It will move from park to park for different events or programs. Record the unit price for the item bid in eVA. Attach any necessary documentation with your bid in eVA if your firm is offering an “or equal” item. Failure to attach specifications of the items offered for an “or equal” brand may result in the disqualification of your firm’s bid. The County reserves the right to award the contract by line item or grand total whichever is in the best interest of the County. 2) The bid price shall not be the sole determining factor for the award. The evaluation criteria below shall be the determining factors in the award process: i. Type of item being offered (i.e.: train as per the specs below an “or equal” train) ii. Delivery time (number days after receipt of order) iii. Price of items (The line item amount as entered in eVA. In the event of an error in the grand total price the unit price shall prevail.) iv. Quality of items being offered. Any items that meet or exceed the minimum requirements of the specifications listed below shall be evaluated accordingly. v. A demonstration of the “or equal” train as bid in eVA may be deemed necessary by the County. The bidders may be requested to provide a location where the “or equal” item being bid is currently set up so that County staff can observe the products in use. If a demo of the “or equal” item bid is deemed necessary then the results of those evaluations shall be a factor in the award process. vi. Any warranty documentation for the items shall be submitted with your bid documentation in eVA. 3) The successful bidder shall be responsible for the delivery, unloading and assembly of the items at the address designated in eVA. Please provide any operating instructions at the time of delivery. 4) The delivery of the item must be no later than Friday March 2, 2018. 5) Any additional options for the items that are above and beyond the warranty (i.e.: any protection options, etc.) shall be included in the bidder’s pricing as applicable. Documentation of the options offered shall be attached with their bid documentation in eVA. Note: THE INCLUSION OF THESE OPTIONS IS ENTIRELY AT THE BIDDER’S DISCRETION. If the options and applicable pricing are not entered as a part of the bid it cannot be added to the purchase order after the award of the contract. Any options listed in the bidder’s documentation and accounted for in the bid price in eVA shall not be considered. 6) THE GRAND TOTAL AMOUNT FOR EACH OF THE BIDS CANNOT EXCEED $100,000. ANY BIDS THAT EXCEED THAT AMOUNT SHALL BE DISQUALIFIED AND NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR AN AWARD. 7) See the trackless train specifications below.

  • Comprehensive Review of the 2019 Blessing of the Fleet by Richard Lord, MPA, BOF Chairman 2015-2018 October 21, 2019 (Updated 11/21/19)
    Comprehensive Review of the 2019 Blessing of the Fleet By Richard Lord, MPA, BOF Chairman 2015-2018 October 21, 2019 (Updated 11/21/19) Introduction I was thrilled there was a 2019 Blessing of the Fleet (BOF). However, I was not pleased with the overall event. The live band music was the highlight of the BOF, but it was so sparse overall of just a few evening hours of a 16 hr. two dayslong event, that the lack of afternoon live band music was the major factor for the dissatisfaction and disappointment in the BOF. This, and other significant programmatic and structural deficiencies, represented a steep decline in the quality of the event from the excellence of the 2018 BOF and those that proceeded it. This Review is not to denigrate the 2019 BOF and its organizers. As the former Chairman from 2015-2018, I fully appreciate the considerable time and effort that went into the production of the 2019 BOF by its now five new Chairmen, and to their great credit as BOF novices, I am surprised it only took the five of them to replace me. Rather, if there is to be a 2020 BOF, I seek to be instructive to restore the BOF to its former state of distinction. As Chairman of the BOF for the last four years, no one knows the production and management challenges better than I. Further, no one knows better how to promote and manage this fine event. Thus, this Review is to provide guidance to the 2020 BOF organizers enabling them to return the event to its outstanding 2018 single-day Saturday production framework and programming constructing a BOF well worth attending and continuing.

  • The City of the Future
    Urban Planning (ISSN: 2183–7635) 2018, Volume 3, Issue 2, Pages 1–20 DOI: 10.17645/up.v3i2.1247 Article The City of the Future Garry Glazebrook 1,* and Peter Newman 2 1 Department of Design, Architecture and Building, University of Technology Sydney, Ultimo, NSW 2007, Australia; E-Mail: [email protected] 2 Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute (CUSP), Perth, WA 6845, Australia; E-Mail: [email protected] * Corresponding author Submitted: 31 October 2017 | Accepted: 5 March 2018 | Published: 24 April 2018 Abstract Limiting global warming to 1.5 °C will require rapid decarbonisation of the world’s electricity and transport systems. This must occur against a background of continuing urbanisation and the shift to the information economy. While replacement of fossil fuels in electricity generation is underway, urban transport is currently dominated by petrol and diesel-powered ve- hicles. The City of the Future will need to be built around a different transport and urban paradigm. This article argues that the new model will be a polycentric city linked by fast electric rail, with local access based on autonomous “community”- owned electric cars and buses supplemented by bicycles, electric bikes and scooters, with all electricity generated from renewables. Less space will be wasted on roads and parking, enabling higher accessibility yet more usable public open space. Building the cities of the future will require national governments to accelerate local initiatives through appropri- ate policy settings and strategic investment. The precise way in which individual cities move into the future will vary, and the article illustrates how the transformation could work for Australian cities, like Sydney, currently some of the most car dependent in the world, using new financial and city partnerships.

Howard’s Transportation Insights: Simplicity Transformation Design Priorities Obvious TRANSIT LATEST TRENDS + FUTURISM REGIONAL HUBS: TEEMING TRANSIT CENTERS SALESFORCE TRANSIT CENTER GRAND OPENING---PARTIALLY Located off Mission Street, between Beale & Second Street, this architecture is classic and worth experiencing---the Grand Hall, rooftop park, art installations, pop-up shops, bus deck, programs… The challenge is to assure the Center’s vibrancy and to fulfill its destiny as a regional transit hub. CHRONICLE: Even as SF transit center opens, officials figuring out how to pay bills https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/matier-ross/article/Even-as-SF-transit-center-opens-officials-13149810.php With high-speed rail a distant dream and its mall space still a shell, officials at the newly opened Transbay Transit Center are scrambling to come up with the $27.5 million a year needed to run the three-block-long mega-bus station and rooftop park. CHRONICLE: Salesforce Transit Center puzzle: When will the trains get to the station? https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Salesforce-Transit-Center-puzzle-When-will-the-13142498.php Beneath the art-bedecked terrazzo floor of San Francisco’s Salesforce Transit Center is an enormous concrete box waiting to be filled. But when the center opens Sunday, that concourse will remain empty. It will likely stay that way for years. DOWNTOWN CALTRAIN EXTENSION ( DTX) NEEDS ACCELERATION Kudos to all who helped create an architectural gem. Now, the long-promised Downtown Caltrain Extension (DTX) needs fast-tracked design and construction. DTX was the pretext for downtown upzoning and development. Without DTX, the shiny new Transit Center will lose its luster without 33,000 daily rail riders, generating commercial, operating and maintenance dollars.
