DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND The Assistance League of Orange and First United Methodist Church are requesting issuance of "NO FEE" parking permits to accommodate their charitable medical and community activities. This request is reviewed annually by the City Council. These are non - profit organizations and contribute significantly to the community (as described in their attached letters of request). None of the organizations have their own on -site parking and their charitable medical and community activities require most of their discretionary funds. For those reasons, the City Council has, in prior years, found substantial community benefits and has traditionally waived the fees for the "Permit Parking" passes for these organizations. The Assistance League receives ten passes per year. The First United Methodist Church has requested two passes. The City's Police Department is responsible for administering these permits. The twelve parking stalls that would be used by the Assistance League and the First United Methodist Church are located in the City's South Orange Street Municipal Parking Lot No. 2. The cost of parking permits for the Municipal Parking Lots is $30 a month. Waiver of the permit costs for twelve permits will result in a loss of $4,320 annually. It should be noted that the fees generated by the permits go to the Old Towne Parking Facility account that provides for municipal parking lot maintenance. It is staff's recommendation that the City Council approve issuance of the "NO FEE" permits. This approval should be subject to annual review. 8.
