Hi, at the last meeting it was decided that we (Alice and Jonathan) should email the Bicycle Board about what will be our plan for recommending Bicycle Shelter facilities to the respective principals of MHS and UHS. It should be duly noted that presently we do not have any "approved" recommended Bicycle Shelters. If our proposal below is accepted without any objection, it would be our hope that by the next Bicycle Board meeting, but no later than by the May 1 meeting that the BB could provide us with a list of shelters that have been approved for our purpose of demonstrating appropriate solutions to the principals.
Proposal:
We propose that a meeting will be set up before the end of May with both Principal Desantis from MHS and Principal Forrest from UHS. We want to make the arrangements for this meeting relatively soon because of the busy schedules of both principals. The meetings desired outcome will be the provide both Principals with enough information and details so that they can embark on the Bicycle Board's recommendation that sheltered and secure bicycle facilities be provided at their respective school locations. One approach besides recommending purchasing such facilities will be to suggest that the Schools look at getting Vo-Tech to build all or part of the facilities thereby saving the Schools money as well as engaging students in bicycling. If possible we want to have representation from actual High School students who are bicyclists so that we can present a more convincing message at the meeting (1).
Our request to the Bicycling Board is to approve our proposal and to provide us with relevant literature and information about recommended bicycling shelters. Information can be delivered to Jonathan either via email, snail mail, or any other relevant manner.
(1) Nick Hein told us that he has UHS bicyclists working at Positive Spin.

Sounds good Jonathan,
Might someone have what the original arch. designs or whatever were, for the bike storage facility at MHS. That might come in real handy.
