Dear Mayor and Council,
I want to express my support for the Anholm Bikeway plan that includes protected bike lanes. As the city staff
have stated during several previous meetings, protected bike lanes are the most likely to attract more people
to ride their bike.
As a community, we have made it a priority to reduce the number of single occupancy vehicle trips and give
our community the opportunity to make healthier transportation choices. There are a plethora of reasons why
more people biking benefits our community and the environment. For a century our streets were designed
only to accommodate cars, which has led to some serious environmental and health impacts that need to be
addressed sooner rather than later.
I want to help make the shift for the greater good of our community and hope you will make the tough to
decision to rethink the way we utilize our public right of ways.
Sincerely,
Marya Figueroa
