RR Measure may depend on purpose and housing type. Intent has been to finalize methods and details after City Commission has accepted the metric. Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time Consider adding “Pedestrian-oriented street intersections per square mile” to the notes section of Intersection Density as a way to explain this metric (you can also keep what is already there about trails). CC Prior Board discussion directed the shorter listing in the plan with more expansion descriptions as the items are developed and measured. Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time Under Commute Mode Share…what are we measuring here? What do we want to increase? Walking, biking, transit commute trips? SOV commute trips? CC Prior discussion directed the shorter listing in the plan with more expansion descriptions as the items are developed and measured. Previous discussion was on documenting non-Single Occupant Vehicle trips. Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time A City Bolstered by Downtown and Complementary Districts - Development vs Redevelopment: Target is to increase redevelopment but I'm not sure that is the right measure. If redevelopment equates to removing smaller more affordable housing and replacing with larger less affordable housing then this target makes other issues RR Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time 2 worse and is a failure. How are we reinsuring that redevelopment is equating to increased density or affordability? A City Bolstered by Downtown and Complementary Districts - Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Target is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, how do we expect to measure that? RR This measurement is by the Sustainability Division as part of the Climate Action Plan No action at this time A City Bolstered by Downtown and Complementary Districts - Vehicle Miles Traveled: Target is to reduce VMT which is an unattainable and unrealistic goal. We can't continue to grow outward and reduce how far we travel. RR Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time Page 52: A City that Prioritizes Accessibility and Mobility Choices - Transit Accessibility: Target is to increase % of jobs within a distance of a route. This is outside our control, Streamline’s survey response could be that residents want less routes and increased frequency and with that change we have instantly failed. RR Discuss Metrics discussion – no action at this time Under Acres Wholly Surrounded but Unannexed…why did we use the term “reduce” as opposed to “decrease” like all the others? CC Edit made 3 Page independent Metrics. I'd like to see the metrics more tightly integrated into the document, e.g. integrated into each vision theme section, after the "importance" section and before the goals / objectives / actions (rather than cordoned off to an appendix-like section at the back of the plan). If it's not possible to include current scores with the current draft then the metrics are too numerous and too complicated and we need to reduce and simplify. I'm happy to volunteer some of my time with Strategic Services to identify data sources, computation methodologies, and baseline scores for the draft metrics. ME Metrics were the subject of several months of discussion. Current arrangement is the direction of the Board. Some metrics apply to more than one goal or objective. Could be rearranged to put metrics associated with each Theme in each Theme rather than consolidated. The Board is making a recommendation, the City Commission sets the final metrics and text. It is premature to fully develop the metrics until the Commission has endorsed them. Board must consider whether the delay to assemble baseline values and targets and have them accepted is worth delaying the rest of the plan. Board can reduce the number of proposed metrics. Discuss
