The Week in Livable Streets Events
Wednesday - The Veggie Grill restaurants are hosting a series of CicLAvia fundraisers similar to the Streetsblog fundraiser at the Library Alehouse back in August. You can get a list of all the restaurant locations that are donating a portion of their proceeds to CicLAvia here. Also, Joe Linton and I will be hosting the event in Santa Monica because, ya know, I'm good at getting people to eat in Santa Monica.

Monday-Wednesday - The Southern California Association of Governments continues its public outreach for the upcoming regional transportation plan. Lobbying SCAG can be a little "in the weeds" but the agency helps set standards for Greenhouse Gas deductions and helps determine how some federal dollars are spent. The meeting in Downtown L.A. was last week, but there are meetings in Carson City, Santa Clara and Santa Monica this week. Get the details, here.

The Week in Livable Streets Events
It's a short week this week, which could be a sign that the summer slowdown is upon us, or that I'm about to get a lot of emails with event information. Never the less, the Transit Coalition has a nice headliner this week, Expo Construction Authority's Rick Thorpe and the last Friday of the month is Critical Mass.

I thought July and August were slow months! We are packed with great events and important meetings, including what might be the last hearing for the bicycle anti-harassment ordinance at Wednesday's City Council hearing.

It's a short week. Middle weeks in July so often are. To make matters worse, Metro Board Committees aren't meeting until next week.

The Week in Livable Streets Events
This is by far the busiest Week in Livable Streets Events calendar we've ever done. It's pretty amazing to see all of the different things happening this week. City Council, Metro Board of Directors and at the end of it all a very interesting Critical Mass.
