Background and Discussion:

Universal Services is requesting that responsibility for managing County parking facilities be transferred from Budget Management to Universal Services. This transfer would include all current duties, obligations, and resources associated with parking, including control of Fund 5201, the Parking Enterprise Fund. Universal Services requests Court approval to transfer one (1) employee (County Auditor's Form 3441 attached), along with their accrued time balances, PCN, parking assignment, certain equipment and assets, as well as the necessary funding.

 

If approved by Court, these transfers will become effective with the pay period beginning September 25, 2021. Universal Services will work with Budget Management on the successful transition of Parking Enterprise operations, including contracts, open purchase orders, and capital projects.

 

Expected Impact:

No fiscal impact. If approved, an already budgeted and filled PCN would transfer from BMD to US, as well as control of the Parking Facilities Fund (Fund #5201). The transfer of responsibilities would also include BMD transferring management of the Parking Management Services contract to US, which is already budgeted for in The Parking Facilities Fund.

 

 

 

 

 

Alternative Options:

BMD would continue to be responsible for managing the County’s parking facilities.
