DISCUSSION:
Application Rec�uest
The applicant, Fancher Development, on behalf of Islands Restaurants, is requesting a Use Permit to
operate a bar within a recently approved restaurant pad building (Building F) and to extend the
restaurant closing hours until 12am Sundays through Fridays and until 1am on Saturdays. The General
Commercial (CG) Ordinance requires that the Planning Commission review and approve requests for
restaurants with separate bar facilities as well as business operating hours past 11pm.
Islands' Operational Details
Islands is a family oriented restaurant catered to lunch and dinner customers. The restaurant anticipates
a demand for the extended hours due to the non-traditional work hours of local technology companies.
The restaurant proposes to restrict entrance into the restaurant at 11pm Sundays through Fridays and at
12am on Saturdays,and will continue its operations for one hour after doors are closed.
The restaurant proposes 206 regular seats, 14 bar seats, and 15 employees per shift. The bar area is
integrated within the restaurant. Typically only 12 percent of Islands' business consists of alcoholic
beverage sales. The applicant has prepared a security plan to address safety measures for restaurant
patrons and employees (Attachment 2).
See Attachment 3 for a letter from Islands regarding the proposed restaurant and Attachment 4 for the
trash and delivery plan.
Protimity to Residential Area
The new restaurant building will be located approximately 310 feet from the nearest residential property
and further away from the residential neighbors than the previous Marie Callender's restaurant
building. In addition, the new restaurant building will be buffered by newly enhanced parking lots with
shading trees. The new restaurant will also be required to install an odor abatement system,to minimize
any potential odor impacts to the surrounding neighborhood.
9
U-2012-01 Islands Restaurant Bar and Extended Hours March 13, 2012
The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office has reviewed the project and does not foresee any security
concerns or negative impacts to the surrounding neighborhood.
Elephant Bar on Stevens Creek Blvd. and BJ's on De Anza Blvd. are examples of other similar existing
restaurants with late night hours. Both examples have not had a history of enforcement concerns.
Elephant Bar is closer to a residential area than Islands.
A condition of approval has been added to require the property owner to address security concerns in the
event that they arise and reimburse the City in the event of additional Sheriff's enforcement time. Given
the fact that the restaurant is located over 300 feet from any residential uses and that there is not a history
of security concerns at the shopping center, staff supports the proposed restaurant hours of operation.
Parking
The project area parking supply was reviewed and approved by the City Council in November 2011
based on a comprehensive shopping center parking study by Hexagon Transportation Consultants, Inc.
The Council approved the project based upon a special parking survey study prepared by Hexagon over
the City's standard parking ratios. The project was approved with a project area (from Vista Eye Center
to the eastern edges of Pizza Hut and Staples) supply of 625 spaces and an entire shopping center (from
De Anza Blvd to Fontana's Restaurant) supply of 1,025 spaces (which includes the Council's direction to
reduce four stalls in order to preserve the existing specimen Oak tree). The shopping center was allowed
to have a maximum of 15 percent eating establishments, including Islands and other existing food uses
in the shopping center,with the assumption that all tenants in new Building E are going to be food uses.
Since the November 2011 Council approval, the project has undergone several modifications
summarized as follows:
• Proposal of a 14-seat bar within Islands
• Updates to the employee and seat counts within Islands and new Building E (resulting in a net
reduction of one required parking stall)
• Updates to the type of eating establishments in Building E (uses with lower parking requirements)
= Revisions to the parking lot striping for a gain of two additional stalls in the project area for a total of
627 stalls (4.34 spaces per 1,000 square feet), a gain of three parking stalls in the entire shopping
center's supply for a total of 1,028 stalls (4.68 spaces per 1,000 square feet).
Hexagon was retained by the City to analyze the updated project data and to confirm that the project
still provides adequate parking consistent with the Council's previous approval (see Attachment 5).
It should be noted that if the City's standard parking ratios were used, the project would be deficient in
parking by 77 stalls. This deficit has been improved by three stalls from the original Council approval
due to the maxitnized parking lot striping and less parking-intensive food uses proposed in the new
Building E. However, the City's standard parking ratios are intended to apply to single uses on stand-
alone parcels and do not account for the complex and dynamic parking demands of a multi-use
shopping center. Therefore, the City's parking ordinance provides for alternative parking studies to
more accurately analyze the parking demand for more complex projects.
Hexagon's supplemental parking study compared the proposed parking supply with parking surveys
from three similar shopping centers in the region,nationally recognized parking rates from the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE), and the parking rates from the Urban Land Institute (ULI). The
shopping centers surveyed contain tenants with high parking demand such as fast food restaurants
and/or popular grocery stores like 99 Ranch Market. However, the percentage of restaurants in these
centers was 10 percent. Therefore,the parking demand was adjusted to account for the 15 percent eating
establishments in this project.
10
U-2012-01 Islands Restaurant Bar and Extended Hours March 13, 2012
The following is a summary from the parking study. The proposed parking rate for the project area:
• Exceeds the highest surveyed parking rates from the other shopping centers by at least 25 spaces (104
spaces for the entire center)
• Exceeds the ITE rate by 118 spaces (247 spaces for the entire shopping center)
• Exceeds the ULI rate by 31 spaces (115 spaces for the entire shopping center)
Hexagon's parking survey methodology takes in account all types of restaurants, including those with
interior bar areas. The study emphasized the size of the restaurants as opposed to number of seats or
employees. Therefore, the proposed Island's bar addition alone is not anticipated to significantly
increase the parking demand of the shopping center. Hexagon's study also considered the peak parking
demand for the restaurant and fast food uses for the project occurring at different times of the day. For
the above reasons,the revised project and its parking supply are considered adequate to meet its parking
demand. Consequently, staff supports the proposed project.
As a condition of the project, the property owner will be required to fund a parking survey a year after
completion of the two new building pads. Any future requests for additional restaurants or other
parking-intensive uses would have to be accompanied with a parking survey. Further, if complaints or
concerns are received by the City in the future, the City has the ability to require additional measures as
deemed necessary (e.g. valet parking for the restaurant uses).
OTHER DEPARTMENT/AGENCY REVIEW
The City's Public Works Department, Building Division, the Santa Clara County Fire Department, and
the Cupertino Sanitary District reviewed the request and have no objections to the project. Their pre-
hearing comments have been incorporated as conditions of approval. The State Department of Alcoholic
Beverage Control (ABC) is also reviewing Islands' request for a Type 47 Liquor License (On-Site Sale of
Beer,Wine, and Spirits). The City Council will review the application at their Apri13,2012 meeting.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) per section
15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines.
CONCLUSION
Staff supports the proposed bar, extended hours, and parking modifications to the project since they are
not anticipated to have significant impacts to the neighborhood and are consistent with the original
Council approval.

� Rflb6eries are highiy volatile crises where your em�loyees rely on you to be calm and in controf for their safety
� and your own, Knowing how to hand�e a robbery can expedite the proCess and get the robber out af the
' tauilding as fast as possible.
'I Assess the S[tua'kion �
' ❑ If a rol�E�er has entered the buildin and has not come in cnntact with ou et—CALL 911
� The robber's state af mind is crucial,The robber may be straight, under the influence of altohal ar drugs, q�iet,
� screaming,abusi�e, non-abusive,calm,wilcf, experienced or inex�erienced. Be alert—yau may come in tantact
with the rabber shor�ly.
Be prepared to follow these steps:
• qo not resist—E�en if you don't see a weapan,assusne there is one. 1'ry to expedite the process so the
f robber is out of the restaurant as quickly as passible. Do not trv to be a hera. Gi��the rob6er what he or
she wants ancf�et him or her out of the store as puickly and safelv as possible.
i • Wand over control-Generally, a robber seeks ta establish control.Th{s may invol�e showing a weapon
� or threatening�iolence.Onte the robber feels that he ar she has c�ntrol,the robber generaily will seek
i ta g�t the valuahles and get out as soon as possible.
• Gain clarificati�n--If yau dan't understand what the robber is telling you, calmly ask far clarification.
• Stay under control-As a manager,you must remain in control of your responses. If you lose control,the
� danger in the situa#ion will increase rapidly.
• lCnow your panEc buttons--Panic buttons are usually in the bar and the ofFice. Know where they are to
determine if it is reasona�le use them. �o not put yourself at risk reathing for a panic button!!
� • po nothing to provoke tF�e robber-Do not argue. Do not make eye contact or stare at the robber.
Watch your body language, and avnid doing anything the robber rnight perceive as a threat. Keep your
hands in plain sight.
• Do not surprise the robber-A�oid sudden noises or movetnents.�ell the robber exactly what you are
doing with ea�h step yau take. inform the robber if you have to reach for something or if something will
rnake an unexpected noise.
• Keep the robber on tra�k- Let the robber know ti�at the man�y is quickly available. �'he level of
vioience in robberies usually accelerates gradually, by stages. If the robber is becoming increasingly
viofent or abusive,or if there has a{ready E�een violence,the situatinn is much more dangerous.
Ro6beries by ex-employees are statistically mare dangeraus.�ry to keep�he ro�ber on track, Letthe
ro�ber know that the money is quickEy a�ailable.
• Pra�€de leadership-Tryto keep the empfoyees from losing contrvi or pro�oking the robbar.
0 If a robber i�as 'ust robbecf ou com ase ourself-- our uests and em lo ees are oin #o need ou.
• No heroics-After the rof�bery, immediately take steps ta secure the buifding and its occupants ancf
prese�ve the crime scene.
• Dan't follaw the robber out af the huilding- If the police are outside,t�ey will not know you from a
robber. If you are uncertain if the �abber has left the building,stay where you are until the police arri�e.
• Calf 911 as soon as safety perr�its-Call 911 rather than using th�sifent alarm as the police wili arrive
faster.

Re: Islands Restaurant @ Crossroads Shopping Center
20750 Stevens Creek Blvd.
Cupertino,CA
' Dear Mr. Schroeder:
Islands Restaurants has applied for a Conditional Use Permit to the City of Cupertino.Within this
application,we have requested extended operating hours,to allow our restaurant to remain open
past the normal operating hours of l lpm for certain days of the week.
'', Islands Restaurants is a 30 year old restaurant company, originated in California and based in San
', Diego County.Although the profile of our guest consists of all age groups,primarily those guests
reflect families, small group gatherings,professionals and business clientele. Our business is
, normally split 45%lunch business and 55%dinner business and is not typically a late night
' operation.Yet each location is different and we have often tailored our operating hours to meet
the demands and demographics of our guests. Certainly we wish to offer service as the
circumstances require. Cupertino is a unique city with a workforce that does not operate
necessarily on a 9am to Spm work schedule. With a large sector of the local workforce arriving
and leaving work on a unique schedule(due to the high tech employers and other non-traditional
businesses in the immediate area), if the demand arises,we wish to offer extended operating
hours.
Typically our restaurants offer a closing time of l lpm, Sunday thru Thursday and close at .
midnight Friday and Saturday evenings.After that time,we would no longer be open to guests
that would like to enter the restaurant but would continue to serve existing guests until one hour
after closing.These operating hours would seem appropriate and accommodate the potential
demands in Cupertino as well.
Islands is in the food service business with alcohol offered as a compliment to meals. We are not
a bar focused business. Our restaurants typically serve 12%alcohol sales as a percentage of
overall sales.We serve 12%non-alcoholic beverages(soda, smoothies,coffee, etc.) and 76%
food.This percentage of alcohol sales is quite a bit lower than other nearby full service restaurant
competitors.

li
We certainly wish to remain a good neighbor within Cupertino and provide ample systems to
iassure guests and neighbors are treated respectfully at all times. Our management and employees
� are trained in focusing on all guests needs and to always assure the requests of these guests come
i first.Yet we also understand we have a responsibility to assure our guests,neighbors and
employees are safe,do not overindulge while enjoying our restaurant and recognize inappropriate
late night activities around our restaurant may have an effect on others in the neighborhood.As
I! the restaurant entry will be located close to Stevens Creek Boulevard,we believe we can keep
, activities of our resta.urant away from any adjacent use.With the service and trash areas fully
contained within the restaurant building,we can better assure the safety of our employees but also
restrict noise that may be related to back-of-house kitchen activity. We have been successful in
I retaining good neighborhood relationships in our urban and suburban locations and feel confident
�� we can do so in the Crossroads Shopping Center in Cupertino as well.
i
i Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions regarding the above

Re: Parking Study at 20750 Stevens Creek Boulevard
Revised March 7, 2012
Dear George:
This letter report documents the analysis and findings of the supplemental parking demand study at the
Crossroads Shopping Center located at 20750 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino.
BACKGROUND
The Crossroads Shopping Center includes a variety of retail stores, restaurants and specialty stores. The
total building size of the shopping center is 219,891 square feet, and there are 1,028 on-site parking
spaces. A project was approved by the City Council in November 2011 to demolish an existing 4,930
square foot restaurant building pad (formerly occupied by Marie Callendar's) and construct a new 5,086
square foot restaurant building pad (Building F). In addition, the project included a new 7,855 square foot
building with food uses to be constructed within another parking lot in the shopping center (Building E).
The total net increase in building area will be 8,011 square feet—see Figure 1. The previous parking study
conducted by Hexagon in August 2011 took the City's Ordinance ratios, ITE and ULI parking rates, and
actual surveys of similar shopping centers in the region into account. The City Council approved the
project relying on the previous study methodology with the condition that the center shall not exceed 15
percent cumulative restaurants, and that the parking be reviewed a year after project completion.
The shopping center is divided into three areas: A, B, and C. Area A delineates the project area, and the
parking spaces shown in this area would generally be used by patrons visiting the businesses located in
this area. Area B is owned by the same owner as area A while area C is owned by a different owner.
However, there is reciprocal access between all shopping center parcels. The existing 4,930 square foot
building (formerly occupied by Marie Callendar's and colored red in the existing plan)will be demolished
and replaced by a new 5,086 square foot building located in the same general area—shown in green on
the proposed site plan. The new building will be occupied by a restaurant, and the parking lot at this site
will be redesigned. Figure 1 also shows the location of the second new building. This building will be
constructed on the existing parking lot on the northeast side of the project area, and this parking lot will
also be redesigned. The buildings and the parking spaces in areas B and C will not change, with the
exception of re-striping to maximize stalls in Area B.
The project has undergone several modifications since the November 2011 approval, including the
proposed addition of a 14-seat interior bar area in Building F; changes to employee and seat counts in
both buildings; changes to the type of eating establishments in Building E; and the net gain of two
additional parking stalls in Area A but with the net loss of one parking stall in the entire shopping center's
supply. Tables 1A, 1 B, and 1 C provide summaries of the various businesses in areas A, B, and C,
respectively. The yellow shaded area in Table 1A shows the project uses.
The purpose of this supplemental report is to analyze all of the updated/revised project data and confirm
whether the project provides adequate parking consistent with the November 2011 City Council approval.
The various parking demand methodologies used in this analysis are outlined below.

METHODOLOGY
Standard City Ordinance Rates
The City of Cupertino provides standard parking rates (Municipal Code Section 19.124)for general
categories of land uses that are common in the City. These general rates are standardized over sample
surveys collected over time and across a broad range of locations throughout the nation. Many of the
sample survey locales do not necessarily reflect the demographic profile of Cupertino. These individual
parking ratios are appropriate to provide general parking demand estimates for standalone uses but do not
consider other dynamic and complex factors that may be associated with a large shopping center in
Cupertino. The City of Cupertino Municipal Code recognizes the potential inaccuracies of these standard
parking ratios, and therefore provides provisions (Section 19.124.040 F-H)to allow more in-depth and
accurate studies to be conducted by parking professionals when measuring parking demand for more
complex projects located in Planned Development Zones, such as the Crossroads Shopping Center.
Please refer to Tables 1A, 1 B and 1 C for a summary of the project parking requirements by applying the
stand-alone City parking standards. At the bottom of each table, a summary of the number of required and
available parking spaces is provided.
Based on the City's standard standalone parking ratio methodology, the revised project parking supply for
area A would increase by three stalls (by 9 percent) from the previous approval (from an 80 space deficit
to a 77 space deficit). The main reason for the reduced deficit is because the original parking analysis
assumed that all of building E was either full service or fast food restaurant uses, whereas the revised
proposal contains 31 percent full service or fast food restaurants and 69 percent specialty foods, which
require fewer parking spaces. Project area A would provide 4.34 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet
(ksf) of building area while the City Parking Code requires 4.87 spaces per ksf for this area. The parking
supply for areas B and C meet the City's individual parking requirements. The shopping center as a whole
would provide 4.68 parking spaces per ksf, whereas the standard parking code requires 5.01 spaces per
ksf.
Although the total number of parking spaces in the project area A would be inadequate compared to the
City's standards, it does not necessarily mean that the project area would have insufficient parking to
accommodate anticipated demand. In order to determine the reasonableness of the City's rates, Hexagon
conducted an analysis to estimate the number of parking spaces for the Crossroads Shopping Center by
using three other alternative methodologies/sources:
• ITE
• Urban Land Institute (ULI)
• Local Parking Surveys
The ITE and ULI sources contain parking data for shopping centers that typically consist of general
merchandise stores, convenience stores, a mix of eating establishments, including fast food places,
restaurants with and without bar seating, specialty stores, apparel stores and sometimes grocery stores,
cinemas and offices.
ITE Parking Rates
The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Parking Generation, 4rd Edition contains parking data for a
wide range of land uses, including shopping centers. ITE's Land Use type 820 provides parking demand
rates for various sizes of shopping centers on weekdays and weekends. ITE rates for shopping centers
were developed from field surveys from about 20 shopping centers located throughout the United States.
The data show a coefficient of determination (RZ) of 98°/o for the average parking demand on weekdays,
which means that there is a very strong correlation between the size (number of ksf) and the parking
demand of the shopping centers that were surveyed, which is why square footage is a more accurate
demand indicator than employee or seat counts.

The ITE parking rates for shopping centers assume that the building area for dining establishments does
not exceed 10°/o of the total building area of the shopping center. With the proposed project, about 15% of
the entire Crossroads Shopping Center would consist of restaurants and fast food places. For project area
A, dining establishments would comprise 14% of the building area. Since dining establishments have much
higher parking rates compared to retail stores, the ITE standard parking rate for shopping center needs to
be modified to estimate the parking demand. The Urban Land Institute Shared Parking manual
recommends increasing the parking rate by 0.03 spaces per ksf for each percent of dining area above the
10% threshold. Therefore, the parking rates listed in the ITE Parking Generation manual were increased
by 4 x 0.03 =0.12 for project area A and by 5 x 0.03 =0.15 spaces/ksf for the entire shopping center. Table
2 shows the parking demand on weekdays and Saturdays based on the ITE parking rates for shopping
centers, adjusted for the larger share of dining places per the ULI Shared Parking Manual.

Based on Building Size Area A of 144,601 s.f. and 14% Dining Area
Z Based on Total Shopping Center Size of 219,891 s.f. and 15% of Dining Area
Copies of the relevant pages of the trip ITE Parking Generation Manual for Shopping Centers are included
in the back of this letter report. Table 2 shows that the parking rate would be the highest on Saturdays.
Using the 85th percentile parking rate (which means that 85% of the surveys had peak demand rates lower
than the 85th percentile rate) of 3.52 spaces per ksf and applying a 10% circulation factor, the design
parking rate for area A would be 3.52 x 1.1 = 3.87 spaces per ksf of building area. This rate of 3.87 is
lower than the area A parking supply rate of 4.34 spaces/ ksf. The design rate for the entire shopping
center would be 3.55 x 1.1 = 3.91 spaces per ksf. This rate is also lower than the supply rate of 4.68
spaces/ksf for the entire shopping center.
Urban Land Institute
The Parking Requirements for Shopping Centers, Second Edition of the Urban Land Institute is a
publication that contains comprehensive parking data at shopping centers. Based on a survey of nearly
500 shopping centers and parking counts at 169 centers, this reference manual contains solid data on
parking standards for shopping centers. This publication recommends a parking ratio for shopping centers
under 400,000 square feet of 4.0 spaces per 1,000 square feet of occupied gross leasable area. As noted
earlier in this letter report, the Urban Land Institute Shared Parking manual recommends increasing the
parking rate by 0.03 spaces per ksf for each percent of dining area above the 10°/o threshold. Using the
base rate of 4.0 spaces/ksf and adjusting the rate for the share of dining establishments the ULI
recommended rate for area A is 4.12 spaces/ksf and 4.15 spaces/ksf would be needed for the entire
shopping center. Based on these rates, the parking requirement for area A would be 596 spaces, while the
entire shopping center would need 913 stalls to accommodate the demand. Project area A provides 31
more spaces compared to the ULI recommendation (627-596). The entire shopping center exceeds the
ULI recommended number of spaces by 115 (1,028-913).

Parking Surveys
Specific shopping center parking counts have been completed for other projects in Cupertino. In order to
determine the parking needs for the PW Market/Homestead Retail Expansion Project in Cupertino, parking
surveys were conducted at three shopping centers: Homestead Square Shopping Center in Cupertino,
Mariposa Shopping Center in Santa Clara, and Grand Park Plaza in Mountain View. The surveys were
conducted by Fehr and Peers in February of 2010. Relevant pages of the parking analysis at these three
shopping centers are included in the back of this letter report. The Homestead Square and the Mariposa
Shopping Centers are similar in size and mix of use compared to the Crossroads Shopping Center. It
should be noted that although these two sample shopping centers are similar to the Crossroads Shopping
Center in terms of size and mix of use, their share of dining establishments is 10 percent or less of the total
size of the shopping centers compared to the 15 percent at the Crossroads Shopping Center. However, all
shopping centers contain tenants with parking demand greater than typical restaurants, such as 99 Ranch
Market in Grand Park Plaza and fast food restaurants like Taco Bell and Carl's Jr. in the Homestead and
Mariposa shopping centers. The survey analysis does adjust for the minor dining establishment
discrepancy as discussed below.
The results of these surveys indicate that weekday peak parking rates vary from 2.13 to 2.75 spaces/ ksf
and weekend peak parking rates vary from 1.83 to 2.88 parking spaces per ksf. Since the parking surveys
were conducted in February, a seasonal adjustment factor is applied to make sure that the parking
demand is reflective of the activities in these centers throughout the year (except for December). In
accordance with the Shared Parking, Second Edition from the Urban Land Institute, a monthly adjustment
factor for February of 1.26 is added. A circulation factor of 10% is also applied to the demand rate to
account for peak parking times when the demand is high so that spaces are relatively easy to access and
vehicles do not have to circulate through the entire parking area to find available spaces. Furthermore, the
demand rate is adjusted by 0.12 spaces/ksf for area A and by 0.15 spaces/ksf for the entire shopping
center to reflect the relatively higher share of restaurants in the Crossroads Shopping Center compared to
some of the sample centers previously mentioned. Based on all of the adjustments and factors, and using
the highest surveyed rate, the project area A should provide (2.88+0.12)x 1.26 x 1.1 = 4.16 spaces per
ksf, and (2.88+0.15)x 1.26 x 1.1 = 4.20 spaces per ksf for the entire shopping center. Once again, these
rates are lower than the proposed parking supply rates of 4.34 for area A and 4.68 spaces/ksf for the
entire shopping center.
Conclusion
Based on City of Cupertino parking code, areas B and C would provide adequate parking while the parking
capacity for area A is deficient by 77 spaces. Even though the standard parking code requires additional
stalls in area A, Hexagon believes that, based on the proposed land uses and project's parking supply,
there would be sufficient capacity to accommodate the anticipated parking demand. This conclusion is
based on the following:
1. Table 3 below provides a summary of the proposed number of parking spaces for area A and the
entire shopping center compared to the number of spaces based on the city code and estimates
from empirical data from the various alternative methodologies and sources discussed in this
report.

z Based on Building Size of 219,891 s.f.
The table shows that compared to estimates based on ITE rates, the local surveys and the ULI
parking requirements, the Crossroads Shopping Center provides more than adequate parking
capacity to accommodate future demand.
2. The peak parking demand for the restaurant and fast food uses of the project occur at different
times of the day. Based on data contained in the ITE Parking Generation Manual the fast food
peak demand occurs around noon when the parking demand for a (quality) restaurant is about
64% of its peak demand. Similarly, the peak demand for quality restaurants typically occurs
around 7:00 PM when the parking demand for fast food places is 63% of its peak. Based on the
City Code, the project should provide 144 stalls. Considering the different peaking characteristics
of fast food places and quality restaurants, the peak parking demand would be 117 spaces around
noon (71 x 100% for fast food places + 72 x 64% for quality restaurants) and 117 spaces around
7:00 PM (71 x 63% for fast food places + 72 x 100% for quality restaurants).
3. In the spirit of being conservative, the highest parking rate of the surveyed local shopping centers
was used (as opposed to using an average rate) in addition to the various factors that were added
to survey results to address seasonal considerations, percent of restaurants in the center and
circulation factors.
4. A 14-seat interior bar is proposed in Building F. According to the City code, this requires more
parking because the code for restaurant is one space per four seats versus one space per three
seats for a bar. However, the other sources of parking data, ITE and ULI, do not differentiate
between restaurant and bar. They base their parking estimate on the total square footage of the
establishment. Therefore, this addition is not anticipated to increase the parking demand because
the ITE and ULI methodologies used in this study take into account all types of restaurants,
including those with interior bar areas.
Recommended Transportation Demand Management(TDM) Measures
If the parking capacity would remain as proposed and documented significant parking issues at the
shopping center would occur in the future, the City could consider including specific TDM measures in the
Conditions of Approval to help reduce parking demand, including but not limited to:
• Transit Improvements
• Non-Motorized Improvements
• Shift Peak
• Guaranteed Ride Home
• Car Sharing
• Taxi Service
• Pricing
• Procure off-site parking for employees

It is also recommended that, if the shopping center requests additional new square footage or uses with
more intensive uses than those currently listed on Table 1A, 1 B, and 1 C, a new parking demand study
should be conducted.
Please let me know if you have any questions about this analysis.

According ko the City of Cupertino General Plan, transik trips represenk 'i.5 percent of the dai[y ganerated
tri�s in the c9ty. The transik demand from tha �ro�osed project was calculaked to be kwo (2)AM peak-hour
trips and fiva (5} PM peak-hour trips. According to 1'able 9, all routes operate below the standard seating
capacity. Due to the Eow project demand, the existing transit facilities wffE be able to accommodate the
increasa in transit#ri�s and the impacfs are expected to be less-than-significant.
PARKING FACI�ITIES
Parking impacts for the proposed redevelo�men#of the shop�ing centar are evaluated in this sectfon. ,
The City of Cupertino Municipal Code requires general commerciallretail uses #o pro�ide 1 parking s�aca
par 250 s.f.(4 spaces per 1,000 s.f.) of spaca. This land usa category is �ary genaral and can include a
variety of different ty�as of specific land uses. The current site plan pro�ides 793 parking spaces, a
supply rate of 3.89 spaces per ksf. To �eri�y that the proposed su�ply will be adequata to accommodata
the projacted demand of this �rojact a parking study was conductad that gathered local data from
de�elopments with a similar mix of uses.
Parking sun�eys of similar local commefcial de�elopments were �arformed on a weekday and weekend
day fo ob#ain additional parking demand information. In consultation with•Cify skaff, the following threa
commercial sites were chosen for parking sun�eys:
1. �xisting Homes#ead Project 5ite
2. Mariposa 5ho�ping Centar, 27fi0 Homes#ead Road, 5anta Clara
3. Grant Park Plaza, 1220 Grant Road, Mountain View
All three of tha above sites pro�ide a mix of commercia! uses that fncEude a supermarket, a general
merchandise store (CVS, Rite Aid, etc.), and restaurant space that is approximately ten (10) parcant or
less of the total size of the shopping centar. Tha sites were survayad bekween the hours of 'f 1:00 AM and
7:00 PM on a weekday, and between noon and 5:00 PM during a 5aturday in Febfuary 2010. Tab1e 10
presents the results of the parking surveys.
Tha �aricing demand ratas from tha threa surveyed sites ranga from 'f.83 to 3.98 parking spaces per ksf
of occupied space. The a�erage demand rate of the three surveyed sites is 3 spaces per ksf, It should be
noted that the highest rate was observed at tha Grank Paric Piaza site which includa5 a Nob Hill
su�ermarkat, as wall as a Ranch 99 market. Based on obseraations of this sife, a substantial proportion
of the parking demand appeared to be a�ributable to Ranch 99. The popularity of this ty�e of s#ore as
well as the fact that there were two supermarkats is likely tha cause of this relatively high �arking demand
rate af this site.
Tha projact sita generates a �eak weakday demand of 327 spacas or 2.13 s�aces per icsf with the current
uses. The ITE 85�" percentile demand rate is 3.35 spaces per ksf that is provided in the Parking
Generation 3'd Edition. A circulation factor is ty�ically applied to the demand rata to account for peak
parking timas when the demand is high so that spaces are easEfy accessible and vehicles to do not ha�e
fo circulate through the site to find an a�ailable space. Typical circulation fackors for shopping centefs
range from 5-15% depend�ng on the le�el of sen�ice that is desired to �rovida customers. Appfying these
factors would rasult in a �arking su�ply range of 3.52 — 3.85 spaces per ksf. This is consisten� wikh the
surveyed sites parking demands and wouid accommodate the demand of most of these sites during the
surveyed time periods.
The proposed supply rate of 3.89 spaces �er icst is greater than the average rata of tha threa sitas
surveyed for this project as wel] as tha 85� percantile ITE rate that is provided. Basad on the abo�e
surveys and the fact thak the ex�sting site is expected to remain similar with the same type of shopping
center land uses, the proposed su�ply of 793 spaces is expected to be ab]a to accommodata the

expected demand with implementation of the �roposed project. TF�erefore, the impack of this develo�men�
on parking is expected fo be [ess than significant. g
The City Code also requires the inckusion of designated bicycle parking for each of the uses on site. For
general commerciallretail land use, 5% of the vehicular parking requirement is required. The site plan
provides bike racks with no specific quantity. Fehr 8� Peers recommends tha# the projeck provide bike
racks that can accommodate approximately 40 bicycles.
