parking requirements, especially the TZC, far exceed the parking needs for a <br />downtown setting. Therefore, to help encourage mobility and make use of available <br />public parking in the area, a reduction to the City’s parking standards is needed. This <br />type of Project is consistent with the mixed-use nature of the area, proximity to <br />regional transit facilities and bus routes (i.e., Santa Ana Regional Transportation <br />Center), and extensive bicycling by City of Santa Ana residents. <br />The parking requirement for the retail component is based on City TZC ratio 1 space <br />per 4000 square feet (SF) would result in a parking requirement of 31 spaces. The <br />retail component of this Project is anticipated to utilize the nearby City-owned <br />parking garages which are located on the southwest corner of 5th Street at Main Street <br />(7-levels, 400 spaces), and on 5th Street at Spurgeon Street, directly east of Bush <br />Street (4-levels, 700 spaces). Figure 1 also highlights the location of the city owned <br />parking garages with respect to the proposed Project. The table below provides a <br />summary of parking surplus (available spaces) data provided by City staff for these <br />two City-owned parking garages during the weekday hours of 11:00 AM and 2:00 <br />PM. Based on review this information, a minimum of 527 spaces were available <br />during the 11:00 AM hour, whereas a minimum of 638 spaces were available at the <br />2:00 PM hour. <br />Date <br />5th at Spurgeon <br />Available Spaces <br />5th at Main <br />Available Space <br />Total Available <br />Spaces <br />11AM 2PM 11AM 2PM 11AM 2PM <br />Monday, October 1, 2018 561 577 117 169 678 746 <br />Tuesday, October 2, 2018 547 559 126 158 673 717 <br />Wednesday, October 3, 2018 507 570 140 152 647 722 <br />Thursday, October 4, 2018 537 581 129 120 666 701 <br />Friday, October 5, 2018 569 573 140 100 709 673 <br />Thursday, November 1, 2018 449 560 78 160 527 720 <br />Friday, November 2, 2018 471 587 120 188 591 775 <br />Monday, December 3, 2018 518 584 144 159 662 743 <br />Tuesday, December 4, 2018 547 571 127 153 674 724 <br />Wednesday, December 5, 2018 540 590 85 170 625 760 <br />Thursday, December 6, 2018 554 556 107 116 661 672 <br />Friday, December 7, 2018 485 544 89 94 574 638 <br /> <br />Additionally, Figure 4 further highlights the hourly parking demand profile for both <br />locations during a typical weekday, based on an evaluation of parking data provided <br />by the City for Wednesday December 5, 2018. Review of the tabular information <br />provided above (parking surpluses), combined with a review of Figure 4 shows that <br />during the peak midday period there is more than 500 available spaces within the two <br />1- 116
