I'm sorry to say I have a conflict this Thursday.  I have a search committee obligation for a new faculty candidate and feel I better give that priority.  I look forward to working with Derek, Traci and Emily this month on the Bikeshare letter if the board feels we are in a position to move forward with this.  Hopefully you all will also discuss bringing this program to the attention of folks interested in improving M'towns walkability as that also seems to be an opportunity ripe for the picking.
Cheers,
Butch

Subject: [Bikeboard] Agenda for this Thursday's meeting

Bicycle Board Members,

Betsy has resigned from the BB.  Traci has agreed to takeover as Secretary.  Best wishes to Betsy in balancing her many ongoing and recently started endeavors.  Thanks to Traci for consenting to expand her role to include BB Secretary.

Please find attached a suggested agenda for this week's Thursday (10/4) BB meeting.  Last month, we had an informal meeting at which those in attendance listed what they want to do in the next 12 months to accomplish the BB's mission and then other participants signed up to help them accomplish their objectives (see minutes).  Since we didn't have a quorum last month's we'll continue to do that exercise.  So... please come prepared to say what you want to do in the next 12 months to accomplish the BB's mission.  (See procedural guidelines at http://bikemorgantown.com/Docs/2011.07.12_Bicycle_Board_Procedural_Guidelines.pdf )  I'll bring the flip charts that we recorded last month and we can add to them.  

If you want to add anything to the agenda, please reply-to-all with your topic, the desired outcome of addressing it and the amount of time you'll need.

Following are some things that will need to be done in the next 12 months.
  1. Conduct annual Bicycle Plan progress review (I'm meeting w/Terrence, Terry Hough, Jeff Mkorski & Damien Oct. 17)
  2. Get money to implement the Greater Morgantown Bicycle Plan
  3. Review current placement of 2 Bicycle Friendly Community road signs and arrange installation of the remaining 10 signs
  4. Replace 2 departed League Cycling Instructors
  5. Fill BB membership vacancies
  6. Continue to improve the bike route (http://bikemorgantown.com/route_map.php)
  7. Establish bicycling education program and bicycle club at Suncrest Middle School
The meeting will start promptly at 6:30 pm.  If we do not have a quorum at 6:30 pm, I will cancel the meeting.  If you will not be there at 6:30 pm, please reply ASAP so I can inform the Board in advance if we're not going to have a quorum.
