A
I
call
to
order
this
regular
meeting
of
the
Board
of
Public
Works,
this
Tuesday
April
11th
of
2023..
First
up,
we
have
messages
from
board
members.
Do
we
have
any
messages
from
the
board
this
evening
all
right?
Seeing
none
next
is
petitions
and
remonstrances.
This
is
the
opportunity
to
make
public
comment
on
something
that
is
not
on
our
agenda.
So
if
anyone
is
here
to
make
public
comment
on
something
that
is
not
on
the
agenda
this
evening,
now
is
the
opportunity
to
do
so.
A
All
right,
seeing
none
first
up
is
the
consent
agenda.
Under
the
consent
agenda
is
the
approval
of
minutes

March
28th
of
2023

Declaration
of
surplus
Street
division,
a
renew
contract
with
Express
Professionals
for
scooter
enforcement,
samsara,
Fleet,
Technologies,
free
Hardware
use
and
trial
agreement
and
approval
of
payroll.
B
C
A
All
right,
so
it
sounds
like
we
have
a
request
with
a
motion
in
a
second
all
in
favor
of
moving
that
to
new
business.
Do
you
want
to
do
new
business
number
two
so
that
we're
talking
about
it
after
the
yeah
scooter
item?
Okay,
moving
that
to
a
new
business
number,
two,
all
in
favor,
so
we
have
the
consent
agenda.
With
item
number,
six
moved
to
item
number
two
of
new
business.
D
E
If
I
may
hear
I
apologize
to
interrupt,
but
if
it's
possible
to
move
item
number
six
under
new
business
as
the
first
item
this
evening,
we've
got
Chief
Deputy
with
the
fire
department
here
and
I.
Think
he's
got
some
other
obligations
he's
going
to
need
to
get
to.
Do
you
mind
moving
that
to
the
first
item
and
taking
care
of
that
one?
A
Thank
you.
I
got
confused
because
number
six
was
the
other
one.
We
just
moved
so
I'm
sure
we
were
doing
this
right.
Okay,
yes,
you're.
Okay,
number,
six!
On
the
new
business,
we'll
move
to
number
one
perfect!
Okay,
that
sounds.
That
sounds
like
a
good
plan.
Thank
you!
So
much
all
right.
So
next
up
we're
moving
on
to
a
new
business.
Moving
to
the
first
item
under
new
business
is
agreement
with
Martin
Riley
for
architectural
services
and
feasibility
study
for
Bloomington
Fire
Department.
F
Jamie
washell
Deputy
fire
chief
Ford.
We
would
like
you
to
move
forward
with
this
we're
doing
a
architectural
services
for
fire
station
number
one.
This
is
a
contract
with
Martin
Riley.
We've
already
had
preliminary
work
done
on
the
old
station
Before,
the
Flood
and
a
feasibility
study
for
fire
station
number
three
on
North
Woodlawn
and
a
feasibility
study
for
training
and
storage
facility.
Currently
we
lease
a
facility,
that's
six
thousand
square
feet,
we're
fastly
growing
out
of
that.
F
We
are
in
the
third
year
of
a
five-year
lease,
and
so
it's
working
out,
okay,
but
we
do
know
we're
going
to
grow.
We're
going
to
move
that
to
the
South
part
of
town
where
the
Public
Safety
Training
Center
is,
if
you
have
any
questions,
I'm
open
to
those
questions.
B
F
It's
it's
quite
a
bit
expansive
we're
looking
I
believe
to
gain
about
3
000
extra
square
feet
at
the
place.
This
will
have
individual
bunk
rooms.
It
will
have
six
or
more
unisex
bathrooms.
As
you
know,
we
have
a
good
percentage
of
our
firefighters
are
now
female,
so
that
is
what
is
best
practice
now
with
fire
stations,
so
we're
going
to
bring
this
1991
station
up
to
2024
2025
code
and
what
is
best
practices
in
the
fire
service.
Currently.
F
F
We
didn't
really
have
space.
As
you
know,
the
basement
flooded,
that's
where
we
kept
much
of
our
I.T
equipment,
much
of
our
computer
infrastructure,
also
our
weight
room
which
really
wasn't
conducive
for
that.
So
that
basement
my
understanding
is
going
to
be
filled,
so
we
won't
have
to
worry
about
any
sort
of
flooding
issues.
We
also
have
been
assured
by
our
engineers
at
CBU
that
we,
if
we
have
a
hundred
year
flood,
we
should
be
just
fine.
A
F
A
B
D
G
Hi
Alex
Crowley,
director
of
economic,
sustainable
development.
We
gave
this
presentation
the
council
I
will
do
a
quick
truncated
version
of
it.
You
all
have
received
I,
think
our
recommendation
memo
and
a
resolution.
G
What
I'd
like
to
do
is
we
can
go
to
the
next
slide.
Let's
really
give
you
a
little
background
on
micro
mobility
in
Bloomington,
where
we
are
today
what
our
recommendations
are
as
captured
in
that
memo
and
then
what
our
proposed
process
moving
forward
is.
G
So
let
me
just
start
by
acknowledging
this
is
a
pretty
complex
and
contentious
issue.
It
is
one
that
has
it's
somewhat
divided
the
community
in
terms
of
their
which
you
know
their
perspectives
on
on
micro,
Mobility
generally.
What
we
are
trying
to
address
here
are
two
primary
issues.
One
is
Rider
and
pedestrian
safety.
That's
first
and
foremost,
that's
the
top
priority
for
us
and
then,
secondly,
parking
and
pedestrian
accessibility,
which
actually
implicitly
also
has
a
safety
aspect
to
it.
But
those
are
the
two
primary
concerns
that
have
been
raised
along
the
way.
G
G
Unfortunately,
their
timing
was
such
that
they
launched
and
then
almost
immediately
on
the
heels
of
that,
we
were
introduced
to
three
scooter
companies
that
made
their
way
into
town
over
the
course
of
of
late
summer
into
the
into
the
fall
of
2018.
Those
are
bird
lime
and
Veo.
G
Frankly,
they
they
kind
of
arrived
without
much
warning,
in
the
case
at
least,
certainly
the
first
two,
and
we
decided
that
the
first
thing
that
we
wanted
to
do
was
try
to
sort
of
figure
out
what
the
right
rules
that
would
be
so
we
we
put
in
a
set
of
interim
agreements
with
all
of
them
just
to
get
ourselves
used
to
understanding
how
to
how
to
maybe
regulate
it,
which
was
followed
up
in
July
2019,
with
ordinance
1901
from
Council.
That
ordinance
is
what
set
up
the
licenses.
G
Those
scooter
operators
have
been
renewing
their
licenses
since
then,
and
then,
most
recently,
in
the
fall
of
2022
Public
Works
introduced
a
an
enforcement
pilot
into
the
market.
Essentially
some
temporary
labor
labor
going
around
to
try
to
understand
what
was
going
on
and
and
document
it
with
a
little
bit
more
detail
than
than
what
we've
been
getting
to
date.
G
So,
where
we
are
now,
we
have
significant
ongoing
ridership
millions
of
rides
in
Bloomington,
which
is
which
is
pretty
significant.
At
the
same
time,
there
are
Rider
and
pedestrian
injuries
that
are
happening
with
some
regularity.
G
G
We
have
ongoing
parking
challenges
that
you
know
continue
throughout
the
city,
especially
in
those
areas
of
town
that
are
the
densest
congestion
between
scooters
and
and
pedestrians.
And
then
we
have
had
the
2023
redeployment,
but
but
we
were
prepared
to
come
to
you
with
license
renewals.
Everybody
had
all
the
operators
had
prepared
those
we
pulled
back
on
that
in
order
to
really
think
through
how
what
rules
that
we
wanted
to
to
apply,
and
so
we're
in
that
weird
gray
area
of
operators
are
out
there
they're
operating
on
the
basis
of
their
previous
license.
G
We
need
to
revise
that
license,
and
so
we're
coming
to
you
with
recommendations
on
how
to
do
that.
Oop
back
up
one.
So
just
a
reminder
that
you
know
what
we
are
basing
our
recommendations
on
are
two
core
problems:
one
is
Rider
and
pedestrian
safety.
We
want
to
ensure
that
that's
at
the
highest
possible
level
and
parking
and
pedestrian
accessibility.
Those
are
the
two
items
and
two
issues,
and
so
you'll
see
our
recommendations
break
out
according
to
those
two
categories,
so
just
summarizing
the
rider
and
pedestrian
safety
side.
There
are
four
recommendations:
there.
G
One
is
pre-write
education,
quizzes,
adjusting
the
hours
of
operation,
a
minimum
number
of
sit-down
Vehicles
as
opposed
to
stand
up
vehicles
and
then
operator,
helmet
certification,
so
I'll
go
into
those
very
quickly.
The
first
one
is
a
pre-pre-ride
quizzes,
so
one
of
the
problems
is
that
we
have
a
recurring
refresh
of
the
market.
G
People
come
in
having
ridden
a
scooter
before
it's
a
bit
of
a
novelty,
and
so
we
we
do
sense
that
there's
a
bit
of
a
breakdown
in
the
educational
process
of
riders,
and
we've
heard
about
and
learned
about
this
capability,
where
we
can
be
a
little
bit
more
aggressive
in
the
use
of
educational
devices,
The
Operators
may
have
at
their
disposal.
G
So
what
we're
recommending
is
that
there
be
these
kinds
of
quizzes
that
are
done
regularly,
that
cover
the
rules
of
the
road,
safe
habits
and
appropriate
riding
and
and
parking
locations,
and
so
this
is
just
kind
of
like
hammering
the
messaging
that
does
get
delivered
on
the
app,
but
typically
does
not
get
delivered
regularly
to
the
next
recommendation.
Then.
G
There
we
go
so
enforcing
a
minimum
number
of
sit-down
vehicles
in
each
Fleet,
so
the
the
speculation
here
to
some
degree
are
our
hypothesis
is
that
we,
you
know
in
in
expanding
the
percentage
of
a
fleet
that
is
a
sit-down
device
versus
a
stand-up
device.
Our
hope
is
that
we
can
maybe
have
either
both
a
larger
demographic
using
the
devices
to
begin
with.
So
it
expands
the
number
of
people
using
it.
G
Potentially
the
sit-down
devices
actually
have
a
longer
range
or
typically
are
used
over
a
longer
range,
and
then
also
you
know
whether
or
not
there
doesn't
seem
to
be
a
tremendous
amount
of
data
about
it.
But
but
it's
you
know
intuitively.
G
You
know.
People
know
how
to
ride.
Bikes
and
people
are
less
adapted
at
standing
up
on
devices,
and
so
we
feel
like
maybe
it's
more
in
their
comfort
zone.
So
we
think
that
that
it
makes
sense
to
test
this
out
and
we're
not
sure
what
the
right
numbers
are,
but
to
test
out
a
larger
proportion
of
sit-down
devices
and
then
create
a
minimum
threshold
of
25
of
a
total
Fleet,
and
if
operators
are
exceeding
that
number
and
and
hitting
a
50
sit
down.
G
Fleet
percentage
then
actually
incentivize
them
to
do
that,
but
reducing
their
per
ride
Fleet.
So
the
hope
is
to
really
push
more
of
the
sit-down
devices
into
the
community
than
currently
exist
and
to
make
them
a
larger
proportion
of
the
total
Fleet
and
that's
important,
because
we
also
have
a
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide.
G
Okay,
we
we
have
a
curfew.
We
we
one
of
the
things
we
want
to
talk
up
to
you
about
is
having
a
curfew
for
certain
types
of
devices.
We
don't
want
to
eliminate
all
of
the
devices
overnight,
because
some
people
in
the
community
depend
on
them,
but
but
we
feel
from
a
from
a
safety
perspective
that
that
may
be
limiting
it
to
sit-down
devices
in
the
late
night.
G
Hours
might
might
be
better
for
us,
and
so
we're
recommending
that
and
that's
why,
having
enough
of
a
percentage
of
those
devices
in
the
market
makes
sense,
because
it
gives
people
greater
accessibility
into
those
late
night
hours
for
micro,
Mobility
and
then
going
to
the
helmet.
We
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
helmets
that
are
being
put
out
there
by
The
Operators
and
they
are
passing
them
out
at
events
and
otherwise
making
them
accessible.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
they
pass.
G
You
know
code
according
to
the
U.S
consumer,
product
safety
Commission,
so
just
making
that
a
baseline,
not
an
unreasonable
request,
making
sure
these
helmets
are
legitimate
helmets
in
terms
of
parking
and
pedestrian
accessibility.
So
what
we
want
to
quickly
summarize
for
your
designated
parking,
Corrals,
a
geofence
and
a
variety
area
and
I'll
explain
what
that
is:
incentivize
appropriate
parking,
enforce
vehicle,
Fleet
caps,
fine
operators
for
improperly
parked
vehicles
and
special
event
protocols.
So
that's
the
sum
of
the
parking
and
pedestrian
accessibility
recommendations.
We
have
in
front
of
you
so
going
into
the
first
one.
C
G
So
there
The
Operators
have
the
ability
to
geofence,
so
we
can
have
little
Corrals
that
are
that
are
both
physically
marked
but
also
electronically
marked,
so
that
if
I'm
riding
a
scooter
and
I
get
to
a
place
and
it's
within
the
Corral
I
can
end
my
ride
and
if
it's
not
within
the
Corral
I
can't
end
my
ride.
So
that's
the
capability
that
exists.
We
think
having
that
matched
with
a
local
kind
of
designation
of
some
sort,
maybe
painting
the
sidewalk
or
not
the
sidewalk,
but
the
parking
area.
G
G
And
then,
okay,
on
top
of
that,
one
of
the
operators
has
suggested
that
we
think
about
not
just
the
kind
of
stick
of
where
you're
allowed
to
park
and
not
park,
but
also
an
incentive.
We
want
to
look
into
that
a
little
bit
further.
That
would
be
a
nice
add-on
if
it's
possible,
the
idea
being
that
that
you
know,
theoretically,
someone
maybe
gets
points
or
some
sort
of
discount
on
a
Future
ride
if
they're
parking
correctly.
G
So
the
combination
of
those
two,
we
think
will
help
to
declutter
some
of
those
high
high
congestion
areas
that
we
see
in
terms
of
vehicle
caps.
I
talked
about
this
in
terms
of
the
percentages,
but
we
also
want
to
cap
the
total
number
of
vehicles.
So
we
we
believe
that
there
is
probably
still
some
flooding
of
the
market
going
on
right
now.
When
they
first
launched
it
was
a.
It
was
crazy
how
many
devices
were
out
there,
but
they,
you
know.
Our
theory
has
been
to
kind
of
let
the
market
decide.
G
We
would
like
to
put
a
cap
on
the
total
number
put
out
by
a
given
operator,
and
we
are
also
sensitive
that
you
know
we're
doing
that
because
we
feel,
like
maybe
there's
under
utilization
and
the
under
utilization,
is
creating
that
clutter.
So
we
want
to
create
a
a
compromise
point.
Also
that
says
that
if
an
operator
can
demonstrate
that
they're
getting
at
least
two
rides
a
day
per
vehicle
that
they
may
come
and
petition
you
through
through
the
license
process
to
increase
the
deployed
counts
of
vehicles.
G
G
The
last
or
not
the
last,
but
another
recommendation
is:
we
want
to
be
able
to
impose
fines
for
scooters
that
are
parked
improperly
and
we
have
not
that
done
that
to
date
and
we've
we're
not
suggesting
that
that
be
done.
Citywide
necessarily.
What
we
want
to
do
is
start
by
using
the
mechanism
of
the
temporary
label.
Labor,
that's
that's
out
in
the
community.
That
is
a
kind
of
an
agent
of
the
city.
That's
that's
good.
To
some
degree,
they
have
protocols
that
they
work
within.
G
So
we
want
to
use
that
as
a
mechanism
so
that
it's
consistently
documented
it's
clear
which
company
it's
clear
with
a
location
and
time.
We
have
all
that
data
through
the
process
and
use
that
as
a
basis
for
imposing
fines.
What
we
don't
want
is
a
situation
where
anybody
anywhere
can
take
a
picture
of
a
scooter.
That's
parked
somewhere.
We
don't
know
the
source
of
that
picture.
We
don't
know
the
timing
of
it
or
any
of
that
that
becomes
really
unmanageable.
G
And
then
we
have
certain
areas
in
town,
particularly
the
athletic
fields,
around
IU,
but
they're
they're
events,
and
there
are
areas
that
that
are
kind
of
special
events
that
get
really
congested
between
cars
and
people
and
scooters.
And
what
we
want
to
do
is
make
sure
that
there
is
not
the
contention,
particularly
between
pedestrians
and
scooters.
At
those
events,
you
know,
for
example,
at
a
football
game,
got
a
lot
of
people
Milling
around
if
you've
sort
of
introduced
scooters
flying
around.
That's
just
a
recipe
for
for
disaster.
G
G
We
think
that
there
are
other
recommendations
that
we
can
consider
leading
pedestrian
intervals
protected
intersections.
No
right
on
red,
intersections
physical
scooter
and
bike
racks
and
Universal
charging
stations.
We
think
that's
a
little
bit
down
the
road.
What
we
would
like
to
do
is
really
just
address
some
of
these
initial
problems
that
we've
seen
try
to
test
out
our
solutions
to
them,
see
how
they
work
and
see
if
that
improves
the
situation,
and
so
our
proposed
next
step.
This
comes
from
a
council
presentation,
so
we
are
in
front
of
you
today,
April
11th.
G
Our
hope
is
that
the
Board
of
Public
Works
is
is
would
like
us
to
implement
this
these
recommendations.
We
would
begin
the
implementation
between
now
and
the
end
of
July
and,
in
the
meantime,
would
be
overhauling
the
license
application
so
that
it
reflects
the
new
rules
starting
on
April
1st.
One
of
the
tough
things
to
manage
on
these
licenses
is
that
they
all
have
a
different
start
date,
so
we
want
to
lock
in
on
that
April,
first
or
August.
Sorry,
August
1st
start
date.
G
So
essentially,
what
we
would
like
to
do
is
have
a
kind
of
interim
period
between
now
and
the
end
of
July,
where
we
have
recommendations
beginning
to
be
implemented.
Things
like
Corrals
can
be
built
and
used,
and
all
that,
but
by
August
1st,
all
of
the
operators
will
have
that
are
interested
in
being
here
are,
will
have
applied,
reapplied
come
to
you
been
accepted,
and
then
they
can
and
then
starting
on
August
1st
the
new
license
cycle
starts
and
then
we're
locked
in
on
that
cycle.
G
We
think
that
that
date
makes
sense,
because
it's
just
before
the
students
get
back
and
they're
the
primary
users.
So
those
are
the
recommendations.
I
think
there
was
a
slide,
maybe
but
about
kerf.
The
timing,
so
I
mentioned
that
that
that
we're
trying
to
you
know
figure
out
the
overnight
safety
and
also
the
overnight
utility
of
the
devices
and
trying
to
find
a
middle
ground
between
the
two.
What
I
would
say
just
in
closing
is
we've
had
a
lot
of
feedback
from
the
community.
Both
you
know
frustration
with
the
scooter
operators.
G
You
know
positive
feedback
from
from
users.
We
had
a
very
cooperative
and
collaborative
relationship
with
IU
during
the
process
of
setting
up
the
recommendations
and
we
heard
them
and
they
heard
us
and
we
were
we
feel
like
we
found
a
pretty
good
middle
ground.
One
of
the
things
they've
asked
for
is
to
prevent
the
use
of
scooters
on
their
campus
after
Dusk,
and
so
you
know,
dusk
is
a
tough
thing
to
to
figure
out.
So
what
we
want
to
do
is
approximate
that
using
sort
of
hours
and
we
need
to
come
in
to
decide.
B
G
Not
my
understanding
the
way
it's
been
deployed
elsewhere
is
that
it's
sort
of
periodically
just
to
kind
of
reminder,
so
I
don't
think
it's
in
every
ride
situation,
which
I
think
becomes
really
pretty
cumbersome
but
enough
to
to
try
to
stay
top
of
Mind
along
the
way.
B
Right
now,
the
scooter
companies
is
part
of
their
license.
They've
been
required
to
put
on
educational
events
a
couple
times
a
year.
Is
that
requirement
going
to
be
affected
by
the
quizzes
I
mean
like?
Is
the
quiz
gonna
substitute
for
those
educational
leaders.
G
No,
it
would
be
an
augmentation.
You
know
those
requirements,
I
think
it's!
It's
been
good
for
us
to
require
that
educational
process.
Frankly,
you
know
as
much
as
as
they
probably
don't
don't
enjoy
them
doing
them
that
much,
although
maybe
they
do.
You
know
the
number
of
people
that
are
actually
touched
by
those
is
relatively
small
in
the
grand
scheme
of
things.
G
That
yeah,
correct
I
think
they
do
a
lot
of
that.
I
should
also
add
that
IU
is
doing
its
own
education
program
through
through
to
to
its
own
constituents,
particularly
students
and
they're,
doing
that
pretty
aggressively
too
so
we're
going
to
have
sort
of
a
variety
of
different
educational
programs
happening
at
once,
hopefully,
to
get
people
to
really
understand
how
to
use
these.
G
Currently,
two
out
of
the
three
in
town
have
deployed
them,
so
vo
and
lime
bird
is
not
the
deployed
a
sit
down.
And,
interestingly,
our
current
license
says
that
if
you
have
sit
down,
I
mean
we
would
incentivize
you
to
have
static
scooters,
but
limes
deployment's,
relatively
small,
but
they
do
have
them
and
I
think
Vios
is
larger,
but
we've
actually
capped
it
using
a
interim
agreement
so
nobody's
up
to
the
percentages
that
we've
talked
about.
These
recommendations.
B
Does
bird
have
the
vo
excuse
me
the
sit
down
scooters.
G
I
believe
that
they
well
I,
don't
know
they
may
have
to
answer
this
I.
My
understanding
is
that
they
have
maybe
part
strategic
Partnerships
where
they,
where
they
may
be
able
to
have.
You
know,
provide
access
to
them,
even
if
it's
under
a
slightly
different
brand
name
I,
don't
know
that
I've
seen
a
bird
bike
per
se.
G
And
look
I
mean
I,
you
know,
I've,
gotten
and
I
think
you
all
received
a
copy
of
a
letter
where
bird
and
lime
have
asked
to
delay
this
vote.
G
You
know
it
Bears,
reminding
we're
not
here
to
serve
the
operators,
that's
the
other
way
around
and
we
we
believe
that
we
have
put
together
a
set
of
recommendations
and
a
and
it's
not
perfect,
and
it
should
evolve
over
time
and
it
will
evolve
over
time.
Devices
evolve
right.
So
who
knows
what
devices
will
be
out
there?
Two
years
from
now,
we've
put
together
a
recommendation
that
we
feel
is
as
good
a
compromise
between
the
various
interest
groups
or
the
city.
G
The
IU,
which
is
you
know,
the
predominant
ridership,
the
community
members
that
have
voice
their
opinion.
Council
and
you
know
various
staff
members.
We
have
a
scooter
team
that
we
meet
regularly
with.
So
you
know
it
took
us
a
long
time
to
get
to
this
place
and
I
understand
that
it
can
be,
it
could
be
challenging
and
and
maybe
frustrating
to
operators,
but
on
the
other
hand
we
feel
like
this
is
the
right
set
of
recommendations
for
Bloomington.
G
And
yes,
if
an
operator
who
is
here
cannot
meet
these
they
shouldn't,
then
they
they
can't
operate
here.
They
won't
be
licensed
operator
and
if
there's
an
operator
who's
out
there,
that
is
not
in
Bloomington
who
is
willing
to.
You
know
operate
in
the
way
that
that
we
feel
is
in
the
best
interest
of
the
community.
G
We
welcome
them
to
town,
so
we're
not
capping
the
number
of
operators,
we're
not
keeping
anybody
out
and
we're
not
forcing
anybody
to
stay,
but
we
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
rule
set
is
reflective
of
what
you
know.
People
have
said
to
us
along
the
way.
D
The
first
one
may
be
more
of
a
comment:
I
appreciate,
requiring
that
any
helmets
given
away
are
up
to
code.
I
would
love
to
see
some
more
teeth
about.
You
must
give
away
helmets,
I,
don't
know
we
can't
make
the
Riders
wear
helmets,
but
I
think
if
they're
going
to
give
out
helmets,
they
have
to
be
up
to
code
is
not
quite
strong
enough.
So
that's
that's
one
comment.
The
other
thing
I
think
there's
been
a
lot
of
Education
about
not
writing.
D
Stand-Up
scooters
on
sidewalks,
but
I,
think
stand-up
scooters
are
probably
still
written
on
sidewalks
a
fair
amount.
My
concern
if
there
are
fewer
stand-up
scooters
and
more
sit-down
scooters
and
those
also
are
written
on
sidewalks
it'll,
disrupt
pedestrian
traffic
anymore,
because
I
assume
and
forget,
certainly
correct
me.
If
I'm
wrong,
I
assume
the
sit-down
scooters
are
larger
than
the
stand-up
scooters.
G
We
have
I
mean
you
know
it's.
This
is
all
it's
kind
of
interesting,
it's
kind
of
early
and
and
there's
not
a
lot
of
information,
I
hate
to
say
it,
but
we
looked
a
lot
for
different
types
of
data
that
we
were
looking
for.
It
is
our
hypothesis
that
someone
who's
used
to
riding
a
bike
is
used
to
riding
a
bike
in
the
street
right
I'm,
it's
it's
few
and
far
between
I
mean
it
happens.
G
Scooters
one
is
a
bike:
an
e-bike
right,
one
is
more
of
a
kind
of
scooter
like
thing,
we
believe
that
People's
Natural,
understanding
of
being
on
a
sit-down
device
will
lead
them
to
be
off
the
sidewalk
more
and-
and
there
is
some
information
that
suggests
that
you
know
that
that
people
are
are
sort
of
more
prone
to
be
in
the
street,
with
a
sit-down
device
than
than
on
a
sidewalk
and
I.
Think
we
just
have
to
try
it
right
and
see
what
happens
and
see.
If
that
proves
itself
out.
G
That's
our
that's
our
hypothesis
right
now.
We
do
understand
and
are
concerned
about
the
fact
that
the
sit-down
devices
are,
you
know,
a
little
bit
bigger,
which
sort
of
puts
into
question.
Well,
what
does
that
do
for
parking?
G
But
again
you
know
we
sort
of
feel
like
with
the
combination
of
Corrals
and
also
user
Behavior
people
are
used
to
when
they
have
a
bike.
They
don't
just
leave
it
in
front
of
the
front
door
of
the
coffee
shop.
I
mean
people
will
know
they're
supposed
to
put
their
bike
somewhere
in
a
way
that
maybe
people
don't
know
about
stand-up
scooters.
Yet,
and
so
our
hope
and
our
speculation
is
that
that
will
the
combination
of
those
effects
will
help
to
alleviate
some
of
the
accessibility
in
the
public
right-of-way.
A
I
had
a
couple
questions,
one
related
to
the
question
about
helmets.
It's
my
understanding
that
we
do
require
in
those
education
events,
but
also
as
just
a
point
of
access
that
people
can
request
a
helmet.
They
can
be
distributed
at
the
education
events
as
part
of
that
compliance
and
they
can
be
distributed
like
directly,
and
this
is
my
memory.
G
A
And
I
think
that,
to
the
point
about
it,
sounding
a
little
bit
more
like
optional.
All
that
wording
in
the
recommendations
makes
it
sound
a
little
bit
more
optional
in
the
way
that
the
resolution
is
written.
It
sounds
less
optional,
just
because
it
simply
says
all
helmets
provided
by
The.
G
Well,
there
are
three
I
think
issues
helmet
related
issues
that
you're
kind
of
bringing
up
one
implicitly,
which
is
how
do
you
get
a
rider
to
actually
wear
a
helmet
when
they're
on
the
scooter
right?
And
you
know
that
you
you
try
to
train
them.
You
try
to
really
sort
of
encourage
it.
There
comes
a
point
which
there's
only
so
much
you
can
do.
Obviously
we
want
everybody
who
is
riding
a
scooter,
whether
it's
a
stand-up
or
sit
down
one
to
have
a
helmet
on
that.
You
know
that's
just
safe
riding.
G
It
will
hopefully
eventually
get
to
that
place,
but
we're
not
there
yet
by
any
means.
That's
the
first
thing.
The
second
is
to
your
point.
Yes,
we
want
to
continue
at
least
the
Baseline
of
what's
Happening
Now,
giving
away
helmets
making
them
accessible.
We
can
tighten
that
language
if
we
want,
but
we
we
certainly
don't
mean
to
be
backing
off
any
kind
of
requirement
there.
The
third
is
really.
G
What
we
were
targeting
here
is
that
we
want
to
make
sure
that
if
a
helmet
is
handed
out
that
it
is
actually
safe,
and
so
just
setting
that
Baseline
that
says
this,
you
know
you
have
to
meet
certain
minimum
thresholds.
When
you
are
issuing
a
helmet
as
an
operator,
we
think
just
makes
sense.
It
may
be
Belton
suspenders
a
little
bit
in
some
cases,
but
certainly
you
know
making
sure
that
that's
clear
that
there's
that
there's
a
baseline
expectation
that
the
helmet
is
is
a
actually
a
safety
device.
A
And
it's
a
good
opportunity-
and
they
probably
should
have
started
with
this
to
just
ground
ourselves
in
the
the
roles
of
the
different
bodies
that
have
decision
making
around
scooter
related
issues.
So
you
had
mentioned
that
there
had
been
a
presentation
to
the
city
council
city
council
has
an
ordinance
on
the
books
related
to
micro
mobility,
scooters,
whatever
the
wording
might
be
related
to
the
ordinance,
the
Board
of
Public
Works
oversees,
the
licensure
of
the
scooters
and
the
agreement
that
is
engaged
yeah.
G
So
I
mean
you
know
to
simplify
it
for
my
own
purposes
and
my
own
understanding.
So
if
you
think
of
the
ordinance
as
basically
like
allowing
them
and
then
there's
certain
ground
rules
that
are
baked
into
that
they're
kind
of
hardened
right,
that's
sort
of
the
foundation
of
of
of
the
allowance
of
a
micro
Mobility
device
Guru.
G
We
recommend
it
at
the
time
and
we
still
think
it's
a
good
idea
for
the
Board
of
Public
Works
to
work
through
the
changes.
The
licensing
changes,
because
it's
a
it's
a
more
flexible
process
and
and
reopening
an
ordinance
every
time
is
a
is
pretty
cumbersome
right.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
the
ordinance
is
set
up
correctly.
It
may
or
may
not
be.
We
may.
G
We
may
want
to
go
back
to
council
and
propose
a
couple
of
changes
to
the
ordinance,
mostly
just
to
clarify
things
but
the
but
the
rule
set.
That
applies
like
what
are
the
rules
that
the
actual
licensing
decision
who
gets
to
be
here
all
of
that
falls
to
the
Board
of
Public
Works.
So
again,
we
think
that
that
makes
sense,
because
things
can
change
and
we
may
we
may
come.
You
know
come
back
to
you
sometime
this
summer
and
say
you
know
what
this
hypothesis
we
had.
G
A
Well,
the
one
of
the
reasons
I
ask
is
because
you
know
I
try
to
answer
my
own
questions
when
I'm
reviewing
some
of
these
things
and
I
noticed.
You
know,
I
use
recommendation
to
reduce
the
speed
limits
to
10
miles
per
hour,
which
I,
like
that
recommendation.
A
G
The
15
miles
an
hour,
I
I,
would
have
to
go
back
and
look
at
the
language
in
there.
I
don't
know
if
it's
a
no
faster
than
situation
or
if
it's
a
must
be
15
miles
an
hour.
I
mean
that
would
be
a
difference.
I
seem
to
recall
that
it
was
a
kind
of
not
to
exceed
number
yeah.
A
A
Up
to
the
15
miles
per
hour
for
those
who
are
operating
in
the
space,
but
I
I,
just
I
point
that
out,
because
I
I
think
that
that
is
a
potentially
you
know
good
recommendation
for
the
city
to
also
consider
implementing
and
I'm.
You
know
curious
about
who,
within
the
city
needs
to
you
know,
move
that
forward.
If
we
were
to
align
with
that
recommendation,
yeah.
G
I
think
in
the
end,
I
think
you're
right
to
bring
up
the
ordinance
questions.
That
is
legal
clarification
that
we
would
probably
need
to
go
back
and
discover
whether
or
not
it's
clear
enough
that
that's
a
not
to
exceed
number
and
we
can
impose
something
slower
right
and
then,
but
ultimately
that
that
recommendation,
if
if
it
does
not
go
to
the
council,
if
it
is
not
necessary
to
go
to
the
council
through
an
ordinance
revision,
ultimately,
that
decision
would
be
your
decision.
B
How
many
Shooters
are
deployed
right
now?
My.
B
Going
back
to
the
helmets
and
the
helmet
requirement,
I
I,
although
we
required
the
companies
to
give
out
helmets
upon
requests,
I'm,
not
sure
that
we
have
ever
required
them
to
give
out
information
about
how
to
do
that.
They
give
them
out
at
the
events,
but
I
I,
don't
know
that
it
is
an
easy
thing
for
a
writer
to
find
out
how
to
get
a
helmet
if
they're,
not
at
one
of
the
events,
and,
quite
honestly,
if
we
have
an
opportunity
here
with
the
quiz.
C
B
A
C
B
G
It's
hard
to
quantify
I
mean
we
are
we're
talking
about
an
area
of
interest.
That,
basically,
is
you
know,
10th
to
Third
Morton,
to
Indiana,
right
or
roughly
that
that
area,
so
The
Balancing
Act
is
number
one
having
enough
of
them
so
that
they
are
viewed
positively
and
can
as
being
convenient
to
the
Riders.
So
they're,
not
you
know
trying
to
circumvent
that.
We
think
that
that's
probably
one
every
couple
blocks,
then
it
comes
down
to
block
by
block.
G
G
You
know
so
there's
a
lot
of
balancing
acts,
so
we
kind
of
have
to
then
we're
sort
of
starting
the
process
of
saying
Okay,
so
this
particular
block
on
Kirkwood.
Where
is
it
going
to
be
right
and
then
the
next
one
over?
Maybe
we
don't
need
one
and
then
the
next
one
over
we
probably
need
to
think
about
having
one.
G
We've
anecdotally
heard
that
you
know
that
when
Corrals
are
too
far
away
from
each
other
people,
just
kind
of
ignore
them
right,
and
so
you
want
to
you
want
to
try
to
you
know
if
you
believe
that
micro
Mobility
is
an
important
asset
to
to
have
in
the
city,
then
you
want
to
make
sure
you
encourage
proper
usage
of
it,
and
so
we
think
that
that's
roughly
the
number,
not
every,
not
every
block,
but
you
know.
So
if
you
do
the
math,
it's
probably
20
to
30
of
them,
at
least.
G
If
not,
you
know,
because
you
can
do
sort
of
two
blocks
north
and
and
East
West.
So,
but
we
do
we
have
to.
We
have
to
go
out
and
just
mark
them
and
figure
out
where
they're
going
to
be.
E
You
know
one
of
the
things
that
the
outdoor
dining
allows
us
to
during
these
months
between
April
and
the
end
of
September
is
there's
open
square
foot.
There's
a
lot
of
open
square
footage
in
that
and
those
two
blocks
of
Kirkwood
right
now.
So
you
know
during
those
summer
months
when
it's
when
scooter
usage
is
going
to
be
the
highest
we'll,
have
a
lot
of
opportunity
right
there
in
Kirkwood
other
things
that
we're
taking
into
account
when
we're
thinking
about
how
we
locate
the
crowds,
obviously
not
restricting
any
pedestrian
access.
Any
Ada
access.
E
Anything
like
that,
but
you
know
our
rights
of
way
vary
in
size
in
a
lot
of
locations
with
the
sidewalks.
So
you
know
there's
certain
areas
in
the
downtown
that
have
a
really
wide
swath
of
like
a
12-foot
sidewalk,
or
so
you
know
so.
Setting
aside
we'll
be
looking
at
a
lot
of
areas
like
that.
Another
thing
we
did
when
we
first
launched
the
Bike
Share
programs.
E
Is
we
looked
at
a
lot
of
yellow,
curb
areas
that
don't
that
aren't
actual
parking
spaces,
but
also
don't
create
line
of
sight
issues
with
the
with
the
parking?
So
that's
another
option
we're
looking
at,
but
not
looking
to
convert
a
bunch
of
metered
parking
spaces
or
things
like
that.
We're
going
to
look
to
be
more
creative
and
use
spaces
that
aren't
just
your
traditional
parking
spaces.
Things
like
that,
but
yeah.
B
G
G
Prorate,
you
know
each
of
them,
as
I
mentioned,
had
a
different
start
date,
so
prorate
them
through
July
31st
for
the
ten
thousand
dollar
annual
license
fee
that
they
were
to
have
paid
back
then
and
then
start
clean
in
in
August
with
another
full
license,
so
so
yeah
we
recognize.
We
haven't
collected
that
in
fact,
in
some
cases
they
paid
us,
but
we
had
to
return
the
check
because
the
license
hadn't
been
approved.
So
we
want
to.
We
want
to
make
sure
we
get
hold
on
that.
B
G
I
have
that
information
I,
just
don't
have
a
top
of
mind.
I
think
it
I
mean
the
short
answer.
Is
it
kind
of
depends
when
that
the
peak
periods
I
think
exceed
that
number?
So
the
peak
usage
and
and
you
know,
deployment
periods,
and
then
you
have
periods
that
are
well
below
it.
So
I
can
get
back
to
you
with
exact
data,
but
my
sense
is
that
it
sort
of
hovers
around
the
upper
twos
to
the
lower
ones
depending
on
what
time
of
year.
Well.
B
It's
the
question
for
me
that
I
hadn't
thought
of
if,
if
the
ridership
changes
that
much
through
Peak
periods,
are
we
going
to
be
assessing
the
numbers
based
on
what's
happening
with
ridership
during
a
peak
period?
Are
we
going
to
look
at
ridership
over
like
a
a
four-month
period
average?
How
are
we
going
to
determine
when,
when
the
2.0
rides
per
scooter
is
hit.
G
Well,
I
think
it's
a
you
know,
there's
there's
sort
of
no
average
in
a
funny
way
right.
You
come
out
of
the
winter.
It's
you
know,
the
deployments
are
low
and
it
kind
of
goes
crazy
for
a
couple
months
and
it
kind
of
goes
down
again,
and
so
it's
really
up
and
down
and
up
and
down.
So
it
would
be
our
thought
that
you
know
someone
is
demonstrating
it's
sort
of
incumbent
upon
them
to
come
to
us
and
ask
for
it
right.
So
we're
not
gonna.
G
We
are
not
proactively
going
to
be
review
augmenting
or
you
know.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
it's
it's
incumbent
upon
the
operator.
It
would
seem
to
be
that
two
things
one
is:
there's
a
kind
of
natural
ebb
and
flow
of
the
of
the
number
of
deployed
scooters.
G
So
you
may
have
paid
you
know
if
you're
paying,
if
you
were
noticing
over
the
over
the
winter,
two
of
the
three
operators
just
pulled
their
Fleet
right
and
they
have
a
kind
of
I
think
a
decline
ultimately
pulling
their
Fleet
for
the
for
the
winner,
so
I
the
market
to
some
some
degree
takes
care
of
of
some
of
the
low
periods
on
its
own.
G
It
would
seem
to
me
that
you
know
it
would
be
probably
reasonable
that
if
someone's
you
know
up
up
in
the
two
plus
range
for
a
couple
months
in
a
row
that
we
at
least
evaluate
it,
it'll
be
interesting
to
see
what
happens
over
the
summer.
And
you
know
we
have
the
total
number
of
rides
per
operator.
We
have
that
data.
We
do.
We
don't
actually
have
the
data
that
says
here
how
many
devices
are
out
there
yet.
G
But
if
we
put
a
cap
on
it
or
if
we
take
the
total
rides-
and
we
divide
it
by
four-
the
400
that
we're
proposing
I
think
we
can
have
a
pretty
good
idea
of
how
that
that's
going
to
work
and
then
we'll
just
have
to
come
back
to
you
and
say
Here's.
Here's
how
we
think
we
should
administer
that
particular
regulation,
but
for
now,
let's,
let's
use
2.0
as
a
reasonable
number
and
let's
use
400
as
a
number
that
gives
them
an
ample
opportunity
to
have
fleets
deployed
without
the
Clutter.
That's
happening
right
now.
D
All
right,
I
just
have
a
request.
I
appreciate
the
summary
of
the
council
discussion
that
was
shared
with
us
this
afternoon,
but
I
know
that
the
Council
on
accessibility
has
not
been
involved
in
these
discussions
and
I
would
request
big
picture
and
talking
about
Corrals
and
things
minimally.
The
staph
liaison
from
that
council
is
included
in
these
conversations.
C
G
Yeah
when,
as
we
plan
them
out,
I,
think
we're
going
to
do
a
pretty
thorough,
well,
first,
we're
going
to
come
up
with
a
map
and
an
actual
set
of
recommendations
and
I.
Think
we'll
walk
that
around
to
various
interest
groups
to
make
sure
that
everybody.
You
know
that
we're
not.
We
don't
have
the
blind
spot
on
a
particular
issue,
whether
it's
accessibility
or
another
issue,
we're
not
thinking
about.
A
A
G
Well,
because
we
have
deployments
city-wide
and
where
we're
going
to
be
implementing
Corrals
will
be
in
a
subset
of
that.
We
have
to
have
options
for
other
parts
of
town
and
for
you
know,
we
can't
limit
it
just
to
that
sentence.
If
we
were
to
do
that,
we
would
have
to
have
a
parking
Corral
down
on.
You
know
South
High,
Street
right,
which
doesn't
make
any
sense.
G
So
so
the
idea
is
to
to
at
least
create
some
flexibility
for
ourselves
and
and
and
that's
you
know,
the
language
we
thought
might
might
be
best
suited
to
do
that.
E
I
will
just
mention:
we've
got
a
couple
raised,
hands
on
the
zoom
I,
don't
know
if
you
might
want
to
turn
it
over
to
some
of
a
comment,
and
then
we
can
come
back
to
some
board
questions
as
those
arise.
Okay,.
A
That
sounds
great
good.
If
we're
at
a
good
point
to
do
that.
Okay,
we
will
enter
into
a
time
of
public
comment.
We
do
limit
public
comment
to
three
minutes.
A
We'll
we'll
start
with
a
zoom
public
comment
and
then
we'll
go
to
an
in-person
public
comment
and
then
we'll
go
back
to
zoom.
If
that
works.
Okay,.
J
Thank
you
so
much,
and
thank
you
to
the
board
and
thank
you
Alex
for
this
presentation
before
I
get
started,
I'll
introduce
myself.
My
name
is
Lee
Foley
and
it's
Lee
Aaron
Foley
I'm,
the
director
of
government
and
community
relations
for
lime,
Midwest
and
so
lime
has
been
a
part
of
the
Bloomington
Community
since
2018,
and
we
have
been
asking
and
requesting
and
sharing
feedback
what
the
city
and
to
the
city
over
the
last
several
years
for
increased
regulation,
particularly
as
it
pertains
to
parking
management.
J
One
of
the
maps
two
of
the
maps,
actually,
that
was
shown
within
the
city's
presentation,
were
shown
from
limes
efforts
to
improve
parking
that
was
in
downtown
Cleveland
Ohio
and
we've
been
presenting
and
proposing
this
technology
for
in
these
changes
for
some
time,
and
so
we
appreciate
the
city's
Direction
moving
forward
to
improve
parking
management
through
geofencing
for
parking,
Corrals
and
incentivized
parking.
That's
something
that
lime
has
been
requesting
for
some
time,
all
right
as
it
pertains
to
the
differences
in
the
treatment
between
seated
and
standing
devices.
This
is
where
we
have.
J
Our
greatest
concern
is
that
we
have
not
seen
evidence
that
our
data
backed
evidence
from
the
city
staff
or
from
others
that
purport
that
seated
devices
are
safer
than
standing
devices.
I
do
think
that
it's
a
general
hypothesis,
but
within
the
hypotheses
that
have
been
tested
through
through
studies
of
which
Lyman
bird
have
shared
those
researches
with
you.
J
Those
research
papers
with
you
show
that
there's
a
negligible
difference
between
safety
incidents
between
seated
and
standing
devices
and
I
say
this
as
a
representative
of
the
world's
largest
and
most
experienced
operator
of
both
bikes
and
scooters,
and
we
have
both
of
those
devices
in
the
city
of
Bloomington.
Today,
when
we
look
at
a
nighttime
curfew
that
the
city
is
proposing
here
in
these
recommendations,
there
is
no
evidence
that
nighttime
bans
improve
safety,
particularly
as
within
the
city
of
Bloomington.
J
75
percent
of
safety
incidents
happen
during
the
operational
hours
that
the
city
is
proposing
here.
What
that
does
is
limits.
The
mobility
options,
the
affordable,
Mobility
options
of
workers,
third
shift
workers
who
are
looking
for
ways
to
get
home,
particularly
when
buses
are
no
longer
running.
This
is
important
not
just
for
students
at
IU,
but
it's
important
for
workers
across
the
city,
and
we
know
that
this
is
the
case
because
we
have
the
data
to
back
it
up
in
which
we've
shared
with
the
city.
J
Our
concern
is
that
our
input,
though
we
have
shared
it
tremendously,
has
not
been
properly
Incorporated
within
the
recommendations.
Drafted
and
I
know
that
there's
a
serious
concern
on
for
safety,
but
we
have
a
stellar
track
record
for
safety
and
the
reduction
of
severe
incidents,
and
we've
been
a
strong
partner
in
ensuring
that
we
are
educating
our
Riders
to
protect
the
public
and
to
do
what's
right
for
the
city
and
and
people
with
disabilities
and
those
who
are
in
pedestrians.
J
And
so
we
come
to
the
city
earnestly,
and
we
come
to
this
board
earnestly
with
the
request
to
postpone
or
delay
this
decision.
So
we
can
continue
providing
the
feedback
so
that
there
is
not
a
so
that
the
decisions
that
are
made
here
are
backed
by
data
and
not
assumptions
between
the
difference
between
standing
and
seated
devices.
J
One
of
the
presentations
that
the
city
shared
is
from
a
competitive
or
from
a
competing
operator
at
which
they
set
their
own
standing
devices
that
they
have
operating
right
now
in
the
state
of
Indiana
are
more
dangerous
than
their
seated
devices.
That
is
data
that
is
only
that's
exclusive
to
that
operator,
and
that's
that
operator's
concern.
I
think
that
every
city
that
has
their
standing
devices
should
be
concerned.
J
K
A
L
Good
evening
my
name
is
Olivia
Ortega
and
I
serve
as
manager
of
Partnerships
and
policy
for
the
Midwest
region.
For
vo
it's
great
to
be
here
tonight,
I
brought
my
laptop
just
in
case.
There
were
any
lingering
questions
about
operationally,
what's
happening
with
deployment
right
now,
because
there
were
a
few
questions.
I
think
I'll
be
able
to
address,
hopefully
earlier
so
and
quickly.
I
wanted
to
thank
Alex,
Crawley
and
Hank
Duncan
who's,
not
here
and
the
rest
of
their
team
for
being
a.
L
Throughout
the
process
of
forming
these
recommendations
and
I
also
wanted
to
use
the
opportunity
to
just
quickly
give
you
a
better
understanding
of
what
our
program
looks
like
in
Bloomington
and
outline
our
support
for
this
set
of
recommendations.
So
in
2022
writers
in
Bloomington,
they
took
over
122
000
trips
on
vo
scooters,
that
was
over
224
000
miles
for
a
combined
total
of
1.1
million
minutes.
L
I
also
wanted
to
point
out
that
99.9
percent
of
veal
rides
in
Bloomington
are
incident
free,
so
we
collect
this
data
reported
by
customers
and
in
2022
we
received
nine
reports
from
customers
that
a
ride
resulted
in
an
injury
last
year
and
that's
out
of
over
120
000
rides
that
that
year,
but
we
remain
committed
to
working
with
working
with
the
city
and
other
partners
to
ensure
that
micro
Mobility
is
as
safe
as
possible.
L
We
know
that
installing
protected
bike
Lanes
is
the
number
one
way
that
we
can
protect
people
using
bikes
and
scooters,
and
micro
Mobility
in-app
notifications
in
writer.
Education
also
can
help,
as
was
discussed
earlier,
to
ensure
that
Riders
know
how
to
travel
safely
in
Bloomington.
L
We
are
pleased
to
report
that
we
have
about
130
devices
that
are
our
Cosmo
seated
scooters,
that
is
vo's
most
accessible
scooter
on
the
market,
and
it's
preferred
by
a
wider
range
of
riders,
including
women
and
older
Riders,
is
what
we
found
and,
while
over
99
of
scooter
trips
are
incident,
free
vehicle
type
can
definitely
affect
safety.
L
On
average,
our
seated
Cosmo
scooters
experience
62
percent
fewer
crashes
than
our
standing
scooters.
This
is
probably
what
my
counterpartly
was
discussing
earlier,
but
it
is
research
that
that
we
like
to
share
with
partners
because
of
the
accessibility
aspect
of
the
cosmo
scooter.
It's
really
what
we
lead
with
and
then,
in
addition
to
that
user
research
on
our
part
indicates
that
the
cosmos
larger
tires
and
its
lower
center
of
gravity
provide
a
greater
sense
of
balance
and
control,
especially
for
older
Riders,
and
especially
for
folks
that
are
new
to
micro
Mobility.
L
L
In
Bloomington,
for
example,
there
is
a
scooter
commuter
who
works
on
East
3rd
Street,
and
she
often
takes
a
Cosmo
from
a
couple
miles
away
to
get
to
work.
Another
commuter
we
know
of
here
takes
a
vo
from
the
far
west
side
of
town
into
the
city
center
for
work
every
day,
also
for
those
without
access
to
a
personal
vehicle
for
folks
that
work
in
the
service
industry
in
restaurants
and
hospitality,
and
for
many
others,
you
know
access
to
Shared
micro,
Mobility
devices
is
a
game
changer
and
it's
important
at
all
times
of
day.
L
All
right,
I
also
just
wanted
to
say
that
we
are
supportive
of
the
implementation
of
the
pre-ride
quizzes
and
what
we'd
love
to
see
beyond
that
is
a
broader
use
of
vo's
Education
mode.
So
we
evaluated
data
demonstrating
that
first-time
scooter
users
are
among
this,
probably
isn't
a
surprise
or
among
the
most
likely
to
experience
an
injury
or
a
crash,
and
so,
as
a
result
of
that,
we
developed
our
education
mode
in
2020.
So
this
limits
scooter
and
e-bike
speeds
to
eight
miles
per
hour
for
the
duration
of
the
first
ride.
L
L
You
I
just
finally
wanted
to
say
that
vehicle
in
Bloomington
has
always
been
to
be
a
safe
and
reliable
and
accessible
mode
of
transportation
for
residents
and
visitors
here,
and
we're
hopeful
that
these
recommendations
will
strengthen
the
program
and
our
continued
partnership
with
the
city.
Thank
you.
E
I
M
Good
evening,
Jim
Shelton
I'm
speaking,
not
for
the
chamber
really,
but
just
as
a
senior
citizen
who
has
a
wife
who
has
to
use
a
wheelchair
and
I
have
been
very
disappointed
with
the
city's
performance
and
The
Operators
performance
in
terms
of
keeping
our
sidewalks
available
for
people
who
have
to
use
wheelchairs
I'm,
not
talking
about
downtown
so
much,
but
they
do
get
out
into
our
area.
M
I
live
on
the
Southeast
side
and
we
have
those
abandoned
on
the
sidewalks
blocking
the
whole
thing
very,
very
frequently
and
I
have
heard
nothing
in
the
bike
ped
meeting
yesterday
and
quite
frankly,
nothing
here
today
that
says
anything
is
going
to
be
done
to
change
that
the
city
has
no
credibility
based
on
their
past
performance.
M
Maybe
these
Geo
fences
will
help
for
areas
that
are
served
by
one,
but
there
I
mean
we're
dealing
with
college
students
and
that
they
typically
aren't
the
most
responsible
of
folks
at
that
age
and
they
just
abandoned
the
things
when
they're
through
with
them,
and
we
got
to
have
something
in
place.
That's
going
to
change
that
or
we're
going
to
continue
to
have
those
impeding
people
with
accessibility
issues
and
I
I.
Think
that
should
be
something
you
guys
are
thinking
about.
M
I
mean
I
have
the
greatest
respect
for
Mr
wayson
and
Mr
Cartwright,
but
the
city
has
not
done
a
good
job
on
this
so
far
and
I
see
nothing
that
I've
heard
today
or
at
the
bike
ped
meeting
last
night
that
says
they're
interested
in
doing
anything
different
in
the
future.
So
please
make
that
a
factor
in
what
you're
thinking
about
thanks.
A
I
Mr
Vaughn
I'm
going
to
try
to
unmute
you.
If
you
would
like
to
make
a
comment.
N
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
I
had
some
troubles
there
with
unmuting
myself,
but
thank
you
to
the
board.
I
am
Von
Rowland
senior
manager
of
government
Partnerships
at
bird
again.
I
just
really
want
to
reiterate
some
of
the
things
that
my
counterpart
lime,
Lee
Foley,
has
sort
of
broken
down
for
you
here
tonight.
N
You
know,
we've
had
a
great
partnership
with
the
city
of
Bloomington
when
it
comes
to
data
sharing
when
it
comes
to
safety
events
when
it
comes
to
just
overall
how
we've
provided
alternative
modes
of
transportation
for
the
city
of
Bloomington,
just
to
sort
of
answer,
I
know
there
were
some
couple
questions
around
if
we
were
able
to
provide
sit
down
modalities
as
well,
we
are
so
that's
definitely
something
that
we're
looking
to
do
moving
into
this
next
in
generation
of
our
license.
N
So
that's
definitely
something
that
we
have
and
are
capable
of
doing
and
plan
to
do.
Also,
with
regards
to
helmets
we've
given
away
thousands
of
helmets
within
within
Bloomington
and
we'll
continue
to
do
so,
and
yes,
our
helmets
are
up
to
code
as
well.
N
So
we'll
continue
to
do
that,
and
you
know
in
a
more
strategic
effort
too,
and
that's
one
of
the
major
reasons
why
we're
sort
of
requesting
postpone
of
this
decision
at
the
moment
just
to
be
able
to
continue
our
engagement
efforts,
particularly
around
safety,
so
that
we
can
continue
to
educate
individuals
both
within
app
and
in
person
around
the
safeties
of
riding
within
Bloomington
and
just
the
overall
safety
aspects
of
riding
stand-up
scooters
as
well.
N
So
that's
something
that
we
we
want
to
continue
to
partner
with
the
city
of
Bloomington.
To
do
so.
It
just
would
ask
that
we
would
postpone
these
current
recommendations
so
that
we
can
continue
to
have
these
important
conversations
with
the
board,
with
Council
and
number
one
with
the
community
to
have
a
better
and
clearer
understanding
of
the
needs
and
wants.
We've
also
worked:
we've
also
partnered
with
organizations
that
focus
on
accessibility
as
well.
N
So
that's
definitely
a
top
priority
for
us
at
bird
and
another
point
that
we
will
continue
to
educate
ourselves
and
educate
potential
Riders
about
various
mode
modality
options
within
the
market
as
well.
One
last
point
I'd
like
to
point
out
around
parkings,
so
we
also
shared
data
and
ideas
around
incentivized
parking
for
for
Bloomington
as
well.
So
that's
that's.
N
Definitely
something
that
we
should
very
early
very
early
on
with
our
city
Partners
as
a
solution
to
some
of
the
Clutter
and
some
of
the
sidewalk
blocking
as
well,
but
just
something
to
think
about,
as
as
you
think,
about
additional
modalities
again,
sometimes
you
know
calls
for
additional
clutter.
N
So
if
an
issue
is
around
clutter
four
downtown
earlier,
you
just
definitely
want
to
be
more
strategic
around
how
we
set
up
those
incentivized
parking
zones
within
those
corridors
where
we
see
a
lot
of
traffic,
a
lot
of
foot
traffic
to
ensure
that
both
our
stand-up
scooters
and
our
bikes
from
each
operator
are
staged
in
a
way
that
do
not.
You
know
that
do
not
cause
issues
for
ADA
compliance
and
just
overall
quality
of
life
for
pedestrians,
who
are
just
taking
and
walking
the
streets.
N
So
that's
something
to
consider,
as
we
think
about
some
of
these
additional
parking
mechanisms
and
parking
strategies,
but
all
that
to
say
thank
you
again
for
this
opportunity
to
speak
with
the
board
this
evening,
and
we
look
forward
to
continued
partnership
to
be
able
to
provide
alternative
modes
of
transportation,
micro
Mobility
for
the
city
of
Bloomington.
Thank
you.
A
G
I
may
address
the
sun.
Yes,
it's
all.
G
G
We
are
not
saying
this
is
going
to
be
the
rules
from
here
until
eternity
and
therefore
this
is
the
last
moment
anybody
can
have
any
discussion
about
it.
We
we
advise
the
board
to
accept
these
recommendations
or
whatever
you
decide
this
evening,
we
will
continue
to
evolve
these
things.
I
mean
if
you
look
back
at
the
rules
that
existed
in
at
the
interim
agreement
and
then
the
original
license.
This
is
going
to
evolve
over
time.
Hopefully,
ridership
will
become
a
little
bit
more
sophisticated
they'll.
G
The
rules
of
the
road
will
just
become
you
know,
part
of
what
people
understand,
so
we
can
lighten
them
up,
maybe
in
the
future
or
change
them
or
whatever.
What
I
would
suggest
is
that
we
or
I
would
I
would
ask
that
the
board
consider
voting
these
recommendations
through
tonight.
Allow
us
the
process
to
to
implement
them
again.
G
They
don't
actually
take
effect
affect
you
know
officially,
until
August
gives
us
time
to
really
work
through
the
implementation
phase
of
this,
we
will
be
putting
them
in
progressively
During
the
period,
but
if
there's
good
information
that
comes
to
us,
that
says,
you
know
what
that's
the
stupidest
idea.
You've
ever
come
up
with
I'm
all
ears
right
I
would
like
to
hear
it
all.
We're
trying
to
do
is
really
come
up
with
a
decent
system
in
town.
G
We
haven't
seen
that
to
date
you
heard
some
of
the
frustration
you
know
this
evening
about
about
the
parent
lack
of
action.
Then
we
just
want
to
start
really
moving
ahead
with
these
tonight.
D
A
Yeah
I
would
add,
because
I
appreciate
that
this
is
going
to
be.
You
know
an
evolution
process
as
we
understand
and
see
how
some
of
these
elements
of
this
resolution
are
put
into
place
and,
as
we
see
more
opportunities
for
things
like
Corrals
and
proper
parking,
and
some
of
those
elements
of
the
city
in
a
long-term
way
is
addressing.
A
You
know
over
time
and
I
know
you
know,
as
someone
who
has
reviewed
some
of
the
Staffing
related
to
scooter
enforcement,
that
this
has
been
a
focus
of
particularly
this
spring
I
think
that
I
would
hope.
Two
things
one.
A
The
with
this
resolution
would
come
greater
fine
enforcement,
because
we
are,
you,
know,
spelling
it
out
as
clearly
as
we
can
the
ways
the
scooter
companies
can
encourage
their
Riders
to
you,
know
Park
properly
and
not
have
some
of
these
violations,
and
so
you
know
I
think
it's
an
opportunity
too,
for
the
city
to
really
strengthen
enforcement
in
that
area,
and
then
two
I
truly
am
interested
in
understanding
how
we
reduce
the
speed
from
15
to
10
miles
per
hour.
A
D
A
A
E
All
right,
let
me
get
back
into
my
packet
where
I
need
to
be
So.
Adam
Wilson
works
director
on
behalf
of
Michelle
wall
parking
enforcement,
Parking
Services
director,
basically
this
so
just
to
talk
holistically
about
the
enforcement
program.
As
you
folks
know,
since
last
fall,
we've
been
trying
to
collect
data
in
the
downtown
area,
approximately
Morton,
to
Indiana
third
to
10th
on
the
number
of
scooter
violation,
parking
violations,
we're
encountering
on
the
streets.
E
On
a
given
day,
we've
been
running
two
part-time
employees
for
the
majority
of
that
time
period,
but
we've
had
a
really
hard
time
keeping
these
positions
staffed.
Initially,
it
was
with
temporary
staff
through
Express
Express
Employment.
We
did
some
part-time
staff
that
were
actually
city
employees.
E
We
still
have
jobs
posted
as
to
the
employees,
but
this
is
going
to
back
help
backfill
our
efforts
because
we're
having
a
hard
time
filling
these
positions
as
we
look
into
the
future
and
as
we
go
through
the
updates
of
the
the
resolution
that
was
just
passed,
we're
going
to
be
looking
at
a
more
concrete
Solution
on
how
we're
doing
this
with
the
resources
coming
in
through
those
fees
and
such.
But
this
is
another
contract
with
Express
employment
for
to
trying
to
get
to
office.
E
D
A
We
have
a
motion
in
a
second
Caron
aye
Lloyd
aye
Cox
Deckard
I
motion
passes
next
up.
We
have
sidewalk
closure
requests
from
Artistic
Concrete
design
for
309
East
6th
Street
for
five
days.
K
Jason
Kerr
with
engineering
excuse
me,
Artistic
Concrete
design
is
requesting
that
sidewalk
closure
in
front
of
309
6th
Street
for
this
coming
week,
417
to
421
asking
for
five
days.
It
may
not
take
that
amount.
It's
to
accommodate
work
for
reconstruction,
the
sidewalk
it
is
kind
of
in
poor
shape.
Currently
this
is
just
coming
of
the
property
owner
wanting
to
repair
this
and
get
it
fixed
for
the
city
and
reconstruct
it.
A
D
A
K
Jason
Kerr
with
engineering
again
Gillette,
General
Contractors
is
requesting
lane
closures
and
sidewalk
closures
along
Third,
Street
East
3rd
Street.
This
is
in
front
of
both
their
buildings.
New
apartment
buildings
there
between
April,
17th
and
April
28th
Walther
doing,
is
reconstructing
the
sidewalk
along
Third
Street
they'll
do
a
building
at
a
time,
demolition,
reconstruct
and
then
move
down
that
way.
The
mot
isn't
taking
up
both.
You
know
the
longer
Lane.
It
allows
for
shorter
and
pedestrian
traffic
to
be
easily
accessible
through
that
area.
During
this
time,.
A
K
O
Hi,
it's
Alex
Gray
from
engineering
and
I
want
to
start
off
by
the
April
24th
to
the
28th.
I
have
been
in
contact
with
current
Castle
to
see
if
they
can
push
it
to
after
graduation
and
I
haven't
received
quite
back
yet
and
if
I
believe
Renee
I,
don't
know.
If
she's
on,
she
might
be
able
to
have
an
answer.
O
So
it
won't
be
as
I
guess,
disruptive
for
your
tree
plot
and
everything
of
that
sort
and
then
I
included
both
of
the
existing
and
that
way
you
can
see
which
areas
they're
connecting
into
and
that
way
so,
hopefully
it's
a
little
clearer
I
know
it
can
be
confusing,
because
it's
two
sets
of
plans
and
then
this
is
for
their
small
cell
network
installation.
E
I
I
would
ask
at
this
time
I
see
Renee
with
crown
castles
on
the
call
Renee,
if
you
can
unmute
so
I,
think
there
was
some
email
communication
today
I'm
trying
to
see
if
we
could
push
this
back
to
after
the
weekend
of
May
6th.
Is
there
any
possibility
to
delay
this
a
few
weeks
until
after
graduation
and
IU
second
semester
ends.
E
Okay,
well
I
guess:
I
would
suggest
that
we
give
the
tentative
approval
for
the
April
dates
and
we're
still
going
to
try
to
work
on
getting
this
postponed
a
couple
weeks.
It's
not
ideal
to
have
it
during
these
dates,
but
if,
if
this
is
the
absolute
only
time
they
can
do
it,
we
can
work
with
them
to
try
to
minimize
those
impacts.
O
A
Suspected
that
that
was
the
case
when
I
was
reading
through
I
for
the
the
April
24th
through
28th
dates
is
the
primary
concern
that
might
take
them
longer
and
that
we
may
end
up
in
a
situation
where
we're
edging
into
that
week.
Or
is
there.
E
Week
between
little
five
and
graduation,
so
it's
not
super
concerning,
but
it
is
going
to
be
a
busy
week
in
the
area
up
there.
There
won't
be
a
possibility
for
the
project
to
do
land
closures
the
following
week
or
weekend,
so
we'll
definitely
be
working
very
closely
with
them
to
make
sure
that's
not
and
that
that
is
understood.
Yeah.
D
E
Handle
it
yeah,
so
small
cell
towers
are
completely
different.
These
are
the
fiber
that
runs
to
these
Powers,
the
cellular
network,
but
this
is
a
much
different.
These
are
small
cell
towers,
not
anything
to
do
with
the
fiber
project
or
anything
like
that.
E
Yeah
yeah
completely
separate
and
how
these
facilities
get
installed
are
very
much
dictated
by
state
code
and
how
we
have
to
respond
to
them
so
but
different.
A
D
A
O
Hi,
it's
Alex
Gray
again
from
engineering.
This
one
is
a
land
closure
from
on
East
10th
Street
from
North
Indiana
Avenue
to
North
Woodlawn
Avenue.
It
is
Directional
Boring
for
new
decked,
similar
to
what
was
on
East
17th
Street,
and
this
is
also
for
their
small
cell
network
installation
and
for
this
one
it
was
originally
earlier,
but
they
have
agreed
to
push
it
back
to
after
the
graduation.
I
Ed
she
said:
muted
Renee,
can
you
hear
us?
You
are
unmuted.
