The review was completed to assist in evaluating parking needs for the expansion of the existing office building. The existing building at 1100 Quail contains 23,300 grass square feet and has parking provisions for 94 vehicles. This parking supply includes one handicapped space and no samll car spaces. The proposed expansion would add 5,243 gross square feet to the existing building; however, no additional parking is proposed. In order to determine existing parking demands, field studies were conducted on two morning periods and two afternoon periods. These field studies in- cluded the1100 Quail building and the two adjacent buildings. The results of the field studies are summarized in Table 1 . For comparison purposes, ratios of parking demand per 1 ,000 square feet of gross building area were calculated and are included in Table 1 . While building occupancy data are not available, it was noted that the 1200 Quail building did not have an advertisement for available space. Review of Table 1 indicates that current parking demand ratios vary from 1 .8 to 3.7 spaces per 1 ,000 square feet of gross building area. The average ratio was 2.7 for all three buildings. Current parking demands for the 1100 Quail building were also found to be lower than either of the adjacent buildings. j 2651 EAST CHAPMAN AVENUE • SUITE 110 9 FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA 92631 • (714) 871-2931 d v dam=++ Table 1 PARKING SURVEY SUMMARY 1100 Quail 1000 Quail 1100 uail 1200 Quail DATE TIME a is es R to io(1 ) Vehicles Ratio Ratio(2) Vehicles Ratio(' 12/12/83 2:15 PM 91 3.7 52 2.2 46 2.6 12/13/83 10:05 AM 77 3.2 53 2.3 47 2.7 12/13/83 3:10 PM 83 3.4 43 1 .8 41 2.3 12/14/83 10:00 AM 81 3.3 53 2.3 55 3.1 (1) Based upon 24,899 square feet.

If the 94 parking spaces remain to serve the expanded building, a ratio of 3.3 spaces per 1 ,000 feet of gross building area would exist. This ratio is above the current observed average and below the observed peak. These comparisons would indicate that the existing parking supply will be adequate to accommodate the expanded faci- lity. It is recommended that consideration be given to providing some small car spaces to increase the supply. This would allow for fluctuations in demands due to various tenants over a period of time. In summary, the proposed parking ratio for the expanded 1100 Quail building would be above the average found for the area and less than the observe peak ratio. Since there are no small car spaces at present, it is recommended that the existing layout be reviewed for the potential of increasing the park69 supply with small car spaces. An incr•edsc would provide for poten- tial increases and demand fluctuations due to varying building occupants. We trust that this review will be of assistance to you.
