>> commissioner dunlop: yes. >> that's a great idea. >> commissioner dunlop: so you haven't gotten that far yet? >> we just haven't gotten there. the steps we take are to identify what we'll be measuring and what requirements we'll put on to the vehicle provider. and then because it's grant-funded, we'll need to go through a competitive process to identify the vehicle operator and as part of that, we could actually do some kind of site test potentially as part of a bidding process or a request for information process. that's something we can think about. and certainly once we identify the vehicle manufacturer and operator we'll be working with, we will need to go through a series of steps to test the vehicle in small ways before it's just out there. so it's a very good point. >> commissioner dunlop: this is intended as free shuttle for residents? >> yes, free. >> commissioner dunlop: there's a lot of concern, people that live on the island right now, that the newer apartments and residences will only be allowed one car. and some people have like three cars, maybe four. so i think this i

>> commissioner dunlop: yes. i just want to thank everyone involved in this incredible project that seems to have a really 69% retention, that's insane. it's so good. i did have just a quick question, because it was mentioned that you might be looking to expand. is that any time soon or just kind of -- >> we're looking at the numbers and at what parts of the program we want to beef up. we're getting looked at by accrediting. if we can expand 15 to 30, how do we do it? what is the cost of that? our goal is to have that by the end of the month what we're looking at, just assessing that footprint and how we can double that. >> commissioner dunlop: it's great. i'm sure the staff notices that we are -- the directors are very much excited about this and to see it expand would be great. and so we'll definitely be hearing about it. do you have a bank that you work with when you talk about financial services that you are offering? >> a couple of different banks. >> we currently have relationship with federal credit union

and commissioner dunlop? >> commissioner dunlop: i just wanted -- just a quick add on to a suggestion about having actual examples. as the program gets more refined , come back with examples so there's this ongoing thing so we can look how it will actually affect people who live on the island. thank you. >> commissioner richardson: thank you. i am going to -- any public comment? no public comment. again, the take away for you, rachel, to your agency and director, as we are pleased. we are making exactly -- what you are touching on here is going to help nudge us. we are familiar with all the other initiatives that you might have. but this is really done well and it will help everyone out in resolving issues that we have right now. i am finally going to encourage that you work very closely with the port of san francisco. they provide the entry. the port of san francisco for the last two years, have put together one of its kind in any other agency in the country, in the world and the waterfront group which was r

this is an opportunity for everyone to speak. >> commissioner dunlop: thank you. it is less than a question. it is more of a comment on getting a bike lane from the islands to san francisco. you know, it is understudied now but it is very possible the study might say no, we cannot attach this wait to this 75 or 80-year-old bridge without having some really bad happenings on the structure of the bridge. because the wait is just so -- the weight does not really allow for a lot of extra weight on one side. i'm not even sure if that will be an option in our lifetime. but you never know. well, my lifetime. >> commissioner richardson: you also know that our director also would like to speak. i have a lot of questions but i will depart and make sure everyone gets their questions in so, bob, do you -- >> my comment was the last question before she departed in terms of the one dollar toll on the weekends. parts of what the transportation authority has been doing -- these are the initial toll rates as time goes on, and the ferry goes to 24-hour -- not 24 hours a day, but to
