Club,

It is critical that we turn out in force Tuesday, March 15 (5:30 p.m.) to the planning meeting for the Board of County Commissioners.  This is a single issue meeting centering around multi-modal transportation planning.  Several City and County officials, from across political lines, have asked us to attend the meeting.  To my understanding, a majority of the County Commissioners support the general plans for improving connectivity.  We will not accomplish our goals for bicycle facilities without supporting the larger planning process.

If you wish to attend, I would very much appreciate you sending a personal commitment to my email address.  As of now, we have seven attending from our Commuter Group.  You do not have to speak, but it would be better if you did, and we can certainly help you with what to say.  I'll post some talking points before the meeting.

Regards,

James Thompson
Advocacy Director
