Victor will show photos of the problem areas along the two streets and talk about the many opportunities there are for the immediate, short, and long term.
In the immediate time frame big improvements in pedestrian and bicycle safety can be easily obtained (as shown in the photos above) by simply cleaning off existing pavement of dirt, plants, and overhanging vines which could widen the paved area along Hamilton from 6" to 2' outside of the white lines.
