Senior Planner Katie Korzun recalled staff had presented a parking report
to the Agency in May which reported the Downtown Parking District was full,
and that more parking was needed. As part of that analysis, the Agency
Members directed staff to do an overall management review of the parking
system, with the idea that it could be streamlined and improved, and could
then be used to finance new parking.
Ms. Korzun explained staff had solicited proposals for a management study,
and received an excellent proposal from CUB Management, noting they have
extensive experience in overall management, as well as municipal management
of parking, and large parking situations, such as those associated with
colleges. After an inter -departmental review of the proposals, staff
believed CUB Management Group had the best proposal, and recommended they
be retained to perform the study.

Member Heller asked how many companies had been interviewed? Ms. Korzun
reported staff had not conducted interviews, noting only two proposals had
been received. She explained most parking consultants conduct parking
counts, demand studies, or design parking lots; management is something
they generally do not do, as they
assume that is something that has already been incorporated into a city.
Ms. Korzun pointed out the Agency has never before taken the step of
pulling it all together under one umbrella.
Member Heller asked for what other entities CUB Management Group has
provided these services? Ms. Korzun reported they were currently finishing
a major contract with Cal State -Long Beach and Cal State -San Luis Obispo;
in addition, two of their members actually ran the Parking Bureau for the
City of Los Angeles and the City of Memphis, Tennessee. She noted one of
the principals has his expertise primarily in management; therefore, he
will focus on a management system, while the others will address how the
parking works.
Mayor Boro invited public comment, and there was none.
Member Phillips moved and Member Heller seconded, to adopt the Resolution
authorizing a Professional Services Agreement with CUB Management Group.
RESOLUTION NO. 99-36 - RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
DIRECTOR TO SIGN A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH CUB MANAGEMENT GROUP TO PROVIDE CONSULTING
SERVICES FOR THE PARKING MANAGEMENT PROJECT (for an
amount not to exceed $33,125).
