SANTA ANA VISION ZERO PLAN COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY 69 Project Fact sheet Public outreach materials for the workshops included fact sheets, fly- ers, and postcards. These materials were printed and shared online in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese. These materials were distribut- ed prior to and during community events to encourage participation and invite people to share their thoughts. These fact sheets were also shared at laundromats, food banks, and local coffee shops to broaden reach to residents. Project Webpage A project webpage hosted on the City’s website was updated period- ically throughout the project to include information about the project and share opportunities for residents to give feedback. The web page shares resources about the Vision Zero network, the US Department of Transportation’s Traffic Safety Approach, and details about the City’s traffic safety information including traffic counts and downloadable ver- sions of previous planning documents such as the Safe Mobility Santa Ana Plan and the Central Santa Ana Complete Streets Plan. The web- page also included all outreach materials such as the community sur- vey, flyer, and educational video prepared in both English and Spanish. Community Survey The survey questions were designed to develop a general under- standing of the community’s current and future state of mind regard- ing active transportation. A total of five questions were asked, one of which included the option to provide additional comments related to the question. Most questions allowed respondents to select more than one category, resulting in totals that exceeded 100 percent. With nearly 550 responses, the following results provided helpful insight to impor- tant issues that can be used to guide the prioritization process. Question responses in English and Spanish were combined and shown as combined charts on the following pages. Question 1: When you think about transportation changes or improvements, what should be our top considerations in selecting the projects we design? For question #1, the most frequent request was to reduce vehicle speeds, followed by improving traffic flow, then a set of third most fre- quent requests including making it easier to cross streets, public edu- cation on safety, then reducing collisions. Question 2: What street improvements would you like to see more of in Santa Ana? The most frequent request was to increase or improve street lighting, followed by improving safety with more signals and signage. A set of third most frequent requests include ensuring all sidewalks include curb ramps at intersections, adding multi-purpose trails, and adding sidewalks. City Council 32 – 74 6/4/2024
