M M M a. The waiver would not allow vehicles to encroach upon landscape or pedestrian areas (such areas shall be protected by tire stops, curbing, or the equivalent); b. The waiver would not allow vehicles to abut or "head into" one another in any fashion other than bumper to bumper [any bumper to fender (or side) parkin configurations shall require tire stops, curbing, or the equivalent]; C. The waiver would not apply to spaces accessed from driveways that serve as circulation driveways which channel traffic around or through the site or parking lot area; and d. The site plan parking area and traffic circulation design provide circulation driveways, as needed, to adequately channelize traffic flow. The application meets all of the above referenced criteria; therefore, the Public Works Director and Community Development Director have waived the tire stop requirement. Note: Pursuant to section 954.08(5), the applicant could request up to a 10% reduction in the amount of required parking if more of the existing trees within the proposed parking area were to be preserved. However, the applicant has not opted to preserve more trees in the parking area since.the minimum number of parking spaces acceptable to the applicant (1,599) is being provided. Therefore, although county regulations could allow more tree preservation in the parking area, the applicant has stated that the minimum number of parking spaces now proposed is essential to the project. 8. Traffic Impacts: The County Traffic Engineer has reviewed the traffic impact analysis submitted with the PD plans and has determined that the analysis is acceptable and that there are no concurrency problems or level of service problems related to project traffic. Furthermore, the analysis indicates that, other than some S.R. 60 turn lane and median improvements as well as 58th Avenue widening, no off-site traffic improvements are required for the project (built -out, both phases). The Public Works department has approved the proposed traffic layout with the proposed traffic improvements. The table below identifies each of the impacted roadway segments associated with the proposed project. Since the county's transportation level of service is based on peak hour/peak season/peak direction characteristics, the traffic impact analysis addressed project impact occurring in the peak hour and affecting the peak direction of impacted roadways. As indicated in the table below, there is sufficient capacity in all of the affected segments to accommodate the traffic projected to be associated with this project. 35 L_ AN 191993 BOOK 88 F-nF.60
