    I am opposed to the amendment of this ordinance item, as it does not state how many lanes of traffic there are before and after the project completion. I am against road diets, as they negatively affect small business owners, increase traffic and pollution.

    Please do NOT implement Road Diets! The specifics (# of lanes of traffic) available before and after the project are not listed in this agenda item. Road Diets put small businesses out of business, increase crashes and serious injuries, increase traffic and pollution. Will the implementation of these improvements really enhance roadway and sidewalk conditions for pedestrians, bicyclists, and vehicular traffic, or reduce lanes causing more traffic congestion.
