The requested amendment is to modify the parking requirement to 1.46 stalls per unit. The underlying East Streetcar Form-Based Code requires a basic minimum of 1.5 cars per unit, with provision for reduction based on amenities provided, per Table 8.1 (1). This project includes Bike Lockers/Storage resulting in a 0.05 per unit reduction in parking resulting in a base zoning minimum of 1.45 stalls per unit. In addition to the zoning requirement for the project, the Traffic Engineer, Fehr & Peers, has provided a Technical Memorandum dated August 4, 2016 providing supplementary information. The findings of Fehr & Peers analysis recommend 1.3 stalls per unit. The parking calculations are as follows: Zellerbach Parking Statistics Parking Calculations Stalls per unit No. of Units Stalls Parking Required Per Zone 1.45 293 425 Parking Required Per Fehr & Peers Analysis 1.3 293 381 Parking Provided 1.46 293 428 Parking Provided Parking Breakdown Structured Parking 368 Onsite Parking 42 Street Parking 18 Total 428 As outlined above the Provided Parking exceeds both the parking required by the zone as well as the parking required based on the Fehr & Peers analysis. The original Conditional Use Permit approval provided for a ratio of 1.6 stalls per unit; however, certain circumstances have resulted in the request for this modified number of stalls. The reason for the change in number has to do with the site constraints resulting in a loss of 22 stalls (as outlined by the accompanying PSOMAS Engineering Memo dated June 6, 2016) and structural provisions of the parking structure resulting in a loss of 18 stalls. Best regards, Doug Thimm, Principal Architectural Nexus CC. Frank Lilly Mike Florence Alexandra White Page 1 of 1 AN EMPLOYEE-OWNED COMPANY MEMO To: Curtis Woolsey From: Alan Regal, PE Date: June 6, 2016 Subject: Modifications to parking count from initial approval The onsite parking count for the Zellerbach project has been reduced from the initial planning approval by a total of 22 stalls due to site constraints not initially known at the time of approval. The initial site plan was designed such that the lane would contain 62 stalls, 300 East would have 10 stalls, and 400 East would have 10 stalls. The site plan in its current configuration contains 42 stalls on the lane, 9 stalls on 300 East, and 9 stalls on 400 East. As the Site Civil Engineer of record for the project, below is a list of the unavoidable conflicts and constraints that resulted in the loss of stalls: • Existing Power Poles to Remain -When the survey of the existing conditions was completed, it was discovered that existing power poles containing residential feeds of power and fiber optics lined the southern property line, the majority of which are not included in any recorded easements that would have not shown up on a title report during early planning exercises. After further investigation and discussions with Rocky Mountain Power, it was decided that the poles needed to remain and an additional 3’ clear space was required around the poles. In order to accommodate the poles, landscaped areas were added around the poles in their current configuration in place of parking stalls. • Additional Transformers – Initial calculations and assumptions made in site planning anticipated two transformers to be required, one at each end of the lane. However, Rocky Mountain Power is requiring 5 transformers and that they be installed internal to the site, centered on the south side of the private lane. These transformers (and required 10’ clear space) reduced the parking on the south side of the lane as additional landscaped areas were required to accommodate them. 4179 Riverboat Road Suite 200 Salt Lake City, UT 84123-2537 Tel 801.270.5777 Fax 801.270.5782 www.Psomas.com Curtis Woolsey Memo Page 2 of 2 June 6, 2016 8WAT020100 • Turning Radius and Proximity to Streetcar – Both 300 East and 400 East lost 1 stall from the initial site plan after the site survey was completed and the spacing between the Streetcar line and proposed lane access points were updated to match the existing constraints and required turning radius as directed by the Fire Marshall. I am confident in the parking configuration as it is shown in the attached. We have worked hard to configure the site such that every achievable stall has been captured while meeting the requirements of the governing code, initial site plan spacing and design, and requirements of the local fire department and Rocky Mountain Power. Barring any additional unforeseen challenges, I do not expect the parking configuration to change moving forward.

  • Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Ogden/Weber State University Transit Project
    U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Ogden/Weber State University Transit Project The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) served as the lead agency under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for Ogden/Weber State University Transit Project. The Utah Transit Authority (UTA) prepared the Environmental Assessment (EA) and supplemental information in compliance with NEPA, 42 U.S.C. § 4321 et. seq., and with FTA’s regulations, 23 CFR part 771. The EA discusses the potential impacts of the project so that FTA can determine whether significant adverse impacts (40 CFR 1508.27) are probable. If such a determination were made, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement would be required. The FTA has determined that the build alternative, as documented in the December 2018 EA, will have no significant adverse impact on the human environment. This Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) is based on the December 2018 EA, which has been independently evaluated by the FTA and determined to adequately and accurately discuss the project’s purpose, need, environmental issues, impacts, and mitigation commitments. The FTA takes full responsibility for the accuracy, scope, and content of the December 2018 EA. _____________________________ _____________________________02/22/2019 Cindy Terwilliger Date Regional Administrator Federal Transit Administration, Region 8 1 U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration Project: Ogden/Weber State University Transit Project Applicant: Utah Transit Authority Project Location: Ogden, Weber County, Utah Proposed Action The Utah Transit Authority (UTA) proposes to construct a 5.3-mile bus rapid transit (BRT) system in Ogden, Weber County, Utah.

  • Re-Evaluation of Streetcar Station Changes
    ENVIRONMENTAL RE-EVALUATION DOCUMENTATION PROJECT TITLE Sugar House Streetcar Project Environmental Assessment Re-Evaluation for Station Changes CURRENT, APPROVED ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTS: Title: Finding of No Significant Impact for the Sugar House Environmental Assessment Date: February 14, 2011 Type and Date of Last Federal Action: FONSI, February 2011 Title: Sugar House Streetcar Project Environmental Assessment Date: November 2010 IS THE PROJECT CURRENTLY UNDER DESIGN OR CONSTRUCTION? REASON FOR RE-EVALUATION The station platform locations are changing from the locations proposed in the Environmental Assessment (EA). The changes are shown in Attachment A, Sugar House Streetcar Project Proposed Station Plan Changes, dated 12/16/11. The reason for the platform changes is to accommodate the results of a community visioning process that included UTA, the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City (SLC RDA), Salt Lake City, South Salt Lake City, the Parley’s Rails Trails and Tunnels Coalition (PRATT), community members, developers, and a consultant team (CitiVenture Associates and Ronald A. Straka). The community visioning was conducted to support future land use plans and create a mixed-use corridor that integrates transit and various modes of pedestrian circulation with urban design and redevelopment to encourage transit ridership and economic development in the Sugar House Streetcar corridor. The results of the community visioning are shown in Attachment B, Sugar House Corridor Recommendations. In total, there will be one or more changes to seven stations. The changes include moving one station to avoid the acquisition of a building; utilizing a wider area of the UTA right-of-way (ROW) at one station; incorporating side platforms at five stations, rather than center platforms; and placing platforms closer to areas of redevelopment along the ROW at two stations.

  • A Plan for Urban Growth on Salt Lake City's West Side Based on Restored Rail Service to the Rio Grande Depot
    The Plan A PLAN FOR URBAN GROWTH ON SALT LAKE CITY’S WEST SIDE BASED ON RESTORED RAIL SERVICE TO THE RIO GRANDE DEPOT The Rio Grande Plan 1 What are the Problems? ▪ For the last 20 years, Salt Lake City’s main train station has been a temporary mobile structure that is only open during the night. The lack of passenger amenities is limiting ridership, turning away future rail and transit users, and stalling passenger rail projects in the state of Utah. ▪ Development around Salt Lake Central Station has not happened. Vacant lots have sat unused for over a decade. 300 South, which is blocked by the Rio Grande Depot, is a lifeless street. On the east side of the depot, 300 South and Pioneer Park are underutilized and overlooked. ▪ To the south and west of Salt Lake Central Station, mostly-abandoned railyards sprawl over 50 acres of otherwise prime land, creating an enormous ‘dead zone’ on the west side of downtown. ▪ Massive bridges span the rail yards at 400, 500, and 600 South. These disrupt the traffic flow on surface streets for vehicles and pedestrians alike, as well as consuming valuable street front. ▪ Major railroad crossings at 900, 800, and 200 South interrupt and often block travel between downtown and neighborhoods further west, as well as posing serious safety hazards. ▪ The design of Salt Lake Central Station is ‘flat’, meaning passengers must cross active railroad tracks to reach most platforms. This design creates significant safety hazards and limits the capacity of the station. Upgrades will required in the near future, and will cost millions of dollars.
