r-' I 2.0 Parkinq Analvsis 2.1 Parking Analysis ( l \ f' I t The City of Santa Ana Parking Code is included in Appendix A. According to the City Parking Code, the Bristol/Warner Shopping Center would need to provide a total of 495 parking spaces for the proposed uses, including the existing furniture store as a standard retail use. Table 3 shows the City parking requirements per land use within the site. However, because of the mixed-use nature of Bristol/Warner Shopping Center, a ULI shared parking analysis has been completed to determine the appropriate amount of parking needed for the project. · r The developer plans to seek relief from parking standards based on the differences in peak usage hours for the individual (complimentary) uses, which will reduce the demand for parking spaces. There are 471 proposed parking spaces at the Bristol/Warner Shopping Center. However, based upon the shared parking concept, there will be sufficient parking spaces available for parking to meet the needs of the proposed project. The project land uses are compatible with one another and lend themselves to the use of shared parking because the uses are complimentary (i.e., retail and restaurant), and people could often go there for more than one purpose in only one trip. For example, people going to the restaurant could utilize retail uses within the site, or office workers could utilize both the retail and restaurant uses; therefore, reducing the typical amount of parking demand required for the individual uses. In addition, the weekend peak parking demand for the office would be significantly less than during weekday conditions. The multi-use nature of the land uses at Bristol/Warner Shopping Center lends itself to the reduction in overall parking generation as a result of the mix of land uses within the site. 2-1 31A~23
