City funds for a l1n1£ora aad 515 of Citv fuDds for a c..-øaora-
tlve marker as a contrlbution towa1."d the Bicentennial celebra-
ticm. Mr. Maao noted that other clt1es are assbting in the
funding of tbeir celebrations.
Mr. Adallo introduced Hrs. Doris Beasley, who is heading the
ec-ftt... for Markers. She said they are going to try to have
the sSlle design for the aarkers throüahout the County. She said
the best price they could aet was $235 for the first marker and
$70 for each succeedlna one. It would cost $325 to have the
aarker coapressed in a boulder, or free to have it set in concret
_ 3 feet high. She displayed an _ple of how it is antici-
pated the marker will look.

VaUco Park TraffSc Re4uctioD Study - D1."aft Final Report by
l>eLeuw Catber aDd Caapauy, dated Septeaber 1975.
Principal transportation Planner William H. Dietrich, of De Leuw,
Cather a:>d Company, l20 Hovard Stre-:c, San Francisco, Ca. 94105,
with visual aids, sua.arized the .raffic Reduction Study. He said
it is geared very closely to ~ne government policy on traffic
reduction.
.
Hr. Dietrich noted that 50% of the employee trips come less than
5 miles. ë~ demonstrated the need for the Tantau Overcrossing.
He said SJ: ~f the shopping trips cOllIe less than 5 miles.
His con~:~si~ns were that in order to achieve the goal, additional
funding is required. Further, there is the need for more attractive
alterr~ti.es to the automobile. such as pooling, operational bus
iaprove=e~ts, bicycling and incentives. Reduction in traffic, to
be really effective, must be a regional effort.
Hr. Dietrich said the aoals set for this traffic reduction study
were ambitious. Tt'81 represent a long-tern' tsrget, and he sees
signiflcaLt opportunity in the future.
It was :>cteJ the bicycle paths in Vallco Park are geared to avoid
Wolfe R0ad. Prefe1."ential parkina for car pooling has been suggested.
There was sOllIe discussion on the proposal for exclusive bus and
car pool lanes on the fre~~ys, etc. Counc. Frolich did not see this
as a viable incentive.
Counc. S~llis asked if enough people employed in Vallco Park live
close en""gh to war1."ant bicycling. Hr. Dietrich said 50% live
within 5 aHes and 14% live within 2 miles. He said employee
attitudes were positlve, but they see bicycling .as seasonal. Safety
of the !>i:ycles has also becoae a problem. Counc. Nellis said
iJapleaentation of bllte lockers have been successful at De AD&S
College and at lCa1su Hospital in Santa Clara. She asked how much of
a factor it would be for a place for the bike rider to change clothes
aod fresben up. Hr. Dietrich said this would be insianificant.

CouDC. Meyers said he has lCD« been an advoc?te of the regional

bears up :s=y of his feelings. For instance. the $5 per month
parking fee is a very viable cootrol. Increase in fuel cost..
