i Elk' Kiver Downtown Parking Study Task 6- Future Parking Conditions. Parking demand ratios will be used to determine the demand for parking associated with new, planned, and proposed projects and any other changes within the study area. The future demand for parking will be compared to the adjusted supply, parking surpluses and deficiencies calculated, and the best location(s) for parking expansion determined. Prepare an analysis of the amount of additional downtown development can be accommodated with the existing supply of spaces. Task 7- Interim Report. Prepare an interim report detailing existing and future parking conditions for review and comment by City officials. After review and approval of the interim report, we will proceed to Phase II - Parking Management and Conceptual Design Alternatives. Phase 2- Parking Management and Conceptual Design Alternatives Task 1- Based on the review of current parking conditions in the study area, future projections, and the information provided during the discussions with the stakeholders and City staff, we will prepare alternative approaches to meeting existing and/or future deficits. The alternative approaches may include a combination of changes to current parking management policies, procedures, and control of the spaces, lot reconfigurations, as well as the development of additional parking facilities. Task 2 -Evaluation of Parking Structure Sites. Potential sites for parking structures will be identified and evaluated. Evaluation criteria will include, but not necessarily limited to, the following: • Parking Needs • Distance to Primary Destinations • User Groups Served • Size, Current Use and Topography of the Site • Parking Efficiencies and Spaces Replaced • Site Access and the Intermixing of Vehicles and Pedestrians • Visual Impact/Architectural Compatibility/Historic Integrity • Shared-Use Capabilities • Development Potential of the Site • Mixed-Use Possibilities Task 3- Site Selection. Based on the Task 2 evaluation, preferred sites for further study will be selected. September 2007 Carl Walker, Inc.
