MovingAhead Spring 2019 Outreach Summary 83 <br />through anyway. Most businesses along the line aren't happy with it, but you people ignored all <br />if that. <br /> I see River Road as a priority for the EmX followed by Coburg Road and then (possibly) Hwy 99. <br />Eugene has such lovely trees and they are valuable to our air quality, green city aesthetic, and <br />trees provide important shade during hot summers. I do hope trees that are removed translate <br />to new drought-resistant, climate-change-appropriate trees being planted in their place. As a <br />quick aside, I would love to see more electric vehicle recharging stations available in civic <br />parking lots and garages. <br /> The enhanced corridor for Coburg Road looks good. It seems like it won't take away bus stops, <br />which is my main criteria. It also doesn't look like it will impact property much, which is good. <br />However, a no-build would be totally fine with me. I live in a rental directly along Coburg Road <br />and there's large trees in the yard near the street and beside a potential crossing location. I <br />would not want the trees to have to be removed, nor would I imagine any other resident along a <br />corridor with potential build options. As long as private properties are not infringed upon, I <br />support the enhanced corridor. <br /> You need to prioritize ways to save our urban trees regardless of which options you end up <br />pursuing. <br />LTD Process <br /> Let the Public decide <br /> LTD must demonstrate true concern for the community and not be seen as ramming something <br />down our throats (witness the Springfield effort versus W. 11th EmX) <br /> How about, providing real information. I am attending university of Oregon school of <br />architecture, and developing urban development growth plans, certain information must be <br />made available. None of which is within this alleged report. The survey is heavily biased, and <br />only reflects specific points of view with no disclaimer of author provided. All these things reek <br />of a government, who like a large corporation, is seeking to mislead its customers or <br />constituents. <br /> This is silly, I am not an expert. <br />Walking <br /> Consider more than vehicle impacts on corridors. Pedestrian access to transportation options is <br />important. <br /> Attention to sidewalks and pedestrian access/safety. <br />Planning <br /> Help foster a sense of place with all these different roads/corridors/bus stops/cross walks/etc. <br />Creativity and practicality are both super important. <br /> I think that if you build EMX along River Road Avenue, you should build it in the middle of the <br />road like you do along Franklin Blvd. <br /> Aesthetics of bus stops, including overhangs to keep passengers dry <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
