THE C'TY Ce Q\ EL CERRITO AGENDA BILL Agenda Item No. 7(A) Date: November 21, 2011 To: El Cerrito City Council From: Lori Trevino, Redevelopment Manager Subject: Study Session on Transit-Oriented Development Feasibility Analysis and Parking Study for Specific Plan Update BACKGROUND In March 2011, there was a City Council staff presentation on the status of the San Pablo A venue Specific Plan. At that time, the Council concurred with the staff recommendation that further analysis of parking demand and development feasibility be completed in order to revise the Plan. The City has previously initiated the Del Norte Transit-Oriented Development Strategy through a FOCUS Technical Assistance Grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission. The City was able to augment and fund the scope of work with the consultant team that MTC had assigned for the Strategy to include these analyses for the Specific Plan. The team includes AECOM, which analyzed .development feasibility, and CHS Consulting, which studied parking demand and parking management best practices applicable to the San Pablo A venue corridor. The consultants will be presenting the results of their work and recommendations for the Specific Plan update. City staff will make recommendations for the approach to be taken in revising development standards in the Plan. The draft slides for the presentation are attached.
