INVOCATION: Pastor Pace Hartfield with One Place provided the invocation. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Councilmember McEvers led the Pledge of Allegiance. PUBLIC COMMENTS: Jerald Frank, Coeur d’Alene, spoke in support of the parking proposal on East Lakeshore Drive as he has had problems gaining access to his yard across the street. He noted that several years ago the City painted some cross hatches in front of the gates and it did not solve the problem of people parking in front of the gates. The property owners have had to put cones, bikes, or their own vehicles in front of the gates to protect the access. He encouraged the Council to approve the request. Dick Barkley, Coeur d’Alene, noted that he lives on East Lakeshore Drive and spoke in support of the restricted parking at the gates in front of their properties. Keith Boe, Post Falls, noted that he rents two office spaces within the city and would like to bring back free parking.

  • Diamond Parking Summer 2013
    DIAMON DialogD SUMMER 2013 Growing Together. A Tale of Two Cities In this issue of Diamond Dialog, we take a closer look at two “gateway” cities that successfully combine city and airport parking along with storage. ANCHORAGE, ALASKA is the entrance to thousands of miles of unexplored wilderness and unparalleled travel adventures. It is also home to Diamond Parking’s city and airport parking operations. Diamond started parking cars in Anchorage in 1974, the same year that construction began on the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System. Investment in oil and gas exploration has long fueled the 49th state. The same is true today, says Anchorage City Matt Samuel, Anchorage Manager Matt Samuel. “Anchorage is growing steadily with new people moving into the City Manager area. As a result, we continue to maintain a position of relative economic strength.” Matt notes that the 2011 census pegs the city’s population at approximately 295,600 not counting the occasional moose or elk that wanders into town. By 2014, according to the Anchorage Economic Development Corp., the population is expected to top 309,000. Matt says that Diamond’s parking operations are focused mostly in downtown. “It’s a compact center that’s easy to get around. Parking demand comes from a strong business sector, plus the presence of many Federal Agencies. This is supplemented by the leisure side with many popular restaurants and bars, a Continued on inside page SPOKANE, WASHINGTON is the gateway to the “Inland Empire.” It is the second largest city in the state with an estimated population of nearly 210,000.

  • West Seattle Junction Off-Street Parking Occupancy
    DRAFT TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM Project: West Seattle Junction Neighborhood Parking Subject: Off-Street Parking Occupancy Study Date: December 7, 2017 Authors: Robert H. Frankel Marni C. Heffron, P.E., P.T.O.E. This technical memorandum summarizes the results of off-street parking surveys performed in the West Seattle Junction neighborhood in September 2017. The surveys document the parking occupancy at complimentary and paid parking facilities during a typical weekday and a typical Saturday. The weekday surveys were performed on the same day as an on-street parking study (results reported separately). This memorandum presents the methodology for the parking data collection, summarizes the number of vehicles parked in off-street facilities (occupancy), and compares results from the 2017 surveys to a similar parking study performed in 2009. 1. Parking Survey 1.1. Study Area and Off-Street Parking Supply The study area boundaries are SW Genesee St to the north, SW Dawson St to south, 45th Ave SW to the west, and 40th Ave SW to the east. There are a total of 14 public parking facilities in this area, including four complimentary “The Junction” parking lots, nine paid parking facilities managed by Diamond Parking, and one lot that provides complimentary parking for patrons of the Jefferson Square shopping center. The four Junction parking lots are free for shoppers in the Junction area and have a maximum time limit of three hours. Six of the paid parking facilities offer continuous public parking, while the remaining three lots are only available to the public outside of regular banking business hours (see the Appendix for details).

  • A Helmet Law Fact
    MINUTES FOR THE MEETING JUDICIARY COMMITTEE MONTANA STATE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES February 6, 1985 The meeting of the Judiciary Committee was called to order by Chairman Tom Hannah on Wednesday, February 6, 1985 at 8:00 a.m. in Room 312-3 of the State Capitol Building. ROLL CALL: All members were present. CONSIDERATION OF HOUSE BILL NO. 357: Hearing commenced on HB 357. Rep. Jerry Nisbet, chief sponsor of the bill, testified in support of it. Rep. Nisbet stated that this bill would reinstate a law that we repealed in Montana in 1977. Rep. Nisbet referred to some statistics from the "Effective Motorcycle Helmet Use Law Repealed," prepared by the National Highway Traffic Safety Admini­ stration. He also submitted copies of the Motorcycle Accident Facts for the committee's information. He feels that from the statistics, there is no doubt that helmet laws are effective in preventing motorcycle fatali­ ties. A copy of the Motorcycle Accident Facts has been marked as Exhibit A and is attached hereto. Senator Mike Halligan, from Missoula, testified in support of HB 357. He feels the helmet law should be re-enacted not only for the economic justification but because of the personll tragedies that occur. Dr. David Jacobson, an orthopedic surgeon from Missoula, Montana, feels that motorcycles are inherently dangerous. He showed a series of slides that reveal facts from the national series. Most of the information in the slides was provided by the Montana Highway Department and the Western Montana Medical Society. He pointed out that the number of motorcycle fatalities is increasing.

  • Diamond Parking Winter 2016
    DIAMON DialogD WINTER 2016 Growing Together. Relationships — The Cornerstone of Success How do you build genuine business relationships with clients, colleagues and customers — the kind that will lead to long- term growth as well as personal friendships? Diamond Parking’s President Jon Diamond has thought a lot about that question which he and his top managers explored at Diamond’s recent annual seminar titled, Driving Relationships. What follows is more from our interview with Jon about building authentic business relationships that can pay long-term dividends. Why did you choose Driving Relationships as the theme of Diamond’s annual seminar? “Building relationships with our clients and customers is the cornerstone of our business philosophy. It is fundamental to our success. We know that relationships don’t just happen. They are cultivated and developed over time. Until you’re communicating Jon & Joel Diamond directly – and I mean face to face - with key decision makers, you can’t tap into the full power of developing an authentic relationship.” How do you ensure you’re building deep, trusting relationships? “We constantly measure the quality and impact of our relationships with our We hope you enjoy reading clients, customers, and co-workers. We believe that every interaction at every our latest newsletter level is a “relationships” transaction. Today’s customers are not passive and they want to be listened to.
