The West Warwick Civic Center is a place that the students park everyday of the school year. After recently finding out that the Complex will be renovated and students will need to find new parking, the committee has come up with the alternative to open 30 spots in the teacher parking lot for the students. The administration is deciding how to distribute these spots but, this will not be sufficient to accommodate all the student drivers. Students also do not have the privilege to park on the side streets due to local ordinances. As a student, I have come up with four alternatives and criteria to make it easier for the student body to park. The criteria I have established to make an economical decision is, beneficial for the student, the

This alternative could potentially benefit all the students if every student does get picked some time throughout the year. It is not guaranteed that every person will get picked though. The problem with a raffle is that, the same person could get picked every week and this would be unfair for all the other students. There is also no guarantee that the person picking the names is not rigging the raffle and picking the same people each week. This alternative will also be free for all the students. Raffling off the spots is not equal for all the students though. Again, the raffle could be rigged or some students could just have better luck and get picked as one of the 30 names every week. Another alternative for the student parking problem is, paying for the 30 spots. Paying for the 30 spots will only benefit the students willing to pay. Some students may not have the money to pay for the spots each day and also determining how much the spots will cost will be difficult. Parents could also begin to complain that their child has to now pay for parking when before they had guaranteed, free parking every day at the complex. This alternative is also not equal for all the students since not every person has the funds to pay for a spot each …show more content…
This would work by rotating the 30 spots by giving them to student drivers in alphabetical order. Each week administration will go down the alphabetical ordered list of student drivers. This will benefit all the students because, each week a new set of 30 people will be given the spots for a week. Going down an ordered list will make it possible to give every student driver an opportunity to get a spot for at least one week. This alternative will also be cost free and not make students pay for parking. The alternative will also be equal for all students. It is equal because, everyone will get the opportunity to get a parking spot at least one week and also everyone will have to find other parking somedays. Between the four alternatives and the decision making matrix I have created, the best alternative for the students would be to rotate the spots week to week. This would benefit every students because they all have the same opportunity, this alternative is cost free, and this is equal for all the students and gives every student the same routine to go by. On the decision making matrix this alternative ranked the highest according to the criteria and would be the best economical decision for all the
