Hello all!
Please find our draft November minutes attached if you have suggested changes to the minutes please pipe up before end of day tomorrow (Friday).
Frank will draft a memo outlining the board's position on e-scooters by the end of next week -- there has been quite a bit of chatter about this in a variety of venues, so if you want to weigh in here please synthesize your thoughts and forward them to Frank as soon as practicable.
Reading material, if you're interested: https://www.citylab.com/transportation/2018/08/is-it-time-to-rethink-what-a-... https://www.portlandoregon.gov/transportation/article/700916 https://www.wired.com/story/shared-electric-scooters-rolling/ http://www.governing.com/columns/transportation-and-infrastructure/gov-scoot...

If you have a strong reaction one way or another, I urge you to sit with it and try to see why you have that reaction and think through it.
Thanks! Drew
No strong reaction about e-scooters from me. Thanks!
