<br />Mr. Enrique Legaspi <br />February 9, 2005 <br />Page 6 <br /> <br />Please note that based on general traffic engineering principles, a parking utilization <br />of 90% or greater is considered the threshold at which drivers begin to experience <br />difficulties in finding a place to park. As presented in Table 5, the project site <br />experienced parking demands significantly less than 90% of the parking supply <br />throughout the two survey days. <br /> <br />Appendix A contains the detailed parking survey data count sheets. <br /> <br />SHARED PARKING ANALYSIS (BASED ON PARKING SURVEYS) <br /> <br />In order to accurately forecast the future parking demand for the Santa Ana <br />Downtown Plaza project and validate the theoretical shared parking analysis, the <br />shared parking methodology was utilized in combination with the actual on-site <br />parking surveys. <br /> <br />Tables 6 and 7 present the Weekday and Weekend Shared Parking Analysis that <br />includes data obtained from the parking surveys. As shown in these two tables, the <br />existing parking surveys are presented in column 1. <br /> <br />Please note that a ten percent (10%) contingency factor was applied to the existing <br />parking survey data to allow for daily variations and/or fluctuations in existing <br />parking demand and to allow for future potential changes in the existing tenants. This <br />contingency factor is presented in the second column of Tables 6 and 7. <br /> <br />The third column of Tables 6 and 7 present the shared parking demands of the <br />currently vacant 975 SF suite that is designated for retail use. <br /> <br />The fourth column of Tables 6 and 7 present the forecast hourly parking demands of <br />the proposed Famsa expansion project based on City parking codes and ULI's shared <br />parking utilization profiles for a furniture store. <br /> <br />As shown in Table 6, the weekday peak parking demand is forecast to occur during <br />the 12:00 PM with a demand of 303 spaces. With a parking supply of 505 spaces, a <br />parking surplus of 202 spaces is forecast during the center's peak parking demand <br />time period. <br /> <br />As shown in Table 7, the project site is forecast to experience a weekend peak <br />parking demand at 2:00 PM with 352 spaces. With a parking supply of 505 spaces, <br />the site is forecast to provide a parking surplus of 153 spaces. <br /> <br />N \2";'!'2'}4C5'i1\Repml.e591 bm<J Exp"r.,io" Shared Parking ,\naly", oe-09-os55A.rn 18 <br /> <br />
