Title
Resolution amending Common Council File Number 070976 relating to a parking study of the greater downtown area and appropriating funds for this purpose.

Analysis
On January 15, 2008, the Common Council adopted Common Council File Number 070976 directing the Department of City Development (DCD) to prepare a study to determine the needs for parking and investment in public parking facilities in the greater downtown area in conjunction with updating the Downtown Plan. The resolution also directed the Department of Public Works to reimburse DCD up to $30,000, with funds from the 2008 Parking Fund, for costs related to preparing the study. In January 2008, DCD issued an RFP to solicit proposals to conduct the parking study. After reviewing the proposals and selecting the finalists, DCD determined that the cost of the proposals were significantly higher than what was budgeted and in order to complete a parking study additional funding would be required from, DCD accounts, community partners and the Parking Fund. This resolution amends Common Council File 070976 and directs the Department of Public Works to transfer up to $50,000 from the 2008 Parking Fund, rather than the $30,000 originally requested, for costs related to preparing a study of parking and investment in public parking facilities in the greater downtown area.
