Review and Provide Feedback on Draft RFP for Citywide Active Transportation Wayfinding

Staff member Bjorn Griepenburg presented the draft Request for Proposals (RFP) for a citywide active transportation wayfinding system — a project that would establish a network of signs and possibly other navigational aids to help pedestrians and cyclists find their way around the city using bike paths, trails, and walking routes.

The minutes record that multiple committee members asked questions of staff (Meyers, Yeager, Felix, Balshaw, Quint, Garcia, Goldman, Schleret), and public comment was received from Bruce Hagen, though the specific content of questions and comments is not captured in detail in the official minutes. Committee members then offered feedback comments (Balshaw, Schleret, Yeager, and Quint are noted as speaking during the Committee Comment phase).

*Note: Because the minutes record speakers by name only without summarizing their remarks, the specific feedback and concerns raised cannot be reported here. Residents interested in the details are encouraged to review the meeting recording or contact city staff.*

This item was advisory in nature — the committee's role was to review and provide feedback on the draft RFP before it is finalized, not to take a binding vote.
