I think some may be confusing the two. Rebuild ... is what the people whose homes or businesses destroyed by the storms do. Their private property was damaged or destroyed, so they hire a contractor and rebuild. At a glance it looks like maybe 50% or much more of the ideas presented on this web site have NOTHING to do with these private property owners 'rebuilding'. What many of them are suggesting have more to do with what the CITY could do with ITS' property at some point in the future. Like adding a bike or pedestrian lane here or there. Good ideas for the next time a road is constructed or one is ready to widen or when its going to be dug up anyway to install new storm drains. Take that opportunity to add the bike lane. A good idea. Lets make a list of those so they will be ready at that time. But again ... has nothing to do with the current need to 'rebuild' homes and businesses. The roads are all still there. They don't need rebuilding. Lets just add the homes and small business locations back in.
