( ~ _. <br />Staff has included a "standazd" use permit condition of approval on the project that allows the <br />City to review the project again to add mitigating conditions should any future complaints <br />regazding noise levels occur. Such condition could include requiring soundproofing, reducing <br />the number of students, etc. <br />Parking and Circulation <br />The Santa Rita Office Center contains nine buildings (approximately 55,000 squaze feet in floor <br />area) and provides a total of 223 pakking spaces. The overall parking ratio at the office center is <br />one parking space for every 247 squaze feet of floor azea, which is greater than the one parking <br />space for every 300 square feet of floor area normally required for office buildings. With the <br />church's education building at approximately 4,600 squaze feet and the sanctuary building at <br />approximately 6,000 squaze feet, based on the office complex's parking ratio of one space per <br />247 squaze feet of floor area, 19 pakking spaces would be "allocated" to the church's education <br />building at 4455 Stoneridge Drive, and 24 parking spaces would be allocated to the sanctuary <br />building at 4439 Stoneridge Drive. Overall, 43 pakking spaces aze theoretically allocated to the <br />Pleasanton Community Church. <br />The zoning ordinance requires that school uses provide one parking space for every six fixed <br />seats or one space for each sixty square feet of floor azea usable for seating if seats are not fixed <br />in all facilities in which simultaneous use is probable. Staff finds that the proposed after school <br />daycare program is similaz in operation to that of a school. Based on the square footage of the <br />four classrooms (1,450 square feet in combined floor areas) that would be used for the after <br />school program, a total of six pakking spaces would be required. The 43 parking spaces available <br />to the church would exceed the Code-required parking. <br />Staff notes that the Code does not directly address parking demand during pick-up times, which <br />would be the most impacted time from a parking standpoint. The after school program would <br />employ three staff members for 32 school children, at a 1:12 ratio. The church office is also <br />located in this building. When the after school program is in session, and when the church office <br />is open, it would leave at least 38 pakking spaces for pick-up, given that three parking spaces <br />would be used for after school program employees and one parking space would be used for the <br />church office staff, and that employees do not carpool. The pick-up time is normally between <br />4:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. The majority of the pazents would arrive sometime after 5:00 p.m. when <br />most of the businesses in the office complex are closed. In addition, staff has conducted a recent <br />parking survey on the subject property, on Monday, August 11, 2003 at 1:30 p.m. and on <br />Tuesday, August 12, 2003 at 4:30 p.m. At both times, staff has found ample parking spaces <br />available in the southern portion of the office complex. Staff believes there would be adequate <br />parking for pick-up given that arrival and departure of cazs is staggered and that the parents are <br />only pazked in the spaces for a short time. In addition, carpooling of siblings and/or neighbors is <br />common given that students would be primarily from Mohr Elementary School, which would <br />Case No. PCUP-84 Planning Commission <br />Page - S - <br />
