BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Not applicable
DISCUSSION
Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 10.62.010.B authorizes the City to contract with a duly qualified company approved by the Chief of Police to provide enforcement of infraction violatio ns of specified chapters of the Chula Vista Municipal Code: 10.52, stopping, standing, and parking; 10.56, parking meters, parking meter zones and permit parking; and 10.60, loading zones. The City has contracted for parking management and enforcement services in the Downtown Parking District since 2009. The City Council awarded Ace Parking the initial contract for parking management and enforcement services in the Downtown Parking District in 2009, and Ace Parking has provided these services since. The Downtown Parking District is the only parking district in which the City contracts for parking enforcement. The Downtown Parking District is bordered by E Street, Del Mar Avenue, H Street and Garrett Avenue. It provides approximately 1, 500 parking spaces through surface parking lots, street metered spaces, and a parking structure.
The agreement between the City and Ace Parking for parking management and enforcement services was amended in July 2020 to extend services until June 2021. Due to unexpected delays and changes in staffing, the Finance Department would like to extend the current arrangement to allow time to complete an RFP (Request for Proposal) solicitation. Ace Parking scope of wor k will remain the same, and the Finance Department would like to enter a stop-gap contract with ACE independently through the end of fiscal year 2022 to allow services to continue until completion of the RFP process.
It is anticipated that the revenues gen erated in the Downtown Parking District are sufficient to cover the $275,000 expense of the contract that is appropriated in the Parking Meter Fund.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the property holdings of the City Council and has found that, Mayor Salas has real property holdings within the boundaries of the property which is the subject of this action. However, to the extent that any decision would have a reasonably foreseeable financial effect on the member’s real property, the effect would be nominal, inconsequential, or insignificant. Consequently, pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 2, sections 18700 and 18702(b), this item does not present a real property-related conflict of interest under the Political Reform Act (Cal. Gov't Code § 87100, et seq.).
Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any City Council member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision-maker conflict of interest in this matter.
CURRENT-YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
The expenditures for this agreement are appropriated in the Parking Meter Fund. It is anticipated that the revenues generated in the Downtown Parking District are sufficient to cover the $275,000 expense of the contract.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
None.
