Origin
Summary
Executive Committee, on April 23, 2013, considered a staff report and confidential attachment which presented options for restructuring the City’s relationship with BIXI Toronto due to financial difficulties experienced by BIXI.
Following the April 23, 2013 meeting of the Executive Committee staff issued a non-binding Request for Information (RFI) for the purposes of collecting information on bike-share operations and assessing market interest in assuming the BIXI program. Six responses were received in response to the RFI. None of the six respondents to the RFI were of the view that the BIXI Toronto operation could be assumed by a private operator/owner without some level of City subsidy; however there appears that there could be some potential to reduce the City's financial risk, to some extent, through a new arrangement with a private sector firm. To protect the City’s financial interest, the Confidential Attachment to this report discusses the options for restructuring the City’s relationship with BIXI. The Confidential Attachment will be distributed in advance of the July 3, 2013 meeting of Executive Committee.
