Charitable Objects (Purpose)
On October 3, 2010, the Annual General Meeting of the Society voted by Special Resolution, receiving more than 75% support, to strike the existing objects and replace them with the following:
- To provide, administer and maintain a multi-use facility for Edmonton and area dedicated to providing cost-effective, do-it-yourself bike repair facilities and access to an environmentally sustainable, economical means of transportation,
- To educate the public by providing courses, seminars and workshops about bike mechanics and/or safe and effective riding,
- To extend services to marginalized members of the community as well as new-comers,
- To facilitate communication between cyclists and governments or others to improve bicycle infrastructure and policy, and
- To assist the Edmonton community at large in the promotion, encouragement and understanding of cycling culture.
