Stan has the prime piece of property right next to the airport
entry. He runs a good parking operation and takes a lot of parking business away from the airport. He has built a good legacy
and comfortable life by making the right decisions along the way.
Now the airport wants to use eminent domain to take away his
property and most likely his business for what seems to me to be
a paltry amount. He is willing to sell, but at a price that makes
business sense.
I have been suspect of eminent domain's use in many such situations. The concept of "public good" can be stretched to fit most
any activity a politician or airport manager wants it to.
Pittsburgh Lot Workers Strike;
City Council Supports Them
Some 230 parking lot workers went on strike in Pittsburgh and turned a bargaining table dispute into a political
battle. Lot operators said they would keep facilities open by
using management, clerical and temporary employees.
Teamsters Local 926, which represents the workers, won
a resolution from Pittsburgh City Council accusing operators of "union busting" and urging prompt compromise.
Workers walked off lots owned or managed by the Pittsburgh Parking Authority, Alco Parking, Main Lot, Grant
Oliver Parking and E&S Transportation. The lots have some
40,000 spaces, including the large majority of Downtown,
North Shore and Pittsburgh International Airport parking.
Alco had hired replacements for $12 a hour. "There may
have been hiccups while we were training and putting people in," said Alco President Merrill Stabile. But picketing was
not disruptive, parkers were not turned away and lot volumes were normal, Stabile said.
Ten lot workers and several labor leaders came before
the council, complaining that lot operators would not
budge in negotiations. Stabile said he'd return to the table at
any time but wouldn’t "let a politician tell me I don't pay
my workers enough when they've imposed a 50% parking
tax." The city has the nation's highest parking tax.
Parking Blog comments:
The parking attendants union has gone out on strike in
Pittsburgh. They want more money, and more flexibility in their
work hours, and a guaranteed job. Yep -- if an operator loses a
location to another operator, they want their jobs guaranteed
across the two companies.
The operators, including the Pittsburgh Parking Authority and
Alco, the largest private operator, seem to think they should be
able to ask a cashier to answer phones in the office or maybe,
dare I say it, sweep a floor. They think they should be able to
charge the folks 10% of the cost of their health insurance.
Outrageous.

This is going to get political fast, since the head of the PPA is the
mayor’s brother and the owner of Alco is looking for approval on
some gaming operations. However, it will be fun to watch. In the
meantime, the lots are full, and the operators are running with
management crews and training temps.
From what I know about running garages, that shouldn't take
too long. I wonder if the union realized that running a cashier
terminal isn't the same as running, say, the control board at a
nuclear power plant.
Town Removes Meters, Institutes Parking Zones
The new downtown parking plan in Newark, OH,
continues to change based on concerns from business
owners, but enforcement is just around the corner.
All the meters will be removed, and parking zones of
two, three and 11 hours will be in place. The time limits
are for the day, even if a motorist leaves and returns to
another space in the same zone. The two- and three-hour
zones will be enforced from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday.
The latest revision will likely be to the cost of parking
passes for downtown residents. The proposed cost was
$90 per quarter, or $360 per year.
Mayor Bruce Bain said the city was listening to all
concerns and would probably adjust the price of the pass.
A final plan will be in place and enforcement will begin
within a couple of weeks, the mayor said.
The parking time limits cover the entire working day,
so an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon
add up to the two-hour limit, if in the same zone.
Alex Athan, day manager at The Natoma, said the
cumulative nature of the time limit will be confusing and
a burden on patrons. "What I dislike most is if a customer
is here at 11 a.m. for an hour, and has errands to run and
comes back to meet friends for a cocktail or coffee, they're
still on the clock for that hour," Athan said. "You still have
only an hour left to work with."
The cumulative time limit was designed to eliminate
the practice of downtown employees moving their cars a
few spaces away every two hours to avoid tickets.
Parking Blog comments:
We are obviously missing something here. If I understand what
is written above -- if I come in and park for 15 minutes in a
two-hour zone, then leave and come back in an hour and stay
for 45 minutes, then leave and come back in an hour and stay
for 65 minutes, I have overstayed and will be fined.
Now just how are they going to enforce that? There must be
some new technology we haven't heard about. And as you are
aware, unenforced controls are worse than none at all.
A reader chimes in:
John: I can envision how you could enforce this using some of
the new MLRP products now available, but it would take a
great deal of time, effort and expense. A well-designed and
enforced meter system would be a whole lot easier and surely
more cost-efficient. Unfortunately, cost efficiency seems to frequently get relegated to the back of the bus when a City
Council gets involved.
Councilman Files Petition To Prevent Paid Parking
After Councilman Doug Thomas' submission of signatures to the City Clerk's office in order to get his "no
paid parking" proposal on the ballot, city officials in
Dearborn, MI, said that though the names are in, that
fact alone does not allow the proposal to come before
the voters in November.
Thomas, along with the proposal's co-sponsor Tony
Fera, gathered nearly 4,000 signatures from people who
say they are against paying to park in city-owned lots.
Thomas and Fera said they are against paid parking
for many reasons, including the fact they believe that
businesses in the city’s west end will suffer a significant
loss of customers once the system starts. Originally
slated to begin in January 2005, the system currently
has no projected launch date, city officials said.
Mayor Michael Guido said the system is necessary
because, though the businesses do pay a tax for maintenance of the city-owned lots, the city can no longer
afford to pay the difference. Having users pay to park
solves the problem, the mayor said — a fact that
Thomas disputes.

Parking Blog comments:
Funny, isn't Dearborn the home of Ford Motor Co.? It would seem
that the birthplace of an industry should be able to understand
that it costs money to park cars as well as to run them.
Let's see -- the businesses will suffer if paid parking is instituted.
So you are telling me that the only reason people come to these
businesses is because of free parking? They are willing to pay for
parking to see a Tigers game, or to visit a fancy restaurant, or
when they stay overnight at the Ren Center downtown, but they
won't pay a small amount when they come to eat or shop in
"West Dearborn?” Sorry, sports fans, it doesn't fly.
If you want people to come to your area and shop, give them a
reason to do so. Make it fun to shop there. Clean up the streets,
put in new lighting and storefronts, repave and fix the sidewalks.
Increase security. Put in a 12- plex cinema.
Cost too much? Not if you take the money you get from parking
and roll it back into the neighborhood from which it came.
Airport Traffic Creating a Shortage of Parking
Travelers using Philadelphia International Airport are
running into an unexpected problem these days: There
often is nowhere to park. This is occurring particularly with
the long-term economy lot, which routinely fills up quickly each day.
Many airline passengers then are left with a difficult
choice: risk missing their flights as they scramble to find
off-site parking, or put their cars in airport parking garages,
which charge $17 a day, compared with $9 a day in the
economy lot. The short-term ground-level lots across from
the airport's baggage-claim areas charge $38 a day.
Officials say parking spots are hard to come by because
low-fare carrier Southwest Airlines, which began operating
out of Terminal E in May 2004, is drawing far more passengers than expected.
The influx of passengers has flooded the airport's
17,172 parking spaces, including the 5,672-space economy
lot, which often is the first to fill up, according to the
Philadelphia Parking Authority, which manages the lots
and garages.
On a recent day, for instance, the "Lot Full" sign was up
at 11:30 a.m. at the economy lot, and Parking Authority
workers were referring motorists to the airport's garages.
The same scenario occurred the next day. The situation has
been exacerbated as Southwest's low fares have caused other carriers to lower their fares, attracting even more passengers, officials say.
Parking Blog comments:
Read this carefully – there are plenty of parking spaces; it’s just
that people don’t want to pay for them. Yep, those pesky low
fares at Southwest are simply ruining the parking at Philadelphia
International.

A new landmark national survey from Black’s Guide, the
nation’s most comprehensive and industry-leading commercial real estate (CRE) source, reveals that 89% of CRE professionals feel confident that business will be as good as or better in the next six months as in the prior six months. This
confidence follows a half-decade slump in the CRE industry.
Rather than focusing on where tenants will come from,
commercial real estate professionals are focusing on the
increased demands of new tenants such as WiFi and food
services and the challenges of accelerating development such
as traffic issues and delays in construction permits, the survey shows.
Nearly 1,000 commercial real estate professionals
nationwide participated in the survey.
The upward trend of market activity indicated in the
survey has been reflected in the robust traffic that the Black’s
Guide Web site (www.Black’sGuide.com) has also experienced, where users are able to easily search a database of
more than 80,000 properties.
“The results of our first CRE Trends Survey demonstrate
that the commercial real estate industry is experiencing signs
of consistent growth after a sluggish five years,” said Ed
Barnes, Vice President and General Manager of Black’s Guide.
“CRE professionals are back into problem-solving mode …
looking for the kind of creative solutions and high-quality
information that gets deals done.”

Parking Firm to
Fight Airport Fee
The owner of the only private
parking company serving the Richmond, VA, airport plans to fight a new
fee he calls an attempt to drive him out
of business.
"Their own documentation says
they want to get rid of us," said John
Bona, President of Florida-based Park'N
Go. "They're saying to get rid of them,
let's tax them more and they'll go away."
Airport officials denied the allegation. Chief Financial Officer Douglas
Blum said the fee, approved by the airport commission Aug. 30, is needed to
keep pace with rising operating costs.
The resolution was passed unanimously by the Capital Region Airport Commission, which represents Richmond
and the counties of Chesterfield,
Hanover and Henrico. It calls for
Park'N Go to pay the airport 8% of its
gross revenue each year, in addition to
another user fee.
Bona vowed to "fight this to the
bitter end."
