July 29, 2024 The Active Transportation Advisory Committee (ATAC) has reviewed the 2400 Grant St. project received on July 12, 2024. Please see our committee’s comment below. A pedestrian/bike path or a multi use pathway should be provided on the private road connecting the subdivision to Mora Avenue from the new road to Grant Street, connecting the existing pedestrian network on Grant Street. The private road is not in line with the city's General Plan Circulation and Transportation elements. Below are a few excerpts from our city’s General Plan we would like to cite along with our comment that we feel should be considered when allowing a private gated road. They can be found on section Cir-1, Cir-2 and Cir-11. “Instead of only planning for ways to expand motor vehicle capacity, circulation planning recognizes the need to also provide a network that is safe and inviting for cyclists and pedestrians. This is particularly relevant in Calistoga, where the city’s small size and existing pedestrian-friendly environment already encourage non-motorized transportation. Consequently, the Circulation Element includes background information, goals, objectives, policies and actions related to all transportation modes, with special attention given to bicycles and pedestrians.” Page 6 of 7 Item #7.1.

Money Lane Extension “If needed in the future to accommodate development on the west side of the city, Money Lane will be extended to Greenwood Avenue to create a new connection with Lake Street and central Calistoga. Although the extension is not considered necessary at this time, this Element contains a policy to prevent development on intervening parcels that might preclude it. The City should prepare an Official Plan Line for this road segment. This provides the greatest constructive notice to the property owners that there is an expectation of dedication at the time of development and a set aside is required.” Sincerely, Melinda Mendoza, ATAC Chair
