Five Years After: Revisiting the Bicycle Resolution of 2009

It is now 5 years that the Santa Monica School District adopted a far-reaching bicycle resolution. A good reason to revisit the commitments, and to see what has been achieved.



What has been achieved? Well, not too much.I think we were probably a little naive and too optimistic, thinking that the district would in due course discover this text and do the right thing. But paper is patient. We need readers who can remind the district that these good intentions are still only intentions. Some of the board members have probably never heard about this Resolution, so we better link to it in the form in which it was published in the minutes of the meeting on April 2nd, 2009.
