SUBJECT: Next Meeting, and assorted information

 

An agenda is attached for your next meeting, which will be Wednesday, March 19th, 6-8 pm, at the Lee County Administration Building, 2115 Second Street, First Floor meeting room.

 

This meeting is devoted to issues that you have requested.  First, will be an update on Transit provided by Carmen Monroy. There will then be a follow up on “Complete Streets” (county code sections on “on street” parking provided as an addendum), and summary on bicycle pedestrian support provided by Dr Banyan.  Third will be draft language regarding the large house/small lot question, framing the issue with some responses.  Fourth, will be a briefing on rural lands (short white paper provided as an addendum).

 

There will be the usual progress report on activities that the Smart Growth Committee sponsored or otherwise initiated.  I attaché the public information suite working paper under review for your information and review.

 

As some of you may have read, the Bicycle Pedestrian program at the County Health Department is slated for termination.  Dan Moser is and has been a valuable and enthusiastic supporter of the Smart Growth program.  Depending upon the information at the time of the meeting, there may be some impromptu tribute in recognition of his efforts prepared for or after the meeting.
