Mark Schulz <br />711 Dumont Drive <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />Monday, February 22, 1999 <br />Dear Orange County Commissioners: <br />I am a member of the Orange County Bicycle Task Force. As a member <br />of the Taskforce, I strongly support the bicycle plan for Orange County <br />that Slade McCalip is presenting to the Commission this evening. The <br />Taskforce has worked diligently on the plan. I hope you will give it <br />careful attention and endorse it. <br />I commute regularly between my home northeast of Hillsborough and the <br />UNC- Chapel Hill School of Public Health. My usual route is Dumont Dr. <br />to St Marys Rd., left on Cameron for one block and right on Margaret <br />Lane to Churton Street. Then, I follow Old 86 to Carrboro. Each of last <br />two years I have cycled over 2,500 miles, and most of those miles have <br />been commuting miles. Given my on the road experience, I hope you will <br />give serious consideration to the problems that I describe in the attached <br />letters. <br />Finally, I ask you to act expeditiously on the Bike Plan. The Taskforce <br />completed its work last June. I think we have a right to see action on <br />our work soon. <br />Sincerely, <br />Mark Schulz <br />
