Recommendation Authorize the following actions relative to the City of Redding's Downtown Parking Program: (1) Accept the Downtown Redding parking oral report; (2) Adopt Resolution to amend the Traffic Control Map as noted on Exhibit A and below: (a) Modify certain areas of Oregon Street, between Tehama and Yuba Streets from a two-hour parking zone to a four-hour parking zone. (b) On both sides of Yuba Street from Oregon Street to Railroad Avenue, modify the two-hour parking zone to a free 30-minute parking zone. (c) Modify the 12-minute parking zone on the east side of Oregon Street, to the north of Placer Street to include ten, two-hour parking stalls and five, free 30-minute parking stalls. (d) Add a loading zone for the two parking stalls on the north side of Shasta Street to the immediate east of Market Street; and (3) Find that the action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to 14 CCR 15601(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption). Fiscal Impact On October 18, 2022, the City Council (Cauncil) appraved moving ta a pay sta�ion-based parking system. The parking rate was adjusted to $1.00 per hour at the time with 175 monthly employee parking permits authorized for off-street, long-term parking in the City of Redding (City) managed lots. The system was fully implemented in March 2023. On September 5, 2023, staff presented an update to Council and changes were implemented that ineluded: employee parking permit cap was increased from 175 to 300; additional employee permit exempt on-street spaces were made available; and it was recommended to reduce two exterior leased lots. It was projected that with these changes, expenses would roughly equal revenues and there would be minimal General Fund impact. Report to Redding City Council Apri111,2024 Re: 9.12(b)--Update to the Downtown Redding Parking Program Page 2 At the September update, the data illustrated that expenses, including all of the capital expenses for implementation, (�$32,000/month) were exceeding revenues (�$22,000/month). After the changes were implemented the parking program saw permit sales increase from about 175 to 235 a month, a reduction in parking 1ot lease costs, and a general increase in hourly parking sales. These changes have increased revenues (�$26,000/month) and reduced expenses (N$31,000/month), and it appears as the weather warms and new businesses Downtown continue to be developed, the program will be on track to come closer to attaining full cost recovery in the near future. The parking mitigation fund from the sale of the California Street parking garage is backfilling any shortfalls, and should be sufficient to help the program reach expense-revenue neutrality. It should also be noted that the City will own the pay stations following the five-year lease period which will reduce expenses by approximately $12,000 per month. However, the City should anticipate additional expenses to maintain and replace the pay stations in the City inventory as they age and wear. Staff is tracking warranty expenses, not currently charged to the City under the lease agreement, to better gauge potential future costs. Alternative Action The Council may choose not to accept this report or adopt this resolution and provide staff alternative direction. In either case, staff would need time to analyze Council's direction with the intent of operating a Downtown Redding parking system that is revenue neutral and avoids requesting general funds to backfill expenditures that may exceed revenues. Background/flnalysis As a result of the last update to the Council on September 5, 2023, one of staff directives was to keep an open line of communication with Downtown businesses and to come back in six months with results of the changes. Staff continues to make the necessary updates, address concerns, and have conversations with individual property owners. Staff has been able to address many of the individual concerns and continues to collect data to ensure parking is accomplishing the goal of a successful Downtown. Business Communications — Staff regularly meets with various Downtown business groups to keep abreast of changes as new businesses continue to open and existing businesses relocate. A recent conversation with Michelle Goedert, one of the main leasing agents representing more of the legacy property owners Downtown, has relayed information that in general lease rates are rising and demand is high. In one recent example, at 1506 and 1518 Market Street, Shasta County Children Services vacated the building and they were quickly leased with an expansion of Extreme Escape Rooms with a new selfie room as well as opening of The Salt Cave and Area 151, a new virtual reality gaming experience. The new leases, which are more active and conducive to a thriving Downtown, are a positive indictor to the property owners that these changes are headed in the right direction. In a conversation with Chris Haedrich of Capital Rivers Commercial, who represents K2 and the McConnel Foundation Downtown, it was relayed that more than 60 percent of Market Center has signed leases and are in some stage of design, which represents the entire Redding Public Market. IIe mentioned that the remaining 40 percent of space has signed letters of intent with a good mix of retail and dining, and is confident the new uses wi11 a11 be announced in the coming Report to Redding City Council Apri111,2024 Re: 9.12(b)--Update to the Downtown Redding Parking Program Page 3 weeks. They are excited to list the 20,000 square feet of retail space around "The Paseo" alley and California Street, and he is confident that those spaces wi11 also be leased quickly. Mr. Haedrich also mentioned that the Ribcage restaurant and residential unit project at the corner of Shasta and Market Street is on track to start construction this year, while the Shasta Bike Depot recently opened at Bell P1aza and the Pipeline restaurant is under construction, with an expected opening date during the summer of 2024. Mr. Haedrich mentioned that as walking tours of the sites are conducted with the potential. lessors, they key in on the fact that there are always a few empty parking spaces along parcel frontages and there is ample foot traffic. One benefit of providing employee parking a block or two away is the increased employee foot traffic has potential to benefit other businesses along the routes. All of the leased spaces that are in a stage of development are now dependent on a functioning parking system and a well-managed parking supply. The new businesses in Market Center alone wi11 bring hundreds of new jobs, employees and customers to the Downtown core. Mr. Haedrich advised that the biggest challenge will be directing a11 the new employees and customers to the available parking spaces around the core, and that the Downtown area could use additional wayfinding to the underutilized areas. Occupancy Rates —The on-street occupancy rates have been relatively consistent in the core on 1Vlarket Street at around 80-90 percent. Outside of the core, the rates quickly decrease to an average about 50 percent with locally higher and lower blocks depending on the uses. It is noted that the occupancy pressure has been relatively low, since Market Center has not opened and the City has been able to temporarily lease the 116 spaces on California Street between Yuba Street and Placer Road. This will need to be closely monitored for the next six months to ensure adequate occupancy rates continue. No changes in this zone are currently proposed. Shasta County Courthouse — At the September meeting there were some concerns about the opening of the courthouse but any changes were delayed until the courthouse opened allowing additional data to be collected. Since the Courthouse opened in February 2023, the situation has changed and now the occupancy rate along Oregon, Butte and Yuba Streets surrounding the Courthouse have increased. The adjacent business owners have contacted staff to ensure that there is adequate enforcement in this area and inquired if there could be additional enforcement of these zones as the occupancy rates have risen. The data is consistent with business owners concerns - on Tuesday mornings the area exceeds 90 percent occupancy from 8:00 a.m. to approximately 11:00 a.m., then quickly opens up. In a conversation with Melissa Bradley-Fowler of the Superior Court of California, County of Shasta (the Courts), it was explained that the Courts is working with Shasta County to obtain the parking lot on the east side of Oregon Street, that was formerly a County vehicle pool parking lot and the designated juror parking lot. The Courts plan is to obtain the entire lot with approximately 158 spaces within the juror area and an additional 62 spaces in the fenced Shasta County vehicle pool lot for a total of 220 spaces and utilize it for courthouse employee and juror parking. The issue at hand is that there are approximately 200 em�ployees and, depending on the day, has the potential to include 200 jurors on the busiest mornings. The jurors arrive around 9:00 a.m. mostly on Tuesdays and a lessor amount on Wednesday and Thursdays. On Tuesdays, data shows that parking pressure is reduced by 11:00 a.m. to noon and is manageable the other times of the week. Report to Redding City Council Apri111,2024 Re: 9.12(b)--Update to the Downtown Redding Parking Program Page 4 Staff has reviewed the current data, and deter�nined that a time limited four-hour paid zone near the Courthouse would allow the jurors or Court employees to overflow onto the street. This four- hour zone, if limited to the east side of Oregon Street between Tehama Street and Yuba Street and the west side of Oregon along the Courthouse frontage, would help provide roughly 75 spaces for jurors to utilize during the impacted mornings. Juror summons generally require a commitment of roughly three hours before and three hours after the lunch period which will allow jurors to utilize the overflow on-street parking without fear of receiving a citation or requiring their vehicle to relocated. There appears to be adequate capacity to allow this change without negatively impacting the neighboring businesses. Additionally, customers of the surrounding businesses may also benefit from these longer time zones. The proposed changes are shown on the attached traffic control map. The spaces around the courthouse on Butte and Yuba Streets are not proposed to be changed at this time because data shows the need for a large number of short-term users of the Courthouse and surrounding businesses. United States Post Office — At the September meeting, Council also asked staff to take one more look at the short-term parking spaces around the Post Office. Given the Post Office's close proximity to the new Courthouse and the associated recommended parking updates, staff felt this was the appropriate time to evaluate the Post Office area as well. To better accommodate Post Office users, it is proposed to take 10 of the existing fifteen, 12-minute limit, free parking zone spaces along the west side of the Post Office along Oregon Street and convert them to a four- hour paid parking zone. Staff then recommends taking the remaining five parking stalls on Oregon Street just south of Yuba and making them a 30-minute limit free parking zone. The other recommended modification to the parking program at this time is to convert the 12 spaces in front of the Post Office on both sides of Yuba Street from two-hour limit paid to 30-minute limit free parking zone. Additional signage will also be modified to clearly indicate that the 30- minute limit parking stalls are free. The parking program is committed to remaining dynamic as the needs of Downtown continually shift and change. The recommended parking program modifications requested by the attached Resolution will help to work towards that end. The Resolution has been approved to form by the City Attorney. Environmental Review Staff has reviewed this action and determined that it is exempt from review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), per Section 15061(b)(3) — Common Sense Exemption. CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. It ean be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the action may have a significant effect on the environment; therefore, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The City has an existing paid parking zone that is being modified. The proposed modifications will affect the locations of parked vehicles and may encourage mode shift, carpooling and transit use. The proposed changes, while not significant, will assist in the City's goals of increasing parking availability to Downtown Redding while also helping to reach environmental goals.
