Subject: District of Columbia Pedestrian Master Plan Public Meeting, 5-3-07

The citywide public meeting for the DC Pedestrian Master Plan will take place on May 3, from 7-8:30 pm at the Columbia Heights Recreational Center at 1480 Girard St. NW. I'm checking, but I believe parking is tight, public transport is suggested. Use the Columbia Heights Metro.

The citywide public meeting for the District of Columbia Pedestrian Master Plan will introduce the public to the plan, its purpose and scope. Participants will learn about the public participation strategies being used throughout the planning process and will hear the results of the citywide online survey. Participants will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the priority corridors in the District that are being proposed for more detailed analysis to improve pedestrian safety and access. The agenda for the public meeting will include topics such as:

Citywide pedestrian issues and initiatives
Purpose and goals of the Pedestrian Master Plan, project scope (policy and facility improvements)
Public involvement strategies
Results of the citywide online survey
Purpose of and methodology used to identify Priority Pedestrian Areas for detailed analysis
Map review and comment on priority corridor selection
