Development of that policy was based on the 10 elements that the National Complete Streets Coalition (NCSC*) determined should be part of an “ideal” Complete Streets policy. Moving forward to 2018, the NCSC updated and revised their complete streets policy framework and evaluation criteria to focus on implementation and equity. NCSC states that “the 10 revised policy elements are based on decades of collective expertise in transportation planning and design, created in consultation with NCSC’s steering committee members and a group of national stakeholders consisting of engineers, planners, researchers, and advocates.”

In late 2020 a three-person sub-committee, comprised of staff and Sustainability Advisory Committee members, was formed to review the current policy and draft a revised policy. This draft was then reviewed and finalized with input from the full Sustainability Advisory Committee. Support was also

provided by Trailnet by providing a policy framework that addressed the revised NSCS policy elements. Mayor Harris complimented Matt and his staff on the work they did. Matt Malick, Director of Public Works, explained that the City already had the Complete Streets Policy in place and now they will look at and further define the listed projects. Alderman McAndrew commented that Matt did a great job working with the Sustainability Committee for their input. Matt Malick expressed thanks to Linda Goldstein, Chairman of the Sustainability Committee.
