Fly for one week in June. Flag pole does not lend itself to this – instead hang flag on side of building as a banner. Message of inclusivity. What about other groups that want to fly their flags? Who should decide: M&C, Mayor, committee of residents, policy? City Clerk to survey other municipalities for policies. Stullich to agenda – first full week in June, under City Hall sign. College Park City Council Worksession Minutes May 17, 2016 Page 2 3 Presentation on the Towne Place Suites development – Matt Tedesco and Dan Hampton: Preliminary Plan was filed in 2006-2007. Financing is tight. They want to reduce the number of king rooms and add double queen rooms which will change footprint 4 feet on south elevation to help secure financing. Proposed change requires a limited minor amendment from Park and Planning staff. It will be referred to the City but not go to Planning Board. Erosion and sediment measures are in place. 13-month construction. Project goes through from US 1 to Autoville Drive – site is long and narrow and slopes back. 2 story garage under building and 20 spaces at grade. 4 ½ - 5 stories on US 1. Stullich to agenda. 4 Purchase of IT server refresh (will require a super majority) – Sarah Price, IT Manager and Bill Gardiner, Assistant City Manager: Currently have a number of individual servers and need new servers for new services. They want to virtualize the servers which means buy a minimal number of servers that contain different servers within them. This will make disaster recovery faster, will reduce carbon footprint and electrical usage. This does not include the AS400. Two at City Hall and one at Public Works. We have used this vendor before, received two other bids, this is the low bidder. What about the power outage we had? We need to resolve that – either add fiber at Public Works or install a generator at City Hall. Consent. 5 Discussion about the possibility of creating a Martin Luther King, Jr. Tribute Committee Tribute began as a grass roots effort in Lakeland 25 years ago and has grown steadily. Now desire to create a standing City committee to continue the tradition. Acknowledge involvement of schools (essays and artwork) to teach children about Dr. King’s legacy. Return June 7 W/S with a resolution. 6 Discussion of allowing free parking during summer weeknights Estimated loss of $18,000. To help restaurants and other downtown businesses that suffer in the summer when students are gone. What about College Park Shopping Center? That is a private lot. Explore tie-in with DCPMA and Shop College Park for coupons? Consent. 7 Discussion of Worksession seating arrangements Try a horseshoe shape open to the audience. ADDED ITEM: Support for Four Cities Letter on the FBI relocation to Greenbelt Station: Discussed at last Four Cities meeting in response to information that GSA is not using proximity to Metro as a factor. Greenbelt has already sent a letter. Most recent draft handed out. Add Glaros and Lehman to cc list. Consent.

City Clerk’s Office: 240-487-3501 2 2 1 Possible budget changes 3 CITY OF COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND WORKSESSION AGENDA ITEM Prepared By: Stephen Groh, Meeting Date: May 17, 2016 Director of Finance Presented By: Leo L. Thomas, Jr., Proposed Consent Agenda: No Deputy Director of Finance Originating Department: Finance Issue Before Council: Review of the budget Ordinance following the May 10 public hearing and prior to adoption on May 24 Strategic Plan Goal: Excellent Services Background/Justification: For many years, we have scheduled a worksession discussion of the budget Ordinance the week prior to adoption to determine if Council wants staff to write up any proposed amendments that may be introduced the night of adoption. Having these proposed amendments written up in advance does not presuppose that the amendments will be introduced or that other amendments could not be introduced. It simplifies the process for Finance (to avoid having to make calculations “on the fly”) and makes it easier for the City Clerk in preparing the minutes. Fiscal Impact: To be determined Council Options: #1: Council can propose budget amendments and staff will prepare a Proposed Amendment Motion for each. #2: Council can ask questions of Finance staff regarding the budget. #3: Council can accept the budget ordinance as drafted. Staff Recommendation: If amendments are made that would cause the budget to be unbalanced, Finance staff recommend that the shortfall be deducted from the City Hall C.I.P. project transfer rather than by use of unassigned reserve. Recommended Motion: None Attachments: Budget Ordinance 16-O-02 4 ORDINANCE 16-0-02 AN ORDINANCE OF THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND TO ADOPT THE FISCAL YEAR 2017 OPERATING AND CAPITAL BUDGET OF THE CITY OF COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND BE IT ORDAINED, by the Mayor and Council of the City of College Park, Maryland, that the following sums and amounts are hereby appropriated for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2016 and ending June 30, 2017, the said revenues being used to defray expenses and operations of the City of College Park, Maryland in accordance with the following schedule: General Fund Revenues Taxes Real Property Taxes $ 7,658,722 Personal Property Taxes 952 ,500 Income Taxes 1,660,000 Other Local Taxes 680 ,000 State Shared Taxes 447,781 County Shared Taxes 650 ,000 Licenses & Permits Business Licenses 43,000 Other Licenses & Permits 907,653 Utility Franchise Fees 315,000 Intergovernmental Federal Grants 40,000 State Grants 257,055 County Grants 44,717 Charges for Services General Government Charges 5,200 Highways & Streets 594,900 Sanitation & Waste Removal 394,474 Health Charges 12,000 Fines & Fees Fines 2,770,400 Miscellaneous Revenues Investment Earnings 132,520 Property & Equipment Rental 100,500 Other Revenues 1 370 Total Operating Revenues $ 17,667,792 Non-Revenue Receipts lnterfund Transfer from Parking Debt Service Fund 211 ,687 Use of Unassigned Reserve 0 5 Total Revenues $ 17.879.479 Expenditures General Government $ 3,213,414 Public Services 4,295,936 Planning, Community & Economic Development 695,738 Youth , Family & Senior Services 1,172,995 Public Works 5,480,749 Contingency 10,000 Debt Service 525,207 lnterfund Transfer to Capital Projects Fund 2,485,440 Total Expenditures $ 17.879.479 Parking Debt Service Fund Revenues Highways & Streets Parking Meter Revenue $ 220,000 Fines Parking Fines Revenue 50 500 Total Revenues $ 270,500 Expenditures lnterfund Transfer to General Fund $ 211,687 Total Expenditures $ 211,687 BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that: 1.

Software is used to divide one server into multiple “virtual” servers. The City will avoid purchasing single servers each time we increase IT resources to improve services, and will reduce the City’s carbon footprint. IT has been tasked with providing additional processes and now is the best time to stop purchasing single servers and move to virtual servers. The City has used the recommended vendor for numerous equipment purchases over the past few years, and has been very satisfied with the product support. The firm is based in Kentucky but its Reston, VA office supports College Park. The warranties for the equipment are from Lenovo and VMware. The vendor will install and implement the equipment ($5,600). Payment occurs after the City has received the products. Three years of product support for VMware is $2,946, and a summary of that support is attached. Fiscal Impact: The City received three quotes for purchasing the new virtual servers, and the lowest and recommended quote is $77,560.90 (the other bids were $78,429 and $91,338). The vendor’s price is based on a “pre-negotiated technology contract” with Kentucky that includes discounts for hardware, software, and maintenance. However, the contract does not meet the City standard for a competitively bid process. Therefore, a super- majority vote of the Council is required to authorize the purchase. The City can use the I-NET funds provided via the cable franchise agreements to purchase the servers. The funds are already budgeted in the following accounts: CIP 301-8010-570.98-10 COMPUTER HARDWARE 011004 INSTITUTIONAL NETWORK/PEG Council Options: # 1: Authorize the purchase of server, VMware, and Lenovo storage equipment from DMD Data Systems, as outlined in the attached quote for $77,560.90. #2: Request additional information from staff and bring back the item at a future Worksession. #3: Reject the purchase of virtual servers at this time. 13 Staff Recommendation: Option 1. Recommended Motion: I move to authorize City staff to purchase the server, VMware, and Lenovo storage equipment as detailed in the quote from DMD Data Systems for $77,560.90.

The terms of Part 2 replace or modify those of Part 1. Part 3 (also called, “Warranty Information”) includes product-specific information which ships with the Machine. For purposes of this Statement of Limited Warranty, “Lenovo” means the Lenovo entity that provided your Machine to you or to your reseller. The warranties provided by Lenovo in this Statement of Limited Warranty apply to Machine(s) listed in Part 3 Warranty Information, when you purchase such Machine(s) for your use, and not for resale. The term “Machine” means a hardware product identified by a Machine Type as well as its features, conversions or upgrades. The term “Machine” does not include any software programs, whether pre-loaded with the Machine, installed subsequently, or otherwise. NOTHING IN THIS STATEMENT OF LIMITED WARRANTY AFFECTS ANY STATUTORY RIGHTS OF CONSUMERS THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED OR LIMITED BY CONTRACT. This Statement of Limited Warranty is available, in multiple languages, at the following Lenovo Internet website: http://www.lenovo.com/warranty/. What this Warranty Covers Lenovo warrants that each Machine is free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use during the warranty period. During the warranty period, Lenovo provides repair and exchange service for the Machine under the type of warranty service Lenovo designates for the Machine. The warranty period for the Machine is a fixed period of time unless specified otherwise in the “Warranty Information” that ships with the Machine (for example, for certain Machines, the warranty will be void if the Machine’s usage limitations are exceeded during the specified warranty period). The warranty period, type of warranty service, and service level that apply to your Machine are designated in the “Warranty Information” that ships with the Machine. Lenovo may require you to provide proof of purchase (for example, a copy of your sales receipt or purchase invoice) to validate warranty entitlement. If a Machine that Lenovo is responsible to install is not made available for Lenovo to install within six months from the date Lenovo ships the Machine to you or the reseller, installation will be subject to a charge under a Services agreement with Lenovo. For a Machine that Lenovo is responsible to install, if you elect to install or service the Machine yourself, or if you relocate the Machine or have a third party install, service or relocate the Machine, Lenovo reserves the right to inspect the Machine before providing warranty Service on the Machine. Lenovo may, at its sole discretion, charge for the inspection. If the Machine is not in an acceptable condition for warranty Service, as solely determined by Lenovo, you may request that Lenovo restore it to an acceptable condition for Service or you may withdraw your request for warranty Service. Lenovo, at its sole discretion, will determine if restoration is possible. Restoration is provided as a billable Service. If specified, additional charges, such as transportation or special handling, may apply. Many features, conversions, or upgrades involve the removal of parts and their return to Lenovo. A Lenovo part or feature installed during the initial installation of a Lenovo Machine is subject to the Machine’s warranty period effective on the Date of Installation (also called, “Warranty Start Date”) of the Machine. A Lenovo part or feature which replaces a previously installed part or feature assumes the remainder of the warranty period for the replaced part or feature. A Lenovo part or feature added to a Machine without replacing a previously installed part or feature is subject to the specified warranty period for the applicable part or feature effective on its Date of Installation (also called, “Warranty Start Date). Unless Lenovo specifies otherwise, the warranty period, type of warranty service, and service level of such part or feature is the same as the Machine on which it is installed. Unless Lenovo specifies otherwise, these warranties apply only in the country or region in which you purchased the Machine. THESE WARRANTIES ARE YOUR EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES AND REPLACE ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTY OF TITLE OR NON-INFRINGMENT. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, SUCH WARRANTIES ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD. NO WARRANTIES 20 APPLY AFTER THAT PERIOD. SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. What this Warranty Does not Cover This warranty does not cover the following: a. failure or damage resulting from misuse (including, but not limited to, use of any Machine capacity or capability, other than that authorized by Lenovo in writing), accident, modification, unsuitable physical or operating environment, operation in other than the specified operating environment or improper maintenance by you or a third party; b. failure due to events beyond Lenovo’s control; c. failure caused by a product for which Lenovo is not responsible; d. any non-Lenovo products, including those provided with, or installed on, a Lenovo Machine at your request; e. accessories, supply items and consumables, and structural parts (for example, frames and covers). Unless specified otherwise, batteries are considered a consumable item and are not warranted. If warranted, Lenovo will specify the warranty in the product announcement and service documentation which ships with the Machine; f. service of Machine alterations; g. service of a Machine on which you are using capacity or capability, other than that authorized by Lenovo in writing; and h. certification in your country for the Machine’s connection by any means to interfaces of public telecommunications networks unless Lenovo specifies otherwise in the product announcement and service documentation that ships with the Machine. Further certification may be required by law prior to making any such connection. The warranty is voided by removal or alteration of identification labels on the Machine or its parts. Lenovo does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of a Machine. Any technical or other support provided for a Machine under warranty, such as assistance with “how-to” questions and those regarding Machine set-up and installation, is provided WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. How to Obtain Warranty Service If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period, refer to the service documentation that shipped with your Machine for support assistance and problem determination procedures. A copy of the service documentation for your Machine can also be found at the following Lenovo website: http://support.lenovo.com/. If you are unable to resolve your problem with the service documentation, contact Lenovo or the reseller to obtain warranty service. Contact information for Lenovo is provided in the “Warranty Information” that ships with your Machine. If you do not register the Machine with Lenovo, you may be required to present proof of purchase as evidence of your entitlement to warranty service. What Lenovo Will Do to Correct Problems Lenovo will attempt to diagnose and resolve your problem over the telephone or electronically by access to a Lenovo Internet website. Certain Machines contain remote support capabilities for direct problem reporting, remote problem determination, and resolution with Lenovo. When you contact Lenovo for service, you must follow the problem determination and resolution procedures that Lenovo specifies. Following problem determination, if Lenovo determines on-site service is required, a service technician will be scheduled for service at your location. Certain Machines (and upgrades, as applicable) may contain Machine Code and may also contain Separately Licensed Code (SLC). The following Lenovo website identifies whether an acquired Machine (or upgrade, as applicable) contains Machine Code and/or SLC: http://support.lenovo.com/. Unless specified otherwise, you are responsible for downloading or obtaining from Lenovo, and installing designated Machine Code (microcode, basic input/output system code (called “BIOS”), utility programs, device drivers, and diagnostics delivered with a Lenovo Machine) and other software updates in a timely manner from a Lenovo Internet website or from other electronic media, and following the instructions that Lenovo provides. You may request Lenovo to install Machine Code changes, however, you may be charged for that service. Some parts of Lenovo Machines are designated as Customer Replaceable Units (“CRUs”). If your problem can be resolved with a CRU (e.g. keyboard, memory, hard disk drive) Lenovo will ship the CRU to you for you to install. If the Machine does not function as warranted during the warranty period and your problem cannot be resolved over the telephone or electronically, through your application of Machine Code or software updates, or with a CRU, Lenovo or its subcontractor or a reseller that has been approved by Lenovo to provide warranty service, will either, at its discretion: 1) repair it to make it function as warranted; or 2) replace it with one that is at least functionally equivalent. If Lenovo or its subcontractor or the reseller is unable to do either, you may return the Machine to your place of purchase and your money will be refunded. 21 5 Martin Luther King, Jr. Tribute Committee 22 CITY OF COLLEGE PARK, MARYLAND WORKSESSION AGENDA ITEM Prepared By: Bill Gardiner Meeting Date: May 17, 2016 Assistant City Manager Presented By: Scott Somers, City Manager Proposed Consent Agenda: No Originating Department: Administration Issue Before Council: Discussion about the possibility of creating a Martin Luther King, Jr. Tribute Committee Strategic Plan Goal: Goal 1: One College Park Goal 6 : Excellent Services Background/Justification: In 1991 the Lakeland Civic Association organized a tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and in 1992 a group of Baha’is joined the Lakeland Civic Association to help plan the annual event. The City of College Park and the University of Maryland have provided support since 1999. In 2001, the organizing committee created the “Unity in the Community Award” to honor a community member who has demonstrated service toward some of the ideals espoused by Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr. The annual event attracts hundreds of participants and requires a lot of volunteer and staff time to organize. Some of the original organizers are not as able to assist as in years past. There has been discussion to create an official City committee comprised of residents to assist staff continue the event at the high level of quality and participation that it currently enjoys. Fiscal Impact: Creating a City Committee could incur small additional expenses to provide meeting minutes, but otherwise the expenses should be similar to current expenses.

Ryan, Public Services Director and Jim Miller, Parking Enforcement Manager Presented By: R.W. Ryan, Public Services Director Originating Department: Public Services Issue Before Council: Discuss and consider whether to allow free parking in the municipal garage and / or City Hall parking lot during summer weekdays. Strategic Plan Goal: Goal # 3 – High Quality Development and Reinvestment Background/Justification: The following information shows the estimated revenue loss for both the Municipal Garage and the City Hall Lot, both individually and combined, as well as the combined revenue loss that would be incurred from violators during the same period. These estimates are based upon the time period of 5:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m. during weekdays last summer. Free parking in other downtown lots (e.g. shopping center, Lehigh Road lot, and Applebee’s lot) would require permission of the property owners. The estimated parking meter revenue loss, based on 2015 history, if free parking was allowed downtown in the City Garage and on the City Hall Lot during weekday evenings between 5- 10 p.m. in the summer, would be as follows: Municipal Garage (approximately 288 spaces) - $9,135.10 ÷ 12 weeks (May 25 – August 14, 2015) = $761.26 per week average revenue loss. During summer evening hours, the garage is probably 75% vacant. City Hall Lot (approximately 38 spaces) - $3,150.20 ÷ 12 weeks (May 25 – August 14, 2015) = $262.52 per week average revenue loss. During summer evening hours, the City Hall is probably 40% vacant. Combined Total: $12,285.30 ÷ 12 weeks (May 25 – August 14, 2015) = $1,023.78 per week average revenue loss. Parking citations issued for ‘Overtime Parking’ violations for both the Municipal Garage and the City Hall Lot during weekdays after 5 p.m. last summer (May 25 – August 14, 2015) totaled 322 violations, which equated to $6,440.00. These estimated revenue losses do not include revenue losses already expected from free summer Saturday parking in the Municipal Garage. Fiscal Impact: Total estimated revenue loss for free summer weekday parking after 5 p.m. is estimated to be $18,725.00. Council Options: #1: Allow free summer parking on weekday evenings in the Municipal Garage and City Hall lots only, and forego $18,725.00 in parking fee and fine revenue. #2: Allow free summer parking on weekday evenings in the Municipal Garage only, and forgo approximately $13,900 in parking fee and fine revenue. #3 Do not provide free summer weekday evening parking in the Municipal Garage and the City Hall lot. 25 Staff Recommendation: #1 Recommended Motion: I move to direct staff to execute the necessary actions required to allow free summer weekday evening parking, after 5 p.m., in the municipal garage and the City Hall parking lot.
