well served by transit, the actual parking demand ranges between 0.41 <br /> and 0.68 spaces per employee. This indicates that transit service can <br /> produce a significant reduction in the need for office parking. <br /> Another parking study recently completed in Anaheim showed <br /> actual parking usage rates of 5.0 spaces/1,OO0 SF for retail and 3.0 <br /> spaces/1,OO0 SQ for high rise offices. This is the same as required in <br /> the massive Century City office development. Examination of the parking <br /> being provided by the Continental Cities Development shows 3.0 <br /> spaces/1,O0O SF are being supplied. <br /> The City of Santa Ana code requirement of 6.7 spaces/1,000 SF <br /> of retail is higher than necessary to satisfy normal or even peak retail <br /> _ parking demand. <br /> TABLE 6 <br /> CITY CODE PARKING REQUIREMENTS <br /> V Parking Required (spaces per unit) <br /> Land Use Unit Santa Ana Typical Requirements <br /> Office 1,000 SF 3 2.4 - 4.0 <br /> Retail 1,000 SF 6.7 4.5 - 5.0 <br /> Hotel Room 0.5+0.33/ 1.0 <br /> employee <br /> * Transit Service <br /> Existing bus routes, stops and transfer locations serving the <br /> study area are presented in Figure 22.
