Certainly I could see shopping businesses benefit as well - for example the Reading Bug hosts a book reading in front of the store. 01:08:50 Solomon Liu: Replying to "both these pedestria..." I think walking is conducive to all sorts of shopping; after all, malls are nice because you can just walk from one shop to the next 01:09:03 David Tuzman: Reacted to "I think walking is c..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:09:09 David Tuzman: Reacted to "Certainly I could se..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:09:11 Arley Lewis: Reacted to "I think walking is c..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:09:20 Arley Lewis: Reacted to "Certainly I could se..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:09:52 Solomon Liu: Very interesting traffic calming idea! 01:10:24 Aaron: Reacted to "Very interesting tra..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:10:42 Mark Bauhaus: Why not make 800 block one way if cars are allowed at all?

I was referring to 600/800 biking which needs to be safe for bikes and easy including preferred parking. 01:12:56 Michael Tundres: Is it to downplay the additonal four stories stackde on top of the buildings? 01:13:01 Solomon Liu: Is there an overhead view? 01:13:05 David Tuzman: Replying to "Why not make 800 blo..." which, I hope means that there will either be a dedicated path; or fully mixed use ped+bike (unlike today where biking is technically not allowed on 700) 01:13:14 David Tuzman: Reacted to "Yes thanks.

If you keep building more homes and business while not adding additonal roads you will get result of congestion, frustration and ultimately erosion of society over time. 01:18:09 Jon Rose: I agree with Michael. Traffic is already problematic during special events. 01:18:50 David Tuzman: good reason to optimize our cities to make non-car travel as attractive as possible 01:19:30 Solomon Liu: Replying to "Density is everythin..." As you say, density is everything, and cars are an extremely sparse method of transportation. Making our streets more friendly to walkers, bikers, and personal mobility devices is key to moving more people 01:19:44 Kristen Clements: Reacted to "As you say, density ..." with ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป 01:19:54 Solomon Liu: Reacted to "good reason to optim..." with ๐Ÿ‘ 01:20:20 Aaron: Have you looked at how to make the existing parking areas "better"? More spots, more availability, better traffic flow, cleaner, better lit, etc? 01:22:09 Solomon Liu: Noticing the loop is all left turns 01:22:31 cvescia@sbcglobal.net: San Carlos could really distinguish itself and retain charm if we favor independent businesses (not chains) in his re-imagined downtown. 01:22:51 Mark Bauhaus: The one way ideas are really interesting. But add bikes. Bikes are currently jammed into cars on San Carlos Av from Elm to train station and vice versa. Treacherous at best!

It's not the place to pinch pennies! 01:55:35 Sajuti Haque- City of San Carlos: There will be coffee and snacks! 01:55:43 Sajuti Haque- City of San Carlos: We are looking forward to seeing you all! 01:55:45 David Tuzman: Reacted to "There will be coffee..." with โ˜• 01:55:46 Aaron: Replying to "I do think you need ..." what is yc?

Working with the local business to figure out how and what to implement is an important component of this. If patrons win, businesses win, and vice versa. 02:12:08 Linnet Kwok - City of San Carlos: Replying to "I forgot to mentionโ€ฆ..." I live at that corner.
