Hi all, I know this is short notice but if anyone can attend any of these meetings please do. I will go to one of them. We cyclists and pedestrians need to speak up and emphasize what we want for our city, bike routes, safe crossings over intersections, rivers and interstates, sidewalks, bike parking, share the road signs, etc. If anyone wants more information to speak up about let me know. Our community is starting to get noticed but we are still easy to ignore by the powers that be. I found out that developers are routinely getting exemptions to the BikeKC initiative that requires them to put bike lanes on new roads. We need to be there and be more vocal. Thanks.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS ADVISORY COMMITTEE CITYWIDE HEARINGS

The Public Improvements Advisory Committee (PIAC), in cooperation with the Mayor and City Council, will be holding citywide hearings in the north, midtown and south areas. These hearings are being held so that the Committee and Council can hear from citizens about the city's public improvement needs. The PIAC will use information gathered through the hearings to recommend projects for funding to the Council for Year Twenty-Three (Fiscal Year 2006-07) of the one-cent sales tax for public improvements.

In addition to coming to the hearings, citizens also can tell the PIAC about needed public improvements by completing a request form. These forms will be available at the hearings or are available from the Capital Improvements Program.

The hearings are as scheduled:

Friday, August 19, 2005 Tuesday, August 23, 2005
Committee Room Hillcrest Community Center
City Hall, 414 E. 12th St., 10th Fl 10401 Hillcrest Road
