Sorry, the message went prematurely. There are two meetings coming up next week that Bikies might find interesting. I sent these to the Dane County Bike Alerts moderator, but thought I should cross-post. In this message are the following:
=> FIRST MEETING ON A NEW DOWNTOWN PLAN => PLATINUM BIKING REPORT AT COMMON COUNCIL FIRST MEETING ON A NEW DOWNTOWN PLAN Who: City of Madison Planning Dept What: First meeting to develop a new downtown plan - see web site listed below for more information. There will be a series of meetings to develop a new downtown plan. This first meeting covers the topics of "Where have we been? Where are we now? Where are we going?" Future meetings will become more specific about what is needed in the new plan. To Do: Attend a meeting or provide comments Date/Time/Place: Wedneday, April 9. 6 PM open house. 7 PM public presentation followed by breakout sessions on various topics Overture Center, Promenade Hall Further information: www.cityofmadison.com/downtownplan Contact: The two city planners below will be the principal planners for this project.

Bill Fruhling, 608-267-8736, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Michael Waidelich, 608-267-8735, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Madison Municipal Building, Suite LL100 215 Martin Luther King, Jr Blvd PO Box 2985 Madison, WI 53701-2985 PLATINUM REPORT AT THE COUNCIL What: Platinum Biking Committee Draft Report up for adoption at the Madison Common Council. This report is designed as a plan for becoming a "platinum" rated Bicycle Friendly Community. The draft report is up for adoption at the Common Council. This is a great opportunity to speak in favor of bike-friendly policies and infrastructure and tell the Council (and public watching on TV) why that is important. We will also need to make sure that the report doesn't sit on a shelf without being implemented, so you can speak in favor of actually doing the things that are in the report. Do: Come speak in support or send a supportive email Date/Time/Place: Tuesday, April 8, 6:30 PM Common Council Chambers, City-County Bldg, 210 Martin Luther King, Jr Blvd, Room 201 Further info: http://www.cityofmadison.com/trafficEngineering/documents/PlatinumFullRevisedReportDec10Rev.pdf Contact: Email addresses and phone contacts for the Common Council and Mayor are available on the city's web site. An email to the entire Council can be sent by using the address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://www.danenet.org/mailman/listinfo/bikies
