Budget
by Frank Gmeindl 10 Mar '15

10 Mar '15

The City's budget for 2015/2016 includes the following for bicycling: $22,500 for the Mon Blvd. Bicycle Climbing Lane $ 5,000 for Shared Lane Markings (Sharrows) and Bicycles May Use Full Lane (R4-11) signs $ 8,200 for training bicycling instructors and delivering bicycling classes (the Allstate grant) We can probably only do something significant with the $5,000 for Sharrows and BMUFL signs if we use it as the City cost share in a grant application. We will need to help the City to find appropriate grants for which to apply and to write the applications. Concerning the Allstate $8,200, we currently have one candidate committed to become an instructor. We need 2 more and then the instructors need to arrange and deliver the courses. WVU CPASS has been open to hosting the courses. Thoughts? Frank D.

Fwd: Morgantown Bicycling Education Sponsorship
by Frank Gmeindl 06 Mar '15

06 Mar '15

Jing & Bill, I just spoke with Debbie Pickford at Allstate. She authorized using $1,000 of the $8,200 that Allstate already gave the City and will contribute an additional $1,000 to fully fund production of the insert. She also provided Allstate's logo to be put in the sponsor space on the insert. Can we get it printed and inserted into the MUB bills as we originally planned April - May? Debbie would like a finished copy of the insert. When can we get it to her?

Two special event permits were requested for cycling events on July 25 and November 14.
