for the designation and de-designation of public parking areas in the City (the "City's
Public Parking Area Ordinance"); and
WHEREAS, the designation of the Tustin Water Yard property as a public parking
area will not be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort, and general

parking will reduce the demand for on-street parking such that traffic flow will be
maximized and potential conflicts between pedestrians and motorists will be minimized;

the subject property, 'or with preexisting traffic patterns, as applicable in that the property is
presently used as a parking area and the use is not proposed to change following such
designation; and
WHEREAS, commercial proprietors in the area will need the property designated as
a public parking area to satisfy the parking demand from future development projects and
to supplement on-site and on-street parking; and
WHEREAS, the use of the property for public parking shall be non-exclusive, and
the City shall retain the right to concurrently use the property for whatever additional
purposes the City Manager reasonably determines are necessary or convenient and
consistent with such parking use; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Tustin City Code Section 7900 et. seq., the property shall
be held open to the general public solely for the purpose of temporary parking of
automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, or other motor-driven forms of transportation not in
excess of 6,000 pounds gross weight, subject to those conditions, rules, and regulations
which may be established by the City Council, or the City Manager pursuant to this
