 Chapter 414. VALET PARKING

  § 414-7. Valet Parking Board.  

Latest version.

  • There is hereby created a Valet Parking Board consisting of the Director of Community and Economic Development, the traffic engineer, the Chief of Police, or their designees. The solicitor's office shall provide legal support to the Valet Parking Board as necessary. In addition the Valet Parking Board may have a non-voting representative of the businesses in the zone which will use the valet parking. The business representative shall be selected by a vote of the business owners using valet parking within the zone. The three voting members of the Board are authorized to draft rules regarding the method of selecting the non-voting member and the length of his term.

    The traffic engineer may establish a valet parking zone based upon an independent determination of a need, or at the request of an interested business pursuant to 414-3 herein. In the case where the traffic engineer independently determines a need for the establishment of a valet zone, the valet parking board shall advertise at least once, in the City Bulletin, seeking valet parking businesses to operate in the valet parking zone. Subsequently the board shall consider all interested businesses and select one valet provider for the newly created valet parking zone. However, in the case where the traffic engineer is approached by a valet parking business requesting the creation of a valet parking zone which that business intends to service, the Valet Parking Board need not go through the advertising process outlined above. In making its decision as to which business to select to operate a newly established valet parking zone, the board shall consider:

    (a)

    The wants of the businesses whose customers use valet parking, the affected neighborhood and business associations, and any affected citizen.

    (b)

    The level of valet parking services to be provided.

    (c)

    The proximity of the garage or lot proposed to be used by the provider.

    (d)

    The amounts to be charged for valet parking.

    (e)

    Any other relevant factors.
