Mr, William Rothacker, Jr. <br />April 13, 2016 <br />Page 4 <br />CODE PARli NG REQUIREMENTS <br />The code parking calculation for Target Center is based on the City's requirements as <br />outlined in Chapter 41— Zoning, Article X! Off Street Farling of the City of Santa <br />Ana Municipal Code. The City's Municipal Code specifies the following parking <br />requirements: <br />■ Retail stores and service uses: five (5) spaces for each 1,000 SF of Gross <br />Floor Area (617A). <br />Medical, dental, psychiatric, and chiropractic offices and clinics: six (6) <br />spaces per '1,000 SF of GFA, <br />■ Restaurant, cafes; etc,: ten (10) spaces per 1,000 SF ofGFA. <br />:Cable 2 presents the existing code parking requirements for the existing development <br />plus the proposed suite tenancy change. As shown, this application of city parking <br />ratios to the existing and proposed mix of uses at Target Center results in a total <br />parking requirement of 1,01.2 parking spaces. With a proposed parking supply of 711 <br />spaces, a theoretical code shortfall of 301 spaces is indicated. <br />However, the specific tenancy mix of Target Center provides an opportunity to share <br />panlcing spaces based on the utilization profile of each included laud use component. The <br />following section calculates the parking requirements for Target Center based on the <br />shared parking methodology approach, <br />SHARED PARKING ANALYSIS <br />Shared Parking Methodology <br />Accumulated experience in parking demand characteristics indicates that a mixing of <br />land Wises results in an overall parking need that is less than the sum of the individual <br />peals requirements for each land use. Due to the existing and proposed mixed -use <br />characteristics of Target Center, opportunities to share parking now occur and can be <br />expected to continue with full occupancy. The objective of this shared parking <br />analysis is to forecast the peak parking requirements for the project based on the <br />combined demand patterns of different tenancy types at the site. <br />Shared parking calculations recognize that different uses often experience individual <br />peak parking demands at different times of day, or days of the week. When uses <br />share common parting footprints, the total number of spaces needed to support the <br />collective whole is determined by adding parking profiles (by time of day for <br />weekdays versus weekend days), rather than individual peak ratios as represented in <br />31 B -15 <br />
