5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The El Cerrito Parking Study was conducted in order to provide information to City staff, developers, and others as they develop and implement parking standards and programs for transit-oriented developments (TOD). The study included a survey of existing parking conditions and research on best practice examples of TOD parking management strategies adopted in other cities. The study has resulted in a set of recommended changes to parking requirements and 15 recommended parking management strategies that are intended to efficiently accommodate parking needs while reducing overall parking demands in El Cerrito. CHS Consulting has presented the results of parking surveys and best practices research to the City Council on July 18, 2011, and the evaluation of future parking demand and recommended parking management strategies on November 21, This report summarizes the materials presented, and the comments and responses discussed during these meetings. Study Findings The parking survey found that overall on-street parking occupancy rates are generally low (approximately 40 percent), except for the areas surrounding the City s two BART stations El Cerrito del Norte and El Cerrito Plaza BART Stations (approximately 70 percent). Survey findings also supported a popular perception that the BART commuters are using the residential streets near the BART station for their long-term parking needs. The off-street parking occupancy survey shows that, while the BART parking facilities are heavily used during the week day period (approximately 100 percent) the majority of offstreet parking facilities are often underutilized (approximately 45 percent). In order to estimate parking needs for future TODs, CHS Consulting tested parking ratios obtained from various sources, including the City of El Cerrito s existing parking code provisions, inputs from local developers, outputs from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission s (MTC) Smart Growth Parking Demand Model, national average of parking demands, and the best practice examples from eight different cities with successful TOD projects in the United States. The analysis concludes that the parking needs in future TODs would be approximately 20 percent less than the parking spaces required under the City s existing codes. As such, CHS Consulting recommends reduced parking requirements which reflect a realistic level of parking needs. It is expected that the new parking requirements would prevent developers having to provide more parking spaces than needed and would enable the implementation of sustainable TODs in the future. Recommendations In order to ensure that the reduction in parking supply, as a result of reduced parking requirements, would not cause parking impacts, a total of 15 parking management strategies are proposed. These parking management strategies are intended to reduce parking demand while efficiently accommodating parking needs. These strategies in the order of implementation priority and cost-effectiveness on reducing parking demand are as follows: Unbundle parking spaces Install 10-hour paid parking near BART stations at the rate no lower than the comparable rate at BART parking facilities Charge BART patrons for on-street parking Increase BART parking fees to $2 per day and $84 per month Establish a Joint Powers Association Page 3 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

6 Allow developers to use on-street parking spaces to meet off-street parking requirements Encourage the use of carshare services Provide bicycle and pedestrian-friendly site design and aggressive bicycle parking requirements Offer credits for bicycle and motorcycle parking, in lieu of vehicle parking requirements Require Transportation Demand Management Programs Establish a Transportation Management Association Provide EcoPass for residents Provide free BART parking for carpool and vanpool vehicles Employ parking attendants in BART parking facilities Page 4 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

7 1.0 INTRODUCTION The El Cerrito Parking Study is funded by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the City of El Cerrito. The primary purpose of the study is to determine parking demand, recommend changes to parking requirements, and develop parking management strategies for the future Transit- Oriented Developments (TOD) and businesses along San Pablo Avenue in El Cerrito. It is also intended to address the existing and future commuter parking issues in the City s two Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) stations: the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station and the El Cerrito Plaza BART Station. The parking study initially evaluated the existing parking conditions in the two BART station areas and along San Pablo Avenue by conducting on-street and off-street parking occupancy surveys. The survey results informed the level of existing parking demand, parking problem areas and opportunities for improvements. In addition, research on the best practice examples of innovative parking management strategies and policies adopted in other U.S. cities provided a resource for potential parking management strategies the City of El Cerrito could adopt. As part of deliverables for the study, CHS Consulting has submitted a report summarizing the parking survey results on June 30, 2011, and a memorandum summarizing the future parking demands on November 8, CHS Consulting has also attended two City Council meetings and presented the results of parking surveys and best practices research on July 18, 2011, and the evaluation of future parking demand and recommended parking management strategies on November 21, The comments received from the City Council on the first presentation (July 18, 2011) were addressed in a subsequent memo submitted to the City on July 27, 2011, and the comments received in the final presentation (November 21, 2011) are addressed in this final report. The submittal of this final report completes all the tasks outlined for the El Cerrito Parking Study. This report presents the findings of this effort in the following order: Existing Parking Conditions Best Practice Examples Estimation of TOD Parking Needs and Recommendations for Parking Requirements Recommended Parking Management Strategies 2.0 EXISTING PARKING CONDITIONS This section presents the existing parking occupancy conditions in the El Cerrito Parking Study area. 2.1 Methodology The parking survey includes parking supply, occupancy, and duration. The survey was conducted on Thursday, May 19, 2011 and on Saturday, May 21, The weather was fine and dry during this period. The parking survey area comprised three sub-areas, as shown in Figure 1. They include the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station Area (del Norte Station Area), San Pablo Avenue Midtown, and El Cerrito Plaza BART Station Area (Plaza Station Area). The parking survey includes both on-street and off-street parking facilities in each sub-area. The on-street parking spaces included all curb-spaces where parking is legally permitted. Since there is no striping on the street to delineate on-street parking spaces, the number of on-street parking spaces was estimated by dividing total linear feet between curb cuts by 22 feet. This is consistent with the dimension used by the Page 5 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

8 City of El Cerrito and most local jurisdictions for each metered parking space. 1 The off-street parking survey includes the BART parking facilities and all private parking lots within the survey area, except those that are gated. In addition, a parking duration survey was conducted in the del Norte Station Area and the Plaza Station Area in order to assess potential BART commuter parking spillover conditions in the area. The survey periods are summarized in Table 1. Data collection for the del Norte Station Area is more extensive than the other two sub-areas (e.g., including parking occupancy rates for six different times of the day instead of just around noon time), to respond to requirements of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission Technical Assistance Grant for the TOD study.

10 2.2 Survey Findings This section presents parking survey findings. It includes three sub-sections, one for each sub-area. Each subsection presents on-street parking survey results first, and then off-street parking survey results. The raw survey data are included in Appendix I El Cerrito del Norte BART Station Area The del Norte Station Study Area is defined as an area within a quarter mile of the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station, bounded by Wall Avenue to the north, I-80 to the west, Potrero Avenue to the south, and Elm Street and Junction Boulevard to the east. 2 Land uses in this sub-area include big box retail developments (e.g. Walgreens, Staples and Orchard Supply Hardware) and fast food stores on the west side of San Pablo Avenue, and the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station, BART parking lots, and a BART garage between San Pablo Avenue and the BART tracks on the east side. The area east of the BART tracks is predominantly single-family residential homes. The majority of residential streets in the del Norte Station Area are within a Residential Permit Parking (RPP) zone with a 4-hour parking time restriction. In general, the City designates one side of the street as a RPP zone with 4-hour time restriction and the other side of the street is available for public parking without time restrictions. Residential parking permits at $6 per year are available to eligible households 3 on both the posted and non-posted sides of the street. The maximum number of permits per residence is four. The City enforces RPP between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appendix II includes the map of RPP zones with 4-hour parking time restriction in this sub-area. On-Street Parking Table 2 presents the parking supply and occupancy results for each street in this sub-area. It shows the Del Norte Station Area has 640 on-street parking spaces. Of these spaces, approximately 10 percent (68 spaces) are on the west side of San Pablo Avenue, and 90 percent (572 spaces) are on the east side of San Pablo Avenue. The average weekday parking occupancy rates 4 ranged from 15 percent (at midnight) to 74 percent (at 11:00 a.m.) on the west side of San Pablo Avenue. The average weekday parking occupancy rates on the east side of San Pablo Avenue range from 41 percent (at midnight) to 61 percent (at noon). On weekends, the on-street parking occupancy rates were generally lower than on weekdays; generally no more than 50 percent of the on-street parking spaces were occupied. The average occupancy rate for streets on the west side of San Pablo Avenue is relatively low, less than 74 percent during the peak hour on weekdays and less than 50 percent during a weekend midday. Approximately half of the on-street parking spaces in this area is along San Pablo Avenue (i.e., 32 out of 68 spaces), and the occupancy rate along San Pablo Avenue is extremely low, less than 35 percent during the weekday and less than 50 percent during the weekend. Table 2 shows parking occupancy rates are over 100 percent along Knott Avenue and Eastshore Boulevard. Parking occupancy above 100 percent indicates that several compact-size vehicles are parked close to each other along the curb in spaces that 2 A quarter mile or 1,200 feet is considered a reasonable walking distance from a rail transit station. 3 Residents who live in a four-hour parking zone (near the El Cerrito del Norte and Plaza BART stations or some streets in west El Cerrito) are eligible to apply for RPP that exempt their vehicles from the parking restrictions. 4 An average occupancy rate noted in this report represents the total occupancy rate for an aggregated area at a specific time.

11 are shorter than the typical length of 22 feet space per vehicle. No double parking or other illegal parking was observed at these locations. 5 The average parking occupancy rate on the east side of San Pablo Avenue is moderately or marginally higher (low- to mid-70 percent range) than on the west side during a weekday midday. However, parking occupancy is substantially lower on weekends, in the low 30 percent range. While the overall average parking occupancy rate is moderate, the midday peak-hour parking occupancy rate is very high along several block faces in the vicinity of the BART station area (Figure 2).

Table 3 summarizes the parking occupancy rates for RPP zones and non-rpp zones. It shows that the block faces with time restrictions (in RPP zones) showed substantially lower parking occupancy rates than the other side of the street, which usually has no time restrictions. Some street segments located within non-rpp zones, but with a time restriction (e.g., Knott Avenue San Pablo and Kearney Avenues) also showed low parking occupancy rates. This indicates that potential commuter parking spillover is occurring within residential areas where there are no time restrictions. 5 An additional field visit on Thursday June 23, 2011 confirmed the parking occupancy above capacity at these locations.

14 On-Street Parking Duration A parking duration survey was conducted along San Pablo Avenue between Wall Avenue and Potrero Avenue in order to determine parking duration and to assess whether employee or commuter parking spillover occurred. 6 San Pablo Avenue is not within RPP zones; however, portions of the street in the study area have 2-hour or 4-hour time limits (see Table 4). The parking duration survey included recording the last four digits of vehicle license plate numbers every 30 minutes from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The results of the weekday parking duration surveys are summarized in Table 4. It shows that the majority (85 percent) of vehicles on San Pablo Avenue stayed no more than the allowed time limit. And less than 15 percent of vehicles (7 out of 52 cars) stayed past the time limit. This suggests that the majority of these on-street parking spaces are used to serve the adjacent businesses, and less than 15 percent of parked cars could potentially belong to employees or commuters.

Illegal parking beyond the posted time limit is highlighted. 2. There are five parking spaces on the west side of San Pablo Avenue between Knott Avenue and Cutting Boulevard, but no vehicles parked during the survey period. Off-Street Parking There are 21 parking lots and one garage within this sub-area, including four BART parking lots and one BART garage, with a total of 2,858 parking spaces. The survey did not include the old Target site, where a Safeway with 279 parking spaces was under construction. This site is included only for information purposes. Table 5 summarizes parking occupancy rates for the off-street parking facilities in the del Norte Station Area. The BART parking lots and the garage were almost full, at approximately 95 percent occupancy rate, throughout the day on weekdays 78. The parking lots serving the retail uses on the west side of San Pablo Avenue had much lower occupancy rates, except McDonald s and a Honda Dealer: less than 42 percent on average. This indicates that there are ample off-street parking spaces serving both employees and customers, and, thus, it is unlikely that employee parking demand occurred on the street. 6 Parking duration survey was conducted along San Pablo Avenue because the neighboring businesses have raised a concern over potential parking spillover problems in the area. 7 El Cerrito Del Norte BART Station has Monthly Reserved, Single Day Reserved, Daily $1 Fee Parking, Extended Weekend, Carpool, and Long-Term parking. 8 An 85 percent occupancy rate is usually used as the threshold to determine whether a parking facility is at its effective capacity. Beyond this threshold, drivers must drive around to find a parking space. El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011 Page 12

17 2.2.2 San Pablo Avenue Midtown The San Pablo Avenue Midtown section survey area includes San Pablo Avenue and parts of Kearney Street between Potrero Avenue in the north and Lincoln Avenue in the south, approximately 1.3 miles. San Pablo Avenue is known as the City of El Cerrito s Main Street and has a variety of businesses, including restaurants, medical offices, convenience stores, apparel stores, used car shops, and others. The Civic Center is also situated on San Pablo Avenue at the intersection with Manila Avenue. The parking survey in this sub-area was conducted around 12:00 p.m., which is considered the peak hour for many businesses, on a weekday and a weekend day, On-Street Parking There are 661 on-street parking spaces in this sub-area. Of these spaces, 25 percent (163 spaces) are on the west side of San Pablo Avenue, and 75 percent (498 spaces) are on the east side of San Pablo Avenue and along Kearney Street. Table 6 summarizes the midday on-street parking occupancy rates for each street segment in the sub-area. Figure 4 presents the weekday midday on-street parking occupancy conditions. The average occupancy rate in this sub-area is generally very low, with the exception of Kearney Street between Potrero and Madison Avenue. The occupancy rate on this section of Kearney Street is at 109 percent. The adjacent land uses include an elementary school and light industrial uses.

19 Off-Street Parking There are 51 parking lots within the sub-area with a total of 1,624 parking spaces. Table 7 presents the average off-street parking occupancy rates by street segment during the weekday midday. Figure 5 presents the locations of these parking facilities and their weekday occupancy rates. The occupancy rate is the aggregated number of all off-street parking facilities by each street segment; the parking occupancy rate for each individual facility is presented in Appendix I. In general, occupancy rates for the off-street parking lots in this sub-area is very low: 50 to 52 percent on the west side of San Pablo Avenue during weekdays and weekends respectively, and 42 to 38 percent on the east side of San Pablo Avenue during weekdays and weekends respectively.

21 2.2.3 El Cerrito Plaza BART Station Area Like the del Norte Station Area, the Plaza Station Area is also defined as a quarter mile from the El Cerrito Plaza BART Station, bounded by Lincoln Avenue to the north, San Pablo Avenue to the west, the City Limit to the south, and Norvell Street and Behrens Street to the east. Land use east of the BART tracks is predominantly single-family residential houses. West of the BART tracks and south of Fairmount Avenue is the El Cerrito Plaza shopping mall, which includes approximately 350,000 square feet of commercial developments (including Bed Bath & Beyond, JoAnn Fabrics, Lucky Stores, Trader Joe s, etc) and 1,318 surface parking spaces. The area north of Fairmount Avenue largely consists of multi-family buildings and some single family houses. On the western borders of the survey area and along San Pablo Avenue there are mostly small- to medium-size retail businesses. The majority of the residential streets in this area have a 4-hour parking restriction. Appendix II includes a map of the RPP zone with a 4-hour parking time restriction in this area. The parking survey in this sub-area was conducted around 12:00 p.m., which is considered the peak hour for many businesses, on a weekday and a weekend day. On-Street Parking There are 1,051 on-street parking spaces in the sub-area. Of these spaces, 43 percent (429 spaces) are designated as the RPP zone and 57 percent (622 spaces) are available for public parking with no time restriction. Table 8 summarizes the parking occupancy rates for each street in this sub-area. Figure 6 presents the Plaza Station Area and the weekday on-street parking conditions. As shown in Table 8, the overall on-street parking occupancy rate in this sub-area is generally very low in the RPP zone, but moderately high in the non-rpp zone during midday on a weekday. On weekends, the on-street parking occupancy rates were generally very low, averaging 56 percent or less. The highest midday parking occupancy occurred on the east side of Liberty Street (112 percent occupancy rate) followed by the west side of Richmond Street (103 percent occupancy rate). Both Liberty Street and Richmond Street run adjacent to the BART parking lots, and these block spaces currently have no time restriction. On the other hand, the midday parking occupancy rates on the opposite side of Liberty Street and Richmond Street, where there are no time restrictions, were substantially lower (slightly more than 50 percent). At the request of City staff, CHS Consulting Group conducted a second parking surveys at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday July 14 th and Saturday July 16 th on San Pablo Avenue between Lincoln and Fairmount Avenues, in order to capture the midday parking demand generated by the Cerrito Theater, which has matinee shows typically starting at 1:30 p.m. The parking occupancy rates observed at 2:00 p.m. were slightly lower than those observed at 12:00 p.m. 9 This indicates that the theater operation has little impact on the parking demand generation in this area. 9 The area was 56 percent occupied at 2:00 p.m., as compared to 68 percent at 12:00 p.m. on a weekday, and the area was 63 percent occupied at 2:00 p.m. as compared to 65 percent at 12:00 p.m. on a weekend.

24 On-Street Parking Duration A parking duration survey was conducted in the residential streets east of the BART tracks. The last four digits of vehicle license plate numbers were recorded at 8:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m., and at 4:00 p.m. The results of the weekday parking duration survey are summarized in Table 9. Of the 262 cars that parked at 8:00 a.m., about 30 percent (79 vehicles) parked for less than five hours and about 60 percent (183 vehicles) parked over eight hours, past 4 p.m. Similarly, of the total 111 cars that arrived and parked between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., about 33 percent (37 cars) parked less than three hours and nearly 67 percent (74 vehicles) parked over three hours, past 4:00 p.m. These survey results suggest that a substantial portion (approximately 58 to 67 percent) of on-street parking spaces may be used by the commuters for their long-term parking needs.

25 Off-Street Parking There are 29 parking lots within the Plaza Station Area, including three BART parking lots, with a total of 2,679 parking spaces. Table 10 summarizes the weekday and weekend midday parking occupancy rates for each parking lot in this sub-area. The locations of these parking facilities and their weekday midday occupancy conditions are presented in Figure 7. Overall, the average midday parking occupancy rates are low both east and west of San Pablo Avenue and during weekday and weekend midday hours. However, off-street parking occupancy rates varied widely depending on the business(es) the parking lot serves. The three BART parking lots have the highest weekday parking occupancy rate, at 100 percent. The Peet s Coffee & Tea parking lot and the Sunrise Cleaners parking lot (which is shared with several other businesses) also showed occupancy rates above 90 percent. On weekends, the BART parking occupancy rate is substantially lower than on a weekday. The parking occupancy rate at the El Cerrito Plaza shopping center was higher on weekends (81 percent) than on weekdays (58 percent).

27 2.3 Conclusions Based on the surveys conducted for this study, the following is a summary of key findings: The BART parking facilities in both El Cerrito del Norte and El Cerrito Plaza Stations operate at their full capacity during the weekday periods; however, these parking facilities are only 20 to 30 percent full on weekends. It is evident that BART commuters are using the residential streets in the vicinity of the El Cerrito Plaza BART Station. In the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station Area, the weekday midday parking occupancy was substantially higher in the street segments where there are no time restrictions. This indicates that potential commuter parking spillover may be occurring in the sub-area. If resident concerns rise, a detailed vehicle duration study along residential streets may be warranted. In the vicinity of the two BART stations, the weekday midday parking occupancy tends to be substantially higher in the street segments without time restriction than those within RPP zones with 4-hour time restrictions. However, the overall on-street parking occupancy remains fairly low in both sub-areas. During the weekday periods, except for the BART parking facilities, there is a sufficient number of on-street and off-street parking spaces to meet parking demand in each survey area. The survey shows there are several underutilized parking spaces along San Pablo Avenue. (e.g. Moeser Lane Shopping Mall, El Cerrito DMV, and Big 5 parking lots). The overall parking occupancy rates for all three sub-areas are generally low. This may reflect current economic conditions. This situation will be assessed in the next step of the parking study.

28 3.0 BEST PRACTICE EXAMPLES Given the strong emphasis placed on TODs in many states since 1990s, several jurisdictions across the U.S. have successfully implemented or are in the process of implementing TODs near transit centers. Innovative parking management strategies and parking policies have played a vital role for the success of these TODs. CHS Consulting selected six different cities with successful TODs and reviewed their transportation and parking management strategies. These cities include the Cities of Hayward, Oakland, Mountain View, and Redwood City in Northern California, the City of Pasadena in Southern California, and the City of Portland in Oregon. The majority of these cities (four out of six) were selected from the San Francisco Bay Area for the purpose of this study, as understanding the feasibility of parking and transportation policies and their application are highly dependent on the context of settings and specific site characteristics, such as the type of transit services provided in the TOD, land use density, and etc. Like El Cerrito, all four cities from the San Francisco Bay Area are served by heavy rail (i.e., Bay Area Rapid Transit or Caltrain) and local bus systems, and they have implemented or are in the process of implementing TOD projects near transit centers. In addition, the cities of Pasadena in Southern California and Portland in Oregon are considered because they have developed some of the nation s most creative techniques for managing parking and traffic in their TODs. These cities have adopted a total of 26 transportation and parking management strategies (Table 11). All six cities have reduced parking requirements for TODs and also provide shared parking provisions. The second tier strategies that many (but not all) of these cities have adopted include parking pricing, in-lieu parking fees, parking benefits districts, and maximum parking requirements. Each of these strategies was presented to the El Cerrito City Council on July 18, 2011, and they are also included in Appendix III. Page 26 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

30 4.0 DEVELOPMENT OF PARKING REQUIREMENTS This section summarizes the evaluation of future parking demand and suggestions for parking requirements for TOD projects in El Cerrito. 4.1 Considerations For the consideration of future parking requirements, CHS Consulting tested parking rates from five different sources, including the City of El Cerrito s existing parking code provisions, inputs from local developers, outputs from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission s (MTC) Smart Growth Parking Demand Model, national average of parking demands, and the best practice examples from eight different cities with successful TOD projects across the United States. A. Existing City Codes Under the current zoning codes, the City of El Cerrito requires a new development to provide a minimum number of required parking spaces for each land use on the project site. Multifamily residential developments are required to provide one parking space for each studio or 1-bedroom unit. Dwelling units with two or more bedrooms are required to provide a minimum of two parking spaces per unit in RD (Duplex Residential), RM (Multi-Family Residential), and CC (Community Commercial) zones and 1.5 parking spaces in TOM (Transit-Oriented Mixed Use) zones. Business services and retail sales are required to provide one parking space for every 300 square feet (sq. ft.) of gross floor area. These parking requirements can be reduced by 25 percent, if any portion of a lot is located within onequarter mile of a BART station. Moreover, additional parking reductions may be allowed by an approved shared parking arrangement, which allows parking spaces to be shared by multiple land uses with different peak hours of parking demand. The City of El Cerrito and AECOM have collaboratively selected ten development sites within four different study areas Del Norte, Midtown, Plaza North and El Cerrito Plaza. Development sites in Del Norte, Midtown and El Cerrito Plaza are zoned as TOM, and the development sites in Plaza North are zoned as CC. In addition, the development sites in Del Norte and El Cerrito Plaza are located within a quarter mile distance of a BART Station, qualifying for an additional 25 percent reduction in parking requirements. Table 12 summarizes the parking requirements for each study area. Table 12 City of El Cerrito s Existing Parking Codes Del Norte Midtown Plaza North Plaza Studio/1-bed Multi-Family bed Multi-Family Retail Office Source: El Cerrito Zoning Codes Chapter Off-Street Parking and Loading B. Developer s Interview As part of their market analysis, AECOM conducted interviews with four developers with local experience and knowledge: BRE Properties, Simeon Properties, Blake Hunt and Center Street Housing, and Matteson Development. These developers provided inputs on their perceived parking needs for each Page 28 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

31 study area. They indicated that, based on the proximity to BART Stations and other transit services, multi-family residential developments in the Del Norte area would need 1.35 parking spaces per unit, and those in the El Cerrito Plaza study area would need 1.5 parking spaces per unit. For the Midtown and the Plaza North study areas, they indicated two (2) parking spaces would be needed for each dwelling unit (or 1.5 spaces for live-work townhouse), because these areas are neither pedestrian/bike nor transit friendly: residents who commute by transit would still need a car for shopping and running errands. It is also anticipated that some 2-bedroom units would have two individuals living together, and this would require more than one parking space per unit. Table 13 summarizes the developers inputs on parking requirements. These rates are higher than the City s existing parking requirements by approximately 30 percent. Table 13 Parking Requirements from Developers Interviews Del Norte Midtown Plaza North Plaza Residential Live-work Townhouse 1.5 Source: Developer interviews, AECOM, 2011 C. MTC s Smart Growth Parking Demand Model The MTC s Smart Growth Parking Demand Model estimates the number of parking spaces required for an individual land use, incorporating factors such as the availability and accessibility of alternative modes of transportation, the peak time of use, and the ability to share parking. The model inputs a base parking demand rate which is developed for each land use category based on standard industry sources such as the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), Urban Land Institute (ULI), and the other parking studies done in the San Francisco Bay Area. Then these rates were subsequently reduced by 1) mode split factors to account for trips made by residents and visitors who walk, bike or use public transit to reach their destination; 2) peak demand factors to capture the level of parking demand on a weekday midday period as opposed to the peak of daily demand; and 3) shared parking factors to address potential park-once opportunities facilitated by various land uses located in close proximity to each other. In order to account for distinct travel patterns associated with transit amenities and land use patterns within each study area, parking demand rates were developed for each area: del Norte, Midtown, Plaza North, and El Cerrito Plaza. The resulting parking demand rates were closely validated to match the parking data collected by CHS Consulting in May 2011, assuming the total number of observed cars parked on the street and in parking lots and garages represent the total demand for the study area land uses on a weekday midday period. Understanding that current economic conditions associated with the recent recession may not be representative of the typical conditions, it was assumed that the existing parking utilization is approximately 85 percent of what the study area can expect under stronger and more vibrant economic conditions 10. Table 14 presents the summary of resulting parking demand rates for each study area. These rates are lower than the City s existing parking requirements by approximately 15 percent for residential uses and by approximately 35 percent for retail and office uses. 10 It should be noted that the parking demand rates for retail in the Midtown and Plaza North areas showed lower rates than more transit-oriented Del Norte and El Cerrito Plaza study areas due to low parking occupancy; therefore, these rates were manually adjusted to match the level of demand in the Del Norte and the El Cerrito Plaza areas.

32 Table 14 MTC Smart Growth Parking Demand Model Del Norte Midtown Plaza North Plaza Residential Retail Office Source: MTC Smart Growth Parking Demand Model, Wilbur Smith, 2007; CHS Consulting Group, 2011 D. National Average The ITE Parking Generation 3 rd Edition provides a national average of parking generation rates for different land uses based on sample surveys in suburban and urban locations. High-Rise Apartments in Central City, which typically have five or more levels (Land Use Code 222), require 1.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit. Residential Condominium/Townhouses in suburban settings (Land Use Code 230) require 1.7 parking spaces per dwelling unit. Office buildings in suburban locations require 3.4 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of floor area, and those in urban locations require 3 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of floor area (Land Use Code 701). Retail uses need 3.2 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of floor area on weekday periods in non-december months (Land Use Code 820). The parking demand for retail increases to 5.9 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of floor area on Saturdays in December. Table 15 presents the summary of these parking demand rates. It is noted that for the purpose of the El Cerrito Parking Study, the rates from urban locations (by national standard) are more comparable to El Cerrito; typical suburban locations in the U.S. have much lower density than the City of El Cerrito. These rates are higher than the City s existing parking requirements by approximately 25 percent for residential uses and by approximately 10 percent for retail and office uses. Table 15 National Average of Parking Demand Rates Suburban Urban Residential Office Non-December Weekday December Saturday Retail Source: ITE Parking Generation 3rd Edition E. Best Practices Examples As part of Task 1 of the El Cerrito del Norte BART Station TOD Study and the San Pablo Avenue Development Feasibility Study, CHS Consulting Group conducted research on best practice examples of different cities with successful TODs. These cities include Berkeley, Oakland, Hayward, Union City, Mountain View, Redwood City, Pasadena, and Portland. Table 16 presents the minimum parking requirements each of these cities has adopted for TODs. It should be noted that the City of Pasadena set the maximum parking requirements at the same rates as the minimum requirements, and Redwood City s maximum parking requirements are twice their minimum requirements. In Portland, for most commercial office developments served by transit, the maximum parking ratio is 3.4 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. Lloyd District (in Portland) supported this policy by even lowering its maximum ratio to 2 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. Page 30 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

The results of these tests were used by AECOM to test economic viability of the proposed land developments at the ten opportunity sites and were used in a dialogue with the City staff to determine what types of modifications to the current parking requirements may be appropriate for City s action. Scenario #1: Based on City s Existing Code Requirements The first scenario is based on the City s existing parking code requirements. These rates (Table 17) are identical to those presented in Table 12 above and are presented for comparison purposes. Table 17 Parking Rates Scenario #1 Del Norte Midtown Plaza North Plaza Studio/1-bed Multi-Family bed Multi-Family Retail Office Source: El Cerrito Zoning Codes Chapter Off-Street Parking and Loading Scenario #2: Based on City s Existing Code Requirements and Developers Interviews Scenario #2 combines the City s existing code provisions for studio, 1-bedroom residential units, and retail and office uses, with the developers inputs on dwelling units with two or more bedrooms (Table 13). It should be noted that during the interviews, the developers provided parking demand rates for residential uses only and did not provide inputs for retail or office uses. Moreover, the developers did not differentiate parking ratios for studio/1-bedroom units and two or more bedroom units. Therefore, for the purpose of this analysis it is assumed that the developers inputs are for dwelling units with two or more bedrooms. Page 31 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

Parking requirements for residential uses in the Del Norte and the El Cerrito Plaza areas are obtained from the City of Oakland s and Redwood City s parking provisions (stated above). Two or more bedroom units in the Midtown and the Plaza North are obtained from the City of Hayward s parking code provisions for residential development in the Downtown Core Area Specific Plan Area (1 space per unit). Parking codes for retail and office uses are obtained from the City of Berkeley s parking requirements in the Central Commercial District. These rates are summarized in Table 20.

35 4.3 Future Parking Supply Estimations Based on the four scenarios presented above and the land use development programs proposed by AECOM, CHS Consulting estimated future parking supply for each study area. AECOM proposed multiple scenarios with varying densities in each project site. Tables 21 and 22 present summaries of parking supply estimation for the minimum-density and the maximum-density scenarios, respectively, using the parking ratios developed under four scenarios above.

Under Scenario #2, which uses the rates suggested by developers, the total required parking spaces would increase by six to seven percent (284 to 393 spaces depending on the scenario) compared to the existing code provision. Under Scenario #3, which uses the rates from MTC s Smart Growth Parking Demand Model, the total required parking spaces would be reduced by more than 20 percent (801 to 1,341 spaces depending on the scenario) compared to the existing code provision. Lastly, under Scenario #4, which uses one of the most aggressive parking rates adopted in other cities, the total required parking spaces would be reduced by more than 40 percent (1,617 to 2,622 spaces depending on the scenario) compared to the existing code provision.

Scenario #3 would cause a reduction of future parking supply by approximately 20 percent. Parking requirements under scenario #3 are considered more aggressive, but more sustainable than the existing parking codes. With the provision of these parking requirements, it is anticipated that average parking occupancy rates at the new parking facilities would not be substantially higher or closer to 85 percent, than we see today, and these requirements will not cause significant parking impacts. In addition, the City may consider even more aggressive parking requirements, such as in those tested in Scenario #4, in the future, if the results of implementing scenario #3 are positive and effective. While the recommended parking requirements are intended to be the minimum requirements 11, it is important that the City of El Cerrito adopt supporting policies which further aim to reduce parking foot prints. These policies and parking strategies should provide a combination of incentives to take alternative modes of transportation, and disincentives to own, drive, and park a car. Options include, but 11 CHS Consulting initially proposed to set maximum parking requirements; however, city staff has indicated that implementing parking maximums may not be feasible in El Cerrito at the present time. Page 34 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

37 are not limited to, setting the maximum parking requirements (or at a minimum a criterion for allowing developers to provide more than the code requirement), providing unbundled parking, increasing bike parking requirements, implementing TDM programs, allowing parking requirements to be met off-site (in-lieu parking), etc. These policies and strategies will be further discussed in the next phase of the study, Development of Parking Strategies. Page 35 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

38 5.0 PARKING MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES AND EXAMPLES While the suggested parking ratios would significantly reduce parking supply for future developments compared to the existing code provisions, it is important that the City of El Cerrito adopts supporting policies which aim to reduce parking demand so that reducing parking supply would not cause parking impacts. CHS Consulting recommends the following 15 parking management strategies for consideration. Each of these strategies is discussed in detail below, and they are summarized in Table 24 with recommendations for priority for action and their effectiveness. These management strategies are recommended to accomplish the following goals: 1 Reduce parking demand for the new land developments; 2 Reduce parking impacts and demand near the BART stations and adjacent neighborhoods. 5.1 Unbundle Parking Description: Unbundle Parking means that parking spaces are rented or sold separately from building space so occupants only pay for the parking they actually need. Developers can make some or all parking optional when selling dwelling and or retail/office units. Informal unbundling can also be encouraged by helping to create a secondary market for available spaces. Potential Benefits: Increase housing affordability for those who do not need or want parking spaces; discourage car ownership, could potentially provide surplus parking to BART patrons. Potential Costs: Incur administration costs; could potentially cause parking spillover problems in the area if free on-street parking is available nearby. Feasibility: This strategy may affect the marketability of residential units without parking; however, effective marketing on lower housing costs and an easy access to carsharing services and other transitfriendly amenities would likely offset its costs. Examples: In keeping with the city s Transit First Policy, the City of San Francisco has enacted unbundled parking requirements in several neighborhoods such as in Rincon Hill, and the Market/Octavia neighborhood. The Rincon Hill Area Plan, adopted in 2005, requires off-street parking space to be sold or rented separately from residential units and commercial spaces for the life of a dwelling or commercial space. Similarly, the Market/Octavia Area Plan which was enacted in 2007 requires that parking costs should be transparent and disaggregated from residential or commercial rents. Moreover, in an effort to further expand these unbundled parking policies, in 2008 the City of San Francisco required all residential developments with 10 or more dwelling units in DRT, C-03, RTO and NCT districts to unbundle parking cots from housing costs. Redwood City also requires multi-family residential buildings or complexes with fewer parking spaces than dwelling units to lease or sell its parking spaces separately from the rental or purchase fees for dwelling units for the life of the dwelling units.

39 Hour Paid Parking Description: The majority of residential streets in the El Cerrito del Norte and the El Cerrito Plaza BART station areas are within a RPP zone with a four-hour parking time restriction. In general, the City designates one side of the streets as a RPP zone with 4-hour time restriction and the other side of street is available for public parking without limitation. Parking survey results indicate that the parking occupancy in non-rpp zones is significantly higher (86 percent) than those in RPP zones (49%), indicating that commuters are using the residential streets (in non-rpp zones) for free without any time restriction. In particular, the curb spaces surrounding the BART station, which does not have any time limit, is occupied at 100 percent. In order to discourage BART commuters from parking their cars on the street, the City should consider at least charging these commuters at the same rate as they pay at the BART parking facilities by installing 10-hour paid parking in the on-street parking spaces immediately surrounding the BART station and potentially in non-rpp parking spaces in the residential areas near each BART station. On-street parking fees should be established to maintain 85 percent occupancy at all times. In addition, the on-street parking spaces fronting commercial uses along Fairmount Avenue near the El Cerrito Plaza BART station should be made available for the shoppers at all times by restricting parking duration and or increasing hourly parking rate. Potential Benefits: Generates additional revenue to the City to pay for enforcement costs and other parking strategies; retains on-street parking capacity for BART patrons. Potential Costs: Capital costs for meters and maintenance and enforcement costs; cause inconvenience to the affected residents. Feasibility: There are currently 615 parking spaces in the non-rpp zones. Converting these spaces into a 10-hour meter zone would generate additional revenue of up to $263,000 a year for the City from parking revenue alone (not including citations). The City may use this revenue to pay for other parking strategies. It is likely that the enforcement costs are to be paid by citations. Examples: The MacArthur BART Station Transit Village project in the City of Oakland would replace the existing 618-space surface BART parking lot with 675 new residential units and up to 49,000 square feet of neighborhood-serving retail and commercial uses. The project would provide a total of 1,000 structured parking spaces, of which 300 spaces would be reserved for BART patrons and 700 spaces would be reserved for residents and commercial uses. As a result, the BART patrons would face a loss of up to 318 parking spaces due to this project. In order to accommodate additional BART patrons parking, the City is considering providing approximately forty 10-hour metered parking spaces on the streets immediately adjacent to the station. This strategy is expected to provide additional parking supply for BART patrons and a significant revenue stream to the City that could be used for improvements in the neighborhood.

40 5.3 Charge BART Patrons for On-Street Parking via Permit Description: This strategy recommends that, as an alternative to installing 10-hour parking meters in non- RPP zones (Section 4.6), the City may consider converting all residential streets into a permit-required parking zone. This would require BART patrons, who currently park for free in non-rpp zones, to pay for their fair share of parking fees. Number of permits issued should not cause average midday peak occupancy to exceed 85 percent. Potential Benefits: Generates additional revenue (through paid parking and citations) to the City to pay for enforcement costs and other parking strategies; retains (or increases) on-street parking capacity for BART patrons; potential impacts on residents would be minimal on weekdays. Potential Costs: Administration costs, and enforcement costs. Feasibility: There are currently 615 parking spaces in non-rpp zones. By requiring a purchase of monthly permit to park on these streets (e.g., $84 per month), the City may generate an additional revenue of up to $527,000 a year. 5.4 Increase BART Parking Fees Description: BART currently charges $1 a day or $42 a month for parking. These rates should be increased to $2 and $84 in the near future, respectively. The existing daily parking rate ($1) is significantly lower than the market-rate of $10 a day charged in the adjacent private parking lot at the El Cerrito del Norte Station. With the increase of the daily parking fee to $2, the monthly permit fee should be increased as well in order to encourage BART patrons to purchase daily permits, instead of monthly permits which induce more driving. The monthly parking fee can be raised up to $84 a month. Potential Benefits: Generate additional revenue to BART, which can be used to support other parking strategies (e.g., free carpool parking, attended parking); discourage Single Occupancy Vehicle (SOV) usage. Potential Costs: Could shift some BART patrons to other stations such as Richmond, which offers free parking. Feasibility: This strategy would generate additional revenue of up to $384,000 a year for BART. However, the strategy would require a two-thirds vote from the BART Board. Initial conversation with BART staff indicated this would not be unreasonable. Examples: A daily parking fee of $2 is charged at major e BART stations such as the Daly City, tsouth San Francisco, San Bruno, Millbrae, and Colma BART stations. A monthly permit parking fee of $63 is offered at the Castro Valley, Ashby, Fruitvale, Pleasant Hill, and Dublin BART stations. In addition, the Lake Merritt, MacArthur, and Rockridge BART stations offer monthly a parking fee of $84 a month. Page 38 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

41 5.5 Establish A Joint Powers Association Description: A Joint Powers Association (JPA) would comprise representatives from the City of El Cerrito and BART. Through the formation of a JPA, the City and BART would collectively implement parking management strategies on BART and the City properties, decide on parking rates, collect parking revenues, and conduct enforcement. The revenues collected through the JPA would be used to enhance patron access to BART stations and to pay for parking management costs. Potential Benefits: Efficient management of on-street and off-street parking revenues and enforcement activities. Potential Costs: Incur administration costs. 5.6 Allow On-Street Parking to Meet Off-Street Parking Requirements Description: The parking survey results show that most on-street parking spaces in El Cerrito, except for those around the two BART stations, are substantially underutilized with an average occupancy rate of 40 percent. In order to maximize on-street parking utilization and minimize additional off-street parking spaces on project sites, on-street parking supply may be counted toward the total parking requirements on the site. This strategy would allow commercial developers who wish to not provide the minimum required parking spaces to claim adjacent on-street parking spaces. The spaces may be offered for free or in exchange for a set of contributions fees to the City. This program is similar to an in-lieu parking program in that that it allows developers to substitute the required off-street parking with on-street parking spaces in exchange for a fee. Potential Benefits: Efficient use of on-street parking spaces; reduce parking foot prints; generate potential revenue from (in-lieu) parking fees from developers for the use of on-street parking spaces. Potential Costs: Administration costs. Feasibility: Most of the City s existing on-street parking spaces are significantly underutilized except for the areas near the two BART stations. Therefore, this strategy would be effective for the developments in the San Pablo Avenue Midtown area, where the average on-street parking occupancy is very low. Implementation of supporting parking management strategies such as carsharing services, innovative bike-friendly site design, and increased bicycle parking requirements would enhance the feasibility. Examples: Redwood City requires developments in designated areas in Downtown to provide new streets where they are needed to improve pedestrian and bike access, as well as to distribute automobile trips in an efficient manner. In return, the City allows new on-street parking spaces provided on these new streets to be counted toward the minimum parking requirements for the adjacent property.

42 5.7 CarShare Services Description: Carsharing services provide a fleet of vehicles available to members of a carsharing group. A membership fee costs approximately $50 to $100 a year, and the rental rates are based on a per-hour ($5 to $10 a hour) or per-mile basis (e.g., $0.35 per mile). The rental rates typically include insurance, fuel, and maintenance costs. A group membership to carshare services could be offered to all future TOD residents, free or paid by a portion of HOA dues or by the developer. As supporting strategies, BART and the City should provide carshare pods in a convenient walking distance from TODs, most likely in the BART parking lots, to discourage car ownership for residents and to allow BART patrons to use them for the remaining leg of their trip. Currently, there are three carshare pods are available in the El Cerrito Plaza BART station parking lot and none in the El Cerrito del Norte BART station. Depending on the projected demand in the future TODs, the number of carshare service could be expanded in both BART stations and other parts of the City. Potential Benefits: Discourage car ownership and usage; help ensure the success of unbundled parking strategy. Potential Costs: Depending on the number of carshare pods to be provided in each BART station parking lot, there would be a minimal loss of BART parking spaces. Feasibility: A group membership to carshare services could be offered to all residents free or at a substantially discounted price. The TMA could negotiate the terms with carshare service providers. 5.8 Bicycle and Pedestrian-Friendly Site Design and Aggressive Bicycle Parking Requirements Description: Project sites are situated in close proximity (some are immediately adjacent) to the Ohlone Greenway, a Class III designated bike path. An innovative site design that allows convenient and safe bike and pedestrian access from the Ohlone Greenway to the project site (e.g., sufficient lighting and improved streetscapes) would encourage walking and bike usage. In addition, the City may consider adopting more aggressive bicycle parking requirements. The City's current planning code requires 1 bicycle parking space to be provided for every 4 housing units (longterm) and 1 bicycle parking space for every 20 housing units (short-term). These bicycle parking requirements could be increased to promote enhanced bike amenities on the project site (e.g., 1 per 2 housing units). Potential Benefits: Provide convenient access via bike or walking. Potential Costs: None. Feasibility: More effective when combined with aggressive bike parking requirements to enable shuffling as needed during off-peak hours and upon patron return. Page 40 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

43 5.9 Credit Bicycle and Motorcycle Parking Description: Bicycle parking spaces may be counted toward the off-street parking requirements. Potential Benefits: Reduce vehicle footprints and encourage bicycle usage. Potential Costs: None. Feasibility: This strategy is more effective when combined with innovative, bicycle-friendly site design which promotes bicycle usage (Section 4.13). Example: The City of Hayward provides a credit for 1 vehicle parking space in exchange for each 4 bicycle spaces or 2 motorcycle parking spaces provided Transportation Demand Management Programs Description: Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programs are designed to reduce the number of vehicle trips generated. TDM programs emphasize alternative commuting options, such as public transit, private shuttle services, biking, walking, and carpooling. A designated TDM coordinator would be in charge of helping people plan their trips using alternative modes of transportation, coordinating with and promoting 511 Regional Rideshare, promoting TDM programs, etc. By policy, the City of El Cerrito may require developments to establish TDM programs as part of conditions of approval for new development. Potential Benefits: Encourage the use of alternative modes of transportation. Potential Costs: No additional costs if TMA is established (Section 4.1). TMA staff could serve the role of a TDM coordinator. Feasibility: While this strategy is most effective for large-employer-based developments, in the case of TODs in El Cerrito, which consists mostly of residential uses, the TMA may implement selective TDM programs that cater to residential uses, such as assisting people with 511 Rideshare programs, ensuring safe pedestrian and bike access to each development site, etc Establish a Transportation Management Association Description: A Transportation Management Association (TMA) is a non-profit, membership based organization that provides transportation services for its participating members. They are generally public-private partnerships, consisting primarily of area businesses and or residents with local government support. For a mixed-use district, TMAs are typically funded through HOA dues or fees paid by the residents and business members. TMAs provide a variety of resources for local residents and business owners to encourage efficient use of transportation and parking resources. For example, TMA staff could implement Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programs (see Section 4.15); provide parking brokerage services to help residents and businesses share, trade, and lease parking spaces; produce and distribute user information; coordinate enforcement services; monitor parking problems, etc. Potential Benefits: Efficient implementation of the proposed parking management strategies. Page 41 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

44 Potential Costs: TMA operation costs Feasibility: The annual operating cost of a TMA would be approximately $115,000 with one full-time staff person or $220,000 with two staff persons. These costs are expected to be paid by Home Owners Association (HOA) contributions of $5 a month per each household or a membership contribution of $5 per 1,000 square feet (sq. ft.) of commercial use, which would generate annual revenue of approximately $186,130 under the minimum-density scenario or approximately $282,142 under the maximum-density scenario. The initial cost of establishing a TMA may be lower because a part-time (as opposed to a fulltime) TMA staff could sufficiently handle the required workload as long as the number of dwelling units is substantially smaller than the full-buildout condition. Detailed calculation of estimated revenues and operating costs for each strategy is presented in Appendix IV. Instead of establishing an independent TMA, the City may also consider partnering with 511 Contra Costa, which is a TMA serving jurisdictions in Contra Costa County. There are four regional planning committees, each serving the southwest, central, east and west regions. 511 Contra Costa is funded primarily by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District s Transportation Fund for Clean Air, and a half cent sales tax established by voters in Contra Costa offers free bicycle racks and lockers to employers, as well as workshops, training, and consultations to employers and employees on strategies and programs for reducing vehicle trips. Examples: The TMA of San Francisco was established in 1989 as a cooperative effort between the City and County of San Francisco and office building developers in the downtown area to reduce traffic and parking problems. The organization is privately funded and provides various transportation services to more than 45 business members and over 50,000 individual members, including online ride-matching, transit trip planning and referral, surveys, event planning, etc. Another example of a self-sustaining TMA is the Lloyd TMA in the Lloyd District in Portland, Oregon. In 1994, property owners and businesses within the Lloyd District initiated a partnership with the City and the regional transit agency, TriMet, to develop a comprehensive plan for the district which embraces TODs and resists urban sprawl. The Lloyd District Partnership Plan calls for several innovative transportation and parking strategies and the creation of Lloyd TMA as a local, non-profit business organization that would act as both a forum and catalyst to implement the Lloyd District Partnership Plan. The Lloyd TMA provides transportation programs and services to business owners; assists employees with commute options, and participates in advocacy at the local, regional, and state level on behalf of Lloyd District business members. Its operating costs are paid by revenues generated from on-street parking meters, and the sales of transit passes through the PASSport program. The PASSport program requires participating employers to purchase discounted annul transit passes for all qualified employees at their work site. The TMA coordinates all sales of the PASSport in the district and receives three percent of the total sales as a commission, which is used to fund the TMA operation. In order to provide an incentive for businesses to sell these transit passes, TriMet and the Lloyd TMA negotiated a partnership that linked the number of net new employee transit passes sold in the district to the provision of new transit service to the district. This program has significantly contributed to commuters mode change to transit and also has resulted in the addition of three new bus lines to the Lloyd District.

45 Martha Bianco, Evaluation of the Lloyd District Parking Programs: The Impacts of Parking Pricing and Transportation Management Association Programs in a High-Density, Mixed-Used District (1999) 5.12 Peer-to-Peer CarSharing Description: Peer-to-Peer CarSharing services allow an existing car owner to make their vehicle available for use to other drivers in their area in exchange for payment. The business model is similar to carshare services (Section 4.4) except that a fleet of carshare vehicles is replaced by the vehicles from participating owners. Potential Benefits: Encourage car shedding. Potential Costs: Incur administration costs. Feasibility: This strategy requires mass participation to be effective. The TMA could potentially facilitate and negotiate the terms with a San Francisco-based company, Getaround, and launch a pilot program in El Cerrito. Examples: While this program has long been widely popular in Europe, it has only recently been introduced to the U.S. market in the City of San Francisco and some northeastern cities (e.g., Boston and New York). A San Francisco-based company, Getaround recently launched its service for the residents of San Francisco. Getaround uses a web interface ( and mobile applications to facilitate person-to-person car rental. They offer a product called The Getaround Carkit, which enables keyless entry to a converted vehicle through the ability of a driver or renter to unlock a vehicle with a smartphone. Rental rates start at approximately $3 per hour including insurance costs, and owners can earn up to $10,000 a year. Reference: Getaround, (2011) The San Francisco Business Times, Peer-to-Peer car sharing startups cut in, August 5, Provide EcoPass for Residents Description: An EcoPass is a transit pass offered at a discount to a user based on a group rate. To make the program financially viable, the program would require a commitment from the residents to purchase, through an HOA, a set number of passes each month. The Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit) offers an Easy Pass program for residential communities where property managers can bulkpurchase transit passes for their residents at deeply discounted rates. The EasyPass program offers unlimited AC Transit service on local and Transbay routes to qualified residential communities and employers. Pricing for the EasyPass program ranges from $43 to $121 per person each year, depending on the number of participants and the level of transit services provided in the area. This represents a significant reduction in price compared to a fare of $80 a month for a 31-day pass. BART does not currently offer group discount passes; therefore, the TMA should work with the agency to initiate a pilot program for the study. Potential Benefits: Increase transit ridership; provide additional amenities and incentives for prospective tenants or buyers to not own a car. Page 43 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

46 Potential Costs: Increased administration costs, and cost of EcoPass subsidies if needed. Feasibility: Since AC Transit already has a program which allows residential communities with 100 or more units to apply for discounted transit passes (i.e., EasyPass), the proposed developments in El Cerrito (2,586 3,789 dwelling units) could easily apply for should apply for this program. BART does not currently offer group discount passes; the feasibility of this strategy is uncertain at this time. Examples: Numerous communities in the San Francisco Bay Area participate in AC Transit s Easy Pass program and other similar programs offered by local transit agencies. As of August 2010, the residents of Fourth & U Apartments in the City of Berkeley are offered an AC Transit Easy Pass at the annual price of $89 per person. The Pass is valid on all AC Transit services (including local and Transbay) for unlimited rides. References: AC Transit, Easy Pass Program for Residential Communities, Free BART Parking for Carpool and Vanpool Vehicles Description: BART currently provides preferential parking spaces to carpool/vanpool vehicles and charges a daily fee of $1, which is the same rate as SOVs. These spaces can be offered for free as an additional incentive to carpool or vanpool. While the SOV parking lot is usually full by 8:00 a.m., the carpool/vanpool parking lot is approximately half full by 10 a.m. (and full by noon), according to the 2008 BART survey. Depending on the projected demand, carpool/vanpool parking supply may be increased. Potential Benefits: Reduce SOV access to BART; encourage carpool/vanpool usage. Potential Costs: Loss of parking revenue (approximately $1,000/year per space) depending on the number of free carpool/vanpool parking spaces to be offered; increased enforcement and administration costs. Feasibility: Loss of parking revenue would be offset by the increased SOV parking rates. The effectiveness of this strategy is likely to be modest, and will depend on the price differential between the SOV and carpool/vanpool parking fees Attended Parking Description: Attended parking employs the service of a parking attendant who organizes efficient parking based on arrival and departure times. Unlike valet parking, where a valet parks a vehicle on arrival and retrieves the vehicle on departure, attended parking relies on organized parking queues. Drivers typically park and retrieve their own vehicles. Parking attendants in the garage would instruct patrons to park on a certain level and in tandem based on their planned return time. Attendants would retain keys to each vehicle to enable shuffling as needed during off-peak hours and upon patron return. Potential Benefits: Increased parking capacity on site by up to 35 percent 12 ; added security for patrons and their vehicles. 12 MacArthur BART Station Access Feasibility Study, Fehr and Peers (2008) Page 44 El Cerrito Parking Study Final Report November 28, 2011

47 Potential Costs: Increased parking costs; increased administration costs; inconvenience to drivers. Feasibility: Estimated cost of approximately $101,000 for hiring two parking attendants on site could be paid by the increased parking revenue. Examples: Attended parking has been employed at Pleasant Hill and Richmond BART stations. Attended parking has significantly increased capacity in the parking facilities by up to 45 percent Summary The parking management strategies presented above are intended to reduce parking demand. Some of these strategies are designed to complement one another and have to be implemented together to be most effective. For example, an unbundled parking strategy would be feasible and highly effective when convenient carshare services and other bicycle and pedestrian-friendly amenities are present. It is also noted that some strategies would be more effective than others, and implementation priorities should be also considered based on feasibility and cost-effectiveness. Table 25 presents the summary of the parking management strategies in the order of implementation priority and effectiveness on reducing parking demand.

48 6.0 CONCLUSIONS The City of El Cerrito s two BART stations serve as critical gateways for regional commuters. This has resulted in significant parking shortages in the BART stations and surrounding neighborhoods. On the other hand, the rest of El Cerrito provides a typical auto-oriented suburban streetscape where large and often underutilized surface parking lots adjoin a single land use. This unbalance of parking demand and supply exists throughout the City. In order to successfully implement TODs, it is essential that the City consider the relationship between the current parking requirements and the low parking occupancy conditions and how other cities promote TOD, and then develop a set of requirements and strategies that would facilitate the proposed TODs. A review of the City s current parking codes and the parking demand survey indicate that the City s minimum parking requirements exceed the level of parking demand, thus resulting in excess parking supply and low parking occupancy. Such parking codes also diminish the financial feasibility of future TOD projects due to increased costs of constructing parking facilities. CHS Consulting recommends that the City considers reducing its minimum parking requirements to reflect a realistic level of parking needs, which is approximately 20 percent less than the required number of parking spaces under the existing codes. These new requirements would reduce development costs while not causing parking impacts. It is also essential that the City invests in parking management tools which aim to reduce parking demand and avoid parking impacts rising from potential shortages of parking spaces. CHS Consulting recommends 15 parking management strategies that are intended to address the existing parking issues surrounding the two BART stations and to reduce parking demand throughout the City. These strategies would contribute significantly for the success of TODs. As these strategies are implemented, the City should also consider establishing in a subsequent phase criteria for the maximum parking allowable to further reduce parking footprints in the City.

103 Parking Management Strategies (Proposed) 1. Reduced Parking near Transit Land Use Standard Station Area/Mission Blvd Residential 1 to 2 per unit per unit Retail 1 per gsf 1 per 315 gsf Office 1 per 250 gsf 1 per 315 gsf 2. Commercial Parking Benefit District Install meters in commercial areas and adjust rates to create 15% vacancy on each block. Dedicate parking revenue to public improvements where it is collected 3. Residential Parking Benefit District i t Similar to Residential Permit Parking District, but allows commuters to pay to use surplus on-street parking in residential areas. Return parking revenues to the neighborhood to fund public improvements. 4. TDM Program 4. TDM Program Invest meter revenues to support TDM Programs (e.g., transit pass, carpool, vanpool programs, etc)

104 Parking Management Strategies cont d 5. Universal Transit Passes Using the fund collected from parking revenue, provide free transit passes to employees and residents (e.g., South Hayward BART Affordable Family and Senior Housing Project offers free AC Transit EasyPass for more than half of the units) 6. Parking Cash Out Require employers to offer their employees the option to cash out their parking subsidy. 7. Unbundled Parking Require new office and residential developments to unbundle the full cost of parking from the cost of the housing or commercial space. 8. Carsharing Program Require developers to pay into a carshare start-up fund, and or partially or fully to subsidize operation costs.

110 MacArthur BART Station Transit Village Overview Redevelopment Plan for the MacArthur BART Station Transit Village (2008) Redevelop blighted parking lot and underutilized sites surrounding the BART Station Enhanced access to the BART Station Public transit connections Development Highlights (Proposed) 675 units of high-density multi-family housing 20% affordable rental and 80% market rate residential 34,000 sq. ft. of ground-floor neighborhood serving retail 5,000 sq. ft. of community space Replace 300 of 600 existing BART parking spaces Up to 675 residential parking spaces (1 space per dwelling unit) MacArthur BART Station Transit Village

111 Parking Management Strategies (Proposed) 1. TOD Zoning Overlay Land Use Standard S-15 Zone Residential i 1 to 2 per unit 0.5 per unit Retail 1 per 200 to 450 gsf None 2. Residential Parking Benefit District A portion of Residential Parking Permits could be sold to BART patrons on a monthly basis. This revenue could be used to pay for RPP capital and operating costs. 3. Unbundled Parking When the building units are sold or leased, the parking spaces would be rented or sold separately from building space. 4. Market Rate BART Parking Parking spaces would be priced at $5 a day. The revenue would be used to pay for attended parking Hour Metered Parking In order to accommodate additional BART patrons parking, approximately forty 10-hour metered parking spaces would be provided on the streets immediately adjacent to the station area. The revenue could be used for improvements in the neighborhood. 45

112 Parking Management Strategies cont d 6. Remote Parking Remote parking facilities allow use of shared and less costly parking facilities within close proximity of BART Station to accommodate peak parking demand (e.g., church) 7. Transit Discounts for Carpool & Vanpoolers BART patrons commuting via carpool or vanpool may receive subsidized transit passes. 8. Attended Parking Parking attendant would retain keys to each vehicle so that he or she can organize efficient parking by shuffling the parked cars as needed during off-peak hours and upon patron return. This strategy is expected to increase the parking supply by up to 35 percent. 9. Carsharing Membership Carshare membership ($50/year) will be included as part of HOA dues for all residential units in the Transit Village. 10. Village Resident EcoPass Lite An EcoPass, a transit pass offered at a discounted group rate, would be offered to residents. 11. TDM Coordinator The residential community in the Transit Village would have a designated TDM Coordinator who would be responsible for implementing and managing the parking and TDM programs.

Shared Parking Bonus All shared parking spaces are counted as two parking spaces toward the fulfillment of the minimum requirement.

123 Downtown Redwood City Today "Parking is now easier to find in prime areas, and parking in lots, garages and side streets is better utilized. Thanks to the new system our prime parking areas are less crowded despite the presence of more people and cars. So, while some folks might not like having to adapt, we would have been worse off had we done nothing." Dan Jack, Downtown Development Coordinator for Redwood City, October 2008 Downtown Redwood City
