Dylan (Brown County consultant) told the Ashwaubenon Bicycle & Pedestrian Committee that 141 surveys were submitted for the village’s pedestrian‑bicycle plan update and summarized where residents reported walking and biking, barriers, and priorities. “A 141 surveys were submitted,” Dylan said, and he described the responses as weighted rankings rather than raw counts.
The consultant said respondents most often listed parks and trails, residential neighborhoods and schools as priority destinations, and that lack of sidewalks/paths and difficult street crossings were the top obstacles. He summarized the most requested improvements as “increasing separation between motor vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles,” completing network gaps and improving crossings.
The report included point‑and‑segment maps and open‑ended comments; Dylan said the interactive map had fewer submissions and that he will correct a mislabeled table in the packet. Committee member Sue Prager asked whether the commercial Oneida Street/mall area was a frequent concern; Dylan said comments there reflected both crossing difficulty and the internal layout of private development that discourages walking between stores.
Committee members discussed next steps. Tracy Flucke (committee member) and others agreed members should review the existing plan’s chapter 2 (background) and chapter 5 (goals, objectives, policies) and return with suggested changes. Dylan said staff will provide the two summary charts he created and that the committee’s next regular meeting is Aug. 11. He proposed the committee concentrate on top issues, opportunities and goals at that meeting; staff agreed to distribute the homework and the plan chapters in advance.
Ending: The committee did not take formal action on policy at the meeting; members directed staff to distribute the survey summary graphics and the relevant plan chapters and to place goals and issues on the August agenda for review.
