TransportationCommission | 2019-05-22 | 9 | Staff Member Smith said their goal would be to raise awareness generally in the business community about the benefits of telecommuting. She acknowledged the regional role necessary for successful implementation of that strategy. Commissioner Nachtigall said she had a potential regional connection to suggest for staff to follow up with regarding telecommuting. Commissioner Yuen asked how the CARP would interact with other decisions being made by the City. She asked how we would hold ourselves accountable. Staff Member Smith said the concepts in the plan are pervasive in everything the City does. She said that they would leave it up to Council to determine how the CARP gets integrated into the workflow. Liam Garland, Public Works Director, said annual reports would be a time for Council to make sure we are on track and hold ourselves accountable. He added that staff has been working closely with Community Action for a Sustainable Alameda (CASA) and expects them to help hold staff and Council to account. Commissioner Yuen said she supports the coordinator position and advocates that they are represented on other planning processes in the city for coordination purposes. Commissioner Kohlstrand asked if the annual reports would come to the commissions as well as City Council. Staff Member Garland said they could make the reports available to the Transportation Commission, given how significant a share of greenhouse gas emissions come from transportation. There was no action taken. 6.
