COURTHOUSE VALET PARKING REPORT
On November 30, 1993, a plan was presented by the Department of Facilities and
Management and approved by the Planning and Building Committee to expand the
South Courthouse Parking Lot to relieve existing and anticipated parking congestion in
the immediate vicinity of the Courthouse. One part of the plan included providing valet
parking services at the north first floor public entrance. Cars would be parked in and
retrieved from the under-utilized parking lot north of the North Office Building. Users
would be charged a nominal fee of $2.00 a day, and properly identified vehicles for the
handicapped would be parked free of charge. Oakland County will not receive any
commissions from the vendor. Costs to the County in providing temporary power to a
contractor-provided valet booth is less than $1,000 and can be absorbed in the 1994
F.M.O. budget. We estimate valet parking services should reduce parking demand in
the immediate area of the Courthouse by an average of 50-100 vehicles.
Specifications were developed and the Purchasing Division received five (5) proposals,
a summary is attached. After evaluating the proposals we recommend awarding a
contract to Four Star Parking Systems, Inc. This company submitted the lowest proposal
at reasonable rates and will provide the following services and features:
• Free valet parking for the handicapped.
• $2.00 a day valet parking for the public and employees with unlimited daily use.
• $20.00 for a coupon book of 20 valet parking coupons for the public or
employees. This also includes unlimited daily use.
• Beeper and telephone car retrieval system for prompt service.
• All valet personnel are to be properly insured, trained and uniformed.
We expect to have the valet parking services in effect in June after completion of the site
work related to the West Wing Extension project. We will keep the Committee advised
of the schedule and the effectiveness of the program.
Attached for additional information is a summary of the five (5) proposals to provide valet
parking services and a map showing the valet drop-off and parking areas. Also attached
is a suggested resolution for the Committee's review.
