Some of the issues that will spoken to are:

• What can be done about "humped curbs" at some of the key intersections in The Woodlands.
• The possibilty of closing down Lake Woodlands Drive for a period of time on Sunday mornings making it available for cyclists only.
• With The Woodlands being a designated "Bicycle Friendly Community" what does each candidate feel they could do to facilitate us becoming a better bicycle community
• Will the candidate work with the TXDOT Guidelines that emphasizes Bicycle and Pedestrian Accomodations
• If elected how would the candidates work with The Woodlands Development Company, The Township and TXDOT in building and maintaining more "Bicycle Friendly Roads"

I look forward to seeing each of you Monday Evening.
