Boston-based car sharing service Zipcar is reportedly coming to Santa Rosa. The city council is working on signing a deal that will allow the company to operate two of its rental cars from city parking lots. One would be at the downtown SMART train station and the other would be next to the Russian River Brewery. City officials hope the service will be an environmentally friendly option for people trying to get around the region.
