TransportationCommission | 2018-12-03 | 6 | 5-B 2018-6272 Recommendation to Adopt Minor Revisions to the Street Sections in Alameda Point Master Infrastructure Plan and the Main Street Neighborhood Specific Plan Chair Miley reminded everyone that the item has been postponed. He said he would call the public speaker who wished to speak on that item and opened the public hearing. Jim Strehlow referred to Orion Street at Oriskany where Williams Sonoma is. He said he does not understand how the sidewalk with street trees would fit in with the loading work they do there. He said there are other businesses along Orion that park perpendicularly and would lose parking under the proposed designs. Chair Miley closed the public hearing. 5-C 2018-6273 Recommendation to Accept an Update on the April 2, 2018 and May 1, 2018 Referrals from Council Member Matarrese to Consider Banning Motorized Vehicles, Including Robotic Commercial Vehicles, from Sidewalks and Commercial Drone Aircraft Used for Deliveries; and Electric Scooters. (Public Works 310) Staff Member Wikstrom gave a presentation on robotic commercial vehicles and commercial drones used for deliveries. The staff report and attachment can be found at: https://alameda.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=3760637&GUID=F59C01F8- AD77-4431-A792-90C2A8FD47AO&FullText=1 Chair Miley asked if there had been any operation of sidewalk robotic delivery vehicles yet in Alameda. Staff Member Wikstrom said there was one report which helped lead to the referral but nothing widespread. Commissioner Soules asked if a ban was the only way to establish the requirement of a permit. Staff Member Wikstrom said the challenge would be trying to establish a permit for something you do not yet understand. He continued his presentation. Staff Member Wheeler gave a presentation on electric scooters. Chair Miley asked if pilot programs in other cities require the companies to fund education for teen riders.
