MovingAhead Spring 2019 Outreach Summary 59 <br />work. I keep seeing that these proposals are geared for those who are disadvantaged. Can there <br />be that many disadvantaged in this town of 160k? Remember, during the summer months, a lot <br />of kids from the U of O go home. <br /> I do not want this amount of cost to go into this or for this amount of road constructions to <br />happen. <br /> High Cost <br /> Growing concern about the financial investment and operating expenses <br /> Although it works well with our current plans, I think the investment would be too high. <br />Too little <br /> We should move forward on a bigger vision for our future. <br /> Still not enough. <br /> Still does not seem that it would keep pace with our growth. I'm glad we are thinking about <br />enhancing the corridors. <br /> Still does not seem forward-looking enough. <br /> Better than A & B but short of what's needed to meet our transportation and climate goals. <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 /> Stop wasting taxpayer money. <br /> Not needed or welcome in Santa Clara river road <br /> Not necessary. <br /> No more! <br /> LTD is a dictatorship. We don't want you expanding in Santa Clara. Most of us are outside the <br />city and many outside the urban growth boundary. Stay out of our neighborhood. EMX only <br />transports more transients and criminals into our area. <br /> Horrible idea. The huge investment Larger annual operating budget with no monies in budget to <br />pay means larger increase in taxes which hurts the very people it is meant to help. I question the <br />ridership increase as we have not seen an increase along the corridors that have been finished. <br />More stop signs and pedestrian crossings only means more green house gas emissions. Buses <br />will not help the disadvantaged population when they will have more taxes taken from their <br />living wages and more green house gasses making it harder to breath and more sick days from <br />work. Also hurts the small businesses who are the major players in giving living wages and <br />providing jobs to the disadvantaged. Taking away property and longer travel times will impact <br />the business' along these routes. Customers don't want to travel along the routes that adds <br />travel time which in turn drives down productivity in those areas. None of this is a good idea. <br />Money should be spent in vocational training or affordable housing or job creation not buses. <br />Harms driving <br /> This doesn't address how individual drivers/commuters will be impacted, but the reduced <br />parking definitely concerns me, as well as more businesses being impacted. <br /> None of the operational plans identify impacts on vehicle traffic, which continues to be a <br />negatively growing concern. <br /> Do something to help auto traffic move more smoothly. <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
