freedom, the joy, and the well-being it instills within us, as well as the power that more people riding bikes

the economy of Mount Prospect, attracting local business spending and reducing pollution and
congestion on our streets and roads; and

of transportation and recreation year-round to attract more visitors to enjoy our local parks and trail
systems, as well as restaurants, retail shops, and entertainment establishments; and

bicycle operation and safety education year-round to improve health and safety for everyone on the road,
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Paul Wm. Hoefert, Mayor of the Village of Mount Prospect, do hereby proclaim
