As much as he is a jerk he is right about adhering to CEQA including conducting a Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA).
These are things are part of the process. Sure it's more red tape, but there needs to be checks and balance in place, otherwise all sorts of projects would be approved without the proper mitigation measures needed. Including projects that would be detrimental to bike transportation, of course.
Yes, I am for the Bike Plan. However they need to go through the proper channels.
I work as a transportation planner and see this stuff all the time. Every project has its opponents, and they will challenge it legally if all bases aren't covered.
Maybe the system is not perfect, but it is the one in place for now. So they gotta do what they gotta do.
