  1. The area outside Mulberry Street / Fullerton Brew looks shoddy. The city either needs to commit to making it an outdoor dining area or switch it back. The current configuration is not conducive to bike traffic and is an eyesore.

    • The Walk on Wilshire is in the process of being beautified. If you’ve been there in the past few weeks, you’ll have seen nice green paint and other steps toward this process. The city is working hard to make this happen.

  2. Mr. Wilson – I so agree that area has deteriorated – making the restaurants pay for outdoor space was a mistake. Outdoor space is a common good and drew a lot of people to the downtown area. There should be permanent tables and chairs available for any of downtown’s restaurant and cafe customers to share. Only charge the ones that want an exclusive space. The ugly barriers can be replaced by potted trees. And give bike riders a walking path for that block plus the bike rack so even they can stop for a moment and enjoy. Amy – happy to hear the city is doing something about it finally.

  3. The other interesting thing about the 2012 report was to see that a bike and pedestrian path at the UP Trail that would connect UP Park and Independence Park (but was just shot down by council majority with its decision to send the $1.78 million grant back) was in place so long ago.

  4. So if the UP trail was already proposed as part of the Bicycle Master Plan, why wasn’t that used to address the “need a wider plan” argument from the council majority that killed the trail. Seems like Fullerton already made a wider plan.

    We have these commissions making plans, they get adopted and then we turn away grant money to allow us to do it? Doesn’t make sense. I can handle making progress here and there over a long term plan. You take what you can get when you can get it. But this seems more like a lot of planning just to let back room politics override it on a whim.
