2 <br /> City Council Regular Meeting Minutes <br /> January 20, 2022 <br />B. Presentation by the Pathways Committee Seeking City Council Guidance on Pathway <br />Completion Rate <br /> <br />Bob Elson, Chair of the Pathways Committee, presented the commitee’s request <br />for the Council to supply guidance on getting the pathways built. We have 77 miles of <br />paths - areas where people can walk. We have 5 miles of paths that needs some TLC <br />and 36 miles that need to be installed per the Master Path Plan. He asked if the <br />Council wants a completed pathway system and will they authorize the funds. <br /> <br />Council discussion ensued. Council asked questions of Mr. Elson and received his <br />responses. <br /> <br />Public Comment <br /> <br />Robert Sandor, Los Altos Hills, thanked Mr. Elson for his presentation. He is an <br />avid user of the pathway system, and it is a huge asset for the community. He finds <br />the 77 miles totally adequate and is not an advocate of spending a lot of money for <br />new pathways. <br /> <br />Bridget Morgan, Los Altos Hills, said she has been a member of the Pathways <br />Committee since 2015. She pointed out that what might be adequate for Mr. Sandor <br />might not be for someone living in an area with fewer pathways. <br /> <br />DIRECTION: The City Council is in favor of moving ahead with the one-year <br />plan. They are receptive to an accelerated schedule and will discuss this during the <br />City Council Priority Setting Session scheduled for January 25, 2022. <br /> <br />3. PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR <br /> <br />Robert Sandor, Los Altos Hills, congratulated City Manager Pirenjad on being <br />appointed as City Manager and the Council for selecting him.
