REPORT TO BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN ADVISORY COMMITTEE
SUBJECT
Title
2025 Annual Work Plan (Liw)
Report
BACKGROUND
Each year, the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) prepares an annual work plan to manage workload and to help the public understand topics that will be discussed at BPAC meetings. The work plan consists of staff topics (i.e. grant funding opportunities, project and program updates, and Complete Streets review of applicable projects) and BPAC requested topics. Staff develops the overall work plan based on the priorities set by the BPAC, available staff resources and other priorities for the Department of Public Works (DPW), and the number of BPAC meetings in a calendar

Step 2 (2025 Work Plan Topics Discussion and Prioritization): At the August 26, 2024 meeting, staff will present the topics requested by the BPAC. These will consist of new topics requested by members in Step 1 as well as remaining agenda topics from the 2024 prioritization matrix that were not discussed in Years 2024 and 2023. Please note that staff did not include any topic requests prior to 2023 (12 topics) in an effort to better manage the overall list of topics. If BPAC members would like to reintroduce any of the topic requests not included, BPAC members can provide that feedback to staff at the August 26, 2024 meeting.
BPAC members are encouraged to discuss topics as needed. After the meeting, staff will transmit the list of all topics to BPAC members via email. BPAC members will then rank choice vote the topics and submit their votes to staff ...
