However, based on conversations with each jurisdiction, each jurisdiction would accept a variance to the parking requirements provided an independent transportation consultant performed a parking study. The requirements of the parking study included the consultant collecting parking counts at multiple locations with similar land uses. The consultant then would derive the parking requirements based on the observed parking rates. 4.2.4 Parking Occupancy Parking Demand As discussed in Section 3.3, the average peak parking rate for a weekday was 0.81 parking spaces per occupied room, and the average peak parking rate for weekend day was 0.77 parking spaces per occupied room. Because the parking rate for a weekday was higher than the weekend day, the parking requirements for a weekday take precedence. Therefore, the parking requirement for the proposed ESA hotel is 149 parking spaces if the hotel operates at full occupancy. Because 190 parking spaces are provided on-site, there will be a surplus of 41 parking spaces. However, hotels typically do not operate at full occupancy. Assuming the proposed ESA hotel will operate at 90 percent of full capacity, the parking requirement is 134 parking spaces with a surplus of 56 parking spaces. 4.3 Parking Analysis The parking requirements calculated in Section 4.2 based on the four different methodologies was compared against the future parking supply at the proposed ESA hotel to determine if sufficient parking would exist. Table 4.3-1 summarizes the parking demand based on the four methodologies and parking supply. As shown in Table 4.3-1, the proposed ESA hotel will provide sufficient parking spaces based on each methodology and for each jurisdiction except for the parking requirements for the Cities of Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach and Santa Ana. The Cities of Huntington Beach and Santa Ana had parking rates that closely resembles one parking space per room, which was higher than the observed parking rates as determined in this study. The City of Costa Mesa counts hotels with kitchens as residential units. Tes Page 10 75A-52
