Really want to know how this works and were surveying members to find out do they intend to buy another car . Do they intend to sell a car . Do they walk more or less . That kinds of stuff. Geographic equity is a big concern. In the first pilot initially sort of in the Northeast Quadrant of the city our districts wanted access to this service so more pods were established. This time around were trying to establish to this need to distribute Car Share Service across the city in two ways. First we divided the city into three pieces and on the map there is northeast and downtown and middle tier and outer belt and sunset and richmond and southern and eastern neighborhoods and bay view and hunters point. Car share organizations that want to participate will ask us for spaces. Actually they will prepare a list of spaces they would like. I dont bore you with the process but car share organizations are going to be present in all three of the zones and we set floors for the outer zones to make
That question about seniors and i understand in your presentation you said this is actually not the appropriate tool to address the question of seniors and people with disabilities and im sorry did you say which one is the correct tool and i missed it . Or is that something we approach on a granduear level. Exactly. Through our Service Standards so for stops for example and one of the things the standards speaks to is go to a shorter stop spacing with grades or considering the adjacent land uses. Its part of the information that staff will prepare for you as you make decisions about Service Changes and its also built into the outreach process, so for example we are looking to do a pilot of Service Improvements on fulton as part of the transit effectiveness project and one of the things were doing is working closely with the Senior Center thats on fulton and 38th to make sure that our stop proposals work for their needs so we try to address a number of levels, both through your lens as
Of the board. Good presentation. Yeah good presentation. Thank you very much. I did have one question. I know we do the a letter from the bcdc asking that question about seniors and i understand in your presentation you said this is actually not the appropriate tool to address the question of seniors and people with disabilities and im sorry did you say which one is the correct tool and i missed it . Or is that something we approach on a granduear level. Exactly.

This board is so pleased, more or less immediately we will begin to move in on this and go on the next couple of years with the pilot. Were going to go in a rules based fashion. This isnt a competitive rfp type of thing but by defining what a car Share Organization is and the terms of participation we are inviting any car Share Organization present their credentials, make their case. If they qualify they are permitted to participate but they also have to commit to some other conditions. We will come to those in a moment. I have to correct the slide. It says up to 150 spaces per year. What were proposing is up to 900 spaces and 450 the first year and 450 the next year and depending how many car Share Organizations join us we will take that and a lot that up. If we have five organizations doing it there are less spaces but there are more spaces overall. We will look at the outreach efforts and wont wait until two years to make adjustments to the outreach that were asking the car Share Or
