These 53 parking spaces are located on the ground <br />floor and will be reserved for guests and shared with the two on-site modestly sized retail <br />tenants. The remaining 415 parking spaces will be solely devoted to the 260 residential <br />units. Below is a breakdown of how the 415 residential parking stalls are being allocated <br />towards the 260 residences. <br />PARKING BREAKDOWN BY UNIT TYPE <br />STUDIO <br />1BDR/1BA <br />(1 SPACE) <br />(1 SPACE) <br />54UNITS <br />51UNITS <br />= 54STALLS <br />= 51 STALLS <br />1BDR/1BA <br />(2 SPACES; NON -TANDEM) <br />82UNITS <br />= 164STALLS <br />1BID R/1BA <br />(2 SPACES; TANDEM) <br />11UNITS <br />= 22STALLS <br />1BDR+LOFT <br />2 SPACES: TANDEM <br />11UNITS <br />= 22STALLS <br />213DR/213A <br />(2 SPACES; TANDEM) <br />43 NTS <br />= 86STALLS <br />3BA/2BA <br />(2 SPACES; TANDEM) <br />04UNITS <br />= 08STALLS <br />LIVE/WORK <br />(2 SPACES: TANDEM) <br />04UNITS <br />= 08STALLS <br />TOTAL RESID. PARKING PROVIDED <br />260UNITS <br />= 415STALLS <br />The analysis above highlights the fact that unit mix is an important aspect of <br />parking ratios and having only a 20% ratio 2Bdr/3Bdr/Live-Work units does not require a <br />2.0 parking ratio to sufficiently park all appropriate unit types. The analysis above also <br />illustrates the proposed proiect dedicates two parking spaces to 155 residences <br />(60% of total residential units). Within these 155 residences, 104 one -bedroom units <br />are allocated two parking stalls. The remaining 105 residences (studio and one - <br />bedroom units) would be provided with one parking space. <br />According to Metro East Mixed -Use Overlay Zone Section 4.8(A)(3)(c) "Mixed-use <br />Developments with less than 10 percent of the gross Floor area devoted to a commercial <br />activity: A minimum of 2.0 spaces per residential or live/work unit inclusive of guest <br />parking and any nonresidential uses." <br />The Metro East Mixed -Use Overlay Zone is currently undergoing internal staff <br />discussion and a "technical review" to consider alternatives to the current 2.Ostalls per <br />unit parking requirement. One of the alternative options to replace the current parking <br />requirements include a 1.8 parking ratio over the entire MEMU Overlay Zone.
