Summary
Councilmember Wotherspoon floated adding an autonomous circulator shuttle to the city's transportation wish list — a driverless vehicle shuttling shoppers and visitors up and down Mt. Diablo so people stop circling parking lots. The council loved the idea, added it to the county project list as a placeholder, and wants to pitch Lafayette as a pilot site to vendors.

Impact analysis
Unknown for now — the city hopes a vendor would supply the technology as a pilot, with no committed local spending.
Shoppers, hotel guests, seniors, and anyone who'd rather not drive between downtown parking lots — plus congestion relief on Mt. Diablo.
