Hello ITE Central Coast Section Members:
I hope this email finds you well and you are getting ready for the holiday season and will spend some needed rest time with your friends and families. We have had a good year with several successful meetings and a fantastic Vendor Show in Ventura. It was the first time we had the show in over 2 years and I really want to keep the momentum going in growing our section and overall member participation and benefits.
The Central Coast Section has decided not to hold elections this year and to keep the same officers on the board. This decision is based on current discussions about possibly restructuring the section. The past few months have included discussions about how we might strengthen our respective sections by combining the Central Coast and Central California Sections. This has the potential to provide more membership and financial resources for the Section to operate better.
This is still in the early discussion phase, but we seek your input to add to the discussions. We want to hear your thoughts in the next few weeks before our next meetings in early January on how this could benefit or impact the Section. Please also consider ways we can strengthen our current section or how a larger combined section may provide more opportunities or impact your level of engagement. Ultimately, we are all looking for ways to improve the long-term sustainability of the Section(s) and remain relevant and meaningful to the members.
Please send me an email with any thoughts, suggestions, or feedback for our Section.
Happy Holidays!
Kathy Kleinschmidt
ITE Central Coast President.
Our next meeting will be on October 24th at Noon.
Jeff Hereford, Principal Transportation Engineer with the City of Ventura, will present an update of their current active transportation efforts, including the City’s Active Transporation Plan, Montalvo and Sheridan way capital projects, bicycle education programs, and the upcoming Santa Paula Branch Line bike path project.
The ITE Central Coast Section Vendor Show on November 16, 2023!
This year’s Vendor Show Meeting will take place at the City of Ventura, Community Meeting Room. This event will be a great opportunity for members to meet vendors and learn about new technology and services that may be useful in their daily transportation needs. Vendors will also be giving a short presentation to further showcase their products and services. If you are unable to attend in person, you can still watch the presentations via Zoom. We hope to see you there!
We are also pleased to invite vendors and consulting firms to reserve an exhibition table and/or sponsor the event. Reserving an exhibition table includes a timed slot to present your products and services to our members. But hurry! Vendor spots are filling up quickly, so be sure to reserve your spot ASAP! Alternatively, you can sponsor the event by purchasing a sign with your company logo to be displayed during the meeting. By participating in either of these options, you will help us raise funds to support Cal Poly San Luis Obispo’s ITE Student Chapter. For more information, please refer to the attached Vendor Show Registration Form. We look forward to hearing from you soon!
For more information about the vendor show or to participate, please contact Mark Bueno with the City of Thousand Oaks:
