*[ | *Casino is next month. Colin is the volunteer coordinator, but needs help getting slots filled. | ||
*Communications student Massimo is doing work. | |||
*CoE thankfully accepted our CIOG 2024 reporting late, and we are now in good standing for our 2025 application to be considered. | |||
*Tonight Rebecca will submit the Alberta EcoTrust grant, which volunteer Keiran helped out with lots with the budget. The ask is $50k to partner with even more organizations to divert even more bikes from the wastestream, some of those $ could go to an additional space. | |||
*Rebecca recently came across a volunteer appreciation grant! | |||
*Coreen is receiving interest in the bike-friendly business initiative, and would like to get more info about it onto our website. This might be dovetail with the "buy local" trend. Businesses are essentially self-identifying as bike-friendly-- they can write us a line or two about what makes them bike-friendly. City has offered to forward a list of business that participated in a similar City project last year. We should automate the cue to renewal somehow. | |||

*Intending to get a survey out soon. Karl will need shop managers' help sending it out to members and promoting it on socials. There are questions on aspects of bikes that municipal candidates are starting to get their teeth into, and also re: federal support of bike infrastructure & tariffs. | |||
*At their last meeting, the advocacy committee came up with a few ideas for campaigns. Alex has been working with Edmonton Transit Riders on bringing City Nerd, an urbanist influencer, to Edmonton in July. Other ideas that are being kicked around are: advocating for completion of implementing the bike plan, which is behind-- only 4km has been completed, despite some preening; there's been a rumor that City will be paring back Vision Zero due to loss of photo radar revenue; advocating for cyclists' alternatives during the future High Level Bridge closure. | |||
*Keith as the spokesperson would not name and shame individual candidates, but would potentially highlight the overall failure of council and administration to implement the plan. | |||
*Brad wonders if there's a way to allign with potential contractors who aren't getting the work of all this infrastructure that's been budged but not built. But that's probably not for during the election. | |||

*Brad finally got some feedback today, Aidan has been on leave, but the national office committed to getting back to him this week. | |||

*Met end of January to discuss ToR and going through the bylaws. They haven't met since, not much to report at this time. | |||

* | *We implemented a workaround on Square's crackdown on donations, which was in response to some federal legislation changes. Should be ok since we're not giving out tax receipts? Might be good for Derek W to look into? Maybe Robyn would have insight into it. | ||
