Additional References A. Project Summary Rick Williams Consulting (RWC), in collaboration with the Bozeman Parking Commission, Downtown Bozeman Partnership, Downtown Tax Increment Finance District Board, City of Bozeman Parking Division Staff, and interested organizations will assess parking conditions within the defined study area – the B3 Zoning and the Downtown Urban Renewal Districts. The evaluation will analyze the parking inventory and most recent parking occupancy data. The project will look at the ebb and flow of parking utilization, understanding the surplus and deficits within the system to identify potential opportunities and challenges. A review of parking policy and code will give a broad context and understanding of decision-making to the evaluation. The primary goal for the RWC team is to bring a holistic approach to this project which will be driven by data and industry best practices. With 52 years of combined parking experience, the Rick Williams Consulting team brings an unmatched understanding of downtown parking, transportation and urban redevelopment to this project. This assures completion of a study that is based in: A clear understanding of the array of access needs for this unique area of Bozeman. Hands-on experience in owning, managing/operating and developing both public and private parking assets (on-street, surface lots and garages). Direct experience in the development and implementation of parking regulations and guidelines for (sub) urbanized areas that are uniquely tailored to the economic development and growth vision for those areas. Successful and comprehensive experience in data collection/analysis for parking capacity, utilization, turnover and demand in cities of all sizes. Strong understanding and experience with scaling customized ‘right-sized’ parking facilities through true cost proformas to ensure short and long term financial success. Current and relevant experience in identifying revenue sources for funding and sustaining parking management programs and developing parking systems. Direct experience in the development and implementation of successful transportation demand management (TDM) programs that complement and facilitate sound parking management, particularly in downtown settings. Demonstrated success in developing parking management plans for communities that are both codified by City Council/City Leadership as well as implemented. Page | 2 Rick Williams Consulting has extensive experience in CBD parking across the Northwest, in dozens of communities. Recent parking management plans have been developed for Everett, Kent, Kirkland, Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma and Vancouver, WA, Oxnard, San Francisco, Redwood City and Ventura, CA as well as Beaverton, Bend, Hillsboro, Hood River, Oregon City and Salem, Oregon. B. Company Description/Capability Few parking consulting firms bring the combination of policy and planning expertise and hands-on experience in operating parking systems that RWC offers to a client. From establishment and operation of Portland, Oregon’s award winning SmartPark parking system to management of a portfolio of parking structures supporting downtown commercial office/retail assets to development of unique parking plans and strategies for a diverse mix of downtowns through the country, RWC understands the intricacies associated with “self sustaining parking districts” and systems. The firm has direct experience in managing, operating, designing, building and financing individual parking assets to complex parking systems. Over the years, RWC has successfully shared that experience with public and private clients to develop policies, programs and operations that work, are successful and self-sustaining. Rick Williams Consulting has conducted numerous parking studies and plans in cities around the country. It is our belief that parking should enhance and support the surrounding land uses, not the other way around. RWC takes pride in the fact that the majority of studies completed for cities have received unanimous approval by City Councils and are in the process of implementation. RWC, an S-Corp established in 2014, was for many years affiliated with BPM Development, LLC a 50- year-old real estate firm located in downtown Portland. BPM is a full service commercial real estate firm with expertise in building management, development, construction and consulting in all phases of commercial property development. BPM also owns Star Park, a parking management company that owns and/or operates 27 parking facilities in Portland, Oregon. RWC has been providing parking and transportation demand management consulting services since 1995.

D. Relevant Project Experience / References Five project examples are provided below, additional references are provided in Attachment B. SALEM, OREGON (2006 – present) Downtown Parking Study and Plan Reference: Sheri Wahrgren Sara Bratcher Downtown Revitalization Manager Parking Policy and Downtown Project Manager Urban Development Department Urban Development Department 503.588.6178 ext. 7595 503.588.6178 ext. 6471 Salem Population: 154,637 Number of Employees: 45,000 Rick Williams Consulting completed the development of a comprehensive parking management plan for two areas of Salem’s downtown. Plans were developed for the “core retail zone” and the State Capitol Mall. Both areas are unique and have required development of zone-based plans designed to address unique issues and access dynamics associated with each area. The study was based on a very extensive utilization/capacity and turnover study of nearly 10,000 on and off-street parking stalls. The full plan was unanimously adopted by the Salem City Council in December 2006. Since completion of the original study RWC has been retained to continue assistance in plan implementation and measurement and is currently assisting the City in both on-going data collection and technical assistance related to new parking development, financial performance and operations planning. OREGON CITY, OREGON (2008 – 2009, 2012) Downtown Parking Study and Plan Reference: Nancy Busch, City Parking Manager 503-496-1571 Oregon City Population: 31,859 Number of Employees: 12,000 RWC conducted a comprehensive parking study for the City of Oregon City. The study involved two unique areas of the downtown that are targeted for commercial and residential growth (the “Historic Downtown” and the “Bluff area”). RWC conducted separate inventories in each area and compiled a City of Bozeman, MT – Downtown Comprehensive Parking Plan Page | 7 very comprehensive data base of parking activity. The process also involved facilitation of a 20 member Parking Advisory Committee (PAC) that served as an oversight group for the project. The study also provided for extensive outreach to City Council, the Clackamas County Board of Commissioners, the downtown Main Street Association and neighborhood associations. The PAC completed a visioning process that led to development of Consensus Themes for Parking and Guiding Principles. The stakeholder process informed strategy development, demand forecasting for future development and identification of future “parking opportunity sites” and funding sources. RWC produced an implementation plan of over 20 strategies coordinated into a near, mid and long-term implementation schedule. GRESHAM, OREGON (2011) Centers Parking Strategy Reference: John Dorst, Transportation Division Manager City of Gresham (503) 618-2525 Gresham Population: 105,600 Number of Employees: 9,500 Rick Williams Consulting is preparing a Centers Parking Strategy for the City of Gresham, Oregon. The City’s goal for the project is to assess the state of current parking needs in the Downtown, Civic and Rockwood Centers and evaluate parking management strategies to ensure best usage of existing parking. In addition, the City recognizes that its desire for greater density of both housing and employment will likely lead to the need to transition from surface lots to structured parking facilities (garages) in the future. Understanding how parking structures fit into the urban design of these three development areas and how design, cost, policy (and the City’s role in each) can affect their success is the focus of this study. EVERETT, WASHINGTON (2007 – 2009) Downtown Parking Study Reference: Ryan Sass, City Engineer, Engineering & Public Services City of Everett (425) 257-8800 Everett Population: 103,101 Number of Employees: 31,000 Rick Williams Consulting teamed with Barney & Worth to conduct an in-depth analysis of the downtown Everett parking system. The Everett project involved extensive public outreach, public open houses and forums, electronic polling, presentations to the Mayor and City Council and data collection from 1,900 on-street stalls and 13 downtown parking facilities. Additional analyses were conducted in “high occupancy” parking nodes as well as extensive analysis of Everett’s regulatory code and enforcement program. A comprehensive parking management strategy was developed and approved by City Council. Since completion of the study, Rick Williams Consulting and Barney & Worth have been retained to assist in plan implementation and further analysis regarding siting, development and financing of future parking facilities. BEAVERTON AND HILLSBORO, OREGON (2007 - 2009) Downtown Parking Solutions Study and Plan Reference: John Southgate Margaret Middleton Economic Development Manager Senior Transportation Planner City of Hillsboro City of Beaverton Page | 8 (503) 681-6229 (503) 526-2424 Beaverton Population: 89,015 Number of Employees: 5,400 Hillsboro Population: 91,652 Number of Employees: 8,200 Rick Williams Consulting in partnership with Parametrix, completed Parking Solutions Studies and Plans for both the cities of Beaverton and Hillsboro, Oregon. The studies involved comprehensive data collection efforts and in-depth public outreach efforts. Both cities provided broadly represented citizen advisory committees to the project as well as multiple presentations to Traffic and Planning Commissions, City Council and public open houses. Both studies were unanimously approved by the respective City Councils. Rick Williams Consulting was retained by the City of Beaverton in 2008 to conduct an analysis of parking impacts associated with the Beaverton Farmers Market. Additionally, Rick Williams Consulting was retained in 2009 to provide analysis and parking strategy development for the area including, and adjacent to, the Beaverton Round. E. Outline of Services Rick Williams Consulting’s approach is grounded in a “Main Street” philosophy and a clear understanding of the economics of demand and access in emerging and revitalizing downtowns. From that foundation, we recognize and understand that Bozeman’s current and anticipated system of access must be developed in a manner that serves the unique demand variations affecting this area of Bozeman. While the parking industry maintains a large tool box of “best practices,” the tool box for this plan needs to be tailored to Bozeman’s place in time (current environment) and future vision (growth and changing conditions). With regard to parking and access, RWC will derive the current dynamics of Bozeman’s parking system through a review of Bozeman’s past parking studies and current parking inventory as well as grounding in recently completed planning efforts (e.g., Downtown Improvement Plan (2013) and the Downtown Urban Renewal Plan (1994)). Also, recent activity and future development opportunities are in play in this area of Bozeman, which will bring additional demands on the overall parking supply. This study will be sensitive to this unique quality and provide strategies to manage demand, maximize use of available supply and plan for future parking development. TASKS ITEMS Task 1: Analyze Parking Inventory & Review of Past Parking Data The study will commence with a visit to Bozeman to meet with City staff, the Bozeman Parking Commission (BPC), Downtown Bozeman Partnership (DBP), Downtown Tax Increment Finance District Board, and other interested stakeholders. During this trip we will finalize a work scope (and study area), tour the study area and collect any pertinent background materials needed to familiarize ourselves with relevant parking and land use development plans. City of Bozeman, MT – Downtown Comprehensive Parking Plan Page | 9 Parking can be a divisive and emotional issue in emerging and redeveloping downtowns. As economic development takes place, the dynamics of parking change tremendously. This dynamic leads to difficult questions regarding access, convenience and the culture of how downtown is currently accessed and how it will be accessed in the future. Citizen input, involvement and “buy-in” are critical. Task 1 will complete the following work elements: Hold kick-off meeting(s) with agencies’ staff and applicable stakeholders and stakeholder groups. Finalize work scope and clarify the defined study area. Review background materials, parking and transportation studies (2010, 2012, & 2014 Parking Studies), redevelopment plans, city code, statistical data, land use plans, and other information sources. Analyze current Parking Inventory (Public & Private). Two bi-weekly updates & one technical memorandum. Tasks 2: Identify Parking Surplus/Deficits During Tasks 2, RWC will map/chart an inventory of the parking supply in downtown Bozeman, understanding the inventory make-up of both on and off-street facilities. The inventory will be followed by a comprehensive historical analysis of the parking occupancy, from which surpluses and deficiencies will become apparent within the parking system. Tasks 2 will involve the following work elements: Develop a GIS based inventory map of the on and off-street parking supply. Create GIS heat maps that display historical parking occupancy data for the downtown study area by blockface. Determine the parking surpluses and deficiencies within the parking system by block. Two bi-weekly updates & one technical memorandum. Task 3: Review of Parking Policies & Code A comprehensive review of current parking policies, as well as code requirements will be conducted in Task 3. By understanding the policy and code, huddles and opportunities may present themselves within the Bozeman parking system. These measurements will be used to evaluate and calibrate parking practices and policies for downtown Bozeman. RWC prides itself in its ability to work with jurisdictions to develop parking management strategies that are grounded in sound, accurate data, and strong policy/code. Page | 10 Task 3 elements include: Analyze current parking policy and code to determine challenges and opportunities, and needed future changes based upon Task 1 & 2 – review of data and parking surpluses and deficits. One bi-weekly update & one technical memorandum. Task 4: Determine Future Parking Needs Task 4 looks at Bozeman population and land use development trends over the next 3, 5, and 10 years. With the resurgences of the economy, Bozeman as well as many downtowns are experiences a reemergence, and as a result, are dealing with transportation and parking issues. The RWC will understand these concerns by looking at trends, and determine ‘next steps’ in terms of parking needs to support Bozeman’s growing downtown. Task 4 elements include: Analyze Bozeman’s population and development trends in the next 3, 5 and 10 years. Identify nexus between land use development use trends, population growth and parking needs. Two Bi-weekly updates & one technical memorandum. Task 5: Identify Parking Efficiencies Based on the results of Tasks 1 – 4, the Consultant Team will identify where there are parking efficiencies in both the on and off-street parking system: Task 5 elements include: Identify locations and methods within the study area where parking stalls could be “added back” to the on and off-street system. Recognize strategies to minimize conflicts between employees and customers/visitors within the parking supply. Consideration of alternative modes off access to the downtown (e.g., transit, bike/walk and rideshare). One bi-weekly update & one technical memorandum. Task 6: Future Parking Opportunities Once efficiencies are identified, RWC staff will identify recommendation options and locations to increase parking inventory based upon forecasted trends to ‘right size’ parking facilities. One or a combination of parking facilities may be identified dependent upon policy, code, use, and/or opportunities. A map locating the potential parking opportunities will accompany Task 6 Tech Memo. City of Bozeman, MT – Downtown Comprehensive Parking Plan Page | 11 Task 6 elements include: GIS map location of future parking opportunites by type (e.g. surface lot, parking structure, on- street, private lots, etc.). Methodology for evaluation and recommendations of parking opportunities. One bi-weekly updates & one technical memorandum. Task 7: Parking Cost/Future Projections The Consultant Team will identify future costs associated with sustaining a future parking facility(s). RWC has extension knowledge creating custom proformas based upon the client’s needs to ensure reasonable expectations, P&L forecasting, and maximum use based upon projected user groups. Further, RWC will identify regulatory, as well as ‘innovative’ funding mechanisms to support projected parking costs associated with a parking facility(s). Task 7 elements include: Develop a detailed parking facility proforma utilizing locally based construction cost metrics; categories of costs to include design, construction, operations, and short & long-term maintenance. Forecast Profit & Loss for parking revenues and expenditures over the course of 10-years for identified parking facility(s). Identify funding mechanisms to ensure parking facilities remain sustainable and/or able to expand in the future. One Bi-weekly update & one technical memorandum. Task 8: Comprehensive Parking Report With the conclusion of the past parking studies, policy and code analysis, as well as an understanding of parking effiences, and potential financially feasible parking facility(s) in the future, RWC will summarize the findings into a draft Comprehensive Parking Plans study report for the City of Bozeman to review. Once comments/edits are incorporated, a final report will be presented along with a final presentation by RWC Staff. Task 8 work elements include: Combine Tech Memos into a comprehensive draft report. Final refinements to parking plan based on input derived from City Staff and Stakeholders.
