Hi Jim,
Good timing—Reno, Nevada City Council is meeting tomorrow and likely approving a franchise renewal with Lime, so I have been able to grab the original, temporary agreement, staff report, and proposed continuing agreement for you to dig into as you please. Reno got ahead of the curve, did an RFP from various bikeshare companies, and has passed regulations that only allowed Lime access to the public right-of-way. The original franchise agreement was made between Lime & 5 partners including the neighboring city of Sparks, Washoe County (which both cities are part of), Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, and the University of Nevada, Reno. Just a bit of background there. I'm not intimately familiar with the program's workings, but if your group has questions, I'm happy to do my best to answer them, or direct you to someone who can.

Mexico City just installed the first technical board for bike share and dockless transportation systems infrastructure and operations management and I'm super stoked to be part of it. Right now we're trying to gather information from other systems around the world on what their regulations are specifically with the dockless bikes and scooters operators. Some of the questions we're trying to find answers for are:
What are the requirements for companies that offer these services to operate in your city? Do companies have to pay some sort of right to operate in the city? If so, how much is it and how often do you do contract renewal? Which are the penalties for companies who don't stick to the rules? Do companies have to install infrastructure for their bikes? Given they are dockless, some sort of designated spaces or areas? Do companies have to contribute to the bike infrastructure maintenance? If you or anyone you know have some info or is willing to chat at some point, let me know!
Thanks everyone!
Much love,
-Jim Mayerstein
