Valley Bike/Ped Master Program Update

Wondering what's happening with Spokane Valley's Bike and Pedestrian Master Program (BPMP)? Well, tomorrow, Aug. 30, Valley staff is scheduled to provide a detailed administrative report on the BPMP to City Council members. This meeting will be held at City Hall in the Council Chambers commencing at 6 p.m. and is an excellent opportunity to learn more about the BPMP. Or you can check out this summary sheet of the program.

This meeting will provide an opportunity for Council to make changes to the BPMP. Council members may request staff to draft an ordinance with minor changes reflecting City Council's changes, or remand substantial modifications back to the Planning Commission for a future scheduled public hearing. If there are substantial changes the community will have an opportunity to voice their opinion(s) at the Planning Commission public hearing. So there you go, now you know what's happening with the BPMP.
