Actions of the City Council <br />No discussion was held or action taken. <br />c. Actions of the Zoning Administrator <br />No discussion was held or action taken. <br />d. Matters for Commission's Information <br />Bicycle Pedestrian and Trails Committee <br />Commissioner Olson stated that the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Trails Committee had a <br />meeting on Monday, and the primary discussion involved a possible second bridge over <br />the Arroyo de la Laguna or some other solution. He indicated that the Committee <br />actually passed a motion to ask the City to consider some form of bridging that would <br />not handle automobiles but would handle bicycles and pedestrians. <br />Chair Blank inquired what something like that would cost. <br />Commissioner Olson replied that the Committee does not know, but the alternative is to <br />wait for a second bridge and that staff said it is a good ten years away. <br />Chair Blank noted that if staff said that, then it is correct. <br />Commissioner O'Connor stated that Castlewood Country Club got a price to do a foot <br />bridge from the second or third hole going over that same body of water. He indicated <br />that he thinks it was done within the last two years, and getting some type of estimate <br />from the Club might be a start. <br />Mr. Dolan stated that ten years is what staff says when it has no idea. He added that in <br />the short term, it would be a huge challenge as staff is really kind of pulling back on <br />some projects and is not in a position of adding things to the Capital Improvement <br />Program (CIP) given the budget coming forward. <br />Commissioner Olson stated that there is a sidewalk on the south side of that bridge, and <br />the only way to really go across it on a bicycle is to get out there in the lane and go. He <br />indicated that one of the suggestions made was to put up some signage that would say <br />"Please give right -of -way to bicycles as you cross the bridge" or something on that <br />order. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, April 24, 2013 Page 10 of 11 <br />
