There will be a public meeting on whether to spend $43 million on the Mercer Corridore. Here's the notice:
PUBLIC FORUM - MONDAY - OCTOBER 6TH -
SHOULD THE CITY SPEND $43 MILLION ON CITYWIDE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVMENTS or ON A TWO-WAY MERCER BOULEVARD?
This UP announces an October 6 forum on the Mercer Project, and my proposal to redirect $43 million.
Time: 6:00-8:30
Doors open at 6pm with refreshments, presentation begins at 6:30pm
Location: Bertha Knight Landes Room, City Hall, 4th Ave and James
Date: Monday, October 6
Just to give you something to think about, Nick Licata is championing the use of the money for other transportation purposes: funding the recommendations of the Bicycle Master Plan, Pedestrian Master Plan, and providing a long-term capital program for meeting our freight mobility needs.
The big issue here is whether to fund enhanced automobile transportation or alternative transportation needs.
