TransportationCommission | 2012-06-27 | 9 | Commissioner Bellows replied the letter was written some time ago and staff has made some progress with the objections of the letter. Staff Khan replied the concerns from the Chinatown community were directed towards the project study report (PSR), and the current concepts came after the PSR. He further explained that the staff for the city of Oakland was aware of the concerns. 5. Staff Communications The League of American Bicyclists awarded the City of Alameda with a bronze award. There is a new ferry service between South San Francisco and Alameda/Oakland. The service began Monday, June 4th and it is a 40-50 minute ride. The ferry system runs Monday through Friday with three morning departures and two evening departures and fits 149 passengers and over 30 bicycles. Additionally, there are some shuttles at the South San Francisco end. Complete Street Policy requirement for the City. Staff will bring information about the Complete Street Policy to the Commission in September. The policy requirement is coming from the following two different sources: 1) the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) recently approved the One Bay Area Grant and the funding is coming from federal sources. Every jurisdiction should have a complete street policy adopted by early 2013, and 2) the Alameda County Transportation Commission has a Complete Street requirement in their funding agreement that the City signed and must adhere to it by June 30, 2013 to receive Measure B funds. One advantage for the City is that they recently updated their Transportation Element in the General Plan.
