Cedar Falls Community Main Street Re-design - 2017
We, the undersigned, encourage the Cedar Falls City Council to plan and vote in favor of a Main Street (6th to University Ave) reconstruction plan that accommodates bike lanes and enhanced pedestrian accommodations.
Accommodating bike lanes and enhanced pedestrian walkways supports the community's efforts to be a bike-friendly city, compliance with the Cedar Falls Complete Streets policy, while also servicing a significant population of the Cedar Falls Community.
Further, we understand that the proposed bike lanes would be used from 7am - 1pm on Sundays for parking - an accommodation that balances this short periodic need with the establishment of bike lanes.
Biking is a growing segment of the community and holds significant economic value. Remodeling Main Street with a modern design that incorporates an active and healthy lifestyle in a safe manner will increase property values, and greatly improve the appearance and safety of this corridor.
Thank you for your consideration.
