Question

jeff wants to propose a neighborhood crosswalk for greater biker and walker safety to city council. what medium would be best for jeff to use when presenting his idea?

an audio recording of the intersection that reveals how much traffic there is

a proposal letter describing the need, benefits, and costs of a new crosswalk

a folder of aerial photos of downtown with the proposed spot for the crosswalk circled

Explanation:

City councils require structured, comprehensive proposals to evaluate infrastructure requests. A proposal letter systematically outlines the safety need, benefits for bikers/walkers, and cost considerations, which are critical factors for official review. An audio recording only shows traffic volume without context, and aerial photos only mark the location without justifying the request.

Answer:

B. a proposal letter describing the need, benefits, and costs of a new crosswalk
