Request for Proposals Alternative Uses for Patco's Woodcrest and Lindenwold Station Parking Lots Port Authority Transit Corpor REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS ALTERNATIVE USES FOR PATCO’S WOODCREST AND LINDENWOLD STATION PARKING LOTS PORT AUTHORITY TRANSIT CORPORATION Subsidiary of the DELAWARE RIVER PORT AUTHORITY April , 2005 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS ALTERNATIVE USES FOR WOODCREST AND LINDENWOLD PARKING LOTS I. PROJECT BACKGROUND Delaware River Port Authority (DRPA)/Port Authority Transit Corporation (PATCO) is requesting proposals from qualified vendors to use (license) the PATCO parking lots at its Woodcrest or Lindenwold Stations for the purpose of conducting revenue-generating activities . PATCO is seeking additional sources of revenue by licensing the use of the PATCO parking lots at Woodcrest station or Lindenwold station. PATCO provides service between Southern New Jersey and Center City Philadelphia, with approximate ridership of 33,000 trips each weekday. PATCO provides service to thirteen (13) stations, 9 in New Jersey and 4 in downtown Philadelphia. It also, connects to SEPTA rail and bus services in Philadelphia and to New Jersey Transit's rail and bus services in Camden County, including the new River Line (at Walter Rand Transportation Center), a light rail service with 20 stations between the Camden waterfront and Trenton, New Jersey. PATCO provides service twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Peak hour service during the weekday is every 3 - 4 minutes, off-peak service is every 12 minutes and owl service every 40 minutes. Weekend service on Saturday is every 12 minutes and Sunday every 20 minutes, owl service for both days is every 40 minutes. DRPA/PATCO has seven parking lots (with a total of 12,500 parking spaces) located in Camden County, New Jersey. During the weekends, parking at these lots will be free except for meter parking. While PATCO operates service (Saturday every 12 minutes; Sundays every 20 minutes) during this time, ridership is far below weekday ridership levels. There are many unused parking spaces on the weekend. PATCO views unused areas as an opportunity to explore other non- transit related activities and usage of a portion of its parking lots for revenue generating activities. PATCO also seeks to increase ridership by encouraging non- transit related activities at its parking facilities. Woodcrest Station Woodcrest Station has 2,673 parking spaces divided into 14 relatively uniform sized lot areas - Lots 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3, 4, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A, and 8B. Lots numbered 3, 4, 5, and 6 are paid lots totaling 1,230 spaces. In addition to gated spaces, section 3 has 14 metered slots. There are about 1,393 free spaces and 37 spaces for persons with disabilities, which are located in lots 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 7A, 7B, 8A, 8B. Average ridership experienced at Woodcrest Station is as follows: 2,539 riders each weekday, 413 riders each Saturday, and 330 riders each Sunday. Woodcrest Station is located south of Interstate Route 295 and the New Jersey Turnpike in Cherry Hill Township on Woodcrest Road and Melrose Avenue. The station area is predominantly within Cherry Hill Township with a small portion of land in Lawnside Borough. The area consists mainly of non-residential uses with office and industrial properties along Woodcrest Road and Melrose Avenue. There s also a single-family residential neighborhood to the south of the area. Lands west of the railroad right-of-way and south of Melrose Avenue are dedicated for PATCO Parking. North of Melrose Avenue and west of the railroad right-of-way is an office complex and small businesses. Along the south side of Woodcrest Road is O’Neill Properties [It is actually an affiliate of O’Neill] which is adjacent to PATCO Station property and recently renovated. Towers Perrin is the major building tenant. A significant portion of the site is wetlands due to the proximity of Tindale Run and Cuffy’s Run tributaries of the Cooper River. Development is restricted in the non-wetland portions of this parcel by the 12-foot wide access easement for the Camden County Municipal Utilities Authority (CCMUA). However, the site has large paved parking and loading areas. At 110 Woodcrest Road, there is a light industrial facility, owned by the Vineland Construction Company. This property contains undeveloped land, abutting the railroad right-of- way that has possible development potential. The land within Lawnside Borough is undeveloped wetlands and is within a conservation and recreation district. Attached is a map of the parking lot showing the areas PATCO will license to the successful proposer. Lindenwold Station Lindenwold Station has a total of 3,337 parking spaces. Lot 2 closet to the platform is paid parking (581 spaces) plus 45 Handicapped spaces. Lots 1, 3, 4, and 5 are free. On weekends, all parking will be free except the metered parking. Average ridership experienced at Lindenwold is as follows: 4,558 riders each weekday, 1,494 riders on Saturdays and 982 riders on Sundays. The Lindenwold Station, jointly served by NJ Transit Bus and Rail (Atlantic City Line) and PATCO are located on Berlin Avenue and White Horse Road in Lindenwold, New Jersey. The station is within close proximity to the White Horse Pike (US Route 30). Surrounding Boroughs are Lindenwold, Somerdale, Stratford and Voorhees Township. Parking for PATCO customers is provided in the area extending from the railroad right-of-way to Berlin Avenue in Lindenwold. The PATCO parking area extends beyond the quarter-mile radius around the station center. Lindenwold and Voorhees border each other along Kirkwood Lake. The majority of the DRPA’s undeveloped land is classified as wetlands. In Somerdale, there is a single-family residential neighborhood along White Horse Road that abuts a business center at the corner of White Horse Road and Berlin Avenue. The Stratford area land extends from Berlin Avenue to the White Horse Pike and contains commercial uses. The area of land south of the White Horse Pike has auto sales businesses. The defunct Bradlees shopping center is located off the White Horse Pike. In Voorhees, a residential neighborhood lies along Kirkwood Lake. There are business and commercial uses along White Horse Road. Attached is a map of the parking lot showing the areas PATCO will license to the successful proposer. II. SCOPE OF SERVICES PATCO is seeking proposals for additional sources of revenue through licenses for the use of parking lots at Woodcrest or Lindenwold Stations. The term of the licenses will be for a period of one (1) year in the initial term with three (3) one-year renewal options at DRPA/PATCO discretion and provided that licensee complies with the terms and conditions of the license. Use of the parking lots is limited to Sundays only and cannot interfere with regular passenger flow at the station and parking lots. Parking spaces must be made available to customers who ride PATCO on Sundays. Revenues earned from the newly created venue will be commercially reasonable and shared with DRPA/PATCO on a basis to be set forth in the proposal. PATCO is not responsible to pay any costs in connection with licensee’s activities. The chosen vendor(s) will be responsible for ensuring that the venue complies with PATCO’s standards and regulations and licensee’s activities must not interfere with the safe operation of PATCO service. The vendor is also responsible for the following, at its sole cost and expense: 1. Perform any and all work or installation and removal of equipment required at the site to conduct the vendor’s activities; 2. Marketing vendor’s activities and events; 3. Oversee and manage the Operation of the activity. There will be no costs to PATCO associated with vendor-sponsored venue; 4. The vendor will occupy the PATCO parking lots only for a use expressly permitted by PATCO (in PATCO’s sole discretion) and not for any other purpose; 5. The vendor will accept deliveries on Sundays only during the specified hours in the contract through only those areas and other access ways specified by PATCO. PATCO, in its sole discretion, may change the hours, days and access ways permitted for deliveries from time to time by notice to the vendor. The vendor shall comply with such notice as if the hours, days, and access ways had been expressly set forth in the license; 6. Upon execution of a license agreement, the vendor shall pay PATCO as security for the performance of all the terms, covenants, and conditions of the license the amount of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00). This deposit will be retained by PATCO until the expiration of the license provided the parking lots have been vacated, and upon inspection by PATCO of the sites used and the areas are in good order and condition, and vendor has complied with all the terms and conditions outlined in the license agreement. Otherwise, the security deposit, part or all, may be retained or applied against actual loss or damage to PATCO property. If PATCO determines that loss, costs, or damage exceeds the sum, PATCO’s estimate of the amount is final and must be paid by vendor; 7. Vendor will provide insurance in types and amounts acceptable to PATCO; 8. Vendor agrees to comply with all applicable local, state, and federal laws in connection with Vendor’s occupancy of the parking areas and its operations; 9. Vendor agrees to defend, indemnify, save, and hold harmless the DRPA, PATCO and any member of the public as set forth in the standard clauses; 10. Vendor shall not place or maintain any merchandise, signage, trash, refuse or other articles that would obstruct any driveway, corridor, footwalk, parking area, or any other common areas as specified by PATCO; 11.
