Maintenance and operation experience for T2 pay stations LAZ municipal team has extensive and hands on operational experience with T2 pay stations. Although we partner with dozens of cities across the U.S. with T2 technology, our most relevant experience is within the neighboring city of Long Beach where we manage all City beach lots with T2 pay stations. Our technicians are Level II certified with advanced knowledge of both the T2 Luke Pay stations and T2 Iris software. Our team is well versed in all aspects of T2 multi -space parking control systems, including assembly and reassembly of units, overall operations, and individual components such as coin selectors, card readers, coin vault locking systems, electronic keys, printers, process control equipment and communication equipment. We also have advanced knowledge of principles and practices of effective meter management, parking meter hardware and software installation, maintenance, detect and diagnose malfunctions, troubleshooting, repair and operations, back -of -house software system and data management. 10. Experience with mobile payment providers LAZ has been working with mobile payment technology for over 10 years. We have worked with various mobile payment providers including Park Mobile, Pay by Phone, Passport, Mobile Now to name a few. We will continue to use ParkMobile in the City system unless a change is desired. ParkMobile lets us offer flexible, contactless payment options to a diverse group of customers, including the ability to manage varying rates and access credentials for different stakeholder groups automatically through the ParkMobile app. We have experience with ParkMobile in multiple markets spanning 20+ states. In one example, we use ParkMobile in our New Rochelle operations, which includes approximately 6,000 spaces located within 15 surface lots, two garages and over 1,000 on -street metered spaces. Upon contract award, it is our intent to work closely with the City and Park Mobile to enhance the overall approach to cashless payment methods and parking reservation system. We will bring our experts to market and advertise the program more aggressively by educating the public with the help of print, online and social media. 11. Demonstrate ability to successfully operate and maintain the City's paid parking system, including routine maintenance, operations management, fee management administration, and public relations Decades of experience managing large municipal and on -street parking systems has taught us what you already know: this is a massive task. Our parking management solution not only meets and exceeds the needs of the City but is proven through our years of service to similar communities especially in coastal environments. Our comprehensive approach to parking management provides sustainable solutions that enhance communities, streamline parking operations, and improve the financial position of our clients. Our team has an unmatched track record operating municipal parking facilities and on -street programs managing more than 400,000 parking spaces for federal, state, and local government agencies. We have a very keen focus on implementing efficient operational procedures, dynamic marketing campaigns, revenue integrity systems, revolutionary technology applications and best -in -class customer service initiatives. Below is an overview of our methodology and approach to managing some of these activities to ensure the continued success of the Newport Beach parking program. Asset Management and Meter Maintenance We will develop a comprehensive Asset Management and Meter Maintenance Plan and submit for City approval at the start of the contract. This plan will become part of the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for the entire parking management program. Our parking meter technicians follow our Meter Concept of Operations (COO) „ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services a PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA i RFP NO.23-471 MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parking22 RORGANIZATION- manual. Our lead technician plans, schedules and coordinates work for our meter tech team on a weekly basis; determines resource needs of work group; directs work of crews. Our meter tech team uses our proprietary meter maintenance application to organize and record work and to maintain asset inventory information. Our lead meter tech reviews the work of and provides training and guidance to other meter staff. Also serves as a lead field tester for new software updates including meter rate program changes; tests programing corrections and makes recommendations to meter vendor (in this case T2) to address errors; transmits data to or results to the vendor for analysis and documentation. Our proposed Assistant Manager will develop detailed written procedures that will become part of our SOP/Concept of Operations manual with step -by step instructions for use by our meter technicians to upload corrected programs; provides technical expertise and guidance to our meter tech team regarding installation, maintenance, troubleshooting, repair, operation, and provides training for installing software upgrades and rate changes. OUR PROPOSED SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PLAN Our team will respond to and resolve all trouble calls as reported within 24 hours or next business day. They will repair all meters listed on the meter repair report. Our crew will run Faulty Meters Report and Non -communicating Meters Report on a weekly basis, in addition, we will place our crew on a bi-weekly refresh of these reports and resolve all items listed. As part of their regular assignments, our maintenance staff will install and remove meters as well as straighten all bent meter posts reported unless removal and replacement are required. They will also change meter batteries, coin validators, card readers, lens covers, or any other meter parts as necessary. They will also conduct daily test of meter batteries and re -charge them as needed. They will replace meter mechanisms and ship them to the meter manufacturer for repairs if they are unable to repair the meter in our shop. They will also replace or repair meter housing, yokes, vault doors, locks, or other related hardware as necessary. As part of their regular assigned maintenance schedule, crew will paint metered areas for short-term or restricted uses as necessary. PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE While the Scheduled Maintenance Plan will focus on addressing issues reported by the City and Meter MMS, we will place a high priority in developing a Preventative Maintenance Plan which will include regular upkeep of the meter mechanisms and associated parts. This will include regular, scheduled, ongoing cleaning of coin validators, card readers, screens, and oiling of the locks and doors four (4) times a year. A comprehensive checklist of maintenance tasks will be maintained targeting each zone and sub zone to ensure that every meter is touched at least weekly. As part of their scheduled tasks, our crew will also install and replace meter decals as necessary including credit card decals, meter number decals and meter holiday decals. CLEANING SCHEDULE Like our approach to preventative maintenance of all meters, we will develop a regular meter cleaning schedule on a regular cycle. This will include wiping down and cleaning each meter mechanism and housing of dust, debris, soot, grime, graffiti, and stickers. Our crew will implement a schedule to cover cleaning of meters to achieve 100 meters per day or 500 meters per week. This schedule will be submitted to the City for approval prior to implementation. METER & SPARE PARTS INVENTORY MANAGEMENT Our team will stock and maintain inventory of spare parts including collection keys, locks, collection cards, tools and installation hardware. LAZ Parking will plan to maintain a surplus inventory of ten (10) percent meter parts as well as five (5) percent each of the meter batteries and meter housings. In addition, we will maintain a sufficient stock of frequently used parts such as coin validators, credit card readers, screen covers, and credit card decals. MONTHLY REPORTING ,^„ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services ^.PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO.23-471 MARCH 29, Parking 2023 Section A: Pkin °n ORGANIZATION" g �� LAZ Parking will maintain and provide the City a monthly report documenting all meters repaired, cleaned, installed, and removed. In addition, the daily/weekly preventative maintenance checklist will be provided to the City as part of our monthly reporting package. Operations Management To fulfill the requirements of the contract, our management team will use the unique experience and knowledge gained in similar municipal parking environments to both meet and exceed the evolving needs of the Newport Beach parking program, from day one through the entire lifecycle of the contract. Our project approach strives to infuse "The LAZ Way' of Mission, Values and Practices into the everyday operation of duties to increase value for our clients and demonstrate commitment to our employees. In this way, we can do what we do best — provide turnkey parking management services to the City of Newport Beach to include parking meter management and parking enforcement. When beginning a project of this complexity, a crucial objective is to design a blueprint for success — a goal which can be easily accomplished with the right administrative leadership team. To our strength, LAZ operates with a customer -centric approach which allows us to immediately internalize the goals of our clients and provide a high level of service starting on Day 1. Our formula for success for our clients is simple, be a Partner in Parking and deliver on the scope of services forthwith. Our proposed leadership team for Newport Beach is made up of dedicated, experienced, and enthusiastic leaders who take great pride in representing a municipality as their ambassadors. Our track record for supporting major cities across the U.S. in the long term is not just demonstrated via our outstanding work each day, but through our team's commitment to the operation. LAZ's proposed local management team boasts personnel who have had the opportunity to rise through the ranks to become managers and leaders. Our managers value the work we provide and enjoy working closely with the City personnel and stakeholders alike. Our long-term and mutually beneficial relationship with all levels of City staff will allow us to share the goals of Newport Beach and provide exceptional service and value to both meter operations and enforcement activities. Additionally, with the backing of the LAZ Government Services team, our local team will be fully supported to allow staff to excel personally, professionally and to be assets to the City of Newport Beach. Fee and Revenue Management LAZ Parking will comply with the requirements set forth in the RFP for meter collection services. Upon commencement of the agreement, we will: • Provide timely collections of all parking meters. • Provide for the safety and security of all staff, equipment, and revenue. • Provide fast and accurate processing of all revenue. • As a part of the collection and processing of revenue, we will provide recommendations for equipment that can streamline collection and processing; additionally, we will assist with the acquisition of recommended equipment at the City's request. • Provide daily, weekly, monthly, and annual collection and deposit reports. • Incorporate all revenue forms into financial reports submitted to the City. • Be responsible for the accurate collection and depositing of all revenues associated with the City's on -street parking and curb lane management system. NACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services "PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CAI RFP NO.23-47 1 MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parkin 24 ,"PARKING g COLLECTION METHODOLOGY LAZ Parking has stringent controls in place to ensure that all collections are properly recorded and accounted. The production of optimal routes and schedules is not a static activity —collection schedules require constant review and the ability to adjust collection frequency, if necessary. Our established methods and techniques for analyzing and interpreting data to deliver greater efficiencies will continue to improve as we share insights and suggestions with the City. Upon contract award, we intend to use the detailed revenue analysis reports and City requirements as the core data to determine whether routes need to be adjusted in frequency or crew configuration (our parking meter collection plan). By frequently assessing collection routes, we optimize the use of collection resources. We have an intimate knowledge gained through years of experience of the geographical landscape and, as importantly, the traffic patterns of the cities where we operate. This knowledge allows us to take local geography and traffic into account for routing purposes when new meters are installed, or route plans change. Our plans consider the different parking meter rates and payment methods. For example, routes with high credit card usage often require lower collection frequency than ones with higher coin revenue. LAZ Parking will review collection plans closely with the City each month and adjust them accordingly to meet new demands and parking meter revenue changes, while ensuring that no parking meter canister is more than 85 percent full at any time. We will continue to evolve and respond to the changing parking meter revenue environment as new technologies in parking meter payment systems are introduced, applying a thorough and detailed examination of all reported data to the routing and scheduling of the collection plan. Recognizing the importance of data and analysis on the production of efficient collection plans, we propose to hold monthly meetings with City personnel to ensure the most accurate representation of data. If data accuracy has anomalies, we initiate action to confirm and then adjust as necessary. KEY FEATURES OF OUR PROPOSED COLLECTION PLAN INCLUDE: • Using daily, weekly, and monthly route and meter revenue data, meter parking rates, payment methods and meter technology to determine the best routes. • Designing collection work so that the number of collection crew shifts required to collect the assigned meters maximizes revenue across the five (5) workdays of the week. • Keep multi -space meter collection into single routes to enhance revenue tracking. • Minimizing non -productive time by reducing driving time between collection routes, enabling collectors to collect more parking meters and avoid sitting idle between routes or spending time driving extended distances between routes. • Maintaining a detailed repository of collection routes which list locations, inventory, collection frequency, days collected, and collection crew responsible for each route. As revenue increases or decreases in each area, LAZ Parking will propose collection frequency changes to the City as needed. • Implementing any scheduling changes by the City within five (5) business days of notification. • Reviewing subzone maps immediately upon contract award and updating as necessary. Each collection crew member carries a set of maps to ensure that collectors are aware of the routes and do not miss collecting any meters. • Optimizing collection route and subzone boundaries in association with the collection maps. '"ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services PARKING LIM CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA i RFP NO.23-47 I MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parkin 25 ORGANIZATION- J • Providing special collections on holidays and weekends as requested by the City. • Providing special collection days citywide for loose coins in the meter wells as requested by the City. • Providing a specific crew for just -in -time collections for all major holidays including New Years, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and July 4. • During the weeks in which a holiday falls, we adjust collections accordingly on the other business days to cover the lost day and ensure that all revenues are collected. All collections will be accomplished in a rotation period with collection frequency reflecting meter usage. All meters will be collected in accordance with the plan established by City -approved rotating schedule and will be changed accordingly as needed. We maximize collection routes and schedules to ensure adequate time for meter auditing and will work with the City for final approval of all routes and schedules provided to our collectors. Our collectors also will report out -of -service meters or other discrepancies observed during the collection process using our proposed Meter Maintenance App. MULTI SPACE METER COLLECTION WORKFLOW The multi -space parking meter collection workflow is depicted below. LAZ's workflow ensures we meet contract requirements. Outcomes, EAII pay stations collected in accordance with the City's procedures l pay stations are secured eal-time reports on pay station conditions and issues j Administration Collector locks the pay station and ensures that it is secure LAZ will provide sufficient, qualified personnel in all contract -required positions, whose responsibility will be to oversee project goals and ensure fair and consistent parking enforcement, and timely coin and data collection, meter maintenance and all support services. The entire proposed project management team has worked on many levels in similar parking operations and understand the full complement of parking management skills. Our managers will be available whenever called upon and for participation in regular meetings and reviews. OUR PROJECT TEAM WILL DELIVER, AT A MINIMUM, THE FOLLOWING: • Oversight and administration of all work performed, including documenting all administrative procedures, controls, and processes designed to monitor and ensure compliance with all contract services and responsibilities. • Administration of the resource allocation plan to ensure that appropriate resources are available. -ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services ` ^PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO.23-471 MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parkin V RORGANIZATION'" g 2 • Scope and budgetary estimates for supplies, equipment and parts purchasing as directed by the City. • Teaming with the City staff to execute an effective parking plan, including appropriate enforcement coverage, and regular review of revenue trends and reconciliation methods, and all special assignments where LAZ can provide support and value. • Oversight and primary responsibility for the work of all suppliers and vendors, including but not limited to Turbo Data and T2 system and all related parking support systems. • Participation in monthly progress meetings with the City. Public Relations LAZ Parking will develop and submit for City approval a Customer Service and Public Relations Plan within 90 days after contract award. This plan will be incorporated into the master Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) manual. This plan will include at a minimum the following key areas to enhance the overall customer experience. PUBLIC PARKING AWARENESS PLAN - Educating customers on parking rates, parking availability and parking options, parking rules and regulations. This will be promoted via City parking website and through social media. LAZ PARKING AMBASSADOR PROGRAM — To create a culture of compliance instead of targeted enforcement. COMMUNITY OUTREACH — Our team will assist in City -led efforts to inform residents, business owners, tourists and visitors about the parking program, including community and stakeholder outreach. Our project team will represent the City in business association and community meetings to address any parking issues and concerns and will act as its parking advisors throughout the contract term. 12. Experience and qualifications in providing excellent customer service to the public. The proposer may also provide additional information regarding their experience in maintaining productive ongoing relationships with government entities Our longstanding client base with continuous competitive recompetes across multiple decades testify to the strength of our experience and qualifications in providing excellent customer service to the public. As evidence, cities of San Francisco and Chicago has partnered with us for over 20 years; and West Hollywood and Montgomery County has kept our partnership intact for over 30 years. All these contracts were re -awarded recently for the next 5-10 years respectively. With over 100 municipal clients nationwide, these are just a few examples of the many municipal contracts we have managed continuously for over 10 years. Gaining the trust of a municipality is hard but to maintain the same level of trust for 10-20-30 years is what we are most proud of. In the specific case of Newport Beach, we recognize that your internationally recognized beach community depends on its tourists and local inhabitants enjoying pleasant experiences in the City. LAZ has forged, by design, an exceptionally effective employee culture that immerses itself and takes pride in our clients' communities, resulting in low turnover and high levels of engagement. In cases where our clients approve, we can put forward a community outreach plan for public education around how the various technologies work including meters and mobile pay, and attendance at local business and community association meetings and neighborhood watch meetings to enhance the parking experience by promoting proactive stakeholder involvement. Integral to our programs is a strong emphasis on customer service training for all employees that may interact with the public. Throughout training, new team members have the opportunity to work with various field trainers and supervisors to ensure that they have a thorough understanding of their routes, the delicate nature of the equipment „ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services I LZ PARKING CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CAI RFP NO.23-47 i MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parkin 27 RORGANIZATION'- g that they support, the importance of their personal safety, and the security of the City's monies. We focus on their customer service skills; given our presence in the field, the public often associates us with the City and we work very hard to ensure that our team always displays a positive approach and a professional appearance. Our team recognizes that our work includes much more than just doing our job —we are ambassadors of the City and we strive every day to leave a positive impression on the residents, patrons and tourists in the City. Regarding parking management, our collectors and meter maintenance staff are considered frontline staff on our clients' streets. These personnel are the face of LAZ, and by extension, they are ambassadors of your City. We recognize the importance of what we do, and our parking management team takes pride in its appearance through their consistency of any public interactions and customer service orientation. As for parking enforcement, this sense of community translates into our people embracing their role as ambassadors for the City —often helping tourists and residents alike with information and directions —which will further enhance Newport Beach's reputation as a welcoming destination for work and play. Our Parking Enforcement Field Supervisors monitor staff daily while they are on the streets to audit performance and assess staff performance for positive public interactions. As ambassadors of your City, it is important that our employees represent the City in a professional and courteous manner. We look for people who are people -focused and bring positive energy and professionalism to the field. Experience in maintaining productive ongoing relationships with government entities. The key to our experience in maintaining productive ongoing relationships with government often boils down simply to open communication. All levels of our operation maintain close and continuous communications with City stakeholder levels. LAZ believes that full transparency and accountability in our operations is paramount to our client partnerships and an essential part of our success formula. Our managers and supervisors possess good oral and written communications skills to report and communicate with City staff. As a natural part of our open communications, we often dialogue with our clients about their lingering issues; or we receive calls when unexpected relevant issues arise. As a good partner, we commonly draw from our industry knowledge base and can often therefore perform consultant work at little to no cost. 13. Expertise in relevant parking engineering standards, specifications, policies, practices and processes As outlined in detail in chapter 15 of this section, LAZ has hands-on experience managing and overseeing large complex capital improvement and parking infrastructure improvement projects. Working on both new and existing parking systems, our team guides clients through the complete life cycle of parking, from parking demand analysis to concept development, design, infrastructure upgrade and beyond, including operations, maintenance, and restoration of parking assets. Our vast operations experience equips us with the knowledge to deliver a fully integrated parking solution designed with the end user in mind. Our biggest undertaking and some of the most recent projects include overhaul of San Francisco meter system, modernizing and upgrading City of Nashville parking meter system, and project management of Chicago Parking meter system. We are familiar with most Parking Engineering Standards and have continuously assisted and advised multiple cities as they upgraded their parking meter systems and implemented cutting edge technology. As their management systems evolved, we were there to advise them every step of the way. We bring not only strong expertise in infrastructure upgrades but also design, build, operate and maintain experience and help cities redefine and roll out new parking policies especially in first time privatized parking operations. We frequently manage and oversee complete infrastructure improvements for cities and DOTS including installation, operations, and maintenance of parking signage, Dynamic Messaging Signs (DMS), and other parking infrastructure upgrades.

LAZ Parking works closely with SecurityMetrics, our PCI-DSS ASV (Authorized Scanning Vendor) and QSA (Qualified Security Assessor) on maintaining PCI DSS Level 1 compliance status, reviewing current security trends and vulnerability risk mitigation, www.securitymetrics.com. 15. Demonstrate ability to efficiently undertake capital improvements to the paid parking system LAZ has a proven track record of assisting our customers and providing overall project oversight of parking infrastructure and capital Improvements, technology upgrades, and management of product support and procurement activities. Our biggest testament to this and some of our most recent projects include the complete overhaul of the San Francisco parking meter system and the modernization of the City of Nashville on street parking system. We are currently working with San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) in the procurement, deployment, and conversion of approximately 26,000 IPS single space meters to Mackay Pay Stations. LAZ (formerly Serco) also worked side by side with SFMTA during the first deployment and installation of new meters in San Francisco back in 1999. In 2022, LAZ was awarded a long-term contract to upgrade and manage the City of Nashville On Street parking system. This includes modernizing the parking system to cutting edge multi -space pay stations, implementation of eCommerce solutions including contactless payments, parking branding, relaunching City's parking website and efficient parking enforcement using Genetec LPR system. As a prime contractor on dozens of municipal programs, we have spearheaded and project managed parking system upgrades including capital improvements of citywide parking systems nationwide. Outlined below are some of the tasks performed under these contracts. CONTRACT PROCUREMENT SUPPORT —Acted as the Procurement/Purchasing Agent on behalf of cities in the procurement of equipment, parking meters, materials, software, and related equipment and related ,^„ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO.23-47 i MARCH 29, 2023 Section A: Parkin 29 ORGANIZATION" g services to support both capital improvement and pilot projects for testing and evaluating various parking meters, parking payment systems, and other traffic regulation and control devices.

LAZ confirms that for meter operations it will retain its data regarding daily revenue deposit and reconciliation records, meter condition reports, and meter maintenance reports. For parking enforcement, we will retain data regarding citizen complaints using location specific logs. It is our understanding that the citation data, LPR plate reads, and meter and mobile payment data is outside our purview and the data retention will reside with the City's other service providers such as Turbo Data, Tannery Creek, ParkMobile and T2 Systems.

In the following pages, we have outlined our proposed approach to addressing the City's enforcement needs and how our services will provide an efficient solution aligned to your goals. 1. Experience and qualifications in paid parking enforcement including but not limited to using LPR vehicles and handheld ticket writers. LAZ has delivered reliable Parking Enforcement and related services since 1988. Within its Government Services portfolio, LAZ issues close to 1.5 million citations annually at contracts across North America. Delivering parking enforcement services is complex and requires a systematic approach to ensure that the services provided are fair, consistent, reliable, and that performance indicators are designed to provide an impetus for continual improvement. Working collaboratively with cities and counties throughout North America, LAZ has been intrinsic in developing innovative parking enforcement solutions that integrate seamlessly with the wider parking and transportation networks. LAZ is in the unique position of having managed some of the most complex turnkey parking systems. Through its delivery of parking enforcement services, LAZ currently manages parking enforcement programs for cities of West Hollywood, Inglewood, Manhattan Beach, Santa Ana, San Mateo, San Leandro, San Marco, Palo Alto, Salinas, CA; in addition to Chicago, IL and Montgomery County, MD. Our experience in enforcement, parking, and traffic management contracting is extensive. We bring hands-on knowledge of parking enforcement and good working relationships with many leading parking technology vendors and systems. Our knowledge of these systems, combined with our in-house, industry -leading subject matter expertise, enables us to deliver efficient enforcement services to municipal governments. With dozens of parking enforcement contracts under our belt, we have the proven ability to manage the magnitude of services outlined in this RFP. Our knowledge and experience managing similar programs within California gives us a distinct advantage over our competition. We have hands-on experience enforcing all Municipal Codes and California Vehicle Codes, and we are well -versed in towing procedures, scofflaw enforcement, handling customer inquiries via phone and in person, and traffic -control services for special events throughout the year. In an industry where most service providers limit themselves to being a contractor, we have proven ourselves as a solution -provider working as part Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services �� ACCREDITED CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CAI RFP NO. 23-471 MARCH 29, 2023 Section B: Parking PARKINo ��. of our customer's team. Our partnership goes beyond the daily activities of parking enforcement. We will work closely with the City of Newport Beach to identify efficient methods to enhance the overall parking program; and when appropriate, we will make necessary recommendations for the implementation of new technology including GPS enabled officer tracking, data and predictive analytics, performance -tracking mechanisms, reporting tools, and operational dashboards powered by our proprietary LAZ Business Intelligence (BI) platform. We are also experts in the implementation and use of various parking enforcement technologies. We are familiar with all industry leading citation issuance handhelds and software and advanced ALPR systems. Our experience and expertise in the techniques and technologies used in parking enforcement are unmatched. LAZ has been leading the industry in the use of LPR technology and in the use of electronic handhelds since the early 2000s. Although we remain agnostic as it relates to the technology brand, we utilize industry leading LPR technology at most of our enforcement programs. With advanced knowledge of all major LPR brands like Gentec AutoVu, Vigilant, Elsaag, OmniQ, we are well equipped to launch a technology refresh effort for City of Newport Beach with new LPR system for each enforcement vehicle in addition to an innovative approach to deploy handheld LPR on smart phones for bike and foot patrol. As highlighted later in the section, we are also highly experienced in the use of electronic handheld ticket writers and related equipment. We have hands on knowledge of the Turbo Data TicketPro system that is currently in use in Newport Beach as we use this technology at our other contracts throughout California including Manhattan Beach, San Marcos and San Mateo. Mobile LPR Technology Experience Over the past 15 years, LAZ Parking has been phasing in our utilization of license plate recognition (LPR) hardware and software for parking enforcement and curb lane management. The benefits of LPR are many, but our primary goal with its implementation is to continue our evolution in eliminating the need for parking permits and allow parking privileges to be handled only through the registration of license plates, therefore, speeding up parking enforcement activity along with capturing valuable occupancy data to help us in making data driven decisions. Since the successful deployment of the first generation Genetec AutoVu system in 2005 in West Hollywood, CA, our team has become experts in the implementation and use of LPR technology across the United States. Although we have remained agnostic in the selection and use of all major LPR systems, our team is particularly well versed in the use of Genetec AutoVu system. Some of the benefits that LAZ Parking offers our clients include: • Established relationship with Genetec and all authorized Genetec partners • Dedicated On -Street Subject Matter Experts with hand -on experience with LPR technology • We offer greater flexibility by leveraging our industry -leading partner ecosystem • Enhanced enforcement efficiency through automated list download and update • Improved ease of use with seamless behind the scenes data consolidation • Features we have implemented include Pay -by -Plate and PlateLink solutions Below is a list of some of our client references where LPR technology is in full use within a Pay -by -Plate system. „ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services "PARKING �Z CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO. 23-471 MARCH 29, 2023 Section B: Parking g 33 °n City of West Hollywood, CA Genetec AutoVu 2005 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ City of Inglewood, CA Genetec AutoVu 2020 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ City of Chicago, IL Genetec AutoVu 2007 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Montgomery County, MD Vigilant 2009 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ City of San Mateo HTS / OmniQ 2019 ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ ✓ Maximizing Use of LPR - Data Occupancy In addition to ensuring parking compliance, LAZ Parking has utilized LPR technology to gain insight into the curb management and on -street programs' overall performance. Our LPR data collection process can assess parking occupancy and turnover down to the block face level. Rather than investing in dedicated data collection methods that are expensive and under representative, we utilize the information that is already available to you. We can convert existing LPR data and create exportable dashboards that will reflect up-to-date parking conditions for the target area. We can also provide visualizations of parking occupancy and turnover so you can remain smart and adaptive for important policy decisions. The tool can also monitor parking enforcement efficiency and optimize enforcement resources by identifying locations that would benefit from additional oversight. Mobile LPR provides flexibility to expand analysis outside of paid parking areas in cases of paid parking expansion or in collaboration with other projects on time -limited or permitted blocks. Space inventory is a critical component of the project setup to determine parking occupancy rates. LAZ Parking will utilize existing inventory information for metered blocks in CSV format. • Custom data collection routes and route management • LPR unit evaluation and calibration • Data collection sweep analysis by day and time • Average occupancy rate by block, by day of the week, and by time of day • Average length of stay • Custom data fields 1^ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services PARKING LZ CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO.23-47 1 MARCH 29, 2023 Section B: Parkin 34 ORGANIZATION- g • Table and graphical data representations • Data management - API data feeds — we will coordinate with City to receive daily data uploads • Reporting and Dashboard • Monitor parking enforcement efficiency Our expertise is not only in enforcement but also other related services that complement parking enforcement operations. For example, in the City of Inglewood, in addition to providing parking enforcement services, we are also responsible for traffic dispatch service (working side by side with police dispatch) and traffic control services including street traffic control for all special events at the Sofi Stadium and the Forum event center. LAZ's experience, working hand -in -hand with local municipalities to build strong public/private partnerships, produces results that save money while enhancing the services we provide. With decades of positive experience in parking enforcement and related services, LAZ has managed some of the most complex parking programs in some of the most demanding operating environments. Our Government Services Division offers our customers turnkey parking enforcement solutions that are designed to provide fair and consistent enforcement to improve the quality of life in the communities we serve and reliable and cost-effective service -led program management. 2. A list of proposed enforcement equipment including but not limited to, vehicles and bicycles LAZ will furnish the required fleet of vehicles and bear all expenses such as vehicle financing, storage, maintenance, repair, and insurance.

This type of tracking system provides periodic updates on vehicle movement, driving behavior, and idle times. It will send email and cell phone alerts to management for an infraction of a set rule. The ability to monitor movement and driving patterns of enforcement officers allows management to address issues promptly, create efficiencies, and improve officer productivity. Not only does the system provide a live feed of vehicle activity, but also records are archived in case of complaints (e.g., for driving over the speed limit or skipping violating vehicles). The record can be traced back to the driving officer's activity for that day and time. SAFETY LIGHTS N All vehicles will be mounted with alternating quad flash strobe magnetic mount in amber. These lights will be used when staff is patrolling to warn other vehicles about their vehicle's slower movement. VEHICLE MARKING All vehicles will have markings clearly identifying all LAZ Parking vehicles. They will be branded with the City of Newport Beach logo and marked accordingly as a vehicle that makes frequent stops. In addition, each vehicle will be uniquely identified with a vehicle number (e.g., NB 01). BICYCLES Bicycle patrol has always been an effective way of patrolling congested streets and beach lots. With new technology, bike patrols will be even more efficient and cover more area with electric bikes. As part of our offering, LAZ will purchase six (6) Montague Paratrooper Pro Bikes. Using these bicycles will enable our bike officers to patrol in more congested areas. We will work with a local Newport Beach based bike shop to procure these bikes and are looking forward to partnership with them for maintenance and overall bike support. We are also in the process of evaluating the technology available for license plate readers on bikes and will provide the City with recommendations for future deployment of LPR on bikes.

However, a successful parking enforcement program should not be defined solely by the volume of citations issued or revenue generated through parking violations. At LAZ Parking, we take a comprehensive approach, utilizing our national experience and best industry practices to create a culture of compliance. The goal of improved payment compliance and adherence to time restrictions is to generate turnover of the highest demanded parking spaces within the central business district. The following section highlights the components of our approach. ^ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services ."PARKING LM CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA I RFP NO.23-47 i MARCH 29, 2023 Section B: Parkin 37 RORGANIZATIOW g CUSTOMER -CENTRIC APPROACH TO PARKING ENFORCEMENT LAZ's commitment is to provide a customer -centric approach to parking enforcement. Unlike traditional parking enforcement programs, our approach focuses on public education as well as business and community outreach, fostering increased compliance without alienating us from the community. We will provide a team of parking enforcement ambassadors that will not only be trained on the fundamentals of customer service. We will also provide a uniformed and highly visible presence for aiding citizens and visitors every day. Some typical examples of our enforcement services include: • Providing brochures, directions or a map to someone looking for a particular place of interest (e.g., Restaurant, Administration, Library, etc.) • Aiding customers with changing flat tires or jump starting a dead battery • Calling for Police assistance or reporting suspicious activity • Providing a friendly explanation of why a vehicle received a ticket • Explaining the appeals process to a citizen or visitor that received a ticket • Visiting merchants to discuss any problems or concerns in a proactive and professional manner • Actively participating in merchant association and civic meetings Another part of our customer -centric approach will be providing an administrative review process to address citations that may be unwarranted. This administrative review will allow us to correct matters associated with inadequate signage, malfunctioning meters, handicap parking and similar violations that should not burden the courts. FOCUS ON PERSONABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS PARAMOUNT Our parking enforcement teams proudly represent cities across the country using each citizen or stakeholder interaction as an opportunity to establish positive customer service. For citizens, we take an ambassador approach as a reflection of the city we are representing by being personable, compassionate, and helpful. For our stakeholders (City Departments, Code Compliance, Facilities, Special Events, City Council, other strategic City vendors, etc.) we use a local Program Manager model that can respond immediately in person to any questions or issues that arise. We have spent years honing relationships with a variety of stakeholders so we can approach the City's parking issues lock step as a comprehensive Team. We welcome the ability to assist the cities we serve in responding to citizen inquiries or concerns. As a strategic partner to each city we serve, we act as an extension of high -quality City services; therefore, focus on customer service is the greatest strength in our service delivery approach. STRINGENT STAFF SELECTION & TRAINING IS A PRIORITY The essence of a strong enforcement program is dedicated, well -trained, properly selected staff that are paid competitive wages. We employ multiple methods to carefully select the most qualified enforcement personnel, nACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services PARKING �Z CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CAI RFP NO.23-47 1 MARCH 29, Section 2023 Sion B: Parking g �� train and educate our workforce, and provide them with tools needed to succeed. Our proven approach to training involves classroom, practical on -street, mentoring, and refresher training. TARGETED POLICIES TO ENSURE FAIR & CONSISTENT ENFORCEMENT LAZ Parking has integrated policies and procedures that are tested and reviewed rigorously to ensure fair and consistent enforcement, ticket accuracy, and quality customer service. With the cooperative efforts of the cities we represent, we have gone beyond this level to identify additional methods focusing on ticket accuracy to minimize any room for error in ticket issuance that becomes an inconvenience for citizen(s). Working closely with City management across the U.S., this proactive approach has led to greater awareness and ability to address concerns that could negatively impact the overall parking experience. Quality Assurance & Control LAZ's quality approach is a structured and documented management system that provides the framework for planning, implementing, documenting, and assessing data, as well as for carrying out Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC) activities. QA is a system for confirming the reliability of measurement data through use of reviews, inspections, and testing, whereas QC involves the accuracy of measurement data. LAZ Parking uses this process to provide control and monitoring over our parking enforcement and project management activities. Conducting periodic quality checks through sampling of all issued citations allows LAZ Parking to be proactive about identifying mistakes and correcting officer behavior. Multiple techniques are utilized to ensure citation accuracy and to identify inconsistency in overall program performance. One example of an analysis done by LAZ Parking, at the request of a comparable City, determined the amount of time between meter expiration and when a citation is issued, as shown in chart here. This information helped the City determine a grace period to program into the meters. For example, analyzing citation data to determine if incorrect addresses are used on citations. During a recent analysis, by creating a map and color -coding citations by street, a different color indicated an incorrect street location, as shown below. Using this method, we confirmed that most citations are issued correctly.

In many cases, we utilize City provided incident reporting apps such as Accela and QAlert for incident reporting and tracking.

DYNAMIC ROUTING Routine patrols are predictable. LAZ Parking will provide dynamic routing procedures based on multiple inputs that are designed to maximize efficiency and effectiveness of enforcement officers. Several factors include: • DIGITAL MAPPING: As part of LAZ's commitment, we will complete a full audit of the current street conditions, including signage, parking meters, time zones, no parking zones, loading zones, streetcar risks, ADA parking, etc. All these factors will be contained in a digital map that will guide LAZ's initial enforcement efforts. • OCCUPANCY AND COMPLIANCE REPORTING: Our enforcement effort will include recording and reporting on key data sets, such as on -street occupancy and payment compliance by block. • DATA/PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS: Using information from the parking meters, enforcement systems, and occupancy and compliance reports, we -ACCREDITED Parking Management & Parking Enforcement Services 0PARKING �Z CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH, CA RFP N0. 23 47 MARCH 29, 2023 Section B: Parkin 40 «ORGANIZATION'" I I g will be able to continuously refine and refocus our parking enforcement efforts. • HEAT MAPPING AND OFFICER TRACKING: Our systems include state-of-the-art reporting and monitoring of all officer activities. PERSONNEL DUTIES We understand that our employees will have considerable interaction with the public. In most cases, these motorists will be under the impression these employees are City employees. As such, the LAZ Parking team recognizes the City is entrusting them with its reputation, and we take this responsibility very seriously. Our goal will be to ensure that all personnel serve as ambassadors of the City. This goal will be accomplished by hiring good people, training them well, treating them with respect, and providing them with the training and the tools they need to do a good job. In turn, the expectation is they will, without fail, conduct themselves in a professional manner and treat the City's citizens politely and in a helpful manner. It is understood that despite our best efforts, complaints may arise. Motorists have the legal right to report unprofessional or illegal behavior by LAZ Parking staff. Staff members are trained and expected to respond in a professional and courteous manner during complaints. In the event a motorist is not satisfied with the actions of behavior of a staff member, the LAZ Parking employee will provide the motorist with his/her last name, badge number, and the name and telephone number of the office upon request. Each officer complaint will be handled by the Project Manager. Management will speak with the complainant and document the encounter. Then, the officer will have the opportunity to respond to the complaint. Based on the information at hand, including any data reports that would add more information, if the officer was not found to have done anything wrong, then the investigation will be closed. However, if there was fault found with the officer, appropriate action and counseling will take place, including disciplinary action if a policy or procedure was not followed. The results of the investigation, whether the officer was found to be at fault, will be filed into the officer's personnel file.

Comprehensive enforcement training program for transition period and for new hires during contract period LAZ Parking is aware of the impact initial and ongoing training has on the performance of our enforcement officers.

We will provide extensive in-house training with a formal induction program for new employees, continuing on-the-job training. As needed, we will also provide re-training and/or follow-up training required to correct deficiencies in performance. LAZ Parking will also provide staff with at least eight (8) hours of annual refresher courses focusing on customer service and conflict resolution. New hires go through a combination of classroom and field training, including ride -along training with supervisors. New hire training typically lasts 1-2 weeks, following the curriculum shown in the table below. • Company new hire orientation (4HRS) • Officer expectations and standards • Customer Service (Office Clerks — Additional 4HR Training) • Focus on City of Newport Beach (P.0.1., Streets, Main Areas) • Review of Municipal Codes and C.V.C. and violations overview • Equipment Training (Citation Issuance Device, Vehicle and LPR) • Reporting and Incident Training • Conflict Resolution Training • Field training with Supervisor or Lead Parking Compliance Officer • Must demonstrate competence in identifying violations and correctly issuing citations. • Must demonstrate competence in the citation issuance procedure. • Must demonstrate competence in the license plate reader system.

Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City. F. Self -insured Retentions. Any self -insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self -insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self- insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless approved by City. G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Consultant's right to proceed until proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall, at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Consultant or reimbursed by Consultant upon demand. H. Timely Notice of Claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant's performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Work.
