In 8 days, we have our first successfully signed Citizinvestor petition!

It only took 8 days for the bicycle community of St. Petersburg, Florida to rally around this successful petition for the City to install bike pumps and fix stations along the area’s bike lanes!

We wanted to take this moment to celebrate with the 100+ citizens who signed this petition and to explain how the petition process works moving forward. Now that the petition has reached its target number of signatures, we will work with the petition’s creator (Reuben Pressman) to set up a meeting with the appropriate people inside the City of St. Petersburg or Pinellas County. Reuben will then have the ability to pitch his idea to the government entity, with the tangible support of 100 St. Petersburg residents at his back. Citizinvestor will work with the municipality to introduce them to our platform and encourage them to post the project on Citizinvestor where it can raise the funds necessary for these bike pumps to be installed!
