I'd like to hear each member say what he or she will do to get H.B. 4304 passed. Desired outcome: ideas and BB full court press to get the bill passed.

Okay folks,
This meeting needs to happen. And I need minutes/action items from the last meeting.
I'm sure Jing will have some updates.
Here's what I have so far for an agenda-
Welcome First Sergeant Matt McCabe our newest ex-officio member and ask him for his views on the BB and how to implement the enforcement part of the Bicycle Plan. Planned Enforcement Actions:
- Establish and maintain a plan for traffic enforcement to improve
bicycling safety and to reduce the perceived risk of bicycling in Morgantown. 2. Conduct an annual Enforcement for Bicycle Safety workshop with the Morgantown Police department. 3. Send rights and duties postcard to motorists that cyclists or others observed and reported violating bicyclist rights. 4. Handout rights and duties card along with citation to cyclists who violate rules of the road. 5. Cite bicyclists who run stop signs, ride against traffic, make improper turns or violate other laws. 6. Cite motorists for improper driving around cyclists with emphasis on failure to stop for stop signs, failure to yield at intersections and passing cyclists too closely and too fast. 7. Measure bicycle use, bicycle crashes, bicycle injuries, and bicycle-related citations and publish the results quarterly and yearly. Analyze data to identify opportunities for increasing bicycle use and reducing crashes. Every year, 2 months before the beginning of the City's annual budget cycle, conduct an annual review with City Council, Chief of Police, City Engineer and the Bicycle Board of trends in bicycle use, bicycle crashes, bicycle injuries and, bicycle-related citations and identify required changes to the Bicycle Plan and related plans and operations.
