File Number: 22-290 The City currently has 69 MacKay single and dual-space meters located in Pelton Center and on West Juana Avenue. These meters are 3G enabled which means that they will cease to have wireless communication when all cell carriers discontinue 3G communications later this year. This will impact all credit card processing at the meter and all communications with MacKay for data collection and reporting purposes. Therefore, the meters must be upgraded to 4G LTE to ensure ongoing functionality. All other parking meters in operation throughout the City are POM meters. The POM meters only accept coin and parts are no longer available for purchase to perform essential repairs. The only way to continue repairs is to take existing POM meters out of service in areas where the City does not generate significant revenues. Staff, in conjunction with Dixon Resources Unlimited, has identified 27 potential street segments with existing POM meters that can be converted to the 4G enabled MacKay meters. Staff is proposing to use the existing budget appropriations in fiscal years 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 to fund the conversion. With the existing appropriation, staff can purchase 63 new dual-space meters, 26 new single-space meters, pay for 15-months of gateway fees for the new meters, and pay ongoing gateway fees for the 69 existing meters for the proposed contract term ending on December 4, 2023. $52,396 has been budgeted in fiscal year 2021-2022 and in fiscal year 2022-2023 for the purchase of the equipment and the gateway fees.
