Page A -1 Corona del Mar Parking Management Plan Proposal Nelson \Nygaard proposes the following work plan to develop parking management recommendations. We believe this work plan will allow the Corona del Mar BID to cost - effectively assess and maximize parking resources, and offer strategic guidance to for short -and long -term parking management decisions We have included what we believe is adequate detail to demonstrate how we would undertake all the activities outlined. We would be happy to discuss our proposed approach in greater depth or provide any additional information that would be helpful to the BID in evaluating our proposal. If selected, our first task would be to refine and confirm the scope, schedule, and budget in conversation with the BID to make sure it aligns with the goals and the resources available for this study. Please see our proposed project budget, Figure r on page g, and proposed project schedule, Figure 2 on page ro for start and completion dates as well as cost estimates for each task and sub -task detailed below. All deliverables will be submitted in electronic format (Word and /or PDF). NelsonWygaard Consulting Associates Inc, 13 Corona del Mar Parking Management Plan Proposal • 2oo8 Corona del Mar (Walker) parking study • Documented changes in the parking supply since 2oo8 • Future plans or proposals to expand or contract on- or off - street parking • Any relevant special event parking plans • Electronic files of base maps of the project areas, including parcel lines, rights of way, street names, and project areas boundaries 22 Existing Parking Supply and Demand Assessment Parking utilization and turnover rates and patterns will be analyzed to assess the capacity for the existing supply to meet current demand. Based on these observations, Nelson \Nygaard will determine the amount of parking surplus or deficit given the existing parking supply. This information will be analyzed using Geographic Information System (GIS) maps to detail peak usage by lot and for each block face for the study area as a whole, as well as for individual zones or key sub -areas as identified by the BID. In addition, Nelson \Nygaard will develop a comprehensive list of all land use quantities within Corona del Mar using the most current land use data provided by the BID or City. Utilizing this land use inventory, Nelson \Nygaard will be able to conduct an objective assessment of actual parking usage during a "typical day ", with an emphasis placed on peak occupancies during the count periods. More specifically, Nelson \Nygaard will determine both the built ratio and the demand ratio of parking. The built ratio compares the total number of existing parking spaces to the total existing square footage of occupied building space within Corona del Mar. The demand ratio represents peak hour parking occupancy, combining the on- and off - street supply. In short, actual parked vehicles can be correlated to actual occupied building area to develop ratios that can be effectively compared to Code requirements. This analysis will enable Nelson \Nygaard to demonstrate the effects of development on parking and will be used to inform the recommendations related to parking management, including opportunities for shared parking among various land uses. Task 2 Deliverable: Technical Memorandum: Existing Parking Conditions qx? `'YI„yt�t 5. ;�sit4t tv�tti ti"et `i MAN -1`9 l` i- 3.1 Future Parking Supply and Demand Assessment In Task 3, Nelson \Nygaard will build upon its existing conditions analysis to project future demand for parking, taking into account upcoming parking supply changes (e.g. potential loss of on- street parking near MacArthur Boulvevard and Pacific Coast Highway) or development projects in Corona del Mar. An assessment of the factors driving existing and projected parking demand will be performed to establish an understanding of how parking behavior in each of the areas is influenced. This assessment will be based on: • Existing and projected parking supply • Existing and projected parking utilization patterns • Anticipated policy or zoning changes that could influence supply or demand • Anticipated development changes that could influence supply or demand Nelson \Nygaard will build future parking demand ratios based on these variables in light of the results obtained from Task 2, which will their be used to analyze parking needs for the entire study area and identified sub - zones. The ratios will be compared to Code requirements in light of new potential shared parking arrangements and the creation of efficient "park once" environments. This information will also help the BID to better measure the trade-offs involved in implementing different parking management strategies. NelsonlNygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 14 Corona del Mar Parking Management Plan Proposal Task 3 Deliverable: Technical Memorandum: Future Parking Conditions 4.9 Preliminary Parking Demand Management Strategy Nelson \Nygaard's experience and expertise in parking management has shown that traditional approaches to parking challenges, which often focus on simply increasing supply, are not always supportive of larger community efforts to create balanced neighborhoods that support growth while meeting the needs of merchants, residents, employees, and visitors in creating a friendly, walkable district. Our belief is that overall parking goals must reflect the ways in which parking can support the BID'S larger objectives, while recognizing the importance of maintaining access for all users. In short, we seek to provide not just supply -side solutions, but cost - effective strategies that address parking demand. As such, our recommendations will focus on implementing sound demand management strategies for all on- and off - street parking facilities. These demand management strategies, or suites of strategies, will consider the following elements: Optimization of existing spaces— including a physical assessment of current parking facilities, as well as an analysis of time restrictions, existing wayfinding programs, and real -time information about parking availability. Ensuring that motorists are aware of, and can easily access, existing parking facilities, especially those within walking distance, will be an essential parking management goal. M Time limit and /or Pricing strategies— including, but not limited to, modified time limits, employee parking pricing, unbundling parking costs from office leases and residential rents, leasing of private spaces, in -lieu fees, and modified rates and hours of operation for both on- and off - street spaces. Residential and /or Employee Parking Permit programs —as a means to address spillover into residential neighborhoods and the long -term use of parking facilities by employees. Existing permit programs will be evaluated, and suggested possible changes to these programs could include boundaries of a permit district, hours and days of operation, pricing of permits and funding opportunities, permits per household /employee, and implementation processes. Transportation demand management strategies and improvements to alternative transportation —will consider the potential for possible improvements to transit, vanpool, carpool, bicycle and pedestrian networks and programs, and carshare programs, in order to ensure that the overall plan directs investment into the most cost- effective mix of parking improvements and improvements to alternative transportation in order to meet the needs of the district. * Bicycle and pedestrian improvements— programs and infrastructure to increase walking or biking can significantly reduce the need to provide short -term parking. We will focus on efforts to encourage drivers to make other stops by foot or bike after parking once. 4.2 Preliminary Parking Supply Management Strategy In addition to managing the demand for parking, it is also essential to address parking supply. Although Corona del Mar will likely benefit from a host of measures from revised sharing standards to proper on- street management, it is anticipated that supply strategies such as regulatory parking reform will play an equally critical role in achieving a vibrant, prosperous district. Supply management strategies, or suites of strategies, will consider the following elements: Nelson \Nygaard Consulting Assoc +aces Inc. 15 Corona del Mar Parking Management Plan Proposal Regulatory reforms— Often, outdated or little known provisions of a city's zoning ordinance can inhibit desired developments and stymie economic growth. Several development standards will be examined 'including, blended non - residential ratios, shared parking provisions, varied minimum /maximum requirements, and off -site parking allowances. These strategies will all seek to create and support a "park- once" district, in which motorists will be able to park once and then walk to multiple destinations. • Evaluation of opportunity sites —to determine what parcels of land may be appropriate for the development of future parking facilities if deemed necessary and supportive of larger community goals. Identify potential reconfiguration of existing off - street parking lots to increase parking supply. • Park - and -Ride shuttle opportunities —to transport motorists between peripheral lots and their destinations. This will be especially valuable in preparing for special events when demand is unusually high. • Bike parking strategies -- Identify opportunities and potential locations for additional bicycle parking within the district. Nelson \Nygaard will provide estimates of expenditures for all supply and demand management strategies that generate capital or operating costs. Task 4 Deliverable: Technical Memorandum: Preliminary Parking Management Strategies Nelson \Nygaard will compile all data analysis and recommendations into a comprehensive Parking Management Plan for Corona del Mar. The plan will summarize the project goals and objectives, key findings, and specific recommendations based on the quantitative analysis and public input. In addition, it will include a phased approach to implementing recommended strategies. For example, shorter term issues are expected to include changes in parking code and/or the development of in -lieu fees that can be implemented in conjunction with current or future development proposals. Long -term issues may include setting the groundwork for future residential parking permit or benefit districts. The plan will be written in a concise and clear style that will incorporate appropriate visual graphics to ensure that it is a user - friendly document. Nelson \Nygaard will submit a draft plan for review and based on an electronic single set of non- conflicting comments from the BID, we will revise and submit a final plan. Task 5 Deliverables: Draft & Final Parking Management Plan xt` t t zt t t o �tti` t o t a i ul i ti xn ;* t `h lltt4l t F 6.9 Progress Meetings Nelson \Nygaard will participate in two coordination and progress meetings with BID staff and key community stakeholders (not including the project kick -off), one of which will be conducted via conference call. These meetings will supplement ongoing and regular communication provided by Nelson \Nygaard. Nelson \Nygaard views these meetings as vital to the development of this study and plan. These meetings will provide the BID and other stakeholders the opportunity to not only stay apprised of the project status, but also actively provide direction and feedback to the consultant. Nelson \Nygaard will prepare meeting materials including agendas and handouts as necessary for each meeting.
