The City of Brighton Bike Brighton Sub-Committee on May 13 approved the meeting agenda and minutes, assigned volunteers and logistics for several upcoming rides and events, and discussed who is responsible for installing bike racks on private property.
Chair Joey Arp called the meeting to order at 5:36 P.M. and the committee, with members present and staff on hand, voted 5-0 to approve the agenda after a motion by committee member David McWilliams and a second from Mark Humbert.

Assignments for upcoming events were confirmed: McWilliams will bring armbands and poems; Mark Humbert will bring the ghost bike; Tyler will bring copies of the route. Aburto said she will create a raffle sign-up sheet and check what giveaways the committee can use for the BBQ, SummerFest and Touch-A-Truck events. The committee noted that Safety Ride class registration ends Friday at noon and Aburto will email a reminder to members.
On logistics, Aburto said she will confirm catering (burritos) for Martin Marietta and collect counts from city departments for Bike to Work Day. The group confirmed the event calendar through June, including the Full Moon ride on May 31, SummerFest on June 6 and Bike to Work Day on June 24. The committee also recorded that there will be no July meeting; the next regular meeting is scheduled for June 10, 2026, at the MSC Building.
