2. Funding of bike safety and education programs in the District, possibly in the context of changes to the federal transportation bill.

3. What connections are needed with MPD to address enforcement issues as they arise?

4. Any DCBAC role related to regular safety / education events such as Bike to Work Day,  Street Smart Campaign, etc?

5. Your ideas!
