TAM: Approve the Fairfax Bikespine

Fund the Fairfax Bikespine. Make our streets safer for kids, and support green transportation in Marin.

Why is this important?

Manor School has been a leader in the national Safe Routes to School Program, and we can continue to be a model in this movement. However, our streets are marginally safe, even very unsafe for kids. The Town of Fairfax has applied to Transportation Authority of Marin for a $100,000 grant to make the route safer by painting "sharrows" and increasing signage. We're calling on TAM to stand up for safe and green transportation for kids and approve the Bikespine grant.
