Media Relations
SchlumbergerSema Parking Pay Station Introduction
Public Solutions planned and implemented an event to introduce parking pay and display stations to the citizens of San Diego. The City of San Diego recently raised parking meter rates; issues such as parking meter upgrades, rate increases and parking enforcement have been under examination. In order to introduce the parking pay station to citizens and leadership in San Diego, Public Solutions set up a Schlumberger pay and display station for demonstration in the Civic Center Plaza. The unique look of the pay station piqued the curiosity of nearby people; representatives were on hand to answer any questions about the system and hand out informational material. Interested people were able to try out the station using a credit card, to see how easy it is to use. The informational event received attention from everyday citizens and elected officials, and was covered by a local broadcast news crew.

Public Relations
Stadium Golf Center
Public Solutions worked to establish a relationship with the community and build upon an existing relationship with their City Councilmember. We translated Stadium Golf owners’ desire to help the community into action by coordinating the donation of a vehicle to the baseball team of a local school that suffered fire damage. We worked with the Cycle Center to get a special discount rate on the vehicle; the high school booster club to get a list of needs and show parent support; school officials to get approval and participation at the planned media event; and the councilmember’s staff to ensure the councilmember could attend the event to express his support for the school and Stadium Golf’s philanthropic act. We also arranged for the donation event to be featured on a local morning news show.
