The City of Vernon has made application under a grant program to
undertake a project directed at increasing road safety and expanding the
accessibility for cyclists through the provision of bike lanes.
City of Vernon Council has approved the application for 100% funding of
this project through the Gas Tax Program. Councils’ resolution at the
time of application was that no decision on the commencement of the
project would be made by Council until such time as grant approval had
been made from the Gas Tax Program.
An information session was held on September 20th, 2011 to inform
adjacent business owners, about the proposed project, and answer
questions, and gather comments from those in attendance. As communicated
to those in attendance, all input received during that information
session will be presented to City Council at the October 11th, 2011
Council meeting. Wherein Mayor, and Council, will consider all comments
received concerning this project. No decision has been made on the
funding of this project from the Gas Tax program.
