McGuire’s Case Book
The Case of the Mysterious
Old Ticket Switcheroo
By DC McGuire
DC McGuire is the newest character in PT’s cast of parking sleuths. A former FBI auditor, he also has worked in parking operations in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.
DC has been kind enough to chronicle some of his cases for Parking Today. -- Editor
was hired by a company that
owns a number of “honor” lots in
the city. Their numbers were
down on two of the lots, but the collectors swore up and down that they
were reporting all the income. In addition, they had changed the collection
staff and the numbers remained about
the same. But they knew that something was wrong, Laddie boy, and that

I could figure it out.
I decide to stake out the lots and
see just what is happening. I’m surprised when about 9 in the morning, a
fellow in a white jumpsuit and clipboard arrives and stands in front of
the honor box. I just have to find out
what was happening, so I drive into
the lot as if I were going to park.
He very nicely tells me the honor

box is “out of order” and he is supposed to take the money and issue a
ticket to the vehicles. I pay the minimum amount, and he writes down
my license number and puts a ticket
under my windshield.
I go around the corner and have a
cup of coffee. When I return, I take the
ticket off the windshield and drive out
of the lot. The ticket is stamped with a

time from yesterday and is for a lot
about six blocks away. I go over to that
lot and talk to the lot manager.
Seems that lot is a pay-on-entry
location and a ticket is hand-issued
to each car. He identifies the ticket
as from his lot but can’t explain how
the ticket got on my car six blocks
away.
I decide to stake out his lot and
see what happens. Sure enough, that
afternoon the fellow from the first lot
-- now not dressed in a white jumpsuit
-- comes by and when the lot attendant isn’t looking, takes about a dozen
tickets off the cars. He then goes to the
lot across the street and does the same
thing.
I tell ya, Laddie, this entrepreneur
has a great thing going: He has no
investment, no expenses (except
perhaps the cost of laundering the
jumpsuit) and no supply costs.
So if you owned the honor lot,
how would you prevent this type
of fraud?
I want you to know that if
you're ever going to make money
in this crazy parking business,
you've got to be eternally vigilant.
You must check your parking lots
often so that some Ol’ Sly Fox can't
pick you clean.
It isn't sufficient to check your
lots only once a week. Even only
once in the morning and once in
the afternoon isn't enough. I've
found that you need to check
them at least twice in the morning
and twice in the afternoon. And

population that surrounded our office. He said he had
many friends in the community and was saddened by
the plague that engulfed it. He wished more could be
done, but knew that, as with most problems unique to a
community, the solution would eventually come as
much from within as from without. He then abruptly
changed the subject. It was one of the few times I saw a
tear in eye of my father.
But the cops in our office weren’t there for a travelogue. Bill Murray -- that’s “Lt. Murray” to you -- was
leading the investigation. He tried to be a gruff cop, but
it was difficult for him to carry it off since he also came
to my fifth birthday party. And from what I understand
he, my dad and “uncle” Jim went out on the deck while
we kids were playing in the house and “tested” a bottle
of 18-year-old Macallam. The results had been kept from
me for more than three decades.
I told Bill that Grace Lundquist had come in on a
referral and told us she was afraid she had been followed
after seeing some sort of rendezvous on the roof of the
parking garage outside her Olympic Boulevard office
building. She was about to tell us more when she was
shot. “I guess she was right about the following part,”
said Dad.
Bill told us that a quick check of the partial Dad got
on the towncar’s license plates led to a ’95 Taurus registered in the Valley. It was a dead end. I only hoped Grace
wasn’t one too.
The hospital called about an hour later. Grace was
out of surgery and resting comfortably. No major organs
were hit, and the pressure I had put on the wound had
helped keep most of her blood where it belonged. We
could talk to her in a day or so.
Now what? Bill Murray and his partner had left with
the admonition that we should let them know if we heard
anything else. This was a sticky case for them as it crossed
jurisdictional grounds -- Olympic Boulevard being in L.A.
proper -- but he was certain the Sheriff’s Department could
work out the issues with the LAPD.
In the meantime, Dad, Jim and I discussed our next
move. I was going to Grace’s office building on Olympic,
Jim would work the towncar angle, and Dad would call in a
few chips he had with the Sheriff’s Department crime lab to
see if they could get anything off the bullet.
That all changed with the ringing of the phone; it was
Bill Murray at the hospital. Someone had gotten through
the ER security and shot up the recovery room where Grace
was. There were people down. The shooter got away in a
black towncar. We jumped in my jeep and headed for
Cedars.

Homeland Security Inspectors' Bid for
Paid Parking at Dulles Wins Support
The start of a good workday usually requires hot java
and a parking place. Both cost money. At Dulles International Airport, Customs and Border Protection inspectors,
who pay to park, think their agency should pick up the
cost. They point out that another part of the Department
of Homeland Security, the Transportation Security
Administration, provides parking passes to TSA employees who work at Dulles.
The concern about parking perks was brought to the
attention of Rep. Frank R. Wolf (R-Va.) at a meeting organized by National Treasury Employees Union Local 159.
The inspectors told Wolf that parking costs were one of
their major workplace concerns, and Wolf spearheaded a
letter to bring the matter to the attention of the head of
the border protection agency, Robert C. Bonner .
The meeting with Wolf came after the airport raised
the annual parking fee Oct. 1 for inspectors by $30, to
$325. "Imposing substantial parking fees on law enforcement officers engaged in homeland security activities is
counterproductive," said the letter, signed by Wolf and
Reps. Peter T. King (R-N.Y.) and Thomas M. Davis III (RVa.).
The letter said that the agency has 30 vacant jobs out
of a staff of 200 at the airport and that reimbursing the

inspectors for parking would cost $65,000 a year. "For such a
small cost, CBP will add a huge benefit to attract new officers and improve morale among existing employees."
The letter also called parking fees "a huge dent in the
salaries of these officers," and said the issue is causing
morale problems because inspectors are aware that their TSA
colleagues receive passes that cover most of their parking
expenses at Dulles.
Parking Blog comments:
Here's the deal -- Dulles airport charges Border and Customs
types upwards of $300 a month to park. However, the TSA
picks up parking costs for the Transportation Security officers.
What to do?
Seems pretty easy to me -- If the Border and Customs agency
doesn't have the bucks to pay for the parking, it shouldn't. Its
employees can then decide if the job is worth paying for the
parking or find an alternative. Or they can quit and go work for
the TSA.
I can see it already: The pressure will be on the airport to provide free parking for all public safety officers. OK, I am going to
say something that will fly in the face of what you normally see
in this blog. Are you ready?
I think that the airport should pick up the cost of parking for
the police and fire officers who are there to protect the airport
and our country. Just call it good business. If the cops get a little spiff, they do a better job, and we all are safer. What's
wrong with that?
Notice, I said, "Pick up the cost," not "Provide free parking." The
parking isn't free. It has a cost. However, those who stand
between us and harm deserve a bit of a thanks once in a while.
Why not cover their parking costs? And I would have them
assigned spaces spread all throughout the parking structures.
That way, you would have armed police wandering throughout
your parking facility at all hours, during shift changes, and the
like. Not a bad thing. Remember, the safest place to be is
Dunkin’ Donuts. After all, it’s always full of police.
Philadelphia Says State Takeover of
Parking Unit a Failure; May Sue
Philadelphia officials, accusing the state of mismanaging the city's parking authority since a 2001 takeover, may
sue to get more revenue from unpaid tickets.
“The authority is not meeting its commitments to the
city, and it's causing real problems,'' said Joyce Wilkerson,
an aide to Mayor John Street. “This has forced the city to
redo its five-year budget plan, and has had a negative
impact on how many police officers and firefighters we can
hire.''
Pennsylvania doubled the authority's workforce in the
past four years and paid for the expansion with city money,
draining funds counted on to close a $3.5 million budget
gap, Philadelphia officials say. The mayor is considering a
suit to get financial records as the agency begins a push to
collect $22 million in unpaid tickets.
Philadelphia, with a population of 1.4 million, has cut
1,600 jobs because of the city's budget woes, according to
the Pennsylvania Intergovernmental Cooperation Authori-

ty, the state board that monitors its finances. Philadelphia
had about 29,000 employees as of March 2004, including
6,970 police officers and 2,350 firefighters.
Gov. Edward Rendell, a former mayor of Philadelphia,
last year signed legislation to extend the parking authority's contract with the city for 10 years. The agency said it
would pay the first $25 million in profits from its garages,
parking meters and tow trucks to the city. Anything above
that is slated for the Philadelphia School District.
“We're making progress at improving efficiency
and bringing in more revenue,'' said House Speaker
John Perzel. Before the takeover, the authority “was an
underperforming asset,'' collecting at most $17 million
a year, Perzel said. It turned a $29 million profit in fiscal 2004, giving Philadelphia's school district a check
for $4 million.
Parking Blog comments:
It seems the state took over the city’s parking authority in
2001, basically because of mismanagement. Now the city is
threatening to sue the state for, guess what, mismanaging its
parking operation.
Now let’s see -- when the parking operation was under the
control of the city, it had 500 employees. Anyone want to
guess how many there are now? 1,000. Yep, double the number. The city is accusing the state of patronage. (It doubled the
size of the board, with each house of the state legislature picking board members.) Well, duh -- that's what politics does,
isn't it?
The police write the tickets; the authority collects the money.
They are complaining that the numbers are down because the
police aren't writing enough tickets. Let’s see -- the cops have a
choice: Catch a rapist or write a ticket. They have a parking
enforcement division, but they aren't talking.
I wonder what would happen if the authority had a board of
minimally paid members of the community and the authority
to write tickets. What if this board hired an executive director
with experience? What if the board told the director that his
salary was directly related to collections and profit (get the
money in and reduce expenses).
Nope, wouldn't work -- no politics.
I know of a number of companies here in the U.S. that
would be happy to fund, build, and run a garage for a hospital or college. And, after 30 or 40 years, give it to the
organization it supports.
Time to start thinking outside the box. And time
for the local press to get a bit real and report the facts
instead of the "feelings." What am I saying? We have
yet to get a fact out of New Orleans, and we have a
thousand reporters on-site. Every day that goes by
shows another "fact" is a rumor printed or reported
without checking … sigh. Time for a wee whisky, single-malt, with a splash of water …
Comment on this blog -John: When I was Director of the San Francisco Parking
Authority, I received a number of phone calls from doctors at
San Francisco General Hospital complaining about the lack of
parking serving the hospital. This was creating a problem for
them because SFGH was a major research facility for AIDS, and
patients necessary for their research would not show up on a
regular basis for appointments if they could not find parking.
The parking situation reached its peak when I was invited by
the hospital director to attend a meeting to discuss the parking
problem and solutions. The meeting had to be cancelled; I
couldn't find a parking space after circling hospital parking
areas and surrounding streets for 30 minutes.
The good news is that I was able to help them fund and build
a new parking structure. The hospital functions much better
with available parking.

Parking Shortage MAY Cause Deaths
Typical UK headline (above); the emphasis is mine.
The problem is that there is a parking shortage around a
British hospital and a lot of traffic; therefore, it would
seem that an ambulance could get stuck in traffic and a
person near the hospital could die ... Well, let’s read the
story.
The head of the local ambulance company says he
hasn't had any problems, or certainly fewer than other
ambulances in the nearby communities. So what's the big
deal?
It’s simple: poor planning in the building of a "super
hospital" costing more than half a billion dollars. No
money for parking. I don't really have a problem with that
-- the parking should pay for itself. And people would pay,
if they had a place to park. The Uber Planners in the UK
seem to forget that the private sector exists.

Parking at Purdue
When I was growing up in Fillmore,
CA, I walked to school; it took about,
dare I say it, 20 minutes.
Oh, yes, and that 20-minute walk
away from campus costs the parkers
about $9 a month. I wonder what the
poor, downtrodden, over-walked students would say if the parking organization at Purdue were to raise the cost
to, what, $1 a day and take the extra
money to lay on more frequent shuttles? Can you imagine the hue and cry
then?
A senior at Purdue writes in to the
local paper to complain about parking
(read it here).
Here's the deal: As the university has
grown, close-in parking has been used
up for those pesky things you find
around schools: classrooms. And guess
what? The parking has been moved
farther and farther off-campus.
So the sheltered students complain
that they have to walk "20 minutes"
from their cars to school, and if they
take a shuttle, free by the way, it also
might take as much as "20 minutes."
Can you believe it? 20 minutes to
walk to class.
Now I'm not going to give the 30miles-through-the-snow speech, but I
remember that my on-campus residence hall (read that dorm) at UCLA
was about a 20-minute walk from
classrooms. We had to plan our days
so we didn't have to walk back to the
dorms between classes. Big deal.

Olympic Sells
SunPark Lots
Olympic Management Systems, the parent company of SunPark off-site parking lots, has sold six of its
airport lots to the Macquarie Infrastructure Co. of Australia for $64.9 million. The lots include facilities at
Buffalo Niagara International Airport and in Philadelphia, Columbus, OH, Houston, Oklahoma City and St.
Louis.
As part of the deal, SunPark's operational and
training offices will move from Buffalo to Philadelphia, but the company's headquarters will remain in
downtown Buffalo. Paul Snyder Sr., Olympic Management Systems chairman, said the deal will allow SunPark to move forward with other acquisitions. He also
said talks were underway for SunPark to acquire a new
off-site lot near the Buffalo airport.
Peter Stokes, Macquarie’s Chief Executive Officer,
said the deal works well with his company's strategic
plan. “The acquisition of these sites allows us to leverage our off-airport parking business into several attractive new markets and to add to our already strong
position in two markets in which we have a presence."
The added sites will be re-branded as Avistar Airport
Parking facilities over the next several months.
