redevelopment of the exis! ng City-owned Civic Arts Plaza (CAP) site serving as its nucleus and ac! ng as an economic catalyst for future private redevelopment along the boulevard. The site currently includes the exis! ng City Hall, two performing arts theatres – the Kavli Theatre and Scherr Forum, the suppor! ng public parking garage, and four standalone commercial buildings. The redevelopment of the site will consist of an array of new and exis! ng uses including:
• New mixed-use residen! al structures with ground fl oor commercial space,
• A bou! que hotel,
• A standalone restaurant,
• The adap! ve reuse and reconstruc! on of City Hall administra! ve offi ces to create ac! ve ground fl oor spaces and enhance access to the exis! ng Kavli Theatre and Scherr Forum performance venues which will remain,
• The crea! on of two new performing arts spaces including an outdoor amphitheatre and indoor mul! -purpose performance venue,
• A new public market/culinary business incubator,
• Offi ce space for a business incubator,
• An arts incubator space, and
• The crea! on of Carpenter Park, an ac! ve and usable park and plaza area for community gatherings
The project is an! cipated to be developed in fi ve phases and via a public- private partnership for por! ons of the project. The City’s inten! on to create a vibrant walkable pedestrian-oriented downtown environment is based on a strategy consis! ng of the consolida! on of parking and maximizing u! liza! on of parking resources through a shared parking approach typical and emblema! c of exis! ng successful downtown neighborhoods.
This report provides an analysis of the an! cipated parking supply and demand for the full build-out of the project, as well as at each interim phase, and provides recommended strategies and best prac! ces for the effi cient use and management of the parking supply to help achieve the City’s goals for the site.
PARKING SUPPLY
There are a total of 850 exis! ng parking spaces within the project boundary, and 750 off -street parking spaces available for general public and employee use. This number will decrease slightly during construc! on of Phase 1 and will ul! mately be increased to 1,086 parking spaces at the comple! on of the project.
PARKING DEMAND
Based on this analysis, while a typical parking demand scenario is expected to be amply accommodated with the proposed parking supply, demand is expected to exceed on-site supply when large performance events are in opera! on during evening hours. Because performance venues generate focused and defi ned parking demand peaks in lead up to and a& er events, understanding the venue opera! ons, including typical start and fi nish ! mes, a' endance pa' erns, frequency of overlapping shows, and other management elements, is an important factor in developing the parking demand assump! ons for the proposed project used in this study, as well as for future parking management opera! ons.
Based on discussions with City Cultural and Community Services Staff , it is assumed that instances when more than 1,800 seats will be fi lled simultaneously in a combina! on of exis! ng and proposed performance venue spaces will be infrequent, likely occurring fewer than 20-30 ! mes per year. Therefore, these instances are considered outliers to typical parking demand pa' erns, func! oning more similarly to temporary community events and fes! vals and are excluded for purposes of establishing a baseline parking demand model.
The baseline shared parking scenario assumes that up to 1,800 seats in a combina! on of venues (or one sold-out show in the Kavli Theatre) • WARY DESIII, IIC.

CUTIVE SUMMARY
will occur at a given ! me during peak evening hours on weekdays and week
ends. This provides a reasonable average to analyzing typical parking supply and demand pa" erns and to accommodate typical scenarios throughout the course of the year.
In addi! on, to ensure that there are implementable strategies to accommodate those infrequent instances when there are very large events or mul! ple overlapping performances that could occur simultaneously onsite, an analysis of various scenarios when more than 1,800 seats are fi lled is provided, including a hypothe! cal “worst case” scenario when each performance venue could host simultaneous sold- out events. This analysis off ers 1) an understanding the magnitude of poten! al parking shortages based on the various scenarios and 2) informs parking management recommenda! ons to ensure surplus parking demand can be met within the vicinity of the project site.
Below is a summary of the fi ndings of the analysis for the baseline parking demand scenario at each phase of the project:
• The exis! ng parking demand is primarily generated by the City Hall and performing arts theatres. Parking demands associated with the exis! ng uses mostly occur at diff erent ! mes of the day and days of the week, allowing the exis! ng parking to be shared eff ec! vely between the two user groups.
• During construc! on of Phase 1, the exis! ng City Hall and performance venues will con! nue opera! on. Therefore, parking demand will remain unchanged while supply is reduced slightly due to the elimina! on of the City Hall surface parking lot adjacent to Dallas Drive; however, the exis! ng garage has suffi cient parking to accommodate the demand.
• Phase 2A involves the comple! on of new mixed-use residen! al buildings with ground fl oor commercial uses and a 142-unit hotel which will increase parking demand, although demand is off set with increased supply due to the construc! on of the new podium and subterranean parking garages, new on street parking spaces located on new internal streets, and new angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Boulevard west of Dallas Drive. Only a small parking defi cit of approximately 10 stalls is expected when there is a weekend performance at the Kavli Theatre.
• Phase 2B introduces a new standalone restaurant, the crea! on of Carpenter Park, and new angled parking stalls along Thousand Oaks Boulevard east of Dallas Drive. Parking demand for the combina! on of uses upon comple! on of Phase 2B is expected to begin to approach the limits of on-site supply on weekends during the peak evening hours. A parking shortage of approximately 131 stalls is expected on weekends between the hours of 8:00-9:00 p.m. when a large performance(s) of 1,800 a" endees is occurring.
• Phase 2C introduces a number of new land uses, including a public market/culinary business incubator, new mul! purpose performance venue (MPV), addi! onal retail and private offi ce space intended as a business incubator space, a public library outpost, and crea! ve arts incubator. However, a larger mode adjustment is expected in this later phase as more varied land uses are added. Therefore, a reduced parking shortage of approximately 103 stalls is expected during a performance of 1,800 a" endees or less.
• At the conclusion of Phase 3, the development will provide an outdoor amphitheater and bandshell structure accommoda! ng outdoor community performances. The parking demand is
expected to exceed supply when 1,800 seats or more are fi lled for a performance, which only occurs when the Kavli Theatre and another venue have simultaneous show ! mes.
Mixed-use developments experience staggered peak periods, making this downtown project well-suited for a shared parking arrangement.
The analysis demonstrates that the planned parking supply will reliably meet demand for virtually all ! mes and days of the week for the typical • WARY DESIII, IIC.

use pa! erns, and that only in very specifi c and infrequent instances thr
oughout the year, when very large events (over 1,800 seats) may cause parking demand to approach or exceed the limits of supply. The shortage is expected to be brief and would be limited to between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. on weekdays and weekends. While the specifi c # me of the shortage may fl uctuate based on the start # mes of the performances, this analysis assumed a typical performance start # me of 8:00 p.m. based on conversa# ons with the City’s Cultural and Community Services Department staff .
The amount of the parking shortage will fl uctuate based on the total number of seats in a combina# on that are occupied simultaneously during the evening hours, when other on-site uses (par# cularly restaurants) are experiencing peak demand as well. Ma# nee performances are occasionally scheduled during the late a& ernoon hours, parking demand, even for mul# ple performances exceeding 1,800 seats is not expected to exceed supply at those # mes since the combined demand for other uses on the site is lower in the a& ernoon hours when offi ce users are typically leaving the site and before the peak evening restaurant rush.
RECOMMENDED PARKING STRATEGIES
To respond to the possibility of limited parking availability during isolated performance events, a variety of parking management and opera# ons strategies are recommended to be u# lized to address parking demand during large and concurrent shows and events.
1. Prior to the demoli# on of any parking spaces on site, the City should implement off ering rideshare discounts or vouchers to theatre patrons at the point of sale of # ckets for performances. This will incen# vize theatre patrons to use alterna# ve means of arriving to the site for performances, and can be expected to reduce theatre parking demand by approximately 10% during ini# al phases of the project.
As subsequent phases are completed and the site con# nues to evolve, parking behaviors are expected to change naturally; thus, this strategy is expected to further reduce theater patron parking demand, conserva# vely by up to 25% or more at full build-out of the project. These assump# ons have been built into the model and are represented in the percentage driving adjustments for entertainment visitors in Figure 6.
2. The City should off er off -site parking on City-owned lots (CVUSD lot and Transit Center lots) to accommodate excess demand when up to or over 1,800 patrons are expected to be on site at a given # me for scheduled performances. This is less likely to occur in early phases, but even in the exis# ng condi# on the possibility of simultaneous sold-out shows in both the Kavli and Scherr Forum would have the poten# al to exceed the exis# ng parking supply depending on individual driving behaviors.
The City should begin to off er this resource during such events as early as Phase 1 of the project to begin to introduce the op# on to patrons and develop opera# onal protocols for the use, including traffi c management logis# cs, staffi ng, security, and other logis# cal details, which will be necessary to direct patrons to the off -site parking lots. As the site evolves and becomes more intensifi ed, having patrons understand the op# on is available to them will help accelerate adop# on and u# liza# on of this resource to reduce parking demand on site and accommodate excess demand.
3. Prior to comple# on of the restaurant building included in Phase 2B, when the poten# al for instances of parking shortages is expected to increase as other peak demand-inducing uses are established and opera# ng, the City should create a parking district and associated parking management plan as proposed in the amended Specifi c Plan 11 and described in Appendix B. These tools will further defi ne and implement opera# onal parking demand management strategies to address peak parking demand during performances and events. The parking management plan should include, but is not limited to, the following measures:

CUTIVE SUMMARY
• Maintenance of a master schedule of events, including performances, public mee!
ngs, and others, in coordina! on with
City Cultural and Community Services Staff , to forecast instances of signifi cant parking demand spikes and avoid the poten! al for unforeseen overlapping events.
• Management and opera! on of off -site parking loca! ons at City- owned proper! es, including CVUSD and Transit Center lots to accommodate excess parking demand during large performances and events. The CVUSD lot is recommended to be used by venue staff , thereby freeing up spaces on site for patrons, while the transit lots are recommended to accommodate excess patron demand.
• Explora! on and arrangement of shared parking agreements with nearby private landowners who may be able to accommodate overfl ow parking at private parking lots during specifi c ! mes of peak performance venue demand. While the increased
capacity from private lots is not necessary to accommodate the an! cipated demand of even a “worst case” parking demand scenario when all four performances have sold out events, having available parking resources spread throughout the downtown area will introduce a broader spectrum of parking op! ons to meet people’s individual needs and reduce demand on any par! cular lot. Prior to recorda! on of any agreements, a parking study may be necessary to demonstrate that the demand for on-site uses on those private lots will con! nue to be accommodated.
• Opera! on of op! onal valet service for the standalone restaurant specifi cally for the public to increase the number of available spaces on site (up to 40 addi! onal spaces may be gained per parking level of the exis! ng garage with the u! liza! on of valet services).
• Crea! on and implementa! on of a framework for paid parking and associated parking enforcement measures. The framework should be based on the following recommended strategies:
◊ Encourage a “park once” environment by incen! vizing parking in public garages over surface parking;
◊ Encourage high turnover of all on-street surface spaces (on site surface spaces and angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Blvd.) through establishing and enforcing appropriate ! me limits and/ or paid parking rates;
◊ Restrict angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Blvd. during peak demand ! mes (for example: passenger loading only or 15 minute maximums between 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Thursday through Saturday) to func! onally increase rideshare pick-up drop off space availability.
◊ Establish discounted rate for off -site public parking op! ons during peak performances;
◊ Considera! on of technology improvements, such as License Plate Recogni! on (LPR) technology, in public parking garages to improve occupancy tracking and enhance real-! me parking signage on Thousand Oaks Boulevard for improved wayfi nding and informa! on related to public parking availability.
Other parking demand management strategies and best prac! ces which are incorporated into the proposed project plans include, but are not limited to the following:
• Provision of dedicated rideshare pickup/drop-off loca! ons in convenient loca! ons throughout the site. Based on the proposed project design, the 16 dedicated ride share spaces are expected to accommodate peak demand for rideshare pick up and drop off . In addi! on, reduced ! me limits or “passenger loading only” signs and enforcement for surface spaces along Thousand Oaks Boulevard during peak demand ! mes will func! onally increase the number of available rideshare drop-off loca! ons.
• Provision of short-term bicycle parking spaces throughout public areas of the site

CUTIVE SUMMARY
The forma! on of a parking district and implementa! on of a c
omprehensive parking management and enforcement plan will be integral to the effi cient use and long-term management of the parking supply. As the diff erent land uses are completed and feature a denser mixed-use development more aligned with a downtown neighborhood, parking demand pa$ erns and mobility behaviors are an! cipated to shi% , and the adop! on of alterna! ve modes (including rideshare, public transit, bicycling, and walking) is expected to increase over ! me for all users. The forma! on of a parking district will provide the organiza! onal infrastructure to most eff ec! vely plan, operate, and manage this type of shared parking program.
CONCLUSION
Parking demand is reliably met to accommodate the mix of proposed uses for virtually all ! mes and days of the week. Only in isolated and infrequent instances with large events in the Kavli Theatre, or mul! ple concurrent large events fi lling more than approximately 1,800 seats during the peak evening hours, will parking demand be expected to exceed on-site supply. Because demand is dependent on show ! mes, overlap of performance venues, and mobility behaviors of individuals, which are expected to change over ! me, the specifi c ! me frame and amount of the parking shortage may fl uctuate.
Even in the unlikely worst-case scenario when all four performance venues have sold-out simultaneous shows during peak evening hours, there is suffi cient capacity in off -site City-owned lots to accommodate the poten! al parking shortage. Once certain phases of the project are underway or completed, the City should create a parking district, which will create the organiza! onal infrastructure and a framework to plan, operate and maintain parking resources associated with the shared parking program.
As is typical of successful downtowns across the county, the City can accommodate parking demand through proper planning and organiza! on, opera! onal strategies through incen! ves and enforcement including paid parking and ! me restric! ons, u! liza! on of proximate surplus parking resources both public and private, clearly communica! ng with the public both in advance of major events and via dynamic and real-! me-updated parking signage and wayfi nding, and collabora! on among stakeholders on site and on adjacent proper! es.

This report provides a c omprehensive analysis of the exis! ng and future parking needs for the Downtown Thousand Oaks Project, with a focus on parking supply, demand modeling, and the management strategies required to accommodate
the needs of residents, visitors, employees, and local
businesses. The analysis takes into considera! on a variety of parking asset types, including on-street surface spaces and parking garages, examining their availability and ! me limita! ons. Furthermore, it inves! gates how the phased implementa! on and evolu! on of the project may impact parking needs over ! me.
The City’s goal for the project is to create the nucleus of a vibrant and walkable downtown environment. The City
expects this project will help catalyze redevelopment and reinvestment along the East Thousand Oaks Boulevard into a more pedestrian friendly downtown district centered around the project site as envisioned in the goals and policies of the City’s General Plan 2045. The project’s parking strategy is based on a shared parking approach to most effi ciently u! lize the exis! ng parking garage, as well as consolida! ng new parking into podium and subterranean parking garages to create a “park-once” environment with ac! ve and walkable streetscapes with parking screened from public pedestrian areas. Because mixed-use developments experience
staggered peak periods, shared parking within a downtown area is highly effi cient, making this project well-suited for such an arrangement.
The proposed project involves the comprehensive
redevelopment of the exis! ng site with new mixed-use
residen! al structures, a new hotel, the par! al demoli! on, adap! ve reuse, and reconstruc! on of City Hall administra! ve offi ces with a variety of other community and community serving ground fl oor uses, the revamping of an exis! ng passive open space into a more ac! ve public plaza and Figure 1: Proposed Land Use

The available parking supply is slightly lower due to some parking spaces that are not available for the general public. The eff ec! ve parking supply excludes 29 spaces located at the Kavli Theatre loading area and 16 spaces that serve the exis! ng building at 1868 Thousand Oaks Blvd. since those cannot be used by the general public. However, the Kavli Theatre loading spaces can be used to meet part of the Kavli Theatre employee's parking demand, when available. Addi! onally, there are 46 fl eet spaces and 9 permanently reserved spaces in the exis! ng parking structure that are not available for public use (although the number of fl eet vehicles is expected to decrease in the future).

SHARED P
ARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS
Shared parking ref ers to a parking strategy where mul! ple land uses or property owners share the same parking spaces to serve a mix of uses, rather than each having their own dedicated spaces. It is designed to maximize parking effi ciency by u! lizing parking resources more eff ec! vely by allowing diff erent users to park in the same spaces at diff erent ! mes.
The following are key elements of the Downtown Core shared parking strategy:
1. Time-based sharing: Many commercial and visitor-serving land uses will have different peak demand periods during the day or during different days of the week. Having a mix of user groups with varying peak parking demands allows the same parking spaces to serve mul! ple purposes.
2. Mul! -use sharing (“Park-Once Strategy”): Visitors will o$ en stop at mul! ple des! na! ons in a downtown environment during their visit.
The shared parking arrangement will provide convenient parking for visitors because it allows them to park one ! me and walk to mul! ple des! na! ons within the project area instead of parking at each loca! on they wish to visit.
3. Hotel Valet: The hotel will off er valet parking for guests staying overnight, and the top level of the parking structure will be leased to the hotel parking operator to use for storage of the guests’ vehicles. This will allow parking in the garage to be densified and will maximize general public parking in the remainder of the garage.
Overnight guests who do not wish to use valet parking op! on with the hotel would be able to park in the public parking garage and will be charged an overnight parking fee, which should be priced to incen! vize the use of the valet opera! on.
4. Unbundled Residen! al Parking: In the residen! al parking structures, residen! al tenants will be provided an op! on to lease an assigned parking space in addi! on to their rent. Parking is typically off ered on a first come first served basis and limited to a maximum number per unit type (one space for studio and one-bedroom units, and no more than two spaces for two-bedroom and larger unit types).
Unbundled residen! al parking will need to comply with AB 1317:
“Unbundled parking,” and not be included in the cost of the unit rental price. Although unbundled parking is expected to result in reduced residen! al parking demand, thereby freeing up addi! onal spaces for public parking, for purposes of this model, the maximum number of residen! al parking spaces that could be required based on the proposed unit mix has been “reserved,” or fi xed, instead of using projected residen! al demand es! mates, to provide a more conserva! ve analysis.
5. Parking Management and Enforcement: When a sold-out show at the Kavli Theatre or mul! ple performances are occurring simultaneously, totaling over 1,800 a& endees in combina! on, parking demand is expected to exceed the on-site parking supply.
During these instances, the City will implement parking demand management strategies to appropriately manage the increased demand. These parking demand management strategies include, but are not limited to, 1) the off ering of rideshare vouchers at the point of sale for ! cketed events, 2) to the use of off -site City-owned parking lots to accommodate surplus demand during ! mes of peak performance venue demand, 3) the opera! on of a valet service available to restaurant patrons and/or the general public during ! mes of peak performance venue demand, 4) establishing a parking district to develop and implement a framework for paid parking and enforcement.
6. Promo! on of mul! -modal transporta! on: The crea! on of convenient and safe mul! -modal transporta! on within the Downtown Core area, including dedicated pickup and drop off loca! ons for rideshare and public and private transit services, crea! ng pedestrian connec! ons to and through the site and to adjacent proper! es, and providing bicycle and e-bike parking and infrastructure will facilitate the use of other modes of transporta! on and thereby reduce demand. This is especially true as the project is constructed and evolves over ! me.

ARKING DEMAND ANALYSIS
As stated above, the City should pursue the crea! on of a parking district t
o develop and implement a framework for paid parking, ongoing management of the parking assets onsite as well as the off -site lots that will serve as overfl ow parking during ! mes of peak parking demand.
The shared parking approach will ensure the most effi cient use and eff ec! ve long-term management of available parking supply to achieve a “park once” environment and facilitate the expanded use of alterna! ve modes of transporta! on, including ride share, public transit, and bicycling.
As the project matures, it is expected that the use of alterna! ve modes of transporta! on will become more frequently u! lized and available, thereby con! nuing to reduce vehicular parking demand as mobility behaviors adjust to a more dense and vibrant downtown environment.
BASE PARKING RATIOS
The parking demand, land use assump! ons, and model data used in this report are prepared in conformance with Shared Parking, Third Edi! on (Shared Parking). Shared Parking is a publica! on prepared in collabora! on by various parking industry associa! ons, including Na! onal Parking Associa! on – Parking Consultants Council (NPA’s PCC ), Urban Land Ins! tute (ULI), and Interna! onal Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). In addi! on, the Ins! tute of Transporta! on Engineers (ITE) is also a contributor to coordina! ng parking ra! os between Shared Parking and the ITE’s Parking Genera! on Manual (PGM).
The latest edi! on of Shared Parking includes 44 land use categories with base ra! os for parking demand. These ra! os are based on a suburban loca! on with li% le to no transit. While the recommended parking ra! os included in the Shared Parking manual are intended to provide suffi cient parking for those land uses, adjustments to these ra! os must be made to refl ect local condi! ons, specifi c types of uses not captured or representa! ve of the Shared Parking land use categories, and based on an! cipated and/or intended changes in mobility pa% erns resul! ng from the project’s development and the implementa! on of associated parking demand management strategies.
The following adjustments have been applied to the model to modify the es! mated peak hour demand ra! os based on the combina! on of land uses and their specifi c ! me of day demand. Ra! onale and jus! fi ca! on for the adjustments are described below and are highlighted in Figure 7.
DRIVING ADJUSTMENTS
Driving Adjustments are used to adjust the base parking ra! os for local characteris! cs and behavior. The base ra! o assumes nearly all users are arriving by private automobile. This ra! o is then adjusted to refl ect users taking transit, walking, carpooling, or ride shares. It is expected that EXISTING PHASE 1 PHASE 2A PHASE 2B PHASE 2C PHASE 3

propor! on of users es! mated to access the site via priv ate vehicles.
NON-CAPTIVE RATIO
In a mixed-use project, there is a reduc! on in parking demand due to patrons visi! ng mul! ple land-uses in a single visit. In order for a patron to be considered a cap! ve user, they must be counted as a parker of a diff erent land use at the same ! me they patronize a second use. For example, an employee that patrons a cafe or restaurant during their shi# would be counted as an employee, and would not require a separate parking space to visit another use during their break. However, if they visit a restaurant a# er their shi# , their use of the parking is sequen! al and therefore, they are considered a non-cap! ve user, even if they don't physically move their vehicle.
The shared parking model takes into account the various overlaps based on typical use pa$ erns between the various land uses in the project. No special adjustments to the standard cap! ve adjustments have been made for this project. A 100% non-cap! ve ra! o indicates everyone visi! ng that land use is not counted as a primary user of another use. The residen! al parker would be one of those user groups.
SHARED PARKING LAND USES
The following is a descrip! on of the land use categories in Shared Parking, Third Edi! on, which most closely apply to the proposed uses in the proposed project. Most of the base parking ra! os have been maintained in the parking analysis with a few excep! ons. The various categories and modifi ca! ons, if any, to the base ra! o are described below.
Retail: Retail in the shared parking model is categorized and scaled by size. It includes general shops that typically sell dry goods. The base ra! o is 4/1,000 square feet, or one space per 250 square feet. Retail uses generally generate peaks during the midmorning and mid-a# ernoon hours.
Fine/Casual Dining: This category includes full-service sit-down restaurants from upscale establishments that are less likely to be chain restaurants to moderately priced casual dining restaurants, including chain restaurants. They o# en include a bar or lounge area in addi! on to a dining room. The base ra! o is 17.75 spaces per 1,000 square feet on weekends. This category of restaurants exhibits the highest parking demand and generally generates peaks in the evening during the mid to late evening hours. This ! me also coincides with the highest demand for theatres. This use category has been applied to the stand-alone restaurant (Bldg. B1) and the restaurant space assumed in Bldg. E2.
Fast Casual/Fast Food: These restaurants are characterized by establishments where food is typically ordered at a counter or carried out. In addi! on to major fast food chains, this land use includes cafes, coff ee shops, ice cream shops, and other types of quick-service food establishments. The public market and the restaurant space assumed in Bldg. E3 are included in this category. These restaurants generally generate peaks during the midday and early evening hours.
Performing Arts Theaters: Provides a venue for live performances, musicals, concerts, and comedy shows. Most are mul! -use venues and may house diff erent shows seasonally throughout the year. They may also be used for local events such as gradua! ons and lectures. The ra! o is 0.33 spaces per seat, or one space per 3 seats. The employee parking ra! o for this land use has been reduced to align with the actual employee counts based on actual staffi ng. Times of peak demand depend heavily on when performance events are scheduled. Based on discussions with City staff , typical show! mes occur in the mid-a# ernoon (2-4pm) and evening (8- 10pm) hours.
Hotels: There are two categories of hotels in the shared parking model:
business hotel and leisure hotel. Leisure hotels are likely des! na! on hotels with more restaurants and guest ameni! es than business hotels.
The base parking demand is iden! cal for both categories of hotel.
However, the parking occupancy assump! ons for a leisure hotel is slightly higher, assuming they are more likely to stay on premise throughout the • WARY DESIII, IIC.

ARKING ANALYSIS
day. The hotel at this loca! on could appeal to both leisur e and business users, but it has been categorized as a leisure hotel for this analysis since it has a slightly higher parking occupancy rate, providing a more conserva! ve approach.
Residen! al: There are two categories of residen! al users with slightly diff erent parking pa# erns in the shared parking model. Suburban residents are more likely to commute to work using their vehicles and have a lower day! me occupancy than urban residents. Urban residents are more likely to leave their car at home and commute to work using alternate modes of transporta! on. It is assumed the residents at this project follow a more tradi! onal suburban vehicle use for commu! ng.
Parking ra! os have been modifi ed for this land use to align with AB 2345 and the State Density Bonus law. This includes 1 space per studio or 1 bedroom units and 1.5 spaces for 2 or 3 bedroom units. Guest parking is not otherwise included and would be provided with the general public parking in the overall development. Actual demand is expected to be lesser than the above ra! os based on the proposed unit mix and unbundling of parking from the rental cost of the unit, and could therefore be increase the amount of spaces available for shared use.
However, for purposes of the model, residen! al parking is assumed to be 100% reserved to provide a more conserva! ve analysis.
Offi ce: Offi ce parking demand in the shared parking model is scaled inversely based on size. Larger offi ce complexes typically have more amenity space and therefore a lower parking demand on a square foot basis. The City Hall in this project is assumed to func! on similar to a tradi! onal offi ce and is categorized based on its total area.
Outdoor Amphitheatre: These include day! me and evening concert venues. The assumed ra! o is the same as live theatres at 0.33 spaces per seat; however, the peak demand is assumed to be generated in the earlier evening hours. Actual demand will be based on the scheduled ! me of performances. The employee parking ra! o for this land use has been reduced to align with the actual employee counts based on staffi ng of the exis! ng theaters.
Public park/des! na! on open space: The shared parking model includes a category for public parks and open space, which would most closely resemble the proposed Carpenter Park featured in this project. However, the demand in the model is 5.5 spaces per acre (weekends) and refl ects the use of a larger park or open space area. The demand for Carpenter Park has been increased to approximately 1 space per 1,000 square feet to refl ect events such as Farmer’s Markets that are expected to occur in this space. This use category would generally generate its own peak parking demand during the day! me on weekends, and actual demand will depend on the scheduled ! me of any recurring events.
THEATRE PICK-UP DROP-OFF (PUDO)
It is an! cipated that a propor! on of the theater patrons will u! lize ride share or get dropped off and picked up for performances. The mode share of private vehicle use is expected to decrease over ! me as shown in Figure 7. Based on these projec! ons, there will be a signifi cant demand for drop-off and pick-up spaces, which will take place at the on-street parking spaces within the new development and on Thousand Oaks Boulevard.
Base theater parking demand is 0.33 per seat at a 100% driving ra! o.
Based on the es! mated driving adjustments for entertainment users in Figure 6, up to 25% of these patrons will arrive and depart via ride share (Uber, Ly* , Taxi) at the end of Phase 2C, and each patron requires a full 5 minutes to be picked-up, the demand for loading spaces will be as follows:
Kavli Theater: 149 rideshare cars @ 2 mins each = 10 spaces for pick up Scherr Forum: 33 cars @ 2 mins each = 3 spaces for pick up Mul! purpose: 17 cars @ 2 mins each = 2 spaces for pick up Amphitheatre: 29 cars @ 2 mins each = 2 spaces for pick up These space requirements for each venue is based on the following assump! ons:
• WARY DESIII, IIC.

ARKING ANALYSIS
1. Pick-ups will be completed within 2 minutes on average of the vehicles arrival. This is the typic
al wait period for an Uber and Ly! before late fees
will be charged or the driver will leave. Drop-off s typically happen within a few seconds and will not be the driving factor.
2. Patrons will depart in a dispersed pa# ern within a 30 minute period a! er the end of the performance. While some visitors may chose to leave immediately, others may linger at the venue or meet with performers.
Addi$ onally, there is a limited number of available rideshare drivers in the vicinity and it will take some drivers longer to arrive if too many riders request rides simultaneously.
Therefore, the 16 dedicated rideshare vehicle pick up/drop off spaces proposed are expected to be suffi cient to accommodate the quan$ ty of rideshare expected during performances. Even when all 4 venues have simultaneous performances, 17 spaces are expected to be needed.
However, thats assuming all shows would start or end at the same $ me which is unlikely.

The e
xis! ng site consists of the City Hall and two theatres (Kavli and Scherr). The thea
tres and City Hall have diff erent peak demand periods, therefore they are ideal for complimentary shared parking land uses.
The peak demand occurs during evenings and weekends during typical performance ! mes, while the City Hall requires parking during tradi! onal business hours, with the excep! on of Council or Commi# ee mee! ngs which occur during weekday evenings. There is one small professional offi ce/medical offi ce building within the project boundary that will remain.
The peak weekday and weekend parking demand occurs at 8:00 p.m. and driven by the theatre when performances are scheduled. For the typical parking demand scenario, a total of 1,800 seats is assumed (a sold out show in the Kavli or in a combina! on of the two theatres). The peak parking demand in the exis! ng condi! on requires 636 spaces.
There are 794 available parking spaces, therefore, exis! ng parking supply accommodates the typical exis! ng parking demand.

Phase 1 includes new roads, u! li! es, grading, infrastructure and the con
! nued opera! on of the Kavli Theatre, Scherr Forum, and City Hall administra! ve offi ces. Therefore, the parking demand that will occur during this interim phase is equivalent to the exis! ng condi! on of 636 spaces with a performance at the Kavli Theatre.
There will be slightly less parking during this phase with approximately 719 parking spaces. Therefore, parking supply at during Phase 1 is suffi cient to accommodate the an! cipated demand.
To begin encouraging shi# s in mobility behaviors for patrons of the performance venues, it is recommended that the City begin off ering rideshare vouchers or discounts at the point of sale for ! ckets for performance events. This will have the eff ect of further reducing performance venue parking demand by an es! mated 10% during ini! al phases, and up to 25% or more in later phases when the poten! al for parking demand to exceed supply increases.

PHASE 2B PROGRAM
• Encourage a “park once” environment by incen! vizing parking in public g
arages over surface parking.
• Encourage high turnover of all on-street surface
spaces (on-site surface spaces and angled stalls
along Thousand Oaks Blvd) through establishing and
enforcing appropriate ! me limits and/or paid parking
rates.
• Restrict angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Boulevard
during peak demand ! mes (for example: passenger
loading only or 15-minute maximum between 7:30
and 9:30 p.m. Thursday - Saturday) to func! onally
increase rideshare pick-up drop-off space availability. • Maintain a coordinated master schedule of events
with City Cultural and Community Services Staff ,
including performances, public mee! ngs, and
other events, to forecast instances of signifi cant
parking demand spikes and avoid the poten! al for
unforeseen overlapping events.
• Management and opera! on of off -site parking
loca! ons at City-owned proper! es, including CVUSD
and Transit Center lots, to accommodate excess
parking demand during large performances and
events. The CVUSD lot is recommended to be used

f
or venue staff , thereby freeing up spaces on site for pa trons, while the transit lots are recommended to accommodate excess patron demand.
• Establish a discounted rate for off -site parking op" ons during peak performances.
• Consider opera" ng an op" onal valet service for the general public during " mes of peak performance events. Storage of valet vehicles could occur in the exis" ng parking garage (approximately 40 addi" onal vehicles can be stored on each level with the opera" on of a valet), or on nearby private or publicly owned parking lots. • Explora" on and arrangement of shared parking agreements with nearby private landowners who may be able to accommodate overfl ow parking at private parking lots during specifi c " mes of peak performance venue demand. While the increased capacity from private lots is not necessary to accommodate the an" cipated demand of even a “worst case” parking demand scenario when all four performances have sold out events, having available parking resources spread throughout the downtown area will introduce a broader spectrum of parking op" ons to meet people’s individual needs and reduce demand on any par" cular lot. Prior to the recorda" on of any agreements, a parking study may be necessary to demonstrate that the demand for on-site uses on those private lots will con" nue to be accommodated.
• Considera" on of technology improvements, such as License Plate Recogni" on (LPR) technology in public parking garages to improve occupancy tracking and enhance real-" me parking signage on Thousand Oaks Boulevard for improved wayfi nding and informa" on related to public parking availability.
When there are no theater performances, the peak parking demand occurs on a weekday at 12 p.m. and is expected to have a parking surplus of around 210 spaces, as illustrated in Figure 20.

PHASE 3
Phase 3 will include the outdoor amphitheatre and
Bandshell, building B2.
The parking demand in this fi
nal phase will be iden" cal
to Phase 2C except during amphitheatre performances.
While the base scenario is not altered from the other
phases, the shared parking data provided in Appendix
A shows the parking demand with the amphitheatre
performance included, since that is the only diff erence from Phase 2C. The parking demand during this
phase in the base scenario is iden" al to Phase 2C with 1,189 stalls, but will increase to 1,247 stalls with a
performance at the Kavli Theatre and amphitehatre
combined.
There will be 1,086 parking spaces in the fi nal build-out.
Therefore, the parking demand is expected to exceed
supply by approximately 103 stalls. The u" liza" on of off -site City-owned parking lots (CVUSD – 27 spaces and Transporta" on Center lots A and B – 273 spaces) will be suffi cient to accommodate the worst case scenario when all four venues have simultaneous performances.

TEMPORARY PEAK PARKING DEMAND
Based on the supply and demand analysis in the pre
vious sec! on, there
are expected to be infrequent instances when the parking demand exceeds the on-site parking supply which depends on the scheduled show ! mes and number of seats fi lled concurrently in the combina! on of venues. Figure 20 summarizes the total parking demand and surplus/ defi cit for various scenarios of performance venue occupancy across all phases of the project, including a hypothe! cal “worst case” scenario when all four venues are hos! ng sold-out performances. Assump! ons for all other applicable land uses are held consistent with the baseline parking demand scenarios for each phase.
At full build out of the project, when there are no performances scheduled, the site is expected to maintain healthy surpluses of parking ranging from approximately 138 spaces on weekdays to over 300 spaces on weekends. In the worst-case scenario, when all four performances are hos! ng sold-out shows, the site is expected to experience a parking defi cit ranging from 240 stalls on weekdays to 302 stalls on weekends.
Therefore, the 300 off -site spaces are suffi cient to accommodate all expected temporary peak parking scenarios. Implementa! on of addi! onal recommenda! ons discussed herein, including opera! ng an op! onal valet service for the general public, the poten! al to increase parking capacity via shared parking agreements with private landowners, and other parking demand management strategies, will increase parking op! ons and further reduce demand during peak ! mes.

RE
COMMENDED PARKING STRATEGIES
Based on the supply and demand analysis in the previous sec! on, there will be ! mes when the parking demand exceeds the on-site parking supply. This occurs when there is a sold-out performance at the Kavli Theatre or mul! ple theatres have concurrent performances. Where there are parking shortages during performance events, the following strategies can provide short-term solu! ons to the parking shortage. To respond to the possibility of limited parking availability during isolated performance events, a variety of parking management and opera! ons strategies are recommended to be u! lized to address parking demand during large and concurrent shows and events.
1. Prior to the demoli! on of any parking spaces on site, the City should implement off ering rideshare discounts or vouchers to theatre patrons at the point of sale of ! ckets for performances. This will incen! vize theatre patrons to use alterna! ve means of arriving to the site for performances, and can be expected to reduce theater parking demand by approximately 10% during ini! al phases of the project.
As subsequent phases are completed and the site con! nues to evolve, parking behaviors are expected to change naturally; thus, this strategy is expected to further reduce theater patron parking demand, conserva! vely by up to 25% or more at full build-out of the project. These assump! ons have been built into the model and are represented in the percentage driving adjustments for entertainment visitors in Figure 6.
2. The City should off er off site parking on City-owned lots (CVUSD lot and Transit Center lots) to accommodate excess demand when up to or over 1,800 patrons are expected to be on site at a given ! me for scheduled performances. This is less likely to occur in early phases, but even in the exis! ng condi! on the possibility of simultaneous sold-out shows in both the Kavli and Scherr Forum would be expected to exceed the exis! ng parking supply.
The City should begin to off er this resource during such events as early as Phase 1 of the project to begin to introduce the op! on to patrons and develop opera! onal protocols for the use, including traffi c management logis! cs, staffi ng, security, and other logis! cal details, which will be necessary to direct patrons to the off -site parking lots. As the site evolves and becomes more intensifi ed, having patrons understand the op! on is available to them will help accelerate adop! on and u! liza! on of this resource to reduce parking demand on site and accommodate excess demand.
Lot A & B: Thousand Oaks Transporta! on Center (265 S Rancho Road)
The Transporta! on Center has two parking lots with approximately 162 and 111 parking spaces, for a total of 273 spaces. This is the furthest lot and located approximately 1 mile (5 minute drive) from the Civic Arts Plaza.
Lot C: CVUSD Preschool (110 S Conejo School Road)
The childcare center is also within walking distance, approximately
0.25 miles from the Kavli Theater loading dock and provides approximately 27 parking spaces that can be made available to employees during nights and weekends.
3. Prior to comple! on of the restaurant building included in Phase 2B, when the poten! al for instances of parking shortages is expected to increase as other peak demand-inducing uses are established and opera! ng, the City should create a parking district and associated parking management plan as proposed in the amended Specifi c Plan 11 and described in Appendix B. These tools will further defi ne and implement opera! onal parking demand management strategies to address peak parking demand during performances and events. The parking management plan should include, but is not limited to, the following measures:
• Maintenance of a master schedule of events, including performances, public mee! ngs, and others, in coordina! on with City Cultural and Community Services Staff , to forecast instances • WARY DESIII, IIC.

of signifi cant parking demand spikes and avoid the poten" al for un
foreseen overlapping events.
• Management and opera" on of off -site parking loca" ons at City- owned proper" es, including CVUSD and Transit Center lots to accommodate excess parking demand during large performances and events. The CVUSD lot is recommended to be used by venue staff , thereby freeing up spaces on site for patrons, while the transit lots are recommended to accommodate excess patron demand.
• Explora" on and arrangement of shared parking agreements with nearby private landowners who may be able to accommodate overfl ow parking at private parking lots during specifi c " mes of peak performance venue demand. While the increased capacity from private lots is not necessary to accommodate the an" cipated demand of even a “worst case” parking demand scenario when all four performances have sold out events, having available parking resources spread throughout the downtown area will introduce a broader spectrum of parking op" ons to meet people’s individual needs and reduce demand on any par" cular lot. Prior to recorda" on of any agreements, a parking study may be necessary to demonstrate that the demand for on-site uses on those private lots will con" nue to be accommodated.
• Opera" on of op" onal valet service for the standalone restaurant specifi cally and/or for the public in general to increase the number of available spaces on site (up to 40 addi" onal spaces may be gained per parking level of the exis" ng garage with the u" liza" on of valet services).
• Crea" on and implementa" on of a framework for paid parking and associated parking enforcement measures. The framework should be based on the following recommended strategies:
◊ Encourage a “park once” environment by incen" vizing parking in public garages over surface parking;
◊ Encourage high turnover of all on-street surface spaces (on site surface spaces and angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Blvd) through establishing and enforcing appropriate " me limits and/ or paid parking rates;
◊ Restrict angled stalls along Thousand Oaks Boulevard during peak demand " mes (for example: passenger loading only or 15 minute maximums between 7:30 - 9:30 p.m. Thursday through Saturday) to func" onally increase rideshare pick-up drop off space availability.
◊ Establish discounted rate for off -site public parking op" ons during peak performances;
◊ Considera" on of technology improvements, such as License Plate Recogni" on (LPR) technology, in public parking garages to improve occupancy tracking and enhance real-" me parking signage on Thousand Oaks Boulevard for improved wayfi nding and informa" on related to public parking availability.
Other parking demand management strategies and best prac" ces which are incorporated into the proposed project plans include, but are not limited to the following:
• Provision of dedicated rideshare pickup/drop-off loca" ons in convenient loca" ons throughout the site. Based on the proposed project design, the 16 dedicated ride share spaces are expected to accommodate peak demand for rideshare pick up and drop off . In addi" on, reduced " me limits or “passenger loading only” signs and enforcement for surface spaces along Thousand Oaks Boulevard during peak demand " mes will func" onally increase the number of available rideshare drop-off loca" ons.
• Provision of short-term bicycle parking spaces throughout public areas of the site

integral to the effi cient use and long-term management of the parking supply
. As the diff erent land uses are completed and feature a denser mixed-use development more aligned with a downtown neighborhood, parking demand pa# erns and mobility behaviors are an$ cipated to shi% , and the adop$ on of alterna$ ve modes (including rideshare, public transit, bicycling, and walking) is expected to increase over $ me for all users.

P
ARKING DISTRICT FRAMEWORK
A parking district is a designated area—usually within a city or municipality—where specifi
c parking rules, restric" ons, or programs
apply. These districts are typically created to manage limited parking resources, improve traffi c fl ow, and ensure that residents, businesses, or other priority groups have be% er access to parking.
Common features of a parking district:
• Permit-only parking: Residents or businesses may need to apply for a permit to park in the area.
• Time restric! ons: Limits on how long you can park (e.g., 2-hour max parking between certain hours).
• Metered parking: Requires payment during certain " mes of the day. • Event or seasonal rules: Restric" ons may change during events or in certain seasons (e.g., snow emergencies).
Types of parking districts:
• Residen! al Parking Districts (RPDs): Priori" ze local residents and o& en limit non-resident or commuter parking.
• Commercial Parking Districts: Located near shopping or business areas to encourage turnover and support local commerce. • Special Event Parking Districts: Enforced during sports games, concerts, or fes" vals.
Establishing a parking district typically involves a series of steps that require collabora" on with local government authori" es, stakeholders, and the community. Here’s a general process to establish a parking district:
1. Assess the Need and Defi ne the District Boundaries
• Iden" fy the problem: Gather data on parking demand, availability, and issues in the area. Common issues may include overcrowding, illegal parking, or inadequate parking for residents and businesses. • Defi ne the boundaries: Determine the area where the parking district will be implemented. It could be based on a specifi c neighborhood, commercial area, or other defi ned regions.
2. Engage Stakeholders
• Consult with local businesses, residents, and community groups:
Conduct surveys or hold mee" ngs to understand the concerns and needs of those impacted by the parking problem.
• Involve local authori" es: Work with the city or county government, public works department, and parking authori" es to ensure the legal and logis" cal feasibility of crea" ng the district.
• Host community mee" ngs: Off er opportuni" es for the community to ask ques" ons or voice concerns.
3. Conduct a Feasibility Study
• Analyze current parking infrastructure: Assess the current parking supply, demand, pricing, enforcement, and overall system effi ciency. • Evaluate poten" al solu" ons: Consider diff erent parking management strategies, like permit systems, " me-limited parking, or meters, based on the area’s needs.
4. Develop a Parking Management Plan
• Determine the specifi c regula" ons and pricing: Based on the feasibility study, decide on regula" ons, like permit requirements, paid parking zones, or " me limits.
• Designate parking enforcement: Establish clear guidelines on how parking rules will be enforced and who will be responsible for enforcement (e.g., city personnel or private contractors). • Address special needs: Make provisions for special parking needs, like accommoda" ons for residents, people with disabili" es, or delivery trucks.
5. Create a Funding Mechanism
• Iden" fy funding sources: Determine how the district will be funded.
Possible sources include permit fees, parking meter fees, grants, or even public-private partnerships.
• Calculate costs: Ensure you have a cost structure for signage, enforcement, and maintenance.
• WARY DESIII, IIC.
59 February 2026 |
6. Dr
a Legisla on and Ordinances
• Pr
epare legal documents: Work with local government offi cials and legal experts to dra" ordinances or regula# ons that will offi cially create the parking district. This could include:
◊ Defi ning the district boundaries.
◊ Establishing the rules, fees, and enforcement mechanisms. • Get approval from local government: Present the proposal to city or county council, Planning Commission, or other relevant authori# es for approval.
7. Public Engagement and Educa on
• Inform the public: A" er approval, inform residents, businesses, and the general public about the changes, the purpose of the parking district, and any new regula# ons.
8. Implement the Parking District
• Install signage and infrastructure: Set up parking meters, permit systems, and other infrastructure to enforce the parking rules. • Launch the enforcement process: Begin # cke# ng, towing, or other enforcement ac# ons as necessary.
9. Monitor and Evaluate
• Track the system’s eff ec# veness: A" er implementa# on, gather data on parking u# liza# on, enforcement success, and community feedback.
• Adjust the plan as necessary: Make modifi ca# ons to the parking district based on the feedback and data, such as changing permit fees or altering enforcement hours.
10. Ongoing Maintenance and Adjustment
• Con# nue enforcement: Ensure that parking enforcement remains consistent and adjust policies as needed based on evolving community needs.
• Evaluate long-term sustainability: Periodically assess the success of the parking district and adjust regula# ons or fees as necessary.
Crea# ng a parking district can help alleviate conges# on and improve the overall parking experience in a specifi c area. However, it requires careful planning, community engagement, and ongoing monitoring to ensure it benefi ts everyone involved.
How the Money Gets Used:
• Signage & striping
• Enforcement staff or contractors
• Permit system administra# on
• Street maintenance or beau# fi ca# on
• Public ameni# es (in some districts, excess revenue goes back into sidewalks, ligh# ng, or bike racks)
• New district parking facili# es

ARKING MANAGEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT
INTRODUCTION
An exis!
ng condi! ons and parking needs assessment was conducted to evaluate the City’s current and an! cipated parking challenges through one in-person assessment and a series of virtual mee! ngs with various City staff . The in-person assessment included a site visit and staff interviews. Based on the assessment, one of the main challenges iden! fi ed was the parking demand and conges! on on theater event nights. Opportuni! es were iden! fi ed to leverage exis! ng under u! lized parking assets in the City through shared parking agreements in order to increase parking supply, and to establish satellite off -street parking loca! ons dedicated to employee parking, paired with a shu$ ling program.
There are opportuni! es for the City to upgrade the technology systems in the City Hall/theater parking garage, such as installing license plate recogni! on (LPR) technology for more accurate occupancy counts, dynamic real-! me parking signage along Thousand Oaks Blvd., as well as improving the wayfi nding and signage in the garage to streamline the parking experience for visitors. Some of the an! cipated parking challenges include the poten! al of spillover parking into the residen! al neighborhoods with the introduc! on of paid parking and more consistent enforcement, as well as the need to balance employee versus visitor parking needs.
This sec! on aims to provide the City with a menu of op! ons that addresses diff erent parking management needs. The strategies in this sec! on are designed to be realis! c and achievable, however the actual implementa! on steps may vary depending on the City’s priori! es, budget, staffi ng, and other factors. It is recommended that the City take an incremental approach to implemen! ng these strategies, as most recommenda! ons can work to achieve mul! ple priori! es.
PARKING MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES
The strategies presented in this Plan are informed by the following parking management objec! ves iden! fi ed in coordina! on with the City:
1. Mi! gate parking conges! on
2. Increase availability of parking
3. Improve commercial/visitor parking access
4. Provide employee parking opportuni! es
5. Improve compliance with parking policies and enforcement
6. Parking Program Management through mone! za! on
STRATEGIES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
CURB SPACE MANAGEMENT (ON-STREET)
a) Iden! fy short-term spaces (No more than 30-minutes) for quick turnover on Thousand Oaks Blvd. and E Main St.
To encourage higher turnover and accommodate the growing trend for quick curbside ac! vity, the City should iden! fy short-term parking spaces along Thousand Oaks Boulevard and E. Main Street. Paired with consistent enforcement, these short-term parking spaces can help improve commercial parking access and ensure that even on theater show nights, there is plenty of parking availability for visitors patronizing businesses in the downtown area. The City may also consider iden! fying shorter ! me-limits for parking spaces on internal streets for the purposes of pick-up/drop-off ac! vi! es. It is recommended that these short-term spaces either be applied at the beginning and/or end of each block face Figure C.1: Diagram of book-ended short-term parking space I I - = Short -term space

for convenience, or in the middle of each block face for e ven faster access to the shops on that block face and to free up corners for the poten! al installa! on of pay sta! ons, as shown in Figure 1.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Conduct parking u! liza! on data collec! on to calculate average turnover along Thousand Oaks Boulevard and E. Main Street. q Evaluate whether current parking u! liza! on behavior and pa" erns refl ect the need for short-term ! me limits.
q Coordinate with the City Engineer to iden! fy new ! me-limited spaces. q Install the appropriate signage to indicate ! me limits and paint curbs green as required by Thousand Oaks municipal code Sec. 4-3.416. q Conduct educa! onal outreach via social media posts, press release, and fl yers to inform the community of changes to the curb. q Launch a warning campaign by enforcement staff when ! me limited spaces are newly established to help educate drivers and encourage compliance.
b) Reduce 3-hour parking spaces to no more than 2-hour in spaces on Thousand Oaks Blvd. not iden! fi ed for short-term parking.
It is recommended that the City reduce 3-hour on-street parking spaces to 2-hour ! me limits or less on Thousand Oaks Blvd. to encourage visitors to park in the garage for any longer-term stays. A 2-hour ! me limit typically provides enough ! me for dining, shopping, and other commercial ac! vi! es. By se% ng the on-street ! me limits to be no longer than two hours, the City can ensure there is consistent turnover of parking spaces and improve access to local businesses in the downtown area.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Conduct parking u! liza! on data collec! on to calculate average turnover along Thousand Oaks Blvd. to evaluate the need for ! me limit changes.
q No! fy business owners, property managers, and community members about the proposed change.
q Coordinate with City Engineer to update signage and curb marking as needed.
q Launch a warning campaign by enforcement staff to help educate drivers and encourage compliance.
q Encourage garage parking for longer visits by installing adequate wayfi nding signage to the off -street parking facili! es. q Monitor parking u! liza! on and turnover levels and garage usage to determine the impact and eff ec! veness of the 2-hour ! me limits. c) Create uniform ! me-limited parking zones (1-hour, 2-hour, 4-hour) depending on demand, proximity and use. 4-hour zones should be on the periphery and shorter-term spaces should be located closer to site.
Cura! ng a consistent, predictable parking experience for visitors through uniform ! me-limited parking zones in the commercial core would allow the City to be" er manage parking demand and improve commercial access in the downtown area. It is recommended that longer-term parking spaces (e.g. 4-hour) are located on the periphery, while shorter-term spaces are located closer to the main stretch of Thousand Oaks Blvd. where there is a high concentra! on of businesses and des! na! ons.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Coordinate with the City Engineer to determine the appropriate designa! on and loca! on of various ! me-limited parking zones in the commercial area.
d) Provide rideshare incen! ves and iden! fy rideshare pick-up/drop-off loca! ons on Thousand Oaks Blvd.
In order to balance modal share, especially on theater show nights, and improve vehicle conges! on on Thousand Oaks Blvd., the City should consider providing rideshare incen! ves for theater show patrons and specifying rideshare pick-up/drop-off loca! ons on Thousand Oaks Blvd.
The City can designate opera! ng hours for the rideshare pick-up/drop-off • WARY DESIII, IIC.

zones with posted signage, so that the parking spaces can be u! lized for regular visitor parking during the day. Ride share incen! ves would allow the City to alleviate peak-! me conges! on and increase parking availability for non-theater users, such as patrons of restaurants, shops, and other des! na! ons. The City can coordinate with its ! cket vendor pla" orm, Ticketmaster, and provide theatergoers with the op! on to obtain a rideshare voucher when they purchase a theater show ! cket online. With fewer vehicles parking in the garage and on the streets, the City may also choose to reallocate certain parking spaces or zones for higher value uses, such as premium parking or valet parking opportuni! es, which could help generate new parking revenue streams for the City. As the likelihood of surge pricing will happen on occasion, a voucher will help off set the poten! al increase in fees due during event nights.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Coordinate with ! cket vendor pla" orm to list a rideshare voucher as one of the add-on services in the online ! cket purchase process. q Reach out to rideshare vendors to help set up a voucher program. q Conduct a marke! ng campaign to promote the rideshare voucher program.
q Coordinate with the City Engineer to iden! fy rideshare pick-up/drop- off loca! ons along Thousand Oaks Blvd.
q Install signage and curb markings as needed for pick-up/drop-off zones.
q Evaluate the fi nancial impact of the rideshare incen! ves and adjust the program as needed, such as increasing or decreasing the amount of vouchers available per night.
OFF-STREET MANAGEMENT
a) Iden! fy short-term spaces (30-minutes to 1-hour) for quick turnover, at development site.
In addi! on to iden! fying short-term spaces on-street, the City should also designate short-term parking spaces in the parking garage at the development site to accommodate quick curbside ac! vity and encourage higher turnover. For example, the City may choose to dedicate a row of parking spaces on the ground fl oor of the parking garage for short- term parking, which allows for easy ingress and egress of vehicles, while vehicles staying long-term would be directed to park on the upper fl oors.
It is also recommended that the City dedicate loading zone spaces with 10-15 minute ! me-limits to accommodate for delivery services such as Amazon, Uber Eats and other short-term pick-up/drop-off needs.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Evaluate delivery service pa& erns including most frequent hours, volume of delivery drivers, and length of delivery to determine the number of short-term spaces, loca! on, and if applicable, opera! ng hours. q Install signage as needed.
b) Create a shared parking model for off -street parking opportuni! es for evening hours par! cularly along Thousand Oaks Blvd, and off -street lots near the Theater. This would include developing a shared parking agreement City template.
The City can leverage shared parking agreements in order to maximize exis! ng off -street parking supply and increase off -street parking opportuni! es, especially during theater show nights. A shared parking agreement can be designed to be mutually benefi cial with agreed upon parameters and a revenue share. The parking lot owner would authorize the City to implement and post signage and equipment for ! me limited, permi& ed, and/or paid public parking on the property. This could be during or outside of the owner’s posted business hours. The City would then have the ability to off er these spaces as public parking or permit spaces, while the private lot can benefi t from the City resources for parking enforcement and cita! ons on their lots. Shared parking agreements are the most cost-eff ec! ve way of increasing public parking supply since they op! mize the use of exis! ng infrastructure and avoid the costly investment in building and maintaining new facili! es. Figure 2 visualizes poten! al shared parking loca! ons along Thousand Oaks Blvd. • WARY DESIII, IIC.
65 February 2026 |
Implemen
ta on Steps:
q R
each out to local property owners and garner interest for a poten! al shared parking agreement.
q Create a shared parking agreement template that iden! fi es responsibili! es for each party (private lot owner and City), including maintenance, enforcement, liability, and insurance requirements. c) Implement uniform parking zones (longer
term than on-street) 2 to 4-hour me limits
in lots in the core areas and 4+ hours in the
peripheral areas. Once shared parking is in
place, this will be an opportunity for privately
owned lots to mone ze their opera ons. This
also supports the “park once” philosophy.
Based on the loca! on of the off -street
parking area and its distance from the core
commercial businesses and des! na! ons, the
City should implement uniform parking zones
with ! me limits ranging from 2 to 4 hours to
be$ er organize parking demand and turnover.
Having uniform parking zones can also help
the City support the “park once” philosophy,
which is the concept that parking and mobility
op! ons, policies, and messaging should be
designed such that drivers only need to fi nd
a parking space once during their en! re visit.
Rather than re-parking mul! ple ! mes, which
creates more traffi c, drivers should park once
and then walk, bike, or ride transit between
mul! ple des! na! ons. This reduces conges! on
by minimizing vehicular travel within the
commercial core and promotes the use of
alterna! ve modes of mobility. Having uniform parking zones with longer ! me limits for theater show a$ endees helps keep short-term parking spaces available for patrons of businesses in the commercial core.
Implementa on Steps:
q Coordinate shared parking agreements with private property owners and establish enforcement responsibili! es.
q Install signage as necessary.
PARKING MANAGEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT

q Launch an educa! onal campaign to inform community members of the parking policy changes, such as by pos! ng a digital map on the City’s website that outlines each parking ! me limit zone.
d) Off er off -site employee parking with shu le service at various satellite loca ons including parking lots off Conejo School, Conejo Ridge, Thousand Oaks Blvd, and Transporta on Center.
In order to increase parking availability for theater guests and other visitors, the City should consider off ering off -site employee parking with shu# le services. Refer to the Recommended Parking Strategies sec! on in the Report for poten! al off -site employee parking loca! ons. City buses could be u! lized as shu# les in the evenings a$ er scheduled routes, which would help off set any program costs associated with the employee parking program.
Implementa on Steps:
q Evaluate the feasibility of iden! fi ed off -site employee parking loca! ons, including parking supply and current demand of the facility. q Conduct an employee survey to gauge interest in a shu# ling program and gather informa! on regarding current commute pa# erns and an! cipated needs.
q Coordinate with the City’s transit department to evaluate opportuni! es to leverage the City’s exis! ng bus fl eet for the shu# le program.
q Establish a shu# le schedule and route between the satellite loca! ons and the theater, ensuring that shu# les run late enough to accommodate varying shi$ ! mes.
PAID PARKING MANAGEMENT
a) Incorporate a paid parking management model with the establishment of a parking district structure. The parking district(s) could be managed by a Business Improvement District that contracts with the City for a fi ve-year contract, and annual budget review by City Council.
The City should consider establishing parking districts as part of the paid parking management model, which would enable revenues generated from the parking program beyond what is required for cost recovery to be reinvested into the local community for various parking, transporta! on, and mobility ini! a! ves. The City should prepare detailed annual repor! ng of revenue and expenditures as it pertains to the parking program.
The repor! ng shall consider enforcement and paid parking opera! ons separately to ensure transparency of revenue sources and cost centers.
This detailed breakdown can support decision-making with regards to parking program improvements.
Implementa on Steps:
q Establish a revenue reinvestment policy that details specifi c allowable uses for parking revenue, such as streetscape improvements, transit subsidies, bike infrastructure, or sidewalk repairs.
q Engage stakeholders in district forma! on and gather consensus around reinvestment priori! es.
q Prepare annual repor! ng of program revenue and expenses. q Ensure program transparency by publishing annual reports on the City’s website or presen! ng the fi ndings during a public mee! ng or City Council session.
q Form advisory commi# ees to help guide re-investment project priori! es.
b) Establish eligible uses for parking revenue, which would include parking and mobility improvements, beau fi ca on, street ligh ng, streetscape, power washing, etc.
To ensure the eff ec! ve reinvestment of parking revenue, the City should establish all eligible uses for parking revenue as part of the forma! on of the parking district(s), such as parking and mobility improvements, beau! fi ca! on, street ligh! ng, streetscaping, power washing, and more.
It is recommended that the City incorporates City Council’s priori! es

f
or transporta! on and mobility ini! a! ves to ensure any short -term investments are aligned with the City’s long-term goals.
Implementa on Steps:
q Establish a parking and mobility fund that outlines specifi c uses for paid parking revenue reinvestment.
c) Implement paid parking as a parking management tool for turnover and occupancy to achieve the target occupancy rate of 85%. Only when parking occupancy is at or above 85%, this would trigger paid parking implementa on.
The parking industry benchmark for when policy changes should be considered is when parking occupancy exceeds 85%; maintaining an occupancy rate of 85% minimizes conges! on and maximizes u! liza! on of parking assets, but exceeding this rate can make it challenging to fi nd available parking, contribu! ng to traffi c conges! on, spillover challenges, and driver frustra! on. Using this threshold, the City should consider implemen! ng paid parking as a tool to be$ er manage parking supply and demand, which can help increase turnover and maintain a target occupancy rate of 85%. Before introducing paid parking on-street, it is cri! cal that the City conducts ongoing sampling of parking u! liza! on data at both the on- and off -street parking loca! ons to determine the actual parking demand. If the City fi nds that the on-street block faces consistently exceed 85% occupancy, then paid parking could serve as an eff ec! ve tool to encourage more off -street parking u! liza! on and provide relief to some of the more congested on-street loca! ons.
Implementa on Steps:
q Conduct regular parking u! liza! on data collec! on to monitor parking demand.
q Implement paid parking if occupancy is consistently at or above 85% occupancy.
q Set parking rates that are comparable to neighboring agencies of similar size and feel.
q Ensure on-street parking rates are comparable to off -street parking rates to encourage long-term visitors to park in the structures. wOn-street parking generally serves as “premium parking” spaces that grant drivers with easy access to businesses, restaurants, and shops, and should therefore be priced higher than the off -street loca! ons (with the excep! on of special event nights when rates may be infl ated).
d) Implement a mix of pay sta ons and mobile payment which will limit street furniture. One pay sta on can manage up to 15 parking spaces versus a parking meter which manages one space per meter.
It is recommended that the City procure pay sta! ons and leverage a mobile payment applica! on as the two primary op! ons for paid parking in Thousand Oaks. Pay sta! ons are ideal to minimize the number of curb installa! ons when compared to single-space parking meters, while mobile payments off er users the fl exibility of being able to pay for, monitor, and extend parking sessions from a smartphone. The City can leverage their exis! ng contract with Passport for their mobile payment solu! on. Both methods can be applied to on-street and off -street paid parking loca! ons, ensuring that there is a consistent experience no ma$ er where a driver chooses to park. Addi! onally, both pay sta! ons and mobile payments can associate payments to a license plate number which will streamline compliance monitoring with the use of LPR.
Implementa on Steps:
q Ini! ate an RFP for a pay sta! on provider.
q Procure pay sta! on provider, and explore opportuni! es to wrap the pay sta! on with a custom design specifi c to the City to increase the aesthe! c appeal of infrastructure.
wConsider leveraging community art to help cul! vate a sense of place. q Leverage Passport’s mobile payment solu! on for ease of procurement. q Conduct a pay sta! on placement plan.
q Install signage to promote mobile payment solu! on.

q Consider
conduc! ng a promo! onal campaign with the mobile payment solu! on, where drivers could receive a discount or limited amount of free parking in the fi rst phase of implementa! on to help drive user sa! sfac! on and encourage mobile payment use.
PERMIT MANAGEMENT
a) Leverage exis ng rela onship with Cita on Management vendor Passport, to incorporate Permit Management into the City’s system, for monthly and annual permit opportuni es at the site.
The City has the opportunity to leverage their current Cita! on Management System (CMS) vendor, Passport, for their permit management system (PMS) solu! ons. The PMS would directly integrate with the CMS, which would greatly improve enforcement effi ciency and allow the City to place blocks on certain permit applica! ons if necessary, such as in the case that there are outstanding cita! on balances.
Another benefi t is that residents, employees, and visitors applying for permits can manage the process on-line and can upload all the required documenta! on on their computer or smartphone.
Implementa on Steps:
q Coordinate a vendor demonstra! on of the PMS pla$ orm. q Determine vendor’s ability to meet City’s scope of services, and pursue a contract amendment for the added PMS service.
b) Residen al permits can also be incorporated at a later date once development has occurred.
If the City fi nds that commercial parking demand and the eff ects of paid parking are causing spillover into the residen! al streets, a Residen! al Parking Permit (RPP) program should be considered in order to maintain residen! al parking access. The RPP program can also be managed on the automated PMS pla$ orm, allowing residents to apply for and manage their permits online. Below are some considera! ons for developing an RPP program:
Implementa on Steps:
q Review City’s municipal code language to ensure that it allows for a virtual, plate-based RPP program.
q Establish RPP program guidelines that describe RPP zone establishment process, pe! ! oning process, applica! on requirements, permit maximums, permit opera! ng hours, data collec! on processes, guest permit policies,
PARKING MANAGEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT
What are the benefi ts of automated permit management systems (PMS)?
An automated PMS enables the administra! on of virtual permits, which can provide fl exibility in the applica! on and management process for both permit holders and City staff . Agencies who have transi! oned to virtual permits typically experience minimized administra! ve workload and increased ease of integra! on with other parking technology, such as LPR or a Cita! on Management System (CMS), to streamline enforcement.
Permit holders typically experience increased convenience and ease of use, which can drive program success.
The vendor would also off er their industry experience to guide the City in implemen! ng RPP program changes, including designing the applica! on process.
and permit fees.
q Conduct stakeholder outreach to inform community members of the RPP program and zone establishment process.
q Conduct parking u! liza! on data collec! on on a regular basis to adapt the RPP program as needed.
ENFORCEMENT
a) Outsource parking enforcement to a parking management operator for all on-and-off street loca ons throughout the City, including theater/ special event enforcement.

ARKING MANAGEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT
What are some considera! ons?
•
Defi ne the RPP zones: The area in which parking permits apply should be developed based on an analysis of parking impacts and parking u! liza! on. An individual RPP zone should consist of at least 4 con! guous blocks.
• Permit Eligibility: Based on the 2016 California State A# orney General’s opinion (#14-304), an RPP Program should not diff eren! ate between types of dwelling. This means that the program should apply to both single-family homes and mul! -unit dwellings within the RPP area. When developing the program, it is important to iden! fy the concentra! ons of diff erent types of dwellings as it can impact the program rules and permit types applicable.
• Program Rules: Program rules include who qualifi es as a resident, how a resident applies and is approved for a permit, how many permits are allowed per household or registered driver, how o& en the resident should renew their permits, the cost structure of the permits (and if there is a low-income rate), and what the qualifi ca! on (and poten! ally pe! ! oning) process is for the addi! on of new permit zones. Addi! onally, it is important to iden! fy a guest passes policy that off ers residents the ability to off er temporary permits to personal visitors. • Permit Design: It is important to specify the opera! ng hours of the permits and any addi! onal terms if there is to be more than one permit type. Some examples of typical opera! ng hours for RPP programs include:
o 2 AM–5 AM g Overnight restric! ons to address high residen! al parking demand.
o 8 AM–6 PM g Commercial hour restric! ons to address employee and visitor parking.
o 24/7 g All-day restric! ons for areas of especially high residen! al parking demand.
As new parking policy and management strategies become introduced, consistent parking enforcement will be a key factor in the success of the City’s parking program in order to ensure compliance. Given the current limita! ons in enforcement resources with the Ventura County’s Sheriff ’s Offi ce, the City should consider outsourcing parking enforcement for consistent and eff ec! ve enforcement. An enforcement contractor provides the personnel and exper! se to act as or supplement an agency’s parking enforcement team. Third-party parking enforcement vendors can off er the City the ability to quickly scale enforcement opera! ons, provide effi ciency through their exis! ng exper! se and specializa! on in this industry, and access to equipment (such as addi! onal vehicles and LPR units).
Implementa! on Steps:
q Dra& the desired scope of services for the parking management operator that includes requirements for personnel, training, equipment, and communica! ons.
q Ini! ate RFP process for a parking management operator. q Select a vendor based on qualifi ca! on criteria.
wEnsure selected vendor u! lizes LPR for enforcement.
wVerify integra! on requirements between vendor’s LPR technology and City’s exis! ng paid parking, permit, and cita! on solu! ons.
Theater/Special Event Parking Management (Includes fi nancial modeling)
a) Evaluate theater parking rates on an annual or biannual basis, including the considera! on of premium parking rates on high-traffi c nights.
The City should establish an annual or biannual rate evalua! on process that adjusts paid parking rates in response to evolving needs.
It is recommended that any adjustments to paid parking rates are conducted following parking u! liza! on data collec! on to ensure that any adjustments refl ect actual parking demand and program needs.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Establish a theater parking rate review process and schedule. q Evaluate parking u! liza! on data for the garage.
q Conduct fi nancial modeling to evaluate program opera! ng costs and revenue.

b) Procure fi xed-mount License Plate Reader technology to accurately pr
ovide real-" me dynamic parking occupancy info.
In order to improve the off -street parking experience at the garage, the City should leverage fi xed-mount License Plate Recogni# on (LPR) cameras to provide real-# me dynamic parking occupancy info. The City can leverage the exis# ng digital sign on the exterior of the garage to populate the occupancy counts.
Implementa" on Steps:
q Dra$ the desired scope of services for the fi xed-mount LPR technology vendor that includes design requirements, hardware specifi ca# ons, so$ ware repor# ng capabili# es, installa# on procedures, and data privacy. q Ini# ate RFP process for a fi xed-mount LPR technology vendor. q Select a vendor based on qualifi ca# on criteria.
q Schedule a training session with vendor to walk through the so$ ware, specifi cally the repor# ng and data analysis capabili# es. c) Improve wayfi nding signage in the structure and along Thousand Oaks Blvd. to avoid confusion and direct occupants in and out of the garage.
The City should consider improving the signage and wayfi nding at the parking structure to improve the parking experience and eliminate confusion for the ingress and egress confi gura# ons. In addi# on to the structure, dynamic real-# me signage should be installed on Thousand Oaks Blvd. informing theater patrons what the u# liza# on is at the structure. Once in the structure, eff ec# ve wayfi nding can help streamline the fl ow of traffi c and the City may choose to leverage addi# onal temporary signs such as A-frames during high-occupancy hours, such as theater show nights.
What are the benefi ts of outsourcing?
R
educed administra" ve labor & risks: When employee and personnel management func# ons and their associated risks are transferred to the contractor, the City can save # me and costs on internal resources, funding, and personnel management. The contractor is responsible for the coverage of open shi$ s, sourcing temporary and permanent staffi ng, and providing training.
Assured and consistent service levels: The City has full control over direc# ng the contractor in the execu# on of enforcement responsibili# es, including the procedures and protocols the CSOs must follow when interac# ng with the community. The contractor is commi' ed to a contractually defi ned standard of service, included Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). This ensures the public receives the same experience regardless of turnover in CSOs and off ers the City fl exibility in covering hours that are diffi cult to fi ll.
Access to equipment: The contractor can also be responsible for providing equipment, such as vehicles and LPR, to improve enforcement opera# ons more effi ciently without wai# ng on longer, some# mes mul# -year procurement and internal processes.
Ability to effi ciently scale the program: The City can direct the contractor to expand or shrink enforcement opera# ons by adjus# ng the contract value. This gives the City fl exibility to quickly adapt to changes in the size of the RPP program, for example, when new streets are added to a district.
Cost savings: The total cost for outsourced labor is typically lower than the fully burdened cost of agency staff due to diff erences in salary and benefi t requirements. For select roles where a full-# me employee is not required, the vendor may also have more fl exibility than the City in covering par# al hours, ensuring effi cient resource usage to achieve op# mal coverage. A typical vendor charges $45-60/hour, and approximately $5,000/month in fi xed fees. Expenses include the burdened cost of labor, uniforms, offi ce space and supplies, equipment, and any fi xed, monthly fees. ~ WATRY DESIGN, INC.

wIncorporate community art as appropriate to help improve the aesthe! c element of the structure.
q Install updated wayfi nding signage.
q Leverage the contract with the fi xed-mount LPR technology provider for digital messaging boards to display real-! me signage along Thousand Oaks Blvd.
q Coordinate with the City Engineer to determine the best placement of dynamic signage on Thousand Oaks Blvd.
d) Include valet opportuni! es for special event nights, and ! e in with hotel valet management.
Valet opportuni! es for special event nights can help maximize parking supply in the garage, and the City should consider coordina! ng with the hotel valet management to ensure resources are maximized. Valet parking should be integrated in the ! cket management solu! on as an add-on service when patrons purchase their theater show ! ckets, which would streamline the user experience and maximize poten! al paid parking revenue for the City.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Designate the top fl oor of the structure for valet parking in order to maximize parking supply and increase density for special event nights. q Reach out to hotel valet management operators to coordinate joint valet opportuni! es for special event nights.
q Evaluate opportuni! es to leverage hotel parking supply for theater parking when demand is especially high on nights there are simultaneous theater showings.
q Coordinate with the ! cket management vendor to include valet parking as an add-on in the ! cket purchase portal.
q Designate a valet service drop-off loca! on with extensive wayfi nding signage to mi! gate any poten! al back-up outside of the structure. q Consider expanding valet opera! ons to the lower levels of the garage to increase parking density if supply is inadequate on nights when there are simultaneous theater showings.
TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT
a) Opportunity to subsidize free bus passes to theater workers to incen! vize public transit instead of driving.
The City should explore the opportunity to subsidize free bus passes for theater workers in order to incen! vize public transit use instead of personal vehicle use. Currently, theater workers park free of charge in the off -street garage. If the City moves forward with requiring payment for all garage users, a fi nancial incen! ve should be provided to change employee parking behaviors. Providing a subsidized bus pass, in combina! on with the establishment of satellite off -street parking for employees, would allow the City to off set employee parking demand in the main theater parking area and priori! ze parking availability for visitors.
Implementa! on Steps:
q Partner with transit providers to establish a subsidized or fully covered bus pass program specifi cally for theater employees.
wEstablish partnership through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that outlines the program requirements.
q Conduct employee surveys to assess theater workers’ commu! ng pa% erns, transit access needs, and interest in a subsidized bus pass program.
q Establish program eligibility and enrollment process by defi ning eligibility criteria (such as minimum number of hours per week) and develop an enrollment process, ideally on an online virtual pla& orm to streamline administra! ve processes.
q Launch a pilot employee bus pass program to determine program • WARY DESIII, IIC.

q Iden! fy a satellite off -street parking loca! on for employees, such as the Transporta! on Center.
w Ensure accessibility and safety of the parking loca! on by coordina! ng security personnel, adequate ligh! ng, and ameni! es such as a wai! ng area and restrooms.
wEvaluate the need for any technology installa! on at the parking loca! on such as an access control system to enter parts of the lot. wGuarantee a ride back to the satellite off -street parking loca! on by expanding bus route service and frequency specifi cally on theater show nights.
b) Opportunity for fr ee hop-on/hop-off trolley for Summer and weekend evenings when parking demand is typically higher. This also promotes the park once philosophy.
During peak demand evenings in the summer season, the City should consider introducing a free hop-on/hop-off trolley that originates from the Transporta! on Center and runs along Thousand Oaks Blvd. Not only would visitors benefi t from not having to re-park their vehicles, but it could also help off set service workers and theater workers, which would free up on- and off -street parking for patrons of downtown businesses and theater a% endees. A free trolley can help patronize local businesses and increase foot traffi c to the main commercial core, helping to revitalize the downtown area and create a lively atmosphere for visitors and residents alike. Figure 3 shows an example of the City of Laguna Beach’s free trolley that runs three set routes in the summer, origina! ng from a peripheral parking lot to encourage the “park once” philosophy.
Implementa" on Steps:
q Conduct a feasibility study to evaluate the opera! onal, fi nancial, and logis! cal feasibility of implemen! ng a seasonal trolley service, including the iden! fi ca! on of poten! al routes, stop loca! ons, service frequency, hours of opera! on, and es! mated ridership demand.

q Promote the service through social media channels, fl yers, digital ads, and signage.
c) Opportunity to use City ’s buses as shu! les in the evenings to encourage parking at satellite off -street lots.
City buses could be used a# er scheduled routes as shu$ les in the evenings to encourage visitors to park at satellite off -street lots, especially for longer-term stays in the commercial area. For the purposes of shu$ ling downtown employees to and from the peripheral off -street parking areas, the City should ensure that the shu$ le service runs late enough to accommodate employees who work at late-night establishments, such as bars and restaurants.
Implementa# on Steps:
q Assess bus fl eet availability in coordina! on with the City’s transit department.
q Conduct parking u! liza! on data collec! on to understand peak demand hours.
q Evaluate poten! al off -street parking areas in the periphery by coordina! ng with private lot owners and any exis! ng underu! lized City- owned parking facili! es.
q Coordinate with business owners and employees to understand shi# end ! mes to determine shu$ le opera! ng hours, as well as to promote the service and communicate program updates.
q Pilot the evening shu$ le program and evaluate eff ec! veness of the program by monitoring parking u! liza! on levels in the main commercial area and gather pointed user feedback through surveys.
q Publicize the availability of satellite parking loca! ons and shu$ le services to visitors on the City’s website, downtown wayfi nding signage, social media, and local business communica! ons.
q Enhance satellite off -street parking loca! ons with adequate ligh! ng, security presence, signage, pedestrian safety features, shelters, and sea! ng areas to improve the user experience.
q Adjust program opera! ons based on pilot data and user feedback, such as modifying the schedule, routes, or stop loca! ons.
d) Establish a bike share program to promote alternate modes of transporta# on
A public (City sponsored) or private bike share program can be established in the downtown area that allows people rent bicycles for short trips between the downtown and/or off -site parking lots. Bikes are typically sta! oned at docking sta! ons or geofenced dockless area around the city and unlocked via a mobile applica! on, membership, or kiosk to begin their rental. Bicycles can be returned to the rental loca! on or any other docking sta! on or dockless sta! on in the district. A bike share system — whether docked, dockless, or hybrid — could provide a convenient fi rst and last mile connec! on between parking areas, transit stops, employment centers, and key des! na! ons within the district.

q Assess poten! al loca! ons for bike share docks or designated bike parking areas for a dockless system.
q Engage stakeholders and community groups to garner interest and feedback
q Determine system size and fee structure, if any.
q Solicit private bike share companies/vendors or establish a City sponsored bike share program
q Select between a docked or dockless system, and types of bikes, i.e. standard or e-bikes
q Plan infrastructure for bike parking, redistribu! on, electric charging, if applicable.

Parking wayfi nding is an essen" al part of a downtown or parking dis trict.
Dynamic parking guidance signs off er a range of benefi ts for drivers, ci" es, and businesses by using real-" me informa" on to direct drivers to available parking spaces. Here are the key advantages:
1. Reduced Traffi c Conges" on: Drivers spend less " me circling for parking, which decreases overall traffi c volume and road conges" on, par" cularly in busy urban areas or during peak " mes.
2. Improved Driver Experience: Clear, real-" me signage reduces the stress and frustra" on associated with searching for parking. Drivers can make faster, more confi dent decisions.
3. Lower Emissions: By minimizing unnecessary driving, these systems help reduce vehicle emissions and fuel consump" on, contribu" ng to be% er air quality and environmental outcomes.
7. Supports Smart City Ini" a" ves: Dynamic signs o& en integrate with broader intelligent transporta" on systems (ITS), suppor" ng smart city goals like sustainability, livability, and technological innova" on.
8. Be% er Event and Peak Time Management: During special events or rush hours, dynamic systems can adjust messaging to guide traffi c to less congested areas or alternate parking op" ons.
Providing parking wayfi nding and signage on Thousand Oaks Boulevard is the fi rst step in a comprehensive signage program. These signs should iden" fy and direct visitors to the diff erent parking loca" ons, and how many spaces are available. Examples of these external street monument signs are shown in Figure X.
At the entry of each parking facility, signage should be provided with further detail on available parking spaces by level to direct drivers to available parking. Signage can also include pricing and general informa" on on events if provided on a full digital display screen.
4. Increased Effi ciency of Parking
Space Use: P
arking spaces, especially
in large lots or garages, are u" lized
more effi ciently because drivers are
directed to open spots that might
otherwise go unno" ced.
5. Enhanced Revenue Collec" on:
For paid parking systems, be% er
occupancy can lead to increased
revenue.
6. Data Collec" on and Management:
These systems collect usage data that
can help city planners and operators
op" mize parking layouts, pricing, and

Section 5.9, Hydrology and Water Quality1,3
Exhibit 5.9 -1,
Proposed Hydrology
To help prevent long -term impacts associated
with the proposed project, and in accordance
with the requirements of the City and the
regional MS4 permit, the Hydrology Report
identifies BMPs and LIDs to reduce pollutants in
post-development runoff. In accordance with the
VCWPD’s Hydrology Design Manual and
Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan, the
project site was divided into three tributary areas
(i.e., TA-1, TA- 2, and TA -3) to be utilized for
defining drainage areas and sizing LID and other
treatment control BMPs; refer to Draft EIR
Exhibit 5.9-1, Proposed Hydrology. Runoff from
the three tributary areas would be directed to
three proposed systems and one existing system
to treat stormwater prior to flowing into the
VCWPD’s RCB. Additionally, as outlined in the
Hydrology Report, the proposed project would
be required to implement site design, source
control, and LID BMPs to reduce potential
adverse impacts related to water quality and
stormwater runoff volumes that could result
from project implementation.
Refer below to Exhibit 5.9-1, Proposed Hydrology,
of Section 2.3, Impacts Resulting from
Modifications to the Project, for modifications to
the proposed on-site storm drain facilities.
Drainage
As mentioned above, the project site was divided
into three tributary areas (i.e., TA-1, TA-2, and
TA-3). TA-1 consists of approximately 52 percent
of the total project site area and contains over 90
percent of all proposed development. TA1 spans
the width of the project site from east to west
and covers areas between the existing buildings
and Thousand Oaks Boulevard. Because TA -1
consists of more than 50 percent of the total
project site area, this tributary area would be
responsible for treating the entire project site
area, which includes TA-2 and TA-3. TA-2 consists
of the southern portion of the project site,
behind the existing buildings and loading dock for

2.3.1 Impacts by Topical Area
Potential environmental impacts resulting from the proposed modifications to the analysis presented in the Draft EIR are presented below for each applicable environmental topic or consideration.3 Hydrology and Water Quality
The Draft EIR includes water quality and drainage pattern analysis, which is analyzed under Draft EIR Impact s HWQ-1 and HWQ-3, respectively. The following presents brief summaries and minor revisions to the analysis presented in these Impact Statements. Overall, the revised project would not result in any new potentially adverse hydrology and water quality impacts not previously considered and analyzed in the Draft EIR.
To help prevent long-term impacts associated with the proposed project, and in accordance with the requirements of the City and the regional MS4 permit, the Hydrology Report identifies BMPs and LIDs to reduce pollutants in post - development runoff. In accorda nce with the VCWPD’s Hydrology Desig n Manual and Standard Urban Stormwater Mitigation Plan, the project site was divided into three tributary areas (i.e., TA -1, TA-2, and TA -3) to be utilized for defining drainage areas and sizing LID and other treatment control BMPs; refer to Draft EIR Exhibit 5.9 -1, Proposed Hydrology. Runoff from the three tributary areas would be directed to three proposed systems and one existing system to treat stormwater prior to flowing into the VCWPD’s RCB. Due to the proposed minor updates, Draft EIR Exhibit 5.9- 1 was modified to revise the proposed on-site storm drain facilities; refer to Exhibit 5.9-1 below.
The project site was divided into three tributary areas (i.e., TA -1, TA -2, and TA -3). TA -1 consists of approximately 52 percent of the total project site area and contains over 90 percent of all proposed development. TA -1 spans the width of the project site from east to west and covers areas between the existing buildings and Thousand Oaks Boulevard. TA-2 consists of the southern portion of the project site, behind the existing buildings and loading dock for the Kavli Theatre, which is to be unchanged by the proposed project. Overall, TA -2 consists of 17 percent of the total project site area. TA-3 consists of the remaining 32 percent of the total project site area and includes the areas east of the existing buildings and the branch of the site that extends to Conejo School Road.
Land Use and Planning
The Draft EIR provides project consistency analysis with the proposed Civic Arts Plaza Specific Plan (SP-11) development standards, which are analyzed in Draft EIR Table 5.10-1, SP-11 Project Consistency Analysis.

Revised SP-11 Project Consistency Analysis, provides revised project consistency with the revised SP -11 development standard. Overall, the revised project would be generally consistent with SP-11. As such, the revised project would not result in any new potentially adverse land use impacts not previously considered and analyzed in the Draft EIR.
Conclusion
Overall, the proposed modifications would not result in new significant impacts, would not increase in severity any environmental impacts of the project, and would not require any new mitigation measures not previously analyzed in the Draft EIR. The minor modifications to the project do not substantially or fundamentally alter the conclusions or findings of the Draft EIR relative to the project’s potential enviro nmental effects or proposed mitigation measures.
Therefore, in accordance with the standards outlined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15088.5, no recirculation of the EIR is required.
