On tomorrow's City of Fresno Planning Commission agenda, there is an item for a proposed Focused Infill (FI) Overlay District in Fresno's mixed-use corridors.

This is to "facilitate more intensive development."..."along transportation corridors in order to ... "

...support transit use, housing production, and economic revitalization."😊

Wherever the FI Overlay District goes, there will be an increase in dwelling unit/acre.

The city of Napa has a quick explainer on how this is used:
cityofnapa.org/DocumentCenter…

Based on Napa's document, the city of Fresno's proposed district would take a mixed-use district ( along Blackstone? Shaw?) from "medium density" to "high density."

NMX, CMS, and CR:
16 du/ac ➡️ 48
CMX:
30 du/ac ➡️ 90
RMX:
45 du/ac ➡️ 135

To me, this is more people are able to live where they could walk/bike/ride @FresnoFAX to work, eat, etc.

This district may go somewhere between Shields and HWY 180. A corridor that @BetterBlckstone has encouraged Fresno to reimagine for years now.

I apologize for not posting the agenda link for and for not live-tweeting tonight's BPAC meeting.

I was prepping for the vision zero presentation tonight and I forgot to do so. As for the live-tweeting, I needed to focus on what was happening for once.
Since the meetings aren't being posted directly to Youtube and it won't be on @CMACTV's site until it airs live again in a few days. I'm going to provide a summary of what happened until then. (1/?)
I presented the Vision Zero Task Force's draft presentation that will appear before the city council at a future date.

Meeting began with @PhilArballo adding an unscheduled moment of silence for Angel Hernandez and other pedestrians killed this month: fresnobee.com/news/local/cri…
A representative from HSR wanted a letter of support for a grant to fund improvements for the area surrounding the future HSR station, he wasn't on the agenda so BPAC couldn't vote before the July 12th deadline.

Next item: Midtown Trail update😁

Segment 2 (shields between Fresno and First street) is set to be awarded for construction for June.

Segment 5() out for bid and hoping to award in June.

Both Segments will be under construction this year!
Segments 3/4 scheduled for fall 2021 award construction this winter.

Segment 1 is currently going through a geometric approval process to eliminate a through lane to provide space for the trail. Construction anticipated Spring 2022.
Gene Richards: Segment 5 is where the planes go over, they aren't going to have any trees?

Jason Miller: There will be landscaping, but it won't be very tall and is required to not attract wildlife by FAA.

Gene Richards: "Why is is so hard for public works to share the plans...
