Update on June 2020 City budget and bike project funding

At its June 16, 2020 meeting, the Davis City Council approved the budget that had been decided several days earlier, without restoring funding to five projects that Bike Davis asked for. (See previous news item below.) Thanks to all who attended and spoke at the Council meeting and those who signed out petition to save these projects from the budget axe.

Councilmember Lucas Frerichs reassured us that four other bicycle infrastructure projects, with funding mostly from outside sources, are still underway. He also pointed out that funding for the five projects mentioned in our recent alert may still be found. So we will keep up our lobbying efforts to secure sufficient funding for them.
