Oakdale meeting

Oakdale Neighborhood Association (ONA) met with Dragana, Colin and Andrew. They seem interested in getting us to help with their concerns. They are also interested in improving neighbourhood cut-throughs (lighting, width etc). We like this.

Coquitlam parking review

Colin presented a plan for creating a large network of protected lanes (23 km) in SW Coquitlam by altering current parking regulations.

Andrew pointed out that Clarke Road in Port Moody is an example of this kind of route.

Andrew is interested in presenting something about Clarke Road to PoMo Transportation Committee this year. Andrew would also like to present something about parking minimums in general at the time that PoMo is updating TransPort Moody.

Strategic Transportation Plan: Let's push PoMo, Coquitlam and PoCo to reduce parking minimums in their upcoming revisions to their STPs (due this year or at least soon).

There is widespread support for this kind of thing in Port Moody council, across both more "conservative" and more "liberal" staff.

Any other business

Coquitlam staff are pleased with their Infrastructure Award for Como Creek bridge/ King Albert Greenway.
Coquitlam are looking into options for United. As usual there is only the faintest sliver of hope.
