Overview: On June 13, 2018 <https://chapelhill.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=3524637&GUID=0E05C1C4-9744-41C8-86BD-F3F165F8AAF4&Options=&Search=>, the Town Council adopted a Resolution Authorizing Next Steps Following the Adoption of the Final 2018-19 Budget and Related Items, one of which calls for following the model of the strategic plan prototype for affordable housing to address the priorities of traffic and transportation in a Connected Community. Following the Affordable Housing prototype, the Connected Community Prototype includes the strategic goal, work plan and metrics for the multi-modal areas of Bike and Pedestrian, Parking, Transit, and Streets and Traffic.
|
Recommendation(s): |
That the Council provide feedback about the Connected Community Strategic Goal Prototype.
Prototype Context:
• The Connected Community Strategic Goal Report includes a work plan, community indicators and performance measures. This is following the structure of the Affordable Housing Strategic Goal Report.
• The Connected Community Strategic Goal prototype reports actions and measurements about Bike and Pedestrian Infrastructure, Transit, Streets and Traffic, and Parking. Actions are taken from the Council adopted Mobility and Connectivity Plan and Council authorized projects.
• The 2018 Town of Chapel Hill Community Survey respondents recommended the following as the top priorities for investment over the next two years:
o Overall management of traffic flow
o Overall quality of public parking
• Participants in the Charting Our Future survey and outreach sessions identified the Town’s management of bike, pedestrian and transit connections, and vehicle traffic as top concerns.
Next Steps:
• Staff receives Council feedback and shares the Connected Community Strategic Goal prototype with the Transportation and Connectivity Advisory Board and staff Bike-Pedestrian team.
• Staff returns to Council in the spring with a revised draft reflecting feedback from these groups.
• Synthesize traffic data and reach out to stakeholders to further understand the Community Survey feedback.
