anchor Description
This project provides for the renovation of or improvements to Bethesda parking facilities. This is a continuing program of contractual improvements or renovations, with changing priorities depending upon the type of deterioration and corrections required, that will protect or improve the physical infrastructure to assure safe and reliable parking facilities and to preserve the County's investment. The scope of this project will vary depending on the results of studies conducted under the Facility Planning Parking project. Included are annual consultant services to provide investigation, analysis, recommended repair methods, contract documents, inspection, and testing, if required.
anchorCost Change
A total increase of $100,000 in FY23 and FY24 for elevator maintenance.
anchor Justification
Staff inspection and condition surveys by County inspectors and consultants indicate that facilities in the Bethesda Parking Lot District (PLD) are in need of rehabilitation and repair work. Not performing this restoration work within the time and scope specified may result in serious structural integrity problems to the subject parking facilities as well as possible public safety hazards.

- Garage 47 Waverly Avenue re-decking of entire facility. Major corrosion and deterioration will require closing down this garage if remedial work is not accomplished.
