Michael then discussed the following items in the Open Discussions:
-
Global Provider ID including Provider ID and Provider Name: at agency’s discretion a Provider ID or Provider Name can be utilized. Example: a nationwide wide company most likely will use a Provider ID while a small business in a community will use a Provider Name
-
How to ID a vehicle?
- License Plate Number (facilitates the use of ALPR technology but comes with Privacy concerns to be framed with guidance). It is an optional field and will be presented to the Privacy Committee.
- Vehicle ID
- Source ID (UUID) can be generated automatically
- Under consideration for next release
- VIN
- Digital Permit Number
-
Curb ID stability discussion: what happens when it changes. If it is major geometry change, the Zone ID needs to change. But for other changes added:
- Published Date
- Last Updated Date
- An array for previous curb zone IDs

- Policy IDs
- Start Date
- End Date
-
If a change happened to a policy, then a new policy is generated
- Added Published Date
-
Optional add: show_ historic to allow old zones/policies to be searchable in a query
Brian Hamlin commented on the need to have cities test and provide feedback
Michael Schnuerle ditto’ed that and asked for real world feedback after implementing the CDS specs. Added with an explanation for the ability to do minor releases for minor changes and enhancements with V1.1, and if a major change is needed, then we can move to a longer process with V2.0. Also, mentioned that the specs provide flexibility for implementation.
Michael moved on to mention that there is still one item that is not complete which is clarifying/renaming some of the field names which will be worked on between now and the next week.
Michael continued to explain that there are other changes that have been incorporated but still open for discussion if there are any concerns. He then moved to show how work on Github is done. Some of the discussions will be finalized and placed as release candidates.
Michael asked Jascha to provide feedback as he is stepping down from OMF to assume a position with the City of Boston.
Jascha expressed his sadness for leaving and appreciated the collaboration he had with the group. He also expressed excitement about his new position and hoped to stay in touch with OMF. He also complimented Michael and Angela.
Angela expressed need to have members engage and to have more colleagues within each organization involved.
9:48 AM Michael thanked everyone and indicated that the next meeting will be in January. the meeting ended with Holiday wishes.
