Walker Parking Consultants will review the number of parking spaces required by PBR, along with the site constraints and other program issues related to the garage. Next, they will evaluate alternative parking layouts, traffic circulation, ramping systems, vehicular entry/exits and pedestrian portals and prepare conceptual drawings and cost estimates. Finally, they will then compare and contrast the options and develop a strategy with the City to meet the parking requirements for the PBR. This study is needed to finalize the City's parking commitment with PBR and will take approximately three weeks. FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost of these services will not exceed $12,000 plus $3,000 for contingencies. Funding for this study will come from the one -half cent sales tax fund for the PBR project.
