Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: April 12, 2004
From: Karin Sturdy, Parks & Recreation Director
Through: Phil Shealy, City Manager
Agenda Item: Parking Permit Fee Increase
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION
During the 2002 budget work sessions, the daily parking fee was increased from $3 to $5
dollars for the 2003, last season. No changes were made to the permit / passes fees at that
time. However, during the 2003 budget work sessions, the following changes were
recommended to Council and were included into the 2004 Parking Budget. Since parking
fees are set by resolution, according to Seward City Code, action is required at this time to
amend the fees, per our current budget.
2003 2004
Slip-holder seasonal pass $25 $30
Employee seasonal pass $25 $30
Vehicle with trailer $50 $60
Visitors pass n/a $60
’
You might recall that during the work sessions, we proposed a new category be defined to
allow the regular visitor an invitation to continue to use Seward services, rather than take
his/her business to another community. This new category is presented as a marketing tool,
an incentive to entice the weekender to stay and return often. This is the customer who
would use our local services often, but refuses to pay $5 per day for these many, regular
visits. We feel it is in the communitys best interest to encourage this visitor and offer this
’
pass.
CONSISTENCY CHECKLIST: Yes No
1. Comprehensive Plan
2. Strategic Plan
3. Not Applicable n/a
FISCAL NOTE:
The proposed changes in fee increases are included within the approved, 2004 Parking
budget.
Approved by Finance Department
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council approve Resolution 2004 - amending the City parking fees
schedule for City-owned parking lots as listed in Attachment A.
