    I understand and support the change in City code as to how vehicles that you wish to exclude from certain streets will be defined . However I suggest that after this step there is a very important process that needs to take place . The network needs to be evaluated according to the Complete Street Policy adopted in 2016 ,the Comprenehensive Plan .functional l classification of roads and streets and the 2021 Vision Zero policies . It is surprising that the Executive Summary does not even mention these guiding principles on which the Mayor and Aldermen have spent many workshop hours discussing and finally adopting .
    Abstract concepts in those several policiy documents can be expreesed in visual form - typically in maps or diagrams . I suggest a network map be prepared depictiong those road streets with restictions to enable you and the publiuic to see the practical effect they have ,
    Thanmk you
