Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Chuck Winn, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Construction Agreement with Lutey Construction for the remodel of the
Streamline Bus waiting area into offices for the Parking Division and a
smaller indoor waiting area and public restroom for Streamline.
MEETING DATE: February 25, 2019
AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent
RECOMMENDATION: Ratify City Manager’s signature on the Construction Agreement
with Lutey Construction for the remodel of the former Streamline
waiting area in the Bridger Park Parking Garage..
BACKGROUND: The City constructed the Bridger Park Parking Garage in 2009. An important
part of the project was the addition of retail condominium spaces along three sides of the garage
which allowed private investment in the project and brought mixed use occupancy to the structure.
The City owns one condominium unit which has been used by HRDC as a waiting area and public
restrooms for bus patrons at the Streamline Transfer Station since 2009. HRDC has been
responsible for maintenance and upkeep of the waiting area and Transfer Station.
Over the years, the waiting area has been subjected to vandalism and other types of undesirable
activity. Last year, police calls to the waiting area reached a level that the Police Department closed
the waiting area on President’s Day and strongly recommended it not be reopened until a plan for
security could be implemented.
Since that time, we have explored various options to increase security and safety at the site. We
believe the best plan is to relocate the Parking Enforcement Division from the Stiff Professional
Building to the remodeled space. This will accomplish three important things;
1. It will provide a parking staff presence at the garage which is our busiest public parking
asset;
2. Having the Parking Division staff on-site will allow more oversight of the smaller waiting
area and public restroom; and,
3. It will free up critical space in the Stiff Professional Building for additional employees
authorized in this year’s budget but not yet hired due to space constraints.
PROJECT: The project will install a wall, window and doorway to divide the waiting area into
two areas; 1) a new smaller bus waiting space with a unisex public restroom, and 2), a new office
for the Parking Manager. We will open the wall between a utility room and the storage room of

the garage parking operations area to provide access between the two spaces and to make room for
the four parking enforcement officers. There will be associated electrical and plumbing work done
with the project. One-way glass will be installed between the Parking Manager space and the
waiting area to allow for visual monitoring of the space. The waiting area will be opened during
regular business hours Monday through Friday.
FISCAL EFFECTS: Funding for the remodel will come from the currently budgeted Parking
Division contribution for the Stiff Building Remodel ($37,031). Additional funding for the
modular office furniture will come from the Parking Division reserve funds.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None
ALTERNATIVES: As identified by the Commission.
