TransportationCommission | 2021-05-26 | 12 | Commissioner Kohlstrand asked if it was based on Census Data or some other data. Staff Member Payne said that it was mainly based on Census Data and a combination of various factors. 6D. Status Report on Transportation - May 2021 (Discussion) Staff Member Payne introduced the item and gave a brief presentation with Staff Member Wheeler. The staff report and presentation can be found at http://alameda.legistar.com/gateway.aspx?M=F&ID=792bf795-7f1d-41b8-a994- 14e7b34ce277.pdf and http://alameda.legistar.com/gateway.aspx?M=F&ID=e03c16e4-945d-47c1-bf9d- 07656ad6a5a7.pdf. Commissioner Clarifying Questions for #6D Chair Soules said the graphics and the layout had come a long way. She commended the extra effort the staff did to make this more readable. Vice-Chair Nachtigall asked if they were going to be charging for parking right away at the Sea Plane Lagoon ferry terminal. Staff Member Foster said they would not have paid parking in place for when the ferry started but they would be getting it implemented soon. Pay stations will be installed in the coming months. Commissioner Weitze wanted to know what the staff thought about traffic being bad and backed up everywhere except getting on and off the island on the West End. How could they keep that going forward? Staff Member Payne said much of that had to do with the demographics of Alameda, people tend to have jobs where they can telecommute, and schools were not in session. Commissioner Weitze asked if city staff was projecting that to continue since demographics were going in the direction of telecommuting. Staff Member Payne said that was hard to predict but it did present an opportunity to help with congestion on and off the island.
