I'm happy that the council is listening to the will of the people, it sounds like some other commenters are well aware of the citizens push for this.
I do however have to laugh at the irony, two days ago an article describing how intercity transit is spending $14.5 Million on two new busses, but the city has to tax us in order to make better sidewalks.
What I would love to see is a creative approach to lower cost sidewalks. A decade ago Seattle invited input on what kind of sidewalks the people desire. A balance between low cost and effective is the answer. They dont all need to be Cadillac walkways. So... Can we design cheaper sidewalks? or are the concrete guys gonna walk away the big winners here?
