P24-0110; 5675 Owens Drive (4452 Rosewood parent address) Planning Commission 6 of 9 Parking §Section 18.88.030(E) (Schedule of off-street parking space requirements ) of the Pleasanton Municipal Code (PMC) requires the proposed use to provide one parking space for each employee, including teachers and administrators, and one space for each four students in grade 10 or above. As the proposed project is a daycare facility, the student parking requirement is not applicable. There will be 27 on-site parking spaces at the project site. The written narrative estimates the following vehicles on the premises when the facility is open for business: Staff notes that Section 18.88.030 of the PMC does not address parking demand during drop-off/pick-up times, which would be the most impacted time from a parking standpoint. As estimated by the daycare operator, there would be 25-28 parking spaces needed in each 30-minute period during morning drop-off and there would be 25-30 parking spaces needed in each 30-minute period afternoon pickup. In assessing on-site parking adequacy, staff used the scenario that if everyone arrives at the facility at the same time, whether the on-site parking could handle the parking demands. For instance, for the morning drop-off, if everyone arrives at the same time during the 8:30-9a time slot, there would be a total of 44 parking spaces needed (14 for facility staff and 28 for parents/guardians). A similar worst-case scenario was evaluated for evening pickup times, i.e. if everyone arrives at the facility at the same time during the 4:30-5p time slot, there would be a total of 48 parking spaces needed (18 for facility staff and 30 for parents/guardians). The on-site 27 parking spaces are inadequate to meet the parking demands. The c the probability that everyone arrives to the facility at the same time is very slim and there will be a number of children who either carpool (such as siblings) or walk to the facility, staff recommended that 15 of the 27 on-site parking spaces should be allotted for drop-off and pickup uses. The applicant was therefore required to either find off-site parking for staff parking within walking distance or reduce the enrollment.
