Awhile. I believe that evaluating the parking tax and parking rates. I know we had discussionless madam stele attorney with your office about the residential ping rate and how that applies to which parts of the city or the whole city. Come had ref now that would generate. I hope we can schedule a briefing on that at in point in the near future. That might dovetail with the budget process for next year. So we could again take advantage of the strides we made on the cost side and efficiency side and see whether there are things to do without knocking down pat republicanage much but on the revenue side that might help go to the order. I think this is a whorth while discussion and electric at elasticity of price and inflation at the same time i hate it [inaudible]. To that point i think this is a worthwhile thing to endeavour into. Any other comments . Director yekutiel. I have 3 questions. One the 10 thousand dollars Management Fee. I wonder since we have done the w to up grid the facility and modernize them and automate them, do you worry paying a blanket 10 thundz an among may be over kill do we know how much it is costing and some cases could it upon lets than 10 thousand dollars a month if they are not all are staffed like before . A Management Fee covers their over head, back office needs to support everybody working out there. We did make you know analyze and consider the change in the way they are operated you know versus 20 lefsh to now. For way of example in the 3 contracts 2000 or 2011 we had 3 groups each 8 thousand dollars a month management de feo that was 24,000 per month and for 16 facilities at the time. And as we added a few when the nonprofits went away, those Management Fees grew a bit. Probably today im sorry we are planning at least 30,000 a month in Management Fees today. It is more efficient and the groups are larger. We accounted for that in proposing the 10 thousand dollars. We will save about a third the day the new contracts start. 9 in group a and 12 in b. How Many Companies manage them getting the 10 thousand y. There are 2. One company have the group contract. Allows parking. The group a and, 10 thousand dollars per lot or, no a flat fee for the group. Paying 10 thousand dollars to manage 9 fasils. Correct. And for 12 that sounds more reasonable then and there 10 thousand dollars per facility. For the entire group. Second thing are we planning on acquiring large are garages . I think i asked this last time. Are there more in the pipeline . Im jumping off of director hum jeffers comments. We dont have a lot of great means of new revenue quickly this is a way. Are there other plans tom or welcome to address this question. Good afternoon. Tom mc guire. We dont have money on the program or plans to build new garages the system with transit first policy. We work with other City Property ordinance like the port and rec p when come in and manage the garages. We pass the revenue through to those owners. So there is an only way in which we would add to the portfolio. I did not money to construct and divide. Are we in this might be opening up a pandoras box the 800 car lot in Golden Gate Park is that looking to get revenue from . This is for the voter this is fall. I dont know. I dont want to jump the gun. I say that we have a great relationship with rec park and managed rec ps facilities in the civic center and union square with professional sxichl cleanliness. We get some of the revenue. We get management costs. Thank you. And the next question is about the topic of conversation around the city which is the seemingly semi permanent move to remote w for downtown workers. And largest garages are downtown. And while im also happy and surprised to see revenue is 2020 levels, im nervous about what it means for the revenue longer term if the lots are not filled with Office Workers coming to the city. Dwloen is something to bake in the contract sings the de feo is for 2. But i dont know if you have thoughts about that or the Fee Structure we put in place has resilience that might take into account what might 3040 drop in park usage or if we have did thea how many of the vehicles visitors and locals. To clarify. The mta staff, my work unit we have control overnight rates and the garages. Venders operate at our direction. We approve the staffing level and approve the upon maintenance budgets and arc fruf the rates the venders dont set rates they make recommendations to us of course we want any recommendations they have based on experiences. But approval is with us. In terms of do we know what we been what is going on out there. One thing the pandemic encourages us to do we stood up an among in the fan dem and i can conditions i know every morning 10 a. M. What the garages did yesterday. We have online a google sheet everybody populates we know and we compare that year over year and comparing years. I can tell you as of yesterday, we are pretty consistent low in the summer here to a point where transient parking daily parkers in the monthly about 80ish prepandemic number of tickets if there were a million tickets 800,000. In terms of ref now we are more like 9293 . Fewer are coming but staying longer. So the average Ticket Process is up. And you know we dont have super granular data but our experience tells us this you have Office Workers who used to be month low parkers while they were showing up upon 300 bucks now im going in 2 days a week i will buy the machining low pass i will be a daily parker. How has this netod revenue the extent people moves to daily that he is better for us. I dont make transyenlt. Perhaps i should cope my mouth shut then. Joy will give an example. We are i have in the heard any off the wall ideas come out to us yet but thats manage we want to understands as it feels like the situation of Office Workers get more stable and predictable where now it is mobile and all over the place. You are seriously considering to designing new programs that work for them. With the commission i would love i think it would be necessary for you to get a report may be a year or year and a half to see how changing work handles affecting parking. Our department lendses the parking best of your knowledges and use the revenue to run the Transit System. It is important for us as a board to understands how this may be asciiing the garage usage. You skwoo thank you. Director eaken. Thank you. Madam chair im hearing diving deep in parking issues. I will second that request. The tax rate and source of revenue and check in a year that sounds great. At the top of the staff report, there is a bit of an italian with the mta plan. And the 2 items here the top of the staff report are positioning mta for Financial Success and parking policies for areas served by transit. Is the whole city. Shall be designed to encourage public by alternative modes of transportation. I wanted to know if you could talk about the 2 Strategic Plan goals and the second is how we are parking policies encouraging transit. Addressing of the first is straightforward you could see by our depiction of the Financial Success we are getting more deficient as we go to the extend we have to have expenditures to support ref now we work to have the expenses controlled as possible. So we provide as much net income as possible to support muni and other prospects. In terms of well served by transit. In my minds, this means in i mentioned through that quarter low rate and review process. There is a very hard data part of this. What is it or monthly the [inaudible] what is the rate structure of come peeth facilities in the your. In terms of what pricing how how easy it is for people to get it an area is something that come in as art part rather than seasonals. I have been working in the same role for 12iers, there are pressure depending on that is going on in the economy near lower rates in our Retail Centers whether union scare that is understandsable in areas that are well served by transit i think that come in to the consideration of how you you known likewise and respond to such requests. You know need to understand what percentage of people to be part of the larger mta. We reach out to colleagues in the Planning Group in street division, for example, what is the data about transit . I had this locked into this question years ago. Now where we started asking for and looking at what is the bart exits number of bart exits at powell and montgomery stations. Versus how many people come and park in the garages in union square. Customers how many are driving versus how many of them are using transit . So we and whenever we get requests about rates we have to consider is when we make money and when we get common to suggest we support transit. Yes, we might be charging customers are pay and someone could argue they are paying too much this money is going to support the Transit System and brings others when dont have a car or dont think that driving is the way they want to go there. It is a balancing act there. Okay. May be take that conversation off line. The other question i had was related to the rates you spoke to that concludes my questions y. Thank you. Director hinze as a request. Thank you. This is a question that because we dont see it often i think contracts [inaudible] trimming down and maintaining an equal level of service. So the one area is to touch on is garage security. I talked about this before [echo] they are out there. I want to [inaudible] what the content is what how we make sure ore our garages are secure. Sure. Well, just to be frank, it is fair that as we have moved forward and made our operations efficient this meant fewer people are at some of our garages. We have good site on our garages with all of the hd cameras that feedback and access to. It is does embolden people who are may be looking for an easy way to mash a window and steel a purse. They see people and more of a target. That is an on going challenge. So in terms of working with our venders again. Sgr just to repeat the venders are working at our direction and in partnership with us in terms how they implement all policies they are working to address security and any other policy in the garages in terms of what type of staffing they are using. What the approved budget is for staffing. We are you know we take the lead in the primary most intanses the lead in working with the police department. And cases with rec and park ranger and facilities for settingum protocols for escalating and response to issues. I would like to say that while these certain dbi and other you know use and behaviors do happen i think a certain amount is inevitable in the large public facilities they are public. And you know not like someone is walk nothing the door. When are you doing here . The default is a person has the right to be there. They could be walking through and taking a short cut to the other side versus a private facility who can just try to keep people from walking in. It is a challenge. Yes. Why but we have and a good you know part mership and plan with venders and the various e mails sworn officers that assist us. It is a challenging issue and not something you bring to zero. It is a top of mind all the time. And always look for example suggestions from this board and all our various stake holders for strategies for consideration on how to make that experience better for customers. Thank you. I wanted give you the opportunity to speak to it. It sounds like you are doing what you can given the circumstances of being a public garage. Thank you. Director. I made the motion. Public comment.

I would have included that in the presentation and the staff report. And perhaps in the future it could be included and distinguished the mta facilities for rec and park facilities.

I would be interested in mark and the team sters perspective on this issue. Perhaps hoe is listening. I appreciate your remark.
