7.6 December 1, 2016 Ben Gomberg Manager, Active Transportation Transportation and Works Department City of Mississauga Mr. Gomberg, The Share the Road Cycling Coalition (STR) is launching a new workshop that I believe would be of value to the City of Mississauga. The objective of the workshop is to enhance and support the work of Bicycle Advisory Committees (BAC). To achieve this, Share the Road staff will come to your community to lead an interactive 3-hour workshop that includes: Tips for building a strong committee, including recruitment, training and ongoing member engagement An inspirational overview of best practices from other jurisdictions in Ontario and across North America Facilitated goal setting for the short (1 year) and medium (3 year) term In-depth planning for implementation of goals moving forward with a focus on planning productive meetings, liaising with staff and elected officials, effectively leveraging sub-committees, developing new funding partnerships and what pitfalls to avoid A printed workbook and post-summit access to digital workshop files. In advance of the workshop, STR staff will liaise with the BAC Chair to develop a clear understanding of local challenges and priorities. Our staff will also be available post-workshop to provide ongoing support to committee members and to foster connections with BAC members in other Ontario municipalities. Share the Road has been working with municipal stakeholders to build safe and connected bicycle-friendly communities since 2008. As the provincial-lead on the Bicycle Friendly Communities Program, we have developed a strong understanding of the successes and challenges encountered by municipalities looking to encourage cycling. We also have hands-on experience helping communities develop and implement action plans. Over the past 2 years, we have successfully delivered 9 Bicycle Friendly Community fee-for-service workshops, covering 20 municipalities (http://www.sharetheroad.ca/workshops). Our new workshop for Bicycle Advisory Committees is based on this proven model. We would like to offer the City of Mississauga the opportunity to be the first to participate in our BAC workshop in the winter of 2017. As the first community to participate, we would offer you a discounted rate of $500 + travel expenses (approx. $250). I look forward to the opportunity to discuss this with you further. Yours sincerely, Jamie Stuckless Executive Director Share the Road Cycling Coalition jamie@sharetheroad.ca / 613-618-8930 Share the Road Cycling Coalition, 1070 Main St W, Hamilton, ON L8S 1B4 www.sharetheroad.ca Page 1

7.7 Active Transportation Office City of Mississauga, Transportation & Works 201 City Centre Drive, 8 th Floor Mississauga, ON L5B 2T4 October 12, 2016 RE: Accessible Recreational Cycling in Mississauga To Ben Gomberg, Manager, Active Transportation: City of Mississauga Accessibility Advisory Committee is writing this letter as follow-up to Recommendation AAC-0009-2014, adopted by Mississauga Council on April 23, 2014 which states: 1. That the verbal presentation by Chris Spinney, Operations Manager, Lynda Spinney, President, and Chelsea Mohler, Vice-President of TRAILBLAZERS with respect to the TRAILBLAZERS Program be received; and, 2. That Naz Husain, Melanie Taddeo, Amy Wilkinson, and Rabia Khedr form a working group to meet with member(s) the Cycling Committee to have further discussion on the concept of tandem cycling. Members of the Accessibility Advisory Committee did meet with the Mississauga Cycling Advisory Committee on June 10, 2014, but no opportunities were identified at that time. A meeting was held with Community Development, Active Transportation and the Accessibility Coordinator to discuss submitting an application for funding from the New Horizons Seniors Grant for an Accessible Recreational Cycling Program. It was decided that this grant program was not appropriate for this cycling program as the original idea from the Accessibility Advisory Committee was to provide inclusive cycling opportunities, not just for seniors. It was also decided that the program would be pursued when the framework of the program is more fully vetted (i.e. risk management, delivery methods, collaboration etc.). This would also allow time to pursue other granting bodies. At its meeting of September 12, 2016 the Accessibility Advisory Committee reviewed the Committee Work Plan and again discussed the possibility of connecting with the Active Transportation Office, the Mississauga Cycling Advisory Committee, and the Commissioner of Community Services with respect to the investigation of accessible cycling opportunities for persons with disabilities, and made the following Recommendation which was adopted by Council on September 28, 2016:

7.7 AAC-0030-2016 1. That the Pending Work Plan Items Summary Chart updated for the September 12, 2016 meeting of the Accessibility Advisory Committee be approved, as amended; 2. That the Chair of the Accessibility Advisory Committee write a letter to the Active Transportation Office, copied to the Mississauga Cycling Advisory Committee and the Commissioner of Community Services, expressing support of investigating accessible recreational cycling options for persons with disabilities. The Members of the Mississauga Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC) wish to emphasize the importance of active transportation and recreation opportunities for persons with disabilities in Mississauga. Offering accessible cycling opportunities would demonstrate the City s commitment to making Mississauga a great place to live, work, travel, and play for everyone. Further, it would support and strengthen the City s Strategic Plan to move, belong, connect, prosper, and live green; support and strengthen the City s Accessibility Plan; and would highlight Mississauga as a Municipal leader in creating a barrier-free City for all to enjoy, regardless of ability or age. We value the City of Mississauga s commitment to advancing accessibility in all its programs and services and appreciate staff s due consideration of this matter. Sincerely, Carol-Ann Chafe Chair, on behalf of the Mississauga Accessibility Advisory Committee cc. Councillor Chris Fonseca, Ward 3 Councillor Matt Mahoney, Ward 8 Councillor Pat Saito, Ward 9 Chair and Members of the Mississauga Cycling Advisory Committee Carol-Ann Chafe, Chair, Accessibility Advisory Committee Paul Mitcham, Commissioner of Community Services Shari Lichterman, Director, Recreation Steve Barrett, Manager, Transportation Infrastructure Stephanie Smith, Legislative Coordinator, Mississauga Cycling Advisory Committee Diana Simpson, Supervisor, Accessibility Planning -2-

7.8 Sent: 2016/10/31 12:18 PM To: Carolyn Parrish Subject: Integrating cycling infrastructure to bypass Heartland Hello, I have a suggestion for integrating cycling lanes so as to safely bypass the Heartland area of Mississauga. Please see the attached image. The current problem: With the current demolition of the 2nd Line bridge (which connected Bancroft Drive to Meadowvale), there are inadequately marked on-road facilities for cyclists traveling north/south to and from Meadowvale. Suggested solution: Consider adding on-road painted bike lanes to the portion of Courtneypark between Mavis and McLaughlin (A). This would link up to the existing bike lanes on McLaughlin that only go so far as Cantay Rd. (C). A new bike lane could be painted that would link Freemont and Falbourne through the new stormwater facility, and along Cooksville creek (B); This would then neatly integrate with the existing bike route along Ceremonial (D).
