The committee reviewed several action items regarding TNC driver compensation policies, pin locations at the Port of Portland, and committee communication channels. A significant portion of the meeting focused on driver safety and training initiatives, addressing issues such as rider profile requirements, potential discrimination concerns, policies regarding unaccompanied minors, and the strict requirement to accommodate service animals. Updates were provided on roadway access for drivers and the status of TNC alert systems. Additionally, the Fees and Fares subcommittee discussed survey distribution, upfront fare models, and protocols for third-party rides. Finally, members were briefed on mandatory training requirements for committee participation and updates to the learning management system.
