CAR PARKING REQUIREMENT

The parking requirement for the proposed development based on Council's Planning Scheme is shown
in Table 1. It is understood that only 55 students are on-site at any one time and two staff. Classes are
taught by students of the U3A and therefore have not been included in the number of staff.

Table 1: PLANNING SCHEME CAR PARKING REQUIREMENT
2 staff 1 space per employee
Adult Education a ;
55 students 1 space per 10 students of driving age
Total 7% 8

Therefore, the existing development requires a parking provision of 7 car parks. The site has 12 on-site
car parks and an agreement to use an additional 15. This is consistent with the parking requirements of
Council’s Planning Scheme.

Itis understood that Council has previously adopted a different car parking rates for similar developments.
Table 2 shows the parking requirement under these rates. This parking rate is not outlined in the Planning

Scheme.

Table 2: COUNCIL CAR PARKING REQUIREMENT

2 staff 1 space per employee 2

Adult Education
55 students 1 space per 2.5 students of driving age 22
Total 24

The existing car parking provision is in accordance with this parking requirement.

PARKING DEMAND

Additional information for the Semester 2 timetable, student and staff attendance and mode share
between 16 July 2018 and 20 July 2018 has been analysed to determine the parking demand on-site
and in the surrounding streets. The data provided indicates that on average 65% of students and staff

drive.

Figure 2 shows the number of parked vehicles associated with the U3A facility throughout the day. This
analysis assumes that the parks available to U3A are limited to the 12 on-site and the 15 at the church.
This analysis shows that there is a peak parking demand of 39 vehicles occurs between 9.30-11:30am
on a Wednesday, as indicated in Figure 2. This is 144% of the total parking capacity. However, the
average peak parking demand over the week is equal to 27 vehicles or 100% of the capacity, as shown
in Figure 3. Therefore, the average parking demand is consistent with the parking available to the U3A.
