Item to be pre;
_LynnM._Hatric
SUBJECT: PROPOSED PARKING LEASE AGREEMENT
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
In August of 1996, staff began construction activity in conjunction with Phase H of the City's Field
Services Facility Remodel Project. When completed, this remodel will provide permanent office
facilities for both the City's Transit Contractor and a portion of our existing Transit Division staff.
The Phase II Remodel also coincided with the arrival of the City's new Transit Contractor
(ATCNancom) and its staff.
Prior to the start of construction activity and the arrival of ATCNancom, normal day to day
activities at the Field Services Office created a situation that made finding adequate parking an
extremely challenging proposition at best. Since August of 1996, the parking situation at the Field
Services Office has been further impacted through the introduction of additional ATCNancom
Transit staff, Transit equipment, and the contractors'- vehicles present at the work site.
To address these additional parking needs, Public Works staff was able to negotiate an informal
agreement which provided staff with off-site parking. This off-site parking was provided free of
charge by Applied Companies, a business located directly across the street from the City's Field
Service Office.
Our normal day to day activities have always made finding adequate work and parking space an
extremely challenging proposition at best. Now, add a six-month construction process to create
even more office space, a primary contractor, its subcontractor and all its work vehicles, and you
can understand why we run out of parking spaces every morning before 8:00 a.m.
While Phase II construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of January 1997, with the
increased number of staff employed by ATCNancom and the introduction of additional buses to our
transit fleet, staff parking availability is anticipated to remain limited. To this end, the Public Works
staff has negotiated a six (6) month Parking Lease Agreement with Applied Companies. Under this
proposed Agreement, the City will lease twenty (20) parking spaces from Applied Companies at a
monthly rate of $500.00. The total amount of this proposed Agreement is $3,000. This proposed
agreement will be funded through existing Transit funds approved during the Mid Year Budget
process and does not require any additional appropriations.
Appflogg A enda Item:. If
That Council direct the City Manager to execute a Parking Lot Lease Agreement with Applied
Companies in the amount of $3,000 in order to provide additional parking spaces for City staff.
