The following is a summary of our findings. In general, we find that the proposed infill structure will have minimal impact on traffic operations on Strong Avenue, has ample public parking supply available in the vicinity for the retail uses, will greatly reduce the existing wide driveway apron areas along the site frontage, and will be accessed safely by residents and customers, with the implementation. of certain recommended improvements. The proposed project will provide storefront commercial space at street level with six residential units on the upper floors. An attached garage at the south end of the site will provide off-street parking for five resident vehicles. Five additional on-street parking spaces will be created along the site frontage in the apron areas of the existing site access. Parking The existing site is presently a private paid parking lot that is only sporadically used during business hours on weekdays. Recent observations showed less than a third of the available spaces typically occupied. Metered spaces are located along both sides of Strong Avenue, and a public parking lot exists directly across Strong Avenue from the site adjacent to the Eastside Grill restaurant. The on street and off street parking available along Strong Avenue provides a total supply of over 100 public parking spaces, less than half of which are typically occupied on weekdays during business hours. Although the development of the site will result in a slight net reduction in the total number of parking spaces available on Strong Avenue, the current underutilization of most of the existing parking supply results in sufficient parking available to accommodate the proposed project. F:\P2001\2001045\AIO\sjsO422a.doc Now ' f .:J Fuss&O'Neill Inc. Consulting Engineers Mr. Michael Sissman April 23, 2002 Page 2 Site Access Backing vehicles into Strong Avenue from the garages should result in no adverse impacts to adjacent street operations. There is sufficient apron area in front of the garages created by the parallel parking lane along the east side of the street for vehicles to back out and proceed northerly without conflicting with through traffic on Strong Avenue. It is recommended that additional clear area and improved sight lines be provided by the elimination of the existing metered parking space nearest to the south edge of the proposed driveway. The backing operation from the residential garage will, in this case, be no different than that from a single or two-family dwelling. The proposed garage will be close to the back of the sidewalk, leaving little buffer area between vehicular movements and the pedestrian walkway. Visibility of the sidewalk from backing vehicles will be limited if only a single garage door is open. It is recommended that panoramic mirrors be installed to provide backing drivers with full visibility of the adjacent sidewalk areas along the site frontage. A system of visual warning beacons with associated signage on the outside of the garage could also be incorporated into the door opening mechanism to alert pedestrians to the approach of entering and exiting vehicles. Motion detectors over the doors could also activate warning lights or signs inside the garage to inform backing drivers of the presence of pedestrians in the sidewalk. With implementation of these recommended measures, the garage operation should adequately protect the safety of pedestrians in the sidewalk. Please let me know if you have any questions on the above.
