Subject: Recommendation Report for parking improvements at the Northeast Campus
Attached is the report for our study, “Research for Improving Parking Conditions at TCC’s Northeast Campus: A Recommendation Report.” We completed the tasks outlined in our proposal submitted October 23, 2015, which included researching the various modifications to the parking accommodations that could be made, how each modification would cost the school and students, whether or not students want change, and if change is even possible.
In order to carry out each task, we conducted primary and secondary research. Our secondary research included research from university websites in order to gain insight to how various colleges and universities operate their parking accommodations. Our primary research included distributing questionnaires to students at the Northeast campus in order to gain insight to how students as a whole feel about our current parking accommodations and whether change is desired. We also interviewed the supervisor of the police department at the Northeast campus, Lieutenant Terry Moak in order to understand the administrative side of parking.
We found that changing the parking system at the Northeast campus would not be likely. Lieutenant Moak explained to us that any change would have to made districtwide, and because parking is not seen as a major problem at all of the TCC campuses, TCC administrators will not move towards changing parking anytime soon. This attitude may be because students do not feel strongly about changing parking. Through our questionnaires, we found that the majority of students are indifferent towards parking changes, so changing parking would not be necessary in order to satisfy students. However, we did find that specialized parking passes would be the most effective system of parking because it can be implemented very quickly and is fairly inexpensive for college campuses to operate. This system also provides funds for colleges to maintain and improve their parking accommodations.
Therefore, we recommend that there be no immediate action to modify parking accommodations at the Northeast campus. However, if parking does become a major problem in the future, we recommend further research into offering specialized parking passes.
We appreciate your time and we hope our recommendation report is helpful in providing insight to the parking system at the Northeast campus.

On October 7, 2015, Dr. Stacy Stuewe, our professor of Technical and Business Writing, asked us to research a problem students encounter at the Northeast campus and what could be done to combat that problem. Our group concluded that the parking system at the Northeast campus is a problem and requires change. We outlined research tasks that we needed to complete, which included researching what could be done, if change could be made, and how change would be perceived. We discovered many parking options, but the option that we deemed most effective is specialized parking passes because it is an inexpensive yet very effective method. However, we found that students were not very receptive to the idea of altering the current parking system through the distribution of questionnaires to students. We also found that change would not likely be possible according to Lieutenant Moak, Supervisor of the Police Department at the Northeast Campus. We recommend that TCC take no immediate action, but research further about the implications of offering specialized parking passes if parking does become a major problem in the future.

Executive Summary
The Northeast campus currently has an array of parking areas surrounding the campus, providing numerous parking options for students. Students have the ability to park in various parking lots around the campus, providing different levels of proximity to different buildings.
Currently, the parking accommodations at the Northeast campus are being outgrown by the student population and are a growing concern as the arrival on campus launches a hunt for a parking space. Students don’t always factor in the hunt for a parking space when determining the best time to leave home, which can sometimes result in tardiness. It is necessary for community colleges to have organized parking accommodations because the vast majority of students have to drive and park their own cars in order to get to school.
Earlier, we presented a proposal to Dr. Stuewe where we proposed to conduct research in order to find the most practical approach the Northeast campus can take to improve the quality of the parking accommodations, which included what we can do and the costs associated with each option, whether or not the parking system is able to change, and if students want to see change in the parking system.
In order to conduct this research, we gained insight to how other college campus operate their parking systems through online research. Then, we distributed questionnaires to TCC students on the Northeast campus and conducted an interview with the Northeast campus Police Department.
We discovered that change is in fact not possible because there would be many implications involved with altering the parking system. Altering the parking system would have to be a districtwide change, so all TCC campuses would have to be involved, and not every campus has parking issues. Additionally, a parking garage or new surface parking lots would not be likely because the surface lots were recently expanded and the Northeast campus does not have enough space for new construction. Furthermore, students are indifferent towards changing the parking system, so any change made would not necessarily satisfy students’ needs. However, we did find that the most popular and effective method of operating an organized parking system is implementing specialized parking passes. This method allows students to have some control over their parking experience and allows schools to obtain funds for maintenance and improvement of parking accommodations.
Because we reached these conclusions, we recommend that administrators at the Northeast campus of TCC take no immediate action in altering the parking system. However, we recommend further research into offering specialized parking passes if parking becomes a bigger problem in the future.
Introduction
Parking is a universal problem of college campuses and the Northeast campus of the Tarrant County College District is no exception. Being students of the Northeast campus, we know the daily struggles associated with parking on campus, so we would like to modify the current parking accommodations on campus.
Currently the Northeast campus has ten parking areas around the perimeter of the campus, allowing students to choose the parking area that is closest to their class. On paper, the parking accommodations at our campus are exceptional because it shows a variety of options for students so that they can park wherever is closest to their class. However, nothing is ever as good as it looks on paper. No one knows the true conditions of the parking areas on campus better than the students. Simply because the right amount of parking is available does not necessarily mean the parking accommodations fit the needs of students. Currently, the parking areas at the Northeast campus may not be arranged in the most efficient way for students. Students are having difficulties finding parking spots in certain areas because certain parking areas are nearby buildings with a higher density, meaning these buildings have heavier usage. However, there are also parking areas near buildings with a lower density, where a large parking area is not needed. In order to be successful, the parking areas need to be arranged in the most efficient way possible so that each area can have maximized usage.
In our proposal, we proposed to research possible modifications of the parking accommodations of the Northeast campus so that we could eventually recommend a modification that will improve the current parking accommodations while fitting the needs of the campus and the students. In this recommendation report, we will present the information related to our research and offer recommendations.
We have completed extensive research in order to find the most practical approach the campus can take to improve the quality of the parking accommodations on campus. Our research has concluded if students care about having improved parking accommodations, what types of parking modifications are available, and what would be possible for the Northeast campus in regards to budget and land use.
In order to effectively conduct our research, we referenced the Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan of the Tarrant County College District and similar documents of other college campuses. We also researched the websites of colleges in order to investigate the existing parking accommodations that are used at various college campuses and the cost of parking for the schools and for the students. Furthermore, we conducted surveys in order to get an idea of the popular opinion of students so that we can understand the changes that are wanted. In order to obtain information regarding the administrative side of parking, we spoke with Lieutenant Terry Moak, the Supervisor of the Police Department at the Northeast Campus.
Our research concluded that, much to our surprise, students do not feel too strongly about changing the current parking system. We did not find that an overwhelming amount of students want to change the current parking system. In fact, there was relatively the same amount of students wanting to change parking as there were wanting to keep parking the way it is. We also found that a good portion of the students that we distributed questionnaires to were indifferent towards the current parking accommodations. To supplement this information, Lieutenant Moak explained to us that any change made at the Northeast campus would have to be made districtwide, turning our simple plan of changing parking at only the Northeast campus into a more complex plan. Lieutenant Moak also shared with us that we will not see a parking garage within the next ten years and that the major problem that he sees is students parking without a pass or parking in faculty and staff parking.
We researched multiple college campuses in order to investigate the numerous systems for providing parking to thousands of students. We found an array of parking systems including parking garages, school-sponsored transportation, and specialized parking passes. The system that seemed to be most effective is offering specialized parking passes. Each school that used specialized parking passes implemented them differently, but each way seemed to be very effective. We saw this as the most effective plan because it can be easily implemented and is inexpensive for the school to operate. This system also allows colleges to have funds for the maintenance and improvement of parking lots because students pay different fees for the various types of passes.
Although we discovered a system that could be effective at the Northeast campus, we recommend that the Northeast campus of the Tarrant County College District take no immediate action to modify the current parking accommodations. However, if parking becomes a bigger problem in the future, we recommend further research into offering specialized parking passes.
In the following sections, we provide additional details about our research methods, the results of our research, the conclusions drawn from our results, and our recommendation.
Research Methods
To gain insight to what the most effective parking improvement would be for the Northeast campus, we divided the project into five tasks:
1. Research existing parking accommodations at college campuses
2. Research student attitudes toward current parking accommodations on campus
3. Research the sustainability of parking options on campus
4. Establish a budget
5. Analyze our data and prepare a recommendation report
In this section, we discuss how we performed each task and why we deemed it necessary to perform each task the way that we did.
Task 1. Research existing parking accommodations at college campuses
Each college campus across the nation has different needs, so each college campus has its own individualized parking accommodations. Because each college campus has different ways of providing parking, we decided to look at a few college campuses to see their methods of regulating parking. We focused on the following schools:
-
The University of North Texas, Denton, TX
-
Texas Christian University, Forth Worth, TX
-
Harper College, Palatine, IL
During our preliminary research, we looked at the basic structure of the parking accommodations at these campuses because we felt that it would be beneficial to model our recommendation for improving parking at the Northeast campus after these parking accommodations that are already in action. In conducting further research, we felt that it would be valuable to know about parking on these campuses because that would allow us to outline the speculations that go with each parking modification so that we would recommend a plan that fits the needs of the Northeast campus.
To acquire the necessary information, we each did some in depth research of the parking accommodations listed above. To gain insight to the parking offered by the college campuses, we looked on the website of each college to look at the layout of their parking areas, the cost to park at the school, and the types of parking accommodations.
We wanted to get an idea of what’s been working for other college campuses so that we could use one of these schools as a model of a successful parking system and have something to base our recommendation on.
Task 2. Research student attitudes toward current parking
Every college’s goal is meet every student’s needs, so anything that a college does will be unproductive if it is not favored by the students. We are only a few students at the Northeast campus, so we deemed it necessary to survey students to see if modifying the current parking accommodations is a priority or should even be considered at all.
Our preliminary research indicated that having problems with parking at the Northeast campus was not confined to our small group of students. Our personal observations recorded many students circling the parking lots in hopes of finding a parking spot daily. Furthermore, examination of the Northeast campus on the Five Year Capital Improvement Plan of the Tarrant County College District indicated that students have already voiced concern over parking on campus. The Charette Outputs, feedback from students, faculty, and staff were published on the Five Year Capital Improvement Plan and listed parking as a concern. Because our preliminary research indicated that students care about changing the parking, we went on to do further research by conducting surveys with a variety of students.
We created a survey and because we all have different classes at different times of the day, we decided to distribute the surveys in each of our classes so that we could receive a sampling of surveys that most accurately represents the entire Northeast campus student population. We even went to the student center and the library and asked students to fill out surveys. We chose to conduct surveys during all of our classes and the student center and library because those are neutral spaces in terms of parking.
We didn’t want to target one side of the campus because we didn’t want all of our responses to come from students who park in the same parking lot, resulting in responses that would be unique to that specific parking lot. Surveying students near the Fine Arts building, where the least populated parking lots are, would result in an overwhelming amount of responses that do not see a problem with parking whereas surveying students near the Science buildings, where the most populated parking lots are, would result in an overwhelming amount of responses wanting to change the parking.
Even though we already knew that parking is a concern for students, we chose to do our own survey of students so that we could analyze the parking problem and get insight to what specific changes students might want to see.
Task 3. Research the sustainability of parking options on campus
Because the Northeast campus is so very limited on space, we needed to determine what the physical campus could actually sustain. The campus is surrounded by businesses and residential structures, restricting the space that the campus has to expand, so it was important that we establish what could not be done so that we could recommend a plan that is physically possible.
We wanted to know which of our ideas from other college campuses would be possible for our campus, including if constructing new parking lots or a parking garage would be possible or if changing the layout of the parking lots would be possible.
We first looked at a map of the Northeast campus so that we could see the layout of the parking accommodations in relation to the buildings. We looked at the map so that we could see an aerial view of the campus, allowing us to get an idea of the space we would have to work with in formulating a plan to improve the parking accommodations.
Because the police department works directly with the parking lots, we chose to meet with Lieutenant Terry Moak, the Supervisor of the Police Department at the Northeast Campus. In interviewing Lt. Moak, we wanted to know the parameters for altering the parking accommodations at the Northeast campus. We did this by centering our questions around the plans that we had generated. We also wanted to get an idea of what he sees as issues with the parking accommodations, from faculty and student perspectives. As a person who works most directly with these issues as a neutral party, we felt that Lt. Moak could give us unbiased information about the parking accommodations on our campus that could help us pinpoint the true problems and create the most effective solution. Table 1 shows the questions we asked as well as the rationale for each question.
Task 4. Establish a budget
Everything costs money and those in control of the money do not want to spend it frivolously and need to know that the money is going to the right place. In establishing a budget, we wanted to determine the cost to implement each plan that we discovered, so that we could propose different plans that correspond with various price levels.
We looked at each parking accommodation that we discovered and the cost to implement each one. We did this so that we would be able to attach a general price tag to each parking plan so that we would be able to consider all factors of each plan before recommending one. We needed to ensure that we wouldn’t be recommending a plan that would be unrealistic in terms of cost. We also felt it would be important to know how much it would cost students. Since students currently do not have to pay to park on campus, we wanted to see which plans would cost students and use our results from our questionnaires from task 2 to see if making students pay to park would be a popular choice.
We also chose to research the average cost to construct a parking garage so that we would be able to present a price range for building a parking structure, if that were to be our recommendation.
In order to complete this research, we used the same sources of information that we did for task 1. Most of the university websites included information about the cost to implement the parking accommodations for the university. All of the university websites included information about the cost to park on campus for students.
Task 5. Analyze our data and prepare this recommendation report
Upon completion of our research, we analyzed the cost and feasibility of each plan in relation to the Northeast campus in order to determine the most efficient plan to recommend.
Results
In this section, we present the results of our research. We provide details about our most significant findings in carrying out each of the tasks.
Task 1. Research existing parking accommodations at college campuses
Each college campus has parking accommodations that are unique to its campus, but most college campuses have parking accommodations that are very similar to one another.
The University of North Texas in Denton, TX employs parking garages, parking meters, and specialized parking passes so that students can choose the option that best fits their needs. The university offers the following options (“Parking Permit Information”):
-
Two parking garages
-hourly rates allows the student to pay to park in the garage per hour
-garage contracts allow the student 24-hour access
-
Parking Meters
-allows drivers to pay for the time spent parked on campus
-allows drivers to pay with a meter card as opposed to change
-
Reserved Parking Permit
-allows permit holder to park in any reserved parking lots, which are closest to the campus
-available only to faculty and staff
-
Premium Commuter Permit
-allows permit holder to park in any premium commuter parking lots, which are closer to inner campus
-available to students
-
General Commuter Permit
-allows permit holder to park in any general commuter parking lot, which are on the perimeter of campus
-available to students and faculty/staff
The parking at Texas Christian University is very similar to that of the University of North Texas. The university distributes permits to students based on where the student resides while attending TCU, so unlike UNT, students do not choose their permit type. There are commuter permits, main campus permits, worth hills permits, and freshman permits. Each type of permit has designated parking lots that can be used by permit holders (“TCU Parking Regulations”).
At Harper College in Palatine, IL, students, faculty, and visitors have the opportunity to park for free in parking areas with yellow lines. Faculty and staff have the opportunity to park in reserved parking spaces if they obtain the proper parking permit. The college also has a parking structure that students have the opportunity use if they purchase a parking subscription. The structure uses a license plate recognition system so students do not have to display a placard. The structure contains 791 general spaces and 27 accessible spaces and if the subscriptions sell out, students may be put on a waitlist where they can receive the next available subscription on a first come, first serve basis (Harper College).
Each college employs very similar parking systems, but each college campus uses its own unique element in order to make their system efficient for their students.
Task 2. Research student attitudes toward current parking
Throughout our time at the Northeast campus, we’ve witnessed students struggle with parking on campus. The Five Year Capital Improvement Plan of the Tarrant County College District supports this with the Charette Outputs that presented that parking is a concern. “Feedback from students, faculty and staff through online surveys, town hall meetings, one-on-one discussions and campus charrettes revealed…needs at the Northeast campus,” with one of the needs being a parking garage if the headcount growth continues to expand beyond the capacity of the surface parking lots.
As a group, we distributed a total of 138 questionnaires randomly to students throughout campus and received all of the questionnaires from students with responses. Figure 1 shows the average responses to the following eight statements (1 = strongly disagree and 6 = strongly agree):
-
I easily find a parking space close to my classes every or almost time I come to school.
-
I have little to no problem with pedestrians holding me up when coming and going to school.
-
I feel that the current parking system works well.
-
I think that the parking system needs a dramatic change.
-
I am open to new solutions for parking issues.
-
I feel that implementing a parking garage would improve parking.
-
I feel that having special parking passes for prime parking spots would improve parking.
-
I am willing to pay to park.
The raw data of the surveys can be found in Appendix A on page 18.
Task 3. Research the sustainability of parking options on campus
We met with Lieutenant Terry Moak, the Supervisor of the Police Department at the Northeast Campus. Table 2 shows the questions we asked, our reasoning for asking those questions, and how Lt. Moak responded.
Task 4. Establish a budget
We investigated the costs to park on each campus for students and faculty and what these fees paid by students and faculty contribute to the schools.
At the University of North Texas in Denton, TX, there are different price levels for students for each type of parking permit (“Student Permits”)
-
Park in a parking garage with a contract
-
$850/year
-
$350/semester
-
$200/Summer
-
$1,200/annual reserved first floor parking
-
Park in a parking garage with hourly rates
-
up to $10 for 240+ minutes at the Highland Street Garage
-
$1.50/hour with the maximum cost being $36
-
Meter cards
-
students can load up to $100 on a meter card and pay $1/hour to park at a meter
-
Parking Permit
-
Reserved costs $525 and is only available to staff/faculty
-
Premium commuter costs $225 for a year and $175 for a semester if the student is graduating in December
-
General commuter costs $135
Because the parking at UNT receives no funding from the state or the university, it operates on the permits, fines, and fees generated by those parking on campus. The funds generated go towards parking lot maintenance and construction, security enhancements, and the enforcement of the parking lots. The university also reports that it increased the rates to park on campus in 2011 in order to accommodate the increasing cost to operate the parking accommodations. The university reports that surface lot parking spaces cost $2,000 to $6,000 per space to construct and parking garage cost $12,000 to $20,000 per space to construct (“Parking Permit Information”).
At Harper College, students can park for free in certain parking spaces. However, students can pay for a garage subscription and get access to the East Campus parking structure. The cost for students to park in the structure are as follows:
-
$135/year
-
$54/semester
-
$27/Summer
Similar to the University of North Texas, Harper College reports that the reason they employ a fee-based system to park in its parking structure is so that the college can operate and maintain the parking structure. The college does not profit from the fees that students pay, but the money goes back to the students in the form of maintaining a quality parking structure (Harper College).
Texas Christian University is different from these two colleges in that students pay a flat rate for a permit. Even though there are different types of permits, the permits are based on residential status, with no permit type getting a certain advantage, so the cost is the same for all permits (“TCU Parking Regulations”). The costs for a permit are
-
$75/year
-
$37.50/semester
-
$20/summer
Aside from colleges, Fixr.com, a website that provides cost guides for various types of construction, reported that the average parking garage is 145,000 square feet with five stories and costs $8.56 million to complete.
Conclusions
In this section, we present our conclusions based on our research. Our research answered the following questions. We created a logic box based on our conclusions so that we could make the most informed recommendation possible. The logic box can be found in Appendix B on page 19.
Is it possible?
Our interview with Lieutenant Terry Moak indicated to us that parking at the Northeast campus is not a pressing issue for administrators. He noted that he does not see very many issues with the current parking and that the issues that he does see are very miniscule. Therefore, we do not anticipate parking changes being on the agenda of TCC officials anytime soon.
We learned that what the parking system needs more than anything is the proper staff to regulate the parking areas. Lt. Moak expressed that the biggest problem that he sees is students not having parking permits or parking in staff parking. He explained that these will continue being problems because the police department has other things to focus their staff on other than parking. This reiterates our conclusion that parking is not seen as a pressing issues for TCC officials and therefore does not deserve the time, money, and energy that could go towards other projects.
Our interview also showed us that changing the parking at the Northeast campus would be more complex than we envisioned it would be. We were unaware that any change made at the Northeast campus would have to be made districtwide, which would be difficult to achieve because each campus is very different and a single plan would have to align with all of the campuses. At that point, changing the parking would become too complicated and extensive for only a very minor change, if there is any change at all.
Do students want change?
The reason behind changing parking would only be to make students’ lives easier, and since the average responses of our questionnaires were very neutral towards parking, we decided that it should not be a concern for TCC officials at the Northeast campus. If we had seen an overwhelming amount of students wanting change, we would want to direct that to the administrators’ attention so that change could be made. However, because the students at the Northeast campus express indifference towards changing parking, changing parking should not be a priority. Figure 2 shows us what the student responses mean.
Just because parking is not a concern for students now does not mean that it will not be a concern for students in the future. Eventually, the student population at the Northeast campus will outgrow the current parking system and change will be needed, but for right now, students are overall pleased with the parking accommodations at the Northeast campus. Changing the parking may even disrupt students and make them unhappy.
What can we do?
Although our evidence does not suggest changing the parking at the Northeast campus, some of our research indicated what kind of changes could be good changes for the campus. Once the parking accommodations at the Northeast campus become a hassle, we found that offering various levels of specialized parking passes is the most effective way to organize parking at a college campus.
We found that a system of specialized parking passes is comparatively inexpensive for schools to operate and allows the school the opportunity to raise funds for the maintenance of parking areas. Colleges that employ specialized parking passes are able to maintain and improve their parking areas, with funds coming from the fees that students pay for the passes. It is very effective in that is does not require new construction, but can be implemented in whatever parking areas a college campus may have, making it the most flexible plan.
Recommendation
We recommend taking no immediate action to modify the parking accommodations at the Northeast campus. Our interview with Lt. Moak indicated that changing the parking at the Northeast campus would be a very complex process and is not a priority of administrators. Additionally, students do not see problems with our current parking accommodations and therefore do not desire a change in parking.
However, if parking at the Northeast campus becomes a more prominent issue in the future, we recommend further research into offering specialized parking passes because we saw that college campus that have employed various levels of parking passes have been successful in keeping their parking accommodations organized. Additionally, college campuses that administer specialized parking passes are able to add funds to the maintenance and improvement of their parking accommodations.
