MINUTES Page 4 City of San Leandro City Council and San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Joint Meeting-March 16, 2009 removing the statement in the proposed ordinance that "all businesses within the BID will benefit." Mayor Santos commented that the program does benefit all businesses within the BID. As a periodic rider on the LINKS, he witnesses that it is well-used. Reduction in the number of vehicles on the West San Leandro streets justifies the use of Redevelopment funds. Councilmember Prola commented that he also rides the LINKS occasionally. Many businesses in his area are in favor of the LINKS. • Ordinance No. 2009-002, an Ordinance Amending Title 2 of the San Leandro Municipal Code to Delete Chapter 15 and to Add a New Chapter 15 Establishing the West San Leandro Shuttle Business Improvement District in the City of San Leandro (provides continuation of the LINKS Shuttle service until June 30, 2014).
