The Infrastructure, Transportation & Technology Committee on Nov. 19 took the following formal actions on council business:

The committee, by voice and with no recorded objections, reported out two Department of Transportation Services safety plans required by the Federal Transit Administration: Resolution 25‑317 (bus and paratransit agency safety plan) and Resolution 25‑309 (rail agency safety plan). DTS explained the updates reflect new FTA rules, including labor representation on safety committees and state safety oversight for rail; the plans must be approved by the governing board and were reported to the full council for adoption.

Bill 73 (omnibus update to the city traffic code) was introduced by Council member DeSantos Tam but postponed to allow staff and the introducer to prepare a revised draft. DeSantos Tam said the code contains obsolete provisions dating to 1931 and recommended iterative updates to avoid state or federal preemption issues.

Bill 71 (shared streets) was presented, received supportive testimony from active‑transportation advocates and a staff‑proposed CD1 was posted. The chair amended Bill 71 to CD1 (OCS 2025‑0896) and reported the measure out for passage on second reading and scheduling of a public hearing.

Bill 42 (taxicab regulation), presented by Council members Tupelo and Weier as CD1, was supported by stakeholder testimony (Charlie’s Taxi) and the chair recommended it be reported out for passage on third reading; no objections were recorded on the record.

No formal roll‑call vote tallies were recorded in the committee text for these items; the chair repeatedly solicited objections and none were voiced. The committee closed testimony on action items and adjourned.
