BAY FAIR TOD SPECIFIC PLAN <br />Public Parking <br />The provision of shared public parking is an important element in reducing the area's overall <br />parking supply and allowing for development patterns supportive of walking and transit use. Public <br />parking facilities should be provided in accordance with the guidelines below. Facilities should also <br />be consistent with applicable parking and loading design standards and guidelines found in Chapter <br />5, Development Standards and Guidelines. <br />Public Parking Guidelines <br />1. PUBLIC PARKING FACILITIES. Whenever <br />possible, new and existing development <br />should coordinate with the City to provide <br />structured public parking facilities that <br />can be shared between uses by the public, <br />promoting a "park -once" district for those <br />shopping, working, or taking transit. <br />2. PUBLIC PARKING LOCATION. Public <br />parking areas should be located near <br />arterial and collector streets. <br />3. PLACEMENT WITHIN BLOCKS. Parking <br />areas should be oriented internally to <br />blocks and screened from the street, <br />with primary access points oriented away <br />from pedestrian areas or public gathering <br />spaces if possible. <br />4. DISTRIBUTION. Public parking areas <br />should be distributed with the goal that <br />all development within the Plan Area is <br />within three blocks of a facility that is open <br />to the public. <br />5. PUBLIC CARSHARE AND ELECTRIC VEHICLE <br />PARKING. Parking spaces for carshare <br />programs and for electric vehicles <br />(including charging stations) are required, <br />where feasible, in public parking lots and <br />garages. <br />Example of electric vehicle charging station on <br />SARTparking lot <br />Example ofstructure parkinggarage with <br />decorative screening <br />• • <br />
