Commission forms ad hoc subcommittee to draft 2026 work plan, prioritizing safe routes to school
Summary
The commission agreed to form a three‑member ad hoc subcommittee to draft the 2026 work plan, aiming to present a draft to City Council in late Q1 and to prioritize safe‑routes‑to‑school projects, resurfacing alignment and focused, achievable items.
The Los Altos City Traffic and Transportation Commission formed an ad hoc subcommittee of up to three commissioners to develop the commission’s 2026 work plan, with a goal of having a draft ready for the joint City Council meeting in late winter/early spring. Commissioners said the subcommittee should focus the commission’s yearly priorities on achievable projects such as safe routes to school, coordination with resurfacing and targeted improvements rather than an overly broad agenda.
Commissioners discussed timeline and scope: staff indicated the work‑plan item is typically presented to City Council in February or March, so the subcommittee will meet in November–January to gather input and craft a recommend‑for‑council draft. Commissioners also suggested the subcommittee coordinate with community groups (for example, school PTAs and local volunteer groups that run ‘walk‑and‑roll’ events) and with adjacent jurisdictions where projects cross city borders.
Three commissioners volunteered to serve; staff will support the group and provide background materials including the current CIP list, resurfacing schedule and circulation planning notes. The commission asked staff to circulate the existing project lists and to schedule subcommittee meetings to produce an actionable draft.
