As the official liaison between the Sustainability Commission and GEARs, I wanted to let you know that the Sustainability Commission will be discussing the draft Ped/Bike Master Plan at its meeting this Wednesday, Dec. 21.  The meeting is:

There’s an opportunity for public comment at the beginning of the meeting.  The Ped/Bike Plan is on the agenda for 7 p.m.

While the Commission is generally supportive of bicycling and walking, it wouldn’t hurt to have supporters of bicycling tell them that we’re counting on the Sustainability Commission to push the City Council for a strong commitment to bicycling. We’d also welcome any specific comments or recommendations you have about the Ped/Bike Plan.  You’ll find the Plan athttp://www.centrallanertsp.org/EugeneTSP/PedBikePlan/Home

In addition, any time you have any issues, concerns or questions you’d like to bring to the Sustainability Commission, please don’t hesitate to tell me, and I’ll try to make it happen.  That’s the whole point of our having liaison relationships with various groups involved in Eugene’s efforts toward sustainability.

Thanks–and I’d love to see you at Wednesday’s meeting!
