29426 resolution adopting a vision zero policy to eliminate traffic fatality and serial injury. So uh council I'm sorry uh D
Malti from planning director will be here but he told me that's >> good evening counselors. Thank you uh Ilis Reyes 360 March Street. >> Thank you. >> Thank you for having us. So we're really excited about this. This is the vision
zero um or resolution. I've been here before. We've been here before to talk about the safe streets and roads for all grant that the city received to create a safety a
comprehensive safety plan. And so under that or one of the um contingencies to create that safety plan is to create a vision zero uh plan for the city of Lawrence. Vision zero means zero deaths due to vehicle
fatalities. And unfortunately uh the last 5 years and my colleague can correct me if I'm wrong but it's been uh the last 5 years we've had about 15 fatalities due to uh vehicle injuries. And so Vision Zero is to have a a safer
Lawrence. And we have here tonight TEC who is the engineering firm that was contracted through the safe streets and roads for all grants through the federal highway. and they have been actively working with the city to create the
vision zero plan. So they will be presenting tonight the resolution and we're excited to be here. >> Thank you. >> All right. >> Good evening counselors. My name is Ron Samat, 282 Marmac uh street. Uh I'm a
transportation planner and designer with TEC as Lily mentioned. to the mic. >> Am I not? Okay. TEC is a um consulting firm uh helping the office of planning and uh development to um develop a um
vision zero safety action plan. So, um, the city is recipient of, uh, $250, uh,,000 funding to actually, um, uh, develop this action plan through the SS4A that Lily mentioned, safe street and roads
for all uh, program. And I would like to explain what is um vision zero, why is it important for the city of Lawrence and why we are asking for your support um in adopting the vision zero um resolution.
Um can we see the slides or I have some maybe we should we should roll this. >> Oh the in here. >> Yeah. Awesome. And also if you need copies I have some
>> Oh my god that I don't like it. >> So what is vision zero? So um it's a commitment that no one should lose their life um or suffer a serious injury while traveling on our streets and it
recognizes that mistakes happen and um we people make mistakes there you know pedestrian might misjudge traffic and drivers might get frustrated or distracted. Uh we want to make sure that
our transportation systems are designed in a way that those mistakes um do not result in death or serious injury. And vision zero is a proactive datadriven process. So we focus on um crash data
and um looking at the hotspots and um instead of waiting for the crashes to happen, we we want to um see what are the trends and what happened before to understand the safety challenges on a
roadway. And it also it's looking beyond just um u engineering fixes. It also um looks into um policy changes, enforcement, um targeted education and um land use um
um policies and operational practices um and community engagement. And the goal ultimately is uh develop a transportation safety action plan that would be tailored for the city of Lawrence. And um it will be a followup
to a study that Mayak Valley uh planning commission did and as part the they reviewed the Maymak Valley and then Lawrence was included. They identified some areas as part of that study but this study will be just focusing on all
the um Lawrence um area. Um and so why vision zero? Um so the need for this becomes clear when we look at the data. Um we looked into the recent
crashes and over the uh last five years there were 15 fatalities from 2019 to 2025 are the most recent uh crash um data that we got and 10,478 crashes happened. and um 200 of them
approximately were serious injury crashes and about 1,600 were minor injury crashes with um 800 about 800 being possible injuries. So um maybe like people involved they not they did
not seek medical attention at the time of the crash. But if we count those as like some sort of like you know if there was a minor injury and they went to the ER you know after they would all count into um injury uh crashes. So we want to
know why are these crashes happening. Um and we also want to um recognize that the roadway safety is influenced by many factors and uh we want to know that what are are there any social trends or any
behavioral trends that are contributing to these safety issues and also are there any roadway designs that are causing the issues and um are there any policies or development practices that
um unintentionally is causing um issues that will you know um end up in fatality crashes. And be mindful that uh the streets should be designed that uh when people make mistakes they it does not cost them their life or cause them any
serious injury. So when this resolution is adopted um our work begins. So basically TEC would uh over the coming months TEC would closely work with the city staff and um
the public and regional the planning agency and um uh safety departments to develop this safety action plan. Um our work would include analyzing the crash data and um looking into the areas with
high-risk um locations and we want to evaluate equity considerations and um engage with residents and develop practical recommendations for improving uh safety. We will also look into
existing policies that are in effect and want to identify new policies that would um then procedures that can support safer transportation system in the city and the work must be completed by the
end of this year and um at the end of it it will provide city with a road map of um roadmap for improving um the roadway system. Yeah. >> Um so what we started it we didn't start
from the scratch. So as I mentioned Mayor Mac Valley uh planning commission they um they uh prepared a study and also the city of Lawrence were investing in um many transportation improvement
projects. So highlighted in this map um you can see some um different color circles, small circles and then lines. Those are um projects that are in design or under construction or completed
within the city. And the green ones are the areas identified in the NVPC vision zero uh plan. And the black um little black squares are the uh locations where a fatality happened. And um we will
build upon um like these efforts and it will help us prioritize locations that um we see urgent and we think it uh you know will have greatest safety benefit.
Um and this will allow the city to also coordinate improvements within each of the departments to um you know coordinate it better instead of just approaching single projects at a time and it will create a more strategic and
efficient process for any future investments. Um so this is the same map again but here we we're looking at um locations that um were not included in any other
improvement projects. Um the more yellow you see that means more crashes happen in those areas. Um and as you can see some of these areas have um single intersection have uh crashes up to 155
crashes over the past 5 years. And um and some locations may require um engineering improvement, but um they also might benefit from operational changes or um enforcement efforts um
public education and um policy changes. And the action plan um decision zero action plan would determine which solution is better for each of these location. It might be citywide. It might be specific to each location. Uh so that
the action plan would help us identify that. So and I I'd like to clarify exactly what this resolution does. When this resolution is adopted, it doesn't require the city to commit to uh you
know major capital um spending or any construction projects. Instead, it would establish the city's commitment to transportation safety and it um formally adopts the vision zero principles which
is zero death, zero severe injury crashes and supports a datadriven uh decision making by looking into the crash data and it encourages collaboration between different parts of the you know departments in the city and
eventually authorizes uh the development of a comprehensive uh safety action plan. So we're going to when the vision zero resolution is adop adopted then this will allow us to move forward with um developing that safety action plan um
which we already started working on it. We have a task force um and we are working to engage more with public but this is the first step that you know needs to be addressed before we can move forward with the rest of it and just as importantly adopting the vision zero uh
strengthen the city of Lawrence's ability to uh compete for uh future state and federal transportation safety um safety grants and many grant programs now look upon on those communities who
um adopted vision zero and have a safety action plan um in hand and the city can uh you know this resolution when it's adopted it positions the city of Lawrence in you know an advantage you
know to take advantage of those funding opportunities. Um so with that I um respectfully um ask for your support um for adopting this resolution and um please let me know if
you have any questions. >> Thank you counselor. Any discussion or any question on this item >> through your chair? >> Councelor Rosario >> love the plan but there's nothing there's not I love when they contract
the company the company goes to data that is already in there and they collect the bit of data but the best data knowledge is consulars and district and we don't get involved in that. I get every call when there's an accident in my neighborhood
and we don't we don't get used we don't get our mind news so we don't participate in providing data you guys got what the road says what the police is in there but we have little roads in our in our neighborhoods where accident happens every day and people may not
report it we have when was it I was talking back there that it's uh where the crutches happen what the what the speeding is happening what people asking for and it Nobody picks a brain. I mean, we go data is picked of what is already in there and we pay thousands of dollars
with this with this uh consultants, whatever the consultant is, which I love. I love it. I'm I'm all in favor. But we pay thousands of dollars for consultants that what they do is what I do, right? They go in, I'll go to the police station and says, "How many crutches happen on Alder Street?" And they're going to give me that. And I
say, "Oh, that's a high thing. It's 15 crutches there." And that's how they do the work. But you guys don't use nine of us here that we get calls every day from constituents or how the traffic is out there, where the crutches are. I mean, where people are asking for I mean
behavior changes like settle lights or change that intersection. We we we engage on those conversation every day, 365 days a year, but we pay thousands of dollars on consultants that are going to just pick the data that is already in there, but they don't have contact with
with the everyday situation that we that we face like counselors. I mean, I'm talking about myself what I represents what the I believe where where the worst traffic is right now in the city. But I mean, the consultants command charges the city and I love what how they put
it. Now, we're going to put we adopt this and the city is in a great advantage to take grants. Take grants for what? To contract more consultants and not pick our brains. Um, again, I love it. I'm in favor of it, but I I want you guys to give us to to let us
participate in this type of things. I mean, police officers, are they in there? You know, you took a drive with me. Did you counelor? Let's drive for your war street and and let's sit down 15 minutes on Alder and Hamster Street so you can see their behavior. No, but they go and
check the data. I mean it's it's it's great. I like the plant but we are in contact with the people every day. We are at the cont we get the calls when the accident happened with the complaints what the what the worst areas on the city is and we still go out and
contract outside contract with this lovely consultants that they they talk beautifully and they put it on and in in videos like they do but we we do it on a real life on an everyday basis. So again, I'm in favor, but I would love the city to that's why nine of us are
here too. Uh to put our input into this and this type of things that happen on an everyday basis affect our neighborhoods, affect our people. Where are you guys located? On Mar Street. >> Yeah. 282 M Street. >> So you see it the traffic on Mar Street is different in Hampshire Street and
Alder. So from their office, they don't see what they what I see from Juniper Street. So, you know, they don't they don't struggle to get out of the parking how I struggle and and the car is flying by and we don't we don't sit out on a table to have this conversation. Listen, we got this grant and we're going to
spend it in this. What do you guys think? We're going to contract this this this consultant. That's how I see it. But again, I love the plan. I think we should improve, but we got to do it more realistic. I mean, I I I drive up and down at at the
Allington neighborhood where where nobody wants to drive. Uh I don't sit at home and pull out the data from the police station. I I live it on an everyday basis. Uh and and that's how we how that's how I think the city should even though we should contract consultants, but you should pick your
own people, our brains, and our and our daily activities that we that we deal with on an everyday basis. That's that's all I have to say. It's lovely. The presentation is lovely. I'm all in favor for improvement. I I think traffic needs to improve but we also need to look another thing we get hundreds of people coming in from different countries on an
everyday basis. So that that data have to change on an everyday basis on an everyday basis. We have 20,000 more cars than what we had in in in 2019. So that data from 2019 to now is different.
It that's that's all I have to say. But but again I I like the plan. I think we should go with this and and and and see what happens. But again, we got to be more realistic. Consultants consultants are great. They coming from somewhere part of the city that they don't struggle like I do and they don't have
the data. I do the real data. You know, the car from the neighborhood that is crashed right outside and and what are we going to do with that street that the cars are crashing on an everyday basis but just parked or whatever. So, let's see what happens. So again, I love the presentation, but I think the city also
have nine brains over here with different situations on an everyday basis that we deal with the people everyday basis. We drive our city. We don't pull out data from the police station. We do drive our city on an everyday basis.
>> May I add some comment? So I I understand your point and the reason we're you know hired to like do this is actually gather all this information that you're like talking about. So we're you know there was like a salsa event that we created a map so that people can
like comment where they see as issue problems. So we want to bring everything that we see including the crash data but not just limited to the crash you know more engagement get more engagement from the public and also you know being in front of you to present this and also we
were at the board of health to get their support for this so we can gather as much input as we can to find the strategies that's going to help with the you know issues in the city and you know the safety problems in the city. Um, would you like to add anything else
>> through you counselor? And uh, I would also like to add, well, I would like to say thank you so much for your feedback because, you know, I I can put myself in your shoes and it may seem like, you know, we just get consultant after consultant
after consultant. And uh I want to say that you guys are in luck because we're still in the early planning phases. So you are welcome to attend the vision zero task force meetings that we will be having on a more regular basis. We had
our first vision zero task force meeting. I think it was two months ago and uh unfortunately there was a little bit of a low attendance from the city and I have here the vision zero task
force committee members and we do have councelor Selena Reyes, counselor Franklin Miguel uh on that and you should have received an invitation over two months ago to attend the vision zero
meeting and so again there's still opportunity to participate provide feedback and all your ideas uh what we'll do is invite you again and hope that you attend. >> That's great. You know why it was low attendance?
>> No, >> I can tell you cuz you didn't invite me. You didn't invite none of us. We we run we we we represent the people. I can invite the people from my neighborhood to be part of it. He can he could invite the people from his neighborhood he represent to invite them. If we not if we represent the people, if we're not invited, if we're not part of the
conversation, the people are not going to show up. We are the one that have engagement with the people on an everyday basis and and and to be frankly honest, we we're not part of any decision making on the on the on the on the on the city unless it's here now that you want us to adopt this
resolution. But I wasn't invited to write the resolution. I wasn't invited to that first meeting two months ago. Can you bring the people from that? I I have one of the worst corners, Lawrence, which is not there. Lawrence and Allington Street. It's not there.
>> It's the worst block in the Lawrence and and in Lawrence, and I have and I have the Rotary at the cemetery, which is the worst part of the city, and it's not even there. But we can we can bring that in. But I could if I was invited, I would have bring those people from there, and you can hear how a struggle
they have on those on those blocks, and they can talk to you what the struggle is. But if I'm not part of the conversation, how my people that I represent are going to be part of the conversation. But again, I I I I love the vision. I'm all for it. I I just think that to get
participation and to get the real feedback, you need to get us involved a little bit more. >> I will personally send you the invitation for our next vision zero meeting. I promise.
Um, councelor Reyes, do you have do you are you over? Uh, councelor de Rosario. >> Okay. Councelor Reyes, do you have any question? >> Uh, yes. I have a I'm not sure she is there, but I want to
say thank you to my colleagues cons Rosario for bringing out this uh beautiful comment because I think working together is very important to us. At the same time through the presentation I try to
find out we include through the student uh uh Lauren Coner Allington Street because I don't see through the presentation. >> Mhm. I believe they will start in this as
soon as we get the the the resolution then I know that something else will get done and now they can introduce all that kinds of streets and stuff like that counselor but but we'll listen to them. >> Thank you counselor because that's area
we receive a lot of phone call and a lot of concern in this area. >> Good evening counselors. My name is Randy Fanini. I'm one of the city planners uh comprehensive planners uh for the planning department. Just to answer the comments or questions about
Arlington Street and Lauren Street that uh that intersection is part of a different project uh that Mass DT is uh facilitating for the city. They are kind of like fixing the entire street to make it safer for children to walk to the
school. And that intersection I believe is included in that project. Uh it was actually the first part of the conversation about that project. Um that project is ongoing on the city side. We're already uh speaking with the community members or uh the abotterers
to the project just so that we can then start uh probably next year with the construction phase but that is already in conversations. >> Well, thank you. Thank you for clarification. >> Thank you madam chair. Okay, Lily, do
you want to add something? >> Oh, I just also wanted to add uh that we do have the fire chief on this uh task force. We have the captain uh also at from the
fire department. We have pretty much everyone from different departments, even the school department, uh even local nonprofits. And so we are being mindful of having as many voices as possible, but it's impossible to have
everyone on the task force, but we do encourage as many people as possible to attend them. >> Council me um thank you for the presentation. It was um good to know that we are taking you know the you know first steps to to
address one of the conditions that is actually affecting all the neighborhoods in in the city of Lawrence. Um I will appreciate that for next uh meeting I get the calendar invite so we can you know be part of it and I have to agree with my colleague councelor uh the
Rosario. Uh I noticed that in in the map uh at least in my day street there are other streets that needs to be included. Uh we are the one that get the calls on a daily basis. Um like for instance I know that ferry street is I didn't see
anything on ferry uh prospect or uh high street and woodland. So those three are major street that you know they fly through there. The people usually drive like it is a highway. So if you want to, you know, take some notes and at those
and the intersection of uh Berkeley and Jackson, that area is also very u um heavy traffic and and a lot of concerns. Uh we receive on a daily basis concern in related to traffic. I I can be one of the counselor that probably called the
police department every day. Um so I'm very active also in my neighborhoods in my neighborhood just driving around as well as my colleague and and making sure that um you know our resident are pleased with the situation and one of
the main concern is the speeding in in the streets. So I just wanted to highlight that and I'm in favor of this resolution but I just wanted to to bring that up. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Um thank you for the
presentation that was great you know and to know so many things regarding what is happening but I agree with my uh fellow counselor regarding uh that we all know included practically sometimes um the
tax forces that is one thing that I already mentioned uh before that we should as a as a council we should be invited to the tax for in principle things like this uh that we need to
participate because we are the the one who receive the phone call uh we are the one that has to face the the the the face of the residents any time that they call us that we has to call the the fire department the police department so many
other agency the inspectional service so we are the one who face the resident and that's is why We need to know what is going to happen, what is happening in our city. So like I can respond and I can speak with regarding prospertory and
I didn't see practically this three uh uh my the council Miguel he's part of the this 3A I can respond about like a prospertory it's a very area we are very heavy traffic and also
this is two hospital practically every every side of of the street and we had the ambulance And we had the fire department. We had so many car and it looks like that the traffic in there.
They think that we are in a highway and I'm very sometime I'm very scared almost in my in the corner of Fulton and prospect almost every day we have a
we have something in that happening in there. the same thing near to to the hospital the Lauren general hospital because they are not putting attention and I'm been uh council me and myself we've been calling you know and say that
we have to put some kind of attention we are asking for flashlight uh at the at the school that is over there we had a hospital right across the the the S3 and people don't think that we had children sometime crossing the the S3 is
a very heavy traffic and they running like I said before like a highway. So I'm glad that we are working on something like this to the vision set of policy but if you have a meeting and
that meeting only have one counselor ask for because why the other one are not there but when you send an invitation and this is something that I'm asking so you send an invitation it's more easy to say City council
and invite or all the city council a large no a large so by district whatever but as if we mention and the invitation all members of the city council so that mayor is right in there because we want to be part of whatever that is happen in
this city we are the one who must try to take care of what's happening in our neighborhood and we will appreciate it. So, thank you so much for the presentation. That was great. >> Thank you,
>> C. Motion to send to city attorney and Lawrence police department. >> There is a motion to send to city attorney Lawrence Police Department. >> Yep. >> Made it by council Miguel. Can I hear a second?
discussion. >> Uh there is a second and discussion de Rosario. >> Yeah, this is a resolution. So I mean the word it's already in the resolution and the police had nothing to do with this because they have a consultant to do the study. So that's that's what I'm
seeing. So this resolution >> suggestion just to send it to the city attorney for uh to review the language of the >> well if you want to send it you can send the review that that yeah I mean if they want to review the the language I'm assuming that it's already in here but
um if you want to send it there yeah and also this should go right up to the full council to get approve of the resolution and you can send it up by pending >> pending the documentation from the city attorney. Yeah, police have I believe nothing to do with it. >> Yeah. Okay.

Santia Bakery as submitted by councelor Reyes and councelor Miguel. After review, the Lawrence Police Department defers its recommendation to the city for further evaluation. Matters involving residential parking controls are best addressed through
traffic engineering review, including an assessment of roadway conditions, parking demand, signage, and compliance with applicable standards. These determinations fall outside the primary subject matter expertise of the Lawrence Police Department and are more appropriately evaluated through
professional traffic engineering analysis. Yeah. Through your chair. >> Through your chair. >> Okay. So, officer Sto, I see that every everyone has the same outcome, right? So, do we
have to change here the way that we do things? since I've been sitting here even this type of matters we've been sending to the police the police bring back the resolution but now I'm seeing all this defer through an engineering department that I'm going to say we don't have an engineer and this has been
done for the police uh this has been done by the police for the longest that I've been here >> so are we changing the way we're doing things >> so that's a great question counselor uh this is coming directly from the chief >> okay >> uh so I was I was told by my supervisor,
his supervisor, and it came down from the chief that when it comes to anything um outside of handicap parking at this time, we are to respond with this response. >> Okay. So, Madam Chair, so what we have to going to do, what we going to have to
do is revise everything that we have here on the ordinance sitting at the police station and reroute it completely to the to tons of uh of ordinance that we draft the same way because I know I have a few
of those waiting >> cuz it Yeah, cuz if it's changing, we going to have to check our ordinance that on the waiting maybe sitting at officer sort of desk and it's going to have the same outcome. So it's going to
take now longer for residents to get what they need. I mean when it comes I thought it was just one. I mean when it comes to Santi that have meters I understand you know >> I knew that was probably come back and said the engineering is a meter there and there also a no parking zone on the
Ansberry side. I would myself as a city council, I would have put it in. I would tell I would tell Santia that listen, you have a meters outside on Exo Street and and Ansbury are no parking zone. There's no way we're going to put a 15minute there. >> Um but but there's other ones that
>> Yeah, counselor. I mean, I I I agree with you and it's >> but that's okay. It's just trying to >> maybe it should be revised. I I don't know on our end where the ball was dropped. Uh but as far as uh you know my duties are concerned when it comes to certain ordinances I've been told
directly that this is what I have to respond with. >> No problem. I'm just trying to get an understanding of course moving forward. I don't >> I think officer >> Yes ma'am. I think that we need to bring the chief of police over here because in
conversation that I had or that yeah that we had includ including the president that was no he was told to us so that we going to continue following the direction that we
were doing before we find the way to hide somebody. >> Mhm. >> So, and after that we got either the person working from the fire department or from
the engineering department, from the PPW or whatever. >> So, we going to define the situation. But by the meantime, we're going to continue working and doing, you know, because right now we have how many pages?
>> More. I'm I'm very aware I noticed that and I've been making a lot of phone calls to folks with the handicap stuff. We have to vet them and you know we have to try to be as fair as possible. You know cuz sometimes people say oh well I was denied because I own
the house and I have parking but that doesn't necessarily mean that we're going to say no. You know it's case by case. And on top of my other duties I'm calling um you know the residents and I'll say hey you know somebody's asking for this. why do you need it? You know, who has access to the driveway and
things like that. So, you know, those I have no problem with and I've been directed that yes, that I can give, you know, my attention to. Unfortunately, at at at this time, this is what I've been told, but I can certainly bring this up to my supervisor and and run it up the
chain for sure. Yeah, we has to there is you know something that has to be done because we have iron sitting in here that we inherited this group of cancer inherited from the 2024. >> Oh, I completely understand and and on
the police side also my colleague detective heard he inherited quite a few and then when I came aboard then I inherited what he has. >> Three years right now behind with all of this, >> right? No, I I council I completely understand
and you know this is why we all got to work together and find a solution. I would like to ask this councelor what they would like to do at this time >> because if we going to continue reading in getting to the same outcome >> I
>> I don't think you know >> I couldn't agree with you more counselor it's just >> I appreciate it I don't want to waste your time and you know >> yes >> what we can do is uh take it all as a block and send it up to the engineering department

two signs that says no parking. There's an ordinance only that ordinance uh 103.36010. It's that ordinance for that little spot where they have the two little signs that says no parking. So what we trying to do is to remove the ordinance which has been there for years and now they
have a business there. So eventually looking for in those two spots or one of them to have a 15minute parking. So this is on Hampshire Street. >> Yes. >> On the side of the Arlington Street. >> It's it's the correct address will be 513 Hampshire. >> Okay.
>> But the ordinance because the well that's what the business is but the ordinance cover over 513. So it's like two signs that there's no parking on this side. So it's right on that right side the business. So, what I what I was looking to do is I again remove the ordinance there that's been there like I
did the research and it's been there over 15 years, but now they have like a little convenience store there that they need those parking spot for parking spot. They're allowed to park at least for 15 minutes on that spot. So, if you guys can uh
I mean support me with that would be great. So um I would like to send this uh to the full council with a favor recommendation to remove that ordinance. >> There is a there is a there is a motion to send it to the full council with favor recommendation by councelor de
