5. Updates from the City - Ashley (5:50 p.m. - 15min)
a. AARP Challenge
i. Nic - would be an easier win to go for $5000-$10,000 grant.
ii. Ashley - due April 1st - hesitant to start unless we can find a project to
propose in that time. Asking committee to start thinking about it
iii. Bob - Williston road crossings could be potential project
1. Cathy - meets community needs now
2. Shawn - I like Williston road projects
a. Unanimous agreements
iv. Nic - Hinesburg road crosses all exactly the same design
1. Ashley - have to work with State, may not happen as fast.
b. NNECAPA
i. Maybe have SBBPC lead discussion
ii. Nic - Amanda and Nic are doing similar thing already
1. Under funding and advocacy piece
2. Need to brainstorm how to create a longer presentation. The
current presentation is 10 minutes, they have allocated 1.5 hours.
iii. Ashley - already been submitted
1. Next step - to review with committee
c. Airport parkway
d. Jug handle
i. Already on priority list.
ii. Bollards are in
6. Major - Review of bike/ped for the BlackRock project before the DRB - Cathy (6:05 p.m.
- 15min)
a. Objective: Provide committee input on the design
b. Ben and Bryan from public presenting
c. 32 residential units, 7 acres, loop road
d. Proposing to connect 10’ wide rec path from Dorset street to internal
development road, then 8’ wide to tie to existing rec path.
e. Bryan - concerned new rec path be confused as private path instead of public?
i. Add signing to both ends of rec path
f. Alternate option: change side walk along development road to rec path to
connect to existing rec path.
g. Nic - plans show 12’ and 7’ widths? Has that changed
i. Bryan - has changed to 10’ and 8’ since plans were submitted.
ii. Bryan - 10’ rec path is just another means of egress from the
development for “emergency”. Not for emergency vehicles.
1. No bollards on path.
h. Nic - good idea of signs at intersection to existing rec path
i. Use existing city path typology and requirements
1. Bryan - would be happy to use sign recommendations
ii. Nic - likes how path meanders through the center of the development.
i. Donna - could see potential differences to path, going around development, not
through.
i. Ben - Input from city staff - did like going through development
1. Ben - isn’t a large enough area to have a park.
ii. Bob - like that community members can go straight out in the direction
they want to go
iii. Donna - are the paths using existing landscape and trees?
1. Bryan - will be completely new landscaping. Does not assume any
existing vegetation can be saved.
iv. Donna - would like to connect from east connection of existing rec path
around the outside of the development to the Dorset rec path.
v. Donna - will there be special surface treatment of crossing of rec path by
two roadways to development? Could be dangerous for pedestrians and
especially to bikes going downhill. Need some type of indicator for
drivers.
1. Paint wears off in 1-year, some type of texture to stopping area.
2. Donna - also do not want landscaping to prevent visibility to rec
path and oncoming pedestrains.
3. Nic - add signs 50-100 feet before stop to “look for pedestrain
crossing”. Important for drivers to look right, in addition to them
already looking left.
a. Shawn - need to educate on a city level. Do similar to what
Burlington is doing: raise crossings at intersections.
vi. Shawn - we have cross walks all over the city that are not maintained
well.
vii. Bryan - will be striping crossings.
viii. Donna - do you have landscaping plans yet?
1. Bryan - In process, nothing to share at this time.
ix. Donna - Portion of rec path below lower access road was recently
repaved. The upper portion will likely need repair or repaving after
construciton is completed. Will there be protection or repaving?
1. Bryan - anything impacted will be repaved
a. Utilities coming from Dorset.
2. Donna - we should expect it to be repaved with this project as it
will be the least expensive time to do it.
x. Bryan - fees are collected for rec department during construction, based
on number of residential units.
xi. Shawn - should make repaving Park Road section of rec path a priority -
not in great shape.
xii. Ben - would “happily” just repave existing paths instead of creating
additional path. Was suggested by city staff to add path through
development.
1. Ben - if SBBPC suggested would rather have improvements to
existing path versus adding new path through development, would
oblige.
xiii. Donna - could do a “soft” path instead of paved/hard path. Could save
money.
1. Nic - are harder to maintain - more weeds.
2. Bryan - worry about grade build up and maintaining.
3. Donna - All soft paths in Wheeler park, would match.
j. Next steps: SBBPC supports design as presented. Suggest to use SB “way
finding” sign package.
i. Committee discussed other options but agreed to move forward with
construction as presented.
ii. Ashley/Paul to send “way finding” document to Bryan and Ben.
7. Major - Proposal to offer business sponsorship for bike/ped projects - Ashley (6:20 p.m.
- 15min)
a. Objective: Discussion of idea to gauge committee interest
b. Objective: If there’s interest, define who will participate, and next steps
c. Interesting way to get more financial support, community engagement, and
business awareness.
i. Cathy - there are benches that are sponsored by various
individuals/companies/organizations
ii. Bob - had discussed to have this done with the Kimbal path, but never
pursued.
iii. Cathy - UVM medical center has pump/workout stations on Burlington
Bike Path.
iv. Ashley - asking for help from committee. Next objective is find interest
from SBBPC. Ashley could not lead it but could be involved.
1. Could partner with Economic Development Committee.
v. Shawn - need to be deliberate with projects and ideas we work on as a
committee. Need to review bandwidth.
1. Ashley - use for specific projects.
vi. Cathy - certain projects and locations would be ideal for this type of
fundraising. Need to be more strategic.
vii. Bob - maybe not this year, but could be on projects for next year. Could
be for projects near the hospital.
viii. Donna - Adopt a highway program - can recreation path wayfinding
signage be an avenue or potential option? Already an unfunded project of
the city.
ix. Cathy - we should make a running list that fall into this category.
x. Shawn - 1) committee is interested. 2) Does anyone want to lead the
effort? Not at this time. Will work on creating list of potential ideas
projects, and start making priority once we have bandwidth available.
xi. Shawn - will create central repository for ideas. Request all committee
members to send ideas to him. We will discuss at future meetings.
8. Minor - Review of the SBBPC Project List - Shawn (6:35 p.m. - 10min)
a. Objective: Review of final mid-year status update
b. Objective: Review the project tracking process & get committee input on any
adjustments needed
i. Bob suggested we do mid-year review of projects.
1. Shawn - we should formalize this process and review.
a. Repeat process next January.
b. Shawn will mark completed ones as green and moved to
completed tab. Then review new projects.
2. Bob - list is missing projects we are working on
a. Tilley Drive crosswalk
b. Should we add one for Kennedy and Williston road
crosswalks?
i. Ashley - not actively working on these projects.
Could say they are in scoping.
ii. Bob - worried if we don’t list as separate item, it
may be forgotten.
3. Donna - there is work on Tilley drive right now
a. Part of state review, crosswalk not part of current
construction plan
4. Shawn - Need update from Paul
a. Would need approval of scoping study and get public
feedback.
b. No real sense in listing projects if they aren’t scoped.
i. Shawn - we can list what is involved in scoping
study, so we don’t lose track.
5. Dana - she should be on the “Bicycle Friendly Community” sub-
committee group.
6. Shawn - if anyone sees anything that needs to be corrected
project sheet, send email to Shawn.
9. Updates: Ongoing Committee Work (6:45 p.m. - 30min)
a. General updates from committee members (~3-5min per person)
b. Cathy - DRB wants final approval on gas station (Shelburne road/Queen city
park). Trying to move rec path crossing to be aligned on side of roads (moved
west connector from the North to the South side of the intersetion) but could not
do as desired because it would require new road striping. The DRB would like
formal approval from SBBPC to approve as is.
i. Ashley will send approval based on previous SBBPC meeting approval.
c. Cathy - did not create articles for SoBu or Other Paper, because of election
cycle. Next articles will be safety related.
d. Donna - Schools
i. Suzie hasn’t been able to get interest from PTOA.
ii. Someone suggested that specific parents/families present, might be
better reception.
1. Do we put out on Front Porch Forum (FPF)? How do we find
these parents/families.
2. Nic - loosely asked PTOA, asked if he could present. Was told not
this year.
3. Nic - we could contact Principal at Chamberlain.
4. Nic - how do we tap in middle & high school.
iii. Donna - school buses do stop for kids that live closer to schools.
Supposed to only pick up students >.5 miles from schools.
iv. Shawn - if we want extended discussion, could add to next months
discussion as larger item.
e. Bob
i. Met about Hinesburg road speed limits. Requested traffic study for
Williston to southern border with Shelburne.
ii. Two safety issues on our listing:
1. No right on red signs at intersection of Dorset and Swift. Right
now - walk light goes on. Do we need to keep moving forward with
signs?
a. Nic - does Ped have time before cars get green light?
Shawn - yes. Only activates when crosswalk is pressed.
b. Donna - going south out of town is a critical location as
people do not stop completely when turning right on red..
c. SBBPC - continue to move forward
2. Was recommending to City to allocate 3-5% to replacing rec
paths. Should we continue forward with this recommendation or
change?
a. Ashley - should start when budget season comes
b. Shawn - start talking with Justin to get his input before
budget season.
f. Shawn
i. Target getting striping priority list before the April meeting. Will discuss at
that meeting as a group. Will be asking for input and review before
meeting.
ii. One of the community members has reached about a sidewalk near
Proctor Ave, near Rice High school. Has asked to be on agenda, will be
on April agenda. Will determine if we want to add to next CIP.
1. Amanda - can we also look at the full project list again at that time.
2. Shawn - where is the list on the new drive?
a. Amanda - will find and send out to committee to review.
3. Ashley - CIP list should review projects that are going to move
forward.
4. Donna - is there a policy for sidewalks in existing neighborhoods?
a. Ashley - will look into it.
g. Ashley - public health announcement
i. Can setup conference call if needed.
10. Confirmation: Next meeting Wednesday, April 8, 2020 @ 5:30pm

MEMORANDUM
TO: South Burlington Bicycle & Pedestrian Committee
FROM: Staff Project team: Paul Conner, Director of Planning & Zoning; Justin Rabidoux,
Director of Public Works; Ashley Parker, City Project Manager
SUBJECT: Draft Final Bike/Ped Scoping Studies
DATE: July 17, 2020
Staff is pleased to present three (3) Draft Final Bicycle and Pedestrian Scoping Reports for the Committee’s
review and possible action. As discussed briefly last winter, we’re recommending that these be the first projects
that we implement a more formalized acceptance and endorsement process for.
The three enclosed scoping reports are:
1. Pedestrian and Bicycle Feasibility Study for: Allen Road (west end); Hinesburg Road (Kennedy Dr to
Williston Rd); Spear Street (US Forest Building south); and Fayette Road [note: drawings for the
alternatives are posted online]
2. Concepts for Pedestrian Crossings on Williston Road and Kennedy Drive
3. Bike Lane Feasibility at Williston Road/Hinesburg Road, Williston Road/Kennedy Drive
The Committee has previously reviewed and provided feedback on drafts of the first report; the second and
third reports have been informally discussed but not yet presented or reviewed by the Committee or other
public bodies.
Process:
For these three reports, staff is recommending that the Committee consider endorsing a preferred alternative
(or as applicable, the preferred short-term and long-term alternatives) or otherwise conclude the study for each
project within the Reports for recommendation to the City Council, for their approval and conclusion of the
projects.
Project Team Recommendations:
As there are a number of individual projects contained within these reports, staff has created a table showing
the alternatives and variations for each so that it’s a little more digestible. For details on any of the projects,
please visit the reports themselves. The staff project team has also provided a recommendation to the
Committee for each project. In just about every case, the project team’s recommendations are rooted in and
aligned with feedback previously provided by the Committee, but may have some additional detail and
recommendations regarding an individual variation. In the case of the pedestrian crossing study, the project
team has made a recommendation for the Committee to consider under each.

Bike/Ped Staff Update – 10/14/2020
• City Hall is open to the public with reduced hours and one entrance. Masks are required and
you are not allowed into the main part of the building. Most meetings are being scheduled
remotely. Hours of operation are: 9 am – 12 pm; 1 pm – 4 pm.
• Grant Opportunity: VTrans has announced that it will take applications for its Transportation
Alternatives grant. Applications are due Friday, November 27, 2020. Maximum award is 300K;
match is 20%. It is a federally funded grant. Awards would be announced in February 2021. I
have asked for the timing of funds to assist in determining which project(s) might be better
suited. There is a webinar on October 14th, 10 AM – 11:30 AM (Join webinar by clicking on the
virtual meeting link at: https://vtrans.vermont.gov/highway/local-projects/transport-alt). If the
Committee feels this would be a valuable grant for P4P projects, staff would need support in
putting the application package together.
• The draft CIP for Bike/Ped Improvements through FY22 – FY31 will be shown and discussed
tonight. Staff has been working on this with City Management, Justin Rabidoux, and Bob Britt.
If the Committee is supportive of this draft CIP, staff will draft a memo for Council to go with this
CIP as they review it, possibly in December.
Penny for Paths Projects Updates – 10/14/2020
• Jug Handle Sidewalk: Construction began on this project in September and Justin relayed that it
is going well. The bollards are going in and the project should be completed in the next few
weeks.
• Allen Road Rec Path: City staff have had a difficult time connecting with the attorney for one of
the landowners. The landowner is in agreement with the easements. Staff is working with our
consultant to prepare construction bid documents for this project, which would be released in
December. A contractor would be selected to build the project in spring/early summer of 2021.
• Airport Parkway Sidewalk & On-Road Bike Lanes: Our engineers have been continuing design
work on this project. Staff has met with the affected landowners along the project, and expects
a fairly smooth process in negotiating required construction licenses. There are a few details
left to figure out, but this project is on schedule to be put out to bid in December as well.
Construction would be slated for late spring/early summer.
• South Dorset Street Shared Use Path: Stantec continues to work on the design and engineering
for this project. We are at the 30% level, and the Committee is expected to review the current
set of plans at this meeting (separate agenda item). The project team was expecting to submit
the design for permitting, but there was a slight delay in that. It shouldn’t put off the initial
permitting submission too much.
• Underwood Parcel Shared Use Path: Staff has reviewed a 30-60% design. The latest update will
be presented at the Joint Committee Meeting of Bike/Ped, Natural Resources & Conservation,
and the Recreation & Parks Committees on October 27th. Plans will be shared and public
feedback sought. We are looking to submit this project to permitting soon, and the team is
hopeful for construction next summer.
• Kimball Culvert & Bike/Ped Infrastructure: The City Stormwater Department received a grant to
fund the design and construction of the Kimball Ave culvert project. The bike/ped infrastructure
components of this project are to be funded with Penny for Paths and Rec Impact fee dollars as
proposed in the CIP. It was hoped that construction of this project would begin next
spring/early summer, but the state recently alerted the City that funds for this grant would not
be distributed this year. Justin has indicated that it is still the Department’s intention to
construct this project given its importance. If anything changes regarding this project’s timeline,
I will let the Committee know.
