Traffic commission recommends Kevin as its representative to Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee
Summary
The commission moved and approved a recommendation that Kevin serve as the Traffic Commission’s member on the Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee and planned to forward the recommendation to the mayor for appointment.
At the start of the meeting the commission discussed the city council’s amendment requiring a traffic commission member to sit on the Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee. Kevin, an active participating resident, told commissioners he had been attending the bike/ped committee as a member of the public and was willing to serve as the commission’s representative.
Ben Gustafson, chair of the Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee, spoke in support of Kevin’s involvement. A motion was made to recommend Kevin to the mayor for inclusion on the Bicycle, Pedestrian and Trails Committee. The motion was seconded and the commission undertook a roll‑call vote; named affirmative votes in the transcript include Tom Abdella and Odin. The chair thanked Kevin for agreeing to serve and the commission indicated the clerk will forward the recommendation to the mayor for appointment.
The commission’s recommendation does not itself appoint Kevin; the mayor makes the formal appointment.
