Presentation at the Alachua County Communitywide Transportation Summit on City of Gainesville Transportation Needs (B)
The draft City presentation for the Alachua County Communitywide Transportation Summit is available for City Commission discussion and guidance.
Explanation
The Alachua County Board of County Commissioners is holding a Communitywide Transportation Summit on April 10, 2013 at the Gainesville/Alachua County Senior Recreation Center. The County has indicated that the Summit is intended to be the beginning of positive communitywide dialogue on developing a transportation system that makes Alachua County a community where people like to live and work. The purpose of the Summit is to gather public input on: 1) the characteristics of a transportation system for a community in which they would like to live and work; and 2) the most important steps that the public believes need to happen now to begin building that transportation system in Alachua County.
Municipalities and community groups have been invited to provide public input at the Summit with presentations of about 5 minutes. Public Works staff has prepared a PowerPoint presentation and reserved speaking time.
Fiscal Note
There is no fiscal impact.
Recommendation
