Council Member Rich suggested that staff might contact Burke and Herbert to see if a cooperative agreement with respect to parking could be worked out.

The City Manager stated that from the time Fairlington Center opened there was a parking problem. The City Manager stated that staff needs to talk with the ownership interests for the Fairlington Centre with regard to a more rational allocation of their spaces. This is not a City street and it is not something that the City can mandate, but staff could try to persuade them to do that. If the tenants really support this, whether they are a condo owner tenant or a tenant who is renting from another condo owner or from the management company, we need to address where the employees park during the day. Staff could address reallocation of the spaces, address the need for time limits on the private street parking spaces, and it might vary; also to try to pursue with the Burke and Herbert Bank an understanding with the City that they would allow those spaces to be used but if there is a problem or their needs change or they have another option for the usage of the land, obviously the City is not going to bind them without any way to get out in a very reasonable period of time. The City Manager stated that she would be willing to have staff work with the people in the area to see how many parking spaces we can identify, particularly at night and on the weekends, with the understanding that we are not going to preclude the commercial interests if they have options in the future from being able to exercise them because of some contract that they have entered into with us.
Mayor Ticer requested staff, if such a meeting is set up, to notify all of the signatories on the petition and make sure that every business owner knows about it so that he/she could have input.
City Manager Lawson stated that staff certainly would and that it would not be just those who signed the petition but all of the contiguous business owners because they may also hold a little piece of the solution to this.)
WHEREUPON, upon motion by Vice Mayor Donley, seconded by Council Member Walker and carried unanimously, City Council approved the recommendation of the Planning Commission, as amended, and approved the request, subject to compliance with all applicable codes, ordinances and staff recommendations and to amend Condition #2 and add Conditions #18, #19, amended Condition #20 to read: "20. Condition added by Planning Commission and amended by City Council: The applicant must provide free valet parking implemented to the satisfaction of the Transportation and Environmental Services staff and the Planning and Zoning staff for not fewer than 25 cars from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and during special events, such as, the NCAA Final Four, the Super Bowl, the New Year's Eve Party, St. Patrick's Day, St. Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day."; added a new Condition #21 to read: "21.
