The study examined the potential on-site parking impact of the elimination of seven (7) existing parking spaces as part of the proposed 2,000-square-foot Tool Rental Center development. Existing Conditions The existing on-site parking condition was surveyed during three time periods on Saturday, November 21, 1998, at 11:30 AM, 12:30 PM, and 2:30 PM. These time periods are typically the busiest hours of the week when on-site parking demand is usually highest at this store locations. The number of vehicles parked on the parking lot was counted for the above time periods. At 11:30 AM, there were approximately 315 parking spaces occupied, 316 spaces were occupied at 12:30 PM, and 290 spaces at 2:30 PM. Since the existing parking lot provides 462 spaces2 for customers, there was a parking surplus of approximately 146 spaces during the peak parking period (i.e., 462 - 316 = 146), or a 31 percent vacancy. This observed parking demand and overall condition was described by the store staff as the "typical" or "representative" peak parking condition for this store3. ' Telephone conversation with Mr. Mustafa Masood, Assistant Manager of Home-Depot (Santa Clara), 12/11/98. z During December, approximately 36 spaces were occupied for Christmas trees sales. 3 Conv rs~ti4n ~'~~ ~Tn, ~ s ~/~~Qo~~ ~tsft~~~~~nager o~~°~~i~~~'~°t~~f~~~C~i r~.11~~~i~i.ESrorv, sc • c;i ~ic~c~~, ii_ .i.

While the survey period represents a typical peak parking period, the "ultimate peak" parking demand could happen on a different day. In order to estimate this "ultimate peak" parking demand, the parking demand .collected on November 21, 199,8 was prorated based on the ratio of the store's total transaction of November 21 to that of the store's busiest day of the year. The total numbers of transactions of November 21 and the peak day of the year were 2,648 and 2,9204, respectively. Therefore, the "ultimate peak" parking demand of this store could be estimated at approximately 348 spaces (i.e., 316 * (2,920 / 2,648) = 348). As such, the existing parking .lot, which provides 462 spaces, is adequate to accommodate the ultimate peak parking demand. This also represents an overall 25 percent vacancy during the peak parking period. Proposed Project The proposed project will consist of a 2,000 square foot addition to the existing Home Depot store. The additional space will be used as a tool rental center that includes a large equipment storage cage (of approximately 800 square feet). In order to accommodate the additional space, Home Depot proposes to eliminate seven (7) existing parking spaces located near the front entrance of the store, thereby reducing the total parking supply to 455 spaces. The proposed tool rental center is not expected to increase the number of customers at the store because a similar facility is already available in the store. (This project will only involve re- organization of various departments within the store.) Therefore, the vehicle trip generation and parking demand at the site are also not expected to increase as a result of the additional space. Project Impacts As stated previously, the proposed expansion of the store would eliminate seven parking spaces from the existing parking lot, resulting in a total parking supply of 455 spaces. The City's parking code requires that one parking space be provided for every 200 square feet of gross floor area. With the additional space of 2,000 square-feet, the net gross floor area of the site would become 97,700 square feet (i.e., 95,700 + 2,000 s.f.), resulting in a parking requirement of 489 spaces (i.e., 97,700 s.f. / 200 spaces per s.f.). As a result, the parking supply of 455 spaces would not satisfy the City's parking requirement. 4 Source: Mr. Gary Lewis, Divisional Tool Rental Manager for Home Depot, December, 1998. Ms. Zulema Longoria January 15, 1999 Page 3 While the reduced parking supply would not meet the City's parking code, it is important to note that the actual parking demand at the site would be met, assuming the existing parking characteristics. As noted previously, the existing parking inventory indicates an approximately 25 percent vacancy rate during the peak parking period. Therefore, it can be concluded that the proposed addition of a 2,000 square foot Tool Rental Center, combined with a reduction of seven parking spaces, would not result in any practical parking shortfall. The peak parking demand of 348 spaces would be satisfied by the 455-space parking lot, and customers would continue to be able to find parking relatively easily at the sites. I hope. the information documented in this letter is helpful for your project. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments. Thanks. Very truly yours, WILBUR SMITH ASSOCIATES ason K. oo, P.E. Transportation Engineer JKL/jkl 337860 s The City's parking code is usually used in the planning process for new development. When this Home Depot store first opened, the site plan showed approximately 517 parking spaces, which met the City's code fora 98 ksf retail store (based on 1 space per Z00 s.f.). Later, 55 spaces were eliminated as a result of the development of the Carl's Jr. Restaurant located on the same parcel, and this brought the parking supply level below the City's standard. Nevertheless, as shown by the existing parking inventory, the site still has a parking vacancy rate of about 30 percent, indicating that parking does not appear to be a problem. 3800 W.

Batt, Governor The plans and specifications for the subject project appear to meet State of Idaho standards and are conditionally approved based on the conditions listed below. We recommend that the District Health Department lift sanitary restrictions. STANDARD CONDITIONS• A. The standard conditions on the Division of Environmental Quality (DEQ) review stamp are part of this approval. Any supporting reports or documents are considered to be part of the approved documents. B. This approval will be voided if: 1) construction is not completed by June 8, 1999; 2) the project is improperly constructed, operated, or maintained; or 3) the project fails to function as intended. D. Within thirty days after construction, the professional engineer shall provide DEQ with a letter of certification stating that the project was installed with no deviations from the approved plans. PROJECT SPECIFIC CONDITION A. As stated in the Ground Water Quality Rule, IDAPA 16.01.11, any activity with the potential to degrade the quality of an aquifer must be managed at least to maintain the existing ground water quality through the use of best management practices (BMPs), or best practical methods (BPMs) to the maximum extent practical (IDAPA 16.01.11.301). Your development, with the storm water runoff disposal proposed, could degrade ground water quality. Therefore, all storm water drainage basins, seepage beds, and appurtenant structures shall conform to the Catalog of Storm Water Best Management Practices for Idaho Cities and Counties (issued by DEQ in August, 1997), or equivalent.

Busch Re: Home Depot Site in Meridian, Idaho Message consists of 2 page(s) including cover sheet Following this fax is a copy of a portion of the Civil Site Plan for the referenced project. This plan shows the addition of the Tool Rental Space on the northwest comer of the building. Prior to this change the parking space count had a surplus of 7 spaces. Following are the addition and deletions generated by this revision: Addition 2000 S.F. = 10 additional spaces required. Loss of parking due to building =16 spaces lost. As you. will note, this revisions results in a deficiency of 19 parking spaces. The adjacent site, Waremari, has a surplus of l94 parking stall. it is our understanding, that ifthere is a shazed parking agreement between 1Tome Depot and Wazemart, then future parking stalls for Waremart• could be utilized to provide the required parking. The 19 stalls required, however, would need to be constructed with this installation and the shared pazling agreement would need to be provided to your office. Another item that was discussed was regarding the revision needing to be revisited with the City Council. This revision, also as discussed, does not appear to be a major change and review by the City Council may not be necessary.
