Commission moved on without formalizing the motion. Topic added to New Business on current agenda.

Commissioners approve minutes as amended.
All ayes. Minutes approved.
PUBLIC FORUM
None.
ACCIDENT REPORT: Officer MacLennan presents crash report as written in agenda packet, he comments that
December has been a fairly quiet month for accidents. Vièville asks about the house on Faith street, and if it’s safe to
go into the area of the house MacLennan mentioned in previous Commission meeting. MacLennan states there has
been less activity recently, but that it’s a good idea to remain in lit areas while traveling through on foot.
Brouillard asks clarifying questions regarding the traffic statistics provided. MacLennan discusses the possible
correlation between a lower DUI rate and the bars being closed due to COVID-19 restrictions.

These minutes are pending approval by this Commission
B. Transportation Commission Council Presentation Outline- Peterson Adams wrote up an outline and asks
Commission if they had any special requests that are currently not on the list. No Comment from
Commission. Fleury states that after he wrote the memo contained in the packet he thought of additional
discussion points for future topics. The first, regarding current regulations revolving the around the 1992
resolution for traffic control devices their requirements for installation and the City’s application thereof. Fleury
recalls support for Commission to review the resolution and the possibility of making changes that will bring it
up to date. The second, regarding the Commission taking another look at a residential parking permit
program.
Graf mention the parking change on A Street, and the installation of crosswalks on North Main, which has
been on going. Brouillard brings up parking in the railroad district and B Street parking and if the topic will be
on the presentation, Commission discusses. Peterson Adams will present projects as Biennium project rather
than in just the next year when giving presentation to Council.
Old Business-
A. “20 is Plenty” update- Brouillard presents information contained in the report found in agenda packet. He
reiterates that while “20 is Plenty” project does reach other Commission goals, in his opinion, the safety
aspect is the most important, leading to more modal equity, he states he supports “20 is Plenty” in
residential areas. He states Commission can recommend City Staff look in to researching more information.
Commission discusses contacts made, and the opinions stated from various contacts. Commission
discusses signage and precedents set by cities like Portland regarding 20mph residential areas. Brouillard
asks Officer MacLennan what the speed limits are in residential areas that are not marked with signage.
MacLennan states that it is set by the state at 25mph. He states that if the speed limit changes to 20mph in
town, signs would need to be posted everywhere to retrain drivers. Commission discusses where signs
could be posted and how education could be accomplished. Graf expresses his concerns that this project
will not help with most of the Commission’s goals, and how it should be marketed. Borgerson expresses his
support for lower speeds as it would lower issues and help with the traffic calming program but finds some
issue with the carbon reduction argument. Commission discusses data and statistical analysis of data.
Commission discusses what should be presented and what should be omitted from the argument for “20 is
Plenty”. Hyatt interjects the idea that perhaps this program starts at the schools and works outward from
those areas, due to the higher volume of bicycles and foot traffic around schools. Peterson Adams asks
Fleury of the possibility of grant money for this project through the Safe Routes to School project.
Danner clarifies if it is possible to select residential streets at a street by street bases rather than just all of
them, or to exempt certain streets. Brouillard clarifies that those are indeed options, and it could tie into the
Traffic Calming program for qualifying streets. Commission discusses outreach options.
Borgerson motions to recommend to City Council to all Staff and the Transportation Commission to
review lowering speed limits per ORS 810.180 within the City with safety as the primary
consideration. Vielle Seconds.
All ayes, Motion Carries.
Discussion: Vivelle is concerned that the original motion might be too nebulous Fleury agrees to an extent
and recommends the addition of “with participation from the Transportation Commission” to the motion.
Discussion leads to motion change. Additional discussion leading to second motion: Brouillard wonders if
there should be an addition to the motion that recommends that Council ask local Southern Oregon
legislators that Transportation Commission be included in HB4103 when/if it is reintroduced. Commission
decides it doesn’t hurt to ask.

expresses support the inclusion of the PCI. Commission discusses road maintenance and upcoming

Memo
Date:
February 17, 2021
From: Scott A. Fleury
To: Transportation Commission
RE: Bike Corral Encroachment
BACKGROUND:
Before the Commission is an encroachment permit to install a bike corral parking system in an
existing 15-minute space adjacent to the former Sesame restaurant. The owners of the restaurant
are changing operations and requesting an encroachment for bike parking.
Previously the Transportation Commission vetted a request by Standing Stone Brewery to install
a bike corral system adjacent to the restaurant on Oak Street. Public Works is following the same
process used in 2009 and requesting the Commission discuss and recommend a course of action.
The final design and layout of the bike corral system is still to be determined by applicant.
Figure 1: Proposed Location
G:\pub-wrks\eng\dept-admin\TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION\Packets\2021 Packets\5. Bike Corral Encroachment-Winburn.doc
Figure 2: Alternate Location
Figure 3: Accidents
The proposed area shows a couple accidents dating back to 1998 with three being rear end
crashes and one being a fixed object crash.
G:\pub-wrks\eng\dept-admin\TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION\Packets\2021 Packets\5. Bike Corral Encroachment-Winburn.doc
Figure 4: Standing Stone Bike Corral
The building owner has provided verbal support for installation of a bike corral system, but
would prefer the corral be installed on the Lithia Park side of Winburn Way adjacent to the
restaurant location, while the business owners would prefer it to be located in the 15-minute spot.
Access to the north side of Winburn Way sidewalk would be through the existing crosswalk for a
corral system installed on either side of the roadway.
CONCLUSION:
Action required by Commission; provide a recommendation to the Public Works Director on
acceptance or denial of the requested action including potential conditions of approval.
Public Works and Administration support the installation of a bike corral system adjacent to the
location at 21 Winburn Way in an existing 15-minute parking space.
During the beginning portion of the previous “Revitalize Downtown Ashland” planning effort
resident engagement cited a lack of bike parking downtown overall so the addition of bicycle
parking would provide an overall public benefit outside the specific business scope.

Memo
Date:
February 11, 2021
From: Scott A. Fleury
To: Transportation Commission
RE: Capital Improvement Program-Roadway, Bicycle and Pedestrian Networks
BACKGROUND:
As per discussion at previous Commission meetings, staff has updated the “draft” version of the
six-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) document, and it is attached for reference along
with the fiscally constrained TSP project list.
At the January meeting the Commission endorsed the use of a Pavement Condition Index (PCI)
performance metric to be proposed on the 2021-2023 Budget. The Commission also discussed
changes to the bicycle and pedestrian sections of the CIP and was interested in adding monetary
resources towards the 20 is Plenty Program.
Staff has placed $25k/year in the roadway section of the CIP for the 20 Is Plenty Program. The
money requested for the program could also potentially facilitate other bicycle boulevard
conversions outside of the projects developed within the 2/6 year CIP recommendations.
Bicycle Network:
Primary discussion for the bicycle network including pushing out bicycle projects for Main
Street and Lithia Way until after completion of the Transportation System Plan update and
finalizing a downtown plan. Staff has moved those two projects out to fiscal year 2026 as shown
in figure 1, highlighted yellow. The net estimated project costs for these two bicycle
improvements is $217,120.
Staff has reviewed the bicycle network projects within the fiscally constrained plan and
recommends replacing the N. Main Street and Lithia Way projects proposed for FY22/23 with
the Laurel Street Bicycle Boulevard ($54,280-FY27) and B Street Bicycle Boulevard ($108,560-
FY31). The Commission has been previously apprised of resident concerns regarding speeds on
Laurel Street between Orange Avenue and Nevada Streets and the Traffic Impact Analysis for
the proposed development at the ends of Randy Street and Otis Street confirm higher than
anticipated speeds specifically in the school zone area. The B Street project could be coupled
with changes to residential parking and the proposed Eighth Street Bicycle Boulevard project
scheduled for FY23
Pedestrian Network:
Additional discussion involved sidewalk installation priorities based on high priority projects in
the fiscally constrained portion of the TSP. Staff discussed coordinating the Walker Avenue
sidewalk project with the Walker Avenue bicycle boulevard project in the current biennium, but
the Commission wanted more time to review the fiscally constrained pedestrian projects in
G:\pub-wrks\eng\dept-admin\TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION\2021 Staff Memos\February 18, 2021\Packet\6. Capital Improvement Program (February Biennium Review_Recommendation).doc
conjunction with the map (figure 7-1) before making a final recommendation. The Commission
was interested in the potential to fill in gaps in the neighborhood around Iowa Street (Lincoln,
Garfield, Avery, Bridge and Wightman). The Wightman sidewalk project should be combined
with the street overlay project scheduled for after 2030.
Figure 1: Iowa Street Area Sidewalk Infill Projects
P23: Wightman Avenue - coordinate with overlay (after FY30)
P25: Walker Avenue - coordinate with overlay (FY27)
P59: Garfield Street – currently programmed for FY25/26 no overlay scheduled
P60: Lincoln – currently programmed for FY35 ($663,750)
P61: California – currently programmed for FY37 ($737,500)
Other considerations for sidewalk could include Park Street and Faith Avenue
P65: Faith Avenue – currenty programmed for FY38 ($516,250)
P70: Park Street – currently programmed for FY30 ($958,750)
