Summary
Kara Schmidt of Team Peace asked the Orleans Town Council for support for a Kids Bike Camp planned for late June 2026 and requested Orleans Police help lead bike-safety sessions; council members expressed support but no formal vote was recorded.
Kara Schmidt, an organizer with Team Peace, asked the Orleans Town Council on Wednesday to back a proposed Kids Bike Camp planned for late June 2026 and requested that Orleans Police participate in some sessions on bike safety. Council President John H. Lindley presided over the monthly work session, which began at 9:00 a.m.
Council members including Councilman Randy Clark and Councilman John F. Noblitt expressed verbal support for the project and offered the town’s involvement “in any way possible,” according to the meeting minutes. The support was described as informal; the minutes do not record a formal motion, vote, timeline for a decision or a funding commitment tied to the camp.
Schmidt asked the council specifically for police involvement in safety instruction, a request council members acknowledged during the discussion. The minutes do not indicate whether Orleans Police leadership was present at the work session or whether police participation had been formally accepted.
The meeting adjourned at approximately 9:28 a.m. following a motion by Councilman Randy Clark, seconded by Councilman John F. Noblitt.
