Ruby, City Attorney SUBJECT: Proposals for Shuttle Bus Service The City Commission decided to postpone a decision on the above until it had a chance to hear from proposers in order to determine which proposal was in the best interest of the City. The following must be decided: (1) Was the protest timely? One proposer (Limousines of South Florida) filed a bid protest which was denied by staff as being untimely. The City's protest procedures say the time to protest is "five (5) calendar days from the date the bid results become public information". One could argue the language does not say five days from the "rankinq of the bid results" that were previously open and available to public inspection and thus. you could move to deny the protest on the basis it is untimely. If the protest was untimely, go to question 3. If you determine it was timely, go to question 2. (2) Is there an unfair competitive advantage? If the bid protest is found to be timely, you must consider whether there was an unfair competitive advantage. In order to decide whether there was an unfair competitive advantage, you should hear from the top two proposers only. If Limousines of South Florida proves there was an unfair competitive advantage then their protest should be granted. If you feel there was no unfair competitive advantage given, the protest must be denied and you should proceed to question 4. S~,1. City Commission January 6. 2006 Page 2 (3) Ranking Anew. If you feel that the bid was either untimely or that there was no unfair competitive advantage, you may proceed to rank the candidates anew. If you rank them anew, you should hear from all proposers. (4) Waiving Irregularities. If the protest is denied or if you decide to rank anew, you must consider whether to waive any irregularities in Quality's proposal or any other proposal. The RFP gives wide latitude for the City to waive any and all irregularities despite any mandatory language. To waive irregularities is solely in the City Commission's discretion. The Commission should consider whether the irregularity was so material that it is prejudicial to a fair bidding process. (5) Fifth Option. The last option is to throw out all the proposals and begin again. Please call if you have any questions. s~ cc: David Harden, City Manager Chevelle Nubin, City Clerk Jan 05 06 10:45a Jud~ Muf'a1e 954-776-0578 p.1 Town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea Municipal Services 4501 Ocean Drive, lauderdale-By-The-Sea.

Planning & Zoning Department MEMORANDUM DELRAYB;.~~m... ~.{; ~ <. ......... f'iiii! 1993 2001 FROM: DATE: RE: :;~;~~,""n,ng & Zon'ng .~on~U Specialist January 4, 2006 Shuttle Services TO: THRU: At the January 3, 2006 City Commission meeting, Staff had forwarded a recommendation for award of bid to Quality Transport Services, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Quality") in the amount of $840,840 for an initial three (3) year contract ($1,401,400 if extended to five (5) years). Limousines of South Florida (hereinafter referred to as "Limousines"), rated as the second bidder, has challenged the Bid process deeming that Quality's response should have been disqualified for omitting the required RFP Signature Form along with other required documentation (License to do business in Florida and vehicle inventory list). The Commission opted to defer the award of bid to the January 10, 2006 workshop to allow the two respondents to appear before the Commission. The following information is provided to assist in the formulation of that decision: 1. After further review by the Purchasing Department, it was discovered that two different RFP Signature Forms were inadvertently included in the RFP. Although Quality did not submit both forms, Staff feels they did indeed meet the intent of the RFP by submitting one fully executed RFP signature form. which would customarily be included in all RFPs. 2. Attached for your review are the review committee's scores for the two respondents. Although the final scores separated the two respondents by only two (2) points (422 for Quality v. 420 for Limousines), the score for the most important criteria (Cost to City; a possible total of 175 points) was ranked higher for Quality, 162 v. Limousines, 128. 3. Staff has been able to make contact with two references from both of the respondents. All references were good to excellent with contract extensions awarded to both companies. It is noted that while checking references for Quality, the Town of Davie recently went out to bid for service to the Green Route (one of two existing routes previously serviced by Quality). In that process Quality was deemed the lowest, most qualified bidder, but was not awarded the 6-P.A.. City Commission Workshop Shuttle Services Page 2 of 2 contract as a challenge to the process from Limousines was upheld and the route was awarded to Limousines by their City Council. In speaking further with the representative from Davie, records of complaints dated November 1 through December 8, 2005 were forwarded for comparative analysis (see attached). It is noted that Quality, which continues to operate one route (Blue Route), has a total of 6 complaints lodged compared to 36 complaints noted for Limousines' new route (Green Route). Additionally, attached for your review is a letter of recommendation for Quality from Susan Dean, Program Manager for the Town of Davie. Please note the following correction to the Staff report of January 3, 2005. The report stated that over a five year term a $455,000 savings would be realized when comparing the quotes of Quality to Limousines. The actual savings would be $274,820. A total of four respondents submitted proposals in response to the RFP. Molly's Trolleys, ranked third with a score of 406 and Midnight Sun, ranked fourth with a score of 313 (attached). Upon direction of the City Attorney these two respondents have also been invited to the meeting. References for Molly's Trolleys were similar to Quality and Limousines ranging from good to excellent. Midnight Sun's references were comparable to the others but seemed to provide charter services as opposed to the fixed route system the City will be running. Considering the aforementioned, Staff recommends dismissing the challenge from Limousines of South Florida, and awarding the contract to provide shuttle services pursuant to RFP 2006-01 to Quality Transport Services, Inc.

The Green Route is LSF and the Blue Route is Quality. They are both very long routes and cover a lot of space, although the blue route is a little more difficult because it involves going in and out of mobile home parks. *** eSafe scanned this email for malicious content *** IMPORTANT: Do not open attachments from unrecognized senders *** *** The attached is being presented as received.

WWW.DAVIE-FL.GOV Memorandum TO: Scott Aronson FROM: Susan Dean, Programs Manager THROUGH: SUBJECT: Quality Transportation, Inc. DATE: Januarv 4, 2005 I have managed the Agreement with Quality Transportation since they began in Davie on the Blue Route in 2003. I would highly recommend this company to operate your municipal transportation services. Quality's ethics are high and their administrative staff is cooperative, flexible and accommodating. When we unexpectedly had to fire our previous company on our Green Route in 2004, Quality stepped in as a replacement and was up and running within 24 hours. I know that Quality is a company that I can depend on. Quality's handling of difficult riders is outstanding. Their willingness to work with our riders and assist them has been over and above what is to be expected. Quality's communication with the Town has always made them extremely easy to work with. As with any transportation company there will always be complaints, and the minimal amount of complaints that we have received are no different than any other city experiences. In a study done between January and October 2005, we received 150 calls regarding the route, 22 calls of those calls were complaints (bus was late, bus was early, driver not friendly etc), and the remaining 128 calls were requests for information. I have found Quality to be a reliable, courteous, and responsible.

Pension Board Governance Issues '\N s .~ . , CITY OF DELRA Y BEACH POLICE I FIREFIGHTER RETIREMENT ISSUES 1. Use of Premium Tax Revenues - Each year the City receives a disbursement of premium tax revenues from the State pursuant to Chapters 175 and 185, Florida Statutes. The disbursement is produced by the state tax on property and casualty insurance premiums collected on policies covering property in Delray Beach. In 2005 the City received $754,420 in Chapter 175 premium tax revenues (firefighters) and $670,489 in Chapter 185 premium tax revenues (police), for a combined total of $1.425 million. The total cost of the police fire pension plan for the current fiscal year is $5.294 million. The City's required contribution is $4.789 million, or 30.87% of covered payroll. A. 1993 Agreement - In 1993 the City entered into an agreement with the police/fire pension board and the police and fire unions concerning the use of premium tax revenues. The 1993 agreement was intended to resolve "all issues related to the use of insurance premium tax revenues" in connection with the police/firefighter pension plan. The agreement provided several additional pension benefits and options for police officers and firefighters, including: 1. A DROP (deferred retirement option plan), whereby members with between 20 and 30 years of service can elect to discontinue participation in the pension plan while remaining employed, and have their pension benefits paid into a DROP account to be distributed to the member in a lump sum at the time the member leaves City employment. 2. An early retirement incentive, whereby the City can offer members with 18 or more years of service two additional years of credited service under the pension plan. 3. A retirement benefit enhancement, whereby eligible retirees receive a benefit increase (COLA) of between 1 % and 4% per year, depending on the amount of premium tax revenues received by the City. The 1993 agreement requires that all premium tax revenues received by the City in excess of the 1993 amount ($504,922 combined) be used to fund the annual benefit increase. B. 1999 Legislation - Legislation passed by the State Legislature in 1999 requires that all premium tax revenues received by a city in excess of the amount received for calendar year 1997 must be first used to meet the minimum benefit requirements of Chapters 175 and 185, and once the minimums are met any additional revenues must be used for extra benefits. However, the police/firefighter retirement plan does not meet one of the required minimum benefits contained in the 1999 legislation: the inclusion of at least 300 hours of ~~~0\~G~- \\\()\()w -~.7.. overtime pay for police officers in the officers' compensation for pension purposes. The benefit enhancement provided by the 1993 agreement is an "extra benefit." c. Position of City - The 1993 agreement conflicts with the 1999 legislation insofar as the use of premium tax revenues is concerned. Under the legislation, all premium taxes received in excess of the 1997 amount must be used to meet the minimum benefit requirements of Chapters 175 and 185, before any premium tax rnonies can be used for "extra benefits." The 1993 agreement, on the other hand, requires that all premium taxes received in excess ofthe 1993 amount be used to fund the annual benefit enhancement. Article I, Section 10, of the Florida Constitution prohibits the enactment of a law that impairs the obligation of a contract. Requiring the City to comply with minimum benefit provisions of the new law would effectively nullify provisions of the 1993 agreement. For this reason, applying the 1999 legislation to require that premium tax revenues be used in a different manner than specified in the 1993 agreement would violate the impairment of the contracts clause of the State Constitution, and thus be unenforceable with respect to the City police and fire pension plan. D. Position of Division of Retirement - The 1999 legislation mandates that all premium tax revenues received by the City in excess of the amount received for calendar year 1997 must be used to meet the 300 hour police overtime requirement before any of the post-1997 increases can be applied to the benefit enhancement. To comply with the Division's position, the police/fire pension board has transferred money from benefit enhancement account and placed it in another account in the pension fund to pay for the overtime requirement. However, the pension plan would have to be amended to provide the police overtime benefit. E. Discussions with Police and Fire Unions - The City has had several meetings with police and firefighter union representatives over the past few months in an effort to resolve the premium tax issue. The parties have been unable to agree on a solution that would continue to provide the benefit enhancement to retirees and meet the police overtime requirement, without resulting in additional cost to the City. F. Options 1. Do nothing. A lawsuit against the City and/or pension board would be possible - perhaps likely. Another possibility: the state could withhold the City's premium tax disbursement. 2. File a declaratory judgment action against the State asking for a judicial declaration of the parties' rights under the 1993 agreement. 2 f . 2. Definition of "Earnings" A. Background - For many years the pension plan defined "earnings" as "basic wages.. .excluding overtime, bonuses and any other non-regular payments. II But the pension board took the position that certification pay and other types of pay should be included in a member's earnings for pension purposes. The City Commission considered the pension board's position in 1993, and decided that the earnings issue should be decided through collective bargaining negotiations. Later that same year the City, pension board and police and fire unions entered into an agreement concerning the use of premium tax revenues. The 1993 agreement includes a release of claims provision in which the pension board and unions released all claims against the City pertaining to the pension plan. Despite the 1993 City Commission action and agreement, the pension board continued to press for inclusion of certification pay and other types of pay in pensionable earnings. Over the years, most types of certification pay were incorporated into basic wages through collective bargaining, and thereby included in the pension formula. B. 2004 Amendments - In 2004, the City Commission approved two pension plan amendments. One amendment provided for an enhanced benefit multiplier (3.5%) that members could elect. The other amended the definition of earnings to include several categories of education pay. C. Current Situation/Options -- More recently the pension board engaged a third-party administrator, and has indicated that the pensions already paid to retirees should be recalculated to reflect the inclusion of certification pay. The pension board's actions leave the City with two options: either accept the board's action or take legal action to stop it. 3. Investment Consultant Issues A. Benchmark Financial Services Report - Last year the pension board engaged Benchmark Financial Services, Inc. to review the investment performance of the pension fund and the actions of investment consultant Smith Barney. In a report that was issued in February 2005 and released to the public in November, Benchmark concluded that: . "Smith Barney has consistently received compensation ...well in excess of the hard dollar fee stated in its consulting contract." . "The contract between Smith Barney and the pension fund does not indicate that Smith Barney acknowledges its fiduciary status with respect to the fund. 3 · Smith Barney has not disclosed the conflicts of interest inherent in the soft dollar payment arrangement it proposed to the fund. · The performance of the fund has never been accurately computed, in that performance has been presented gross, not net, of fees. · "At a minimum, Smith Barney has been negligent in reporting the pension fund's performance." 4. Pension Board Governance Issues o For many years the Delray Beach policelfire pension board has been made up of 9 members: . The Mayor · The Police Chief or designee . The Fire Chief or designee · 2 members appointed by the City Commission · 2 firefighter members elected by firefighters · 2 police officer members elected by police officers o Chapters 175 and 185, Florida Statutes, generally require a 5 member pension board: 2 members elected by plan members; 2 city residents appointed by the City; and a 5th member selected by the other 4. However, the statutes provide an exception where the statutory board would result in a reduction in the percentage of police officer and firefighter members. Because the current board has 4 elected police officer and firefighter members (44% of the board), and the statutory board calls for 2 of 5 elected policelfirefighter members (40%), the composition of the City pension board has remained unchanged. o By law (again, Chapters 175 and 185, F.S.), the pension board is a legal entity capable of suing and being sued, hiring its own attorneys, staff and consultants, and "solely responsible" for administering the pension plan. The Division of Retirement has taken the position that the pension board has the authority to approve its own budget and expenses, including travel expenses. 4 rJTY r' ,,:!l,.~ '"' ,0> ~, "l! ,>:.. ~" ;' .~" .c jl.l,f'J," FIRE-RESC. ~-" DELRAY BEACH ~ AII-AmBrlca City , , III! ~:MORANDU:avid T. Harden, City Manager 1993 2001 FROM: Kerry B, Koen, Fire Chief SUBJECT: Auxiliary Power for Critical Facilities and Essential Services DATE: January 6, 2006 The topic of providing auxiliary power for certain critical facilities to support the continuation of some services during an extended power interruption is being reviewed on an area wide basis. Many cities in Broward County, and at least Royal Palm Beach in Palm Beach County, have begun to address this by enacting ordinances requiring this capability to be part of the site infrastructure requirements to varying degrees for gasoline stations, grocery stores, drug stores, day care facilities, multiple family dwellings served by elevators, and even club house facilities serving larger condominiums. Most communities seem to limit the requirement to new or "substantially improved or expanded" structures. This may not be adequate in a community which is largely built-out. Obviously, if only one, or a few communities in any given area take the lead on this, we might have a new set of problems from traffic congestion caused by those seeking fuel, food or medications if facilities in their communities are not similarly equipped, This suggests that any local action should be accompanied by encouraging like and/or similar action through the Palm Beach Municipal League and the Board of County Commissioners in order to have a more global approach in place for the broad benefit of the public, Some of the benefits of obtaining fuel, food and medications are quite evident, However, I suggest that the discussion include the other occupancies referenced as a result of our findings following the last several stonns, The need for day care following a stonn is very real so that parents can get back to work as soon as practical; non-operable elevators in mid-rise buildings become a physical barrier for those living on the upper floors; and many individuals living in condominiums with common area club houses might benefit from having on-site, centralized refrigeration available to store temperature sensitive medications, etc. I suggest that this item be discussed by our City Commission so that we might have the benefit of their direction on this important topic, \{q.. . . i1S.L Kerry B, K en Fire Chief CC: Chief Schroeder Asst.

This reflects the type of facilities being addressed in Broward County and around the state and some were mentioned at the Wilma after action meeting yesterday. I'm sure there will need to be some tweaking on this, but if we were working from a draft, we might get a handle on it.

We have issued a total of 40,528 parking fines over these three years. This averages out to be 13,509 parking tickets per year, The average collection rate on these tickets is 89,35%. This means that we collect on an average of 12,070 tickets per year, In order to keep the amount of our parking fines reasonable, I recommend that we do not increase our parking fines by more than $5.00 per fine. Ifwe chose to impose this $5,00 surcharge on each fine issued and collected on, we would collect $60,350,00 in surcharges. This amount collected would be almost 1/3 the total amount of what it costs the city for crossing guards (Approximately $195,301.00). The total amount necessary to out source the Crossing Guard Program was approximately $30,000.00, This surcharge would generate double this amount. I hope this is the information you were looking for. I have included two (2) e-mails from other agencies that have implemented this surcharge, Please contact me with any other questions you may have regarding this program, Cc: Major McCollom Captain Phillips Serving with P.R.I.D,E, ~ . " DELRAY BEACH POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: Lieutenant Joseph Milenkovic Special Operations Section FROM: Chief Joseph L. Schroeder October 4, 2005 DATE: SUBJECT: CROSSING yUARD SURCHARGE We recently prepared a proposal for the privatization of our school crossing program. As part of the consideration of that proposal we are tasked with finding a means of financing this endeavor. Florida State Statute 318.21 (11) allows municipalities to impose a surcharge on parking fines for the sole purpose of funding school crossing guard programs. This could be the financial means we need and I am tasking you to study this concept further and make a proposal on how we could implement this procedure in Delray Beach. Your proposal must include the amount of surcharge that would be necessary to cover the expense of our crossing guard program as proposed to the City Manager earlier this year. Please review the previous three years pf parking tickets as the basis for your proposal. A copy of the statute is attached for your convenience. If additional information or guidance is necessary, please feel free to ask.

We are budgeted for 17 crossing guards. Recently the city decided to add 5 crossing guards to accommodate the opening of the new Atlantic High School On June 28, 2005, Human Resources posted the position for crossing guard. To date we have received fuur applications and of the fuur, only one applicant appears to be a strong candidate fur the position. School is scheduled to open August 10, 2005. I do not believe that it is possible fur us to hire and properly train seven new guards to meet our needs. Based on the afurementioned 1iIcts I contacted the tlIlIJlllger of Staffing Connection, Carole Greenicb, to explore the possibility of outsourcing all of our crossing guards. Ms. Greenich assured me that ifwe notify her within the next week, her company would be prepared to meet our needs by the beginning of the school year. These are the fucts regarding hiring Staffing Connection: · They will hire all of our current crossing guards. (Each would get an immediate pay raise) · They utilize unique recruitment skills that makes immediate staffing a reality. · All guards receive mandatory training required by the state of Florida. · They provide daily maintenance of all guards. · They require drug testing and a background check for all guards. . They handle payroll and end of the year tax statements. · They provide liability and workmen's compensation fur all guards. . They provide state certified supervisors. · Each of our guards would receive a weekly salary with benefits. (Including a cost ofliving raise) These are just some of the irmnediate benefits of outsourcing our crossing guards. Currently C.S.O. Blake supervises and trains our current guards. This takes up to 60% ofhis time and makes it impossible for him to assist Community Patrol with any of their needs. Due to our current man-power shortage, C.S.O. Blake would be a tremendous help to Connnunity Patrol Also because Staffing Connection covers aD worlmJen's compensation cases the cities liability would be reduced tremendously. 2 Below you will find the cmrent cost fur employing 22 crossing guards as well as what the cost will be if we outsource this to Staffing Connections. ANNUAL SALARY FOR 22 GUARDS = $117,350 FICA = $8,980 WORKERS COMPENSATION = $7,050 UNEMPLOYMENT = $230 60% OF CSO BLAKE'S SALARY = $23,537 UNIFORMS AND EQUIPMENT = $8,179 TOTAL =$ 165,326 PROPOSED COST FROM STAFFING CONNECTION FOR 22 GUARDS = $ 184, 404 1 SUPERVISOR = $ 10,897 TOTAL =$ 195,301 My research shows that numerous cities in South Florida are using Staffing Connection including Boynton Beach. My research also shows that $8. 89, our current hourly pay rate fur crossing guards is well below surrounding cities. It will need to be increased in the near future which will also increase the cities expense if we continue to try and matmgl: this function. I have attached a copy of the proposal from Staffing Connection fur your review. Please let me know how you would like me to proceed with this matter.

Cochran ImcochranCll'auderhlUpolce.otg) Sent: Tuesday, November 22,20059:10 AM To: M1lenkovlc. Joseph Subject: Parking fines I school guards I went through this last year and how it works here in Broward is likely the same as it does up in Palm Beach. You'll need to contact someone in your county clerk of the court's office and find out how they draw the tines out. In our case, we needed an ordinance that approves the $5 a ticket (I think that is the correct amount) and they will start taking it out. You'll also need to have new parking citations printed (or stickers to go over your old amounts). rve got a contact on the citation printing if you need one. When I got done with our citations and all the things we can charge for, our old $25 parking citation went to $50 bucks even. For the ordinance, you can get the language from Municode or I can send it to you. I worked with our city attorney on it but you can do this yourself if you find the correct person at the clerk: of courts to talk to. They can give you the ordinances that other cities have in Palm Beach and you just parrot those. Our revenues from the school crossing guard fees are about 1I5th of what it costs to provide the service. Also, keep in mind that most finance directors will not allow a 'directed revenue stream' for these revenues rather they will go to the general fund of the city. (same with second dollar funding and UTC revenue). Good luck with it and let me know if you have any questions on it. Mike Michael A.

Also included is an e-mail regarding the additional requirements to qualify the building as a hurricane shelter. The archttect says that building costs should be estimated at $300 per square foot. If we proceed with a 30,000 square foot building as recommended by staff, the $9,000,000 cost will be far beyond what we had budgeted. Building it to hurricane shener standards would increase the cost even more, Certainly the building can be built in phases, and I believe some of the spaces in the program can be significantly reduced in size. One major question is whether to continue the Alzheimer's day care operation. If we do not, then that building can be incorporated into the new facility with some cost reduction, The site plan would also change considerably. Commission direction is requested regarding what services this building should be designed to provide, Staff will be present to answer questions and provide additional information, 1 \!\J 8, lo ./".... ~ 0 E ,L.A.

Taking in to consideration the needs assessment and meeting with Elizabeth Lugo from the Mae Volen Senior Center we have comprised different ideas on what we feel is needed in the faci1ity to serve the citizens. Listed below are the three areas of the center that need to be separate entities for scheduling concerns and for maximmn use of the center, I, Senior Sen>ices Area: Senior services area will have its own entrance to the facility and will be housed in the auditorimn area. Included in this area will be a large worldng kitchen area which will be used for the following programs: lunch program for seniors (Monday-Friday), seminars for seniors, recreational activities, concerts and perfonnances, UanSportation for seniors and resource center. The Parks & Recreation department would like to contract with the Mae Volen Center to assist us in running the senior programs. 2. Fitness Center/Gymnasium Area: This area will have its own entrance due to scheduling. This part of facility will open early in the moming and we want to limit patrons to this area unti1 the rest of the facility is open. Design considerations depend on whether we utilize the Alzheimer building. If utilized this could be a stand alone fitness center or be part of the design of the entire building. Mae Volen has expressed interest to continue the use of this bnilding for their programming. The fitness center will have three separate components with in it cardio, weight machines & free weights. Locker room faci1ities and an aerobics room will also be part of this area. The gymnasimn will have one NCAA size court with two side courts. The side courts will also be lined for volleyball. Bleachers will be on both sides and a drop down curtain will separate the side courts for league play. 3. LobbyIMultipurpose Areas: Lobby area will include the main entrance to the facility with covered drop off area, main reception desk, administrative offices, and lounge area for patrons. The multipurpose area will have large meeting rooms for general meetings, Out of School Program and other reDtals (parties, baby showers, etc). Also in this area of the center will be the computer lab, game room, arts & crafts room and children's daycare facility. Scheduling of all these rooms will done to support all programs using the facility. I also have attached a copy of questions that Roberts Watters Architects needed answered to get a more specific idea ofwhat we wanted in each component of the center. In these questions I outlined ideal room sizes, storage areas, and miscellaneous equipment needed in each area. The total square footage of the building as detenuined by these needs is approximately 30,900 sq. ft. Please review the information and I look forward to your comments. cc: Rodger Ribeiro CPRP- Recreation SuperinIendent Jill Skaggs- Assistant City Engineer File Page 1 of 1 / Weldon, Joseph From: Skaggs, Jill Sent: Monday, November 28, 2005 1 :26 PM To: Weldon, Joseph Subject: FW: Hurricane Shelter information Joe: FYI Jill -----Original Message----- From: Alan [mallto:alanrwa@bellsouth.netj Sent: Wednesday, November 23,200511:07 AM To: Skaggs, Jill SUbject: Hurricane Shelter information Jill, According to the section 8.2.2 of the FEMA 2000 guidance for community shelters the following occupancy ratios are used: 10 s,f.Iperson for refuge-only shelters (only used up to 36 hours); 20 s,f.Iperson for short-term use (up to a few days); 40 s,f.Iperson for long-term use (days to weeks), The city needs to determine if the entire building or only a portion of the building (the gymnasiumfor example) is to be designed as a hurricane shelter, Spme of the items that will affect the building design follows: -The structural design criteria is considerable at 200 mph wind load and will definitely impact construction costs, -If the building or a portion of the building is used as an emergency shelter than a back-up generator and fuel storage should be provided on site, The generator will need to be protected with an enclosure designed to the same criteria as the shelter. -The buildings' total emergency-use occupancy may be greater that its typical occupancy as a community center and may therefore require more exit doors, larger corridors, increased ventilation demands, etc, -The toilet requirements for a hurricane shelter also calls for use of 2 chemical-toilets for use during times of no- power or water service, There may be additional toilet fixture requirements above the normal code-required amount. There are other design considerations that would be spelled out in a complete code analysis once the schematic design of the building has begun, I have scanned a few pages of the FEMA guidebook for your use and attached them to this email.

It is composed of two distinct phases. Phase I will be a new two-story building of approximately 30,000 square feet. It will serve both the seniors and youth of western Delray Beach as a multi-use community center and accommodate a range of city-run programs. Phase II will be the renovation of the existing building on the site. This 6,000 square foot one-story building is currently utilized as an Alzheimer Care Center. At this time the scope of the renovation is unknown, It will be determined once the program for the new building is better defined and the facility layout has begun to take shape.

Planning & Zoning Department MEMORANDUM DELRAY BEACH ~ A1~AmericaCI\y , III I! 1993 2001 ~& o/v I FROM: DATE: RE: r of Planning & Zoning TO: THRU: January 4, 2006 Multi-Space Metering In 2001 the City was considering replacement of the single head meters on Ocean Boulevard and the parking lots located near the beach. Additionally, the City successfully negotiated the lease of the Gleason Street Lot from the First Presbyterian Church to lease 38 parking spaces which are now available to the general public. In August of 2001 the City Manager, based on a recommendation from the Parking Management Advisory Board (PMAB), opted to test multi-space metering technology at the Gleason Street Lot. The lot was metered using Reinhardt USA's Reino Multi-Bay meters. In January 2002 testing was expanded to Atlantic Avenue east of the Intracoastal Waterway and ultimately expanded to the Atlantic Dunes South Parking Lot. During these test periods the replacement of the single head meters was postponed with consideration given to full conversion of the single head meters to multi- space technology. Given the current need to replace the single head meters Staff is preparing an RFP to proceed with the conversion. Staff is requesting direction from the Commission as to what technology should be considered. Attached for your review are various options and scenarios which are briefly summarized below: Pav and Displav: Upon payment at the machine the customer is issued a receipt which must be displayed on the dashboard of the vehicle. The receipt shows the date and duration of paid parking. The two greatest advantages to this technology are, if a meter is malfunctioning a receipt may be purchased at a multiple of machines and, an increase in revenue is guaranteed as additional motorists are unable to capture unused time left from the previous customer. The greatest disadvantage to this technology is the customer must return to the vehicle to place the ticket on the dashboard. Pav bv Space: This technology (used with the Reino System) requires numbering of all spaces. The customer must make note of the space number and pay at the meter by entering the space number in the machine and paying the appropriate fees. Advantages to this technology are customers do not have to return to their vehicle and reduction in "NS,'l City Commission Workshop January 10, 2006 Muiti-Space Metering Page 2 of 2 long term paper cost as receipts are not issued (receipts could be issued if desired). The greatest disadvantages to this technology are loss of revenue if units malfunction (which would involve multiple spaces) or potential for customers to either get cited for non-payment relating to confusion over space numbers or the potential to invalidate someone else's parking payment by entering a wrong space number and reducing their value. The next scenarios Staff needs direction on are payment options and power sources. Coin: Required as an option to accommodate those wanting to park for short periods of time. Currencv: Although this provides a level of convenience, wet money and high humidity create problems with accepting payment increasing cases of machine malfunction. Credit Cards: Increases revenue as customers tend to pay the maximum allowed; is a very convenient form of payment as most people carry credit cards; reduces the handling of cash and transmits money directly to the City's accounts. Debit Cards: Enables the City to create numerous discount and incentive programs for residents and local businesses. Power Sources: The choices of power sources are direct electrical current with battery back-up, solar power, or 100% battery operated. The Reino meters are battery operated. Battery life has been an issue over the years as they do not last long and replacement results in long range expenditures. Solar power might be unreliable depending on the positioning of the machine to the sun or consistently overcast days. Additionally, solar powered units also require a rechargeable battery which requires maintenance and change out at certain intervals. On this issue Staff feels that direct current with battery back-up should be the primary option, supplemented with solar power where direct current could not be used and lastly battery operated if proper correlation to the sun cannot be achieved. Staff contacted several parking professionals to inquire if any surveys were done to receive feedback from the public as to a preference they might have for the various technologies and payment methods. Attached for your review are two responses from Carol Easterling, Access Manager for Palm Beach County and Sue Olley, Parking Administrator for the City of West Palm Beach. Neither have done any studies but they have provided some insight to their experiences (see attached). The City of Houston, Texas is conducting a survey as part of a test program. They have installed different types of technology and are surveying the public on a variety of issues related to their ease of use, convenience, etc. The results of this survey are not yet available.

That said, I will share with you a couple of things I have discovered. One reason to use pay-by-space is to eliminate the need for folks to walk back to their cars to put the receipt on the dash. However, no matter how many signs you have, many folks do not look at their space number before they get to the meter and have to walk back to get the space number. I do think that pay-by-space is more difficult to use. That's just my perspective... Carol >>> "Aronson, Scott" <Aronson@ci.delray-beach.fl.us> 12/27/053:14 PM >>> Hi all, The City of Delray Beach is preparing an RFP for the conversion of single head to Multi-Space metering. Has anyone done or know about any surveys done on the public's preferred multi-space metering systems (Pay by Space v. Pay & Display) and preferred payment options? Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. As usual I am on tight constraints re: timeline. If you have no information, please take a moment to respond accordingly.

We started with pay by space and had a huge litter problem on the beach. We stayed at pay by space but required them to display the ticket. We let them think that it was pay and display. This resolved the litter problem. Wet bills are also an issue. They will gum up the works faster than anything. Since 11m guessing you are using them on AlAI make sure they face away from the sand. During hurricane prep, make sure you wrap them with the shrink wrap stuff they use in airports and take down the solar power masts. The public here in WPB liked the option to use bills and credit cards, VB. just change. Our credit cards are batch processed, and we have not had a problem with bad cards. I would avoid the Guardian meters out of California. We have had problems with them and little or no support. The ParkeonjSchlumberger meters were very good in Hollywood, but at that time only had the ability to report on very long cashier type tape. Balancing was not easy. Jim Taylor at Mackay Meters wrote an article on the pros and cons of multi vs single space meters. It was very good. I have unfortunately deleted it or I would forward it to you. Jim could probably send it to you anyway. It is definitely not a sales pitch and really goes into some interesting thoughts on the subject. Happy New Year!
