r- <br />well served by transit, the actual parking demand ranges between 0.41 <br />and 0.68 spaces per employee. This indicates that transit service can <br />produce a significant reduction in the need for office parking. <br />Another parking study recently completed in Anaheim showed <br />actual parking usage rates of 5.0 spaces/1,000 SF for retail and 3.0 <br />spaces/1,000 SQ for high rise offices. This is the same as required in <br />the massive Century City office development. Examination of the parking <br />being provided by the Continental Cities Development shows 3.0 <br />spaces/1,000 SE are being supplied. <br />The City of Santa Ana code requirement of 6.7 spaces/1,000 SF <br />of retail is higher than necessary to satisfy normal or even peak retail <br />parking demand. <br />Land Use <br />Office <br />TABLE 6 <br />CITY CODE PARKING REQUIREMENTS <br />Unit <br />1,000 SF <br />Retail 1,000 SF <br />Hotel Room <br />Transit Service <br />Parking Required (spaces per unit) <br />Sant— a Typical Requirements <br />3 <br />6.7 <br />0.5+0.33/ <br />employee <br />2.4 - 4.0 <br />4.5 - 5.0 <br />1.0 <br />Existing bus routes, stops and transfer locations serving the <br />study area are presented in Figure 22.
