Following last night’s CD 11 Livable Streets Candidate forum, I sat down with each of the four candidates for a brief chat about the forum, the state of the campaign, and what they thought of the debate.

I’m a sucker for stories about people’s kids, especially kids that are close to Sammy’s age. But it wasn’t Bostick’s moving story of taking one of the twins to CicLAvia (with plans to take the other in April) that the crowd remembered, it was his plan to require that between one and five percent of parking spaces in commercial corridors be turned into bike corrals.

In a discussion where the candidates tended to agree with each other, this bold idea stuck out to many in the crowd as one of the best of the night. Whether its politically possible in a city where a plan to add fifteen corrals to the one in existence is cause for celebration, is a story that has yet to be written. There’s more on that in the video above.
