Bike friendly survey
The city submitted an application to the League of American Bicyclists earlier this month to improve upon its “Bicycle Friendly Community” designation from bronze to silver.
The city has issued a public survey, in accordance with league request, to provide local context and perspective for the review team’s decision-making process, and it is used in combination with the online application submitted by the community.
Open through Sept. 23, the survey is available at www.surveymonkey.com/r/app_BFC_FA18.
