The City shall conduct a study that explores the development of car-sharing and/or bike sharing programs for City employees. Based on findings from the study, the City shall prepare and submit recommendations to the City Council about establishing such programs.


The City was awareded a grant in 2017 to deploy and promote car sharing at multiple locations throughout Hayward. In 2019, the City returned the grant funds and closed the program after it was determined to be infeasible. The City will continue to look for additional opportunites to support car and bike sharing as opportunities arise.
