Morro Bay Bike Plan Moves Forward
Last week, the Morro Bay Planning Commission unanimously approved the latest draft of the Bike and Pedestrian Plan. Next week, Tuesday February 28th, the plan heads to the City Council for a final vote!
We’ll be there on Tuesday night to show our support for the plan, and hope to see you there too! It’s been a great process for you bicycle & pedestrian supporters in Morro Bay, and we’re almost done in getting the plan approved. We hope to see you there as we ask for final approval from the City Council, it’ll be fun!
When: Tuesday, February 28, 6:00 pm
Where: Veteran’s Memorial Building, 209 Surf St, Morro Bay (map)
A Bike and Pedestrian Plan is essential for a community to be eligible for federal funding for future projects. Not only does the plan provide guidelines for bike and pedestrian projects, but it also opens the door for more diverse funding sources to make them a reality.
Happy Friday!
We’ll see you all at our General Meeting next Wednesday!
…and did we mention that we’re hiring again??
2012 General Meeting
Mark your calendars for our first ever General Meeting. We’ll present our 2011 Annual Report, share the incredible things we accomplished last year, what we have planned for 2012, introduce our new board members, and a few surprises too!
This is a great opportunity to meet other Coalition supporters, bring a friend to introduce them to our wonderful bicycle community, learn what we’ve been up to, and hear updates on what’s ahead.
When: Wednesday February 22, 7:30 – 8:30 pm
Where: SLO Public Library, Community Room, 995 Palm Street, SLO (map)
We hope to see you there, it’s going to be a great venue to share how much we accomplished last year, and the momentum we have going into 2012 to make it even better!
Anyone & everyone is welcome to join us, the more the merrier as we share what the Coalition does to make SLO County even better for bicycles. Find further details and invite others on our Facebook page here.
