<br />Lonz-Term Stav Hotel <br /> <br />Draft Parkin>! Study <br /> <br />5.0 FINDINGS <br /> <br />This section summarizes the key findings of the parking study. <br /> <br />· The observed average parking rate at the three surveyed hotels was 0.81 parking spaces per <br />occupied room for a typical weekday. <br /> <br />· The observed average parking rate at the three surveyed hotels was 0.77 parking spacers per <br />occupied room for a typical weekend day. <br /> <br />· The parking requirement based on the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code was 205 parking <br />spaces. <br /> <br />· The parking requirements based on the ITE Parking Generation was 168 parking spaces. <br /> <br />· Each jurisdiction calculates the hotel parking requirements differently. Therefore, the <br />parking requirements varied from a low of92 parking spaces to a high of368 parking spaces. <br /> <br />· Each jurisdiction would accept a variance to the parking requirements provided an <br />independent transportation consultant conducted a parking study. <br /> <br />· The parking requirement based on the average parking rate at the three surveyed hotel of <br />0.81 parking spaces per occupied room is 149 parking spaces if the proposed ESA hotel <br />operated at full occupancy. Because 190 parking spaces are provided on-site, there will be a <br />surplus of 41 parking spaces, which will justify the proposed 15-space parking variance. <br /> <br />· Assuming a 90 percent occupancy rate at the proposed ESA hotel, the parking requirement <br />based on the average parking rate at the three surveyed hotel of 0.81 parking spaces per <br />occupied room is 134 parking spaces. <br /> <br />· The proposed ESA hotel will provide sufficient parking for each forecasted parking <br />requirement based on each methodology and for each jurisdiction except for the Cities of <br />Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach and Santa Ana. The Cities of Huntington Beach and Santa <br />Ana had parking rates that closely resembles one parking space per room, which was higher <br />than the observed parking rates as determined in this study. The City of Costa Mesa counts <br />hotels rooms with kitchens as residential units. <br /> <br />Page 12 <br /> <br />TCB <br /> <br />75A-54 <br />
