Public Safety Commissioner John Oberthien says a computerized system could save over 20000 dollars yearly by reducing cashier staff for the 532 space ramp to be built next year. He notes 24 hour operation, faster exits, and eventual payback within five years as studies proceed.
Oberthien says completion in about a month. Plans for the five story ramp between Third and Fourth avenues SE aim to finish in early September with bids to open in October and construction of the 1.4 million facility expected to wrap in time for the 1972 Christmas shopping season.
Oberthien said the city may link municipal lots and ramps into a single computer unit capable of handling three to four operations from one location. The First Street garage could be the first conversion, eliminating cashiers and saving money while retired workers may be offered new jobs where possible.
