Mayor Gus Keller and Councilor D. W. Hamel were absent. <br /> <br />I. PUBLIC HEARINGS <br /> <br />A. Eugene Master Bike Plan Update - Materials and Map distributed. <br /> <br />Recommended by Planning Commission January 8, 1979, with a 4:1 vote. <br />Assistant City Manager noted the recommendations had come from the <br />Bicycle Committee to the Planning Commission. Jim Hanks, Traffic <br />Engineer, outlined the proposed amendments to the bike plan: <br /> <br />1. Route 104-A-2 Channel Bike Path would follow the channel <br />in a 120-foot wide easement between Ohio Street and Beltline <br />Road; with expanding development in the area, the path will <br />meet recreational and commuting needs. <br /> <br />2. Route 181--Terry Street bike lanes: Path will be striped <br />on this street from West 11th to its northern terminus. <br /> <br />3. Route 285--Coburg Road bike lanes: New on-street bike lanes <br />between Cal Young and Adkins Street will be used, rather than <br />the existing "sidewalk bikeway." <br /> <br />4. Route 292--Willie Knickerbocker Bridge: Should be completed <br />soon by EWEB and is being included as part of the master plan. <br /> <br />5. Route 367--Westmoreland Park Path: Will connect 20th Avenue <br />with the north and south Westmoreland path from Fillmore to <br />Taylor. <br /> <br />6. Route 460--Fern Ridge Bike Path: Path will create a short-cut <br />to 16th Avenue from the Fern Ridge Bike Path, just south of the <br />Jefferson Pool. <br /> <br />Mr. Hanks noted items 5 and 6 had been additions made subsequent to <br />the initial material Council received. These additions came as a <br />result of the West 18th bicycle/traffic plan recently approved by <br />Council. <br /> <br />Public hearing was held with no testimony presented. <br /> <br />3/26/79--1 <br /> <br />/5'1 <br />
