To demonstrate that adequate parking supply exists for Project, this parking assessment provides a review of the parking requirements and estimates the peak parking demands for the Project land uses. A total of 279 parking spaces are dedicated to the mixed-use development (residential) and hotel as shown in Exhibit A.
