TransportationCommission | 2019-11-20 | 6 | Transportation Commission 1-22-20 Item 4-A Commissioner Johnson made a motion to uphold staff's decision not to install a four way stop at Pacific and Oak. Commissioner Weitze seconded the motion. The motion passed 6-0. 5-D 2019-7473 Discuss Electric Vehicle Adoption Staff Member Payne gave a presentation. The report and attachments can be found at: https://alameda.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=4228580&GUID=2C474DDF- F4DD-4A03-B091-CC1E8E09A727&FullText=1 Sonia Manrique, Alameda Municipal Power, continued the presentation. Commissioner Weitze asked about the fleet replacement policy and whether replacing existing vehicles with new electric vehicles was a net benefit. Staff Member Payne said they are replacing vehicles that are beyond their useful life. She added that charging capacity is the main limiting factor to the number of EVs they can purchase at this time. Commissioner Weitze asked what would happen to the green energy surcharge once the shift to 100 percent clean energy occurs. Rebecca Irwin, Alameda Municipal Power, said they will be repositioning the Alameda Green program to allow people to green up the regional grid instead of just their individual home. Commissioner Weitze asked if the rebate would apply towards the infrastructure or just the charger. Staff Member Irwin said that the rebates can be applied towards infrastructure, but that multifamily units present unique challenges that can dramatically increase the cost of adding individual chargers. She added that AMP staff will come out and talk through the issues for any particular site. Commissioner Nachtigall asked if the rebate would apply to leased EVs. Staff Member Irwin said that AMP is focusing on rebating used vehicles, saying that the market is already taking care of encouraging new vehicles. No action was taken. 6.
