The Center does not focus on the emerging technologies themselves, but instead on the multi-level impacts — how these innovations are affecting things like land use, urban design, building design, transportation, and real estate and the implications these impacts have on equity, health and safety, the economy, and the environment. We work directly with public and private sector leaders to devise strategies to take advantage of the opportunities and mitigate the challenges of emerging technologies. Urbanism Next brings together experts from a wide range of disciplines including planning, design, development, business, and law and works with the public, private, and academic sectors to help create positive outcomes from the impending changes and challenges confronting our cities. Learn more at www.urbanismnext.org. NUMO NUMO is a global alliance that channels tech-based disruptions in transport to create joyful cities where sustainable and just mobility is the new normal. As an outgrowth of the Shared Mobility Principles for Livable Cities, NUMO’s mission is to leverage the momentum of significant revolutions in mobility to address urban issues such as sustainability, equity, accessibility and labor. As an alliance consisting of partners — including cities, NGOs, companies, mobility service operators, community advocates and more — NUMO aligns the actions, investments and values of a growing community to achieve transformational, on- the-ground changes in transportation. NUMO is hosted by WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities. Learn more at www.numo.global.

  • City Council Report
    City Council Report City Council Meeting: June 12, 2018 Agenda Item: 7.B To: Mayor and City Council From: David Martin, Director, Transportation Planning Subject: Establish a Pilot Program for Shared Mobility Devices, by 1) introducing for First Reading an Ordinance setting forth the Pilot Program, defining the terms and conditions of the Pilot and repealing previously adopted emergency regulations, 2) adopting a Resolution setting fees and charges for the Pilot Program, and 3) adopting an Emergency Ordinance limiting the renewal period for Vendor Permits for Shared Mobility Devices for FY18-19. Recommended Action Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) Introduce for First Reading the attached proposed Ordinance establishing the Shared Mobility Pilot Program, defining the terms and conditions of the Pilot, and repealing previously adopted emergency regulations; 2) Adopt a Resolution establishing fees and charges in support of the Pilot program; and, 3) Adopt an emergency ordinance limiting the renewal period for Vendor Permits for Shared Mobility Devices for FY18-19. Executive Summary Shared mobility devices are proliferating in cities across the country, including the inaugural launch of Bird Ride, Inc. (Bird) scooters in Santa Monica in late 2017 and the introduction of Lime e-bikes in 2018. These small electric or human-powered devices are new and highly visible, drawing considerable attention and controversy when they arrive in any area. They have raised significant community concerns about safety and enforcement, including concerns about users riding on the sidewalk, doubling up on scooters, and riding without a helmet, all of which are prohibited under state and/or local laws; users failing to observe traffic controls in violation of the California Vehicle Code; and other unsafe or uncivil rider behaviors.
