WalkBike! Memphis Meeting Monday Night

It's time for another Walk Bike! Memphis meeting. Here are the details from Sarah:

Hello WalkBike Advocates!

Please plan on meeting Monday December 7 at 5:30 at Otherlands Café on Cooper for our next Walk Bike Memphis meeting!

Our Agenda will look like this:

5:30pm
5 min - Introductions - Sarah
20 min - Who are we? – Clarifying our mission – Outreach Committee
20 min – committee breakout sessions
15 min – regroup, City Bike Design Guide
6:30pm
Socialize! Brainstorm!

On another note:

The draft of the “City of Memphis Bicycle Design Guide ” is up for review until Dec 30 of this year. It is critical that we give our input as this is the document that will be used to guide our future bike facilities Please take a look and let our engineering department know what you think – good and not-so-good.

Here is a link to the invitation to review:

Also, I think that WalkBike Memphis should complete its own review of the draft (addition to your personal opinions.) This is a prefect first task for the policy committee with a few additional parties who are specifically interested in the guide review. We will talk about this at the end of our meeting to please have a look!

Additionally, attached is the most complete version of the notes from last month. Have a look.

Thanks so much! See you Monday December 7
