I guess I should disclose that I’m now a CCAC member, and my tweets reflect my thoughts and opinions, and not that of the CCAC. #CCAC0522

I commented noting that density is great, *but* should be done so that people can get places *without* getting in cars, & we have infrastructure for bike/ped transportation.

More Matt Helt.

What about our schools being accessible by bike/ped?

Build a pavilion for the farmer’s market.

What about the fleet?

EV chargers?

Rooftop solar

Lots of talk; very little action.

Accountability in the plan w/ consequences.

Lots here.

“It’s a horrifying large number” –

One of our biggest burdens is the ability to hold onto staff.
