Vancouver, WA – Tonight's open house to discuss planning for biking and walking has been canceled due to weather. The air conditioning is not working at the Fisher’s Landing Transit Center where the open house was scheduled.
Another open house is this Thursday, July 30 on the 6th floor of the Clark County Public Service Center, 1300 Franklin Street, Vancouver. Planning to improve conditions for riding bikes and walking over the next 20 years is the focus for the open house which will run from 6 to 8 p.m.
Project Manager Laurie Nicholson said the public will have an opportunity to ask questions and learn the status of this Community Planning project. In addition, she said anyone interested may provide input on these three topics:
Potential updates to the Clark County Bicycle Commute Plan adopted in 1996.
How to enhance planning reflected in the Regional Trail & Bikeway Systems Plan adopted by Vancouver-Clark Parks and Recreation in 2006.
Broader concerns about how to make the county more “walkable” to promote health and safety for pedestrians both in urban and rural areas
Nicholson said a draft plan should be ready for additional review and comment in the fall, before it is forwarded to the Planning Commission and Board of Clark County Commissioners for hearings and formal consideration in 2010.
More information is available on the project Web site at www.clark.wa.gov/bikeandped. People interested in learning more may also contact Nicholson directly at (360) 397-2280, ext 4544, or e-mail laurie.nicholson@clark.wa.gov.
