the State seem to be moving forward with <br />197 its plans, a kind of aspirational vision towards the community. <br />198 <br />199 Chair Ficek explained his opinion is what he is hearing from the County and State <br />200 is that it would be a benefit if the City had this and it would help with their <br />201 investments and something to point to and say the City is dedicated towards it. He <br />202 also thought, given the little knowledge he has of the Comprehensive Plan, it would <br />203 be easier to change a bike plan if it were a separate item rather than having to go <br />204 back and do an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. He could definitely see <br />205 some benefit towards having a separate plan. He thought it would be a good thing <br />206 to have. <br />207 <br />208 Mr. Culver thanked the presenters for addressing the Commission. <br />209 <br />210 Chair Ficek also thanked the presenters for their presentations. <br />211 <br />212 7.
