The pictorial drawing shows a bike path next to the east side of Lake Street and Lake Washington Boulevard. Bikers use both the west side of the street going south and the east side going north. If you want to include safe biking along with pedestrian safety not to mention traffic safety, then widen the boulevard However, you probably can’t afford it politically and economically. It would be better is you stopped traffic jams. There’s ways to do it without busting the budget or is that what you want in 2035?

How many off-street parking spots are being provided to prevent parking on the street? The city has been notoriously flagrant in providing adequate sight distance as currently adopted by the city. More no parking red paint on the curb is needed along with updating off street parking requirements in this day and age.

An accelerate and decelerate lane should be provided at the site access point on the boulevard. Evidently the property owners along 10th Avenue South have successfully prevented the once proposed access from the site to 10th Avenue South. Was that wise? I’m sure the anticipated residents would appreciate better access along with avoiding more traffic by forcing them to enter and exit to merge with an already congested street with traffic jams. Is that what is being forced on citizens creating a reduced quality of life in Kirkland? Again, is that what you want in 2035?
