Sonya,
Please find attached the traffic analysis for Woodcrest. In general, the report finds that there is currently sufficient
parking within the existing commercial lots and the townhome site plan provides adequate parking capacity for the
estimated demand for the 19 unites.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Andrew

RE: Woodcrest Townhomes
This memorandum summarizes the results of a parking analysis performed for the proposed
Woodcrest Townhomes development in Meridian, Idaho. It addresses the following topics:
■ Estimated parking demand for the proposed development
■ Existing parking supply and demand on adjacent commercial lots
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed Woodcrest Townhomes development consists of 19 townhomes. It would be
located southwest of Hickory Way, east of Grapewood Drive, and north of Fairview
Avenue. Figure 1 illustrates the project location.

ESTIMATED PARKING DEMAND
The project team used the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publication Parking
Generation, 4th Edition to estimate the parking demand of the proposed Woodcrest
Townhomes development. Table 1 illustrates the estimated parking demand during a
typical weekday peak period. The weekday period is shown as the manual notes that
parking demand typically peaks for townhomes during weekdays, so parking demand
would be expected to be less during the weekend.
Table 1 Estimated Peak Weekday Parking Demand
Land Use ITE Parking Demand
..- (Spaces)
Townhouse 230 19 27
The peak parking demand is expected to be 27 vehicles. Based on the current site plan,
shown in Attachment "A," the development is expected to provide more than 27 off-street
spaces (i.e., 40 spaces from 12 townhomes with 2-car garages (24 spaces), 7 townhomes
with single-car garages (7 spaces), and 9 dedicated off-street spaces).
EXISTING ADJACENT PARKING SUPPLY AND DEMAND
The project team inventoried parking supply and demand at four adjacent commercial
properties. The project team coordinated with the owner of Louie's Pizza & Italian
Restaurant to understand when demand peaks at the restaurant. These lots were
inventoried during weekday and weekend peak periods covering both the lunch (i.e., 12 -
1 p.m.) and evening (i.e., 5-8 p.m.) periods in August 2021 on the days when business is
typically the busiest at the restaurant. Figure 2 illustrates the four lots evaluated.
Attachment "B" contains the complete parking data inventory.

Parking utilization of the individual commercial lots ranges from Oho to 69%.
Kittelson&Associates,Inc. Page: 3 of 1
Project#: 26880.0 Woodcrest Townhomes
The subdivision containing these lots has a cross-parking agreement. Therefore, we
examined combined parking supply and availability. Overall, parking utilization across the
four lots combined ranges from a low of about 12% during the weekend lunch (12 - 1 p.m.)
period to a high of approximately 55% during the weekday lunch (12- 1 p.m.) period.
There was observed to be more than 70 available spaces across the four lots during each
observed period.
SUMMARY
There is currently sufficient parking within the existing commercial lots to handle their typical
weekday and weekend peak demands. No lot was observed to be over 70% full during this
study. The current site plan for the proposed Woodcrest Townhomes development also
provides adequate capacity for the estimated typical peak parking demand for 19
townhomes.
