I understand that there's also a meeting at 3 pm on Wednesday for members of Boards and Commissions to provide rebranding input. Since we're a Board, we might get better attention than at the meeting for the general public. Better yet, go to both:)

Hi All!
Here are the latest action items. Also, Frank may have been explaining this at Thursday’s meeting and I didn’t quite catch it, but there are actually two separate public ‘rebranding’ meetings happening this week. Per Susan Sullivan—
5 p.m. Tuesday - Public for Main Street Morgantown Rebranding-City Hall 6 p.m. Wednesday - Public for City of Morgantown Rebranding-City Hall
Please show up and voice your support for branding Morgantown as the ‘Bike Friendly Community’ that it is!
