Design Requested for Lot 1 2 ◦ Paving and w ater run-off m anagem ent. ◦ Now that Lot 1 2 is capped it m ight be cheaper to pave? ◦ W e should have this assessm ent back in a m onth or tw o. Repaving of Lot 2 5 ◦ Lot w as already in rough shape before the canopies w ent in and w ill probably be a “patchw ork” after the canopies are finished. ◦ Rough estim ate to repave is $ 5 0 0 k but there m ay be som e post solar grant m oney available for this. Hills Dem olition I deal ◦ I ’ve been told that after dem olition of Hills, it w ill becom e a parking lot. ◦ I have been pushing for this for 2 years. Projects on the Horizon
W hat’s the Parking Plan?
Digital vs. Manual ◦ Move all the “m anual, un-trackable” perm its to a digital controllable form at. CPP vs. OPP ◦ Renew als and full year perm it purchases to be com pleted on-line only. Over-the-counter purchases have dropped dram atically over the past 2 years as w e m oved to E-Biz and w ith the creation of TPP and CPP. Still, on-line purchases equal less than 6 0 % of total yearlong sales. ◦ LPR – License Plate Recognition or perm it-less parking. Your license plate becom es your perm it! This technology has im proved trem endously. But w ill need to m ove aw ay from m anual perm its in order for this to w ork efficiently. More efficient parking m oving forw ard
