We were able to cover those expenses thru registrations, sponsorships, and a grant, with enough left
over to rebuild some of our razor thin cash reserves,
hire additional staff early next year, and give a donation to PAL (Police Athletic League).

By the end of the meeting, the community groups and elected officials determined that the current bridge design
and accompanying public process were
inadequate. Senator Fumo told the
South Street Bridge Coalition that he
will support what the community wants
from the design and requested that the
Streets Department consider the
neighborhoods concerns and incorporate their recommendations. If it is determined that the on ramps are not necessary, the Senator will work with his
counterparts in Washington to get
FHWA approval to close the ramps.
The William Penn Foundation made a $82,500 twoyear grant to the Bicycle Coalition to develop a map of
Missing Connectors between existing the bike lane network and off-road trails and to promote the development
of a City-wide Bicycle Plan and new position for a Bike/
Pedestrian Coordinator by the next Administration.
