Subject: Re: [TheThinkTank] City Bike Plans: Do Collectives Connect Community Voices to Planning?
La county bike coalition invites to co ops for city hearings on the bike plan here have been successful. Some mechanics, some community members have come out to comment/came out to comment at the most recent round of bike plan implementation hearings. Sending out the proposals to co ops is helpful too-- so they can speak for where they ride.

Dear all,
Some Alta Planning + Design consultants who are assisting the City of Columbus, OH on their bike plan update asked me for advice about their communication campaign, such as best practices for outreach. I brought up bike co-ops and told them about Bike! Bike! being held in Columbus this year. I'm wondering what role collectives organizers/volunteers can play or have played as connectors, getting community voices heard that wouldn't otherwise make it to the city level. Or do bike plans seem totally disconnected from co-op concerns?
If there's interest in having some kind of community conversation about what role co-ops can play in connecting more people to bike planning, let me know and I'll put you in touch with the Alta folks. They're also reaching out directly to Third Hand in Columbus.
Thanks!
Adonia
