REPUBLIC
1. LETTER F INTEREST
One Republic, LLC, a joint venture between Republic Parking System, Inc. and Park One of
Florida, LLC, submits the following proposal to provide professional Parking Management
Services to the City of South Miami.
Republic Parking and Park One offer the City a great combination of "municipal" and "local"
experience. Park One is a fifty year old company based in Miami and is one of the largest
providers of parking services in South Florida. With over 130 clients in South Florida, Park
One has the depth of management and resources needed for your operation. Park One
understands the South Florida parking market, and being a local company takes great pride
in professionally managing operations on their "home court ".
Republic Parking is the largest provider of municipal parking management services in the
United States. Founded in 1966 in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Republic Parking now manages
parking operations in 95 cities across the United States, including many in Florida. An
industry leader in on- street parking enforcement, meter collections and meter repairs,
Republic Parking works with over twenty cities to maximize the potential of their parking
programs.
One Republic is committed to provide a "first class" on- street parking program to the City of
South Miami. We have thoroughly reviewed the requirements of the RFP and related
Addenda. Our experience providing the requested services will be of great value to the City.
Hiring a company with a proven track record of successful management provides the
leaders and staff of South Miami comfort that industry "best practices" are being deployed
in your City.
Proposal Highlights
Consulting Services Republic Parking has helped numerous cities across the
country implement, modernize or redesign their on- street parking program.
Included among our municipal clients are Hartford, CT; Lexington, KY; Louisville, KY;
Lincoln, NE; Chattanooga, TN; Cedar Rapids, IA; Pensacola, FL; Omaha, NE; Ann
Arbor, MI; Springfield, MA; and Scranton, PA. We have worked with all of the latest
technology, including License Plate Recognition systems, making us well positioned
to properly advise the City of South Miami on your parking program.
• Equipment Maintenance - Republic Parking has a great deal of experience working
with your current meter equipment. We have installed and maintained over 200
Digital Lukes in the past couple of years. We are also very familiar with your single
head meters which we have experience working on in many cities.
• Web -Site Development Republic Parking will provide a high quality and
functional website for the City parking program. We have worked with many
municipal clients of ours on similar web site development. The website can offer
parking information, citation payment, citation appeals, permit; purchases, maps and
many marketing opportunities for City businesses.
• Meter Collections - Republic Parking has been collecting parking 'meters for cities
for over 15 years. Some of our meter collection operations include Worcester,
Lowell, Wellesley, Scranton, Hartford, Lexington, Cedar Rapids, Lincoln, Baltimore,
Page 3 of 46
ONE IR South Miami
REPUDLIC
Chattanooga, Syracuse and Omaha. We collect Digital multi- space meters in
Chattanooga, Lexington and numerous other cities.
• Meter Enforcement - Republic Parking has the experience and knowledge from
managing enforcement for more cities than any of our competitors. Republic Parking
provides parking enforcement services for many cities, including Hartford, Lexington,
Louisville, Springfield, Scranton, Chattanooga, Lincoln and Cedar Rapids.
Permit Program - One Republic will implement an on -line parking permit program
for the City utilizing Municipal Citation Solutions parking software system VATS.
Republic Parking is proposing to go from the current paper residential and business
parking permits to "virtual permitting ", which simply means we will use vehicle
license plates as the active credential instead of the cost and hassle of administering
a paper permit program. Citizens will now be able to purchase and renew their
permits on -line through VATS.
• Staffing, Supervision & Management - As the industry leader in municipal on-
street management, the City can be assured you are hiring a company with the
experience, knowledge and people to make your program successful. Please ask our
current clients how well we have supported and managed their parking operations.
The primary contact for One Republic will be:

One Republic has thoroughly reviewed the requirements of the RFP and related Addenda
and is extremely confident in our understanding of the requirements and our ability to
perform the services requested.
The following sections elaborate on our approach to managing your on- street parking
program.
One Republic will utilize the Park One office at 10800 Biscayne Blvd., Suite 950, Miami, FL
33161, to oversee and support our City of South Miami operation.

One Republic will provide Municipal Citation Solutions (MCS) on line parking permit
management software for the City of South Miami. Residents will be able to purchase
parking permits on -line in accordance with the City's ordinances and approved procedures.
Not only will this be more convenient for the residents of South Miami, it will dramatically
improve the overall efficiencies and accuracy of this aspect of the parking program.
One Republic will develop a custom parking website f
suggest be called PARK South Miami. We want the
things parking related, from parking payments to parki
more user friendly the website the more it is utilized.

The increased use of the internet to map out destinations, and the booming GPS industry,
cannot be disputed. Every parking operation must capitalize on these mediums to stay
ahead of the crowd. By developing an enhanced Parking Web page for the City facilities we
can become the predetermined parking location for many visitors. A Google or Yahoo
search for parking in South Miami should pull up a website with maps and directions to the
City's parking garage and lots. Visitors can print maps and perhaps even coupons for
parking. Republic Parking will help redesign and implement the parking website for City for
no additional fee.
Republic Parking also recommends utilizing the increasingly popular social media sites of
Facebook and Twitter as marketing tools.
Republic Parking is the industry leader in providing parking enfon
municipalities. We have developed customized training programs and
we will incorporate into the City of South Miami parking program.

Republic Parking has a great deal of experience in managing meter collections for
municipalities. We fully understand the proper processes and procedures to follow to
ensure revenue control is maintained. The following are some of the Cities for which we
currently collect parking meter revenue:
Republic Parking will collect the revenue from the City's parking meters and the multi -space
meters on a schedule approved by the City.
Proposed Collection Schedule
Republic Parking proposes to maintain three collection routes established based upon
geography and meter counts. Collections will be performed three days a week, Monday -
Wednesday - Friday. On weeks with a Holiday, the collection schedule will be adjusted to
ensure that each meter route is collected every week. Collection teams will begin at 7 a.m.
and should return to the office with the filled collection canisters for counting by 10 a.m.
This will allow sufficient time for logging, counting, bagging and deposit preparation to occur
before the close of business each day.
Standards for Meter Collections
✓ All meters are collected weekly; more often if necessary
✓ All meters are audited each time it is collected, or emptied for Maintenance
✓ Collection is done in teams of two employees, one for emptying the coin cans, the other ,
for auditing
All meters are checked for operation and need for maintenance
✓ Collection technicians much follow prescribed routes, taking prescribed time to achieve
the collection
Meter Collection Methodology
Due to the need for high security for the City revenue, procedures for meter collections are
strict, as will be set forth in our Parking Operations Manual.
Page 7 of 46
Single Space Meter Collections
At the beginning of the collection shift, the collectors are issued sufficient coin canisters to
collect all routes that day. A canister is used for no more than one route. The canister is
locked with a high- security lock to which only our Manager has keys to unlock. In addition,
our Manager shall place a wire seal with unique identifier on each canister, which is
removed only when the canister is delivered to our office for counting.
The collectors are given only the meter keys for the routes to be collected for that day. Key
rings are padlocked onto the collectors belt to reduce the chance of them being lost. Meter
dome keys are not to be provided. The two collection personnel then go to the designated
route for the day, following the prescribed collection path, completing the route before
11:00 a.m. to meet any deposit deadline the bank may have.
Each meter housing is opened one at a time by the first collector. The coin can is removed
and placed into the receptacle on the canister and emptied. The can is then replaced into
the meter vault housing and re- locked. The second collections technician then does the
audit. Upon filling a canister 2/3 full, the technician may use a second canister for that
route, but under no circumstance may that canister be used for more than one route. When
a new route is started, a new canister must be used.
Multi -Space Meter Collections
The following steps will be taken in the collection of reven
machines:
• Empty money vaults will be logged by serial number and issued to the collection
team each morning.
• Multi- space keys will be logged and issued for only the meters to be collected that
day.
Page 8 of 46

"PUBLIC
✓ Collectors will remove the filled vault and replace it with the empty vault. They will
log the filled vault serial number on their collection report. Any issues with the vault
or meter will be logged at that time. Any loose coin or security breaches will be
phoned into the office immediately.
A vault receipt issued from the multi -space machine will be printed and returned for
each meter.
At the end of the collection, the technician returns to the parking office, where the canisters
are logged back in. Republic will develop a secure money counting room with security video
monitors and separate locks with electronic codes. Once the collections are delivered to the
count room, a manager and a rotating employee will use the coin counter to count and bag
the collected monies. By requiring two people to always be in the count room we limit the
opportunity for pilferage. The count machine separates the coins by denomination. When a
bag (called a Fed bag) is full, it will be transported to the bank for credit into the City's
account. Less than full bags will be held in the company's safe until the bag is completely
filled.
Meter Maintenance
If the meters are not working, then a municipality cannot generate any revenue. Within its
operation manual, Republic Parking sets forth its standards for meter maintenance. This
can be categorized into:
✓ Responsive Maintenance
✓ Preventive Maintenance
Responsive Maintenance
In addition to customary reports from packers who notify Republic of meter malfunctions,
every meter is continuously checked for operability by:
Collections and Maintenance Staff - every meter is checked by maintenance and
collections staff when it is collected weekly.
Enforcement Staff - every meter is checked hourly by enforce
proceed on the prescribed route of their beats. In addition,
businesses may advise of broken meters. Any report is logged
immediately called in to the dispatcher for repair. Manage
performs blind tests to ensure that the enforcement staff is ind
require maintenance requests.
Management Staff - in addition to identifying broken meters wl-
supervision, management staff daily reviews the meter audits
anomalies. The audit may show a meter receiving little or no rev

Republic will maintain the maintenance and repair program at t
required by the RFP.

Republic Parking also has significant experience with the installation of multi -space meters.
Training
One Republic will hire a quality individual whose responsibility is to maintain all the meters
for the City. We will also schedule meter maintenance training from select individuals from
Digital and the manufacturers of the single space meters. Training will cover everything
from fixing coin jams to meter installation. As Republic Parking has a well- established
relationship with both Digital (LUKES) we have a clear channel of communication and
support already in place.
Operational Standards
Republic Parking System plans to ensure all meters maintain a 95% or better working
condition on a daily basis. A inoperable meter results in significant revenue loss. This is
particularly true when you are utilizing multi -space equipment which covers up to 12
parking spaces.
Our meter repair plan consists of four important practices:
1.) One Republic will communicate with the City to maintain a backup of additional meter
parts, such as housings, meters, and posts on -site in the City of South Miami for the
meters. For the Digital (LUKES) we suggest carrying an inventory of the major
components, such as bill acceptors, screen displays, printer mechanisms and boards. This
prevents the wait time from ordering meter parts from the meter vendors and allows our
Parking Meter Repairman to repair parts immediately.
2.) All will be visibly checked by the Meter Technician at least twice per week during normal
rounds, and as well when the meter revenue is collected.
3.) One great feature of the Digital (LUKES) system is its ability to send messages via email
and text that notify you of any issues. Typical issues include low power, 'paper jam, full
money vault and jarring of the machine. We will know instantaneously that a LUKE is down,
or soon to be down, which allows for our Meter Technician to quickly respond and have the
unit back in service quickly.
4.) In addition to this practice, each parking enforcemei
document and call in all defective" meters as they walk and
which again will maintain a 95% or better working condition..

demands of its clients and their customers. Republic Parking System is constantly evolving
to meet the complex parking needs of its clients.
From its humble beginning, Republic Parking System has served its clients honestly, eagerly

The following sections detail Republic Parking's comprehensive employee training programs
and the employee selection process. In having a dynamic focused training program
Republic Parking has been able to consistently deliver the highest level of customer services
to our municipal clients. The fact that our average employee tenure far exceeds the
industry standards is a reflection that we are succeeding in hiring the right people and
providing them the training for them to be successful.
Employee Training Matters!
The proper training of our employees is of the highest priority to Republic Parking. We have
developed the most effective training materials used in the parking and transportation
management industry. HR department has the ability to interface with associates at every
level, analyze their jobs and responsibilities, and structure training programs that ensure
the employee has the knowledge and skills to perform at a high level of proficiency. In
addition, we prescribe individual training for those managers who have specific individual
needs to ensure they have all the skill necessary to succeed.
Our HR department takes a "Hands On" approach to training and development of our
employees. Our staff monitors the progress of each management trainee to ensure that
they are progressing at the expected level and covering the required appropriate materials.
They communicate frequently with the trainee and the trainee's supervisor to check on the
trainee's advancement. In addition, they make field visits to conducts customer service
workshops directly to the employees who interface with the patrons. This brings a clear,
undistorted message to them, and provides specific feedback from the users of the program
so he can stay in tune with the needs and demands of the public.

Cashier, Valet and Maintenance Training
The purpose of the training manuals for cashiers, valet drivers, and
maintenance personnel is to ensure that staff at the service level are
proficient and professional. We understand our cashiers, drivers, and
maintenance force are service representatives, and the customers who
utilize our facilities and operations must receive the professional care
they deserve.
The topics in the manuals cover everything from sophisticated,
computerized accounting systems to dealing with a customer complaint.
The results of the training are more professional personnel, improved
customer service, better revenue controls and better maintained
garages.
Customer Service Training is implemented in a number of ways. It is an important part of
the cashier, maintenance, and valet training manuals and videos. Customer Service
Training is an invisible thread that runs through all the training materials and programs. It
is emphasized in the orientation, and reiterated in the customer service workshop where
participants are required to solve customer service case studies using communication skills.
Incident reporting enables management to monitor and evaluate customer service and to
reward outstanding performance.
The following section serves to re -cap the training workshops conducted in the past 5 years
If Looks Could Kill
This was a customer service workshop emphasizing body language in dealing with
customers. The theme of the training was "Behavior Breeds Behavior" and was based on
the theme that if you are courteous and friendly with a customer, he /she will respond in
kind. Numerous exercises require participation.
If It Weren't For Customers
Page 29 of 46

REPUBLIC
Using a video of customer service in a large bank, participants must analyze a number of
customer service transactions that occurred in the bank. The bank is being evaluated by a
large company that is moving into town and this represents an opportunity to acquire a
large, profitable contract. Participants must analyze the customer service problems and
make presentations explaining the problems and recommending solutions. This session
provides many opportunities to learn from both the training material and from each other.
The Guest
Customer service scenarios played out in a restaurant, gas station, retail store and hotel
demonstrate positive and negative examples of customer service. Participants are required
to answer questions relating to the various scenarios in the video. Participants learn from
participating and from the repetition built into the training program.
A Gift From Mrs. Timm
A benefactor leaves a large fortune of cash to the first employee at the hospital who
provided good customer service to the bearer of the sack full of money, Mrs. Timm. She
consistently finds employees who are too busy to listen to her and who continue to pass her
from one staff member to another. She never receives the desired level of customer service
and, ultimately, keeps the money. Facilitated discussion groups help the participants to
apply the principles to the parking business and their respective jobs.
The Safety Deck
Republic Parking System strives to maintain a safe environment for all of our customers.
High quality customer service relates closely to clean, well illuminated parking areas.
Employees participated in exercises designed to increase their awareness of various safety
hazards in and about the parking system. Additionally, the employees learned the role they
can play in preventing dangerous situations for both our customers and their fellow
employees.
Just Incredible
Two friends set out to run errands on a Saturday morning and have two very divergent
experiences. One receives incredibly good service while the other is the recipient of equally
poor service. Facilitated discussion groups and participant exercises reinforce the customer
service message.
Management By Objectives
This is a basic workshop for the Managers and Supervisors designed to teach them how to
develop and use the Management By Objectives program. Each participant is required to
set specific goals relating to their respective job for a designated 'time jperiod.
The Cost of Intolerance
This workshop teaches employees the importance of diversity and sensitivity towards
different cultures, races, religions, ages and genders. Employees who are not sensitive to
diversity can easily and unintentionally offend customers and cost the 'company ;great
amounts of not only money but also ill will. Interactive video exercises require the
participants to evaluate various scenarios and recommend solutions.

to increase productivity. In addition, the managers were taught how to improve
subordinate development and expand their scope of responsibility by effectively using
others.
The Difficult Guest
This workshop teaches employees to identify three types of difficult customers: Distracted
Customer, Disruptive Customer and Disappointed Customer. Each of these types of
customers needs to be handled differently and participants are taught how to deal with each
type. In this workshop the participants were taught the "Last" system for dealing with
difficult customers. Listen, Apologize, Solve and Thank the customer and invite him /her
back.
Give'em the The Pickle
Bob Farrell, founder of Farrell's Old Fashioned Ice Cream Parlours, shares his successful
experiences in customer service that enabled him to grow from one store to more than 300.
Mr. Farrell emphasizes four key components: SERVICE, ATTITUDE, CONSISTENCY and
TEAMWORK. This program is highly motivational and is the favorite of employees across
the country.
Customer Service = Employee Programs
Republic Parking System's commitment to customer service sets us apart in the parking
industry. We go above and beyond what is normally expected by our clients. Every
employee goes through a structured, comprehensive orientation program in which customer
service is emphasized. The emphasis is reinforced in the training manuals which all stress
the importance of customer service and provide structured exercises and written tests to
ensure the employees know how to conduct routine transactions in a friendly, courteous and
professional manner.
We reinforce good customer service by awarding "Customer Service Pens" and "Certificates
of Appreciation" to those employees who receive customer compliment letters or telephone
calls. Awards are made during customer service meeting to provide plaudits and accolades
to deserving employees and to serve as an incentive to motivate others who are present
during the award ceremony.
Customer Service Training is implemented in a number of ways. It is an important part of
the cashier, maintenance, and ambassador training manuals and videotapes. Customer
Service Training is an invisible thread that runs through all the training materials and
programs. It is emphasized in the orientation, and reiterated in the customer service
workshop where participants are required to solve customer service case studies using

Customer Service Programs
Specific customer service programs offered by Republic Parking System include- the
customer survey, employee hotline, customer appreciation day and window washing
programs. Additionally, Republic has programs to help monitor the quality of operations.

Customer Response
Republic Parking System uses a documented procedure to monitor, track and respond to all
customer inquiries. Inquiries range from requests for information, compliments, suggestions
and on occasion, complaints. These inquiries are logged on a Parking Comment Form and
copied to the General Manager. When the Manager responds to the inquiry he is required to
inform the General Manager of the action he took and the results. If a customer is still not
satisfied the General Manager will get involved direct

While on- street parking is designed for short term parking and the use of Time Limits is
designed to encourage people to park in the off - street garages and lots, many cities are
now instituting High Demand on- street parking areas. A High Demand program offers
certain meters, typically near court houses and government buildings, to be used for
extended periods of time for a premium rate. As you can see by reading the case study
below from our Hartford parking operation, a High Demand on- street meter program can
pay other dividends.
Page 38 of 46
Since implementing the progressive rate structure and extended time limits in this area a
vast majority of the transactions are now over 2 hours and a significant portion of that
group are buying the max time allowed. This increased meter revenue however will never
offset the loss of citation revenue. In this instance the reality is that it was implemented as
a customer service program and not from a basis of need.

One Republic suggests the City of South Miami consider purchasing and utilizing a License
Plate Recognition (LPR) system to assist in their parking enforcement program. LPR is the
hottest technology in parking enforcement, and Republic Parking has utilized this technology
with great success for other municipalities in their enforcement programs. The LPR systems
pay for themselves in only a few months of operation.
One Republic is willing to finance the purchase of an LPR system for the City of South
Miami.
LPR can be used in a number of different ways in the parking enforcement program:
.,
In parking management, a "scofflaw" is an individual who "scoffs at the law ", by not
paying his parking citations. The definition varies widely from city to city, but
typically the scofflaw has multiple unpaid citations, say 3 -5 citations, of a specified
age, say at least 10 -14 days old. As the LPR system snaps photos and then "reads"
the vehicle plates, the LPR system compares this plate to a list of scofflaws. If a
match is made, staff is alerted so enforcement can be undertaken.
Time Zone Enforcement
One of the most effective functions of an LPR system is in time zone enforcement.
Most cities limit the length of time a parker can stay at a parking space, whether it is
a paid space or not. Traditional enforcement involves "chalking" of a parked
vehicle's tires - either with a crayon -like piece of "chalk ", or by entering plate,
date /time and location information into an electronic enforcement program. The
enforcement officer then returns after amount of time allowed the parker. If the
vehicle is still in the same location, either as identified by the chalk worn off, or the
electronic enforcement program indicating that the vehicle has not moved, then
enforcement is made. Tradition time zone enforcement is one of the most difficult
tasks in parking management - it is very labor intensive, it requires precise
enforcement routings, is subject to significant error, and generates frequent citizen
complaints.
With an LPR system, this process is easy, accurate, and efficient. The LPR vehicle
can pass through area quickly at traffic speeds, covering the downtown area of a
mid -size city in the time it would have taken 4 -6 enforcement officers. This LPR
system takes a photo and records the location of every vehicle it passes. The LPR
vehicle then can return at any time; the system calculates whether the parked
vehicle is in violation.
Permit Enforcement
Parking permits are used in neighborhood areas, in ungated parking lots and
facilities, and on- street. With on- street parking, permits may be used to reserve
Page 40 of 46
IRSouth Miami
REPUBLIC
specific spaces, to allow parking to residents in a mixed -use area, or to allow access
generally to all spaces, such as for government agencies.
The LPR system, as it travels through the enforcement area, takes photos of all
vehicles, "reads" the license plates, then compares this license plate against a list of
permitted vehicles which has been loaded into the LPR system. If the system
identifies that a vehicle is not on the permitted list, then the LPR operator is alerted
about a possible violation. The operator then verifies the vehicle plate was read
accurately. If correct, the enforcement officer issues a citation, at which time the
plate plus its state are compared in real time to the list of permitted vehicles.
Vehicle Location
The LPR system has a wide range of capabilities to locate vehicles, since it is continuously
identifying vehicles. Common uses include:
• Location of stolen vehicles
• Location of vehicles whose owners have outstanding warrants.
• Parking patterns of vehicles as part of criminal investigations
• Location of vehicles under Amber Alerts
• Location of vehicles with unpaid taxes (usually personal property taxes on the vehicles)
Data Collection
The LPR system has the capability to provide extensive data about parking system. The LPR
photographs all vehicles and maintains a log of the vehicles, their location and time of parking. This data
can be used to determine parking space utilization, length of parking and turnover, as well as the violation
rate and effectiveness of current enforcement.
How does the LPR System Work?
The LPR mounts high- definition cameras on a vehicle.
The camera consists of two lenses — first a lens for
visible light and the other for infrared light. The
system takes the photographs of each vehicle with
both lenses, using the infrared image to process the
reading of the plate. This facilitates vehicle
identification in low light
Placement of cameras depends on the objective of
the enforcement. Cameras can be set to read the
vehicle license plates in the following configurations:
• Passenger -side parallel parking — first camera
• Passenger -side angle parking (45° or 60 °) —
first camera
• Passenger -side pull -in parking (90 °) —
second camera
• Driver -side parallel parking — Third camera
Additional cameras may be placed on the LPR vehicle to provide a si
Depending on the shape and size of the LPR vehicle, typical placem(

RVISUBLIC
Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
ffl
The LPR, after taking a photo of the vehicle, the software is programmed to identify the region of the
vehicle in which the license plate is located. It "looks" for an area containing numbers and letters. This is
why it will occasionally read street signage thinking it is a license plate. Once the plate area is identified,
the program software translates the image into text, which can be processed into data which can be used
in one of the enforcement functions described in the beginning of this document. The LPR program
saves not only the photos from the vehicle, but also an image, called a patch, of both plate itself and the
text as read by the OCR.
The VATS -LPR vendor is a world -wide distributor of its software, and has customized the OCR engine for
every country and every U.S. state. The LPR system will not read every plate, nor will nor will the OCR
always be correct. This does not affect enforcement. The LPR operator is alerted when a vehicle is not
photographed, by pinging every successfully photographed vehicle. The operator may select, dependent
on the operational rules of the parking program, to manually enter a plate. Coverage with the LPR
system is more extensive and more accurate that the traditional chalkinq technique, whether done
manually or electronically.
Typical causes for a non -read:
• Vehicle out of position
• Plate view blocked vehicles parking too close
• Plate dirty or old
• Plate obstructed by hitches, covers, frames

Vehicle Assistance
At present Republic Parking System offers our customers assistance with minor vehicle
problems that should arise during normal working hours. Several services we could provide
would be jump - starts for dead batteries; assistance in finding lost vehicles and inflating flat
tires.
Dead Battery Jump Starts
Republic Parking System recommends the purchase of a "Jump-N- Carry that would be
stored at the Garages and available for patrons needing a jump start. This is a portable unit
that is extremely versatile and easy to use.
Inflating Flat Tires
Republic Parking System recommends the purchase of a portable air compressor to help
patrons with flat tires. Air compressors are easy to use and usually will fill a car tire in
minutes. Normally, Republic Parking System prohibits employees from changing tires due
to liability reasons.
Locksmith Service
Republic Parking System has an agreement with Pop -A -Lock to provide assistance with
vehicle lockouts. We have found that Pop -A -Lock is willing to provide the service at a
substantial reduced rate, which is greatly appreciated by the customer during these
stressful times.
Ancillary Services
Republic Parking proposes for consideration the following ancillary services to be offered in
the garages that would generate additional revenue as well as be customer amenity.
Republic Parking has many garages that offer car washing, oil changes, vehicle repairs, dry
cleaning and vending of products. The services are provided by local businesses in most
cases and can result in a win -win for the City and the businesses.
✓ Car Wash / Detail Service - This service can be performed on -site, or off -site,
effectively. An arrangement is worked out where the service is advertised to our
monthly customers. The company must provide proof of adequate insurance and
financial capacity to perform the services. A financial arrangement based upon a
revenue share or unit payment typically works best. Our experience is that these
operations take about six to nine months to establish themselves, and then tend to
do quite well. In Houston we have a car wash that washes up to 200 cars a day and
has been on -going for over 15 years.
✓ Oil Change / Auto Repair - This service needs to be performed off -site for liability
purposes. The typical arrangement is to have our customers request service,
typically done over the phone or internet. We designate a few spaces on the ground
floor where the customer can park their vehicle needing service. A key lock box is
installed where the customer inserts their keys. The service comes by and drives

the car to their facility where the work is performed. The service returns the vehicle
to the garage parking it in the designated spaces and then arranges to return the
keys to the customer and collect payment.
Movie Vending - Republic Parking would enter into an agreement with one of the
movie rental companies (Redbox, Blockbuster, etc.) to install units in the garages.
The City would be paid a percentage of revenue from each machine.
Dry Cleaning - The typical arrangement here is for Drop Off Boxes to be installed in
the garages where customers could drop their dry - cleaning off in the morning.
Pickup and payment of the clothing takes place at the dry - cleaning store. It is the
convenience of being able to drop off the clothing at the garage that is attractive to
our customers. Typically the dry cleaner would pay for the cost of the drop off unit
and pay a monthly fee to have the location. Customers would sign up with the dry
cleaner, with help from our promotion of the service, and provide their customer
with a laundry bag they would put their clothing into before placing it in the drop
boxes.
Parker of the Month - First we would pick a prime spot in the garage, near the
elevator or entrance to the building, and label it as reserved. Each month we
randomly select a contract parker in good standing and award them the title of
parker of the month. This person wins the right to designate that space as theirs
for the designated month.
Customer Appreciation Day - We pick a certain date and proclaim "customer
appreciation day ". We hang small banners on the entrance and exit lanes that state
"thank you" and we welcome each parker with a "gift ". Water bottles, the daily
newspaper or pens make a relatively inexpensive gift making it possible to do a little
something for everyone.
Surveys
An important part of Republic Parking System's customer service focus is the use of Parking
Customer Surveys. The surveys provide us with two types of information: (1) What are the
services and dimensions of parking that are most important to them, and (2) How do they
rate our performance in those important areas. This methodology helps Republic Parking
System to concentrate its management efforts to emphasize excellence in those areas that
are most important to our customers and clients.
Republic Parking System could provide stamped post card survevs to customers as then are
exiting the parking ramps. These surveys give the

SWORN STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 287.133 (3)(a),
THIS FORM MUST BE SIGNED AND SWORN TO IN THE PRESENCE OF OR
OTHER OFFICIAL AUTHORIZED TO ADMINISTER OATHS.
This sworn statement is submitted to The City of South Miami Beach Florida

whose business address is 633 Chestnut Street. Suite 2000

and (if applicable) its Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) is 60- 162636'- (If the
entity has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn statement:
2. 1 understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1)(g), Florida Statutes,
means a violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to
the transaction of business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any
other state or of the United States, including, but not limited to , any bid or contract for goods
or services to be provided to any public entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other
22
state or of the United States and involving antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering,
conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.
3. 1 understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1)(b), Florida
Statutes, means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an
adjudication of guilt, in any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by
indictment or information after July 1, 1989, as a result of a jury verdict, non -jury trial, or entry
of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.
4. 1 understand that an "affiliate" as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1)(a), Florida Statutes, means:
(a) A predecessor or successor of a person convicted of a public entity crime; or
(b) An entity under the control of any natural person who is active in the management of
the entity and who has been convicted of -a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes
those officers, directors, executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents
who are active in the management of an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares
constituting a controlling interest in any person, or a pooling of equipment or income among
persons when not for fair market value under an arm's length agreement, shall be a prima facie
case that one person controls another person. A person who knowingly enters into a joint
venture with a person who has been convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during the
preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.
5.- I understand that a "person" as defined in Paragraph 287.133 (1)(e), Florida Statutes, means any
natural person or entity organized under the Jaws of any state or of the United States with the
legal power to enter into a binding contract and which bids or applies to bid on contracts for
the provision of goods or services led by a public entity, or which otherwise transacts or applies
to transact business with a public entity. The term "person" includes those officers, directors,
executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, and agents who are active in
management of an entity.
6. Based on information and belief, the statement which I have marked below is true in relation to
the entity submitting this sworn statement. [Indicate which statement applies.]
X Neither the entity submitting this sworn statement, nor any of its officers, directors,
executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the
management of the entity, nor any affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of
a public entity crime subsequent to July I, 1989.
The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors,
executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the
management of the entity, or an affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a
public entity crime subsequent to July I, 1989.
- The entity submitting this sworn statement, or one or more of its officers, directors,
executives, partners, shareholders, employees, members, or agents who are active in the
management of the entity, or an affiliate of the entity has been charged with and convicted of a
public entity crime subsequent of July I, 1989. However, there has been a subsequent
23
proceeding before a Hearing Officer of the State of Florida, Division of Administrative Hearings
and the Final Order entered by the Hearing Officer determined that it was not in the public
interest to place the entity submitting this sworn statement on the convicted vendor /contractor
list. {attach a copy of the final order.]

improvements and equipment are normally received ratably over the life of the lease.
Therefore, a portion of these receivables is due after one year and is reported as non-current
receivables in the accompanying combined balance sheets. Management believes all
amounts recorded in receivables at December 31, 2012, are fully collectible.
Property and equipment.
Property and equipment are carried at cost. When properties are retired or otherwise
disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income. Depreciation of property and
equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets. The estimated useful lives used in computing depreciation expense are as follows:
Leasehold improvements
Equipment
Automobiles and trucks
Furniture and fixtures
Life of lease up to 15 years
1-5 years
