Thank you for asking. The multi use paths, interconnectivity around town are superb. The design of the West End is dismal. The streets are too narrow. The overly wide pedestrian and bike lane combination is harrowing! Pulling out of a business is hazardous. Curb jumping is a must if you want to avoid turning out into the center turn lane. The trees will soon be too large to see anyone approaching on the sidewalk or bike lane. Demand a refund from that consultant!!! And please, please, please don't finish the project all the way to 7th street.

More small businesses and locally owner restaurants rather than chains

Sierra Vista could use an urban lake. Not only could you fish there and bring in money but also give people a place to exercise and get out of the house.

Make businesses accountable for their landscaping. Give them notice and if they fail to comply give them a ticket. The litter in this town is atrocious. Some workout stations at public parks would be much appreciated.

Having spent my high school to early 20's in Sierra Vista, it has gone through many changes. In the 80's and 90's the city park, bowling alley, local arcades were a staple for kids/teenagers to do things. I've noticed there is NOTHING for teenagers to young adults to do in town. The mall is run down, the movie theatre is horrible, and besides sports, nothing for kids to do. Sierra Vista obviously sits on the gateway and endures SEVERE border crime. Public Safety (police) are needed more than ever. Activities for kids/adults/military members to do - reach out to companies such as Dave and Busters or Round 1 (indoor bowling/billiards/video games with dining/bar) would go a long way in small town SV. If Fort Huachuca is closed under BRAC, the town needs to thrive on its own. Better do something now than wait for that to happen.

Those of us who walk our dogs on undeveloped land would like it to remain undeveloped. Cement and asphalt are too hot to walk on. Encouraging bicycle use puts us in danger, as many cyclists are not aware that pedestrians have the right of way, and do not make us aware as they dart around from behind us. Give us trash cans and a few benches and we'll be happy.

I would like Sierra Vista to have the most robust Public Safety presence of any town in Arizona. This might make the recreation and walkable spaces more appealing.
