Bike Walk Commission outlines $8,000 annual allotment and seeks volunteer budget manager
Summary
The commission reported an $8,000 annual allocation from Norwalk and requested volunteer assistance to manage spending. James Dignotti volunteered to help; commissioners plan to track spending for helmets, lights, graphics and outreach.
Chair Emily Burnemann reviewed the commission’s proposed budget and said the group receives $8,000 annually from the City of Norwalk to support events, supplies and programming.
"We get about $8,000 from... Specifically, $8,000 from the city to spend on our, commission," Burnemann said. She asked for a commissioner to help manage budget tracking and reimbursements; James Dignotti volunteered and Becca Stoll offered to assist. Commissioners discussed typical line items—helmets, bike lights, reflective vests and potential graphic‑design spending—and noted the need to track microgrant and grant spending alongside the city allocation.
No budget changes were voted on during the meeting; commissioners agreed to form a small sidebar team to update the spending document and report back.
