Good news, I received the notice and was able to view the zipped files. Thanks, Frank and Jonathan.

Comment: I still think it is easier to read plain-text messages than to process documents for a printer. Or, just read documents on a web page, formatted for screen reading.

Bike Board Members,
The attached zip folder contains the agenda and read-aheads for our meeting next Thursday 9/6. This meeting will focus on the Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) award application and a review of the 8 goals that we defined back in December: Infrastructure, Education, Bike Commuting, Public Relations, Bicycle Friendly Community Award, Law, Maps and Bike Parking and the 84 ideas we had for achieving those goals. The BFC application provides a baseline in the areas of Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, and Evaluation & Planning that map somewhat to our goals. Submitting the application will also bring the City objective feedback and recommendations from the League of American Bicyclists.
By Wednesday, we will have formally provided the Traffic Commission recommendations for Infrastructure, Education and now, the BFC award. Looking at some of our 84 ideas (they're in the attached zip folder in a Word document labeled BikeBoardGoals) we've also made progress on some of them in addition to those that we formally presented to the Traffic Commission. For example, engaging Board of Education in efforts to increase bicycle transit, bike racks at schools, non-motorized parade, and bike racks in parking garages. In our 84 ideas, several relate to WVU. At our meeting this Thursday, Jonathan is also going to take the initiative to get us moving on them.
We've learned a lot in the past year. At this Thursday's meeting, I'd like our new members to get up to speed with the rest of us and for all of us to renew our energy and decide where to go from here.
See you Thursday!
Frank
