    AGENDA ITEM I-4 Public Works STAFF REPORT City Council Meeting Date: 12/4/2018 Staff Report Number: 18-225-CC Informational Item: Update on the citywide Safe Routes to School program Recommendation This is an informational item and does not require City Council action. Policy Issues The development of a Citywide Safe Routes to School program (Program) is included as one of the top-six priority projects in the City Council’s adopted 2018 work plan. The program is also an implementation program included in the 2016 general plan circulation element. Background On February 6, 2018, the City Council adopted its 2018 work plan, including the Citywide Safe Routes to school program and further prioritized it as one of the city’s top-six priority projects. Accordingly, staff reprioritized work efforts and prepared a draft request for proposals for the program. The Safe Routes to School subcommittee of the Complete Streets Commission and advocates from Parents for Safe Routes reviewed the draft request for proposals. Staff incorporated this feedback and released the request for proposals May 2, 2018. Six proposals were received by the May 23, 2018, due date. A team of seven people comprised of City staff and Complete Streets Commission subcommittee members reviewed proposals and recommended Alta Planning + Design to initiate the program. Authorization for entering into an agreement with Alta Planning + Design was approved at the City Council meeting June 19, 2018. A notice to proceed was given in July 2018, and this report serves as an update to the work that has been performed over the last five months.

PUB DATE 2001-10-00 NOTE 53p.; Published annually. Some text on colored paper, figures, and maps may not reproduce well. AVAILABLE FROM For full text: http://www.asu.edu/copp/morrison/apc2001.htm. PUB TYPE Reports Evaluative (142) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Educational Planning; Elementary Secondary Education; Goal Orientation; *Long Range Planning; State Action; *Strategic Planning; Urban Problems IDENTIFIERS *Arizona ABSTRACT This fourth annual publication looks at five trends that threaten Arizona's future:(1) a talent shakeup where well-educated young professional and highly skilled immigrants leave the states;(2) the Latino education dilemma, manifest by the fact that only half of Arizona Latinos obtain a high-school diploma;(3) a fuzzy economic identity characterized by a narrow base of high-tech factories, a low-wage legacy, and a lack of intellectual facilities;(4) lost stewardship in which leadership has become a spectator sport; and (5) a revenue sieve where a narrow tax base hampers the states ability to raise money. In examining these problems, the report focuses on the aging baby-boom population; the declining number, percentage wise, of residents with a bachelor's degree; the lack of leaders; and an unbalanced tax system. The report suggests a number of remedies to these problems: put Arizona's quality of life at the center of economic development efforts; educate the populace, in particular the Latino population, through early childhood education and sustained nurturance through high school and beyond; reward graduates; develop a "thinking" economy; look in new places for leaders; and update the tax systems for the new economy by rebalancing the revenue mix and broadening the tax base.
