5. The MH BID and MHPAC (Mission Hills Parking Advisory  Committee) is very enthusiastic to work with SANDAG to improve the W. Washington entrance.  The votes taken to support Walk the Wash were

to maintain or increase parking in the area while encouraging dedicated bike and pedestrian access lanes.

Ideas discussed and receiving overwhelming support is the bike/pedestrian paths to be in front of diagonal parking. I have reported this support to the Uptown Community Parking District Board, as well.

- Thanks, Gerrie Trussell, Executive Director, The Mission Hills BID
