The City is currently updating the General Plan. Mobility and circulation are important components of the document. During the public outreach phase of the process, staff is reaching out to important stakeholders to receive input on future policies. In order to determine future opportunities for non-vehicular circulation through the City, we are asking the Trails Advisory Committee to consider some important questions and have a discussion about possible policies. The Core Values for the PlanRc General Plan Update are Health, Equity, and Stewardship. The following questions will be discussed. Please consider the attached draft map for reference: 1. Trails—what's working and what's not? 2. What would you like to see in the future? 3. What are the constraints? 4. How do we ensure mobility equity throughout the city? 5. What are the best opportunities to integrate peds, bikes, horses, and link to other community resources such as parks and natural pathways and open spaces?
