3 Top Priority Bikeways + Active Transportation Coordinator
- How do we measure progress on these goals?
- Is there a way to link HUB goals and Community Energy and Emissions Planning (CEEP) goals? Also note climate emergency declarations.

RAC meeting - Ryan
- BC Budget 2020 Consultation open for comments until June 28.
- TransLink Regional Transportation Strategy (Transport 2050) seems very focused on technology rather than cycling - collecting input until September for plan to be completed late 2020.
- Elephants feet legal standing and need for Green paint - issue is municipality needs to explicitly sign each application or pass a bylaw. The feet do nothing on their own and cyclists may be at risk since many motorists are unaware of their function. Green paint should be considered to highlight vehicle-cyclist conflict points at intersections and driveways.
Draft Whitepaper on economic impacts of installing bike lanes - need to condense to a 1 pg infographic - Erika to review.
All Committee Meeting - Thurs July 27, 18:30-20:30, in Surrey - potential to arrange carpool depending on interest.
Review of HUB State of Cycling maps for the North Shore - Jay to send maps and request input for City North Van and District of West Van. Intent is to verify what is out there, not whether it is best practice or up to standard - SoC project will eventually complete that classification for us.

Ride to council
Riverside Drive delineators - concerns relayed to various levels of staff
1st / Mackay construction detours and signage corrective action request - still an issue with gravel surface and pavement drop off - likely nearing completion.
Next meeting - TBD - challenges in getting face to face meetings with staff
Present to council - proposed to go as delegation
Possible Spirit Trail route east of Seymour with NSMBA - we are supportive as this could connect up isolated neighbourhoods with schools and recreational areas. Not a top priority relative to our other three.
