Ms. Hamilton said there is little in the City for the Council to <br />respond to regarding American Indian issues. She said if Mr. Lopez or others would like <br />to sponsor an American Indian event, Council would support it. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris said that Council approved the easement for the Meadowcreek <br />Parkway at the last meeting which contained expectations from Albemarle County. He <br />said he wanted to give the Board of Supervisors credit for responding with a resolution <br />which addressed the expectations and “reaffirmed its commitment to further significant <br />investments in public transit; to making extensive pedestrian and bicycle improvements <br />within the urban ring; to building a transportation connector between Sunset Avenue and <br />Fontaine Research Park/29-250 Bypass that would divert traffic from Old Lynchburg <br />Road; and to continued development of alignment and funding scenarios for the Eastern <br />Connector. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown agreed this was a good faith effort by the County. <br /> <br /> Mr. O’Connell asked for feedback from Council about the proposed citizen <br />survey. <br /> <br /> The meeting was adjourned. <br /> <br />______________________________ ____________________________ <br />President Clerk <br /> <br />
