ITEM #4 - REVIEW OF BICYCLE GUIDELINES Paula Harvey commented that the City Manager wanted a recommenda- tion from the Development Review Committee about some items in the bicycle plan. Planning"s approach to the Conunission is that they not adopt it as a formal policy but that they pay particular attention to Chapter 5 which is a statement of the goals and policies that one might anticipate to be in an adopted bicycling plan, and for them to give direction to staff that these policies be utilized in guidelines whenever the City staff is confronted with a particular situation pertaining to road construction, replacement of grates, etc. Ms. Harvey requested that the committee give input into which items they would like to see the Planning Department go forward with. o Chairman Haeseker suggested that the Committee go through the plan giving comments beginning with Chapter 5, Policy 1. CLEARWATER BICYCLING PLAN POLICIES Policy 1: Hav~ already adopted the same option as the County. Policy 2: Manufacturers will not declare one type of grate bicycle safe over another. Some are a lot safer than others and the City will certainly pick the safer ones available. Policy 3: Mr. Crawford expressed concern that this policy sounds as if when marking areas of a crosswalk, that we would stop when getting to an area considered a bicycle area. Feels this is contrary to the National Manual. Mr. Baker pointed to the portion of the policy that states ,.....whenever possible in light of all design requirements...... Policy 4: Mr. Baker states this policy absolutely has to be rewritten as the level of service would have to be raised above what is being given at this point in time. Regarding the 'repaving portion, 'paving all the 'way to the curb is not good for drainage. Will feather at the gutter line to eliminate the ridge. ", -....' , " t,,) , "0 Policy 5: Mr. Henderson states this is impossible to accommodate.

Policy 6: City currently corrects utility cuts to grade/either excessively humped or depressed cuts. Want to maintain authority to decide what are hazards and what are not hazards. Two weeks on repairs is not practical. Should read, "as soon as possible". Mr. Henderson expressed the opinion that if the Bicycle Plan is adopted then a bicycle tax to help defray costs should also be 'implemented. Mr. Crawford was of the opinion that much of this plan could be said in a simpler form which would eliminate a number of the pOlicies. Policy 7~ Mr. Crawford stated the City cannot control railroad crossings. The Florida Department of Transportation is the Agency in the State responsible for approving any new railroad crossing. The cost of bicycle safe intersections is prohibitive ($60,OOO for installation across half a road). Agree that crossings should be at 900 angles. Policy 8: Has always been a problem. Need to know the areas where a bicyclist is going to be. Motorcycles can be picked up on present detection devices, but not bicycles. May not be possible to do as this policy dictates. Would like policy to begin "Whenever possible...u Policy. 9: Basically says the same thing as Policy 8. Please delete. policy 10: Reword to say IIBicycles will be considered in the timing of traffic signals.1I Several of the items in this policy are 'already being done. Policy 11; Can't control on state routes but could on city streets that are bike routes. County made us remove signs that had been installed on bike routes throughout the City. policy 12: No problems with this policy. Policy 13: Needs to be del~ted. Policy 14: Already required by State law. Delete portion beginning with, "although the basic standard....1I Policy 15: Needs to be rewritten. Chairman Haeseker requested Ms. Harvey and Mr. Baker to get together to work out details. Policy 16: Is already being done. , Policy 17: A repeat of Policies land 14.
