It also recommends that the City Council approve the related resolution establishing the procedure for program implementation. BACKGROUND The adopted 2010 San Leandro Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan (Master Plan) identified the City -wide Bicycle Rack program as one of the high priority projects that can be potentially implemented in the short term to benefit both bicyclists and pedestrians. The Master Plan included $50,000 of Measure B Bicycle and Pedestrian funds over a five- year period for this program. In April 2011, staff installed standard, inverted U- shaped bicycle racks in front of the Civic Center. Staff will install more in the public right -of -way, especially in the downtown area and major commercial activity centers as requested. City of San Leandro Page 1 Printed on 11/15/2011
