Stinson, Chair – P2SARC REPORT DATE: 31stth of October 2017 BACKGROUND: The City of Atlantic Beach created the Parking and Pedestrian Safety Advisory Resource Committee by adopting Resolution 17-08 on the 24th of July 2017. Specific to the purpose of the P2SARC as detailed in Resolution 17-08 Section 2. Purpose, is the charge for the P2SARC to evaluate and make recommendations for revisions to the current parking system. The P2SARC was also charged with making a report and recommendation to the City of Atlantic Beach, City Commission by the 1st of October 2017 or as soon thereafter as is practical. Since its inception and first meeting, the P2SARC has completed a priority setting exercise that includes “first priority” concerns for the City of Atlantic Beach parking stakeholders. Included in this prioritization of the P2SARC focus, was the fact that the City of Neptune Beach is poised to implement paid parking within the boundaries of the City of Neptune Beach including the Beaches Town Center overlay area. The P2SARC has held four meetings in which presentations have been made by Beaches Town Center Agency representatives, one City of Neptune Beach City Councilman and a representative of the paid parking solution provider. The general consensus of the P2SARC at the regularly scheduled 5thmeeting of the of October 2017 was to consider a recommendation for presentation to the City Commission. And subsequent to those presentations, the P2SARC considered the recommendation again at the meeting of the 19th of October 2017. This recommendation is the draft of the proposed recommendation to the City Commission for consideration at Revised Recommendation to Adopt Paid Parking November 2, 2017 JUSTIFICATION: BUDGET: RECOMMENDATION: the regularly scheduled Commission meeting of the 23rd of October 2017. There may be other historical information, not presented in this chronology and not available at the time of the drafting of this report. Adequate and available parking for all stakeholders of the City of Atlantic Beach parking system is in need of improvement. Justification of that need could be seen simply as the creation of P2SARC, or more intrinsically is the fact that the City of Atlantic Beach, its beaches, restaurants and neighboring cities are experiencing more demand for access than ever before. Because of the appeal and attraction of the area, demand now overwhelms availability. The Beaches Town Center Agency and the City of Neptune Beach independent of the others efforts, have done the due diligence to evaluate paid parking solutions. Both groups, through that research, have arrived and chosen the same parking solution provider, Parkeon. The Parkeon solution is currently in use as nearby as the University of North Florida, as well as many other municipalities and locations across the State of Florida and the United States. Parkeon’s system is fully customizable, and scalable to accommodate any number of eventualities or needs. It is believed by the members of the P2SARC that it would be prudent to adopt the same system recommended by these two stakeholders for purposes of continuity and uniformity throughout the beaches. Budgetary impact has not been determined at this time. 1. Adopt the Parkeon parking management solution selected by the Beaches Town Center Agency and the City of Neptune Beach for implementation and management of selected parking areas of the City of Atlantic Beach. 2. The defined area for implementation of the Parkeon system could be the area considered as the Beaches Town Center overlay and City provided parking adjacent to or supporting the Beaches Town Center. Revised Recommendation to Adopt Paid Parking November 2, 2017 a. Alternative areas to consider for inclusion into the initial implementation of the Parkeon system would be: i. 10th Street from Ocean Blvd. to the beach access; ii. 18th Street from Seminole Road to the beach access stairway and walkover; iii. 19th Street from Seminole Road to the beach access. b. Because parking “creep” into adjacent residential neighborhoods, as a result of paid parking within the Beaches Town Center overlay, is almost a certainty, inclusion of these adjacent neighborhoods into the paid parking program would minimize the affect of “creep”. i. Consider implementing the paid parking program into any residential neighborhood within two (2) city blocks of the Town Center overlay; ii. Utilize the fully customizable aspects of the Parkeon system to manage the fees imposed by charging residents of the City of Atlantic Beach a minimal (if any fee) and visitors a fee structure that discourages parking within the adjacent neighborhoods. 3. Create a Joint Task Force of one (1) elected official from each municipality, one (1) public safety official from each municipality, one (1) member of the finance department of each municipality, and, up to three (3) members of the Beaches Town Center Agency (to include a Parkeon representative). This task force would determine fee structures within the Town Center overlay, implementation timelines, system management responsibilities, profit distribution methods, and other commonalities between the three stakeholders, the City of Atlantic Beach, the City of Neptune Beach and the Beaches Town Center Agency. Finally, measure / evaluate the success of the paid for parking system. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Resolution 17-08 2. An overlay map of the Beaches Town Center 3.
