5 Background
San Bruno Downtown Parking Study Final Parking Management Plan January 2019
Key Takeaways
• On-street parking on San Mateo Avenue (SMA) often at +100% • Lots are often well below capacity
• Weekend, midday parking occupancy is heaviest on SMA and nearby side streets • Very high demand for residential parking in surrounding areas • Vehicles on SMA often park beyond the 2-hour time limit, especially on weekends Key Recommendations
• Implementation of paid parking in the downtown area
• Push longer term parkers into the lots
• Increase parking turnover on SMA
• Consider overnight parking in lots for residents
6 Background
Enhancement of Citywide parking enforcement capabilities and establishing a metered parking program in the downtown area City Council Strategic Initiative Established
FY 2020-21
7 Background
High Level
• Approximately 835 spaces to become paid parking
• Includes on streets and in City lots
• In need of policies to authorize paid parking in specified locations and to establish a comprehensive set of paid parking policies for on-street parking and off-street parking in City lots
• New Municipal Code Ordinance (draft attached to Staff Report) • Potential amendment to City of San Bruno Municipal Code Title 7 (Vehicles and Traffic)
• New City Council Resolution (draft attached to Staff Report) • Adopts specific rate ranges and other regulations
• Authority under §32 and §22508 of the CA Vehicle Code 8 Background
Progress Toward Initiative
• Staff Report and Presentation to Council March 2022
• Staff Report and Presentation to Council November 2022 • City Council adoption of Resolution No. 2023-41 on April 11, 2023 • Created Parking Enterprise Fund
• City Council adoption of Resolution No. 2023-43 on April 11, 2023 • Authorized City Manager to execute a contract with T2 Systems in an amount not to exceed $1.3 million for services related to the purchase, installation, and operation of multi-use metered parking kiosks -
EXECUTED
• City Council adoption of Resolution No. 2023-42
• Authorized a contract partnership with LAZ Parking, not to exceed $2.75 million for citywide parking enforcement and metered parking management – EXECUTED
9 Background
Progress Toward Initiative
• City Council Study Session on September 26, 2023
• Staff requested that the City Council provide feedback and direction on three primary issues as follows:
1. Parking rate range for on and off-street parking spaces
2. Days and times for paid parking requirements and
enforcement
3. Local business impact considerations
10 Background
Progress Toward Initiative
Some of the critical feedback/direction from the 9/26 Study Session was:
• Consider removing the low-end of the rate range and instead base the range simply on a maximum
• Remove some spaces in front of City Hall on El Camino Real from the paid parking area
• Assess the financial viability of starting rates at the lower end of the range • Consider monthly parking permit options
• Assess how existing short term parking zones will be handled • Evaluate the appropriateness of exempting Sundays and/or certain holidays from paid parking requirements
• Evaluate the impacts of the proposed policy to provide two discounted (up to 100%) permits to local businesses and explore alternative models to reduce the impacts on local businesses
• Provide some modeling as to the fiscal outlook of the program based on the final recommendations that come back to Council
11 Background
Progress Toward Initiative
During the 9/26 Study Session, there was also significant public comment and Council concern regarding clarifying how funds generated by this program would be deposited and utilized by the City.
Prior Council action established a Parking Enterprise Fund where these revenues were to be deposited. Pursuant to the adopted Fund Balance Policy, this fund serves to account for costs to install and manage paid parking and contracted services for enhanced enforcement.
Staff will analyze the appropriate use of this fund and return to the City Council in a future meeting, as this is beyond the scope of the policy considerations covered in this effort.
12 Discussion
Metering Map
13 Discussion
Overview of Proposed Policies
The draft paid parking policies have been developed to accomplish the following purposes and objectives for on and off-street parking in specified locations:
• Establish parking meter areas, required methods of parking, parking controls, removal authority for unlawfully parked vehicles, parking space use restrictions, and other regulatory provisions related to the paid parking program • Establish the ability of the City Council to adopt a resolution establishing a range of meter rates, days and hours of paid parking enforcement, time limits, and methodology for periodic adjustment of parking meter rates for designated paid parking areas
• Formally establish the City Hall Employee Parking Lot as a public parking lot during non-business hours
14 Discussion
Overview of Proposed Policies
• Adjustable parking meter rates to optimize management of the use and occupancy of the parking spaces
• Target occupancy rate of eighty-five percent (85%) is recommended to be established in the resolution as the goal sought to be achieved with the rate structure for parking meters
• Occupancy rate refers to the percentage of public parking spaces that are occupied by vehicles in a given timeframe
• Goal is to balance the consistent use of the public parking supply with minimizing the time it takes for individual parkers to find parking • Parking rates are proposed to be set at an amount between the minimum and maximum rates to achieve the 85% target occupancy rate
• Staff will obtain utilization data from the T2 meter system and analyze actual parking space usage to set and periodically adjust rates in an effort to influence parking behavior
• This performance pricing model is used successfully in many jurisdictions • Rate adjusting by Chief of Police or their designee (within established limits) 15 Discussion

17 Discussion
The Chief of Police will initially establish actual parking rates as follows:
• On Street Spaces
o $1.50/hour
• Off Street Spaces
o $1 for 2 hours
o $2 for 5 hours
o $3 for 8 hours
o Provides a substantial discount for parking in off-street spaces to help to drive more parkers into the lots
o Batching the parking options in the lots to multiple hour segments enables the City to maintain the lowest possible hourly rate, while ensuring that individual transaction amounts are high enough to offset card processing fees o Business employees and longer-term parkers would now be paying as little as $.375 per hour if purchasing all-day parking (Note: there is also a monthly permitting option included in the proposed regulations, designed to further reduce the impacts on local businesses
Initial Rate Settings
18 Discussion
• Adjustable rates are critical to optimize management of the use and occupancy of the parking spaces
• Target occupancy rate of eighty-five percent (85%) is recommended to be established in the Resolution as the goal sought to be achieved with the rate structure for parking meters
• This target occupancy rate balances the consistent use of the public parking supply with minimizing the time it takes for individual parkers to find a parking space
• Rates will be set and adjusted to achieve the 85% target occupancy rate • Based upon parking occupancy data collected by the meter system • The Chief of Police or their designee will review occupancy data and adjust the hourly meter rates up or down in accordance with the ranges in the adopted Master Fee Schedule, to seek to achieve the target occupancy rate Initial Rate Settings
19 Discussion
• The Chief of Police will conduct regular meetings with downtown business stakeholders, taking this input into account in monitoring and adjusting parking rates
• Existing short-term parking zones (24-minute) will remain in effect and will allow parking within the time limits at no charge.
• Staff recommends exempting the following holidays from paid parking requirements (This provision has been added in Section 7 of the revised resolution):
• Thanksgiving Day
• December 25th (Christmas Day)
• January 1st (New Year’s Day)
• Section 6 of the resolution establishes the City Council’s authority to temporarily suspend paid parking requirements for celebrations, special public events, celebration of holiday seasons and any other such activity or purpose as the City Council in its sole discretion shall determine • Staff recommends that the paid parking be applicable seven days a week Other Details
20 Discussion
• To reduce the fiscal impacts on downtown business owners and employes, the policies establish a Discounted Rate Program for downtown businesses
• A maximum of two (2) vehicles per downtown business (per physical address) would be eligible for a free monthly parking permit
• Off-street parking lots only
• Limited to downtown business employees and owners
• Based on license plates and an application process via PD Provisions for Discounted Rates for Downtown Businesses 21 Discussion
• If a given business requires more than two (2) permits, business owners and/or employees may apply to purchase discounted monthly parking permits
• $30/month/license plate
• Discount of more than 50% off the 8-hour rate proposed • For use by business owners and/or employees only
• Allows parking only in off-street lots
• All permits will require an approved application through the San Bruno Police Department, as established by the authority of the Chief of Police or their designee
Provisions for Discounted Rates for Downtown Businesses 22 Fiscal Impacts
