Circulation th The property will be accessed at two separate locations off of 104 Street. The CDDSG permits more than one access to a site “when it will not be hazardous to the safety and operation of the street or to pedestrians”. The applicant completed a traffic study which sufficiently addressed public works traffic concerns with allowing two access points to the property. Both of the access driveways will include 5 foot sidewalks that connect to the th existing sidewalk along 104 Street. A 6.5 foot walkway will be constructed around the perimeter of each of the two buildings. Parking Parking for the two structures will be constructed around the perimeter of and between the two buildings. Parking for building 1 will be constructed at a ratio of 2.6 spaces per 1,000 square feet of building area for a total of 107 spaces. Building 2 will include 123 spaces for a ratio of 3 spaces per 1,000 square feet of development. There is the potential to construct 102 additional parking spaces between the two buildings. These spaces will be constructed as needed to meet the parking requirements of the CDDSG as future tenants occupy the space. The parking requirements of the CDDSG are included in the following table for reference.

Parking availability will be reviewed in conjunction with tenant finish building permits. Staff finds that the proposed parking ratios will be sufficient to address the anticipated parking demand of flex occupancy. The applicant has also provided adequate area for bicycle parking located near the entry ways for each building. There is bicycle parking available for a total of 56 bicycles. Phasing The project is proposed to be constructed in two phases. The first phase will include building 1, utility and drainage improvements, the entrance improvements and site paving (with the exception of paving surrounding building 2), and the landscaping and site improvements associated with building one. The second phase will include building 2 and the remaining landscape improvements and paving. G:\Planning Commission\2009\Pasco_CTC_Lot_12\08-023--FP_Passco_PC Staff Report 091009 3
