B. That on February 19, 2008, the Tustin City Council approved a comprehensive Parking Study for Old Town Tustin which found that Old Town Tustin's existing parking supply is not heavily utilized, and that there is significant public parking available. C. That the acquisition of additional public parking areas is not necessary at this time. And, "no-cost" leases and in -lieu waivers utilized in the past provide no LIN offset for maintenance costs assumed by the City for public parking facilities utilized for private purposes. D. That on April 3, 2012, the Tustin City Council approved Code Amendment 2012- 002 by adopting Ordinance No. 1416 creating a fourth parking option to foster economic development, create jobs, and increase the number of persons shopping and working in Old Town Tustin. E. That implementation of Ordinance No. 1416 requires the establishment of a fee to reimburse the City of Tustin for the use and maintenance of public street and lot parking facilities in Old Town needed to substitute for all or a portion of a private development project's waived onsite parking requirement (including street sweeping, street repair, landscape maintenance, etc.). F. That the purpose of the fee is to compensate the City for the proportional use and maintenance of public streets or lot parking areas, as authorized by Ordinance No. 1416.

I Ell Ordinance No. 1416 establishes a new parking exception option that allows all or a portion of a project's required on-site parking spaces to be met through the payment of an annual fee intended to compensate the City for the proportional use and maintenance of public parking. G. That a fee amount would be used to compensate City's cost in performing routine maintenance of public street and lot parking areas in Old Town (including street sweeping, repair, landscape maintenance, etc.). H. That a reasonable relationship exists between the fee's use and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed in that new development in Old Town may meet the City's parking requirements by providing required parking onsite or in any other manner provided by the Code. Ordinance No. 1416 would establish a new parking exception option that allows all or a portion of a project's required on-site parking spaces to be met through the payment of an annual fee intended to compensate the City for the proportional use and maintenance of public parking. It is reasonable that a private developer authorized to utilize a public street or lot for private parking purposes to compensate the City for the use and maintenance ' 011 of that parking. The proportional cost to maintain an Old Town public parking space has been determined to be similar to the current actual cost of maintaining City parking facilities, landscaping, paving, etc., for County of Orange operation of the Tustin Library; $54 per space, with City administrative costs (10 %) and fee collection costs applied by the County Assessor (0.3 %), resulting in a total proposed annual fee of $60 per space waived (see Attachment 1 for fee calculation). A reasonable relationship exists between the need for the public facility and the type of development project on which the fee is imposed in that the implementation of the parking option provided in Ordinance No. 1416 would occur only upon a developer's request, and subsequent approval by the City. It is reasonable that the City receive compensation for the use and maintenance of any parking spaces approved to be located on an Old Town public street or lot. 11. Therefore, the Tustin City Council hereby determines that the parking fee authorized by Ordinance No. 1416 shall be $60 per parking space per year.

L x Source. 2009 Tustin Library Lease between the City of Tustin and the County of Orange, and extrapolation from costs associated with maintenance of the library parking lot m taken from the lost quarterly invoice (October to December). A. The costs described in this estimate are for the non-exclusive use of parking spaces as identified in the Old Town Parking Study and include use of public on-street parking spaces, the City's parking structure, the City's public water yard parking facility, etc. a Pursuant to an agreement between the County of Orange and City of Tustin, the County pays a proportionate 3S% share of the total costs to maintain the public parking area at the Tustin Library. Maintenance costs for the proportional use of Old Town public parking spaces could be ykmi|ar. The cost assumptions used above were taken from that agreement, with certain exceptions noted which were not believed mobe fully applicable *» this study. C All existing, available public spaces are currently being swept and are fully funded. However, the proposal to collect gS.8Vannually for street sweeping is intended to address the incremental soiling of a parking space, or to address storm water quality issues that may apply with the additional use allowed by Ordinance No. 1416. o. Electrical costs are incurred and paid for through a separate process by property owners in the area. The use ofan existing public parking space in Old Town, usauthorized hy Ordinance No. 1416, would not place an additional electrical cost burden on the community. This issue could be looked at|n the future, auneeded. E. The County of Orange has agreed to pay 35% of the costs associated with the use of the City's public parking area, The current study assumed only 33% usage of public parking spaces as authorized by Ordinance No. 1416. Consequently, the overall cost assumptions were reduced to address this proportional difference inuse. Resolution 12-27 Page 5 of 5
