CityCouncil | 2015-11-03 | 9 | 474 Councilmember Oddie stated that he hopes dialogue will continue with the School District; everyone should do their share in making the commute on and off the Island easier. Councilmember Daysog stated that he has been gathering data on the queueing traffic in and out of the tube; he will provide the information for future discussion on possible solutions to traffic problems on the West End. In response to Councilmember Daysog's inquiry regarding 7th and Harrison Streets in Oakland, the Transportation Engineer stated Alameda is actively working with the City of Oakland and the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) on projects affecting Tube traffic; Council will have a chance to review ACTC and the City of Oakland's project presentations; signs have already been posted on I-80 and on Constitution Way to inform the public. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated getting the School District to change the bell schedule would be a hard sell; the District should encourage parents to allow kids to ride bikes to reduce traffic during school hours. Vice Mayor Matarrese stated that he appreciates the report; inquired whether the Transportation Commission could be provided a copy of the report, to which the Transportation Engineer responded in the affirmative. Mayor Spencer stated extending the left lane sounds feasible; asking Lincoln School to move up their start time is a good option, but she does not think it will happen; she appreciates the traffic relief options #1 [Extend the left turn lane on Island Drive at Robert Davey Jr. Drive], and #4 [Check signal synchronization from Island Drive, Fernside Boulevard, and Otis Drive to Broadway]. Mayor Spencer called a recess at 9:20 p.m. and returned at 9:27 p.m. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft returned at 9:28 p.m. *** (15-666) Resolution No. 15099, "Amending Master Fee Resolution 12191 to Add and Revise Recreation and Park Fees."
