As we head into the truly warm months that lie ahead, the Salt Lake County Bicycle Advisory Committee is pleased to announce the election of its executive committee members for the calendar year 2015. John Herbert has been re-elected chair of the committee and will continue to fill the role with enthusiasm and vision. For the first time in a year, the committee has a vice-chair. Kate Sturgeon boldly stepped forward for the job and fills a position of leadership and wisdom that is essential to the functioning of the full committee. David Ward and Ian Scharine have been re-elected to serve respectively, as treasurer and secretary. AJ Martine will continue to contribute his input and strategic thinking as past chair advisor.
Please take time to check out the following links, SLCBAC is collaborating directly with these organizations. What is needed is direct community engagement and participation, much of the planned development will determine a significant portion of the future of bicycle use in and along these vital county resources:
