Bicycle Board Members,

At next Wednesday's Traffic Commission meeting, Christiaan Abildso, Pedestrian Safety Board Chariman will propose to the Traffic Commission to change it to the Transportation Commission and to make the Pedestrian representative (Christiaan) and Bicycling representative (me) voting members.  We are currently ex-officio.  Attached are a memorandum that he wrote explaining this and an ordinance that defines the Transportation Commission that should replace the ordinance that defines the Traffic Commission.

We can discuss this at next week's BB meeting if you like.  If I receive no response from BB members about this message or the attachment, we will assume that the BB concurs.
