2024-08-19 Lynchburg Urban Network Meeting Notes

Monthly handson project: - not everyone can make our meetings - we should be doing things

Lets get together and do a project each month. This will be a work day.

Specific day? Keep it consistent? Pick each month? Keep it third week or make it 1st week. Tim: says 1St week is better Randy: we need actionable steps for each meeting Gioa: cleanup? Nathan: that is part of our mission Randy: what is the scope? Strong Towns has a wide range Nathan: review mission statement Gioa: we aren't “building” but rather “transforming” the city Nathan: we need a fiscally responsible “resilient” city: no more cul-de-sacs Randy: the city can't afford maintenance of the city how it is currently built Nathan: we do some Strong Towns things but not others: we don't address housing policy much Nathan: picking up trash is definitely in scope Everyone agrees that the first Saturday would be good. Tim recommends the bike pump for September Gioa: what is the bike pump? Nathan explains about the bike pump. Nathan then shares that GitHub Lynchburg Road Issues has a list of DIYable issues Discussion of the trail sign at Tinbridge Trail Connector from Kemper Station Trail

Nathan on NTMP for Wadsworth St: received letter from traffic engineering; there is no documented speeding issue, Nathan disagrees; 1900cars drive on Wadsworth every day Discussion of lowspeed vehicles and golf carts

Rename the group? Livable Lynchburg? Livable CVille guy is okay with it. Randy suggests “Livable Lynchburg: A Strong Towns Chapter” for branding purposes Gioa agrees
