CityCouncil | 2016-10-18 | 12 | Councilmember Oddie requested a friendly amendment to the motion to seek out regional partners to share in the funding, and examine and pursue potential funding sources, including Regional Measure 3 (RM3). Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft inquired if Councilmember Oddie referring to RM3 is the additional bridge toll that might be on the 2018 ballot, to which Councilmember Oddie responded in the affirmative. Vice Mayor Matarrese stated the funding needs to be identified; he does not want the project to take funds from Central Avenue; the case to the Coast Guard will be stronger if there are funds in hand to construct the bridge; stated his words are only comments not a friendly amendment to the motion. Mayor Spencer inquired whether Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft accepts Councilmember Oddie's friendly amendment, to which Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft responded in the affirmative. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft stated the City would not build the bridge, CalTrans would build it; the Coast Guard issue is not that the City wants the Coast Guard to pay for the bridge. Councilmember Oddie stated the point is to start at the ground floor; the friendly amendment is in addition to doing the study and the City start identifying funding. Councilmember Ezzy Ashcraft accepted the amendment. Councilmember Daysog expressed how critical it is to move forward; thanked the Transportation Commission and Bike Walk Alameda.
