Should the Shore Drive Safety Task Force from 2006 be officially restarted?

In December of 2005, after 5 pedestrians were tragically killed - the City Council voted yes on creating the Shore Drive Safety Task Force:
The mission of the Task Force was to evaluate the Shore Drive Corridor and make recommendations to improve the safety of both drivers and pedestrians. The Task Force was comprised of staff members from Planning, Police, Public Works, and Parks and Recreation as well as citizen members from the Shore Drive Advisory Committee (the “SDAC”) and the Shore Drive Community Coalition (the “SDCC”). The Task Force leader was Mr. Charlie Meyer, Chief Operating Officer. Council Member Jim Wood also participated in the Task Force.
You may remember on May 4th, WVEC.com had coverage that the city implemented 90 percent of recommendations from a 2006 Shore Drive task force[.]

This is the Official Shore Drive Safety Task Force Recommendations adopted by City Council in 2006.

We believe there should be an Official Shore Drive Safety Task Force 2010 with a similar structure that obviously includes getting feedback from residents and people who share Shore Drive.
