Appendix E (Initial Study/Part~ • Page 13 Mitigation: If warranted, the applicant shall be responsible for installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Davis Street/Carpentier Street. This shall be accomplished to the satisfaction of Caltrans and the Transportation Administrator. The applicant shall also be required to pay for installation of a left-turn lane on westbound Davis Street and an exclusive right-turn lane on southbound Carpentier Street, to the satisfaction of Transportation Administrator. Implementation of this mitigation measure would result in a less than significant impact. Existing + Project + Future Growth Scenario Under this scenario, six of the seven study intersections are expected to operate at acceptable service levels, LOS C or better. The intersection of Davis Street/Carpentier Street as a whole is expected to operate at acceptable service levels with the addition of a westbound Davis Street left-turn lane and a southbound Carpentier Street right-turn lane. During the p.m. peak hour the minor movements would continue to operate at LOS F. With the improvements described above at the intersection of Davis Street/Carpentier Street, no other measures would be needed. Parking The City of San Leandro Zoning Code requires one parking space for every 300 square feet of office space. The Institute of Transportation Engineers "Parking Generation" recommends an average parking demand of 2.79 parking spaces of leasable area on weekdays for general office uses. For Phase 1 (with 130,000 square feet of leaseable office space), 434 parking spaces would be required under the Zoning Code and 363 spaces would be recommended according to ITE standards. The applicant proposes to provide 520 surface parking stalls, thus exceeding requirements under either standard. For Phase 2 (with 180,000 square feet of leaseable office space), 600 parking spaces would be required under the Zoning Code and 503 spaces would be recommended by the ITE report. The applicant proposes to provide 738 parking stalls (at a rate of 4.1 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet), of which 503 parking spaces would be contained within the proposed parking structure. The remaining 235 parking spaces would be at-grade. This also exceeds the requirements. The.13,000 square foot Environmental Education Center would require about 43 parking spaces using a standard of one space for every 300 square feet. Phase 1 has excess parking of between 86 and 157, depending on the standard used. Phase 2 has excess parking of between 138 and 235, based on the Zoning Code and ITE standards, respectively. Therefore, the 43 parking spaces required by the Environmental Education Center can be accommodated with the projected excess parking in either of the two phases. Creekside Plaza - IS/Part 2 _ ___
