Kerman hears presentations on local transportation measures; council asks for county perspective next meeting
Summary
Presentations covered the "Better Roads & Safe Streets" transportation measure and a Fresno State Transportation Institute briefing. Council requested a Fresno County perspective on two transportation measures at the next meeting and discussed whether to formally support the "Better Roads & Safe Streets" measure.
The Council received a presentation on the "Better Roads & Safe Streets" transportation measure from Steve Brandau, with comments from Victor Martinez, Mayor of Mendota. Separately, Dr. Aly Tawfik and students from the Fresno State Transportation Institute presented; the minutes note a public comment from Matthew Gillian following that presentation. The minutes do not record the substance of the presentations or the public comment.
During Mayor/Council reports, Mayor Pro Tem Yep requested a Fresno County perspective on the two transportation measures at the next Council meeting and asked that Council decide after that presentation whether to support the "Fix Our Roads" measure or remain neutral. Mayor Pacheco requested a resolution in support of the "Better Roads and Safe Streets" measure. Legal counsel recommended consolidating both requests into one staff report with draft resolutions for Council consideration.
