- Submitted For:

SUBJECT:
Approval of Agreement between City of Fort Pierce and Skinny Labs, Inc. for an Electric Scooter Share Program for period of three (3) years.
SUMMARY:
In September 2019, the City of Fort Pierce launched a scooter share pilot program with the goal of learning how best to realize the benefits of micro-mobility programs while addressing common pitfalls. The pilot program ended on September 12, 2020, and the vendor (Superpedestrian) continued operating on a month-to-month basis. At the request of the City Commission, staff initiated a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit proposals from vendors interested in operating a turn-key, financially self-sustaining, automated, on-demand public electric scooter sharing system within the City of Fort Pierce. The RFP was developed based on the lessons learned in the pilot program, best practices from other jurisdictions, and feedback from stakeholders. On March 15, 2021, the City Commission authorized staff to enter negotiations with the highest ranked respondent, Skinny Labs, Inc. dba Spin. The negotiation period has concluded and a proposed agreement is being presented for the consideration of the Fort Pierce City Commission.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Electric Scooter Share Program Agreement.
