*We got a bike order of parts for this-- Coreen has asked Karly to invoice the City, hasn't heard back about that yet.

*Heather notes that Jan is awaiting payment for his work on Waste Down Tune Up-- Derek W will look into that. Coreen says he should have just submitted that with his regular hours.
**
*1 league dropped out, so we do have most of a full kit sitting around-- luckily we didn't order more. Heather says that may not pass muster, the grants may require us to submit a new receipt-- Coreen sent Karly all that information, hopefully we can make that case from the city if they have questions. Most important next step is to get invoices to the City-- that should be Karly's role. Heather will talk to her-- Karly does have some personal matters going on. Heather says the project is moving along the timeline approved-- however due to some drop-out from leagues, only 2 are actually continuing with the training now. Jan & Karly should still be able to get paid for their time.

* Almost all participants have picked up their tires. A few ghosted, so Coreen did a second draw, and there are about 5/50 ppl left to bike up their tires. Participants will get a final questionare end ofFeb, and then we will submit a report to the city. Holly from the city did let us know that she approved some changes to grant after we already implemented the original program, and hasn't got back to Keith yet. We can try to improve this next year.

=== Film Festival proposal from volunteer Ken (8 min)===
  |motion=
*Ken introduced himself-- a volunteer since 2016. He is doing his MBA.
  |first=
*"I'm the good idea fairy." 2 yrs ago Michael Janz sponsored a bike-related film at the Garneau. Knowing that June is bike month and it's 6 months away.
  |second=
*Elevator Pitch: we do a film festival to raise awareness about Bike Edmonton. We get sponsors, other organizations help us pay for this, it brings cyclists together. Doesn't want Bike Edmonton to pay for it.
  |yes=
*Rebecca and Ken got some numbers from Metro-- ~$700 for a screening (staffing, etc-- depends on day of the week). Ken was thinking 2 films/day x 2 days.
  |no=
*What he needs from the board: permission. Maybe merchandise-- he feels Bike Edmonton doesn't push it's brand as well as it could. Volunteers for valet, concession, ticket sales.
  |abstain=
*Keith suggests we committ $600 (to fund at least one film) and encourage them to find sponsors for more.
  |result=
*Adam: concerned about time at board meetings, inquiries coming to the info@ address, etc. Adam would not want to approve this unless there was support from a consensus of shop managers.
}}
*Coreen echos that there will be an implied budget for staff time regarding the above concerns, and June will be our busiest month. She doesn't see herself having a lot of time for this.
* <span style="background: lime;">Action Items:</span> '''name''' will ____ by (date).
*Karl feels this sounds like a good advocacy opportunity-- suggests we find some media partners. Ken intends to contact CJSR, CKUA, CBC.
*Ken feels he has a track record of organization successful events for BE, albeit that they've always been smaller.
