t Memorandum TO: Employees in the Whiffed Building From: John Link, County Manager RE: Parking Plan for Whiffed Date: May 15, 2002 As many of you know, there will be some exciting improvements occumng at the Whiffed Building in the near future, including: • The installation of anew heating and air conditioning system; • The renovation of the clinic area of the Health Department; and • The long-awaked paving of some of your parking areas. You will be hearing more about the heating and air conditioning system replacement and other nnovaton projects as their commencement date gets closer. Howevep I wanted to share some good news about the parking situation with you now. Plans are currently underway to design and pave the parking lots on Hassell Street across from the bus parking lot and the east parking lot off of Tryon Street. We will also be making Improvements to the bus parking lot and the rear lot off of Hassell Street, although they are not targeted for paving. We will move forward with the bidding of the project following approvals by the Town of Hillsborough and Me NC Erosion Control (AprillMayj. We estimate that the County Commissioners should approve the project such that work can commence in July with completion within 3035 days. In the meantime, there is an immediate need to address the parking at your building. You era probably all aware that citizens have sent a petition to the County recently because of their inability to find adequate parking. In order to provide some organization to the parking situation and to render a higher level of service to our customers, I asked members of my Staff and Department Heads at your facility to recommend a parking plan for the facility. I endorsed the resulting plan that will go into effect on June 3, 2002 as follows: • The OPT buses have been re-located to the Public Works compound • Appropriate signage will be posted by the Public Works Department designating the following parking areas as "Public Parking Only': • Hassell Steel lot across from the bus parking lot no be paved); and • The existing bus parking lot (to be improved). • Appropriate signal will be pasted by the Public Works Department designating the following parking areas as 'Employee Parking': • The east parking lot off of Tryon Street(to be paved): :and • The rear parking lot off of Hassell Street (to be improved).
