TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute an agreement, any subsequent amendments thereto, and any related necessary documents to provide parking processing services to Long Beach City College District, for a period of two years, with an option to extend the agreement for three additional one-year terms. (Districts 5,6)
DISCUSSION
Since August 1, 2003, the Long Beach Police Department (LBPD) has provided law enforcement and security services for the Long Beach City College District (LBCCD) campuses under Agreement for Law Enforcement Services #31078. This agreement is set to expire on September 30, 2017.
This contracting-in agreement enables LBPD officers and LBCCD personnel to issue citations for parking violations on its facilities. In addition, since January 21, 2004, the City has been processing parking citations issued on the various LBCCD campuses in the same manner and to the same extent that the City processes parking citations issued elsewhere in the City. A new agreement has been negotiated for the proposed term for parking citation processing services.
The major terms and conditions of the new agreement include payment for the City’s direct costs, as consideration for processing LBCCD parking citations. The City will receive a 10 percent share of the net revenue derived from parking citations issued at the LBCCD. “Net revenue” is defined as that portion of the revenue derived from parking citations that remains after deducting the total cost to the City, including the State of California surcharge remunerated to the Municipal Court for each parking citation paid, delinquent citation collection fees, as well as fees paid to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
This matter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Amy R. Webber on October 4, 2016 and by Assistant Finance Director Lea Eriksen on October 11, 2016.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action on this item is requested on November 1, 2016, to expedite the implementation of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
The annual additional revenue of approximately $53,000 will be deposited into the General Fund (GF 100) in the Financial Management Department (FM). The revenue analysis for the projection is based on the average number of citations written at LBCCD during the prior fiscal period. There is no local job impact associated with this recommendation.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
