Lake Tahoe Bicycle Coalition Helps Save Maintenance Funds!

With persistence and courage, the Lake Tahoe Bicycle Coalition has secured funds for maintenance of its local bicycle paths.

A threatening Measure B attempted to amend funds allocated to bike path maintenance (Measure S), but instead was narrowly defeated on election day. Although the election has passed and the Coalition has claimed a victory, it is still taking precautionary steps and is actively gathering all Measure S documents in order to be better prepared for future initiatives and possible measures to protect bike path maintenance funds.

As stated by the Lake Tahoe Bicycle Coalition, they are hopeful that this event has awakened the bicycle community to the need to be organized, unified, and action-oriented. Special thanks were also extended to all voters and other organizations helping in the cause to retain the integrity of Measure S.
