He stated two alterna- tives to aid in solving this problem. (1) Las Positas Overpass, and (2) bicycle paths on Foothill Road. He asked the Council how the citizens can help alleviate the problem and establish these necessary changes. The Council expressed concern about the situation and Councilman Herlihy suggested that a staff member review the history of the situation with Mr. Bowe. Mr. Edgar stated that there is no funding for the overpass at pre- sent and that there are complete plan line plans for the widening of Foothill Road which have been reviewed by the County and the City staff and will be reviewed by the Planning Commission shortly. Councilman Mori concurred that the history of this overpass is inter-related with the problems the City is facing. Mayor Pearson suggested that this request would best be made at budget time. Councilman Reid assured Mr. Bowe that the City is giving this matter the importance it deserves and suggested that he talk to the staff to satisfy himself of its level of priority. Nancy Eby, 27 Castlewood Road, addressed the City Council on this subject and requested priority for a bicycle path on Foothill Road. -6- 11/19/73
