Approval of Minutes — July 20th, 2006
The minutes of July 20th, 2006 were approved as presented. Voice vote: All AYES. Motion passed.
Public Forum
Severson noted that Ross Finney wished to reserve time to speak at public forum, but he is a bicycle commuter
coming from Medford and thought that he would be here between 6:00 and 6:30. Asked that we leave him time to
speak later in the meeting.
Don Willott, a visiting Non -Motorized Transportation Advisory Commissioner from Bainbridge Island, Washington
introduced himself and discussed the guide his Commission had prepared to present the bicycle and pedestrian
amenities of Bainbridge Island as a significant tourist amenity. He also discussed their share the road campaign,
educational efforts, and their current work to develop context sensitive solutions.
Ross Finney, a bicycle commuter, discussed his concern with the condition of the railroad crossing at Laurel and
Hersey. Severson explained that efforts were underway to upgrade this crossing, but that the railroad was unwilling
to issue the necessary permits as they hope to decommission the crossing entirely. Finney was advised to address
his concerns to the Traffic Safety Commission as well, and members asked staff to request warning signs be posted
warning cyclists of the condition of the crossing and urging caution.
Subcommittee & Liaison Reports
Severson presented an update on the budget and the installation status of the skateboard racks. He discussed
upcoming events, urging members to attend the annual presentation before the City Council on September 191h.
Harding and Young indicated that they would attend..
Meyerson discussed bicycle distribution programs through the Community Bike Program, noting that ten bikes had
been given to UNITE and Migrant HeadStart.
West noted that federal funds would soon be available to communities with Safe Routes to School plans in place,
and suggested working with the Traffic Safety Commission and the Council to develop a plan and get buy-
in/adoption in order to have access to those funds in the near future.
Chapman exited the meeting. Without a quorum present to continue the meeting, members were forced to continue
the remaining items until next month's meeting. Those present adjourned to a subcommittee meeting to discuss
preparations for the upcoming Car Free Day event.

Subcommittee 8/17 Discussion of Car Free Day
West noted that the subcommittee had met earlier today, with West, Harding, Meyerson, and members of thV
Community Bike Program in attendance. Task lists were developed.
It was noted that the subcommittee had determined it would be better to limit the scope of the event to Oak Street as
had been done last year. It was explained that there would be tours in the morning this year, to avoid conflicts with
other events, and that their would be a group leaving from the Dog Park at 10:00 a.m. Saturday morning to go to th'i
Greenway event at Blue Heron Park in Phoenix. Dubois and Bleicher indicated willingness to help with this ride.

Memo
DATE: September 21s`, 2006
TO: Bicycle & Pedestrian Commission
FROM: Derek Severson, Planning Department Staff Liaison
RE: Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA) Request for Funds
In light of discussions of the BTA funding request when I was absent back in June, I wanted to provide a
little additional information that may be of assistance in considering this request.
As noted at the June meeting, the original intent of the Commission in partnering with the BTA was that
the bike safety education program would become a self-sustaining one. But the anticipated mechanism
for that to happen was that as the program was developed it would take on a life of its own and be
carried on by each school with individual teachers to champion the program. Prior to our partnership
with the BTA, commissioners worked for years to develop a program and build momentum with parents
and teachers. These efforts never took hold, and without the partnership with BTA it's doubtful that
bike safety training would have become a reality in the schools. In considering the desire to develop a
self-sustaining program, it may be worthwhile to look to Bike Swap funds which have specifically been
identified as a means to fund bike education since the Commission became involved with the Bike Swap
— a self-sustaining funding source could go a long way toward finally developing a self-sustaining
program.
Because there appeared to be a number of concerns with the per class cost analysis provided by the
BTA, staff would remind Commissioners that as noted by Egon Dubois at the last meeting, these costs
are a statewide average based on program expenses and the number of classes taught. Since that June
meeting, the BTA has revisited those figures and indicated that their actual costs are in fact not $800 per
class but $1,124. They have requested $8,000 in funding from the Commission which represents a
subsidy of the class cost, not full funding of the program. $8,000 for 21 classes works out to $380.95
per class.
Given the discussion of separating from BTA and forming a local program, I spoke to representatives of
the BTA. They indicated that they would be as supportive as possible of such an effort, and explained
that in Bend, a private non-profit called Central Oregon Commute Options was recently formed to
develop a similar program to replace an existing BTA program. In that case, BTA not only trained their
instructors, but also gave them the fleet of BTA bikes and a portion of some grant money that BTA had
received for programs in Bend. I've sent messages to the group in Bend trying to get an idea of their
experiences with developing the program, but to date I've received no responses.
Commissioners should keep in mind the fact that the Commission cannot enter into contracts on behalf
of the City or appropriate funds, so to develop a local, self-sustaining bike safety education program the

primary options would be to form a private non-profit as was recently done in Bend or to find an
existing local organization such as the Parks Foundation or the School District that would be willing to
take on administration of the program.
OPTIONS
Fund BTA request through a combination of Bicycle & Pedestrian Commission, Traffic Safety
Commission, and Bike Swap funds. ($5000 in Bike Swap funds and $1500 each from the two
Commissions would cover the $8000 request.)
Create a private non-profit to administer a local bike safety education program as has been done recently
in Bend.
Find a pre-existing local entity (School District, Parks Foundation, etc.) willing to administer a local
bike safety education program.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff believes that the commission should thoroughly explore the feasibility of the other options prior to
making a decision to break with BTA, or risk an interruption in the program that has been one of the
commission's biggest successes over the past decade.
Given the membership turn -over and attendance difficulties experienced on the Commission of late,
staff has serious doubts about the feasibility of forming a successful non-profit which would require
forming a board that would operate separately from the Commission.
It should also be noted that the Commission's $3,300 in program funds were specifically allotted to
facilitate a partnership with BTA, which had an established and nationally recognized program they
were willing to bring to Ashland. If the partnership with BTA were abandoned, these funds would
likely be lost in the near future and a private local non-profit would be directed to seek funds through the
annual city budget process.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission
c/o Derek Severson Assistant Planner
20 E Main Street
Ashland, OR 97520
Dear Ashland Bike and Pedestrian Commission;
Anna Scalera recently shared with me some concerns and questions raised about our bike
safety education program and our recent request for support from the Commission. I
wanted to take a moment to respond, but first I would like to thank you for supporting our
efforts to provide bike safety to every school in Oregon. Your support has helped us
reach many kids in Ashland, and we hope to continue to expand the program to
eventually reach every student in Ashland. Ultimately, we hope to build enough support
for these programs to lead the Department of Education to require (and fund) this type of
course for all schoolchildren in Oregon!
Comprehensive reach of the program
Our program relies on a variety of funding sources, and we scale the program based on
the income we receive each school year. While we subsidize local programs with
statewide funds, corporate support, support from individual donors and from the BTA's
own membership, we cannot write a blank check.
That said, we have received significant community support for our Ashland programs
over the years, and believe that it is very likely that if we received $8,000 from the
Commission, and past supporters renewed their support, we would be able to reach all
Ashland students. We would love to see that happen!
Self-sufficiency goal
You have asked about the "self-sufficiency" of the program within communities such as
Ashland. Having each community completely fund and operate their own bike safety
program is an ODOT goal, and that we are happy to support when it is possible.
However, we realize that local community resources can be limited, that it takes time to
build local and statewide support, and that the expertise gained from working with other
communities and statewide organizations can be very valuable to our overall goals.
As of yet, no community has reached self-sufficiency, but the BTA is working hard to
make it happen. We cannot guarantee to reach every kid at this point, though, since
funding comes from so many sources that we do not have direct control over. Only the
reputation and results of our program and the constant hard work of our staff can be
relied on in the futlaeF.,But we did not create this program to fail — we intend to reach
every studentin Oregoa;.. .wgtar-,actively working towards that goal!
Interest in and support for our program and the overarching Safe Routes to School
concept is growing dramatically, and has inspired support from Oregon elected officials
and the federal government. -We think that this is only the beginning.
We are involved in conversations with organizations, officials and businesses, from
Ashland and elsewhere, and we are steadily building support for youth bike safety. We
are involved in shaping funding sources that may apply to bike safety, such as the new
Safe Routes to School funding from the federal government; we created a state law to
help guide that money. We are also actively influencing the shape of the new Oregon
Safe Routes program, which is administered by ODOT, and we will help Ashland and
other communities to get access to that money; some of those funds will be made
available to bike safety programs like ours.
Cost of the program
Our recent request for $8,000 was made in response to your desire to know what it would
take to reach every student in Ashland each year. The request was based on estimates
about the actual cost per class, applied to the current Ashland student population, minus
expected funds from other sources.
I understand that you have seen a budget document we used to estimate the costs of the
program in 2005/06. That document was based on back -of -the -envelope calculations, and
failed to include the significant costs of purchasing and maintaining bicycle fleets and
helmets. A more current, more accurate calculation of the true program costs is attached.
While some folks may have balked at these costs due to the sharp increase from previous
estimates the BTA gave years ago, we believe the cost breakdown reflects the true costs
of running the program today. Years ago, the cost estimates given also did not include
the total match from volunteers and other funding sources. The BTA has subsidized our
bike safety efforts in Ashland over the years with other government contract funds, local
support from bike clubs and businesses, and individual supporters, including BTA
members.
We strongly believe in this flagship program and think it provides value to kids and
communities across the state. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, or feel
free to contact Anna or Egon, or Robert Ping, our Safe Routes to School Program
Director, who are more in touch with the day -today management of the program.
Thanks again for your consideration.
Warm regards,
Evan Manvel
Executive Director

2006
t
From the Desk of the
Executive Director
2 005 was an
exciting year
for Commute
Options. We made
great progress
in our quest to
promote choices
that reduce the
impacts of driving
alone. In just
one year, we saw
a 6076 increase commute Options Executive Director, Jeff Monson
in the number of
business partners promoting transportation options for
their employees. Hundreds of local workers chose to bike
walk, carpool, vanpool, telework or take a shuttle rather
than driving alone to the office. Through these efforts,
we saved almost 150.000 roundtrips last year, keeping
hundreds of cars off Central Oregon's roads every day.
2006 promises to be even better. We recently launched
the TravelSmart program, which uses an innovative,
customized approach to educate and motivate individuals to
use alternative modes of transportation. A new partnership
with the Bicycle Transportation Alliance is bringing bicycle
safety education into local elementary and middle -schools.
The 16th Annual Commute Options Week is slated for June 4
10, with the biggest, most competitive Corporate Challenge
yet. The Commute Options Fair will be Sunday June 4th.
And the City of Bend is working with consultants on a
proposal for a fixed -route bus system.
Inside this Commuter Reporter you'll find a report on last
year's progress and an update on a few upcoming projects.
After learning more abut the transportation choices your
neighbors are making, I think you'll agree that what's good
for Commute Options is good for Central Oregon.

commute Options' ongoing mission is to create a livable community by promoting
transportation choices that encourage healthy Individuals, a clean environment,
and a strong economy„ We pursue our mission by educating citizens, businesses,
and government about the value of carpooling, vanpooling, walking, bicycling,
teleworking, and riding the bus.
Project TlravelSMART
Underway
you one of the lucky ones? 1200 Bend residents have been
Ap`-,r-o
domlyselected to participate in TravelSmart®, an innovative
gram that encourages environmentally -friendly ways to travel.
The concept originated in Australia, where one TravelSmart project
targeting 35,000 people in Perth resulted in a 14% reduction in car trips
and increases in walking (35%), cycling (61%) and public transit use (17%).
Here in Oregon, the Department of Transportation is funding
TravelSmart pilot projects in Bend, Eugene, Portland and Salem/Keizer.
In partnership with the City of Bend and Commute Options, the project
will use a survey to
identify individuals
who want to change the
way they travel. Using
personal, individualized
contact, TravelSmart
aims to motivate them
to choose green travel 40
options by providing
customized information
and training to help
them bike, walk or
carpool for some of
their trips.
TravelSmart gives
participants just the
information they ask
for to help them get
started, or to keep on
walking, biking or
carpooling, Those who
don't want information
receive no further
contact. And best of all,
materials are delivered
to participants' doors in
the most efficient and
cost effective way — by bicycle.
Commute Options Week 1;4
Commute Options Week is entering its 16th year in Central
Oregon, June 4-10, emphasizing the importance of transportation
choices in creating a more livable community. Mark your
calendars for:
• The Commute Options Fair, Sunday, June 4th, at the Les
Schwab Amphitheater— presented in partnership with the
Summer Sunday Concert Series.
• The 16th Annual Corporate Challenge, starting June 5th —
regional businesses, from extra -small to super -large, compete
to reduce their motor vehicle trips.

Bicycle Safety Education
ixth-graders at Obsidian
Middle School in Redmond
and fifth -graders at Juniper
and other elementary schools in
Bend are eagerly anticipating
the arrival of Kent Howes, a
Bicycle Safety
Education
instructor
trained by
the Bicycle
Transportation
Alliance.
Howes will
arrive with
a fleet of 30
bikes, helmets,
brochures,
safety vests,
videos,
and other
equipment.
Students
will receive
ten hours of
in -class and
on -the -bike instruction in bike
safety, rules of the road, helmet
fitting, equipment repair and bike
handling skills. They will even
get a chance to take a community
bike tour.
What he enjoys most, Howes
says, is sharing the freedom of
biking with students. He also
wants them to stay safe on two
wheels. He says one of the most
important lessons he teaches is
consistency.
"Sometimes
kids don't
understand
how important
it is to ride in
a straight line
on the road,
so I explain
to them that
drivers need to
know they're
predictable,
that they're
not going to
swerve out in
front of
them."
Commute
Options is
sponsoring the Bicycle Safety
Education project along with
the Bicycle Transportation
Alliance. To learn more about

Newport Bridge Closed
April To November
n case you haven't yet heard, Newport Bridge will be closed
for widening from April to November, reducing the number of
downtown river crossings from three to two.
Commute Options is working with the City of Bend to cut down on
construction chaos by encouraging alternative methods of travel rather
than just alternate routes. "That is such a heavily -used corridor, and
we'd like to keep those cars off the alternate routes," says Kim Curley,
community outreach coordinator for Commute Options. "Commuters
can help by carpooling, biking, walking, setting alternate work
schedules, or teleworking."
Downtown workers in particular can avoid traffic snarls and
parking hassles by not bringing their cars to work. "There is free
parking at Mt. Bachelor Park and Ride, and it's an 11-minute walk
along the river to downtown. That's much more convenient than
moving your car every two hours," points out Curley.

Ashland, OR 97520
Dear Derek,
61
July 17, 2006
The Bicycle Transportation Alliance is very grateful to the City of Ashland for its $4,200
contribution in support of Bicycle Safety Education efforts in Ashland.
Ashland's support of our nationally recognized Bicycle Safety Education program helps
students to lead healthier, more active lives. In addition, the program's classroom and
on -the -bike instruction help reduce a child's risk of being involved in a traffic accident,
which is the leading cause of death in American children.
Contributions like yours are critical to the success of this program, which has reached
more than 20,000 children in 19 communities throughout Oregon and southwest -
Washington.
In 2006 and beyond, we will be expanding our youth programming to include more "Safe
Routes to School" efforts. Safe Routes to School is a growing international movement
that involves working with teachers, parents, and community members to create
environments that are safer and more supportive of children walking and bicycling to
school.
Please save this letter as a record of the city's contribution. The Bicycle Transportation
Alliance is non-profit, 5016 organization. Our Tax ID# is 93-1057956.
Again, thank you for supporting the BTA's Bicycle Safety Education work. If you would
like more information about our programs, please call me at 503.226.0676 x15.
Warm regards,

City of Ashland
Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission
C/o Derek Severson, Assistant Planner
20 E. Main Street
Ashland, OR 97520
Dear Ashland Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission,
Thank you for the Commission's past support of our programs. In planning for the coming school year,
I'm excited to take on the challenge of offering the Bicycle Safety Education program to every school in
Ashland where 10-13 year olds are enrolled. In order to meet that challenge, we will need to prepare for a
30% increase in the numbers of classes we provide.
To take a step back for those of you unfamiliar with our work, the Bicycle Safety Education program is a
unique 10-hour course that teaches ten to thirteen year -olds how to safely ride a bike on the street. Pre-
adolescents experience the highest rates of injury and fatality from bicycling of any age group. Kids also
need encouragement to be physically active; bicycling provides this in a fun way that allows for
exploration of newly gained independence.
Our program is different from commonly run `bike rodeos' in that we believe a comprehensive, hands-on
approach is necessary for kids to truly learn the concepts of safe on -street riding. BTA provides a fleet of
up to 40 mountain bicycles with gears and handbrakes, hundreds of helmets, teaching equipment,
curriculum and video, volunteers and most importantly, a trained instructor for every participating school.
BTA has taught over 25,000 Oregon children since 1999. We hope that someday, our program will be
institutionalized in all school districts.
The following table shows an estimation of the grades, numbers of classes and seasons in which we will
work with each Ashland school in the coming year:

The two schools that will be new additions for us are John Muir E.S. and Bellview E.S. John Muir is a
new K-8 school where we have already identified a teacher -champion interested in bicycle safety.
Additionally, John Muir's principal formerly worked at Walker E.S. where BTA has been teaching for
years. Bellview E.S. has refused to offer our program in the past four years, however, with anew
principal, we're hopeful that Bellview will want to take advantage of the opportunity to provide bike
safety education for the 4`h and/or 5`h grade. Scheduling all schools during fair weather months will be
challenging, but there are just enough weeks to fit everyone it. Additionally, our Eugene Bicycle Safety
Education instructor is moving to Ashland this summer, so we will likely have a back-up instructor.
In 2005-2006, we worked with a per class cost of $800. We think the actual cost may be higher than this,
but we haven't completed our internal audit work to determine the updated cost; we will use the
$800/class figure for another year. With 21 classes, the total program cost is $16,800. We are asking the
Commission to support BTA in funding half of these classes (10 classes), for a total of $8000. If we
reach all 21 classes, we will teach approximately 630 kids.
Other partners who have supported us in the past that we will request support from again include:
• Asante Health Systems: $2000 (request to be made)
• Ashland Food Cooperative: Community Grant, $1000 (secured)
• Ashland Community Hospital: $400 (request to be made)
• Ashland Parks and Recreation: $1600 (request to be made)
• Ashland Traffic Safety Commission: $1600 (request to be made)
• Oregon Department of Transportation matching grant: unknown amount, based on the percentage of
kids taught in Ashland compared to the rest of the state.
• Siskiyou Velo: $2000 (request to be made)
With your support, we hope to reach our goal of offering Bicycle Safety Education in all Ashland schools.
Please see the attached documents that provide more background on our $800/class cost, the history of
BSE classes taught in Ashland, and a look at spring 2006 programs run statewide.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me at 503.226.0676 x19, anna@bta4bikes.org, or our
local Ashland Bicycle Safety instructor, Egon Dubois, at 541.482.2347, egon@mind.net.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Anna Scalera

Feedback on Ashland's application to be designated a Bicycle Friendly Community
Ashland is well on its way to becoming a Silver level Bicycle Friendly Community.
Reviewers noted that with continued improvement in some key areas, the city will
quickly move up the ranks of Bicycle Friendly Communities. Highlights of the city's
application included the fact that 79% of the community's arterial streets provided wide
shoulders or bike lanes for cyclists, the Car Free day, improved connectivity through the
city and SOU campus, and the expansion of the Safe Routes to School program.
Ashland should continue expand its education programs including Safe Routes to School
and motorist education efforts. Therefore, reviewers provided the following suggestions
to further promote cycling:
Increasing bicycle use. The City should continue to develop its commuter
encouragement and trial commute program; continue to increase encouragement
of bike commuting through Bike Month or Bike to Work Day programs; and
encourage local employers to offer guaranteed ride home programs, secure bike
parking and showers at workplaces.
Olympia, Washington holds a Bike Commuter Contest during Bike Month and
encourages people to participate in the month -long Contest to see who can ride
the most number of days or miles in the month of May. The growth in
participation has been stunning. Olympia also offers city employees a $2 per day
incentive for commuting by bike (as well as for walking, riding the bus or
carpooling). Each year, approximately 50 to 60 of the City's 600 employees
participate in the Bicycle Commuter Contest. Visit www.climatesolutions.or,?
for more info.
Expand motorist education and Share the Road encouragement programs by
creating informational hand-outs for drivers and cyclists. Use valuable
information from the League's Ride Better Tips in your outreach education and
encouragement efforts. See the Ride Better Tips pages at
http://www.bikeleague.org/resourcesibetter/index.php
• Work on motorist education and encourage bike commuting with a Bike Month or
Bike to Work Day celebration and use of Share the Road psa's --

Expand the Safe Routes to School Program in every school. In Arlington, Virginia
a team visited every school in the County with representatives from Department
of Public Works, the Police and Schools to assess conditions for walking and
biking to each school. A list of problems and solutions was developed measures
were identified to address problems. Short-tenn projects such as painting
crosswalks were done right away while larger construction projects are on -going

Hola,
I just spoke to Lynn Mutrie from ACTS Oregon, you may remember the SR2S
training we did at the Fire House a little over a year ago with Robert Ping
and ... Lynn!
I have invited her to attend the meeting with Helman and Walker on the 15th
and to speak a little about the Community Safe Routes Plan that each Rogue
Valley city will need to complete in order to be eligible for future SR2S
state funding. The plan addresses Safe Routes needs from crosswalks, to
completing sidewalks to adding benches for senior citizens. She advises
having Engineering and Public Works involvement in the community plans; she
has already spoke to Jim Olsen about this I believe. This could be a great
project for both the Traffic Safety and Bike Ped Commissions to work on
together. Luckily their will be a Community Safe Routes Plan template
distributed as the funding and ORS becomes more solid but Lynn says we
should have a general mission statement and parternship building occurring
right now.
Derek ... when are the Commissions doing their goal setting for the next
year? I think its important that drafting a Community Safe Routes Plan be a
priority for the Commissions to work on next year.
She said we are well ahead of other Oregon communites by having active Safe
Routes programs, she was especially excited to hear about Walker's Walking
Wednesdays!
