The City of Portland ordains:

Section 1.  The Council finds:

1. The Bureau of Development Services (BDS), Bureau of Environmental Services (BES), Bureau of Technology Services (BTS), Fire & Rescue (FIRE), Bureau of Parks and Recreating (PARKS), Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) and the Portland Water Bureau (PWB), collectively, COP, has a need for parking spaces and access cards at the 4^th Avenue Garage. COP staff’s City assigned vehicles have a need to park in the garage. BES and PBOT also utilize personal vehicles in order to conduct field inspections.
    
2. BDS inspection staff has parked in PSU's 4^th Avenue Garage parking facility, which is adjacent to the Development Services Building, since BDS moved into the Development Services Building in 1999.  BES, BTS, FIRE, PARKS, PBOT, and PWB also found that they have a need to park City owned vehicles and personal vehicles (used for inspections) to conduct daily business activities, when necessary. The parking structure is the most convenient and efficient in terms of access and proximity to the Development Services Building.
    
3. The Bureau of Development Services currently has an interagency agreement with BES, BTS, FIRE, PARKS, PBOT and PWB to handle and process all the parking invoices and customer service issues with Portland State University Transportation and Parking Services.
    
4. The costs of these parking permits, for the period July 2022 through June 2023, fall within two tiers: 1. Non-Reserved parking permits are charged at a monthly rate of $215 per space, and 2. Parking spaces reserved all hours are charged a monthly rate of $280/space.
   
   The monthly cost for non-reserved permits during Fiscal Year (FY)2022-23 will increase by $10 over the FY2021-22 rate to $215 per permit. Permits with spaces reserved all hours, for electric charging stations, will decrease by $11 per month from the FY2021-22 rate to $280 per permit. This IGA provides for a maximum of 126 non-reserved parking permits and 44 reserved permits.
    
5. Funds for this IGA have been made available in the FY2022-23 budget.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Council directs:

1. Notwithstanding the limitation on director authority contained in PCC 5.33.060.D, the Director of the Bureau of Development Services (BDS) is hereby authorized to execute intergovernmental agreements (IGA) in an amount not to exceed $650,000 annually with the State of Oregon, acting by and through the State Board of Higher Education, on behalf of Portland State University (PSU), in a form similar to the agreement attached as Exhibit A.
