Sanibel City Council special meeting to review alternatives for proposed Dunlop Rd. shared use path

Sanibel City Council will hold a Special Meeting at 9 a.m., Thursday, December 2, 2010, to review and consider alternatives for the alignment of the proposed Dunlop Road Shared Use Path. The meeting will be held in MacKenzie Hall, Sanibel City Hall, 800 Dunlop Road. Citizens are welcomed and encouraged to attend the Special Meeting to provide their input.

The Dunlop Rd. project is just one of four shared-use-path projects funded in Sanibel's 2011 budget (a total of $400,000). In addition to the Dunlop Rd. project, they will be constructing a shared use path on the north side of Periwinkle Way from Sanibel Community Association crosswalk to St. Michael's crosswalk; installing signage and dark sky compliant lighting for the proposed Dunlop and interconnecting paths; and investigating improvements for the Sanibel Community Association crosswalk.

Kudos to the City of Sanibel--an LAB-designated Bicycle Friendly Community--for moving forward on implementation of its 2009 Shared Use Path Master Plan!
