The Multi-Modal Path Discussion Group met and approved moving forward with an Individ­ual Project Order (IPO) with Kimley-Horn & Associates (Engineer) to review options for center island markings and side markings on the multi-modal paths. The discussion group consists of representation from Districts 1-10 and the Amenity Authority Committee (AAC).

Seems to me that the money being wasted on consultants could better be spent to stripe the paths. Having driven on the paths that have been striped on Buena Vista in Marion County I conclude that they are safer and more well defined than non striped paths. They promote safety, not excessive speed.

If memory serves me correctly wasn't it KHA's engineer who provided the original, and maybe a second opinion--all consistently against striping and markers generally on our multi-modal paths prior to CD4 striping their paths? If so why would anyone ask and pay the same organization (engineer) for an opinion. Why would their position now be any different?
