Background and Discussion:
The available parking spaces are limited in the Downtown Courthouse Complex and not having approval to provide these twenty-three (23) unreserved parking spaces will continue to increase the difficulty in finding secured parking for full-time personnel.

Eight (8) unreserved parking spaces at 1019 Congress Street, Houston, TX 77002 Parking Garage are $70.00/each. The estimated monthly cost is $560 and $6,720 annually.

Fifteen (15) unreserved parking spaces at 1401 Congress Street, Houston, TX 77002 Parking Garage are $85.00/each. The estimated monthly cost is $1,275 and $15,300 annually.


Expected Impact:
The expected cost will impact Fiscal Year 2027 General Fund 1000 approved budget.

Alternative Options:
The alternative option is not to provide paid parking to full-time personnel.
