Commissioner Bowman pointed out that your priorities depend <br />on what part of the county you live in. She has had calls about <br />a bikeway on Roseland Road. <br />Director Davis reported that we will be implementing an 8' <br />4 <br />wide bike path down CR 51.2lalong with the 512 project and the <br />funding is in place for that. <br />Commissioner Bird believed that the development and adoption <br />of a master plan is a major step. He noted that we have a joint <br />city/ county committee that has been working on this plan. This <br />plan sets up the major corridors, but there is a lot of in -fill <br />that will have to be done as bike paths are needed to connect to <br />some of these arterials, and he wished to know if that committee <br />is going to be a continuing committee which can set priorities <br />and recommend them back to the Board so that as funds are <br />available, the in -fill can be completed. <br />Director Keating felt that is pretty much up to the <br />committee itself, but he would recommend it stay formed and look <br />at the plan on an annual basis, especially since he seems to be <br />hearing that the Board's priorities may be leaning more towards <br />bikeways than sidewalks. <br />Commissioner Bowman wished to know what kind of money we are <br />talking about in the 5 year implementation plan. <br />Director Davis explained that the funding for the plan is <br />dovetailed with the capital road plan, and actually, that is the <br />only funding we have at this time. There have been some work- <br />shops between Planning and Public Works and developers, who have <br />been trying to wrestle with the R/W problem and how we purchase <br />R/W where traffic impact fee credits are not attributable. The <br />latest concept has been perhaps setting up some districts that <br />coincide with the traffic impact fee districts and levying a <br />special assessment in each of the 9 districts to purchase R/W. <br />Maybe we could dovetail our advance R/W acquisition program with <br />the bikeway program. He personally would recommend that and felt <br />it would be more palatable to the voters. <br />NOV 151988 <br />29 <br />BOOK cb FACE 173 3 <br />
