MovingAhead Spring 2019 Outreach Summary 52 <br /> Greater impact on operating costs, less improvement in transit time and safety for bikers and <br />walkers, Advantage of EmX not clear. <br /> Even though this package invests in only 2 of the 5 corridors considered, I appreciate the fact <br />that it focuses more on those parts of our community that would rely on transit. I also like the <br />fact that this option has the lowest impact on property, trees and parking. <br /> EmX only on River Road.and enhanced corridor for 99. Lower impacts on property, trees & trees. <br />Still serves the population well. <br /> Builds EmX on area with higher potential for ridership increase. Other areas could be served at a <br />later date <br /> Better improvements in needed areas. <br /> At least it serves 98% of disadvantaged population. I like EmX on River Road. It impacts only 146 <br />trees, rather than the 432 in EmX Package. It is consistent with River Road plans. I am surprised <br />that there would be only a 13% increase in ridership. <br />Package B <br />Concerns <br />Cost <br />Too much <br /> too expensive. I can't pay for this and all the school improvements, and all the other bonds. I <br />would vote against it. <br /> Too expensive <br /> No one would spend their own money this way. $10 for a round trip, plus capital costs!?! <br /> High cost, low benefit. <br /> High Cost Modest improvements. No cross trafffic (the wheel of the wheel and spoke) plan. <br /> Door to door uber rides could provide better services to riders, for less than three three million <br />annual operational costs, but would require recreational walkers to seek out other existing <br />pathways. <br />Too little <br /> Rather spend a bit more and get package C <br /> Not enough. <br /> Doesn't go far enough. All 5 corridors need improvements. <br />Opposition on principle <br /> What community do you get input from? Only those who want to force bad public <br />transportation options on others, not those who end up footing the bill. <br /> These are all terrible ideas. <br /> Stop Bui!ding! <br /> Not good or welcome in river road Santa Clara <br /> Much larger investment with no monies in budget to pay means much larger increase in taxes <br />which hurts the very people it is meant to help. I question the ridership increase as we have not <br />seen an increase along the corridors that have been finished. More stop signs and pedestrian <br />crossings only means more green house gas emissions. Buses will not help the disadvantaged <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
