That would be great if you could work something like that out. I think
the biggest factor that could limit our growth would be the difficulty
in getting people to attend frequent meetings.
Anyone have computer skills who'd like to help Josef?
David Vahedi volunteered to handle the paper work for us; I'll contact
him this week to start the process. If you don't mind, I'll have him
work with you since you seem to have the best knowledge of this. The
question is, do we move forward with the paperwork now, or should we
wait until after our first meeting on May 15th?
My thinking is to initially form this group as a 501c4, then have the
option of forming a political action committee at a later date. As for
the name, I still like the League of Bicycling Voters because it tells
people exactly what it is; Roadblock's name, The Bike Lobby, would be
ideal for a political action committee.
We also need to start looking into opening a bank account and PayPal
account. Vehedi said he could help us set up a credit card account to
accept donations/dues that way.
