How do I make my city a cycling city?

I have been to some cities here in California where they are designed to be bike friendly. However, in my city we do not have any bike lanes or bike paths. Most of the time roads are constructed with just enough room for cars. When I started riding about 5 years ago I would never see cyclists, now I see them all the time. My area (not just my city) is growing by 3000 people per month. It is time to put in bike lanes that are safe or what would be really nice would be a bike path away from cars. We have had about 6 cyclists killed in the last 5 years in my area (that I know of). So what can I do to get my city officals to be concerned for cyclists?
