Option #2 works for me.

Hi All,
Thank you everyone for the extremely efficient PAC meeting last week.
We discussed the signal decision with Town departments that have not
had the luxury of 6 hours of presentations and discussion on the various
intersection improvements. There was some surprise in the decision
(why not roundabouts??). Prior to the meeting last week, staff
envisioned having a few intersection alternatives to present to Council in
January and for Public Workshop meetings. Since we don’t have a series
of alternatives and ‘choices’ to present to the public, we are looking at a
slightly different tactic for the Public Outreach, both to Council and the
public. I would like to get some input from Reimagine PAC for the Public
Outreach strategy.
1. We can schedule another PAC committee meeting in the
beginning of January on the Public Outreach plan and push the
Council meeting to the end of January/beginning of February OR
2. I can send emails and the presentation to the PAC for comments
and keep the January 8th Council meeting date.
Please let me know which direction you would prefer by December 21,
2018
The public outreach direction we are suggesting is:
1. Jan 8 th Council meeting to UPDATE Council on the alternatives
reviewed, the decision making process, and the decision the PAC
made. We do not suggest ‘recommending’ the signal alternative
at this time. Instead, we suggest ‘recommending’ a public
outreach strategy to gather feedback from the public. We need to
get the public caught up!
2. We aim to keep the presentation under ½ hour. The
presentation we develop will include some alternatives with visual
simulations of the traffic flow with and without trains to better
show where issues occur.
3. The outreach strategy we propose will include Town
staff/consultants taking the presentation to various groups in
Town—TDMA, Board meetings, Tuesday Breakfast Club, Rotary,
etc.
4. Articles/press releases on the process
5. Updating the webpage and social media
6. Also, if any PAC members would like to participate/assist in the
presentations to the public groups or attend the Council meeting,
that would also be helpful.
Please let me know how you prefer to provide feedback (meeting or
emails) and if you have any questions or comments on the direction we
are suggesting.
Thanks,
Jessica Thompson
