ITEM TITLE: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IMPERIAL BEACH,

CALIFORNIA, CONTINUING THE PROCLAMATION OF A STATE OF AN ONGOING LOCAL EMERGENCY RELATED TO COVID-19. (0210-25)
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT:

City Manager
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On March 12, 2020, the City’s Director of Emergency Services proclaimed the existence of a local emergency within the City, and on March 16, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2020-13 to ratify the proclamation of the City’s Director of Emergency Services. The law requires that the local emergency declaration be reviewed periodically. The Council has reviewed the need for and approved resolutions periodically since March 2020 to continue the ongoing state of emergency.

The local emergency related to COVID-19 continues to exist, and the attached resolution is before the Council to declare the continuation of the local state of emergency.

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve Resolution No. 2022-76.

OPTIONS:
 Approve resolution; or
 Provide direction to the City Manager.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

Since the City Council approved Resolution No. 2020-13 on March 16, 2020, the COVID-19 emergency has continued. The Health Officer of the County of San Diego issued the current Limited Order of the Health Officer and Emergency Regulations which delineates its current regulations.

The number of cases throughout the County, State, and country still increase on a daily basis, especially due to variants. COVID-19 therefore has and will continue to cause conditions of peril to the health, safety, and welfare of persons and property in the City.

Preparing for, responding to, mitigating, and recovering from the spread of COVID-19 requires the City to divert resources from normal day-to-day operations and alter normal day-to-day operations. The City needs the ability to take all necessary actions to comply with all County, State and Federal orders as applicable. City Staff believes that the response to COVID-19 has and will continue to impose extraordinary requirements on and expenses to the City which will be

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

An application
(USE-21-0054)
was originally
submitted to the
City on December
16, 2021 for
Regular Coastal
Permit (CP-21-
0004), Conditional
Use Permit (CUP21-0004), Design
Review Case
(DRC-21-0017),
Site Plan Review
(SPR-21-0018),
and a categorical
exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15332 Class 32 (In-fill Development Projects) proposing to demolish an existing building and construct a new Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility at 900 Palm Ave (APN 626-212-36- 00) in the C/MU-1 (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone. (USE-21-0054).

The project site is an existing 26,588 square foot (0.61-acre) lot situated on the northeast corner of Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The project would demolish the existing drive-through and 4,867 square foot commercial building (Union Bank) with four drive aisles and construct a new 1,918 square foot Raising Cane’s drive-through with two drive aisles. Vehicular ingress and egress to the property would be provided from two of the existing curb cuts, one located on 9th Street, which would be a full-movement driveway, and one located on Palm Avenue that is a right-in right-out only driveway. A second existing curb cut located along 9th Street, south of the curb cut that is proposed to be maintained, would be removed as a part of the project. For the project’s proposed internal circulation, the project proposes a two-way drive aisle located east and north of the commercial building and west of the parking spaces which are located adjacent to the eastern property line. The two drive aisles dedicated to the use of the drive-through are situated parallel to each other in a “C” shape that wraps around the western side of the restaurant and would locate adjacent to the western and southern property lines for the site. The drive-through drive aisles that front 9th Street (western property line) and Palm Avenue (southern property line) would be completely screened.

The proposed restaurant would provide customer ordering via walk-up and an outdoor patio area for seating. There would be no interior customer seating area aside from access to customer restrooms (one ADA public gender-neutral restroom). The proposed outdoor patio seating area is 776 square feet. The restaurant would serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the proposed hours of operation are 9:00 A.M. to 03:30 A.M. Monday to Sunday. The average number of employees per shift is estimated to be 10, although more employees could be brought on to handle special events or peak hours of business.

The properties situated to the north, south, east, and west of the project site are located in the C/MU-1 Zone and the land uses are commercial in character. In addition, other drive-through establishments exist nearby and the previous use on the site incorporated a drive-through.

Building Orientation & Design: The proposed project would consist of a 1,918 square foot singlestory Raising Cane’s restaurant with a two-drive aisle drive-through facility and a 776 square foot covered outdoor patio seating area. The proposed building is designed with a unique Imperial Beach prototype that provides a coastal design with artistic waves decorating portions of the screening of the drive aisles from the adjacent streets and is intended for drive-through and walkup service with outdoor dining. The architectural style features a rectangular shaped building with varying roof heights, various building materials, enhanced screening of the drive-aisles, art graphics depicting the character of the local community, coastal accent colors, and a mixture of wall finishes. The overall height of the building would be 20’, including the structure’s parapet and signage. Direct pedestrian access to the restaurant would be provided off Palm Avenue and an ADA path of travel originating from the eastern portion of the parking lot would provide access to the restaurant’s walk-up service. The restaurant’s drive through facility with two-drive aisles and parking lot would be accessible from both Palm Avenue as well as off 9th Street. The restaurant’s parking lot would be located on the eastern portion of the property east of the proposed restaurant and would provide 16 parking spaces, including two ADA stalls, three Vanpool/EV charging stations, and three mobile curbside pick-up spaces. Landscaping would be installed around the parking lot perimeter and within the parking area.

A 776 square foot outdoor patio is proposed that would be visible from Palm Avenue and would consist of outdoor dining facilities. The patio would include decorative colored concrete/enhanced paving and a 11’3½” tall, covered patio with decorative string lighting. The area would be shielded from traffic off both Palm Avenue and the drive aisles by a decorative wooden fence that measures 3’2” in height and wraps around the patio area and by landscaping consisting of shrubs and succulents. A new bicycle parking area inclusive of two bicycle storage areas, one for long-term bicycle parking (one long term covered, lockable enclosure with permanently anchored racks for one bicycle) and one for short-term bicycle parking (three new bicycle racks with two bike capacity each), is proposed adjacent to the outdoor seating area.

Building Materials: The building proposes a variety of building materials and wall finishes. The proposed building façade and screening element materials include the following: summit gray cement stucco, Boral brick/meridian brick with an Alamo blend, mountain fog Portland cement stucco, oyster shell cement stucco, and Belden Norman brick masonry. The metal accents would be powder coated steel with a matte black finish and an anodized black aluminum storefront system finish. Plank materials along the perimeter of the site would be composed of Trex, woodalternative composite planks made of recycled materials. Trex products are tested to withstand extreme weather conditions and hold their color over the life of the product, outlasting wood and minimizing frequent maintenance. The benches and railings would be weathered teak, mahogany, and English walnut.

Trash Enclosure: An enclosed proposed trash, recycling, and organics enclosure would be situated in the northeastern corner of the lot away from both street frontages (9th Street and Palm Avenue), surrounded by landscaping, and away from the outdoor seating. The enclosure would be constructed from 8” gray granite colored concrete masonry unit (CMU) block walls with a single course of charcoal colored designer block, a 7’1” tall access door on the southern elevation, two sets of metal frame swinging double doors on the western elevation, and a ribbed metal panel standing seem roof. Waste, recycling, and organics pick-up would occur from the waste and recycling area accessed off 9th Street.

With issuance of a Conditional Use Permit, the proposed design may be considered to meet the intent and purpose of the design standards outlined in IBMC Section 19.83.010 and contribute positively to the mixed-use corridor, which is comprised of a mix of commercial and residential uses. The applicant’s design provides varied building materials and architectural interest beyond what currently exists and would promote pedestrian activity with an active commercial use.

Building frontage and Floor to Ceiling Height: New buildings with frontage along Palm Avenue would be required to provide an active commercial use and a building depth of 25-feet per IBMC Section 19.26.020(A)(1). The applicant is proposing a large decorative canopy with a screening element that completely screens the drive-through drive aisles from the street views from both Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The screening element would be comprised of brick columns that measure 16’-7” tall and cement stucco archway pop outs that either have the business logo or Imperial Beach coastal wave art. The archways measure between 17’-9¼” to 20’-5” with the tallest archway framing the pedestrian walkway on Palm Avenue. The screening has an articulated base comprised of vertical wooden fencing with black metal supports that would be placed in between the archways and columns. The wooden fencing measures 5-feet in height, screening the street views from the vehicles in the drive aisles. The screening also has an articulated top with black metal mesh framed on the top and bottom by black metal supports. Two of the prominent archways located directly adjacent to the southern property line fronting Palm Avenue highlight and enhance the five-foot wide ADA accessible pedestrian walkway comprised of stamped concrete which leads directly from the sidewalk fronting Palm Avenue to the business entrance as well as open patio seating. The enhanced pedestrian walkway provides direct pedestrian access from the Palm Avenue sidewalk to the business. The building depth would be 77-feet. The proposed drive-through establishment requires a Conditional Use Permit, which is a discretionary act that may authorize a particular use at a particular location subject to specific conditions. Due to the unique characteristics of the use, the City Council may determine whether the proposed design meets the intent of the active commercial use requirement.

Per IBMC Section 19.26.070, all commercial spaces on the ground floor are required to have a floor-to-ceiling height of 15-feet. The applicant has stated that they are proposing a reduced interior floor-to-ceiling height of 11-feet to maintain health and life safety standards, improve the energy efficiency of the building, and to adhere to proportional design standards. As the proposed Raising Cane’s drive-through/walk-up is a unique business model that would provide no interior customer access or seating area aside from access to customer restrooms (one ADA public gender-neutral restroom), and instead, would provide customer ordering via walk-up and an outdoor patio area for seating, the interior of the building would only function as an interior kitchen where food would be prepared. As such, environmental health and life safety adherence for the interior of the building was considered. The applicant informed staff that the proposed 11-foot-tall ceiling height would be more readily cleanable and within reach of its crew members who would be tasked with maintaining cleanliness. Additionally, with regard to maximizing the energy

Page 148 of 574 ends

P a g e | 9
efficiency of the structure, the energy consumption necessary to provide conditioned air in a volume to accommodate a building with a 15-foot floor to ceiling height for a functional kitchen is less energy efficient. Furthermore, given the small size of the proposed Raising Cane’s structure, a 15-foot floor to ceiling height would require the design to be disproportionately tall and would, by Brand standards, be out of the realm of good proportional design.

Additionally, the applicant has proposed a lower canopy floor to ceiling height of 10-feet as the applicant states that a 15-foot floor-to-canopy height would negatively impact the customer experience as it would minimize the total shaded square footage provided beneath the canopy, and thus, maximizing the sun exposure for customers dining outdoors. By providing a lower canopy height more shading would be provided to the customers, enhancing their dining experience. The canopy proposed by Raising Cane’s would be intended to maximize its usable outdoor square footage, providing increased ‘activated’ space on site. As such, the proposed restaurant would provide an 11-foot interior floor to ceiling height, a 10-foot floor-to-ceiling height for the outdoor patio. Due to the unique characteristics of the use, the City Council may determine whether the proposed design meets the intent of the floor-to-ceiling height requirement.

Parking: Per IBMC Section 19.48.050(E)(1), drive-through establishments are required to provide one parking space for every 50 square feet of net floor area plus one space per two employees at the largest work shift. Per IBMC Section 19.04.575, net floor area is defined as, “…the total horizontal area of all the floors of a building included within the interior walls, exclusive of areas used exclusively for permanently installed heating and air conditioning units, mechanical equipment rooms, elevator shafts, basements or attics less than seven feet in height, permanent parking spaces, driveways, ramps, common kitchens, bathrooms, and hallways included within a building and areas used exclusively by employees in commercial and manufacturing businesses within a building.” Technically, as the proposed Raising Cane’s building interior would be exclusively utilized by employees with the only customer accessible space being a bathroom, there is no proposed net floor area for this project. However, staff requested that the applicant provide parking calculations for the outdoor patio seating area to meet the intent of the requirement which is to provide customers and employees with sufficient off-street parking. The proposed outdoor patio is 776 square feet (1 stall/50 square feet) = 16 off-street parking spaces and the largest shift would have 10 employees (1 stall/2 employees) = 5 off-street parking spaces for a total of 21 off-street parking spaces for the project. The applicant has proposed to provide a total of 16 off-street parking spaces, including 11 standard, two ADA stalls, three designated mobile curbside pickup, and three designated carpool/vanpool/EV charging stations in conjunction with implementing transportation demand management (TDM) strategies to off-set the employee and customer parking needs.

The applicant assessed the potential TDM strategies for the project site and developed a TDM Plan to off-set the employee and customer parking needs, reduce vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions, while increasing the utilization of active transportation. The TDM plan recommendations were to implement the following strategies:
 Providing secure bicycle storage racks for at least (2) bicycles. A long-term bicycle parking rack should also be provided for (1) bicycle. These storage racks should be provided at the Raising Cane’s.
 Clean air / Vanpool / EV parking spaces to be provided per the 2019 CALGreen standards but also to encourage carpooling for employees.

Page 149 of 574 ends

P a g e | 10
 Disseminate information on the two SDMTS bus routes within a short walking distance of the Raising Cane’s. Bus Routes 933/934 and 901 provide convenient access to the property along 9th Street and Palm Avenue.
 Raising Cane’s to offer Commuter Benefits which allow Crew members (employees) to defer pre-tax funds towards their own purchasing of transit funds.

The applicant is proposing to include a new bicycle parking area inclusive of two secure bicycle storage areas, one for long-term bicycle parking (one long term covered, lockable enclosure with permanently anchored racks for one bicycle) and one for short-term bicycle parking (three new bicycle racks with two bike capacity each); three designated mobile curbside pickup and three designated carpool/vanpool/EV charging stations; would disseminate information on the two San Diego Metropolitan Transit System bus routes 933/934 and 901; and provide commuter benefits to their employees. The proposed 16 parking spaces proposed for the project in conjunction with the implementation of the TDM strategies may meet the purpose of the off-street parking requirements which is to provide space off public streets for automobiles and other vehicles, to prevent traffic congestion, to encourage safe vehicular travel, and to provide for the welfare and convenience of residents and shoppers.

In accordance with the City’s commercial landscaping requirements, the parking lot would include landscaping such as trees, shrubs, and grasses. Additionally, as a part of the project, one existing curb cut off 9th Street would be removed.

Queuing: The opening to the drive-through lane would locate at the northeastern corner of the proposed building, and the drive-through lane would wrap around the north and west sides of the building in a counter-clockwise direction. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes and two order boards, which would allow Raising Cane’s to take orders from two customers at the same time. After the order boards, the two lanes would merge into a single drive-through lane prior to the pay and pick-up window. Overall, the project site would provide a total queuing capacity of 300 feet, for a drive-through queuing capacity of 15 vehicles. Additionally, the site would have an additional on-site queuing capacity of 145 feet in the drive aisle adjacent to Palm Avenue, and 120 feet in the drive aisle adjacent to Ninth Street, resulting in an additional on-site queuing capacity of 13 vehicles.

The applicant completed a drive-through (DT) queuing analysis for the proposed project to evaluate the adequacy of the drive-through lane queuing capacity. The applicant analyzed the proposed restaurant with two existing Raising Cane’s establishments located within San Diego County. Based on the report’s findings, which was considered by the City’s traffic engineer, it was determined that the proposed project site would have an on-site queuing capacity of 28 vehicles, which would be able to accommodate the expected peak demand.

Lighting: Exterior lighting has been incorporated on the screening elements and building to enhance the architecture of the building and landscaped areas of the site. Additionally, four pole lights are placed throughout the site facing the interior of the lot to ensure that the lighting would enhance safety and circulation as well as not impact the surrounding neighbors and uses. Per the photometric plan for the project, the project lighting would be restrained in color and brightness.

All of the lighting and lighting fixtures are architecturally compatible and scaled to the buildings with consideration for energy efficiency.

Landscaping: Typically, new commercial development requires that 15% of the total site be landscaped. The project proposes to install a total of 4,154 square feet of planted landscaping consisting of a mix of trees, shrubs, perennials, succulents, and ground cover of copper canyon

Page 150 of 574 ends

P a g e | 11
crushed stone 1”-4” in diameter and Apache gold-colored boulders ranging in 28” – 50” in diameter. In total, the project would install 13 new trees.

Design Review Board:

The Design Review Board reviewed the project on June 16, 2022, and recommended approval of the project’s design with a vote of 4-0 (1 member absent) (Reference Attachment 3) with the following recommendations:
 Install all of the proposed EV Charging stations in the proposed EV charging parking areas  Look in to installing commercial solar panels
 Consider replacing the wood materials along the perimeter with something more durable  Place the materials key on the elevations for more clarity  Consider replacing the color of the brick veneer with a lighter tone/stone color, or use the cobble veneer or integrated seashells
 Incorporate vertical shrubs or vines on the columns facing 9 th Street (street frontages)
instead of succulents
 Replace the coast live oaks with faster growing trees that incorporate a shade canopy  Consider the area south of the trash enclosure for additional landscaping  Replace the concrete with pavers or stamped concrete in the dining area Most of the recommendations have been addressed and incorporated into the project/plans and/or have been provided as conditions of approval within Resolution 2022-73. Regarding the comment, “Incorporate vertical shrubs or vines on the columns facing 9th Street (street frontages) instead of succulents”, the applicant assessed the feasibility of incorporating vertical shrubs or

Page 152 of 574 ends

P a g e | 13
vines, but found that it would not be feasible to incorporate the green vertical elements on the columns. The applicant stated that vertical shrubs and vines on walls require excessive watering to maintain the appearance, as well as promote habitation by unwanted rodents and pests, which would present a health and safety conflict. As an alternative to vertical shrubs or vines, Raising Cane’s proposes to incorporate a combination of hand-painted beach-wave murals on the towers, along with Coral Aloe (2-3 ft. mature height) and Red Yucca (3-4 ft. mature height), to soften the appearance of the screening elements along the street frontage.

Additionally, regarding the comment, “Consider the area south of the trash enclosure for additional landscaping”, the applicant assessed the feasibility of incorporating additional landscaping south of the trash enclosure and found that it would not be feasible. The applicant stated that in consideration of the distance of the trash enclosure from Palm Avenue and the series of (three) planters between the right of way and the trash enclosure, visibility of the trash enclosure from Palm Avenue would be minimal and that the pedestrian door to the rear of the enclosure would be an integral part of Raising Cane’s operations. As such, the space adjacent to the door would not be a viable area to incorporate additional landscaping.

General Plan/ Zoning Consistency: The proposed development is subject to C/MU-1 (General Commercial & Mixed-Use) zoning requirements. The purpose of the C/MU-1 zone is to provide areas for businesses to meet the demand for commercial goods and services required primarily by the local population. It is intended that the dominant type of commercial activity in the C/MU-1 Zone will be community and neighborhood serving retail and office uses. Mixed-use development and multiple family residences are also permitted in the C/MU-1 Zone. The proposed project would provide restaurant services, meeting the intent of the land use designation.

Zoning:

Standards Provided/Proposed
Yard requirements for the C/MU-1 zone are as
follows:

A. Front Yard. Zero feet; up to forty percent
of the project frontage may be set back up
to an additional five feet. Front yards
facing Donax Avenue or Calla Avenue
shall be a minimum of fifteen feet.

B. Side Yard. There shall be a minimum side
yard of five feet.

A. The project fronts Palm
Avenue. The front yard
measured from the building
measures 30’ to 38’, allowing
for the covered patio seating,
decorative canopy, drivethrough aisles and a landscape buffer between the building and
right-of-way. The screening
element locates directly
adjacent to Palm Avenue.

B. The side yards of the project
are adjacent to 9th Street and
an alley. The side yard for the
portion of the building off the
alley adjacent to the eastern
property line measures 52’
from the patio and 80’ from the
building and the side yard for
the portion of the patio off of 9th
Street measures 29’6”.

Page 153 of 574 ends

P a g e | 14
C. Rear Yard. There shall be a minimum rear
yard of ten feet.

The open space and landscaping requirements as
stated in Chapter 19.50 of this code shall be met.

C. The rear yard abuts the parking
area and the commercial
building of the adjacent
property and measures
approximately 72’5” feet from
the property line to the
proposed building.
15% of the site must be landscaped,
and 15% of the site provides planted
landscaping.
“Active Commercial Uses” as defined in Chapter

19.05 are required for all buildings with frontage
along Palm Avenue at a minimum of 60% of each
building’s ground floor lineal footage, have direct
pedestrian access from the Palm Avenue sidewalk or
a plaza, and have a minimum building depth of
twenty-five feet. The remaining forty percent must
either be primarily related to the commercial use,
such as parking, access, or other non-active
commercial purpose or, if related to non-commercial
use, must be designed either to encourage and
promote pedestrian activity or to visually screen
required on-site parking (Section 19.26.020.A.1).

The Raising Cane’s proposed building
would locate along Palm Avenue and
is proposing a large decorative canopy
with a screening element that
completely screens the drive-through
drive aisles from the street views from
both Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The
proposed screening element is
comprised of brick columns and
cement stucco archway pop outs that
either have the business logo or
Imperial Beach coastal wave art. The
screening has an articulated base
comprised of vertical wooden fencing
with black metal supports that would
be placed in between the archways
and columns. The screening also has
an articulated top with black metal
mesh framed on the top and bottom by
black metal supports. Two of the
prominent archways located directly
adjacent to the southern property line
fronting Palm Avenue highlight and
enhance the five-foot wide ADA
accessible pedestrian walkway
comprised of stamped concrete which
leads directly from the sidewalk
fronting Palm Avenue to the business
entrance as well as open patio seating.

The enhanced pedestrian walkway
provides direct pedestrian access from
the Palm Avenue sidewalk to the
business. The proposed building depth
is 77-feet.

The proposed drive-through
establishment requires a Conditional
Use Permit, which is a discretionary
act that may authorize a particular use

Page 154 of 574 ends

P a g e | 15
at a particular location subject to
specific conditions. Due to the unique
characteristics of the use, the City
Council may determine whether the
proposed design meets the intent of
the active commercial use
requirement.

For property with a side or rear yard abutting a
residential zone, the second floor shall be set back a
minimum of five feet from the abutting residential
property line and the third floor shall be set back a
minimum of ten feet from the abutting residential
property line. (Section 19.26.041)
The property does not abut a
residential zone.

Minimum lot size of 3,000 square-feet (Section

19.26.050).

The lot size is 26,588 square feet.

Minimum street frontage of 30 feet (Section

19.26.060).

The Palm Avenue frontage is
approximately 130.11 feet, and the 9th
Street frontage is 180.10 feet.

Maximum building height of four stories or 40 feet
(Section 19.26.070).

The project proposes a building height
of 20-feet.

The applicant would be required to
show conformance with the height
requirement as required by IBMC

19.04.400.

All commercial spaces on the ground floor shall have
a minimum fifteen-foot floor-to-ceiling height; and
single-story commercial buildings shall have a
minimum building height of twenty feet. (Section

19.27.070).

Per IBMC Section 19.26.070, all
commercial spaces on the ground floor
are required to have a floor-to-ceiling
height of 15-feet. The applicant has
stated that they are proposing a
reduced interior floor-to-ceiling height
of 11-feet to maintain health and life
safety standards, improve the energy
efficiency of the building, and to adhere
to proportional design standards. As
the Raising Cane’s drive-through/walkup would be a unique business model that would not provide interior
customer access or seating area aside
from access to customer restrooms
(one ADA public gender-neutral
restroom), and instead, would provide
customer ordering via walk-up and an
outdoor patio area for seating, the
interior of the building would only
function as an interior kitchen where

Page 155 of 574 ends

P a g e | 16
food would be prepared. As such,
environmental health and life safety
adherence was considered. The
applicant informed staff that the
proposed 11-foot-tall ceiling height
would be more readily cleanable and
within reach of its crew members who
would be tasked with maintaining
cleanliness. Additionally, with regard to
maximizing the energy efficiency of the
structure, the energy consumption
necessary to provide conditioned air in
a volume to accommodate a building
with a 15-foot floor to ceiling height for
a functional kitchen would be less
energy efficient. Furthermore, given
the small size of the proposed Raising
Cane’s structure, a 15-foot floor to
ceiling height would require the design
to be disproportionately tall and would,
by Brand standards, be out of the
realm of good proportional design.

Additionally, the applicant has
proposed a lower canopy floor to
ceiling height of 10-feet as the
applicant states that a 15-foot floor-tocanopy height would negatively impact the customer experience as it would
minimize the total shaded square
footage provided beneath the canopy,
and thus, maximizing the sun exposure
for customers dining outdoors. By
providing a lower canopy height more
shading would be provided to the
customers, enhancing their dining
experience. The canopy proposed by
Raising Cane’s would be intended to
maximize its usable outdoor square
footage, providing increased
‘activated’ space on site. As such, the
proposed restaurant would provide an
11-foot interior floor to ceiling height, a
10-foot floor-to-ceiling height for the
outdoor patio. Due to the unique
characteristics of the use, the City
Council may determine whether the
proposed design meets the intent of
the floor-to-ceiling height requirement.

The building height would be 20 feet.

Page 156 of 574 ends

P a g e | 17
No buildings shall be located less than five feet from
any other building on the same lot. (Section

19.26.080)
No other buildings are proposed on the
same lot.

Landscaping requirements are as follows (Section

19.50.030, Commercial Landscaping):

A. Not less than fifteen percent of the total site
shall be landscaped and permanently maintained.

B. There shall be a five-foot-wide landscape
area between any parking area and any public street
right-of-way.

C. A portion of a property not used for buildings,
parking, walkways, loading or storage areas shall be
landscaped.

D. There shall be a minimum three-foot by
fifteen-foot, or forty-five square foot, landscaped area within the parking area (not including perimeter area
landscaping) for every three parking spaces or the
equivalent. A minimum width of three feet is required.

A four-foot by fifteen-foot area may be permitted for
every four spaces, five-foot-wide for five spaces, etc.

E. Prior to issuance of any building permits, a
complete landscaping plan shall be submitted to the
Community Development Department for approval.

Such approval shall be subject to appeal in the
manner set forth in Sections 19.84.070 through

19.84.090.

F. Landscaping and required watering system
shall be installed prior to the use of the premises. All landscaping material in required landscaping areas
shall be permanently maintained in a growing and
healthy condition, including trimming, as appropriate
to the landscaping material.

A permanent irrigation system shall be installed to
serve all landscaped areas.

A. The project proposes to install
a total of 4,154 square feet of
planted landscaping consisting
of a mix of trees, shrubs,
perennials, succulents, and
ground cover of copper canyon
crushed stone 1”-4” in diameter
and Apache gold-colored
boulders ranging in 28” – 50” in
diameter. In total, the project
would install 13 new trees.

B. The project provides a 14.6’
landscape area between the
parking lot and Palm Avenue.

C. Portions of a property not used
for buildings, parking,
walkways, loading, or storage
are landscaped.

D. The project provides adequate
landscaping in the surface
parking spaces.

E. A complete landscape plan
would be required prior to
issuance of building permits.

F. Landscaping and required
watering system shall be
installed prior to the use of the
premises subject to state
requirements.

Page 157 of 574 ends

P a g e | 18
A permanent irrigation system shall be
installed to serve all landscaped areas
subject to state requirements.

Required parking spaces for drive-through
establishments in the C/MU-1 Zone: one space for
each fifty square feet of net floor area, plus one space per two employees at largest work shift (IBMC

19.48.050.E).

Per IBMC Section 19.48.050(E)(1),
drive-through establishments are
required to provide one parking space
for every 50 square feet of net floor
area plus one space per two
employees at the largest work shift.

Per IBMC Section 19.04.575, Net floor
area is defined as, “…the total
horizontal area of all the floors of a
building included within the interior
walls, exclusive of areas used
exclusively for permanently installed
heating and air conditioning units,
mechanical equipment rooms, elevator
shafts, basements or attics less than
seven feet in height, permanent
parking spaces, driveways, ramps,
common kitchens, bathrooms, and
hallways included within a building and
areas used exclusively by employees
in commercial and manufacturing
businesses within a building.”
Technically, as the proposed Raising
Cane’s building interior would be
exclusively utilized by employees with
the only customer accessible space
being a bathroom, there is no
proposed net floor area for this project.

However, staff requested that the
applicant provide parking calculations
for the outdoor patio seating area to
meet the intent of the requirement
which is to provide customers with
sufficient off-street parking. The
outdoor patio is 776 square feet (1
stall/50 square feet) = 16 off street
parking spaces and the largest shift
would have 10 employees (1 stall/2
employees) = 5 off street parking
spaces for a total of 21 off-street
parking spaces for the project. The
applicant has proposed to provide a
total of 16 parking spaces, including 11
standard, two ADA stalls, three
designated mobile curbside pickup,
and three designated carpool/vanpool/

Page 158 of 574 ends

P a g e | 19
EV charging stations in conjunction
with implementing transportation
demand management (TDM)
strategies to off-set the employee and
customer parking needs. The TDM
strategies proposed include: a new
bicycle parking area inclusive of two
secure bicycle storage areas, one for
long-term bicycle parking (one long
term covered, lockable enclosure with
permanently anchored racks for one
bicycle) and one for short-term bicycle
parking (three new bicycle racks with
two bike capacity each); three
designated mobile curbside pick-up
and three designated carpool/vanpool/
EV charging stations; would
disseminate information on the two
San Diego Metropolitan Transit
System bus routes 933/934 and 901;
and would offer commuter benefits to
employees. The proposed 16 parking
spaces proposed for the project in
conjunction with the implementation of
the TDM strategies would meet the
purpose of the off-street parking
requirements which is to provide space
off public streets for automobiles and
other vehicles, to prevent traffic
congestion, to encourage safe
vehicular travel, and to provide for the
welfare and convenience of residents
and shoppers.

WHEREAS, on June 16, 2022, the Design Review Board recommended approval of the project with a vote of 4-0 (1 member absent); and
WHEREAS, the project is demolishing an existing building and constructing a new Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility and outdoor patio seating area is compatible in use with other developments in the vicinity which consist of commercial buildings and retail and is consistent with Policy D-8 (Project Design) of the Design Element of the General Plan; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the project is in substantial compliance with Policy L-4c of the Land Use Element of the General Plan, which promotes commercial uses that provide goods and services to residents and visitors that will increase the City’s tax base in the C/MU-1 Zone (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the project is consistent with the C/MU-1 (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone of the Zoning Ordinance, to provide areas for businesses to meet the local demand for commercial goods and services; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the project complies with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality (CEQA) as the project is categorically exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15332 (In-Fill Development Projects); and WHEREAS, the City Council further offers the following findings in support of its decision to conditionally approve the project:

REGULAR COASTAL PERMIT (IBMC § 19.87.050):

1. The proposed development conforms to the certified local coastal plan including coastal land use policies.

The General Plan/Local Coastal Plan designates the site as General Commercial and

Page 161 of 574 ends

Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 2 of 17 ends

Mixed Use (C/MU-1) Zone, providing for offices performing services for residents of the City, service establishments consistent with the purposes of General Commercial and Mixed Use Zone, and restaurants with a drive-through subject to a Conditional Use Permit. The project would demolish an existing commercial building (Union Bank) with a drive-through and construct a new Raising Cane’s restaurant (commercial building) with a drive-through and outdoor patio seating, which is consistent with the Local Coastal Plan with approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The project site is located in a nonappealable coastal zone and complies with the land use designation of the General Plan/Local Coastal Plan. The project does not propose to obstruct access the beach or obstruct coastal views.

2. For all development seaward of the nearest public highway to the shoreline, the proposed development meets standards for public access and recreation of Chapter Three of the 1976 Coastal Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The project site is not located between the seaward of the first public road or nearest public highway to the shoreline. The General Plan/Local Coastal Program designates the site as General Commercial & Mixed-Use (C/MU-1 Zone). The purpose of the C/MU-1 zone is to provide areas for mixed-use development, multiple-family dwellings, and for businesses to meet the local demand for commercial goods and services. It is intended that the dominant type of commercial activity in the C/MU-1 zone will be community and neighborhood serving retail and office uses (IBMC Section 19.26.010).

The proposed Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through meets the purpose and intent of the land use designation because drive-through establishments are permitted in the C/MU-1 Zone with a conditional use permit and the business meets the local demand for commercial goods and services. As such, the proposed development meets standards for public access and recreation of Chapter Three of the 1976 Coastal Act and regulations promulgated thereunder.

3. The proposed development meets the minimum criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning Ordinance, the City’s Minimum Landscape Planting and Irrigation Standards, and the City’s Design Guidelines, as applicable.

The project complies with the City’s Design Guidelines, landscaping requirements, parking requirements, and building height limitations specified in the Zoning Ordinance.

The project meets the side yard and rear yard setback requirements. The project fronts Palm Avenue and new buildings with frontage along Palm Avenue would be required to provide an active commercial use and a building depth of 25-feet per IBMC Section

19.26.020(A)(1). The project provides a large decorative canopy with a screening element that completely screens the drive-through drive aisles from the street views from both Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The screening element is comprised of brick columns that measure 16’7” tall and cement stucco archway pop outs that either have the business logo or Imperial Beach coastal wave art. The archways measure between 17’9¼” to 20’5” with the tallest archway framing the pedestrian walkway on Palm Avenue. Two of the prominent archways located directly adjacent to the southern property line fronting Palm Avenue highlight and enhance the five-foot wide ADA accessible pedestrian walkway comprised of stamped concrete which leads directly from the sidewalk fronting Palm Avenue to the business entrance as well as open patio seating. The enhanced pedestrian walkway provides direct pedestrian access from the Palm Avenue sidewalk to the business.

Per IBMC Section 19.26.070, all commercial spaces on the ground floor are required to have a floor-to-ceiling height of 15-feet. The applicant has stated that they are proposing

Page 162 of 574 ends

Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 3 of 17 ends

a reduced interior floor-to-ceiling height of 11-feet to maintain health and life safety standards, improve the energy efficiency of the building, and to adhere to proportional design standards. As the Raising Cane’s drive-through/walk-up is a unique business model that provides no interior customer access or seating area aside from access to customer restrooms (one ADA public gender-neutral restroom), and instead, provides customer ordering via walk-up and an outdoor patio area for seating, the interior of the building is only functioning as an interior kitchen where food is prepared, and as such, environmental health and life safety adherence is imperative. The applicant stated that the proposed 11-foot-tall ceiling is the height which is easily cleanable and within reach of its crew members who will be tasked with maintaining cleanliness. Additionally, with regards to maximizing the energy efficiency of the structure, the energy consumption necessary to provide conditioned air in a volume to accommodate a building with a 15- foot floor to ceiling height for a functional kitchen is inefficient. Furthermore, given the small size of the proposed Raising Cane’s structure, a 15-foot floor to ceiling height would require the design to be disproportionately tall and would, by Brand standards, be out of the realm of good proportional design.

Additionally, the applicant has proposed a lower canopy floor to ceiling height of 10-feet as the applicant states that a 15-foot floor-to-canopy height would negatively impact the customer experience as it would minimize the total shaded square footage provided beneath the canopy, and thus, maximizing the sun exposure for customers dining outdoors. By providing a lower canopy height more shading would be provided to the customers, enhancing their dining experience. The canopy proposed by Raising Cane’s is maximizing its usable outdoor square footage, providing increased ‘activated’ space on site. As such, the proposed restaurant provides an 11-foot interior floor to ceiling height, a 10-foot floor-to-ceiling height for the outdoor patio, and a 77-foot building depth.

4. The proposed development meets minimum criteria set forth in Sections

19.81.060, 19.82.050., 19.83.120., 19.84.050., and 19.86.100., of this title for site plans, conditional use permits, design review, variances, zoning classification and rezonings.

The proposed development meets the minimum criteria set forth in Sections 19.81.060,

19.82.050, and 19.83.110 (Section 19.83.120 is no longer applicable) for a site plan review, conditional use permit, and design review subject to the findings provided within this Resolution. Sections 19.84.050 and 19.86.100 are not applicable because the project does not require a variance or zoning classification/rezoning.

5. For all development involving the construction of a shoreline protective device, a mitigation fee shall be collected which shall be used for each sand replenishment purposes. The mitigation fee shall be deposited in an interest-bearing account designated by the Executive Director of the California Coastal Commission and the city manager of Imperial Beach in lieu of providing sand to replace the sand a beach area that would be lost due to the impacts of any proposed protective structure.

The subject site is not located near an area that would require shoreline protection. As such, the proposed project does not necessitate the construction of a shoreline protection device and would not have an impact on the sand in any beach area.

Therefore, a mitigation fee is not required for the project.

6. This project complies with the California Environmental Quality Act.

This project is categorically exempted from the requirements of the California

Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 5 of 17 ends

the purpose and intent of the zoning code, General Plan, and Local Coastal Program because the C/MU-1 (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone provides for restaurant establishments consistent with the purposes of General Commercial Zone and drivethrough establishments subject to a Conditional Use Permit. In addition, the project would be considered a substantial improvement to the area that would serve to increase the City’s tax base, which serves Land Use Element Policy L-4c of the adopted General Plan and Local Coastal Program.

DESIGN REVIEW/SITE PLAN REVIEW (IBMC § 19.81.060):

12. The proposed use does not have any detrimental effect upon the general health, safety and convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or is not detrimental or injurious to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood.

The proposed Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility and outdoor patio seating area in the C/MU-1 (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone will not be detrimental to the health, safety or convenience of persons residing or working in the neighborhood, or detrimental or injurious to the property and improvements in the neighborhood because it is consistent with the development standards and zoning designation of the site as well as provides improvements to the project site and public right-of-way. Specific conditions have been set forth by the Community Development Department, Public Works Department, Building Department, and Public Safety Department to mitigate public safety and welfare concerns such a development project may raise in the Conditions of Approval.

13. The proposed use does not adversely affect the General Plan or the Local Coastal Plan.

In addition, the project would be considered a substantial improvement to the area that would increase the City’s tax base, which serves Land Use Element Policy L-4c of the adopted General Plan and Local Coastal Program.

14. The proposed use is compatible with other existing and proposed uses in the neighborhood.

The proposed Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility and outdoor patio seating area is compatible in use with established uses in the neighborhood which consist of a mix of commercial businesses, retail shops, some of which have drivethrough services. The subject site is in the C/MU-1 (General Commercial and Mixed Use) Zone, which provides uses similar in character and scale.

15. The location, site layout and design of the proposed use orients the proposed structures to streets, driveways, sunlight, wind and other adjacent structures and uses in a harmonious manner.

The proposed new Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility and outdoor patio seating area would be replacing an existing commercial building. The surrounding uses consist of a mix of other commercial businesses, retail shops, gas stations, and a drive-through restaurant. The primary building elevation would face Palm Avenue, which is consistent with the surrounding commercial and mixed-use uses along the Palm

Page 165 of 574 ends

Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 6 of 17 ends

Avenue Corridor. The applicant is proposing a large decorative canopy with a screening element that completely screens the drive-through drive aisles from the street views from both Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The screening element is comprised of brick columns that measure 16’7” tall and cement stucco archway pop outs that either have the business logo or Imperial Beach coastal wave art. The archways measure between 17’9¼” to 20’5” with the tallest archway framing the pedestrian walkway on Palm Avenue. Two of the prominent archways located directly adjacent to the southern property line fronting Palm Avenue highlight and enhance the five-foot wide ADA accessible pedestrian walkway comprised of stamped concrete which leads directly from the sidewalk fronting Palm Avenue to the business entrance as well as open patio seating. The enhanced pedestrian walkway provides direct pedestrian access from the Palm Avenue sidewalk to the business. Additionally, landscaping would be provided adjacent to the screening elements. The design of the proposed use orients the proposed structures to streets, driveways, sunlight, wind and other adjacent structures and uses in a harmonious manner promoting pedestrian access to the business from Palm Avenue.

16. The combination and relationship of one proposed use to another on the site is properly integrated.

The Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through facility and outdoor patio seating area is properly integrated so that the entrance to the Raising Cane’s is provided off of Palm Avenue. The applicant is proposing a large decorative canopy with a screening element that completely screens the drive-through drive aisles from the street views from both Palm Avenue and 9th Street. The screening element is comprised of brick columns that measure 16’7” tall and cement stucco archway pop outs that either have the business logo or Imperial Beach coastal wave art. The archways measure between 17’9¼” to 20’5” with the tallest archway framing the pedestrian walkway on Palm Avenue. Two of the prominent archways located directly adjacent to the southern property line fronting Palm Avenue highlight and enhance the five-foot wide ADA accessible pedestrian walkway comprised of stamped concrete which leads directly from the sidewalk fronting Palm Avenue to the business entrance as well as open patio seating. The enhanced pedestrian walkway provides direct pedestrian access from the Palm Avenue sidewalk to the business. Additionally, landscaping would be provided adjacent to the screening elements and throughout the site. The opening to the drivethrough lane would be located at the northeastern corner of the proposed building, and the drive-through lane would wrap around the north and east sides of the building in a counter-clockwise direction. The proposed site improvements, right of way improvements, and building design style and materials properly integrate the building with surrounding uses.

17. Access to and parking for the proposed use does not create any undue traffic problem.

The parking design will not create any undue traffic problems as the required amount of parking is provided and the drive-through queue can accommodate 28 vehicles which, based on the applicant’s queuing analysis, would be maintained on site with no overflow on the street. Vehicular ingress and egress occurs through a public alley entrance west of the property as well as a curb cut on Georgia Street. Vehicular ingress and egress to the property would be provided from two of the existing curb cuts, one located on 9th Street which is a full-movement driveway, and one located on Palm Avenue that is a right-in right-out only driveway. The second existing curb cut located along 9th Street, south of the curb cut that is proposed to be maintained, would be removed as a part of

Page 166 of 574 ends

Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 7 of 17 ends

the project. For the project’s proposed internal circulation, the project proposes a twoway drive aisle located east and north of the commercial building and west of the parking spaces which are located adjacent to the eastern property line. The two drive aisles dedicated to the use of the drive-through are situated parallel to each other in a “C” shape that wraps around the western side of the restaurant and is located adjacent to the western and southern property lines for the site. The drive-through drive aisles that front 9th Street (western PL) and Palm Avenue (southern PL) are completely screened.

Per IBMC Section 19.48.050(E)(1), drive-through establishments are required to provide one parking space for every 50 square feet of net floor area plus one space per two employees at the largest work shift. Per IBMC Section 19.04.575, net floor area is defined as, “…the total horizontal area of all the floors of a building included within the interior walls, exclusive of areas used exclusively for permanently installed heating and air conditioning units, mechanical equipment rooms, elevator shafts, basements or attics less than seven feet in height, permanent parking spaces, driveways, ramps, common kitchens, bathrooms, and hallways included within a building and areas used exclusively by employees in commercial and manufacturing businesses within a building.” As the proposed Raising Cane’s building interior would be exclusively utilized by employees with the only customer accessible space being a bathroom, there is no proposed net floor area for this project. However, staff requested that the applicant provide parking calculations for the outdoor patio seating area to meet the intent of the requirement which is to provide customers and employees with sufficient off-street parking. The outdoor patio is 776 square feet (1 stall/50 square feet) = 16 off-street parking spaces and the largest shift would have 10 employees (1 stall/2 employees) = 5 off-street parking spaces for a total of 21 off-street parking spaces for the project. The applicant has proposed to provide a total of 16 off-street parking spaces, including 11 standard, two ADA stalls, three designated mobile curbside pickup, and three designated carpool/vanpool/EV charging stations in conjunction with implementing transportation demand management (TDM) strategies to off-set the employee and customer parking needs.

The applicant assessed the potential TDM strategies for the project site and developed a TDM Plan to off-set the employee and customer parking needs, reduce vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions, while increasing the utilization of active transportation. The TDM plan recommendations were to implement the following strategies:
• Providing secure bicycle storage racks for at least (2) bicycles. A long-term bicycle parking rack should also be provided for (1) bicycle. These storage racks should be provided at the Raising Cane’s.
• Clean air / Vanpool / EV parking spaces to be provided per the 2019 CALGreen standards but also to encourage carpooling for employees. • Disseminate information on the two SDMTS bus routes within a short walking distance of the Raising Cane’s. Bus Routes 933/934 and 901 provide convenient access to the property along 9th Street and Palm Avenue. • Raising Cane’s to offer Commuter Benefits which allow Crew members (employees) to defer pre-tax funds towards their own purchasing of transit funds.

The applicant is proposing to include a new bicycle parking area inclusive of two secure bicycle storage areas, one for long-term bicycle parking (one long term covered, lockable enclosure with permanently anchored racks for one bicycle) and one for shortPage 167 of 574 Resolution No. 2022-73

Page 8 of 17 ends

term bicycle parking (three new bicycle racks with two bike capacity each); three designated mobile curbside pickup and three designated carpool/vanpool/EV charging stations; will disseminate information on the two SDMTS bus routes 933/934 and 901; and provide commuter benefits to their employees. The proposed 16 parking spaces proposed for the project in conjunction with the implementation of the TDM strategies would meet the purpose of the off-street parking requirements which is to provide space off public streets for automobiles and other vehicles, to prevent traffic congestion, to encourage safe vehicular travel, and to provide for the welfare and convenience of residents and shoppers.

In accordance with the City’s commercial landscaping requirements, the parking lot would include landscaping such as trees, shrubs, and grasses. Additionally, as a part of the project, one existing curb cut off 9th Street would be removed.

The opening to the drive-through lane would be located at the northeastern corner of the proposed building, and the drive-through lane would wrap around the north and east sides of the building in a counter-clockwise direction. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes and two order boards, which would allow Raising Cane’s to take orders from two customers at the same time. After the order boards, the two lanes would merge into a single drive-through lane prior to the pay and pick-up window.

Overall, the project site would provide a total queuing capacity of 300 feet, for a drivethrough queuing capacity of 15 vehicles. Additionally, the site would have an additional on-site queuing capacity of 145 feet in the drive aisle connecting to Palm Avenue, and 120 feet in the drive aisle connecting to Ninth Street, resulting in an additional on-site queuing capacity of 13 vehicles.

The applicant completed a drive-through (DT) queuing analysis for the proposed project to evaluate the adequacy of the drive-through lane queuing capacity. The applicant analyzed the proposed restaurant against two existing Raising Cane’s located within San Diego County. Based on the report’s findings, it was determined that the proposed project site would have an on-site queuing capacity of 28 vehicles which would be able to accommodate the expected peak demand. The applicant would be required to show conformance with the off-street parking requirements per IBMC Section 19.48.050.

18. All other applicable provisions of the Zoning Code are complied with.

The project complies with all other criteria set forth in the City of Imperial Beach Zoning ordinance.

19. Any other considerations as the Community Development Department deem necessary to preserve the health, safety and convenience of the City in general.

Standard and applicable conditions of approval have been included with the Resolution to further ensure that the health, safety, welfare, and convenience of the City in general is preserved.

20. Public Notice requirements, pursuant to Zoning Ordinance Section 19.81.050, have been satisfied.

The project description and the date of the City Council public hearing were sent to property owners within 300 feet and occupants within 100 feet of the subject site on September 7, 2022, and a public hearing notice was published in the Imperial Beach Eagle & Times newspaper on September 8, 2022.

The design is the result of calculations made using Visual® lighting application software, photometric/radiometric data measured in a laboratory, and certain computational and modeling assumptions.Far-field photometric/radiometric data may have been used to perform one or more calculations. Photometric/radiometric data is typically collected under far-fieldmeasurement conditions; far-field data is not generally representative of near-field geometric conditions. When using far-field photometric/ radiometric data, theVisual software applies certain generalizing assumptions to approximate near-field performance. These approximations may result in significant inaccuracies inindividual calculated luminous and/or radiant power quantities in areas where a source is in close proximity to a particular surface or point.

The modeling of radiant flux exchange used in the Visual software requires a uniform exitance across each reflecting surface. The Visual software approximates the uniform surface exitance condition by adaptively subdividing surfaces with non-uniform exitances into subsurfaces with sufficiently uniform exitance gradients.Practical restrictions, due to computer hardware limitations, may prevent the subdivision procedure from subdividing surfaces with high exitance gradients intosubsurfaces with sufficiently uniform exitance gradients, introducing potential discretization error into calculated values.Calculations performed by the Visual software assume that all reflected flux is reflected in a perfectly diffuse (Lambertian) and spectrally uniform manner across the spectral range being analyzed. If actual reflectance characteristics differ from these assumptions, observed luminous and/or radiant power quantities may differ from predicted quantities.As a result of the computational limitations and simplifying modeling assumptions described above, and/or variations in actual product performance from testedproduct samples, the accuracy of calculated output values identifying expected radiometric quantities and any resulting derived radiation dose calculations may be adversely affected.In addition, the accuracy of the application design may be adversely affected if information about the physical space provided to Acuity Brands Lighting isincomplete, inaccurate, outdated or not in the required format (including but not limited to floor plans, space layout, reflected ceiling plans, physical structures,electrical design or specifications), if incorrect assumptions are made because of such deficiencies in the information provided, or if typical assumptions made about the depicted physical space are not appropriate for the space. Furthermore, actual field performance may differ from performance calculated using laboratory measurements as the result of miscalculations related to deficiencies in the information provided about the physical space, degradation factors in the end- userenvironment (including, but not limited to, voltage variation and dirt accumulation), or other possible variations in field conditions. Finally, lamp lumen depreciationand/or depreciation in lamp radiant intensity may result in performance over time that differs from performance calculated using a new lamp. Light loss factors mayhave been used in the application design to estimate such depreciation, but flaws in these estimates may also result in performance over time that differs fromcalculated performance.It is the obligation of the end-user to consult with appropriately qualified Professional Engineer(s) to determine whether this application design meets the applicablerequirements for performance, code compliance, safety, suitability and effectiveness for use in a particular application. In no event will Acuity Brands Lighting be responsible for any loss resulting from any use of this application design.

SUBJECT: TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR RAISING CANE’S RESTAURANT AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF 9TH STREET & PALM

AVENUE, IN THE CITY OF IMPERIAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA
Dear Mr. Layman:

Transmitted herein is a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan for the proposed Raising Cane’s Restaurant (refer to as “the restaurant” hereinafter), a high turnover, restaurant with outdoor patio seating with drive through service, at the northeast corner of the intersection of 9
th Street and Palm Avenue, in the City of Imperial
Beach, California. This TDM Plan was prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates, Orange, California, and developed in conjunction with a Local Transportation Analysis for the Raising Cane’s (report dated July 2022). The report was commissioned by Raising Cane’s Restaurants, LLC and prepared by Kimley-Horn and Associates.

Description of Proposed Raising Cane’s Restaurant
The proposed Raising Cane’s in Imperial Beach will be developed at the existing Union Bank location. The existing building and site parking lot will be demolished and reconfigured as part of this project. Figure 1 illustrates the location of the proposed Raising Cane’s.

The proposed restaurant will provide customer ordering via walk-up and an outdoor patio area for seating. There is no interior customer seating area aside from access to customer restrooms. The building is 1,918 square feet of interior space, and has an additional 722 square feet of covered outdoor patio area. The restaurant will seat a total of up to 48 outdoor seating. The restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the proposed hours of operation are 9:00 A.M. to 03:30 A.M. Monday to Sunday. The average number of employees per shift is estimated to be 10, although more employees could be brought on to handle special events or peak hours of business.

Description of Property
The 0.61-acre property will contain one 1,918 square feet proposed building with 16 parking spaces, including 2 handicapped parking spaces. All parking spaces on site will Attachment 6

Page 218 of 574 ends

2 | P a g e
be designated for exclusive use by Raising Cane’s. The property is accessed regionally via 9
th Street and Palm Avenue. Commercial development surrounds the site.

TDM Site Development Standards
The purpose and intent of the City of Imperial Beach Transportation Demand Management comes from the City of Imperial Beach General Plan/Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan Policies Section 3.5.11 which require employers to provide incentives for their employees including providing public transit passes or subsidies, rideshare/ride hailing subsidies, implementation of ridesharing programs, preferred parking for carpool/vanpool, and on-site shower facilities. The ‘Innovative Technologies and Strategies’ section of the City of Imperial Beach General Plan/Local Coastal Program Land Use Plan states the implementation of programs and strategies that manage and reduce traffic congestion by encouraging the use of transportation alternatives. It is recommended in Policies Section 3.1.23 to collaborate with SANDAG and pursue local measures to encourage application of TDM strategies to reduce vehicle miles travelled, parking demand and greenhouse gas emissions, while increasing active transportation.

The provisions set forth in the Land Use Plan regarding the TDM apply to commercial and mixed-use districts.

Parking for Carpool Vehicles
The property contains 16 on-site parking spaces for customers and employees.

Carpooling, while encouraged, cannot be mandated or enforced, and would prove impractical to achieve with any degree of success. Thus designating “Carpool Only” parking spaces would prove ineffective and negatively impact the availability of parking for customers and employees.

However as required by 2019 CALGreen Chapter 5 Nonresidential Mandatory Measures – Section 5.106.5.3 “In new projects or additions or alterations that add 10 or more vehicular parking space, provide designated parking for any combination of low-emitting, fuel-efficient, carpool/vanpool vehicles.” Per the City’s municipal code, Raising Cane’s is required to provide 21 parking stalls. As a result, Raising Cane’s is required to provide 3 designated “Clean air / Vanpool / EV” stalls per 2019 CALGreen Table 5.106.5.2.

A traffic study was conducted which includes a parking analysis for the property because proposed conditions show less than 21 parking stalls. The traffic study can be found in Appendix B.

Although the designation of stalls for “Carpool Only” use would prove ineffective and negatively impact the availability of parking for customers and employees, the combined designation will encourage the use of carpool without negatively impact the availability of parking for customers and employees. The location of the proposed designated stalls is included in Figure 2.

3 | P a g e
Shower and Locker Facilities
Since the property is a food service establishment, it is not recommended that shower and locker facilities be required. Providing these amenities is not feasible for businesses with limited space and limited resources, and could cause health and safety issues for restaurants, such as the Raising Cane’s.

Bicycle Parking
The property generates bicycle traffic, buffered bike lanes are provided on Palm Avenue in the immediate vicinity of the project site. Per the Palm Avenue Master Plan, bike lanes are shown to be proposed within the intersection of Palm Ave and SR-75.

On-site, permanent anchored bicycle racks within 200 feet of visitor’s entrances, readily available to passers-by, for 5 percent of new visitors motorized vehicle parking spaces being added; 3 new bicycle racks with two (2) bike capacity each will be installed on Raising Cane’s development as noted in Figure 2.

Additionally, one (1) long term covered, lockable enclosure with permanently anchored racks for one (1) bicycle will be installed on the Raising Cane’s development as noted in Figure 2. The intent of this is to propose the use of bicycles for employees as an alternative means of transportation.

Commuter Information Areas
The use of alternative modes of transportation can be encouraged by providing information and incentives. However, offering incentives to employees to use alternative modes of transportation cannot be imposed on these businesses without potential cost and liability implications.

Per SANDAG, an iCommute employer service program has been implemented to provide free assistance to local businesses, helping them develop and implement customized employee commuter benefit programs that lower costs, increase productivity, and help the environment. Raising Cane’s can contact iCommute for a 30 min needs assessment where one will be guided through the stages of participation.

A Guaranteed Ride Home (GRH) program is also provided as a safety net for commuters who carpool, vanpool, take transit, walk or bike to work. GRH provides a free ride home up to three times per year in the event of a personal or family emergency, unexpected overtime, carpool or vanpool ride being unavailable, vehicle breakdown or being stranded at work due to a bike problem. The employee must be pre-enrolled in the program.

It should be noted that an abundance of information on transit use, bikeways, etc., is readily available from public sources such as the San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (SDMTS) and the City of Imperial Beach. SDMTS's route schedules and online public transit trip planners are available at www.sdmts.com. Other sources of information on

Page 220 of 574 ends

4 | P a g e
regional transit include Amtrak at www.amtrak.com, and the Administrative Services Department of the City of Imperial Beach at www.imperialbeachca.gov. This information could be placed on bulletin boards that may be available in some establishments like the proposed Raising Cane’s.

Passenger Loading Areas
Providing designated passenger loading areas within the property is impractical due to constraints within the lot and parking requirements and could lead to internal circulation and parking problems by creating potential congestion points, and customer abuse.

Raising Cane’s customers who elect to use the restaurant’s walk-in service instead of the drive-through generally do not order food for take-out and will eat at the restaurant’s outdoor patio seating. Thus, a dedicated loading passenger loading area for the Raising Cane’s would be ill advised as it would reduce the parking area available for customer / employee parking and see seldom use.

Parking for Vanpool Vehicles
For the same reason that designated carpool parking is not recommended, designated parking for vanpool vehicles should not be implemented in the property. The employee population with identical work hours required for effective vanpooling is extremely limited.

Restaurants in particular operate in staggered shifts that are not conducive to employee carpooling or vanpooling. As noted in the “Parking for Carpool Vehicles” section above 3 “EV / Vanpool / Clean Air” stalls are provided in accordance to 2019 CALGreen Chapter

5. SANDAG has a Vanpool Program which provides commuter groups of five or more with a cost-effective alternative to driving alone. SANDAG contracts with three vanpool vendors that provide vehicles, maintenance and insurance and also provides up to a $400 monthly subsidy to qualified vanpools, reducing the lease cost. SANDAG information and details should be provided to the employees upon initiation of employment.

The designation of stalls for “Vanpool Only” use would prove ineffective and negatively impact the availability of parking for customers and employees. The combined designation will encourage the use of carpool without negatively impacting the availability of parking for customers and employees. The location of the proposed designated stalls is included in Figure 2.

Bus Stops
Two (2) existing Bus Routes operate within walking distance of the site. SDMTS Bus Route 933/934 (Iris Ave TC – Imperial Beach) operates on Palm Avenue and stops across the street from the proposed Raising Cane’s in the eastbound direction on the northern side of the 76 gas station and on the opposite side heading in the westbound direction, the Bus Stop is located in front of the Jack in the Box along Palm Avenue. SDMTS Bus Route 901 (Iris Ave TC – Coronado – Downtown) operates on 9 th Street and continues
north on Silver Strand Blvd in the northbound direction with a Bus Stop in front of Jack in

Page 221 of 574 ends

5 | P a g e
the Box, the same one mentioned prior. Appendix A contains the bus schedules for these two SDMTS routes. Public transportation information and details should be provided to the employees upon initiation of employment. The location of the existing bus stops on Palm Avenue is included in Figure 2.

Promoting Alternative Transportation
A key to promoting employee and patron use of alternative transportation is informing and educating prospective users of the availability and benefits of alternative transportation, and by providing functional improvements that benefit users directly. The educational and promotional function is the responsibility of the tenants, who should provide information to employees and customers.

Public Transit Use
Transit currently services the site in the form of SDMTS Bus service, so public transit is a viable commute option for employees. SDMTS Bus Route (Iris Ave TC – Imperial Beach) operates on Palm Avenue and Bus Route (Iris Ave TC – Coronado – Downtown) on 9
th Street and Silver Strand Blvd near to the subject site. A brief description of both bus routes are as follows:
▪ Route 933/934 – The service frequency on this route, which is designated as the Imperial Beach route, is generally every 30 mins – 1 hr in the eastbound and westbound direction. This route runs primarily along Palm Avenue, but also services Imperial Beach Pier, Kaiser Permanente, Mar Vista High School, Montgomery High School, Naval Auxiliary Landing Field, Palm Promenade and Southwest High School. The route runs Monday – Sunday.
▪ Route 901 – The service frequency on this route, which is designated as the Imperial Beach to San Diego Downtown route is generally every 15 – 30 minutes in the southbound and northbound direction. The route runs from Coronado Avenue and north up Silver Strand Blvd past the San Diego Bay which then passes the Coronado Bay Bridge to Downtown. The route services Coronado Cays, Coronado City Hall, Hotel del Coronado, NAS North Island, Naval Base Coronado, and PETCO Park. The route runs Monday – Sunday.

Current SDMTS bus and trolley schedules and maps can be obtained online at www.sdmts.com or by dialing 619-233-3004. Increasing the use of public transit is the most practical of the TDM strategies as it represents a total removal of passenger vehicle trips from the streets and highways system, and the elimination of the use of parking spaces at the destination point. However, increasing transit ridership is mainly an economic decision for most and a matter of convenience to others. While there are no fixed-rail transit systems in operation in the vicinity of the property, dissemination of information regarding bus routes and schedules may encourage some people to use public transit.

Another key to promoting employee use of alternative transportation is to provide

Page 222 of 574 ends

6 | P a g e
incentives to help them obtain transit passes. Raising Cane’s will offer Commuter Benefits which will allow crew members to defer pre-tax funds towards their purchasing of transit cards.

Bicycle Use
Bicycles are alternative modes of transportation to the use of passenger vehicles and have the opportunity to be highly utilized. Palm Avenue has buffered bicycle lanes and bicycle racks will be provided on-site to encourage the use of bicycles as a mode of transportation. Inclement weather is rare in the south bay area of San Diego therefore it should not be a factor to decrease bicycle usage.

SANDAG has a Bike Encouragement Program which supports the regional bike network and facilitates bike commuting by hosting Bike to Work Day events, funding mini-grants in support of Bike Month events, offering complimentary employer bike services and producing the San Diego Regional Bike Map. Further information will be provided to the employer regarding the program.

TDM Plan Summary
TDM strategies can be used to reduce passenger vehicle trips and parking demand. After consideration of the various TDM strategies available to affect such reductions, the following components have been deemed most appropriate for the property, and should be incorporated into the overall TDM Plan:
➢ Secure bicycle storage racks should be provided for at least (2) bicycles. A longterm bicycle parking rack should also be provided for (1) bicycle. These storage racks should be provided at the Raising Cane’s.
➢ Clean air / Vanpool / EV parking spaces to be provided per the 2019 CALGreen standards but also to encourage carpooling for employees. ➢ Disseminate information on the two SDMTS bus routes within a short walking distance of the Raising Cane’s. Bus Routes 933/934 and 901 provide convenient access to the property along 9th Street and Palm Avenue.

In Closing
In closing, this TDM Plan, if implemented, will provide incentives, such as free or subsidized transit passes, and information to employees and patrons of the property to consider and use alternative modes of transportation.

Kimley-Horn and Associates

LOCAL TRANSPORTATION ASSESSMENT

FOR THE PROPOSED
RAISING CANE’S PROJECT

IN THE CITY OF IMPERIAL BEACH

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) has been prepared to evaluate the project-related traffic effects associated with the proposed Raising Cane’s project in the City of Imperial Beach. This LTA has been conducted in coordination with the City of Imperial Beach and in accordance with the City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020).

The project has been evaluated during the weekday midday peak and evening peak hours for the following conditions:
· Existing Conditions
· Existing Plus Project
· Opening Year 2023 (Existing + Ambient Growth + Cumulative Projects) · Opening Year 2023 Plus Project
Under Existing Conditions, all study intersections currently operate at an acceptable Level of Service (LOS).

The project is estimated to generate approximately 1,097 net new vehicle trips on a daily basis, 52 net new trips during the midday peak hour, and 52 net new trips during the PM peak hour.

Project-related traffic volumes were added to Existing Conditions to establish the conditions for the Existing Plus Project scenario. With the addition of project traffic to Existing Conditions, all study intersections would continue to operate at an acceptable LOS.

An annual ambient growth rate of 2% and cumulative project traffic were added to Existing Conditions to develop Opening Year 2023 Cumulative without Project forecasts.

Under Opening Year 2023 Cumulative, all study intersections would continue to operate at an acceptable LOS.

Project-related traffic volumes were added to Opening Year 2023 Cumulative forecasts to establish the conditions for the Opening Year 2023 Cumulative Plus Project scenario. With the addition of project traffic to Opening Year 2023 Cumulative forecasts, all study intersections would continue to operate at an acceptable LOS.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 2 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
Vehicular access provisions for the project site would be provided via one existing full-movement driveway on Ninth Street and one existing right-in-right-out (RIRO) only driveway on Palm Avenue.

All project driveways would be unsignalized.

The proposed project would provide a drive-through lane with two order boards. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes to the dual order boards, and then merge into a single drive-through lane prior to the pay and pick-up windows. The proposed project would provide a total drive-through queue length of approximately 200 feet, for a drive-through queueing capacity of 10 vehicles, assuming 20 feet per vehicle, from the beginning of the drive-through lanes to the pick-up window.

Under peak drive-through conditions, the project would allow for an additional pay and pick-up lane, which would provide an additional queue length of 100 feet, or 5 vehicles. Overall, the project site provides a total queuing capacity of 300 feet, for a drive-through queuing capacity of 15 vehicles.

Per the City of Imperial Beach Municipal code, the proposed parking requirement for the project is 21 parking spaces. The site provides 16 parking spaces; therefore, the site would have a deficit of 5 parking spaces compared to City code.

A parking study was conducted to determine whether or not the proposed parking supply will adequately accommodate the parking demands of the project.

Parking data was collected at two comparable Raising Cane’s sites, from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM on a typical weekday, and weekend.

Based on the parking data collected, the peak parking demand was observed to be 7.378 parking spaces per thousand square feet (KSF) of restaurant development.

Applying the peak observed parking ratio of 7.378 spaces per KSF to the proposed project would result in a parking requirement of 14 spaces.

Based on the parking analysis, the proposed parking supply will adequately accommodate the parking demands of the Raising Cane’s project.

LOCAL TRANSPORTATION ASSESSMENT

FOR THE PROPOSED
RAISING CANE’S PROJECT

IN THE CITY OF IMPERIAL BEACH

INTRODUCTION
This Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) has been prepared to evaluate the project-related traffic effects associated with the proposed Raising Cane’s fast-food restaurant located on the northeast corner of Ninth Street and Palm Avenue in the City of Imperial Beach.

This study has been conducted in coordination with the City of Imperial Beach and in accordance with the City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelinesfor Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020). This study includes an evaluation of project-related effects on the surrounding roadway system, a drive-through queuing analysis, and a parking analysis.

Where necessary, circulation system improvements have been identified at study locations.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located on the northeast corner of Ninth Street and Palm Avenue in the City of Imperial Beach and is shown in its regional setting in Figure 1. The project site is currently occupied by an approximately 4,867-square-foot bank building. The project will involve the demolition of the existing commercial bank building and the construction of a 1,918-square-foot Raising Cane’s restaurant building with a drive-through. The operating hours for walk-in and drive-through service will be from 9:00 am to 3:30 am Monday through Sunday. The project site plan is provided in Figure

2. Vehicular access provisions for the project site would be provided via one existing full-movement driveway on Ninth Street and one existing right-in-right-out (RIRO) only driveway on Palm Avenue.

All project driveways would be unsignalized.

The proposed project would provide a drive-through lane with two order boards. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes and two order boards, and then merge into a single drivethrough lane prior to the pay and pick-up window. Under peak drive-through conditions, the project would allow for an additional pay and pick-up lane.

LEVEL OF SERVICE (LOS) ANALYSIS
This LTA has been prepared in coordination with the City of Imperial Beach and in accordance with the City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelinesfor Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020).

Analysis Scenarios
The project will be evaluated for the following conditions:
· Existing Conditions
· Existing Plus Project
· Opening Year 2023 (Existing + Ambient Growth + Cumulative Projects) · Opening Year 2023 Plus Project
Since Raising Cane’s is not open during the morning peak hour, the intersection analysis will be conducted for the midday and evening peak hours only.

Study Locations
The LTA will be conducted at the following study intersections:

1. Palm Avenue at Ninth Street
D1. Palm Avenue at Project Driveway 1
D2. Ninth Street at Project Driveway 2
The study locations were established in consultation with City staff through the Scoping Agreement process. A copy of the approved Scoping Agreement is provided in Appendix A.

Analysis Methodology
Peak hour intersection operations at signalized and unsignalized intersections were evaluated using the methods prescribed in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 6th Edition, consistent with the requirements of the City of Imperial Beach.

For signalized intersections, the HCM methodology estimates the average delay (in average seconds per vehicle) for each of the movements through the intersection, considering a number of factors, including number of lanes, volume of traffic, cycle length, and signal timing and phasing.

For unsignalized intersections, the HCM methodology analysis determines the average total delay for each vehicle making any movement from the stop-controlled minor street, as well as left turns from the major street. Delay values are calculated based on the relationship between traffic on the major street and the availability of acceptable gaps in the traffic stream through which conflicting traffic movements can be made.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 7 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
The HCM delay forecast translates to a Level of Service designation, ranging from LOS A to LOS F. A summary description of each Level of Service and the corresponding delay is provided in the following chart.

LEVEL OF SERVICE DESCRIPTIONS

HCM METHODOLOGY
LOS
Average Delay
(sec / vehicle) Description
Signalized Unsignalized
A < 10.0 < 10.0 LOS A represents free flow. Individual users are virtually unaffected by the presence of others in the traffic stream.

B > 10.0 - 20.0 > 10.0 - 15.0
LOS B represents stable flow, but the presence of others in the traffic stream begins to be noticeable. Freedom to select desired speeds is relatively unaffected, but there is a slight decline in the freedom to maneuver.

C > 20.0 - 35.0 > 15.0 - 25.0
LOS C is in the range of stable flow but marks the beginning of operation in which individual users become affected by interaction with others in the traffic stream.

D > 35.0 - 55.0 > 25.0 - 35.0
LOS D represents high-density, but stable flow. Speed and freedom to maneuver are restricted, and the driver
experiences a generally poor level of comfort and
convenience.

E > 55.0 - 80.0 > 35.0 - 50.0
LOS E represents operating conditions at or near the capacity of the intersection. All speeds are reduced to a low, but relatively uniform level. Small increases in flow will cause breakdowns in traffic movement.

F > 80.0 > 50.0
LOS F represents forced, or breakdown flow. This condition occurs when the amount of traffic approaching the
intersection exceeds the volume which can pass through the intersection, resulting in queues and congestion.

Performance Criteria
The City of Imperial Beach Level of Service standard for intersection operation is Level of Service D or better. If the project traffic causes operations at an intersection to go from acceptable to unacceptable, the project would have a significant effect at the intersection.

PROJECT TRAFFIC
Project Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the existing and proposed uses are based on the SANDAG Brief Guide of Vehicular Traffic Generation rate for the San Diego Region (April 2002). Pass-by reduction factors were applied to the existing and proposed land uses.

The trip generation rates and the resulting trip generation estimates for the proposed Raising Cane’s project are summarized on Table 2. After applying pass-by reduction factors, the project is estimated to generate approximately 1,097 net new vehicle trips on a daily basis, 52 net new vehicle trips during the midday peak hour, and 52 net new vehicle trips during the PM peak hour.

Trip Distribution and Assignment
Trip distribution assumptions for the project were based on proximity to regional and local roadways and existing travel patterns. Trip distribution percentages at each study intersection were applied to the project trip generation to determine the project trips through each intersection. The project trip distribution and resulting project-related peak hour trips to be added to the surrounding street system are shown on Figure 5.

EXISTING PLUS PROJECT CONDITION
This section addresses the potential effects associated with adding project-related trips to Existing Condition traffic volumes. The Existing Plus Project scenario is a hypothetical scenario which assumes that the Project would be fully implemented at the present time, with no other changes to area traffic volumes or to the street network serving the site. This analysis assumes full development of the Project and full absorption of Project traffic on the circulation system at the present time.

Peak Hour Intersection Operations
Project-related trips were added to existing traffic volumes to develop forecasts for the Existing Plus Project scenario. The resulting midday peak hour and PM peak hour traffic volumes are shown on Figure 6. The results of the intersection analysis for Existing Plus Project conditions are shown on Table 3. Review of this table indicates all study intersections would continue to operate at an acceptable Level of Service. Intersection analysis worksheets are provided in Appendix C.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
OPENING YEAR 2023 CONDITIONS
The project Opening Year is anticipated to be 2023. Opening Year 2023 Cumulative traffic forecasts have been developed by adding an ambient growth rate of two percent per year to existing traffic volumes. In addition to ambient growth, traffic from Cumulative Projects in the project vicinity were added to the Opening Year forecasts to develop Opening Year 2023 Cumulative conditions.

Cumulative Projects consist of any project that has been approved and is not yet occupied, and projects that are in various stages of the application and approval process but have not yet been approved.

Information regarding Cumulative Projects in the area was obtained using nearby traffic studies. A summary of Cumulative Projects, including associated trip generation is provided in Table 4. The trip generation estimates for the Cumulative Projects were obtained from approved traffic studies, where available and were developed by Kimley-Horn if approved traffic studies were not available.

The locations of the Cumulative Projects are shown on Figure 7.

Trip distribution and assignment for the Cumulative Projects were obtained from approved traffic studies, where available; and were developed by Kimley-Horn if approved traffic studies were not available. Traffic volumes associated with the Cumulative Projects were compiled for each of the study intersections and are shown on Figure 8. The Cumulative Projects traffic volumes were added to the Opening Year 2023 traffic volumes. The resulting traffic volumes for Opening Year 2023 Cumulative conditions are shown on Figure 9.

Peak Hour Intersection Operations
The results of the Opening Year 2023 Cumulative peak hour intersection analysis are summarized on Table 5. Review of this table shows that, with the addition of ambient growth and cumulative traffic, all study intersections would continue to operate at an acceptable Level of Service under Opening Year 2023 Cumulative conditions.

RECOMMENDED IMPROVEMENTS
Based on the Level of Service standards and requirements for improvements noted earlier in the report (see page 7), no improvements are required for the project.

DRIVE-THROUGH QUEUING ANALYSIS
The City has requested that a drive-through (DT) queuing analysis be conducted for the proposed project, to evaluate the adequacy of the drive-through lane queuing capacity.

The opening to the drive-through lane would be located at the northeastern corner of the proposed building, and the drive-through lane would wrap around the north and west sides of the building in a counter-clockwise direction. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes and two order boards, which would allow Raising Cane’s to take orders from two customers at the same time. After the order boards, the two lanes would merge into a single drive-through lane prior to the pay and pick-up window.

There will be approximately 100 feet (approximately 50 feet per lane) of total queuing capacity from the drive-through entrance to the two order boards and approximately 100 feet from the order boards to the pick-up window. This would provide a total drive-through queue length of approximately 200 feet, for a drive-through queueing capacity of 10 vehicles, assuming 20 feet per vehicle, from the beginning of the drive-through lanes to the pay and pick-up window.

Under peak drive-through conditions, the project site would allow for an additional pay and pick-up lane, which would provide an additional queue length of 100 feet, or 5 vehicles. Overall, the project site would provide a total queuing capacity of 300 feet, for a drive-through queuing capacity of 15 vehicles.

Queuing Data Collection
Based on correspondence with City staff, drive-through queuing observations and counts were conducted at the following existing drive-through Raising Cane’s sites in February 2022:
· City of Santee: 8867 Cuyamaca Street (~4,473 SF; DT Lane Capacity: 24 vehicles) · City of San Diego: 8223 Mira Mesa Boulevard (~3,975 SF; DT Lane Capacity: 18 vehicles) These sites were selected for queuing data collection because of the following site characteristics that are similar to the proposed project:
· A Raising Cane’s restaurant with a drive-through lane · Located in San Diego County
· Located adjacent to or within a large commercial center

Page 260 of 574 ends

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 27 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
The drive-through activity was observed during the following times for the Raising Cane’s sites on a typical weekday and Saturday:
· 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM (lunchtime)
· 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM (commute peak hour/dinnertime)
A copy of the queuing data collection worksheets is provided in Appendix D.

The results of the observations for a typical weekday and Saturday are summarized on Tables 7 and 8, respectively. The data summaries on Tables 7 and 8 present the number of vehicles in the drivethrough lane, broken down into 15-minute periods, based on the observed average queue, 85th percentile queue, and the peak queue for each of the data collection periods.

Queuing Observations
The queuing activity was observed to vary with an ebb and flow pattern throughout the data collection periods. The following vehicle movement and queuing observations of the drive-through operations at the study locations were made:

Santee Site
· The peak 15 minutes during the weekday lunch-time peak was from 1:00 PM to 1:15 PM, with an average queue of 18 vehicles and a peak queue of 21 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the weekday dinner-time peak was from 5:45 PM to 6:00 PM, with an average queue of 23 vehicles and a peak queue of 28 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the Saturday lunch-time peak was from 12:30 PM to 12:45 PM, with an average queue of 23 vehicles and a peak queue of 26 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the Saturday dinner-time peak was from 6:15 PM to 6:30 PM, with an average queue of 20 vehicles and a peak queue of 23 vehicles.

San Diego Site
· The peak 15 minutes during the weekday lunch-time peak was from 1:00 PM to 1:15 PM, with an average queue of 13 vehicles and a peak queue of 16 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the weekday dinner-time peak was from 5:45 PM to 6:00 PM, with an average queue of 15 vehicles and a peak queue of 16 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the Saturday lunch-time peak was from 12:45 PM to 1:00 PM, with an average queue of 11 vehicles and a peak queue of 15 vehicles. · The peak 15 minutes during the Saturday dinner-time peak was from 5:00 PM to 5:15 PM, with an average queue of 8 vehicles and a peak queue of 12 vehicles.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 30 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
General Observations
· At the Raising Cane’s sites, spillovers outside the drive-through lane opening were observed to occur occasionally and to last briefly.
· Some customers were observed to pull into the site; evaluate the wait time, based on the vehicle queue; and choose to park and go into the building, rather than join the existing queue. · Based on the drive-through queuing data, the average of the peak observed queues at both sites would be 20 vehicles and the average of the maximum peak queue at both sites would be 22 vehicles. The proposed site would have a drive-through queuing capacity of 15 vehicles. · The site would have an additional on-site queuing capacity of 145 feet in the drive aisle connecting to Palm Avenue, and 120 feet in the drive aisle connecting to Ninth Street, resulting in an additional on-site queuing capacity of 265 feet, or 13 vehicles, assuming 20 feet per vehicle.
· The project site would have an on-site queuing capacity of 28 vehicles; therefore, the proposed capacity would be able to accommodate the expected peak demand. · Spillover queuing may impact site ingress/egress, traffic circulation through the site, and temporarily block access to parking spaces. It is recommended that Raising Cane’s work with the City to develop a Traffic Management Plan (TMP) to manage drive-through queuing during peak operating conditions.

Side-by-Side Operational Features
The proposed side-by-side configuration would begin with a two drive-through lanes at the northeast corner of the building. Each drive-through lane would have its own order board. After the order boards, the two lanes would merge back into one lane for the pay and pick-up window.

While regular customers who are familiar with the menu choices typically would complete the order part of the process in less than the average time, infrequent or new customers are more likely to dwell at the menu board before making their choices, slowing down the process for everyone behind them. As a result, the order board is considered to be the most significant bottleneck in the drivethrough process.

The side-by-side ordering configuration, as proposed by Raising Cane’s, would provide two lanes with a separate order board for each lane. This will increase the number of customers processed through the order board portion of the drive-through, and “keep the line moving” even if one customer takes a longer-than-average time to make their menu selections, allowing the restaurant to continue to take and complete orders from the other order lane.

Page 264 of 574 ends

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 31 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
The newest customer to arrive at the drive-through entrance will naturally choose the empty lane or the shorter line, so that one customer who takes a longer time to order at one order board can be by-passed, thereby not holding up the entire drive-through line.

With the added efficiency of having two order boards and the ability to by-pass customers taking a longer-than-average time to order at the other order board, the service rate would increase, compared to a single order board, as more orders can be processed. The cooks would receive the orders at a more efficient rate, which allows them to continue cooking the food, rather than waiting for the slower customer to finish ordering. Because of added efficiency in the cooking area, the efficiency at the pick-up window would increase, compared to a single drive-through lane, because the food would be processed by the cooking area at a more efficient rate.

Unique Features
Raising Cane’s implements hand-held ordering which involves an employee using a hand-held tablet to take orders and payments in the line ahead of the order window. Hand-held ordering can be executed with three to five employees during the peak time periods. Employees will “leapfrog” one another in the drive-through lane, allowing orders to come in twice as fast. Hand-held ordering ensures accuracy of orders, allows more time for the kitchen to prepare the order prior to the customer reaching the pick-up window, and removes the payment process at the window. In addition to hand-held ordering Raising Cane’s has implemented mobile ordering which helps to manage the drive-through queue.

Other unique features that assist Raising Cane’s with processing vehicles efficiently through the drive-through include the following:
· A focused menu with limited items allows for efficient ordering · On-site cameras that allow Raising Cane’s to start preparing more food once they see vehicles parking or pulling into the drive-through
The unique features noted above allow Raising Cane’s to process vehicles and prepare orders more efficiently, increases the number of customers that can be processed at the drive-through and decreases the amount of time customers spend in the drive-through.

ON-SITE PARKING ASSESSMENT
The proposed Project would provide 11 standard parking spaces, 3 of which will be used for mobile curbside pick-up, 3 EV/Vanpool parking spaces with EV charging stations, and 2 accessible parking spaces for a total of 16 parking spaces. The City of Imperial Beach Municipal Code Section 19.48.050 “Off-Street Parking – Required spaces – Standalone commercial and other uses” outlines the minimum number of parking spaces per square foot by land use. This section of the Municipal Code can be found in Appendix E. These requirements were used to determine the adequacy of the number of parking spaces within the project site and are shown in Table 9.

Page 265 of 574 ends

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 32 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
For drive-through establishments, one parking space is required for each 50 SF of net floor area. The parking analysis was based on the site’s net seating area of 776 SF, resulting in a required number of spaces of 21. The project proposes to provide 16 parking spaces; resulting in a deficit of 5 parking spaces, compared to City code. The following parking analysis has been conducted to determine whether the proposed parking supply will adequately accommodate the parking demands of the project.

PARKING ANALYSIS
Parking Data Collection
To determine the adequacy of the proposed parking supply for the proposed project, parking data was collected at two existing Raising Cane’s restaurants in San Diego County:
· 8867 Cuyamaca Street (Santee Site)
· 8223 Mira Mesa Boulevard (San Diego Site)
These locations were selected because they are within San Diego County, both are comparable in size to the proposed project, and both are located in a similar setting. The Santee Site and San Diego Site restaurant buildings are 4,473 square feet and 3,975 square feet, respectively.

Figure 11 provides an aerial image of the two comparable sites and their respective parking areas.

The Santee Site has a parking supply of 34 spaces. The San Diego Site has a parking supply of 39 spaces.

Parking data collection was conducted in the parking areas of these two sites from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM on Thursday, February 10, 2022, and Saturday February 12, 2022. The number of parked cars in each parking lot were counted and tabulated at the start of each hour. The parking data collection worksheets are provided in Appendix F. A summary of the parking data collected at the two sites is provided in Table 10.

Review of the parking data for the Santee Site indicates a peak of 33 parked vehicles at 4:00 PM on Thursday, February 10, 2022.

The parking data for the San Diego Site indicates a peak of 20 parked vehicles at 1:00 PM on Thursday, February 10, 2022.

The two sites exhibited differences in parking accumulation patterns throughout the day, as well as differences in the number of occupied spaces compared to the size of the buildings. The differences in the parking patterns between the two sites could be the result of differences in a number of operating characteristics, size of workforce, shift schedules, etc.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 33 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
Forecasted Parking Requirement for the Proposed Raising Canes Actual parking demand ratios for the Santee and San Diego sites are derived by dividing the peak number of occupied parking spaces by the square footage of the building, as shown on Table 11. The derived parking ratios ranged between 7.837 parking spaces per thousand square feet (KSF) of building area for the Santee site, and 5.031 spaces per KSF for the San Diego site.

The number of parking spaces forecasted to be needed for the proposed project is then forecasted, based on the parking ratios derived from the collected parking data. Applying the peak observed parking ratio of 7.378 spaces per KSF to the proposed 1,918 square-foot facility would result in a forecasted parking need of 14 spaces. The on-site parking supply of 16 spaces would exceed the forecasted peak parking requirement for the project by 2 spaces, for a parking surplus of 14%. Based on the forecasted peak parking requirement, the proposed parking supply will adequately accommodate the parking demands of the proposed Raising Cane’s project.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 38 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022

SITE ACCESS AND CIRCULATION
Direct vehicular access provisions for the project site would be provided via one existing fullmovement driveway on Ninth Street and one existing right-in-right-out (RIRO) only driveway on Palm Avenue. Parking is accessed from the internal drive aisles. Vehicles have room to maneuver in and out of parking stalls and circulate internally to the site parking. The drive-through entrance and exit are separated from the parking aisle to eliminate potential drive-through queue impacts from blocking parking.

PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE CIRCULATION
There is an existing Class II Bike Lane on Palm Avenue east of Ninth Street. There are existing sidewalks along the project frontage and within the project vicinity on Palm Avenue and Ninth Street.

The project plans to provide pedestrian and bicycle access to the site via a proposed ADA walkway that connects directly to the existing sidewalk on Palm Avenue.

VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED (VMT) ANALYSIS
Senate Bill (SB) 743 was approved by the California legislature in September 2013, requiring changes to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) methodology, specifically directing the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) to develop alternative metrics to the use of vehicular “level of service” (LOS) for evaluating transportation projects. OPR published the Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA (Technical Advisory) in December 2018 providing recommendations for the preparation of transportation impact analysis under SB 743, suggesting Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) to replace LOS as the primary measure of transportation impacts.

The project includes a 1,918 square-foot fast-food restaurant with drive-through. The projects listed in Table 7-1 of City of Imperial Beach’s Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020) are presumed to be considered VMT-reducing projects. The projects listed are either locally serving or are based on substantial evidence provided by the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) Technical Advisory Committee supporting SB 743 implementation. The Technical Advisory on Evaluating Transportation Impacts in CEQA (December 2018) identifies that by adding retail opportunities into the urban fabric and thereby improving retail destination proximity, local-serving retail development tends to shorten trips and reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT).

The City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020) provides guidance on VMT screening criteria for projects.

Imperial Beach Raising Cane’s Project - 39 - Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.

Local Transportation Assessment July 2022
The City guidelines specify that a project shall be screened out if it satisfies any of the following criteria:
· Transit Priority Area (TPA) Screening
· Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening
· Low VMT Area Screening

VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED (VMT) ANALYSIS
Transit Priority Area (TPA) Screening
Projects located within a TPA must be able to access the transit station within a ½ mile walking distance of 6-minute walk continuously without discontinuity of sidewalk or obstructions to the route. Qualifying transit stops means a site containing an existing rail transit station served by either bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major bus routes with a frequency of service interval of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods (OPR, 217). A high-quality transit corridor may also be considered if a corridor with fixed route bus service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours (OPR, 2017). Based on the Transit Priority Area (TPA) map provided in Appendix B of the City’s guidelines, the project is located within a TPA, therefore, the TPA Screening threshold is met.

Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening
Based on the Smart Growth Opportunity Area map provided in Appendix B of the City’s guidelines, the project is located within a Mixed-Use Transit Corridor of the Smart Growth Opportunity Area, therefore, the Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening is met.

Low VMT Area Screening
A project can be identified as being located in a Low VMT Area if the project is located in an area with a regional mean of less than 85%. Review of the SANDAG VMT Screening Map indicates the project is located in an area with a regional mean of 86%, therefore, the Low VMT Area Screening is not met.

Generally, retail development including stores less than 50,000 square feet is considered local serving. The proposed project is less than 50,000 square feet and is not anticipated to lead to longer trips; thus, reducing VMT.

Based on the project being located in a Transit Priority Area, Smart Growth Opportunity Area, as well as being considered local serving retail, the project would be screened out of a VMT analysis. The City may presume such development creates a less than significant transportation impact; therefore, no further VMT analysis is required.

RE: Scoping Letter Agreement for a Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) for the Proposed Raising Cane’s Project in the City of Imperial Beach Dear Ms. Openshaw:

Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. is submitting this Scoping Letter Agreement to the City of Imperial Beach to provide a Local Transportation Assessment (LTA) for the proposed Raising Cane’s Project in the City of Imperial Beach. The proposed LTA scope for the project is presented below.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located on the northeast corner of Ninth Street and Palm Avenue in the City of Imperial Beach. The project site is currently occupied by an approximately 4,867-squarefoot bank building. The project will involve the demolition of the existing commercial bank building and the construction of a 1,918-square-foot Raising Cane’s restaurant building with a drive-through. The operating hours for walk-in and drive-through service will be from 9:00 am to 3:30 am Monday through Sunday. A copy of the project site plan is provided on Attachment 1.

Vehicular access provisions for the project site would be provided via the one existing fullmovement driveway on Ninth Street and one existing right-in-right-out (RIRO) only driveway on Palm Avenue. All project driveways would be unsignalized.

SCOPE OF TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY
This scope is based on the City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020).

Trip Generation
Trip generation estimates for the existing bank and proposed Raising Cane’s restaurant are based on the SANDAG Brief Guide of Vehicular Traffic Generation ratesfor the SanDiego Region (April 2002). Pass-by reduction factors were applied to the existing and proposed land uses.

kimley-horn.com 1100 Town and Country Road, Suite 700, Orange, CA 92868 714 939 1030 The trip rates and the estimated trip estimates for the existing and proposed uses are shown in Attachment 2. After applying pass-by reduction factors and existing use credit, the project is estimated to generate approximately 347 net new vehicle trips on a daily basis, with 16 net new trips in the Midday peak hour, and 21 net fewer trips in the PM peak hour. The project will not be open during the AM peak hour.

Trip Distribution
Project distribution assumptions were developed based on existing travel patterns, and the likely origins and destinations of site employees and patrons. Trip distribution assumptions are shown on Attachment 3.

Study Scenarios
· Existing Conditions
· Existing Plus Project
· Opening Year 2023 (Existing + Ambient Growth + Cumulative Projects) · Opening Year 2023 Plus Project
Suggested Study Area
The following is a list of suggested study intersections to be included in the study, as shown on Attachment 3 (previously mentioned):

1. Palm Avenue at Ninth Street (signalized)
D1. Palm Avenue at Project Driveway 1 (unsignalized)
D2. Ninth Street at Project Driveway 2 (unsignalized)
Historic traffic counts conducted within the last two years shall be used. If historic counts are unavailable, new counts will be conducted.

Level of Service Methodology
Peak hour intersection operations at signalized and unsignalized intersections were evaluated using the methods prescribed in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 6th Edition, consistent with the requirements of the City of Imperial Beach. The City of Imperial Beach Level of Service standard for intersection operation is Level of Service D or better. If the project traffic causes operations at an intersection to go from acceptable to unacceptable, the project would have a significant effect at the intersection.

kimley-horn.com 1100 Town and Country Road, Suite 700, Orange, CA 92868 714 939 1030 Site Access and Circulation
Project site access and circulation for vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit connection will be evaluated. The evaluation will review the Project’s connection with nearby transit stops, bicycle infrastructure for both directions on all roads adjacent to the Project, and pedestrian facilities surrounding the Project.

VMT Approach
The project includes a 1,918 square-foot fast-food restaurant with drive-through. The projects listed in Table 7-1 of City of Imperial Beach’s Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020) are presumed to be considered VMT-reducing projects. The projects listed are either locally serving or are based on substantial evidence provided by the Office of Planning and Research (OPR) Technical Advisory Committee supporting SB 743 implementation.

The City of Imperial Beach Transportation Impact Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) and Level of Service Assessment (October 2020) provides guidance on VMT screening criteria for projects. The City guidelines specify that a project shall be screened out if it satisfies any of the following criteria:
· Transit Priority Area (TPA) Screening
· Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening
· Low VMT Area Screening
Transit Priority Area (TPA) Screening
Projects located within a TPA must be able to access the transit station within a ½ mile walking distance of 6-minute walk continuously without discontinuity of sidewalk or obstructions to the route. Qualifying transit stops means a site containing an existing rail transit station served by either bus or rail transit service, or the intersection of two or more major us routes with a frequency of service interval of 15 minutes or less during the morning and afternoon peak commute periods (OPR, 217). A high-quality transit corridor may also be considered if a corridor with fixed route bus service intervals no longer than 15 minutes during peak commute hours (OPR, 2017).

Based on the Transit Priority Area (TPA) map provided in Appendix B of the City’s guidelines, the project is located within a TPA, therefore, the TPA Screening threshold is met.

kimley-horn.com 1100 Town and Country Road, Suite 700, Orange, CA 92868 714 939 1030 Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening
Based on the Smart Growth Opportunity Area map provided in Appendix B of the City’s guidelines, the project is located within a Mixed-Use Transit Corridor of the Smart Growth Opportunity Area, therefore, the Smart Growth Opportunity Area Screening is met.

Low VMT Area Screening
A project can be identified as being located in a Low VMT Area if the project is located in an area with a regional mean of less than 85%. Review of the SANDAG VMT Screening Map indicates the project is located in an area with a regional mean of 86%, therefore, the Low VMT Area Screening is not met.

Generally, retail development including stores less than 50,000 square feet is considered local serving. The proposed project is less than 50,000 square feet and is not anticipated to lead to longer trips; thus, reducing VMT.

Based on the project being located in a Transit Priority Area, Smart Growth Opportunity Area, as well as being considered local serving retail, the project would be screened out of a VMT analysis. The City may presume such development creates a less than significant transportation impact; therefore, no further VMT analysis is required.

Drive-Through Queuing Analysis
A drive-through queuing analysis will be conducted for the proposed project, to evaluate the adequacy of the proposed drive-through lane queuing capacity. The opening to the drivethrough lane would be located at the northeast corner of the proposed building and would wrap along the north, west, and south sides of the building. The drive-through would provide two side-by-side entry lanes and two order boards, which would allow Raising Cane’s to take orders from two customers at the same time. After the order boards, the two lanes would merge back into a single drive-through lane prior to the pay and pick-up window. There will be approximately 100 feet of total queuing lane capacity (approximately 50 feet per lane) from the opening of the two drive-through lanes to the two order boards and approximately 100 feet from the order boards to the pick-up window. This would provide a total drivethrough queue length of approximately 200 feet, for a drive-through queuing capacity of 10 vehicles, assuming 20 feet per vehicle, from the beginning of the drive-through lanes to the pick-up window.

It should be noted that under peak drive-through conditions the project site would allow for an additional pay and pick-up lane, which would provide an additional queue length of 100 feet, or 5 vehicles. Overall, the project site provides a total queuing capacity of 300 feet, for a drive-through queuing capacity of 15 vehicles.
