What this means
The committee approved lower speed limits near many schools to improve student safety and backed steps to reduce dangerous street takeovers. The City moved to pursue grant funding to buy 83 battery-electric buses, which, if funded, would add cleaner buses to local transit. The committee also approved changes around micromobility parking, local parking restrictions, and new rules on where electric bikes and similar vehicles can operate. City staff gave an informational update on transportation planning for the 2028 Olympics but no decisions were made on that update.
