City postpones Wright Street parking-deck vendor contracts for more review
Summary
Council postponed two items to the July 8 meeting: hardware/software contract for automated access and a management services agreement for the Wright Street parking deck, citing need for further review and a planned work session on deck operations.
The Auburn City Council voted to postpone action on two proposed contracts tied to operations of the Wright Street parking deck, sending both items to the July 8 meeting for additional review.
Councilmembers moved to postpone a $147,267.60 service agreement with FlashPark, Inc. for parking access and revenue control hardware and software, and a separate management-services agreement with Last Parking Georgia LLC (an $8,000-per-month services fee plus a non-guaranteed annual incentive) that would govern day-to-day deck management. City staff identified the contracts on the consent agenda; councilmembers requested more time to review alternatives and operational details.
Acting City Manager Will Cummings said the deck is “starting to mature” and that staff would request a work session so councilmembers could better understand operations, revenue and management options for the roughly 350-space facility. Councilmembers said they wanted further context on how the deck functions, which agencies or contractors would be involved, and details about service-level expectations before committing to multi-month contracts.
Both items were postponed by unanimous procedural votes and will return to the council on July 8. Staff said they will coordinate a work session with councilmembers prior to that meeting to walk through operational data and options.
