UBERUAGA, City Administrat PREPARED BY: MELANIE S. FALLON, Community Development Director SUBJECT: REMOVAL OF FOUR ON-STREET PARKING SPACES ON MAIN STREET (ADJACENT TO 221 MAIN STREET) IFStatement of Issue,Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action,Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachments) Statement of Issue: Transmitted for your consideration is a request by Joe Rivello, applicant, representing Pacific Coast Cafe (221 Main St., Suite A) and Ritmos (221 Main St., Suite B) restaurants, to remove four on-street public parking spaces on the west side of Main Street, south of Olive Ave. This will enable the applicant to create an outdoor plaza area similar to adjoining businesses for outdoor dining purposes. If the request is approved, the applicant will process a conditional use permit to the Zoning Administrator to establish outdoor dining on the plaza area. Funding Source: If removal of the public parking spaces is approved, the applicant will be required to fund and construct the public improvements. The improvements will include removal and replacement of curb, gutter, storm drain inlet, and plaza area in conformance with the Main Street design and street improvement plans approved for the Downtown Main Street Corridor. In addition, the applicant will be required to pay an In-lieu Parking Fee for the four spaces. Recommended Action: Motion to: 1. "Approve the removal of four public parking spaces with the following requirements: A. The applicant shall participate in the In-Lieu Parking Fee Implementation Program (4 @ $12,000.00 space = $48,000.00) prior to the removal of the four spaces; and B. All design and construction of the plaza area shall including curb, gutter, storm drain inlet be paid by the applicant. r REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 1995 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CD 95-39 Alternative Action(s): 1. "Deny the request to remove four public parking spaces". Analysis: The applicant is requesting the removal of four on-street parking spaces to accommodate a pending request to permit outdoor dining. Currently, the area in front of the two restaurants does not provide an adequate area for outdoor dining. The area only includes the public sidewalk, an elevator entrance and a small court yard in front of Ritmo's. This area is not conducive for outdoor dining nor does it comply with the area requirements for outdoor dining in the Downtown Specific Plan. Based upon these physical constraints and to be competitive with other downtown merchants, the applicant is pursuing the request to remove the adjacent on-street public parking spaces. As part of the redevelopment efforts of the downtown area, the public improvements along Main Street, and the revisions to the Downtown Specific Plan (Village Concept), outdoor dining is becoming a vital part of downtown activity. To continue to promote this pedestrian and outdoor activity, the removal of the four spaces will create the area necessary and consistent with the outdoor dining areas along the first two blocks of Main Street. Also, the removal of public parking spaces will benefit two businesses in the downtown area. This benefit will continue to help revitalize all the businesses in the Downtown area. Downtown Parking Master Plan One of the main components of the request is the potential impact on the Downtown Parking Master Plan (DTPMP). The analysis will focus on the removal of four on-street public parking spaces. The parking spaces in question are located adjacent to Pacific Coast Cafe and Ritmos Restaurants at the south west corner of Main St. and Olive Ave. The following analysis is provided for Council's consideration: • The DTPMP was approved with the provision of 402 on-street parking spaces and 1,582 off-street parking spaces for a total of 1,984 parking spaces. If the four spaces are eliminated then 398 on-street spaces would remain for a total of 1,980 spaces. • The DTPMP shared parking concept allows the development of up to approximately 500,000 sq. ft. of development with the provision of 1,984 parking spaces. Within the 500,000 sq. ft. development threshold are land use categories for 100,000 sq. ft. of restaurant, 250,000 sq. ft. of retail, 100,000 sq. ft. of office, and 50,000 sq. ft. of miscellaneous uses. CD95-39.DOC -2- 08/28/95 1:08 PM REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 1995 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CD 95-39 • The DTPMP indicates that 101,302 sq. ft. of restaurant exists, 209,925 sq. ft. of commercial exists, 107,174 sq. ft. of office exists, and 40,575 sq. ft. of miscellaneous exists. The total square footage that exists is 458,975. This indicates that approximately 41,024 sq. ft. of development area is permissible before the 500,000 sq. ft. threshold is attained. • It is important to remember that the Coastal Commission's last revision to the DTPMP allows a shift of square footage between categories as long as the 500,000 sq. ft. development threshold is not exceeded. • To permit the removal of the four spaces would require the associated square footage to be adjusted for the land use categories. This could be done by reducing the retail or miscellaneous square footage and adding it to the restaurant category. The square footage will be calculated by the reduced parking standards for restaurants in Area 1, south of Orange Ave. For example: 4 spaces at 1 space per 150 sq. ft. would be 600 sq. ft. The 600 sq. ft. would be removed from the retail or miscellaneous category and added to the restaurant category. The annual review of the DTPMP would then analyze the shift in square footage for each category with the provision of 1,980 spaces. • The removal of the four spaces must be replaced on a one to one basis pursuant to Section 221.30 (Off-Street Parking Requirements) of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance. The removal of on-street parking spaces would require the proponent to pay the in-lieu parking fee of$12,000 per space ($48,000 total) through the In-Lieu Parking Fee Implementation Program. This would be required regardless if the city; 1) does not entertain a shift in square footage, 2) does not allow a reduction of the overall development threshold and, 3) does not require the proponent to construct the four spaces within the DTPMP area. Planning staff believes that this minor loss of parking and shift in land use category will have a minimal impact on the parameters of the DTPMP. Based upon the ordinance code requirement to replace coastal zone parking on a one to one ratio, staff recommends the applicant participate in the In-Lieu Parking Fee Implementation Program. Conclusion Staff supports the removal of the four on-street public parking spaces because it will; 1) have a minimal impact on the Downtown Parking Master Plan, 2) create an area for outdoor CD95-39.DOC -3- 08/28/95 1:08 PM REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION MEETING DATE: SEPTEMBER 5, 1995 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: CD 95-39 dining to benefit two businesses, 3) continue to promote the pedestrian and outdoor dining atmosphere in the downtown, 4) promote the long range goal of a pedestrian mall and, 5) the applicant has agreed to fund the public improvements and participate in the In-Lieu Parking Fee Implementation Program. Environmental Status: The proposed request is covered by Environmental Impact Report No. 82-2, adopted by the City Council Resolution No. 5284 on July 18, 1983.
