City of Edmonton Seeking Members for 

TRAILS, PATHS & ROUTES ADVISORY COMMITTEE

 
The City of Edmonton Trails, Paths and Routes Advisory Committee (TPRAC) is receiving applications for two new members.  TPRAC works towards the enhancement of Edmonton's environment for walking, running, cycling, inline skating and travel by other active modes.
 
The TPRAC provides City of Edmonton civic administration with advice on plans, maintenance and projects affecting multi-use trails and non motorised transport on sidewalks and cycling routes throughout the entire city.  The committee also initiates projects to bring forward pertinent issues.
 
Committee members represent a broad range of users, ages and abilities from different areas of the city.  Meetings are every second month, usually Downtown on Mondays at 5:30 p.m.
 
To apply, send contact information and a page or two explaining your interest in Edmonton’s trails, paths and routes.  Also outline what skills or experiences you can bring to the committee.  It is important that cyclists be properly represented. Applications can be sent to: tprac@edmonton.ca.
 
Deadline for applications is August 21, 2009.
