(Citywide)
Motion carries. Kane A last concern item that was pulled tonight was 60. Item 16 is a report from Public Works recommendation to authorize city manager to execute an amendment to contract with Central Park System for providing parking operations and management services to increase the contract amount by $450,000. City Councilman Gonzales. Yes, thank you. I remember pulling this item about a month ago and had questions. And I want to thank Craig Beck for depicting all of the the information that will are all of the details as to what this contract will cover. However, I did have one question relative to the security, because I know City Place has been in an issue historically with security. So can you tell me a little bit about what that will cover and entail? Exactly. Craig. Certainly Councilmember Gonzales, members of the council, the item that you have before you is really focused on the operating side of our parking lots, not so much the CHP elements, which we we do have a number of those coming forward. But we felt it was prudent to make a reinvestment in many of our facilities, especially the city place garage in the downtown. And we've added a number of security personnel and security hours over the course of 24 seven operation in City Place alone, we've added over 160 hours of security time. Plus under this agreement with central parking who are now ESP plus they put in somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 additional security cameras in that garage, which are now monitored by the security officers. So we've really tried to step up that experience. There's also increased maintenance, power washing. We've increased the frequency of power washing in those garages where we have a number of other items that we're going to be addressing moving forward. But those are some of the ones under this particular request. Great. Thank you, Craig. I just wanted to make sure we clarify that and I appreciate your work on this. Thank you. Thank you. There's a motion on the second. See no public comment. Please cast your votes. Motion case consent count and the consent calendar and all the pulled out ins have been approved. We're going to go ahead and do a couple of items out of order.
