The City desires to conduct a Parking Solutions Study Project making use of various parking studies provided to the City over the past several years. The City is requesting proposals from consultants who might consider themselves or their firm to be “out-of-the-box” thinkers who have the capacity to present solutions utilizing a variety of sources rather than preparing a study of the issue, the City is looking for solutions. The purpose of this new Parking Solutions Study Project is to leverage the findings of previous studies, conduct an Intercept Parking Survey of parking users and provide specific parking solution recommendations. The outcomes from the recommendations should expect to increase or redesign parking in the Study Areas that will encourage tourists and locals to patron local shops and restaurants who are otherwise deterred from these areas because of the lack of parking. The increase of easily accessible parking will support the economic sustainability of the local businesses and allow them to potentially expand creating new jobs and stimulating economic viability in the study areas.
The Outcome from the project should answer the following questions:
- In reviewing current and future planned uses in the Study Areas, would a new Parking Management Plan (PMP) increase parking to meet the current and future needs? If yes, what is the recommended PMP?
- If a new Parking Management Plan would not meet current or future parking needs, what is the recommended parking solution(s)?
- What changes to the City’s current land use or city codes do the policy makers need to make to improve parking conditions within the City?
The selected Consultant will be asked to utilize all previously conducted studies to develop an effective solution to answer the questions above for each study area(see RFP). Consultants should submit a proposal based on a preliminary review of those studies to make an accurate determination of the cost for this requested Parking Solutions Study.
For consultant reference and review, the previously completed studies are listed below in order of completion:
