McKinleyville transportation subcommittee reiterates support for County‑led Hiller Road improvements
Summary
At the May 13 meeting the subcommittee discussed continued advocacy at the May 12 Board of Supervisors meeting for Hiller Road improvements from the Town Center Ordinance and reviewed applying a 'Safe System Approach' to pedestrian safety and planning.
Members of the McKinleyville Municipal Advisory Committee Subcommittee for Active Transportation discussed ongoing advocacy for Hiller Road improvements identified in the Town Center Ordinance, citing recent Board of Supervisors consideration during a May 12 meeting. Committee members said they continue to support a County‑led, County‑funded approach to those improvements.
The group discussed applying a "Safe System Approach" to transportation planning and pedestrian safety; meeting notes record the approach as a point of discussion rather than a formal motion. The committee emphasized coordinating with Humboldt County Public Works and county supervisors as the project moves from planning to design and funding phases.
The subcommittee did not take formal action at the May 13 meeting but recorded continued advocacy and the intent to press for County ownership of design and funding. Members expect to continue the discussion at future meetings and to coordinate next steps with County staff and the Board of Supervisors if opportunities arise.
