Community Advisory Committee Final Meeting, May 12, 2025
The CAC wrapped up after four meetings, during which they provided input on the TMP’s elements, community engagement, and more. The CAC members represent Zip Codes from Baden to Dutchtown and utilize the City’s streets and sidewalks in different ways, from using mobility aids to exclusive bike and public transit use. Thank you to the TMP CAC for all of your work and input!
The TMP tabled at the CityPark stop for Bike to Work Day, organized by Trailnet. Cyclists stopped by the table for refreshments and to do an interactive activity about prioritizing bike facilities and facility funding.
A Bike Network Workshop was held on July 14, 2025 (rescheduled from May due to the tornado); 109 people attended. It began with a presentation about the TMP and history of biking in the U.S. and St. Louis, then transitioned to workshop activities such as drawing bike connections on maps, prioritizing bike facilities and funding, and a comment form.
Two open houses were held to inform the public of the TMP Draft Plan elements and obtain feedback. The Open Houses were rescheduled from May to July due to the May 16 tornado. The first Open House was held on July 16, 2025 at the Piper Palm House in Tower Grove Park. In addition to the Draft Plan information, participants could enjoy a shaved ice and yard games outside. The second Open House was held on July 19, 2025 at The Rock Church, during which participants could view the Draft Plan, enjoy a shaved ice, and learn a line dance.
