F
Thank
you,
chair
reich
and
committee
members.
Thank
you
for
a
few
extra
moments
during
this
committee
meeting.
This
is
the
last
transportation
public
works
committee
meeting
of
this
term.
F
It
is
also
the
last
transportation
public
works
committee
meeting
being
chaired
by
council
member
reich,
and
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
moment
to
say
thank
you
for
your
times
chair
and
I
thought
to
do
that
properly.
F
There
were
two
public
works
directors
that
you
worked
closely
with,
and
this
might
be
a
surprise.
I
hope
it's
a
surprise,
but
I've
asked
them
to
join
us
this
morning
or
this
afternoon
to
say
a
couple
of
words.
So
first
I'd
like
to
introduce
robin
hutcheson
former
public
works
director.
G
Thank
you
brett,
and
it's
really
quite
something
to
be
back
here
in
the
setting
in
this
meeting
and
on
this
day
with
you,
chair
reich,
and
I
really
appreciate
this
opportunity
to
note
this
moment
and
to
have
the
chance
to
say
you
know
thank
you
for
the
work
that
you
did
for
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
thank
you
for
your
support
and
mentorship
for
me
personally,
there's
really
two
things
that
were
so
notable
about
your
work
to
me
and
the
first
is
your
passion
for
the
work,
this
city,
that
city
your
city,
wow.
G
I
have
to
change
the
way
I
talk
about
things,
new
york,
city,
city,
a
city
that
I
miss
deeply,
is
greener
and
safer
because
of
your
work.
G
You
need
only
look
really
not
very
far
to
find
a
place
where
your
values
of
stormwater
management
and
using
that
to
create
community
and
create
a
safer
environment
is
evident.
It's
all
over
the
place,
and
now
it
is
ingrained
in
the
department
as
a
standard
of
practice
and
that's
really
your
work,
and
that
is
the
passion
that
you
brought
to
it.
G
G
You
are
our
most
frequent
flyer
on
field
tours
and
connections
to
the
work
that
people
were
doing
on
the
ground,
and
I
know
that
the
entire
you
know,
1100
person
organization,
felt
your
support
because
you
were
physically
present
so
many
times
to
see
the
work
that
creates
a
motivated,
dedicated
and
loyal
staff
that
will
work
hard
for
the
people
of
minneapolis
and
that's
a
lasting
legacy.
G
So
you
know
thank
you
for
for
making
public
works
so
strong
over
the
last
many
many
years,
four
and
a
half
of
which
I
I
had
the
privilege
of
being
a
part
of
I'm
really
grateful.
I
got
a
chance
to
just
personally
say
these
things
to
you
and
about
you
and
I'll
just
say,
thanks
to
brett
for
inviting
me
to
be
here
today.
Thanks
again.
F
Thank
you
robin
and
then
our
second
surprise
special
guest
of
the
afternoon,
I'd
like
to
introduce
mr
steve
cocky,
to
say
a
few
words.
H
H
However,
what
what
I
really
appreciated
was
you
know
that
just
your
working
style,
your
your
your
calm,
your
steady,
your
thoughtful
approach
to
problem
solving.
You
know
whether
we
are
working
on
long-range
policy
issues
or
items
that
needed
immediate
action.
Your
demeanor
never
changed.
You
always
had
this.
You
were
always
just
a
patient
listener.
You
know
you
gave
great
advice
and
suggestions,
and
then
you
were
yeah
just
you
know
very
comfortable
making
the
decisions
that
needed
to
be
made
so
just
kevin.
It
was
wonderful.
Working
with
you
and
you'll
be
you'll.
F
Thank
you
steve,
and
you
know
really.
I
I
knew
that
both
of
robin
and
steve
would
do
the
best
job
of
saying.
Thank
you
I'll
just
add.
On
eight
years
as
chair,
we've
brought
about
3
000
items
through
this
committee.
In
that
time
it's
170
meetings,
that's
also
170
agenda
settings
and,
as
you
know,
and
as
as
was
mentioned,
we
spend
a
lot
of
time
together.
F
You
know
your
willingness
to
be
a
sounding
board
and
help
us
through
complicated
issues
and
always
forward
looking
if
something
didn't
go
right
on
a
day
like
today,
you
know
we
would
talk
afterwards
and
it
was
always
about
how
can
we
do
better,
and
I
really
appreciate
that-
and
I
just
want
to
say
on
behalf
of
the
public
works
department.
Thank
you
for
everything
and
I'd
also
like
to
note
you
know.
F
Other
outgoing
committee
members
council,
president,
better
council,
member
fletcher,
councilmember
gordon
you've
all
been
again
interested
in
our
work
and
support
of
our
of
the
department,
and
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
that.
B
Well,
thank
you
brett.
I'm
going
to,
I
noticed
council
president
bender
is
in
the
queue,
so
I
will
honor
that
request
for
the
floor.
I
Thanks,
mr
chair,
I
wasn't
sure
if
you
needed
a
minute,
so
I
thought
I'd
give
you
one
what
a
wonderful
surprise
from
our
interim
director,
and
I
you
know.
I
was
glad
that
you
did
that.
I
also
wanted
to
mark.
You
know
this
last
of
our
meetings
together.
I
This
committee
will
have
huge
turnover
next
term
at
a
really
critical
time
where
we
have
spent
the
last
eight
years
putting
in
place
some
of
the
most
groundbreaking
policies
in
the
country
that
focus
all
of
our
resources
that
go
into
infrastructure,
to
meet
our
goals
of
race,
equity
and
climate
justice,
and
that's
not
a
given.
That's,
not
a
given
standard
practice
in
american
cities.
So
you
know
I
just
wanted
to
note
the
really
incredible
leadership
that
we've
seen
from
our
chair,
who
has
been
the
chair
of
this
committee.
I
My
whole
time
in
office
for
the
eight
years
I've
served
and
the
members
of
this
committee,
but
also
the
staff
who
will
really
be
carrying
this
work
forward.
I
mean
the
work
has
been
so
ingrained
in
the
day-to-day
operations
of
the
department,
of
course,
from
the
folks
that
we
see
in
these
meetings
regularly.
I
The
leadership
of
the
department
and
the
directors,
the
division
directors,
but
I
also
know
just
from
my
interactions
as
a
council
member
in
my
ward,
you
know
how
much
passion
there
is
throughout
the
department
for
the
direction
that
the
city
has
been
going.
You
know
how
how
much
talent
we
have
in
this
department
that
you've
all
cultivated
through
the
time
that
I've
been
in
office
each
of
the
directors
that
we
heard
from
and
our
interim
director
now
brett
jelly.
I
So
I
just
really
want
to
thank
our
staff
in
this
department
for
being
part
of
a
team
that
was
just
so
inspirational
to
work
with
as
a
policy
maker,
and
you
know
anytime,
I
feel
a
little
nervous
about
the
work
I
think
of
all
the
people
that
I
know
in
the
department
who
are
going
to
be
there
to
make
sure
that
you
know
we
really
do
what
we
said.
We
were
going
to
do
that.
I
We
really
do
change
and
make
the
difficult
decisions
that
are
required
to
actually
make
progress
toward
race,
equity
and
climate
justice.
In
our
city
I
mean
it's
easy
to
put
those
words
on
paper.
It's
harder
to
make
those
changes
in
the
actual
street,
and
I
know
that
each
of
you
come
to
work
every
day.
You
know
willing
to
roll
up
your
sleeves
and
make
that
happen
and
have
all
the
you
know,
thousands
of
conversations
that
go
into
building
our
infrastructure,
which
is
one
of
the
most
impactful
things
in
people's
day-to-day
lives.
I
Can
you
safely
get
to
where
you
need
to
go?
Is
there
a
way
to
get
to
your
job,
to
school,
to
health
care?
All
of
that?
It's
something
that
people
maybe
don't
think
about
every
day
if
it's
working
well
for
them,
but
it's
something
that
certainly
people
think
about
if
they're
facing
dangerous
conditions
or
super
long
commutes
on
inefficient
transit.
I
It's
why
we
hear
so
much
about
it
whenever
we
do
public
engagement,
so
it's
been
an
honor
to
work
with
all
of
you
and
I'm
so
happy
to
see
the
faces
of
the
directors
and
get
the
chance
to
also
thank
chair,
reich
for
all
of
his
service
and
leadership.
B
Well,
thank
you
for
that,
council,
president
and
and
yeah.
You
summarize
well
and
you,
as
you
often
do
the
importance
of
what
this
department
or
you
know,
actually,
it's
a
consolation
of
rather
large
departments
under
one
umbrella,
somewhat
unique
to
minneapolis
and
yeah.
The
work
is
super
important,
oftentimes
unsung,
so
to
be
a
part
of
that,
of
course,
is
a
very,
very
special
and
working
with
you
has
been
quite
incredible
as
well.
B
You
are
a
thought
leader,
particularly
in
policy,
particularly
on
frameworks,
but
also
knowing
how
things
get
implemented
as
well,
and
you
were
known
as
a
leader
in
this
area
before
you
had
an
election
certificate.
I
imagine
you'll
remain
a
leader
in
a
voice
moving
forward
and
and
I
believe,
the
legacy
of
the
work
in
certain
policies.
B
Big
policies,
like
you,
said
nation
leading
policies,
will
have
an
impact
here
for
many
years,
but
I
think
it's
going
to
have
an
impact
nationwide,
part
of
being
a
thought
leader
and
a
implementation
leader
as
a
community,
is
that
others
will
follow
because
we'll
prove
it
works
and
works
well
for
people
so
to
work
with
you,
particularly
as
vice
chair
of
this
and
the
person
who
sat
on
the
steering
committees
working
with
staff
to
put
those
policies
in
place.
B
Those
are
the
meetings
that
I
always
look
forward
to
and
and
your
passion
for
it
certainly
added
a
certain
special
flavor
to
it
all,
as
I
knew
it
would.
I
remember
first
meeting
you
at
the
vac
committee,
when
you
were
on
that
commission
as
a
citizen,
and
you
were
certainly
the
shining
voice
then-
and
you
are
now
and
we'll
be
moving
forward,
I'm
pretty
certain
of
that.
So
I
don't
forget.
B
Thank
you,
it's
very,
very
touching
to
have
them
not
just
say
the
words,
but
just
to
see
their
faces
and
look
forward
to
actually
seeing
them,
hopefully
in
person
at
some
point
when
we
have
that
luxury,
but
working
with
them
to
work
with
such
esteemed
leaders
for
such
an
important
apartment
will
always
be
something
that
I'll
look
back
on.
You
know
cocky
or
mr
stabilization.
B
You
took
this
to
a
place
where
it
could
go
and
robin
hopkins
came
in
and
took
it
to
those
places
to
what
could
be
and
what
will
be
again.
The
nation
will
be
watching
what
we
do
as
leaders
in
these
areas
because
of
the
work
you
do
and
to
work
alongside
such
model
public
servants,
you
know
what
a
what
a
gift,
what
a
blessing
and
what
an
honor.
So
I
thank
you
for
that,
and
thank
you
for
being
here
really
touching.
It's
losing
a
little
bit
of
my
cool
demeanor.
B
I
can
tell,
and
mr
jelly
it's
been
working
great
working
with
you,
you
are
the
you
are
the
guy.
I
don't
even
know
if
you
even
need
a
title
as
long
as
you're
in
public
works,
we
know
you're
the
guy,
who
makes
a
tick
you're
kind
of
everywhere,
all
the
time
and
and
you've
been
a
stellar
interim
director.
We've
not
had
to
be
too
impatient
in
terms
of
finding
a
permanent
director,
mostly
because
you
just
keep
the
ship
going
and
you
do
it
because
you
know
the
ship
better
than
anyone.
B
I
know
every
little
piece
everyone
unfold,
you
probably
have
an
awareness
of
that
persecution
of
the
of
the
operation,
that
is
just
unmatched,
and
it's
just
really
cool
to
work
with
a
guy
like
you
to
be.
To
be
frank,
it
just
really
is
you
bring
a
light
touch
to
it,
along
with
all
the
smarts
and
and
of
course
this
is
a
committee
I
don't
want
to
belabor.
The
point
too
much
is
really
abusing
the
agenda
in
my
opinion,
but
peggy
manchin.
B
If
that
doesn't
go,
get
noticed
after
all
these
years
of
making
sure
that
all
of
this
work,
as
mr
jelly
pointed
out,
it's
an
amazing
daunting
amount
of
work
when
you
think
about
it,
not
just
in
terms
of
the
impacts
of
when
it
gets
out
there
for
people
and
serving
community,
but
just
the
fact
that
it
gets
managed,
managed
well
without
any
interruption
is
certainly
certainly
a
feed
in
itself
and
yeah.
B
B
If
this
is
the
department
for
which
the
work,
if
it
didn't
happen,
we
wouldn't
have
a
city
period
in
any
way,
shape
or
form,
but
we
wouldn't
have
the
work
without
the
people
who
do
it
and
the
fact
that
I've
been
able
to
meet
people
in
the
field
doing
their
thing.
B
I
always
found
great
joy
in
that,
but
most
of
the
joy
is
not
just
seeing
the
you
know:
excellent
operation,
the
excellent
execution
and,
of
course,
knowing
how
meaningful
it
is
to
people
in
their
livelihoods
in
the
health
of
the
city,
is
that
oftentimes
I'll
have
a
conversation
and
the
pride
that
emanates
from
someone.
Be
it
the
person
who
knows
how
to
operate
those
super
complicated
street
sweepers
they're
much
more
complicated
than
they
look.
B
Let
me
tell
you
and
to
the
people
who
do
all
the
other
work
out
in
the
field
and
the
managers
who
respond
to
them.
The
people
who
set
those
budgets.
I
always
sense
that
a
moment
of
pride
that
emanates
from
it
from
the
actual
individuals,
the
actual
public
servants
themselves
and
to
me
that
is
what
really
makes
minneapolis
shine.
B
Is
that
pride
from
the
workers
who
do
the
work
not
just
to
get
it
done,
but
to
do
it
well
to
do
it
exemplary
and
to
have
been
playing
a
supportive
role
in
that
in
that
realm
to
me,
is
always
the
proof
of
its
importance.
So
I
thank
all
of
those
workers
who
I
got
to
meet
or
didn't
get
to
meet,
but
certainly
appreciate
the
work.
F
We
are
good.
Thank
you,
chair
right.
B
Thank
you
and
to
the
formal
discussion
item.
We
have
complete
streets
policy,
update
mr
jelly,
who
will
be
giving
that
presentation.
F
Chair
right
committee
members,
let
me
I'd
like
to
introduce
katie
white
transportation
planner
with
transportation
planning
and
programming
who
will
give
an
overview.
Thank
you.
C
J
Get
out
of
the
next
slide
cali
thanks
so
much
so
today.
Today's
presentation
will
cover
some
background
stemming
from
the
transportation
action
plan,
the
technical
work
that
has
gone
into
the
consideration
of
what
is
being
updated.
Today,
the
content
of
the
new
draft
policy
and
a
visual
graphic
of
our
new
model
hierarchy.
J
First,
it's
important
as
with
many
discussion
items
in
the
transportation
planning
and
programming
division,
that
this
work
that
we're
presenting
today
is
integrated
fully
with
the
transportation
action
plan.
A
transportation
action
plan
set
these
goals
for
transportation,
specifically
we're
also
taking
into
consideration
other
city
policies
and
plans
that
developed
and
been
adopted
recently.
The
tap
goals
are,
of
course,
climate
safety,
equity,
prosperity,
mobility
and
active
partnerships
and
all
work
products
that
we
create
are
created
with
these
goals
in
mind,.
J
So
the
transportation
action
plan
was
adopted
just
in
december
2020.
Nearly
a
year
ago,
there
was
several
rounds
of
engagement,
three
rounds
of
engagement,
leading
up
to
that
adoption
over
the
course
of
2018
to
2020,
and
we
got
a
lot
of
feedback
during
that
time
about
what
the
goals
for
transportation
and
the
city
should
be.
J
One
of
the
pieces
of
feedback
that
we
got
was
a
lot
of
positive
feedback
on
the
complete
streets
policy,
as
a
scandal
document
heard
a
lot
from
a
lot
of
people
that
that
was
an
important
document
and
something
that
should
be
retained
and
it
needed
to
be
enhanced
because,
according
to
the
feedback,
we
got
during
the
tap
process,
there
just
been
too
many
developing
trends
in
transportation
and
urban
transportation
since
2016,
and
that
that
policy
was
not
reflective
of
the
changes
that
we've
seen
since
then,
specifically.
J
Micro,
mobility
and
smaller
delivery
vehicles
and
their
impact
on
space
and
the
use
of
the
space
was
something
that,
even
though
it
wasn't
included
in
the
document,
it
was
something
that
we
were
wrestling
with
as
a
city
and
the
document
would
benefit
from
including
some
of
that
in
the
document
to
be
effective.
J
So
the
transportation
action
plan
did
a
lot
of
engagement
and
we
wanted
to
honor
the
engagement
that
we
received
during
that
feedback
process.
We
didn't
want
to
open
up
and
start
from
scratch.
We
wanted
to
say
here's
important
feedback
that
we
got
from
the
tab
and
we
can
carry
it
forward
and
start
the
update
to
the
big
streets
of
policy.
J
So
when
this
work
kicked
off
about
a
year
ago,
there
were
a
couple
of
different
stakeholder
groups
that
we
engaged
to
guide
the
work
of
the
update
process,
one
of
which
was
the
tap
steering
committee
itself
to
ensure
consistency
with
the
principles
that
were
adopted
in
that
plan.
We
also
engaged
a
work
group
specific
to
this
to
get
into
the
nitty-gritty
details
of
the
update
itself.
J
So,
recognizing
that
we
had
this
baseline
engagement,
that
was
provided
through
the
tap
process,
we
asked
our
new
work
group.
What
other
issues
should
be
adopted
or
changed
in
an
updated,
complete
student's
policy
document
and
their
suggestions
included
construction
impacts.
Winter
maintenance
impacts
the
exemption
process.
At
the
end
of
the
document,
there
was
strong
consensus
that
we
should
define
what
a
complete
speech
process
is
and
they
recommended
adding
a
section
on
interpreting
our
modal
hierarchy.
J
So
I'll
step
through
some
of
these
title
area,
subject
areas
one
by
one
over
the
next
couple
of
slides
for
freight,
the
new
policy
will
treat
large
trucks
and
smaller
delivery
vehicles
differently.
This
is
the
difference
between
what
we
typically
think
of
as
a
semi
truck
or
smaller
delivery
vehicles,
and
sometimes
these
are
even
personal
vehicles
being
used
for
delivery
like
bike
squad,
but
smaller
delivery
vehicles,
like
amazon
bands
that
you
see
a
lot
more
of
all
over
the
city
in.
J
The
key
differentiator
here
is
that
larger
vehicles
are
managed
through
design
and
the
smaller
vehicles
are
being
managed
through
designing
and
operations
as
well.
So
for
brainstorm
water
infrastructure,
the
new
policy
will
describe
current
policy
requirements.
We
do
have
a
new
permit
through
the
mpca,
which
requires
green
storm
water
management.
On
many
other
construction
projects.
J
We
talk
in
a
little
bit
of
detail
about
potential
treatments
available.
Some
great
stormwater
infrastructure
treatments
are
above
ground
invisible
and
take
space
in
the
right
of
way,
but
some
are
below
ground
and
provide
benefits
without
street
users
being
aware
of
them
and
again,
I'm
pointing
to
the
street
design
guide
to
integrate,
restore
water
infrastructure
into
design
features.
J
Micro
mobility
has
now
been
incorporated
into
this
draft
policy
document.
The
new
policy
will
use
definitions
and
treatments,
as
outlined
in
the
transportation
action
plan,
found
in
the
bicycling
chapter
and
treat
micro
mobility
largely
similar
to
bicycles.
This
is
consistent
with
state
and
local
ordinances
and
laws.
J
Construction
impacts
were
discussed
briefly
in
the
original
policy
and
are
updated
here.
The
new
policy
will
provide
the
same
level
of
support
for
people
walking
and
biking
during
construction
as
during
non-construction
conditions,
and
the
language
here
is
very
much
aligned
with
street
operation
strategy.
Nine
in
a
lot
of
cases
on
this
slide
and
subsequent
slides,
we
don't
want
to
create
new
language.
You
know
the
tap
is
very
new
itself
just
about
12
months
old
and
there
was
no
need
to
duplicate
that
effort.
J
J
Winter
maintenance.
In
the
new
policy,
we
will
continue
to
highlight
the
importance
of
and
prioritizing
winter
maintenance
as
a
key
element
of
access
for
people
walking
and
biking.
This
aligns
with
the
winter
maintenance
action
actions
in
the
tap
in
the
walking
and
biking
sections
and
aligns
with
the
2018
bicycle
with
the
administrative
return
movement
study,
which
again
points
back
to
walking
and
biking
sections
of
the
app
as
well.
J
Level
of
service
in
the
existing
2016
policy,
there
includes
the
phrase
that
we,
while
providing
acceptable
levels
of
service
to
all
modes
level
of
service,
is
a
technical
term
that
reflects
largely
vehicle
congestion
conditions
and
the
original
policy
said
that
changes
can
be
made
to
the
roads
while
providing
acceptable
levels
of
service
to
all
modes.
J
That
language
is
out
of
date
and
consideration
of
the
transportation
action
plan
adopted
last
year,
and
so
we
recommend
removing
the
phrase
while
providing
the
acceptable
weapons
of
service
to
all
mode
almost
and
instead
we
have
recommended
adding
language
about
the
importance
of
traffic
analysis
and
measurement
tools
to
understand
the
impacts
of
decisions
and
we've
also
added
language.
Recognizing
that
increases
in
delay
are
not
the
driving
force
of
design
and
operations
decision
making.
J
Again.
This
is
an
alignment
with
previously
adopted
by
the
gender
tab.
We
have
also
added
a
definition
of
the
complete
streets
process.
This
was
omitted
in
the
original
2016
version
and
I'd
like
to
state
that
this
is
very
heavily
borrowed
from
the
smart
growth
america
definition
of
what
a
complete
speech
process
is.
We
have
modified
the
language
slightly
to
be
more
specific
to
a
city
context.
J
We
changed
a
couple
of
words
around
and
sentences
have
moved
in
locations,
but
the
language
is
very
similar
to
smart
growth.
America
and
I
do
want
to
give
them
credit
for
coming
up
with
that
definition.
I
also
want
to
state.
It
may
not
have
been
clear
in
the
original
2016
version,
but
as
it
was
true
in
the
2016
virgin,
when
we
talk
about
a
complete
street
process,
we're
talking
about
a
process,
not
an
outcome.
J
J
The
previous
completes,
the
2016
compute
streets
policy
ended
with
an
exemptions
process
to
state
that
some
projects
may
not
require
to
follow
the
the
complete
states
process.
We
are
recommending
removing
that
language
in
the
five
years
that
we've
had
a
complete
streets
of
policy.
No
projects
have
gone
through
an
exemptions
process
and
that's
because
the
company
experiences
talks
about
the
recipient,
making
process
itself
and
every
project
goes
through
that
syllabus
and
which
was
unnecessary.
J
J
J
We
have
maintained
most
of
the
components
of
the
previous
graphic,
but
added
to
it
to
reflect
our
modal
hierarchy
and
to
reflect
modern
conditions
that
have
changed
since
the
2016
version.
J
We
keep
at
the
top
pedestrians,
and
here
pedestrians
are
grouped
here
and
take
the
different
types
of
pedestrians
that
you
might
see
in
the
city
and
we're
including
rolling.
Sometimes
you
use
the
terms
of
walking
and
rolling
to
change
your
brain
together.
So
we
are
including
those
using
mobility,
aids
individualization
of
this
job,
and
this
represents
that
pedestrians,
those
walking
and
rolling,
are
the
highest
priority
for
world
users
in
our
city.
J
The
next
tier
down
from
that
the
original
graphic
had
those
biking
and
using
transit,
and
we
have
added
micro
mobility
to
that
same
tier,
not
changing
the
location
of
most
biking
and
taking
transit,
and
it's
clear
in
the
language
that
we're
these
are
not
competing
uses
but
they're
treated
equally
and
giving
you
full
weight.
Making
design
decisions
below
that
we
have
vehicles
and
a
small
truck
to
repres
represent
small
plates,
even
though
it
might
not
always
look
like
that
truck.
J
That
is
illustrated
there
and
then
large
freight
below
that
your
traditional
semi-trucks
and
I
should
say
that
each
of
these
modes
represents
all
forms
of
these
users,
so
this
includes
you
know,
bicycles
that
are
moving
and
parked.
This
includes
cars
that
have
one
or
more
than
one
person
in
them.
We
did
not
differentiate
between
those
types
of
users
and
across
the
entire
spectrum.
We
have
a
green
storm
water
infrastructure.
J
B
Thank
you
for
the
presentation.
Are
there
any
questions
for
staff
regarding
what
was
presented.
A
Thank
you
yeah,
and
I
appreciate
this
and
I
appreciate
the
update,
that's
happening.
I
really
am
glad
that
we
kind
of
have
the
process
in
there
and
it's
more
obvious
and
people
understand
the
decision
making
that
we
go
through.
A
I
I
appreciated
getting
a
briefing
on
this
earlier
too,
and
I,
like
the
new
graphic,
although
I
was
a
little
bit
concerned
that
it
highlights
storm
water
when
we
talk
about
the
green
infrastructure,
but
I
think
that
was
something
that
was
missing
was
kind
of
the
holistic
infrastructure
and
storm
water
makes
complete
sense
because
it's
public
works
and
they're
working
on
it
and
we
can
claim
trees.
J
Yeah,
chair
and
council
member
gordon,
that
process
is
not
laid
out
specifically
in
this
complete
streets
policy,
but
the
considerations
for
any
project
in
public
works.
Take
you
know
that
kind
of
feedback
into
consideration.
J
A
And
some
of
us
might
recall
when
we
wanted
that
north
north
side
greenway
what
a
challenging
project
that
was
and
still
probably
is
to
actually
implement
and
create
in
terms
of
that
effort.
So
I'll
just
highlight
that,
as
maybe
some
to
do
work
that
if
we
can
ever
grapple
with
that
in
the
future,
it
would
probably
benefit
the
city
to
come
up
with
a
better
clearer
understanding
of
why
we
would
ever
want
to
do
that
and
how,
on
and
I'll.
A
Also
just
note
since
we
were
raving
about
chair
reich
this
complete
streets
policy
was
one
of
the
biggest
pieces
of
work.
I
think
that
we've
accomplished
in
the
last
eight
years
or
so
kevin
and
it's
great
to
see
this
getting
updated
and
coming
forward
now
and
thinking
that
this
will
live
on
into
the
future.
So
we're
counting
on
those
of
you
remaining
to
keep
make
sure
that
we
keep
refining
and
perfecting
this
policy
because
it's
really
brought.
I
think,
a
lot
of
benefits
to
the
city.
K
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
thank
you
to
all
the
public
work
staff
who
have
worked
on
this
over
many
years
to
get
this
policy
to
where
it
is
and
to
katie.
For
this
presentation,
I
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
really
terrific
content
here
and
I
think
especially
I'll
just
echo.
K
You
know,
council
member
gordon's
comments
and
really
the
comments
of
the
visiting
ex-directors
of
this
department
in
in
noting
this
is
a
real
accomplishment
of
the
last
couple
of
terms
of
of
tpw,
both
of
the
incredible
staff
work,
that's
gone
into
it
and
and
an
accomplishment
of
this
committee
and
and
of
its
chair
to
really
create
a
really
strong
policy
framework
and
policy
foundation.
K
I
think,
especially
as
we
are,
you
know,
contemplating
the
implementation
of
question
one
on
the
ballot
and
and
a
shift
in
the
question
of
how
decisions
are
made
to
already
have
a
very
strong
policy
foundation
to
be
clear
about
what
what
policies
should
be
guiding
staff's
actions
and
should
be
guiding
the
mayor's
execution
of
of
the
policy
established
by
the
council.
I
think,
is
really
something
that's
going
to
pay
dividends.
K
You
know
moving
forward
and
I'm
really
glad
we've
been
able
to
create
this
kind
of
a
policy
foundation
and
framework
for
the
next
council
to
build
on
and
and
to
start
from,
so
that
we
don't
have
to
reinvent
the
wheel
or
wonder
sort
of
what
direction
the
city
is
going.
We
know
we
know
where
we're
going
and
and
and
and
we've
set
a
strong
course
that
I
think
will
make
the
city
safer
and
more
accessible
for
everybody.
K
So
thank
you
for
this
presentation
and
and
for
all
of
the
work,
that's
gone
into
getting
us
to
a
place
where
we
have
a
transportation
action
plan
and
a
complete
streets
policy
that
really
reflect
our
city's
values.
B
Thanks
for
highlighting
the
power
of
policy
and
its
importance,
councilman
fletcher
and,
as
you
know,
given
the
word
that
you
represent,
where
the
intensity
of
use
and
the
intensity
of
interests,
if
you
don't
have
strong
guidance,
it's
even
more
complicated
than
it
normally
would
be,
and
you've
always
been
very
clear
to
point
point
that
out
in
a
very
real
way,
project
by
project.
I
I
I'll
repeat
some
of
what
has
been
said,
but
I
did
you
know
I
just
wanted
to
note.
You
know
this
is
one
of
the
first
things
I
worked
on
as
a
as
a
new
council
member
together
with
you,
mr
chair
and
and
councilmember
gordon.
I
I
think
after
a
number
of
meetings
it
was
customer
reich
and
gordon
myself
and
councilmember
were
sami
meeting
repeatedly
with
staff,
and
I
think
robin
garwood
just
took
a
bunch
of
notes
and
information
and
conversations
from
those
meetings
and
actually
drafted
the
policy
that
became
the
basis
for
our
our
adopted
complete
streets
policy.
I
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
councilmember,
gordon
and
his
aide,
robin
garwood
for
this
and
all
the
work
that
they've
done
to
lead
on
transportation
and
climate
in
our
city.
You
know
I
have
some
concerns
that,
with
the
passage
of
question
one,
that
no
matter
what
the
council
says,
the
mayor
can
just
ignore
our
adopted
policy
and
and
direct
staff
to
do
something
else,
and
it
will
take
transparency.
I
You
know,
I
don't
know
if
anyone
watches
our
meetings,
but
the
bicycle
advisory
committee
and
the
pedestrian
advisory
committee
and
anyone
who
cares
about
transportation,
equity
and
street
safety
and
climate
justice
really
needs
to
pay
attention
to
the
project
by
project
decisions
that
are
getting
made
and
how
that
governance
is
applying
to
streets
decisions
to
make
sure
that
all
of
the
work
that
we
have
done
over
the
past
decade
to
pass
these
policies
actually
get
implemented
in
the
projects
going
forward,
especially
with
the
change
in
governance.
I
So
I
hope
that
happens
because
it
was
not
a
small
amount
of
effort
to
pass
these
policies
and
it
it
could
be
undone
so
easily.
Through
you
know,
thousands
of
little
decisions
and
streets
across
the
city
passing
the
complete
streets
policy
was
a
watershed,
change
for
our
city
as
someone
who
attended
meetings
as
a
resident
and
a
stakeholder
and
then
as
a
council
member
both
before
and
after
we
had
this
policy
in
place.
The
way
that
we
talked
about
streets
as
a
city
changed
the
values
with
which
we
approached
street
decision
making
change.
I
You
know
the
public
process
changed
to
go
from
a
project
by
project
decision
making
process
heavily
driven
by
each
council
member
separately
across
the
city
to
a
more
holistic
city-wide.
You
know
values-driven
process
that
creates
an
actual
network
across
the
city
that
changed
dramatically
after
the
passage
of
the
complete
streets
policy.
So
you
know
it's
a
four-page
document,
it's
very
simple
and
straightforward,
but
it
what
matters
is
how
it's
implemented
over
time,
and
you
know
those
early
meetings
when
staff
first
came
I'll,
never
forget
with
the
posters.
That
said,
we
have
a
complete
streets
policy.
I
We
have
this
triangle
pyramid
thing
that
says
we
prioritize
the
safety
of
the
most
vulnerable
residents
in
our
community
when
we
design
streets.
That
was
not
an
easy
thing
for
staff
to
stay
at
meetings
in
a
city
where
people
were
really
used
to
cars
being
the
primary
driving
factor,
cars
moving
fast
through
our
neighborhoods
as
fast
as
possible.
I
That
was
the
driving
feature
of
street
design
in
our
city
for
decades
and
for
you
know
those
staff,
sean
murphy
and
don
flom
and
the
planners
who
came
out
to
those
meetings
in
the
early
years
and
said
you
know
what
we
are
going
to
prioritize
the
safety
of
the
most
vulnerable
people
in
our
city
over
the
convenience
of
cars
moving
as
quickly
as
humanly
possible
through
our
neighborhoods.
I
I
So
many
people
in
our
community
are
cut
off
from
those
because
it's
not
safe,
it
is
simply
not
safe
to
get
around
it
isn't
safe
for
children.
It
isn't
safe
for
people
who
have
any
kind
of
disability,
it
isn't
safe
for
so
many
people
trying
to
get
around
our
community.
It's
not
acceptable,
so
we
have
the
framework
and
the
groundwork
here.
I
I'm
so
excited
that
it's
being
even
strengthened
as
we
speak,
and
I'm
really
really
hopeful
that
that
value
will
continue
and
those
details
that
matter
so
much
will
will
continue
to
follow
the
direction
of
this
policy.
Thank
you.
B
Thank
you,
council
president
bender
anyone
else.
I
see
councilmember
gordon
had
a
hip
hip,
hooray,
three
cheers
for
robin
garwood
very
appropriate.
Did
you
want
to
add
to
that
counselor
gordon,
or
was
that
your
intent.
A
If
you're
there
go
look
out,
and
none
of
us
are,
I
guess
I
can't
tell,
but
when
you're
there
next
time,
look
at
what
we've
done
to
fourth
right
outside
city
hall
there,
which
has
a
protected,
curb,
separated,
bikeway,
now
narrowed
lanes
much
wide
in
sidewalks,
it's
the
one
side
of
city
hall
that
actually
is
pedestrian
friendly
now.
Well,
maybe
the
light
rail
side
is
pretty
good
too.
A
So
we
can
say
the
second
side,
but
it's
just
fantastic,
and
so
it
does
tell
us
that
those
wrestling
matches
we
had
with
each
other
the
difficulty
of
wrapping
our
heads
around
this
and
then
the
challenge
of
going
to
those
meetings
and
and
advocating
and
saying
what
it
is
which
I
would
suggest.
A
And
now
we
even
have
these
red
strips
on
some
of
our
streets
right
for
these
bus
bus
lanes,
I
mean
isn't
that
amazing,
and
so
how
far
we've
come.
So
it's
really
has
made
a
big
difference
and
I
just
wanted
to
celebrate
some
of
that
and
acknowledge
some
of
that.
So
thanks.
B
Thank
you,
councilmember
gordon.
Anyone
else
wish
to
make
comment
or
have
questions
for
staff
per
the
presentation.
B
Not
seen
any
additional
requests
for
that,
I
will
just
echo
not
only
just
the
words
from
my
colleagues
who
made
comment,
but
they're
visible,
visceral
excitement
around
this
policy.
It's
it's
it's.
It
says
a
lot
that
it's
engendered,
that
level
of
sincere
response
and
excitement
and
hope
for
what
we
do
moving
forward
and
so
I'll
echo
that,
but
also
just
so
just
reflecting
on
it.
You
know
I've
thought
about
where
we've
gone
and
I
believe
council
president
bender
really
expressed
that
very
well
and
thoroughly.
B
You
know
where
we've
been
and
where
we're
going.
You
know
that
pivot
point
is
so
significant.
This
part
of
me
always
frames
it
in
the
sense
of
a
little.
B
The
old
advocate
me
or
early
council
member,
be
so
jealous
of
the
current
situation
because
we
used
to
fight
so
hard
for
certain
what
we
considered
special
amenities
or
extra
treatment
or
pushing
the
envelope
as
it
were,
and
now
in
many
cases
it's
sort
of
out
of
the
box
standard
practice,
and
so
it's
just
like
wow,
the
ease
of
which
you
can
now
even
think
further
in
terms
of
the
safety
of
our
not
only
just
a
specific
project
but,
as
you
know,
customer
president
bender
put
it,
you
know
the
network
needs.
B
We
still
have
a
lot
of
work
to
do,
but
this
will
be,
I
think,
solid
guidance
to
complete
that
work.
And
I
a
strong
believer.
You
don't
create
policies
for
them
to
sit
on
the
shelf.
They
they
need
to
be
living
documents
in
the
field
period
without
question.
Obviously,
there's
always
context
and
nuance
per
per
every
situation.
Stakeholder
interest
always
has
to
have
a
meaningful
part
of
the
process,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
the
framework's
there,
that's
where
the
conversation
lives
and
that's
where
projects
get
measured
by
details
can
be
details.
B
It's
a
good
policy
match
that
with
the
transportation
action
plan,
and
we
have
some
really
strong
guidance
in
minneapolis
and
noteworthy
in
the
other
plan
that
equity,
although
it
may
be
not
highlighted
as
strongly
in
this
plan,
is
certainly
a
key
feature.
The
action
plan
and
again,
I
think,
we're
leaders
in
that
respect,
but
it
only
will
be
proven
if
it's
really
reflected
in
our
priorities
in
funding
and
implementation
of
projects.
B
With
that
lens
in
mind,
it
just
needs
to
actually
be
in
place,
in
addition
to
other
condition,
needs
and
the
other
kind
of
parameters
that
we
have
for
priorities
and
projects.
So
that'll
be
my
little
addition
to
the
sermon
any
other
questions.
If
not,
I
would
move
this
item
and
have
the
clerk
call
the
role.
A
C
A
B
B
F
Thank
you,
chair
reich.
I
think
ms
elkins
almost
came
through
my
computer
screen.
F
L
Thank
you
to
right.
I
will
be
speaking
about
our
shared
bike
and
scooter
program
today.
Next
slide,
I
wanted
to
share
kind
of
how
we
got
to
where
we
are
today
our
timeline
of
our
bike
share
and
shared
scooter
programs.
L
L
We've
had
numerous
different
pilot
programs
and
other
programs
to
test
new
types
of
vehicles
that
have
come
to
market
since
then,
and
we
are
currently
at
the
expiration
of
our
previous
programs
and
now
looking
to
implement
a
program
starting
in
2022
that
will
have
both
bike
and
scooters
and
other
vehicles
in
a
shared
combined
program
next
slide.
L
So
what
is
the
shared
bike
and
scooter
program?
It
is,
like
I
said,
a
across
multiple
micro
mobility
modes,
looking
to
give
access
to
public
right-of-way
for
these
shared
vehicles.
It
is
all
rooted
in
our
transportation
action
plan
and
the
goals
within
that
of
moving
forward
our
actions
and
our
strategies
around
climate
mobility,
safety,
equity
partnerships,
prosperity
and
having
an
active
city
with
this
we
were
also.
L
Within
this
rfp.
It
was
a
very
significant
effort
amongst
our
staff
to
work
with
peer
cities.
Do
a
lot
of
market
research
and
complete
significant
due
diligence
to
create
a
very
comprehensive
rfp
to
make
sure
that
we
were
getting
the
best
proposals
and
the
best
offerings
in
the
shared
mobility
space
within
the
city.
A
few
of
the
things
that
were
addressed
within
the
scope
of
services
within
the
rfp
were
overviews
of
the
vendors
and
their
profiles,
understanding
their
experience
in
other
cities,
their
qualifications
and
their
ability
to
meet
compliance
in
other
jurisdictions.
L
We
also
asked
for
but
not
limited
to
vehicles
such
as
classic
bikes,
electric
bikes,
electric
scooters
and
adaptive
cycles
to
be
potentially
proposed
within
the
program.
We
also
included
maintenance
operations
and
infrastructure,
with
our
lock
to
requirement
addition
in
the
last
couple
of
years.
We
recognize
that
we
need
significant
investment
in
infrastructure,
for
the
program
to
keep
it
sustainable
and
give
proper
allocation
right
away
and
keep
the
right-of-way
clear
for
those
walking
and
rolling,
and
so
asking
for
proposals
on
that
was
also
included.
We
also
included
user
compliance,
communication
and
programming.
L
So
how
will
the
companies
address
any
issues
within
the
public
space
from
the
public
as
well
as
how
will
they
do
engagement
and
communicate
programs
as
well
as
rules?
L
We
also
asked
for
information
on
their
labor
plan,
how
they
would
do
workforce
hiring
and
specifically
looking
at
some
of
the
workforce
challenges
in
the
market,
as
well
as
the
logistics
delays
that
have
happened
globally.
How
that
could
potentially
impact
the
program,
and
then
we
also
included
data,
including
making
sure
that
they
understand
the
strictness
of
the
minnesota
data
practices
act
and
how
we
treat
data
privacy
with
the
city
of
minneapolis,
which
is
a
very
important
part
of
this
program.
L
How
are
they
going
to
address
the
distribution
in
our
equity
zones
in
the
city
and
stay
compliant
within
that,
and
then
we
also
had
other
questions
around
their
financial
stability
and
other
considerations,
as
well
as
their
ability
to
serve
all
the
jurisdictions
and
markets
within
this
program
next
slide,
so
we
received
seven
proposals.
These
are
the
seven
companies
that
submitted
proposals.
L
We
had
five
companies
meet
minimum
qualifications
next
slide
and
from
that
we
reviewed
those
proposals
for
those
to
meet
the
minimum
qualifications.
We
then
conducted
interviews
with
all
of
the
companies.
We
also
conducted
vehicle
demonstrations
and
tests.
We
saw
over
20
vehicles
different
types
of
vehicles.
Like
I
mentioned,
we
also
our
full
review
team
read
and
conducted
due
diligence
on
all
the
proposals.
It
was
over
700
pages
of
documentation
that
was
submitted,
and
then
our
review
panel
scored
a
combine
of
all
of
the
above
to
come
up
with
our
final
evaluation
next
slide.
L
We
will
then
be
negotiating
with
the
companies
between
the
middle
and
end
of
december,
with
the
hope
of
executing
licenses
by
some
point
in
january
to
help
give
them
enough
time
to
get
workforce,
warehouse
spaces
and
get
the
vehicles
to
market,
and
then
we
are
aiming
for
an
april
1
2022
launch
date
for
the
program
climate
weather
permitting,
and
that
is
my.
That
is
the
conclusion.
I'm
happy
to
take
questions.
E
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
This
was
from
just
a
few
slides
ago
or
anyway,
you
were
going
through
the
robustness
of
how
you
evaluated
these
programs
and
I'm
just
curious
how
many
people
applied,
or
rather
how
many
vendors
applied
that
you
received
back
and
then
do
the
people
you're.
Looking
for
three
license
agreements
like
do
those
people
know
who
they
are
yet,
or
can
you
just
share
a
little
bit
more
about
that
so.
L
These
are
there:
we
go
yeah
yeah.
These
are
the
seven,
so
we
received
seven
total
proposals.
Five
of
the
seven
met
our
minimum
qualifications
and
completed
the
full
process
with
us.
We
have
not
notified
any
companies
at
this
point
partially
because
we
need
to
have
further
conversations
and
there's
a
lot
to
work
through
with
the
license
agreements
to
know
who
could
be
part
of
the
program
part
partially.
The
challenge
is
that
each
of
the
companies
proposed
something
different
in
terms
of
vehicles
in
terms
of
infrastructure.
L
So
it's
not
really
an
apples
to
apples
comparison.
So
it's
going
to
be
more
of
a
step-by-step
process
to
kind
of
complete
and
build.
E
L
Yeah
yeah,
terry
and
councilmember
we're
asking
for
up
two
three,
not
knowing
exactly
what
the
kind
of
combination
we
could
get
with
these
conversations
we'll
end
up
with.
We
want
to
make
sure
we
have
our
needs,
met
the
unique
needs
of
our
market
met
and
that,
but
we're
also
taking
into
consideration
the
other
constraints
of
oversight
of
the
program
building
out
a
full
fleet
that
serves
the
needs,
all
the
different
kind
of
considerations
that
will
be
different
with
each
vendor.
E
E
Is
it
that
everybody
approached
the
equity
questions
on
an
rfp
in
a
different
way,
or
something
that
I
remember
over
this
past
year?
Actually
over
the
past
few
years,
that
council,
member
gordon
and
I
were
particularly
concerned
about,
was
the
how
people
were
being
served
in
other
parts
of
the
city
and
in
particular
in
north
minneapolis?
Is
that
could
you
speak
to
that
a
little
bit.
L
Because
of
the
confidentiality
of
the
proposals,
I
can't
speak
to
any
contents
of
what
is
in
the
proposals,
but
I
can
speak
to
what
is
in
the
rfp
and
what
we
asked
for
and
what
is
in
our
the
sample
license
agreement
that
we
also
included
within
the
rfp
that
basic
that
delays
out
the
very
specific
rules
for
distribution.
So
we
have
equity
distribution
areas
in
north
and
south
minneapolis
they're
required
to
meet
a
certain
percentage
of
distribution
and
every
company,
regardless
of
what
they
propose.
That
is
a
minimum
that
they
have
to
comply
with.
A
I
guess
I
have
a
couple
questions.
One
is
why
three
then
I'm
also
curious.
If,
when
the
contracts
are
approved,
will
they
come
back
to
the
council
for
another
approval,
and
would
there
be
a
chance
you
might
come
back
wanting
four
or
five?
It
sounded
like
you
said,
five
of
the
seven
qualified
minimum
standards,
or
whatever
I
mean,
I'm
fine
if
we
continue
pursuing
it,
and
I
want
to
approve
that,
but
I'm
just
curious
about
why
three
and
if
ultimately,
we'll
have
another
chance
to
approve
it
folks.
A
My
colleagues
will
know
that
we
sometimes
hear
about
this
a
great
deal
from
some
of
the
companies.
L
Yeah
chair
right,
councilmember,
gordon
good
questions.
L
We
specifically
chose
three
because
we're
trying
to,
like
I
said,
come
up
with
a
mixture
of
different
devices
and
vehicles
that
can
serve
the
market
while
also
taking
into
consideration
not
wanting
to
have
too
much
clutter
in
the
right
of
way,
making
sure
that
we're
still
being
really
aware
of
keeping
sidewalks
clear
for
those
walking
and
rolling
so
striking
a
balance
between
having
enough
you
know,
operators
in
the
market
to
have
competition
to
have
coverage
to
have
the
right
kind
of
vehicle
make
up
without
having
too
much
other
constraint
put
on
us,
also
in
terms
of
administrative
oversight
of
the
programs,
because
it
is
a
significant
effort.
L
As
many
of
you
know,
we
are
asking
for
up
to
three
licenses
and
we
would
not
be
returning
asking
for
any
more
or
any
other
changes.
You
know
there
are,
I
guess,
unforeseen
circumstances
of
companies
consolidating
or
acquisitions
that
could
impact
these
things.
But
our
plan
is
still
in
terms
of
the
needs
of
the
market
and
oversight.
That
up
to
three
is
the
right
number.
A
And
maybe
you
talked
about
this
and
I
missed
it,
but
I
know
you
were
talking
about
the
multi-jurisdiction
partnership
that
we
had.
Is
that
also
up
for
renewal
at
this
time-
and
this
is
part
of
the
three
or
is
that
going
to
be
an
existing
contract?
That's
already
set
in
place
that
will
keep
going
through
next
year.
L
So
to
like
councilman
gordon,
the
the
way
that
it
works
is
that
we
are
asking
for
the
three
licenses
for
the
city
of
minneapolis.
Then
the
after
our
negotiations
are
complete.
L
L
In
the
past,
the
university
of
minnesota
and
the
park
board
have
chosen
to
use
our
selection
and
entered
into
the
same
in
agreements
with
the
same
companies
that
we've
entered
into,
and
it
is
our
hope,
based
on
the
collaboration
and
the
effort
that
we've
had
throughout
this
process,
that
we
will
get
to
a
point
where
saint
paul
will
also
be
entering
into
agreements
with
similar,
if
not
the
same
vendors
as
us
as
well.
K
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
so
I
know
that
this
is
a
program
that
has
been
sort
of
iteratively,
improving
as
we
learn
more
about
how
to
roll
it
out
and
that
there
have
been
concerns
expressed
about.
You
know
how
we
get
to
compliance
about
where
they're
supposed
to
be
parked
about,
where
they're
supposed
to
be
written,
etc.
K
And
I
know
that
at
this
evaluation
process,
when
we're
when
we're
at
the
moment
of
signing
new
contracts
and
and
pursuing
new
arrangements,
is
our
opportunity
to
make
the
next
set
of
iterative
improvements
for
next
season.
K
And
so
I
guess
I'm
curious
what
you're,
seeing
as
you're
doing
the
due
diligence
on
the
companies
that
have
applied
about
what
they've
done,
either
in
terms
of
new
technologies
or
new
processes
to
work
on
compliance
both
around
the
equity
expectations
that
we
set
for
the
vendors
that
we
chose
last
time
and
also
around
the
you
know,
compliance
in
terms
of
rider,
behavior
and
parking
and
and
so
on.
K
Are
there
are
there
things
we
can
offer
to
people
who
are
skeptical
of
the
program
about
things
that
we've
learned
and
things
that
we
expect
to
improve
in
the
coming
season?
As
we
move
forward
with
this.
L
Chair
councilmember
fletcher.
Yes,
as
you
know,
these
are
really
important
issues
for
this.
I
can't
comment
because
of
the
confidentiality
of
any
specifics
of
what
has
been
proposed
to
us
in
terms
of
technology,
but
I
can
say
that
these
were
all
elements
of
the
rfp
that
we
saw
demonstrations
in
person
of
some
of
this
technology
that
should
address
these
issues
as
well.
L
As
we
spoke
to
a
lot
of
other
u.s
cities
that
have
worked
with
the
the
vendors
that
have
been
proposed
to
be
able
to
vat
the
the
information
that
was
provided
to
us.
We
also,
I
will
just
say
we
have
significantly.
As
you
said,
this
is
a
iterative
program.
We've
grown
a
lot
and
in
the
last
year
we
have
created
significant
tools
in
our
data
analytics
work
that
has
is
we're.
L
The
only
city
in
the
us
that
has
has
been
able
to
actually
create
that
on
our
own
in-house
and
to
be
able
to
serve
our
needs
to
be
able
to
do
operational
compliance
on
a
daily
basis
with
these
companies.
So
we
have
I'm
confident
that
we
have
the
tools
in
place
now
that
we
know
exactly
what
is
happening
on
the
street,
the
accuracy
of
it
and
we
can
hold
these
companies
accountable.
L
For
that
and
that's
ultimately,
where
kind
of
our
only
control
is,
is
that
we
we
know
what
the
information
is
and
then
we
can
hold
them
accountable
through
that
we
can
be
promised
many
things,
but
at
the
end
of
the
day,
it's
what
is
actually
happening
on
the
street
is
what
we
have
control
over.
L
B
B
See
none
great
well
great
presentation
and
all
the
work
that
went
into
it
and
you
and
your
team
certainly
certainly
laid
out
for
a
really
strong
approach
to
how
these
things
happened
in
the
street,
because,
as
you
put
it,
that's
where
it
really
matters.
B
I
think
we've
learned
a
lot
from
the
last
couple
of
rounds
to
be
quite
frank
and-
and
I
think
this
is
going
to
be
a
really
critical
step
to
see
if
we
can
find
something
that
approaches
what
we
think
a
permanent
system,
a
permanent
network
of
service
for
a
community,
because
at
the
end
of
the
day
who
gets
picked,
is
not
the
primary
objective
from
a
public
policy
perspective
is
how
do
people
have
access
to
these
amenities,
this?
B
These
actual
serious
for
some
people,
serious
mode
of
operation-
they're,
not
just
novelties
or
fun,
though
they
can
be
that
too.
So
we
take
it
very
seriously
and
yeah
kind
of
proud.
Civically
minded
proud
that
we
have
always
been
at
the
forefront
of
creating
a
public
purpose,
parameter
for
this
type
of
mode
and
and
your
work
has
definitely
kept
us
at
the
forefront.
So
thank
you
for
that.
B
Yeah
and
and
to
my
colleagues,
the
questions
that
you
raised
were
very
clarifying
but
also
demonstrate
the
fact
that
we,
as
policy
makers,
have
been
part
of
that
iterative
process
that,
as
council
member
fletcher
put
it.
B
We
have
that
direct
connection
to
stakeholders
our
constituents
if
a
road's
getting
blocked,
it's
probably
one
of
our
roads
and
we're
the
first
to
know
about
it,
and
I
think
we've
been
part
of
that
process
and
I
think
moving
forward,
even
though
there's
been
a
shift
in
government
structure
somewhat
yet
to
be
determined
in
some
respects.
B
That
notion
of
how
policy
gets
framed
has
such
a
influence
on
how
it
operates,
and
I
think
that
will
always
be
the
purview
of
council
members
engaged
in
topics
that
they
care
about
and
dig
into
working
with
staff
very
directly,
but
as
a
conduit
to
constituents
and
stakeholders
directly.
It's
such
a
important
and
honorable
role
and-
and
I
think
the
questions
that
I
heard
from
my
colleagues
just
in
this
presentation-
demonstrate
that
connectivity
between
policy
and
the
people,
so
thank
you
for
that
process
now
scrolling
down.
B
B
That
carries
for
full
council
consideration,
and
that
is
the
end
of
the
agenda.
I
will
again
thank
director
jelly
for
inviting
our
esteemed
guests,
our
former
directors.
It
was
really
a
joy
to
see
them
and
hear
their
voices.
That
was
a
distinct
pleasure.
So
thank
you
for
arranging
that
additive.
A
part
of
the
agenda
and
with
that,
if
there's
no
objection,
I'll
call
this
meeting
adjourned.
