Bike share? Not a lot. Council made the decision that such a program would be challenging without the infrastructure in place first, so that's what it's focusing on. The point of bikeshare is to attract the casual rider, however the casual rider won't ride downtown streets until they're safer. It also decided it didn't want to operate a program itself, but instead facilitate a private operator if it were to come forward. An RFP may be issued in the next couple years.
