(a) The comptroller
may allocate to government agencies or servicing agencies a given number of
parking spaces or a specific quota of parking assignments to carry out the
agencies' program, provided the need for the spaces or quotas is justified to
the satisfaction of the comptroller.
(1)
After a government agency or servicing agency has been allocated certain number
of parking spaces or a specific quota of parking assignments, the appropriate
department head or servicing agency shall identify to the comptroller which
applicants shall be assigned parking spaces within the allocation or quota. The
Automotive Services Division Administrator will review the recommendations for
disposition. Specially marked parking spaces may be assigned to legislators,
judges, department heads, deputy department heads, and others.
(2) The departmental parking coordinator
shall maintain a priority waiting list and a regular waiting list for the
non-allocated spaces for each parking facility and shall make these lists
available to the comptroller on request.
(A)
Each list shall be maintained chronologically on the basis of the date that the
name of the employee is placed on the list.
(B) The priority waiting list may consist of
the names of applicants based on the following factors:
(i) Position in state government;
(ii) Government agency's operational
requirements;
(iii) Status as a
qualified disabled person;
(iv)
Need for a personal motor vehicle to carry out state business during the day;
or
(v) Other unique factors which
justify the assignment of a priority parking space.
(C) Parking assignments shall be made by the
departmental parking coordinator from the priority waiting list first and,
after exhaustion of the priority waiting list, from the regular waiting list.
Assignment from the regular waiting list shall be based upon the department's
policies or procedures for parking assignments.
(D) If an employee on the waiting list
transfers employment to a different department, the applicant's name on the
previous department's waiting list will be deleted and the applicant must
request to have the applicant's name placed on the new department's waiting
list.
(E) If an employee on a
departmental parking waiting list transfers employment to a different division
or office within the same department, the employee's status on any parking
waiting list of the department shall be determined in accordance with the
policies or procedures of that department for parking assignments.
(F) For a married couple, where each spouse
has been working within the State Capitol Complex for ten years or more, the
parking assignment may be transferred to the remaining spouse upon retirement
or termination of the employment of the original assignee, provided that the
remaining spouse continues state employment in the State Capitol
Complex.
(G) The comptroller may
conduct inspections and utilization surveys to promote and enforce efficient
utilization of parking in state facilities and may recapture for release or
reallocation any unjustified parking spaces or quotas.
