Im Unfortunately these findings are inaccurate and do not reflect existing conditions as can be, and have been, observed at the intersection of Cabrillo Park Drive and Xerox Centre Drive. The actual existing observed conditions, not the mathematical assumptions, show a regular condition of morning and evening queues filling the driveway. Adding any additional traffic to these existing movements will create additional conditions affecting flow Into the Xerox Centre parking structure and potentially impact Cabrillo Park Drive. Furthermore, the traffic operations of the turn -around area where The Madison proposes to place its sole access point and the conflicting interactions between existing vehicles associated with the Xerox Centre building and the proposed vehicles associated with The Madison, have not been analyzed in the report. SITE PLAN REVIEW LSA also reviewed the site plan and its proposed circulation accommodations for any potential concerns that have not been addressed in the report. The site plan from the report, Figure 2-2, is provided In Attachment A for reference. As shown on Figure 2-2, the loading zone Is proposed to be placed along the inbound drive aisle on Xerox Centre Drive between The Madison's parking garage entrance and Cabrillo Park Drive. This loading zone is approximately SO feet long and appears to serve large vehicles (e.g., delivery and moving trucks) for both the retail and residential uses adjacent to the only inbound lane that provides access to both the Xerox Centre building and The Madison. The report does not address the operations of the proposed loading zone and its facilitation of large moving and delivery vehicles. LSA finds this to be a potential issue because there is no viable alternative provided on the existing site plan for parking large moving and delivery vehicles. The proposed parking garage does not facilitate an internal turnaround area, and use of the proposed fire lane would hamper emergency access. Emergency access needs aside, the proposed fire lane does not provide a viable turnaround for large vehicles. Due to the lack of analysis of potential inbound conflicts on Xerox Centre Drive between the actual project driveway and Cabrillo Park Drive and placement of this loading zone, there are concerns about how the introduction of project residents and large vehicle traffic would interact with existing traffic associated with the Xerox Centre building. LSA staff assessed the accuracy of the report's access analysis of buildout conditions by visiting the intersection of Cabrillo Park Drive and Xerox Centre Drive during both the weekday morning and evening peak periods and conducting a survey of actual traffic conditions. Morning Peak Period LSA staff visited the site on Monday, December 4, 2017, between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. and made the following observations: + Morning traffic patterns in the vicinity of Cabrillo Park Drive and the Xerox Centre building are primarily inbound movements onto Xerox Centre Drive. 4/].1)18 OP;\PMR1701\doe\S , Aa tett A=v
