RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Parking Design
Group for consulting services for the Downtown Parking Structures
Automation in the amount of $72,600.
DISCUSSION
In the late 1980s, the City/Agency constructed a number of parking
structures to meet the growing demand for parking in the Downtown. The
facilities and equipment in these parking structures are deteriorated and
no longer cost efficient. Current automation technology will allow for
more efficient operations of the parking structures. The addition of
automated pay stations would decrease the need for front-line cashiers,
thereby reducing staff support requirements.
In order to accomplish the Downtown Parking Structure Automation Project,
a parking consultant is needed to assist staff in three phases. In Phase
One, an operations review of the four parking structures will be
performed with a cost/benefit analysis for replacing the existing
equipment with a state-of-the-art system. In Phase Two, a Request for
Proposals package will be developed and sent out to parking management
companies. In Phase Three, specifications and drawings will be produced
for the successful bidder to install the automated parking control system
in the four garages.
The summary of the Request for Proposals respondents is as follows:
