for shared parking, TDM programs, and parking pricing to determine the appropriate parking supply. Encourage the use of parking reserve in landscaping concept (i.e. landscaping that can be converted to parking in the future if necessary) to ensure that excessive parking is not provided. The project as revised based on the conditions of approval provides 441 parking spaces (423 for the residents, 18 for the retail), meeting the minimum number of parking spaces (380), without exceeding the maximum number of parking spaces (707), as established in the DTPP. In addition, the conditions of approval require a final transportation demand management program prior to certificate of building occupancy. The program includes an annual reporting program. - Program BE-53: New Development Roadway Consistency. Require new development’s roads and all other roadway improvements to be consistent with the adopted street typologies. The project is bounded by a Boulevard (El Camino Real) and two City Streets (Diller St. and Franklin St.). The alley is a private street and not called out in the DTPP. The project provides diagonal parking spaces on Diller St. to reduce the lane widths, consistent with the DTPP. Diller and Franklin streets would be repaved upon completion of the project. Sidewalk widths and improvements along all street frontages are consistent with the DTPP. - Program BE-55: Level of Service Policy Evaluation. Evaluate Redwood City’s current Level of Service (LOS) policies for motor vehicle circulation. The evaluation shall consider the following to ensure efficient traffic flow and balance multi‐modal mobility goals: o Maintaining LOS D or better for motor vehicles in all areas of the city, except the Downtown area as defined by the Downtown Precise Plan. In Downtown, no minimum vehicular LOS standard will be maintained but vehicular LOS will be calculated and alternate LOS standards for other travel modes will be established. o Explore other areas of the city where vehicular LOS standard would either be lowered or eliminated. These areas may include gateway intersections providing access into the city, freeway ramps, or along Transit Streets including the proposed streetcar corridors. o Consider the effect of potential mitigation measures to improve vehicle LOS on the operations of other travel modes. o Evaluate the potential for elimination of vehicle LOS as the primary measure of impact assessment for developments in parts or the entire city. The project was analyzed for potential traffic impacts in the Initial Study. The study finds that the project does not result in any new or more severe transportation impacts than what was studied in the DTPP EIR. Any mitigation measures of the DTPP applicable to the project will be implemented. (Initial Study, pp. 35‐40.) A letter prepared by Hexagon Transportation Consultants, dated March 15, 2017, further demonstrates that the project would have less 8.A. - Page 69
