18:49:32 From Paul Jones to Everyone: I have chalk.... Andrew Gavin, Moo McMooferson (Jaime), Paul Jones:😂 18:50:03 From Kristina Mesoznik to Everyone: Agree with Mike and also anecdotally speaking there are a lot of cars that use our neighborhood as a cut through for 15-501 traffic… Andrew Gavin:👍 18:50:10 From George Entenman to Everyone: Exactly what I was thinking. There must be artists on the Death Star??? 18:50:20 From Kristina Mesoznik to Everyone: Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from using the neighborhood as a cut through? 18:50:53 From Moo McMooferson (Jaime) to Everyone: Replying to "Exactly what I was thinking. There must be artist...": Well, you didn’t have much for signage and art in the Death Star if I remember the movies correctly 18:51:08 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: trompe l'oeil speed bumps? 18:52:10 From Moo McMooferson (Jaime) to Everyone: Replying to "Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from usi...": Does the budget allow for it to say “this is a private neighborhood, mind your speed or perish”? Or something less friendly 18:52:13 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: can you share traffic data? 18:52:44 From Luke Powers to Everyone: When will construction start 18:52:47 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from usi...": The streets are public so no 18:52:57 From Moo McMooferson (Jaime) to Everyone: Replying to "Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from usi...": I can write it in chalk.... 18:54:37 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from usi...": There you go 18:54:53 From Alexandra Sheaves to Everyone: Many neighbors (and residents of Southern Village though we don't yet have input from them) will want a safe crossing at Oteys to get to the hospital complex safely. Getting down to Manning is not a good solution for getting to campus or UNC hospitals, Manning has tons of cars and no bike lanes. 18:55:18 From George Entenman to Everyone: Replying to "Is there a plan to try to dissuade people from usi...": Our neighborhood association has a salamander images that’s recognizable and unique and artistic 18:55:18 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: 6' path at MC entrance: not enough room for two way cyclists and peds, Are there AASHTO or other standards for that? 18:58:11 From Alexandra Sheaves to Everyone: Thank you re: Oteys. We get that we're not there yet but I hope these changes will increase interest. 18:59:09 From Andrew Gavin to Everyone: With more foot and bike traffic coming from the added connection at Merritts Pasture maybe we’ll have an increased user base that can convince the NCDOT! 18:59:42 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "With more foot and bike traffic coming from the ad...": Yes 19:00:23 From Carri Polick to Everyone: If the DOT makes changes to 501, would the path potentially go back to being along that road as originally planned? Aka do I have any hope of it not being right in front of my house? 19:01:30 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "If the DOT makes changes to 501, would the path po...": No 19:02:01 From Renée Bosman (she/her) to Everyone: I'll be sure to share that out, especially if there is a call for artists 19:02:28 From McAdams to Everyone: send us the salamander! Mike V:❤️ 19:03:01 From Moo McMooferson (Jaime) to Everyone: Option A - It prevents potential accidents from pedestrians/bycicles having to cross intersection preventing cars from turning into the neighborhood. Andrew Gavin, Paul Jones:👍 19:04:59 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: is there a cost estimate for this project? 19:05:40 From janes to Everyone: I might have missed this, but can you clarify the reason for the wall along the greenway? 19:06:04 From Kristina Mesoznik to Everyone: Where are you expecting these walkers to come from (other than our neighborhood)? Botanical gardens? From merritts pasture? Just wanting to make sure we won’t have parking issues in the neighborhood 19:06:26 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "I might have missed this, but can you clarify the ...": The wall is along 15-501 not in the pasture 19:06:29 From Carri Polick to Everyone: Replying to "If the DOT makes changes to 501, would the path po...": Are you the best person to be answering? Do you work with DOT? Or should the presenters answer still? Moo McMooferson (Jaime):👆 19:06:41 From George Entenman to Everyone: Replying to "Where are you expecting these walkers to come from...": We’ll have a lot more when and if they build the bridge across the creek near us. 19:07:17 From Rosann Farber-Petes to Everyone: Some walkers will be going from our neighborhood toward Southern Village - no cars involved. 19:07:40 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Replying to "If the DOT makes changes to 501, would the path po...": In earlier reports the costs and permissions necessary were presented as prohibitive. 19:08:45 From Mike V to Everyone: Will homeowners nearest the wall and /or fence have have input on what the finish looks like? You said there were multiple options 19:10:38 From Andrew Gavin to Everyone: Replying to "Option A - It prevents potential accidents from pe...": I’d like to strenously agree with Option A as well. In Option B the crosswalk being so close to 501 will cause many dangerous situations. Drivers turning into the neighborhood would have a hard time judging if the crosswalk is occupied or will be occupied. And I can imagine lots of situations where vehicles have the choice between sudden breaking and running someone over. 19:11:41 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: where do we find DOT planned improvements mentioned? 19:11:59 From Patrick Mortell to Everyone: to 15-501-54 plans 19:12:19 From Kathy Peticolas to Everyone: Is this project funded? If so, what is the timeframe? Luke Powers:👍 19:12:23 From Renée Bosman (she/her) to Everyone: I have to run, but Marcia, I'll stay in touch! 19:12:55 From Zachary Hallock to Everyone: https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/UtQ4C2kQ0nCV22Mgt2syh5lib_?domain=connect.ncdot.gov 19:14:08 From Paul Jones to Everyone: I have chalk... 19:16:34 From Carri Polick to Everyone: Since you’re proposing that our neighborhood essentially becomes a public park, will there be any tax breaks/incentives for homeowners directly on the path who basically become parks and rec workers by maintaining these spaces? Moo McMooferson (Jaime):🙄 19:18:17 From Kathy Peticolas to Everyone: Thank you for the information! 19:18:29 From Mike V to Everyone: Thanks for all your efforts! 19:18:41 From Moo McMooferson (Jaime) to Everyone: Yeah, thanks for the info sesh! 19:18:58 From Andrew Gavin to Everyone: Thanks for the effort! And I hope we can find ways to organize ourselves to help fight for making the connection through the pasture happen. Mike V:❤️ 19:19:44 From Paul Jones to Everyone: Thanks for your good work on this project. I'm glad that more people, including our neighbors, will have acces to the Pasture 19:20:08 From Andrew Gavin to Everyone: Replying to "Since you’re proposing that our neighborhood essen...": Adding Sharrows on the street does not constitute becoming a public park…
