## Agenda

1. Review current station performance and ridership trends
2. Discuss expansion priorities for underserved neighborhoods
3. Confirm integration timeline with regional transit passes
4. Review maintenance response targets
5. Identify grant funding and local match requirements

## Discussion Notes

- Ridership is up 18% compared with the same quarter last year, with the strongest growth near commuter rail stations and the university corridor.
- Several outer-neighborhood stations are seeing low usage due to poor visibility, limited bike lane connections, and inconsistent rebalancing.
- The transit agency confirmed that bike-share access can be added to the regional pass system, but payment testing will require at least eight weeks.
- Maintenance reports show that dock outages are being resolved within 36 hours on average, above the agreed 24-hour target.
- The county sustainability office identified a state clean mobility grant that could fund up to 60% of expansion costs.

## Decisions

- Prioritize 12 new stations in Eastwood, North Park, and the Riverside employment district for the next expansion phase.
- Move forward with regional transit pass integration, targeting a pilot launch in October 2026.
- Set a revised maintenance service-level target of 24 hours for dock outages and 12 hours for reported unsafe bikes.
- Allocate remaining 2026 outreach funds toward community demos and multilingual station signage.
- Submit a joint grant application led by the Regional Mobility Authority.
