~l!fQF-~\~ Staff Report
DATE: June 4, 2007
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Marty Van Duyn, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: STUDY SESSION: DOWNTOWN PARKING GARAGE CONCEPTS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council
1) Conduct a Study Session to review the proposed Downtown Parking Garage concepts, and;
2) Uphold the Downtown Subcommittee's recommendation to authorize staff to proceed with
the planning and design of a parking garage with ground floor commercial space.
BACKGROUND
During the past year, the City Council's Downtown Subcommittee has been meeting regularly with
Downtown stakeholders, and the availability of parking has been a frequent topic of conversation. These
conversations led to an update of the 2001 site analysis for a Downtown parking structure, and on
February 14,2007 the Redevelopment Agency Board approved a conceptual financing plan and authorized
staff to proceed with planning for a parking garage on the surface lots on the south side of Miller A venue.
Staff subsequently retained Walker Parking Consultants and Group 4 Architecture + Planning to develop
concept plans evaluating various site concepts and use mixes within a garage. These concept plans were
reviewed by the Downtown Subcommittee on May 16,2007. The Subcommittee determined that a garage
with ground floor commercial space is the preferred concept and directed staff to develop an additional
concept by adding a floor of parking above the commercial/parking garage option.
DISCUSSION
The purpose of this Study Session is to narrow the scope of the project and develop a project description
with sufficient specificity to permit environmental review. To that end, Walker Parking Consultants and
Group 4 have developed three "Site Concepts" and five "Garage Concepts" for Council's consideration.
Site Concepts are variations on pedestrian access routes, and Garage Concepts are variations on the mix of
uses within the structure. The schemes are interchangeable, that is, any site concept can be used with any
garage concept.
Site Concepts
Three Site Concepts present three different means of access to the garage by pedestrians. Concept A
provides no formal direct access to Grand A venue, requiring garage patrons to walk down Fourth Lane to
either Miller or Linden A venues to reach Grand Avenue. Concept B would convert the existing private

surface parking lot at U.S. Bank into a pedestrian walkway, and replace U.S. Bank's parking with spaces
within the parking garage. Concept C would have the City acquire one of the buildings along Grand
Avenue and incorporate a pedestrian connection through demolition of a building, with potential for
redevelopment of any area not needed for the walkway. The Pang Kee Market building (356 Grand) is
shown as a representative example of how this concept could be executed with any of the proximate
properties along Grand A venue.
Garage Concepts
Garage Concepts lA and lB are both single-use, parking only configurations. They differ only in that lB
utilizes "tuck-under" parking by excavating into the high side of the site. Concept 2A and 2B introduce
commercial space into the first floor of the garage. As mentioned above, option 2B was developed at the
Downtown Subcommittee's direction, and adds an additional floor of parking. Concept 3 places two
floors of residential above parking.
Analysis
The Downtown Subcommittee recommends, and staff concurs, that either Concept B 1 or B2 should be the
preferred concept. These options add a net 184 or 248 spaces, respectively, to the existing 856 spaces
Downtown. The inclusion of commercial space along the Miller Avenue frontage is consistent with the
policies of the General Plan, which has designated both sides of Miller along this block for commercial use
on ground floors. As the first significant commercial development along this block of Miller, the project
could serve as a catalyst for future commercial development in the area, and the location of commercial
space immediately adjacent to ample parking would enhance its marketability. Additionally, lining the
proposed parking structure with active commercial space fosters a more pleasant pedestrian experience and
adds visual interest to the structure. For this reason, ground floor commercial space is widely considered
an urban design "best practice" for downtown parking structures.
The commercial space option also provides a potential solution for the City's space needs, since the
Parking District's meter shop could be relocated from the building behind City Hall to a small portion of
the parking garage. This space could also be shared by the Downtown bike patrol officers, parking
enforcement officers, or used to provide the public with information on parking policies, permits and
Downtown businesses. These options for the commercial space can be evaluated further through the
design process.
The preferred concept may be used with any of the site configurations described above. Staff plans to
explore these options further through additional meetings with adjacent property owners.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council uphold the Downtown Subcommittee's recommendation to direct
staff to proceed with planning and design of a mixed-use parking structure including ground floor
commercial space.
