The League of American Bicyclists (aka Bikeleague, LAB) has announced the addition of Jeffrey Lynne of Boca Raton, FL, to its board of directors. We assume this is to replace Region 3 representative Bruce Rosar of Cary, NC, who died tragically in a bike crash last July. Region 3 includes AL, FL, GA, KY, MS, NC, PR, SC, TN, and VA. (That’s us!)

From today’s Bikeleague newsletter:

The League is excited to introduce Jeffrey Lynne to the League of American Bicyclists Board of Directors. Lynne is a native South Floridian and currently lives in Boca Raton, Fla. Lynne is a Shareholder in the national law firm Akerman Senterfitt, where he practices land use law as part of the firm’s Green & Sustainable Development Practice Group. He also serves as the Executive Director of the South Florida Bike Coalition and is an active member of the Florida Bicycle Association, the U.S. Green Building Council and the Urban Land Institute. Lynne was recently recognized by the Florida Bicycle Association as its 2008 Citizen Advocate for the Year for his pro bono litigation work on behalf of the League and the Boca Raton Bicycle Club to secure the state’s legal obligation to include multi-modal transportation facilities in all of Florida’s state roadway reconstruction projects.

The League also congratulates Lynn for being selected as a finalist for the Daily Business Review’s most effective lawyers award, in the public interest category.
