Keating, AICP /Uv`� <br />Director, Planning evel. <br />James Davis, P.E. <br />Director Public Wor s <br />Richard Shearer, AICP <br />__FROM: Chief, Long -Range FENCES: <br />Mike Orr, Traffic Engineer-ptL <br />It is requested that the data herein presented be given formal <br />consideration by the Board of County Commissioners at their <br />regular meeting of September 30, 1986. <br />DESCRIPTION & CONDITIONS <br />On -.September 2, 1986, the Board of County Commissioners discussed <br />the appropiate method to utilize in calculating a traffic impact <br />fee for the Sandridge Golf Course. At that time, the Board <br />decided to follow the public works division's recommendation that <br />the fee be calculated based on required parking spaces. - An <br />unresolved issue was how many trip ends per parking space per day <br />should be used to determine the impact fee. <br />ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS <br />The Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Report <br />lists a range of 1.8 to .16.4 trip ends per day per parking space <br />for golf courses with an -average trip rate of 5.3 trip ends. The <br />staff originally felt that the 5.3 trip ends per parking space per <br />day should be utilized to -calculate the impact fee. In order to <br />verify that the 5.3 trip ends was the appropriate trip rate, the <br />traffic engineer took traffic counts at the Sebastian Municipal <br />Golf Course for comparison. These counts yielded an average <br />weekday rate of 381 trip ends for the 18 hole golf course. The <br />County would require 4 parking spaces per hole or 72 parking <br />spaces which is the same number of spaces required for Sandridge. <br />The average trip rate is calculated by dividing the 381 trip ends <br />by 72 required parking spaces resulting in a trip rate.of 5.29 per <br />parking space. Based on this study, the 5.3 trip seems to be <br />appropriate. <br />114 <br />
