Are comparable figures available on the number of carpools which occupy paid parking lots as opposed to those parking lots where fees are not levied? Are these questions irrelevant since the decision has been made that U.S. Government employees will be assessed parking fees? 4. Policy -Will different rates be estabj.ished in the OTS complex commensurate with the space assigned? Should a carpool or an employee be charged the same rate for a "Bullpen Space" at the rear of Central Building as compared to individuals who have clear access in and out of their space at all times, e.g., parking on the quadrangle or along the roadways in the complex? l4Ihat rates will be charged for the twenty spaces allotted to OTS in the parking to on 0 Street? These questions have been posed by Agency employees.. 5. Acquisition of Parking Facilities - How will the parking spaces at the rear of Central Building be assigned? 'Will spaces be assigned by lane?

Locations of Employees Domiciles - This presents a problem security-wise as several OTS employees are under cover. Who will conduct the analysis?

Special or unusual Requirements 7(1) How many visitor's spaces will be assigned? "(2) Do we charge people who are on extended leave or TDY? Do we charge people who are on annual, sick or military leave? (3) If we charge people who are on extended leave or TDY and carpool cannot recruit another member, how many complaints will we receive if a carpool is reduced to three members and the carpool cannot use the express lanes on Route 1-95 in Virginia? (4) If we charge people while they are on extended TDY or leave and they refuse to pay, what means are used for collection of delinquent fees? (5) How do we handle spaces for those employees who work flexi-hours considering we have limited "free access" spaces? Comment on last paragraph under paragraph 5. Will time and experience support this. rationale? If not, what happens if~periodic reductions are-not achieved but are increased? 6. Allocation and Assignment of Parking Facilities - Should our present procedure for assignment of parking spaces be reviewed? mould the present practice of alloting spaces in "blocks" to each OTS operating component be continued? Spaces for small cars on the South Patio at the rear of South Building are not numbered or separated by yellow lines. Presently individuals park on a first-come first-serve basis in an area which can accommodate twenty small cars. An assigned parking permit must be displayed on the dashboard or sun visor. Since the buildings in the OTS complex are being considered as historical sites, it will not be possible to alter the present patio with its slate bolcks or neither will we be allowed to paint yellow lines for parking spaces without the approval of the Regional Historical Preservation Liaison, Department of Interior. Who will determine the number of spaces we will be authorized? Is there any restriction on the square footage assigned to each parking space? 7. Charges for Employee Parking a. Establishment of.Charges - Should t,,e Agency have some ,input on the rates charged since the parking spaces in the OTS complex are not compatible?

What happens when an employee cannot park in his/her space and we have no space to assign them and the employee must use a commercial lot? Does the employee pay the U. S. Government for his/her assigned space for that day if a commercial lot has to be used? The last Thursday of the month presents a problem because the OTS complex over- flows with vehicles which arrive from other areas in the metropolitan area and =to attend the OTS end-of-the-month meeting with Senior Officials in OTS and all Branch and Division Chiefs in OTS.
