The Spokane Valley Planning Commission is inviting you to participate in a public hearing on the Bike & Pedestrian Master Program (BPMP). The BPMP will guide planning, development and management of existing and future bicycle, pedestrian and multi-modal connections throughout Spokane Valley. You can view the plan information thus far, here.

 

The hearing is on Thursday, July 7 at 6 p.m. in Council Chambers (11707 E. Sprague Ave.).

Representatives from the Spokane Valley Community Development Department will present information on efforts taken over the past year to inventory existing facilities, conduct broad ranging public outreach and coordinate with outside agencies to identify unmet needs and potential bike and pedestrian projects.

The City of Spokane Valley applied for a competitive grant from the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants (EECBG) Program and was awarded funds to facilitate safety analysis, route location, and implementation. 

Your involvement is imperative to making sure the BPMP reflects the needs and goals of community members of all ages and abilities. The anticipated time of completion for the BPMP is summer 2011. 

Here is the schedule for adoption:

Planning Commission Public Hearing - July 7, 2011
City Council Administrative Report - July 19, 2011
City Council First Reading - August 9, 2011
City Council Second Reading - August 23, 2011
