BACKGROUND INFORMATION: United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) has been cleaning the Downtown Public Parking Lots since 2000. Since that time, they have been successfully used at several City facilities. UCP provides meaningful work for the disabled. This program provides transportation and direct supervision for the UCP crew. In addition to strengthening the self-esteem of these crew members, the citizens of Lodi receive a service not otherwise provided A UCP crew is composed of four (4) persons plus a supervisor. The contract rate for a crew is $46.50 per hour. UCP is the only non-profit organization that pays the disabled minimum wage. All others pay the crew members less and cite additional benefits such as training, transportation, supervision, and overhead as reasons for below -minimum wage. The contract consists of removing trash and litter from the Downtown Public Parking Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, City Hall, Lodi Station, and Lodi Station Parking Structure. This service is provided Monday through Friday in the evenings, with some locations being serviced multiple times during the week. UCP has been called in the past from time to time to address one-time needs as well. Funding will come from Transit and General Funds. FISCAL IMPACT: The overall fiscal impact is minor when service/benefit received is compared to cost. The entire community uses Downtown parking lots. A clean Downtown area improves the overall impression of a safe and welcoming environment. Lodi Station is not only the first impression for many visitors, but also the only impression for many passing through Lodi by train. However, the portion of the work in the five Downtown public lots exceeds the budget by approximately $6.000. This work is funded by the General Fund. The shortfall will be met by utilizing funds budgeted for a parking lot pavement seal, which will be deferred until next year. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Funds for this contract are provided in the 2007108 Operating budget. Project Estimate: $38,874 Budgeted: General Fund — Downtown Parking Lot Maintenance ($16,716) Transit Fund — Lodi Station and Lodi Station Parking Structure Maintenance ($22.158) (Ki Evans, Budget • Richard C.
