And they want you to come to City Hall. Seriously. Says council member Jan Drago:“I am looking forward to a productive conversation with the scooter community to see how we can work to better accommodate them in our city as a viable transportation option. Motor scooters are an exciting mode of alternative transportation.”Drago is a big fan of “alternative” transportation. She’s also the one pushing more routes for the SLUT. Scooter riding is a choice way to get around, but this is clearly a cleaver ploy to get the Capitol Hill vote. Well done.Local Vespa club representatives will be there– as well as members of the mosquito fleet, who have car vs. moped horror stories to spare.The pro-scooter forum is scheduled for Tuesday March 11, 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the Bertha Knight Landes Room, first floor city hall.
