Silver Bicycle Friendly Award

 The City has received the Silver Bicycle Friendly Business Award from the League of American Bicyclists.  I have questions:  1) is there a Gold Bicycle Friendly Business Award or is the Silver one the highest we can get?  2) I can see being a Bicycle Friendly Community but what is meant by A bicycle Friendly Business Award. Do we have bicycle friendly businesses? If so, what makes a business "bicycle friendly"?


Today, the League of American Bicyclists recognized Carbondale Civic Center/City Hall with a Silver Bicycle Friendly Business (BFB) award, earning it a place alongside more than 1,100 businesses across the country contributing to the movement to build a more Bicycle Friendly America for everyone.
