SUMMARY OF REQUEST: To authorize staff to enter into an agreement with

from the approximately 13% charged by the current provider. The increased fee will be
offset by increased revenue.

Memo
 To:       City Commission
 From:     Elizabeth Lewis
 Cc:       Bryon Mazade; Tim Paul
 Date:     6/03/08
 Re:       Parking Citations Processing and Revenue Collections



The City of Muskegon has had an agreement with Data Tickets, Inc out of Newport Beach, California
for the last five years to process parking tickets and parking ticket_ revenues. The City has experienced
poor customer service and has received many service related complaints from customers. Our current
contract expires in late August. A group of system users have had presentations by several other
vendors that have Michigan clients. The City has received a quote from Complus Data Innovations, Inc
located in Tarrytown, New York after an impressive presentation.

I am requesting authorization to enter into an agreement with Complus to provide the City's parking
citations processing and revenue collections. Currently the City's fees for parking citation processing
are approximately 13% of revenue collected. Complus has proposed a 20% fee of all paid parking
tickets, although this is higher than our current fees it should be offset with higher parking ticket and
impound fee revenues. Complus will provide the following:

       •   Two (2) one-piece handheld ticket writers with built in printers along with all maintenance,
           repair and replacement of the equipment. Handheld units will be replaced approximately every
           three years with improved equipment. Currently the City owns two handheld units that were
           purchased in 2003 and are out of date and in need of replacement.

       •   Increased collection of park tickets. The City's current collection rate is 74%. Complus' goal
           would be to drive the collection rate into the 90% range which is their national average.

       •   Payments processed to the parking ticket database are updated in real time. This will provide
           the most up to date information in impound cases.

       •   More accurate information can be provided by Complus because of their direct relationship
           with the Michigan Secretary of State and other state Secretary of State offices. It appears our
           current provider uses a third party to obtain information from the Secretary of State so
           information is not always current.

       •   The new handhelds have the capability of holding the City's entire Scofflaw List (impound list)
           the handhelds being used now only are capable of storing the current list plus two (2) previous




• Page 1
          years. This additional information available to our parking enforcement officer will increase our
          Impound fee revenue.

    •     Timely customer service and support. Our current provider's location in California caused
          delays because of differing time zones. Complus is located in the eastern time zone.

    •     Complus' on-line parking ticket software will provide the City with the capability to generate
          reports that have not been available with our current provider.

    Complus will increase the City's efficiency and accuracy thereby saving time and maximizing
    revenues.

RE:           Repeal Vehicle for Hire Ordinance




SUMMARY OF REQUEST: At a Worksession meeting held on June 11, 2007, the
Commission considered a request to repeal the Vehicle for Hire Ordinance. At that
time, the Commission determined to license taxicabs for one more year while
Muskegon County established a county-wide licensing requirement.               The
Commission indicated they would visit the issue in one year. At the March 11, 2008,
City Commission Meeting it was decided to extend the current licensing for cabs to
June 11, 2008.
