That's not getting around Rio Dell -- please, the city would like you to visit. It's getting around in Rio Dell.

The City of Rio Dell Planning Commission will meet next Wednesday -- March 27 -- at 6:30 p.m. in the council chambers to talk about the draft "cirulation element" of the city's general plan. What is this? Quoth the city's news release:

The Circulation Element identifies the Goals, Policies and Implementation Measures for moving people and goods within the City and identifies the infrastructure necessary to assure that the transportation network will serve the City at General Plan build-out.

The Circulation Element also identifies alternative travel modes, such as walking, bicycles, and bus transit. The alternative transportation modes are important to reduce pressure on roads, conserve energy, improve the public health through exercise and enhance the quality of life for the City's residents.

You can perambulate, drive, bicycle, skateboard (we think, anyway ... ?), hop, or otherwise get a ride over to city hall, 675 Wildwood Ave., between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. during the weekdays to peruse the document.
