Club,

The format of the 10 April Transportation Summit will be that invited stakeholders (the club is one) will have seven minutes to speak about the master plan (a bit different from the original announcement).  I plan to use the time to speak on behalf of the club and would like to hear your input on Facebook preferably about Bus Rapid Transit (too expensive and better spent on bike-ped stuff in my opinion--another biomass boondoggle), bike-ped solutions, and a sales tax for roads/transit/etc . . .  

We would like a big showing on April 10th at the Gainesville Senior Center, evening (NOT DAYTIME AS WAS ANNOUNCED), starts at 6pm.  

We'll meet Tuesday Apr 2, as the GCC Advocacy Committee (but you don't need to officially be in that group to come) at 7:00 p.m. for discussion and dinner at La Nopalera near Archer and 34th.  I'm loathe to give another Mexican restaurant a chance in Gainesville, but this is just about the only locally owned non-chain restaurant within two miles of this part of town.  If you are new to advocacy, great chance to have fun and get to know everyone and the issues.
