Hi James, 

Thanks for the heads up! 
FYI, on the same day the MTPO is holding their 1st public workshop on the 2040 Long-Range Transportation Plan update http://livablecommunity2040.com/
Representatives from GCC, GCAT, others interested in transportation issues might want to attend this workshop too. Please pass this along in case any of your contacts and members may have missed it. The MTPO is also asking for input on the draft community survey in the long-range plan by this Friday - - see email below and attachment. 

Thanks!

All,

The attached document is a draft questionnaire that the Metropolitan Transportation Planning Organization will use in its upcoming update to the Long Range Transportation Plan. The purpose of the questionnaire is to gauge the preferences of people who attend workshops or the MTPO website during the LRTP update.

At its last meeting, the MTPO voted to solicit broader input on the contents of the questionnaire. Take the time to read the draft and--if you would like to see any changes--forward them to me before February 21.

In particular, I would love to hear your ideas about what additional questions should be asked.

I will compile the responses I receive and share them with MTPO staff.

Feel free to share this email with your networks!


Thomas

Riders,

Riders,

Join your brothers and sisters from the bike-ped, recreational, and active transportation communities on Monday, February 24th at 6:30 p.m. downtown for the first ever bike-ped Candidate Forum for the Gainesville City Commission elections.  

Gainesville Citizens for Active Transportation has joined with the Gainesville Cycling Club to vet candidates on transit issues.  We will convene at the Santa Fe College's downtown CIED building, whose front door faces University Avenue.  


Seven of ten candidates have confirmed for the event, and the media will be present.

Special thanks to GCAT President Chris Furlow for organizing this event eleventh hour inside of the busiest campaign season calendar ever.

Regards,

James Thompson
