Title
DISTRICT ATTORNEY - REQUEST APPROVAL OF A SINGLE SOURCE CONTRACT FOR SECURE COVERED PARKING FOR COUNTY VEHICLES (DISTRICTS: ALL)
Body
OVERVIEW
Downtown San Diego continues to be an area filled with high-rise offices, residences and retail businesses, along with amenities attractive to many visitors. As a result, there is a scarcity of affordable covered and secure parking facilities for County-owned vehicles and safety equipment within proximity to the Hall of Justice.

ACE Parking Inc. is the only service provider that can continue to accommodate the estimated 200 parking spaces required. Pursuant to Board Policy A-87, Competitive Procurement, procurement of secure parking spaces from ACE Parking Inc. qualifies for single source since the unique service is not available from other sources.
This is a request to authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting to enter into a one-year contract with four (4) option years, beginning on July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2030, with ACE Parking Inc. to continue providing an estimated 200 covered and secure parking spaces at the Columbia Street parking garage on behalf of the District Attorney's Office. The current contract expires June 30, 2025.
