🖌️❤️ A little paint, a lot of impact!

A huge thank you to the Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition, Sonoma County Safe Routes to School, and neighborhood volunteers who joined us this morning near Roseland Creek School to paint curbs at Lazzini and Comalli. Just in time for the new school year, we added fresh safety markings and cones to help make walking and biking routes more visible and comfortable for students, families, and neighbors.

These small improvements make a big difference, and they wouldn't happen without community members willing to roll up their sleeves and lend a hand. Thank you for helping create safer, more connected neighborhoods for all ages and abilities! 🚶‍♀️🚲💙
