BACKGROUND: There are one hundred and forty two (142) businesses within the VPD boundries. Approximately forty five (45) of these businesses participate in the monthly and daily parking permit program on Lots A and C. Of the forty five participating, thirty five buy monthly permits and twelve of the thirty five buy dailys. There are five businesses that buy dailys only. Our records indicate that during the 1984-85 annual parking permit program, one hundred and four (104) employees of the VPD businesses bought permits to park on the streets of the impacted area, which would indicate that these employees do not utilize employee parking on the lots. ANALYSIS: There has been no increase in the cost of validation stamps for at least twelve years, to my knowledge. The City of Redondo Beach charges 25 cents for validation stamps. In addition, as the merchants become increasingly more concerned that there be adequate customer parking, it does not seem unreasonable that part-time employees pay $2.25 for daily parking, current- ly full time employees pay $30.00 monthly. Finally, staff also supports restricting daily employee parking permits to Lot C. We believe that Lot "A" is closer to the business district and is the more popular lot for shoppers and customers of the banks, restaurants, etc. Of course monthly permit parkers would continue to be able to park on Lot "A". General Services Director Concur: 12b OLYMPIC PARKING 115 W. Torrance Blvd. Redondo Beach, CA 90277 June 14, 1985 City of Hermosa Beach 1315 Valley Drive Hermosa Beach, CA 90254 Attn: Ms. Joan Noon Director, General Services Dear Ms. Noon: After completing four weeks of on-the-job training on parking lots A & C we have found two additional ways to increase revenue and streamline operating procedures: 1) A. Increase the cost of merchant validation stamps from 10 cents to 25 cents per 1/2 hour. B. Eliminate employee use of validation stamps (see paragraph three below) It is quite evident in our daily operations that beach goers and part-time employees are gaining access to merchant validation stamps through friendly employers or employees and misusing the stamps. These two changes will alleviate these abuses. The price increase will also bring the validation program in line with minimum validation rates within the industry, and increase revenue to the City. 2) During the summer peak period only, increase the daily employee stamp from $1.50 to $2.25, limit the number that any one employee can purchase in a month to eight stamps, and restrict their use to parking lot C only. The purpose of the daily employee stamp is to accommodate the part-time employee. However, at $1.50 per day it can be used by full time workers since 20 days constitutes a work month, thus impacting the City and the parking lot with 20 times the paper work. Full time workers should be buying a monthly pass. I look forward to working with you in developing and maintaining a parking program that maximizes service and minimizes complaints, while offering a fair financial return to the City. Sincerely, Kenneth J. Handman President
