This study and plan goes much farther in looking at what the existing parking situation is, and suggesting how parking might be adjusted in the downtown to accommodate the changes that are happening and are expected soon. Executive Summary Maximize On-street spaces: • Burnham: Complete the removal of the tick marks on Burnham &Ash (south of railroad); resulting in an eventual expansion of 32 spaces on Burnham and Ash (from 54 to 86). • Tigard St. &Commercial on-street spaces: remove or move location-limiting signs, resulting in 4 more spaces on Tigard and 5 on Commercial. • Scoffins On-street Parking: Remove center turn lane from Scoffins east of the west RiteAid parking lot entrance, and put parking on both sides of street where possible. Expand high-turnover areas: • 2-hr on Burnham: Burnham from Main to Ash, and Ash, shall become 2-hour parking with the exception of the spaces adjacent to BB Print Source, which will remain low-turnover. • 2-hr on Tigard St: On-street Tigard St spaces will become 2-hour parking. • 2-hr Operation: Change the time 2-hr parking enforcement starts and finished to (8:00am- 6:00pm). • 2-hr Enforcement: Enforcement can be done sporadically, but it is necessary as there was a 20% violation rate on Main south of Burnham, and a 45%violation rate in the Burnham off-street lot. Otherwise,the violation rates elsewhere were tiny(2-5%), indicating that signage alone is relatively effective. Low-turnover areas: • Permit System: Create a 4-hour/permit parking option (8am to 5pm)for low-turnover areas (areas that do not need high turnover) that allows 4-hr parking, and those that pay for a permit are exempt from the time limitation (not exempt for 2-hr parking areas). • West Burnham Right-of-Way:There are currently 7 spaces in the Burnham right-of-way(W of Main where there is no road), that appear to be claimed by neighboring businesses (via signage). We recommend these signs be removed, and the area be 4-hour/permit spaces. • Electric St:There are 5 on-street spaces on Electric St. We recommend these be 4-hour/permit spaces. • Burnham Off-street Lot: Change%of the Burnham Lot to Permit only. The back half is 11 spaces would become for permit holders only (unreserved); the front (west) 9 spaces would remain 2-hr. 1 • Commercial St: Leave Commercial Street's unlimited on-street parking as is,for now. • Enforcement: provide regular enforcement of the permit areas. This should be done at a minimum of 1 day every 2-weeks (—.1 FTE), but preferably 1 day/week to be fair to those who purchase permits. (-0.2 FTE) • If less than .1 FTE enforcement available: o Permit system is not recommended o Low-turnover parking options: ■ Sign as "Downtown Employee Parking/8:00-5:00" (unenforceable), or ■ Sign as "No Overnight Parking" (enforceable, but will cause problems), or ■ Leave it unregulated (no restrictions). • Implementation:This suggesting a 3-phase approach, and assumes sufficient enforcement: o Phase 1—2-hr expansion on Ash only and removing tick marks (24 new 2-hr, 18 less open) o Phase 2—2-hr expansion on Burnham (Main to Ash) and Tigard St. (11 new 2-hr, 7 less open) o Phase 3-- Implementation of Parking Plan with 4-hour/permit system (Scoffins as needed) Summary of Permit System One of the concepts that is successful in peer cities, and noted in the previous staff report, was a parking permit system.After meetings with TDA and CCAC,the idea of a parking permit system was palatable to these groups to solve expected issues when the new complex--Attwell off Main --opens. Of course, more community input will be sought as this plan evolves and moves forward.This document takes a look at the current parking situation, and what might be done with the parking permit tool as an option, or if it is not an option. The concept of a permit system is to: • Make available, particularly for downtown employees, on-street spaces that are in areas of downtown where customer turnover is not needed, and to make sure that the areas that do need turnover, have it. • Attempt to keep on-street parking available for its best use,which may include when neighboring businesses and residential on-site parking is full, but not before. o Attwell will be charging$25/month to tenants parking in their surface lot. If on-street parking is not time-limited, this is will push cars onto the street. o Charging for parking, or"unbundling"the cost of parking from the rent, is a good practice in areas where density, equity, and walkability are desired, so the City of Tigard needs to embrace it and plan for it. o Attwell has 164 units, 227 bedrooms, and 168 parking spaces. They intent, at this point, to reserve spaces for individuals as they request to rent parking spaces. This creates inefficient use of space where 20-30%of spaces will be empty at peak use due to not everyone being home at the same time. This will also push cars onto the street. • Push employee parking to where on-street parking is currently not used. o Currently Commercial St has substantial capacity. A permit system will divert some employees to free parking on Commercial. • Creates an economic management tool (permit price)that allows for adjusting demand 2 o Permit price control gives the city another tool to manage parking. When the demand and the supply do not match, the price can be adjusted accordingly for an 85%capacity best practice. o It creates a funding source that will support the administration and enforcement of the program. o It provides employees a way to acquire preferred parking areas. o Creates an incentive for employees to lease unused off-street parking, and sets a market price that will incentivize landowners to provide it. o It creates a financial incentive for residential developments and employers to better manage their own parking. • Without the permit system: o At capacity parking on Burnham (employees and tenants) o Creates more traffic—drivers hunting for parking. o Spillover parking on Commercial St, which is good. o No control of demand through pricing. o Still incentivizes leasing of private off-street spaces, but at a lower price. o No revenue to support the administration of parking management. Summary Conclusions The City of Tigard has an internal parking group that has been meeting every 2 months. This plan has been discussed with this group twice, and many of the subject, like enforcement, have been regular topics of discussion. This parking group includes police, public works (engineering, parks and streets), and Community Development (transportation planning and downtown development). Phase 1 has consensus agreement from this committee, and the other phases have general support, but we plan to take them one at a time and see how each phase goes. A draft schedule of implementation is on the final page of this document. 3 Agenda Item 6 5/2/17 Downtown Project Updates 1.

This plan will guide the priorities for funding urban renewal projects over the next five years. In 2015 the CCAC reviewed the City Center Urban Renewal Plan projects that had not been started or partially completed and then ranked them in order of priority. The highest ranking were Commercial St. and Scoffins Rd. streetscape improvements, the Tigard Street bike lane, the pedestrian bridge over Fanno Creek, Plazas and Public Restrooms (see attachment.) At the May meeting we will review the previous rankings. Please also review the City Center Urban Renewal Plan for descriptions of the projects. http://www.tigard-or.gov/document center/CommunityDevelopment/urban renewal plan.pdf Not Yet Started High=Most Desired Urban Renewal Projects Project D• Desired Add'I Streets:Ash Ave extension including RR Crossing,Ash Ave auto crossing over A.Street Improvements Fanno Creek 2.Scoffins Street/Hall Connect Scoffins to Hunziker Road where they cross Hall Blvd. 1.75 Considered in SW Corridor Boulevard/Hunziker Re-Alignment Impact on existing apartment development Dependent on site redevelopment&negotiations with RR Comment on Project Type:Each of these streetscapes is awaiting an anchor property development.
