The Trails and Open Space Coalition felt it was critical to include a maintenance of effort clause to garner the support of TOPS voters. Now we'll see how they react.
Thanks Douglas and Mike for supporting trails and open space!
Adrian - see you there. We look forward to the bells!
It's called RTA not RHA. The "T" stands for transportation. And if you don't think people use their bicycles for transportation, talk to LSI - a local company whose employees logged 12,000 miles last year commuting to and from work. It's about vision. 10 years ago there were fewer bicycle commuters than there are today. We can plan for the next decade with a modest investment....or miss this opportunity.
Congrats to you both and lucky all those involved in the 2012 Give!
Great news for city parks! The "water bill" is expected to be $2 million this year and won't go up quite as dramatically over the next 5 years given this new projection. Water will still remain the fastest growing "cost" for the parks department.

The city's loss is the county's gain. John was one of the best. It's great we get to keep him in this area!
