Why Prioritize?
• Represents community values
• Lots of needs, but limited resources
• Need to make wise choices about how resources are used
• Need to communicate choices to others
• Need to build public/political support for action
• May be required for funding purposes

Committee Input from 4/16 Meeting
Committee Input Changes Made A. Don’t over-emphasize
crash data
A. Included more safety variables besides crashes (diminishes the influence of crash data)
B. Rethink overlap in variables between Connectivity and Demand – may double count some data
B. Refined variables to eliminate overlap
C. Geography is important: plan must provide balance between east and west.
C. Increased weight of geography factor for west side. Will also review results and make changes as needed to ensure geographic balance.
D. Demand analysis should consider future growth areas.
D. Added projected (2040) population and employment as a variable.

• Online survey and crowdsourcing map (over 800 responses) • Seven community meetings • Network shows connectivity, not specifically design projects,
planning level tool • Comments on the west side of the draft network (from 4/16 Ad
Hoc meeting) are being incorporated/addressed • High priority elements within network examined more closely, to
be included in the draft plan • Strategies to be reviewed by Ad Hoc Group Summer 2015
