Parking Commission Minutes
NEW BUSINESS
6. PARKING COMMISSION BUDGET
-2- February 15, 1968
A review of the standard accounts was read by the Director of
Public Works Pizzorno, who reminded the Commission of the
City Council Study Session of March 18 to review the Public
Works Budget.
City Manager Koski arrived at 3:55 P.M. and stated he wanted
to bring to the attention of the Commission the budget items
of maintenance of the mall, possible acquisition of new malls
and that we are no longer tied to the 1943 Parking Lot Law
si „ce recent legislation permits the use of 1911 Improvement
Act for acquisition of off - street parking facilities. City
Manager Koski stated that as a matter of information, Mr.
Peterson, owner of the parking lot behind the Sprouse - Reitze
Building, offered to dedicate this property to the City if the
City would improve it in the form of a public parking lot and
mall. He went on to state that the property owned by Mr.
Clyde Hunter was offered to the City for purchase, as well as
two lots south of Fisher's Drug on Camellia Avenue, owned by
the Parking Association, to be used as parking lots.
The following is a summary of the Commission's feeling concern-
ing the Parking Commission Budget for Fiscal 1968 -1969:
(a) Traffic Engineering - $600. This will provide for
adequate staffing and studies by the staff or contract
services.
(b) Design Engineering - sufficient funds be budgeted for
the purpose of expansion of the malls and parking lots.
(c) Maintenance and repair - sufficient funds be budgeted
for maintenance and repair, including annual striping
of the lots, maintenance of signs, sprinklers, etc.
(d) Provide sufficient funds for possible new signs or
striping.
7. COMMUNICATIONS - There were none.
8. MATTERS FROM CITY OFFICIALS
Commissioner Nunamaker pointed out that as the City grows we
will have to spend more money for surveys as only if we have
the information can we make better decisions. Commissioner
Kettle suggested that the amount for surveys in the budget be
set at $600.
Commissioner Nunamaker reminded the Commision that Mr. Clyde
Hunter and a Mr. Graham of Graham's Music Store might be
interested in serving on this Commission..
Director of Public Works Pizzorno stated that no official
action by the Commission is in order, but that he would remind
the City Manager of this situation so that appropriate action
may be taken. Chairman Kettle requested that a change in the
Commission Chairmanship be placed on the agenda for June 12.
The publication "Down Town” was reviewed and it was decided that,
the Commission would not subscribe at this time.
