Resolution 2023-139
City Council Agenda Statement ♦ 1 r
Meeting Date: December 18, 2023
To: City Council
Through: Kat Sorensen,. City Manager
From: Melanie Hauze, Parks and Recreation Director
Subject: Resolution 2023-139: Authorizing The City Manager To Enter Into A
Contract With T2 Upsafety For The Purchase Of Parking Enforcement
Software and Equipment For 3 Years For A Total Cost Of $37,021.00And
Partnering With Upsafety For Collections Services And Appropriating
Funds
Background and justification:
Parks and Recreation is tasked with managing the public parking lots in the Harbor, including the
North, South, Northeast, South Launch, Uplands and Center lots. Parks and Recreation currently
uses T2 pay stations in our lots for people to purchase passes each day:
Enforcement ability for enforcing the parking rules and regulations are in need of updating.
Currently, we have no way to track citations or pursue non-payment It is also difficult to track all
the vehicles in our lots and ensure they are in compliance. This can lead to misunderstandings and
frustrations.
The Parks and Recreation Department is requesting to enter into a contract with Upsafety to
provide the necessary equipment to enforce parking regulations in the Harbor_ Upsafety connects
with our T2 pay stations, allowing employees to scan license plates and determine if a car has paid
to park in our lots. This streamlines the enforcement ability of our employees.
Upsafety also allows Parks and Recreation to "Electronically Chalk" Vehicle tires, reducing the
need to touch any vehicles in the lots. Upsafety citations have time and GPS stamped photos of
citations, ensuring citations are written to the right vehicle and owner-.
Upsafety offers a collections service to clients. Upsafety is a certified debt collection agency. This
allows the City to ensure payment is made on citations issued
This purchase will be made utilizing Seward City Code 66.10.030 (D) which authorizes the
purchase of electronic data processing software and hardware systems and communications
equipment.
Funds for this purchase are available in the Parking Enterprise Fund and are not budgeted.
