Wednesday, June 4 – Bike Boulevard Meeting

Posted on June 3, 2025 by Robin Steinberg
Dear Neighbors,
Mitman BOD will not be holding our usual monthly meeting. However, we will be getting together Ryan Fagan, a City engineer, to review plans for the Sahuara Bike Boulevard. The current Boulevard goes from the Loop to Speedway Boulevard, with safe crossings at Glenn St. and Grant Road. The next project is to join the Boulevard to its southern route. This entails a safe crossing at Speedway and a route through our neighborhood to get to the crossing at Chantilly across 5th Street.
The meeting will begin at 7:00p.m. at the Ward 6 office. Anyone interested is invited to attend. Please come to the rear entrance and ring the bell. There is parking in the rear.
We look forward to seeing you and getting your input.
