NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Joint Sustainability Committee recommends that the City Council pursue a 2016 mobility bond that achieves the following:
1. Fully funds the Bicycle Master Plan, including “Tier 1” Urban Trails; and
2. Fully funds all “very high” and “high” priority sidewalks in the forthcoming 2016 Sidewalk Master Plan; and
3. Approves a comprehensive citywide system concept for light rail; and
4. Provides funding for a minimum operable segment of light rail; and
5. Funds strategic bike, pedestrian, and mass transit components of the Corridor Plans; and
6. Ensures equitable distribution of mobility benefits and burdens from bond proceeds.

Do these people even do math?
Did they total it up, and figure out what the tax increase is necessary to pay for everything they're asking for?
Or did they simply ask for everything and a pony as well?
