A study cot :iucted by 'Herrnan Kimmel and Associates, traffic engine ers for the applicant, � iridic.•ates that't the proposed design will accommodate entering ve Mcles without significant backup of vehicles at the entry gate:. The design calls for a Kate arrn and ticket disperser to be l(x::tted v-pproxi-mately 65 feet f -on) the street r :)-:ht-A,"-•way. This allows for approxfmately 3-1/2 to 4 car lengths of queuing behind the gate arm. Sased can the design character isties of the pa.►• :ing structure, less than one vehicle leng4h of storage is required. In addition, both a deceleratien lane for right turning traffic, arsd a left-turn pocket fur leN-•turning traffic entering the site will be � provided. E.xi sing from the structure will be provided from two exits pursuant to CtiV.,-, with one exi. to Gothard Street and one to Center Avenue:. Based oa these design considerations, the type of use proposed and the report of the traffic eng'.neer, staff supports thn sin gle poiDi of entry. C. .Another major torte: rn, expre5,:ed by the Manning Commission was the lrrcpact of the proposed Gothard- ouver courec_tic+n. The existing Intersection of Gothard Street and mcradden Aver,ue is prof:4ed to hf, relocated to the east, so that Gothard Street will align with Honver Street in Westminster. The City of Westminster City Council, on March 14, 1989, vot+ea to place the connection on their Mpster Plan of Arterial Highways. 'fhe realignment of Gothard will cross the transportation center site at its uortheastern ccat•_rer, but will not crass .'ie proposed buildings or driveways. Only a small portion of landsc?Aped area will need to be removed. Since the applicant is providing landscaping well in excess of cc.de requirement&, the landscaping will remain in c;omplianc• after they realignment. With regard to traffic impacts, the applicant's engineer has determ ned that there will be no adverse. impacts on the transportation center from the :yothard -• Hoover connection. Nor will there be adverse impacts to the traffic volumes on Gothard or Hoover as a result of the office building. A study conducted by Parsons, Brinkerhoff, Quade and Doulgas, Inc. in M-7, shows that both .,treets are currently underutilized, and will still be urxier capacity upo:i coraiection. -4- (2484d) "Es" y f The Parwm, Brinkerhoff, Quade and Douglas analysis considered lmgw.-t on traffic vviurnes end congestion if Gothard were extended either In the very near future, nr In 2010. Long rarige assumptions included Implementation of the Super Street prograrn oil Beach l3ou+(v3rd, expansion of Coldenwest Street to six travel lanes north of 1-405, and future growth consistent with current, dent-loprrient proposals 4nd the Cou!ity's long- rangot smic—ecc;inonic projections. rho ;ii�t impact. of the extension would be to attract iraffic: away from c,ongeGted pal-allei arterial;;. Impact on e,Vst-wr!st arterials would be minlam-1. The extension would attract approximately 13,000 AD`r (!fiver-age Daily Trips) ur, J)e read segment be-'weer. Bolsa and McFadden, and would aid 4,000-7,000 ADT to a ioover north of Bolva, and to Gothard south of McFadden. The existing volumes on Gothard and Hoover are less than 80% of capacity, and even with the extension and additional /..DT's, would still be lee, than 8011i'o. In general, the ,extension would provide hen>efi;i-�1I impact's to 1l1intingiori Ci,..-a r, Mall, Guldeawe::t College, acid other destination [mints along Beach Boulevara, Goldenwest, Gothard, and Hoover Streets. The transportation center itself should ,elp to m-- >igate existing at,d future traffic demand along arterials in the vicinity (including Gothavd, Hoover, Center, McFadden, Beach and Goldenwest) by providing a centrally located mass transit center. AddIdonally, conditions of approval suggested for the project, ;such as a Transportation System Management: Plan, will help mitigate traffic concerns. The applicant's raffie engineer, Greer & Co., conJucted the original trvffic study for tlt:s project, and provided a letter Addressing the Planning Commission's concerns. The traffic c.ngine►er has concluded, with the concurrence of City staff, that the project with the suggested conditions of apps•ovai will not. have significant unmitigahle adverse imp-sets on the surrounding circulation systern. D. Qo'A enwest Cali _CQncgrns Sutsequert to the Plaruring Commission hearing, staff and the applicant met with representatives of Goldenwest College and Coast Community College bist:ict to address their concerns. One concern was the possible impact of the Wilding on the television transmitter located on campus. However-, studies conducted by the College show that the proljased office tower will not impede signbls. Another concern was the possibap impact of office users and guests upon Goldenwest's parking facilities, sir►we parking at the College will he: much less expensive ($1d.00 per semester vs. $40.00 per month). The project proponent, however, has Ind►sated that the office employers, rather than employees, will pay for space in the structure, thereby removing incentive for employees to flay for parking at Goldenwest. Guest parking for visitors to the office huildir,- will be validated. The developer has also expressed willingness to post sigh; at Goldenwest and at the shopping center to the south advising patrons of parking regulations. These various measures to ensure minimal Impact on surrounding properties will be included in the Transportation System Management Plan, required as a condition of approval. gAUyq-IQRet/lEconornic Concerns The proposed OCTD project is within the Huntington Center Commercial District Redevelopment project, which was approved in 191.14. The redevelopment plan for this area conforms to the current General Man for the City of Huntington Beach. The OCTD project meett. many of the goals and objectives of the Huntinguin Beach Commercial District Redevelopment Project, including improved facilities for park srA ride, employment oppo:tunities, economic contribution to the City of Huntington -5�- (24811d) 1 1 Elearh, tag: incremew, to assist its financing traffics circulation itnprovemerrs, StA contributions to to/moderate income hoeing through the 2.0% housirp, set--aside. The benet'lts provided by thi, project contriWite to the well heing of all residents. The t..x increment for 1988 --g9 i �stimateci to be over $1 .5 million and the OCT D project would contribute an estimated $100,000 per year or estimmated 6% of the current total. This increment will accrue to the Huntington Center Project for the next 30 years. A major '�x)rtion of the tax inc:reme. -ill be :;tied 'to provide inaffic circulation lmpr.avc ments and wili ;i►clude the Goth Street Extension, renter Avenue ar.%d 1-405 ramp widenings, modifications to Edinger Avenue (betweet. Reach Boulevard .and Gothard Street), Mc Fadden overpass and assistnnc:e In making ')n-site circulation improvements on properties alorgr Edinger between Heath, Bcoule"31rd and C►otharrd Street. i The OC~Ti) joint zise projei.:_, will cu atribute to the economy by prcxitcirng an estimated 400 new jobs In our community. These new jobs will afford Huntington Beach residents additional opportunities to work close to their Ilome and eliminate a freeway corminute. Also addltional employees would most likely shop .�i the area and enhance our sales tax revenue, which is used to provide municipal semi,:es throughout our community. 'rax increment housing set--aside funds from the Huntington Center Redevelopment Pr-)Jett will be placed ln.co a separate account and be used for law and moderr.te Income housing throughout the City of Huntington Reach. The housing set--aside. fund will contain futtd.R from all or our redevelopment project areas. A Program is currently being formulated for the expenditure of how;ing set-aside funds. The proposed project is covered byEnvironmentJ Impact Report No. E7.12, which was certified by the City Council or, July 27. 1987, in conjunction, with their action on General flan Amendmem No. 87-2. General Flan Amendment No. 87-2 changed the designaf ea on th-D subject site, rrorn public, (quasi--.'ublic, Institutional, to Mixed Use Development. Environmental Impac t Report No. 37--2 analyzed three conceptual development alternatives for the site, the most intense V which Included 117 surface parking spaces, 15 bus bays, a 2110 200 square foot office building, and an 800 :;pace parking structure. The ctu,rent proposal includes 12 bus bays, a 138,900 square foot office building and a 580 space parking structtre, which is less than the maximum development scenario analyzed, The ER did not identify any significant adverse Impacts associated with the three development alternatives. However, traffic was identified as a potential concern, and the FIR recommended that prior to further entitlement, a traffic study be completed to determine the most appropriave amount of office square footage for the site. Such study was completed by Greet and Company for the applicant. and the conclusions of the report are. addrewee the the ANALYSIS section of this report. The traffic study is also discussed in the Planning Commission Staff Report dated February 22, 1989. Not afi.3cable - (2494d) wti 1 w w i The City Cotmell may: I.

On Harch 21 .. 1989 , our project was lonied approval by the Huntington Beach Planiilng Corvirnission with respect to the fol.Lowing Items, Zone Change #87-2.. Conditional Use Permit with Spocia *. Permit/Condltional Exct3ption ( Varl--cince ) #67-96 . Considering an overwhelming acceptance of the project by the Huntington Beach staff, the support and desire of the Orange County Transit District, and our own convict-ions that the aforementioned project is a much needod 5acilit*1 for the public, and also one that will greatly profit the City and the Redevelopment Agency ! - a whole. ; we would like -to address the issues that were found to be a basis rj-.or denial by the Planning Coituitission, in writing and in person at the upcoming City Council meeting . ZONE CHANGE #87-2 : The Planning Ccnunission had brought up several concerns, both here and with respect to tho C.U. P. #87- 54, In rwgards to possible traffic impacts on surrounding properties. Also, that these impacts might be further complicated after the future extensisn at Hoover Pr.d Gothard . LQ C::t. Ly Of }iesn-17.1.reclt0ti 9(c rJCJJ A primary fac:'; that- the Planning Commis,.t.on m:icght overlouked is that the basic premise ot' they proh-.ct has, not boon. nbo-rgatred by t;ho ade3:l.t_.l on of` Lhe3 n,,f f ce hut (Ii.nq, i . tr. ani, port;ation oe nt ur and ;:liarefore, w.i i l w i.tigal o sume '.)

Met Etrld d iscus,Sed passible mitigatiriq solutions . Our developed 'L-raffic analysis indicates that the impact of the office building on current traffic f circul atinn condit.ion4; is negligible and likewi oe, a similar traffic study suggest::_: that; Ilse, efroct of they Gothard extension will , if anythir:g, produce a positive react:ioii with respect to traffic circulation . CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 087-54 : Another item the; Planning Commission was concerned about, was that the location and site layout of our office and parking structure, was not: adap-tc:d properly to the existing st;rents and adjacent structures . With respect to this. we ::o have a vsxy unu:�ual. development in that we have a combination usage, between the transportation center and office facility, loth of whi.uh will utilize parking which is � encompassed within a six-level parking structure, complicated ai.ih the location of this Propp.rty and its unusual shape . The combination of these-, cr.i Ler±a posed for a very dl.f ficul t design problem. We have worked on a one-to- one basis '.or.• many rnonthu with the Huntington Beach staff and feel that we have come up with a project that doer:; adapt i t-sal. f we].1 to the existing demography. Concerns were also raised about our single point of access to the parking structure . We have done two separate traffic, studies on uoth the dopicted entrance and a study dealing with the feasibility of providing another entrance to the structu.r-e.. The first study concurred with our existing layout in that the two lanes of access at one entry point was sufficient and that no queing up 01-: cars Would occur at the peak hours . A second report was done to look at -the feasibility of a secondary entrance to the structure at another location . Our Traffic Engineer found that this actually would create a conflict between Center Street traffi^ a.ld the outgoing bus traffic of the transportation center. As an overview, a single primary entrance into the structure .:as found to be more than adequate and a secondary entrance was found to be detrimental to the design and to circulation. Also, in regard to th.: Gothard Street realignment, our design does reflect the possible realignment of Gothard Street and our site plan was designed with this in mind. *X1, i Cit.r of Huntington Beacl-i 1)aq";, 3 SPE-C.r.AL PERMIT ' The Plannin(l Coniinissior that our �:►: t:�j��+:,�. could be injuriotis to the valutt of propr. 7rt:y o.� j..+nprovE;mini s in the neighborhood or the Cl ty In (lcneral. .

Demand Estimation Procegs for the Calder, West. Transportation Center Based on the request from the City of Huntington Beach Planning Commisaion in yreprd to the Conditional Use Permit Application for the Golden West Transportation Center (CWTC) .Joint Development Project can the demand estimation process for park-and-ride users , we have pr.pared a swnmary of the planning atudien supporting the trsnstt portions of the project as described in the City staff report to the Planning Commissic:n on February 22 , 1989 , Specifically , we understand the Planning Counaissxon' s concerns to be whether the 11.5 spices programmed for use by park-and-ride users will sati.-,fy potential derr.and into the future , Basically, analysis and District pal-icios supporting the CWTC parking space allotment cover three periods and lavc.l of technical derail , as described to tha fell;ring sections , HUNTINGTON BEACH TR_kNSP0aTh.TI0N CENTER LOCATION STUDY (1580) The purpose of this study, conducted jointly by the City and OCTD in 080, was toevaluate the need for a pernhanent tr,3nsporcation center in the City of Huntingdon beach, focussing 6pecifically on the ar':as around Hunt:i.ngton Center and Pacific Coast Highway, In pareicular, the plItnaing analysis focuse-ed on the need for a protected facility for btis operationt, in thesis areas , based iri large ;part to problems being expevi.enced in both areas Niue tc the significant numbers of buses providing service in these areas. The potential for park-and-rids use was a secondary use , dependent in large part: on the location of any eventual transportation center site (that is , near the freeway and residential origin areas attd with good access to freeway on - ,and oft'-ramps) and the ability. of the site to support bath tvansit (bus) and park-and-ride (automobile parking) uses . 'rho majority of the sites evaluated for the uncinaton Center area .in fact would have seriously restricted ax totally eliminated the possibility of park-and-ride vase, The .rmber and size of available altes in the area was, and continues to be extremely limited, so the District was quite fortunate in acquiring the sit* for the Center from the Golden West College In addition, the District has chosen to follow a general policy to acquire sites with mininvis disruption to : existing laud uses , and usually prefers to ccquire vacant or 'Ignifidantly uuderused parce3x. The College si.ta was also supportive of this policy. Sassed on th* tect,nical. findings of the LogAjJon Studv, the site at Gothard ana Center was date xisined to saCisfy the District's bus operations needs to the year 1095 and beyond. Concint+ed reassessment of our bus facility nee 's in this area corktinue to confirm that the site, if developed with 12 bus berths , will mt-et the ,District's needs to the year 2010. rt D "ns 11 Ac"f 0we W.0 fax 300..W&Men CimmCarWww 9242-.'W&(714)977.6 W 1, t , The LocationatudX also estimated potential Nark-,,,rid- ride use in the vicinity of the CWTC site based on travel demand forecasting activit::As coed-ucted-as part of the multi-agency arfing,g. gognty 1lultiModzal Irans,)Qrtatio i St dv in 1979 . The results of area specific analysis of potential park• and-ride demand for this area indicated need for between 100 ?:nd 200 automobilis parking spaces by the year 1995 . It should be noted that: as used in this ana'i.ysis, "park-and-ride" refers to patrons who drive their cars and park at the cent:esr, and transfer to a transit vehicle (bus) for the remainder of their trip . This analysis slid not confider persons wha would drive alone for part of: their tri.p and then transfer to either a caipcol or vanpool for the remainder of their trip . In general , the planning policy of the District is to provide permanent Di:;trict: owned park--and-ride facilities in support of its Local and commuter express bus services , due to the need to ensure parking facilities and availabilAty along the alignment_ of the transi*: service. The policy encourages and suppovts the provision of parking spaces for carpool and vanpool patrons through 1,Aases of private property (church, schools , parks and commercial areas) that arc underutilized during weekday commute periods , conditions on new residential developments to provide extra parking suitable for residents desiring to carpool and through the development_ of permanent part.-and-ride Facilities on otter publicly owned land (such as excEss freeway right-of-wdy or surplus laical jurisdi.ct'.on properties) . A key element of the provisioi.i of park-zi,:l-ride spaces for non-transit xidesharers is ro maximize ronvenien(:e .and accessibility to the user by locating these facilities :lose to residents homib , majoc arterial and freaway access . In addition, by spreading these facilities across broad market areas , increases to peak period traffic flows are minimized for most a.:P:Es , rather Than focussing these impacts in one area near a large parking facility, In siunmary, the 1979 study resulted in therecommandatian to pursue a transpartation center and park-and-ride at the golden W+:st site because the site met our bus facility needs , and provided for 115 automobile parking spaces and was available in a market. area vl.tn extremely lirait:ed opportunities for alternate sites. The specific sections of the 1979 Location `cs ._t evaluating the Golden West area, project and site ; re included here as Attachm(.rt.' A. 1985 TRAVEL DEMARD UPDATE (SYSTM LEVEL BUS/HUV .ANALYSIS in 1965 , as part of the Diatrict' s countywide System Level Bus/HOV analysis , 110V and transit travel &wand projections were developed for year 2000 for all of Orange County, using the data generated in this analysis , an updated eatimata of demand for park-and-ride spaces at the CW`rC was prepared as detailed in Attachment B to this report. In summary, this analysis indicated a need by the year 2000 for 200 to 400 spaces for c,arpoulacs and vanpoolers and approximately 340 to 425 spaces for transit (bixa) patrons , for a total -teed of between 600 aad 880 spates , It should be noted chat this analysis effort assumed that the GVTC site was the sole park- and-ride. for the commuter market area, which encompassed all of north Huntington Beach and the City of Vexstminister. Alternatively, this demand could be met through the use of several lots throughout the market area. The analysis did note that demand could bu controlled through restrictions Gn the available parking and through marketing efforts 2. f r r TRANsITVAX CONCEPT DESIGN WOMING PAPER B. 4 : PARK-AHD-K?DE FACILITIES (1987) This stuay was a system wide revaluation of the need for park-and-rive facilities in support of Qx� teanait service likely to be operated on the system of commuter lanes and trt,nsitways proposed for implementation on the Orange County freeway network. Two fairly large market areas in the 1.405 corridor, oriented to destinations south an 1.405 , were identified as possible -ransit service market areas, as shown on Attachment 3 , Based on extensive analysts of commuter trip patterns and grip destinations (focused on the major activiL•y centers in Orange County) , transit service was identified as ,Just{,fiable from Market Area e; (in the northern segment of 1-405) , but nv t. in Market Area 9 just to the south . It was estimated , based on the travel demand forecarts , that approximately 350- 450 spaces would be needed in t:tie Market Area to meet the need for the express t:ranait: users by the year 2000, The nett element of the study evaluated the potential sites available in each market area for possible development as a park- and-ride , to order to develop cost estimates for the transit park-and-ride needs portion of the transitwa;r Development Program. . For Market Area 8 , several sit-es in the vicinity of the GWTC site were identified and evaluated against several criteria. The assumptions of the study :included the. joint. development of the GWTC, with, a reduction in the ahility to axpand the available parking for transit patrons in the future , as well as the assumptions that when pussiblc the need for park-e,nd-ride spaces would be met through the use of leased caciltti.es and use of Pxisting u,,derutilized or unused publicly owned proFerty whenever possibl.e . The sections of the F'acili_ties W!?,rk3.nt,L .Peer related to the Market Area alLIg I-405 are included in Attachment 2 . GENERAL ISSUES AND POLICIES ON EPAtK-AND-RIDE DEVELOPMENT Any discussion of: the development of, park-and-ride facilities in grange. County raquires an understanding, c,f the background issues and Di.-Itrict policies ,,nd directions on the development of facilities . A suirnary of those issues and policies is listed below and basically reflect the attitudes and approaches the District staff use tahen considering the development of pa'r:k-anti-ride facilities . Issues Relating to Park-and-Ri6a Development In an environment unconstrained by iinsattcial and other restraint--- , most f ransi,t cistricts would probably r.ttemot to provide numerous F ici.lities for tray. it and rideshare users acress thri'r entire service area. Unfortunately, Orange County and the District am cunst*rained by a number of very significant issues restricting the District' s aai%ty to provide permanent prank-,an:i-ride facilities � for every singles potential user. These issues include : o Limited availability of open parcels of land appropriate for the development Of pai'':ing facilities . :n fact, the majority of possible parcels in most wArkest- areas are usually, not very large and would result in the need for two or more facilities in any given market area to realistic must the heeds of commucers in the market area. o The price of land in Orang., County is extremely high, and is continuing to increase . purchase of a site and development as a surface parking lot is usually not the most, effective use of either the land or public funds . In addition, the development of commercially or similarly zoned lard in park- and- rido use will remove mom � P� r c the land from property tax rolls, thereby reducing; the tax revenues available to the local jurJadiction. o The project development process requires federally fundrd projects such as the CWTC to provide significant Juatificaticn for the project at the tine that: funds are sclicited from the federal agency. The federal funds are thatti allocated to the project and modifications to the project later (for example , purchase of a larger site than originally proposed or construction of a more extensive or expensive facility) would not be tl.igiblc for federal funds without applying for additional federal fund3 . Any changes in a project' s funding at the point: the CW'TC project; is at could significantly delay the implementation of the projece. 8 The District' s own budgeting process is siMilhr , in that additional costs require a reallocation of local funds , which could result: in delays to the project. general Policies in the Diatr.ict's Park-and -M Development Program In addition to the const:r,.ints described ubc•ve, there a number of general P aliCies the Dist•.riet, s staff follows in planning and implementing permanent j facilities and particularly park-and- ride facilities , including: i U The provision of pa 'k-and-rjde spaces :is closely tied to the noed o1: transit patrons . Specifically, spaces must be provided in very cicse proximity of the transit routes the patrons will be using. n, is obviously restricts these facilities to locations near or on major arto _-ial and, in the case of express service , with convenient access to ,freeway razips. Carpoolers and vanpooler_s are significantly more flexible in that they can geriarally meet anywhere that is convenient to t:h,. riders in the individual pool and are not restricted to parcels on near major arterial and with easy access to the freeways , a An import:atit corollary to that planning ;policy is the ability to modify the demand at a given park-and-ride by adjusting the levels of transit service or by adjusting the costs to part at a givers facility. In the late 197C' s demand at the District's Fulloarton Park-wad-Ride (FPNR) began '-n approach the capacity of th,: facility . Modifications in the levels of express bus service, ins.:i-tution of minor charges for parking (xix dollars per month) and tt:e opening of a new, zmall parking lot on excess Caltrans right-of-gray resulted ins nodification to demand to reduce the pressure on the FPNR. As demand increased over time, spaces were made available at- the FFNR for transit users by relocating vanpools (which typically have 8 to j 14 automobiles associated w4.th arch vats) to alternative leased facilities which are a better meeting place for, tliat specific pool . Through these types of actions , demand at a particular lot can be controlled to avoil overflow or over Capacity conditions , o The District, whenever possible , will make every effort to avoid acquiring right-of.-way char. ,iotild regaire relocating any businesses R d� r or residents or that would negatively impact surrounding uses , There restrictions on land availability and zoning significantly reduce the n%vabor of parcels available for consideration in any El-ran area, o Like most public agencies , the funds available to the. District (both local and federal) for facility develvpment are extremely limited. The District makes every effort to implement alternative types of facilities before committing its capital funds to build permanent facilities. In the case of park-and-ride facilities , especially for ca:-poolers and vanpoolers , there are a nwaber of alternatives the District pursues , including: : Leased facilities (through Calt;rsns' park-and-ride lease program) using existing Parking facilities that are underutilized during the peak demand paziods (weekdays) , The fxcilivAe.s can include churches , retail businesses, commer •ial rests, and recreational facilities. Frequently, these types of parking facilities are available very close to =idesharers trip origins (their homes) which minimizes the distances they individual. travel. to meet their multi.-occupant ,ehicle . Development of facilities on land alveady in Public owntership, Calcran^ excess rights-of-ray, or city owned land not-- currently proposed for development can frequently be developed as park- and-ride facilities very inexpensively , by eith`r. Caltrans , OC'CU , the ci_y c+r Some combinati.on of those agencies . Provision of pa>:k••aad-ride. spacees wirhin large residential developments , as a condition of dnvelopinent by the city Or county. CCNCLUSION/SUKKARY The demand for park-and-ride spaces in the general market area around the GWTC is greater than the currently proposed number of spaces and l.s greater than the District' s current financial commitment to the project can meet. The intention. is -not to meet all this market areas needs with one facility, but rather with a broad range of facilities scattered through out the market area, to maximize access to transit services (at the CWTQ and to maximize convenience for -ear and vanpoolers (by locating spaces very close to their trip origins) . The District recognizes it responsibilities to mace commuters need- , while at the same time bola& financially and fiscally c sponsi.ble, The Uistri_t Will monitor closely the demand at the terminal snd will control the usage of the park-and-ride fecil.iry. Further, the District will continue its current activities to provide park-and-ride facilities through out the market area, co meet the needs of as many users &R oossibl.e. iA 1R' h 1 ' (X"rD -- SSTERM SESSION , X&OUIREM Required.

The approved center was to consist of 117 surface automobile park and rides spaces , 3 buys bays to serve Greyhound and airport bus lines, 12 bus bays for OCTD, passenger shelteers,� Iand a 1, 200 square foot office facility for G reyh3und. Ae t a condition of approval for that project , the Planning Commission dirficted OCTD to explore joint development of the site, in which a private Oe velopeer would develop an office use above the transportation center . During 3.9971 feasibility studies were conducted by OCTD, and Property Yeritures was selected to develop the otfice3 building . In 1 order to permit development of the office building , the City initiated General Plain Amendment No . 87-2 to change the General Plan � designation from public, Quasi-riablic Institutional , to Mixed Use . ' The concurrent: Zone Changes No . 87 -2.. to rer7ne the site from CF-E(Rl) to C4-NS was continued Indefinitely, and is now being requested to accoraraodate the development request . B .

The propoesd office building is located on the westerly portion of the site along Goy hare: street, Rnd will contain 138 ,900 squares feet of gross floor area , The design of the 9-story building provides for a "Steppiug back" affect -. from the s�.a:th through the ninth floors . The transportation center and parking structures ara located on the easterly portion of the Mite . The f'i.rat f1vior of the structure will incorporate 12 OCTD bus bay$, a p►ose3nger platform, and ancillary OCTD offices . Vehicle parking f aci li.ties will. consist of 580 spaces on the second through sixth levels of the structure . Of these spaces , 463 are, designated for office users, and 117 are provided for OCTD park and ride- users . A pedestrign bridges connects the structure to the second floor of the office building . Access to the parking structure and they bus terrai.nal is from Gothard Street .

The trahaportation center (bus bays , drive aisles , passenger platforM) o=lupies approximately half the ground area of the site . Therefore, it becomes necessary to locate office and parkinq facilities above the transportation center In order to achieve a mined %Ise development as envisioned by the Commission and City Council in their yravious actions . The -MS suffix is required in order to dovelop coamercial buildings that exceed 50 Feet in height (approximately 4 store.as) . Staff Report - 2/22/89 -7- 20 49d) Y 7 The front and exterior sideyard setbacks required by the -M8 suffix are base! on 5o feet, plus one additional toot fox each 10 feet of building height over 50 feet, or one additional foot for each, 10 feet of building length facing the street.

The rear setback for -Me 13 based on 20 feat , Plus one additional foot for every 10 feet ,of building height over 50 te&t , or one additional foot for every 10 feat of building length facing the property line. The grOLLer of those calculations yields a rsggited rear setback of 54 . 6 feet. These setbacks are far greater thhh those required by atandard C4 zoning , as can be seen in the following matrix: Heauired Setba.I-Aal, .- G4.-KS ADR?1sukdt Pro228a. { Front 10 ft . 68. 4 ft . 37 ft .

(parking) The purpose of the increased --MS setbacks in to provide a buffer area for adjacent land uses that may be sensitive to height and to reduce the bulk impact of thu high building . However, dues to the size and shape of the subject lot, if all required setbacks were observed, the � lot would be virtually unbuildable for Mixed Development (sere Attachment No . 4) . The applicant has attempted to buffer the building to the extent possible in consideration of adjoining land uses, while j maximizing total landscaped area and parking facilities as follows ; � a . Z=Qnt and ez eri f2r &tbACM - The office is sat buck 37 feet from Gothard crud .47 feet from renter . The central fire lane between the office and parking structure allows the applicant to forgo a drive lane around the front of the building, and to landscape the entire setback area . The parking structure is see: back 21 . 5 feet from Gothard and 24 feet from Center. Again, the setback areas will be full landscaped . The design of the structure is constrained by the standard size and configurst;.on required for parking stalls and, drive nisles within the. structure. Given the unusual shape of the lot, the proposed design makes maximum use of the setbacks prov .ded, and should be adequate to buffer the commercial area to the' south, and Guldenwest College tc the west . To soften the building ' s height, it is designed with a stair-stepping effect from the sixth to the ninth floors . b . Bear,, ,Se1b u k - The 0 font r--!tback along the rear (easterly) property Sine abuts a 150 f.o6t wide Edison easement , and a 100 foot wide railroad right-of-way. Although the Edison easement is zoned R1, it is unlikely to develop as such due to existing high tension wires . The parking structure will therefore be buffered from the nearest developable property (Old World) by 250 feet to the east . D W-3 q staff Report - 2122/89 -8- (2049d) 4 h rr�r i e. kerimatfir .i4an.,.AWapi,na - The applicant is requesting relief from the requirement to landscaper the entire perimeter of the parking structure. The easterly side is net at the property line, and the westerly side (facing the office building) is bounded by the vehicle exit ramp and fire lane. The *two aides of the structure facing Center Avenue and Gothard Street will be landscaped . 2) Bpggixl it': Section 9605. 1 d of the ordinance Coda requires that parking structures with more than 300 spaces provide for additional ngress and egress opportunities . Section 9605 . 1(h) allows the planning Commiaaion to grant a special permit to deviate from this requirement based on certain findings and documentation by a traffic engineer. The applicant is requesting to provide one main entrance to the parking structure from Gothard Street . A study conducted by Herman Kimmel and Associates , traffic engineers for the applicant , indicates that :he proposed design will accommodate entering vehicles without significant backup of vehicles at the entry gate. The design calls for a gatq arm and ticket dispenser to be located approximately 65 feet from the street right-cf-way. This allows for approximately 3-]./2 to 4 car lengths of queuing behind the gate arm. Based on the design characteristics of the parking structure, less than one vehicle length of storage is required . In addition, dedication off Gothard is required for a deceleration lane which will reduce conflicts of vehicles traveling on Gothard and these slowing down . to enter the complex. Bariting from .the structure will he provided from two exits pursuant to Coder, with one exit to Gothard Street and one to Center Avenue , 3) Q thAjj3-HoQ a XExt : The existing intersection of Gothard street and McFadden Avenue is proposed to be relocated to the east, so that Gothard Street will align with Hoover Street in W'e,stmi.nster . The City of Huntington Beach is presently working with Westminster to achieve a Connection of Gothard and Hoover. The realignment of Gothard will impact the transportation center site at its northeastern corner, but will not impact the proposed buildings or driveways . Only a small portion of � landscaped area will need to be removed . Since the applicant is providing landscaping well in excess of code requirements , the landscaping will remain in compliance after the realignment . 4 ) TUB —vi l 1 aw Wav o The property owners of the apartment complex east of the site (east of the Edison and railroad :sights-of--way) have expressed concern that the transportation center and office traffic will adversely impact Huntington Village Way, which troks the apartment complex. The street is privately owned and maintained, and providei public access to the apartment unite, Old World Village, and portions of one pacific Staff Deport - 2/22/89 --9- (2049d) 4 " ( i f. r woo r Plaza. The traffic study Completed for this project by Greer and Co . 41d not identify the intersections of Huntington Village Way/McFadden of Huntington Village Way/Cantor as being potentially impacted by project-rexateil traffic. According to the City' s Department of Public Worker this project will not Contribute to• a significant inoreaso over the existing traffic that already riper Huntington -Village Way for access to existing develop vents . The City could not accept the atrest as a publicly dedicated street because the width, radii, and materialx are inadequate to meet City standards for public streets . l - o � SICUMUNDAI ON: Staff reaom4ands that the Planning Commission approve Zone Change No . 87--2 with they following findings and forward to City Council for adoption; and approve Conditional Use 'Permit No . 87-54 with Special Permit and Conditional Exception (Variance) No. 87-96 with the following findings and conditions of approval .

D 0-g aL POP, MW-QE MKIN� ltAC'T*ITT 'Rg, dated October 5 , 1972 . According to Table 4 of that report (attached) , the design flow rate for a ticket dispenser gate With a direct approach is 520 vehicles per hour and would require six oar len the of reservoir space. The design volume y for the Golden Nest facility, as stated above, is 297 vehicles per hour. This io 55% of the. maximum flow rate. According to Figure 1 of Cirommelin 's report (i�ttaehasd) , lesa than one vehicle of storage is required. As stated in the report, as the ratio of average arrival rate to average service rate approaches . 5, the required queue length becomes insignificant. Average asrrival, rates were used for this analysis. it is difficult to predict actual peak arrival, though it is certain that peaks above an average rate will occur. To antic gate this it is recommended that the gate arm be located' to provide the maximum storage area as possible. our review of the garage plans indicates that if placed at pier 9, 65 feet of storage can be achieved without altering the design of the -structure significantly. This will provide more than anough storage for normal parking activity. You also asked that we review the pedestrian walkway which crosses the auxiliary downramp between piers two and three on than ground floor. 'From our examination of the plans, it appeaire that visibility is restricted for pedestrians exiting the garage. It is expected that pedestrians will not take the initiative to yield to exiting vehicles . It is recommended that vehicles be required to stop prior to enterin g the pedestrian walkway area. k stop sign and stop pavement legend can be placed to control traffic. The planar also indicate an island extending into the y .� 1.M. 4 February 2 , 1989 Property Venturea pedestrian wal way area. This should be removed to provide for handicapped acaeso.

Th: , offi.( facilities will be coordinated � and/or integrated with the transportation center uses , , A feasibility study on two conceptual development scenarios for such a ;joint project has been conducted by Spillman/Boatman/Stull and � Lee . One scenario proposes that office -use be hurt in the air space above the western portion of the Fite which is currently designated as a surface parking facility. The. office use in this sc:anario would consist of appro4imatialy ''1170 000 square f eon of floor area . The second scenRri.o r, -opdses development of the air space . above the entire transportat r)n center . The office use would consistti of approximately 21l , 000 square feat of floor area . Both scenarios include parking structures . After thorough analysis , the firm concluded that both alternatives would be economically � feasihle. Cunsequently, OCT, is interested in pursuing a joint development agreement . To permit the development of the air rights above the transportation center, the City has initiated this General Plan Amendment . A zone change from Community Facilites M Sducatien/Low Density Resideatial to CoMercial with a Multi-story suffix (N-MS) is being processed ' concurrently with the general plan amendment . The C4--MS toning can accommodate the proposed office use wiih limited conkmercial use , as � well as the transportation center . 2 . 2 . 2 Aaalyaie The fallowing analysis exam' nes three development scenarios for the subject property. The first scenario is the "no- project" alternative which consists of the already approved transportation center with no development of the space above.. . This would not require a General ' Plan Amendment or zone change . - The second and third scenarios analyze the conceptual. - development scertarior offered in the joint development feasibility study, , conducted by Spillman/Boatman/Stull and ; Lee, and include the i approved transportation center plus off ice/eomtnerciial space: . Both of these scenarios would require, a general plar. amendment and a zone change to reflect a Mixed Use general pLAn designation and ; Co% nerci.el toning (C4) . :n most cases, when general plan amendment requests aro reviewed, ' several alternative land uses are analyzed in addition to the request. in this case, however, only two alternative land uses are ►. anslysed; the existing public, Quasi--public, Institutional ' designation and the proposed Mized Use -designation. The snalysis is limited to these two alternative land users due to the special circumstances of developing the site. ' !n �dAn• -43- tl+ r �� T111. 3 analysis is being conducted in order to review the foa6ibi.lit.y n : carrying out: ' ' ). anning ConnissBAon policy; such policy being the Commission' s desire to promote joint vont.ureship on the OCTD site.

South of the subjc�t; site, they area is general planned as Goncial Commercial, and west and :north of thb OCTD site, the area is general planned Public, Quasi-•pybl ic,.. InEtitutiortal . As indicated in Figure 6 , the OCTD site is currently zoned CF -Y. (R-I) , Community Faci lilies-Education with a base zone of Loa Density .exidential . The sAtc has ezarried this zone designationsinceDecember of 1969 , when thc= CF-% overlay was placed on the base zone . The CF-N designation reflected they use of -he site for averflow parking from Golden West College . The area Lo the north and west is zoned CF--L also . The property to the east (adjacent to -the site) is zoned R1. Further to the east the area is soiiad as the :forth Huntington Center Specific Plan . South of the subject site, the property in zoned C-4 , Comnerci.at 1 . As previously meenticr,ed, the subject rite is pre sentll 'ILCant and undeveloped* but does serve as a buc stop for OCTD. The site is included in the Huntington Center Commercial District Redevelopment Project Area . The. rr-development plan for this area was adopted in November of 1984 . A primary objective of the plan is to correct circulation problems within the project area . Construction of the transportation center alone will help to alleviate some of the - problems.. Further traffic studies will be necessary, however, in _ order to evaluates the impacts of developing office space over the approved center . Adjacent land uses tG the site area primarily commercial and office. � � x Huntington Center , a retail shopping mall is located southeaetit of the OCTD site. East of the site, beyond the undeeveslupead Edison and railroad rights-of-way is a mixed use area which includes the ,01d Wcrld speciality shopping center and an ' apartment complex. Zdrt:he3r east is one Pacific plaza, a mixed use development project consisting of offices space and restaurant uses . An additional building with a hotel and offices in currently under construction at One Facific Plaza . Golden West College lie3 to the west of the subject site and commercial uses exist south of the site along Gothard Street . Staff believes that the proposed development on she subject site would be compactible with, surrounding lanai uses. It: has already been established that the transportation center to be located at this site would be a compatible land use, and staff believes that the addition of office spaces to the site kill have littl.ea additional impact ttith regard to land use compatibility. With proper site design, ' building design, * and . seatback requirements, a project of this natu=ee can be seen as a coheAve extension of the mixed development uses to they east, (0568D) -45- lv,3 1 ,NERAL, PLAN DESIGNATIONS LEI 1IN4 00 h AK IFL LOW DENSITY �'' PILL AT = m,�rr. a 1 rates wt POW 1.Jr1'J..T �of ii�lS 1 3 E PUbLI C, QUASI -PUBLIC, INSTITUTIONAL .( MIXED DEVELOPMENT CF -E C E. r.n•r.ya! 11.1w 1 GENERAL COMMERCIALI 1.�•di'rti � M::'11':iti:�A'•.a'1 i:. ,!:• ; .•:�!.

The City has approved the extension of this sewer line in order to serve the approved transportation cor'to;. The eight--inch sewer line will allow sewage from the project site to flow (by gravity) south on Gothard Street to Hail , then west to Golden West , From there, the sewage will flow to this Slater Puop Station which is under County jurisdiction . The City is currently monitoring the twelve inch sewer line that rune along Hail between Gothard and Golden 'West as this line is close to capacity. Prior to approval of any additional development on the site (over and above the previously approved Transportation Center) , flow testinq should be conducted. if it in determined that the O;isting sewage pipeline system csnnot accommodate the proposed development, the installation of a parallel line may be necessary. The Couety Sanitation District has indicated that although the i Slater Station is a P�uap pgroachiatq capacity, the alternativeae within this study can be accommodated. %%a district further notes that if it in anticipated tha4 any washing or repair of, buses ,will be done at the project site, 4't will be necessary for the project proponent to contact the r 3trict 's Industrial Wasts Division. It Alhould be J noted thst than proposed office use would have no impact on Lut wishing or repair . b. NAWS The subject property is currently served by ail eight inch water line in Gothard Street . After reviewing the development alternatives contained in this analysis, the City's Public works Departmant concluded that the existing water distribution system is capable of supporting any of the proposed developments . This conclusion was based on the assumption that normal water main extensions will be constructe4 Vith any now developmnt and was qualified by the stataarent -that ' a computer model of t-s water distribution system was nc►k avai Tab4e tO verify the assessment.

Traffic projections are, prr-�vided to give the reader an urder-of-magnitude estimate of the likely traffic impact. These estimates should be taken as approximations; actual traffic coriditionsr in the futur^ could differ from these traffic volume estimates. The discussion of each specific issue. apea considers traffic conditions ovith and without the Gothard/Hoover extension, in the existing condition and in the yens `''VO. Beact. Boulevard. In the existing cordit3on, the Gothard/Hoover extension would reduce traffic on Beach Boulevard between Bolsa Avenue and McFadden Avenue by about 4,000 vehicles per day. The traffic model projects only modest traffic decreases on other sectioni of Dearh Boulevard (about 1.,000 vehicles per day). The het result Is a fairly modest reduction of congestion along Beach Boulevard. In the future condition. the Super Streets improveinerts would reduce the existing level of congestion on Beach Boulevard without the Gothard/hoover extension, except � through the Beach Boulevard/I-405 Interchange. The extension would reduce traffic on Beach Boulevard by about 5,000 vehicles p it day between Bolsa Avenue and Me"Fadden Avenue, and by 2,000 to 39000 vehicles per day elsewhere In the study area. In the future condition, the Gothardl/Hoover extension would provide a modest reduction of congestion all along Beach Boulevard through the study area. 4 gldenwest Street. In the existing crndltton, the Gothard/Hoover extension would reduQa traffie volumes can Goldenwest Street by 3,000 to 6,000 vehicles per day. This ' results In improved traffic: flow, particularly through the 1Y-405 interchange. i In the future condition, the assumed expansion of Goldenwest Street to six lanes north of I-405 significantly reduces projected traffle congestion In that area. The Gothard,/Hoover extension would reduce traffic volumes on C3old2nwest Street by 39t0O to Sp"O vehicles per day. This would particularly redtuee Congestion through the I-405 interahmge and would improve traffic flow between Bolsa Avenue and Edinger �. Avenue. f Numb ..•, a 1 i 1 t;Gaver Street. In the existing condition, the Gothard/Hoover extension between dolsa Avenue and McFadden Avenue is projected to carry 13,300 vehicles per day. North cf echo Avenue the extension would increase traffic volumes oil Hoover Street by 4,001) to 7,000 vehicles per day. With the added traffic, tht. volume •on Hoover Street would be well below the capacity of a four lane divided arterial. In the year 2010 the aothard/Hoover extension is proi,,cted to carry 15,000 vehicles per day between Bolsa Avenue and McFadden Avenue. 77te increased capacity on Beach Boulevard from the iupec Streets improvements, comi)ined with tine assumed expansion of Goldenwest Street to six lanes north of I-405, are largely responsible for the modest traffic increase projected for this street from the existing condition to the year 2010. North of Solsa Avenue, the extension is projected to add 6,000 to 9,000 vehicles per day to Hoover Street,in the future condition. With this additional traffic, the volume on Hoover Street is projected to be well below the capacity of a four lane divided arte'. lei. Gothard Street. In the existing condition, the Gothard/Hoover extei sion is projected to add 4,000 to 6,000 vehicles per day to Gothard Street south of McFadden Avenue. With the additional traffic, the volume or. Gothard Street is projected to be well below the = acit of a four lane divided arterial. � Y In the future condition the Gothard/Hoover extension is projected to add 5 000 to j 7,000 vehicles per day to Gothard Street south of McFadden Avenue. With the additional traffic, the volumo on Gothard Street to projected to be well below the capacity of a four lane divided arterial. avenue, The; aothard/Hoover extension is projected to have only a minor impact on Solsa Airenue. In the existing and future conditions, traffic on Solsa Avenue east of Hoover Street is projected to increase by 20000 vehicles per day as a result of the exOnalon. OtherwWe, traffic projections for Bolsa Avenue would not be affected by the extension.

It describes how the model was set up and calibrated, rind presents the traffic assignments which were the basis of the traffic impa�t analysis. As the reader reviews tree mode) results, he should keep in mind that the purpose of this traffic model was to estimate. the traffic impact of the Gothard/Hoover extensim. Although the model was calibrated as closely as possible to existing traffic conditions, the level of detail whieh was avai!able for preparing the land use data, trip generation rates, and trip distribution factors, make this model (like most traffic models) difficult to rate precisely for every segment of every street in the study area. The model's projected tratfifi volumes are presented is, this section for the sake of Oomplateness, but the emphaac' of this aialysis should be placed on the relative Impacts oaf the project which are described in the main body of ;he report. The ,ItuJy area selected for the traffic model is bounde-J by Westminster Avenue on the north, Edwards Street on the wart, Neil Avenue on the south, and Newland Street on Me east. This area was divided into 27 zones for the purpose of traffle generation, distribution, and assignment. The zones on the south side of the San Diego Freeway aorreapwd with the tone structure of the Huntington Beach 'Transportation Demand Model (Tf9TDW)# although one additional zone was added along Qothard Street south of EdInger Avenue to better reflect the traffic assignment in that area. North of the Sari DISCO Freew#y, the study area was divided Into zones approximately the same size as the Zooms south of the freeway. Exbow WA future (year 2010) lard use data was assembled for eaah zone within the OttwV616 For the Mai south of 14059 the HBTDN 1977 base year land use data was u9W W the base, and updated to existing conditions with data provided by the dity of Hunt too Beach, tod by rev: awing an aerial photograph of the area. For the zones p y4 � rf I 1 1 north of 1-405, the county's OCTAM model socio-economic 4ata base w..s disaggre•- ,. gated into thezones used for this study with the u—sistance of the aErial photograph. The existing land use tease for the study area was updated to the year 2010 projections using the projected growth factors from the OCTAM model data base, and modified with iniormatIon provided bi the City of Huntington Beach to include more spnoific estimates of growth in such areas as Huntington Center, One Pacific Plaza, and the Target Center. ' The traffic model network includes all of the existing arterial streets within the study area, plus than San Diego Freeway and its Interchanges with Westminster Avenue, Goldenwest Street, and Beach Boulevard. In the existing network, the arterial streets were coded with the existing number o: lanes, In the future network, Beach Boulevard was modified to reflect the adopted Super Streets Improvements, and Goldenwest Street was modified to Include six travel lanes north of 1-405. In other respects, the future network is the same as thc, existing network. The Gcthard/Hoover extension was ammed as a four-land facility between Holsa Avenue and McFadden Avenue. 1'%ip generation for dhe study area was calculated on the basis of the total number of daily vehicle trips In each zone. The trip generation rates applied tr, the model were based on the daily trip generation rates used in the HB i DM and trip generation data from the ITS Trip Generation manual (third edition;. The daily generation rates applied Lo each of the thirteen land uses In the traffic model are shown In Table A-1. Trip distribution data were obtained from three sources: the trip table In the HBTDM was aggregated to show the directional distribution of traffic from the south part of this study area; the traffic distribution used In the One pacific plaza traffic Impact j study was obtained; and the existing traffic counts on the streets and freeways leaving the study were obtained. It was assumed, by extrapolating data from the HSTDM, that approximately 25% of all trips generated would remain within the study area. The model distributed the trips using the 2596 Internal trip capture In combination with the I Muasad external trip distribution percentages. During the aallbration of the model, Ow ext*T4 distribution percentages were adjusted somewhat to better reflect -15- -D 7 'CABLE A--1 TRIP GENERATION RATES yii• .

The final external distribution percentages used in the model are shown below: 0 17% to the north-west via the San Diego Freeway. 0 21% to the south-east via the San Diego Freeway. 0 12% to the north via arterial streets. e 10% to the east via arterial streets. • 20% to the south via arterial streets. s 2096 to the west via arterial streets. I � no distribution of traffic to these external locations was riot the same for each sore. During the calibration of the model, friction factors were applied to the travel pattern$ so that to +a certain extent, external trips from a tone would go to the l extOMW locations clop-at to that zone. The distribution procedure which was used to celibmte the model to the existing condition was applied to the year 2010 model as w*L li r •' 1 r ow r w r Once the existing trip distribution data had been calibrated, through traffic (trips which pass through the study area without Stopping) was s.dded to the arterial streets and freeway. Theuugh traffic was estimated by calc:ulAdng the difference 'between existing traffic counts and the traffic generated in the project area. In the model of future conditicris, through traffic was increased to represent the relative growth projeettKI by the OCTAM traiiic model for the next ''25 years. Through traffic on the freewe , PAnd the north south arterria's was increased by 25% to reflect this long-term growth; through tre.`'.X on the east-west arterials v,!w, increa: ;ed by 30%. 1 The traffic assignment procedure which most closely replicated the existing traffic volumes in the study area was a stochastic, capacity constrained assignment. This procedure loads 20% of the traffic in the trin table onto the network, then recalculates speeds and assigns another 20%; this procedure is followed until all trips have been assignod to the network. in each 20% Increment, the trios are spread or►t to a certain extent between the possible routes between an urigin and destination, with the shortest route receiving the majority of trips. In each subsequent 20% increment, travel tbrss change to reflect the loading of traffic, so trips tend to distribute themselves between alternative routes even more in the letter increments of the assignment process. The results of the traffic asOwnment procedure are shown in Figures A-1 through A-4. Figures A-1 and A-2 show the model's estimate of existing traffic volumes without and with they Gothard/Hoover extension. Figures A-3 and A-4 show the model's projections of year 2010 traffic volumes without and with the Gothard/Hoover extension.
