be eliminated. Similarly, three (3) parking stalls directly across from the ramp on
Basement Level B2 ramp terminus shall be eliminated.

20. The City recommends that the proposed project relocate the stand-alone parking
structure to another area of the project site or relocate the storm drain line and

structure over the existing storm drain, the City requires the following item to be
reviewed and approved:
o Execution of an agreement to transfer the risk and liability away from the
City and to the developer and property owners;
o Provide a detailed inspection and conditions assessment of the existing
storm drain line and repairs;
o Reconstruction of the storm drain line under the proposed new parking
structure to provide a new service life that matches the proposed new
parking structure;

parking structure;
o Hydraulic analysis of the storm drain system and pipe;
o Hydrology analysis of the area; and
o Review other potential engineering solutions.
21. Provide a parking management plan for the project, including a narrative of the
entry gate operations, queuing, internal gates, users, grace period, assigned
parking, etc. Parkinig Management Plan shall be reviewed and approved by the
