1. INTRODUCTION
STC has prepared this Tier 3 Transportation Demand Management Plan on behalf of Greystar to support
the application for a minor Site Development Plan (SDP) and a minor Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a
proposed auto storage facility at 5980 Eagle Drive in the City of Carlsbad.
The site is located on the northeast corner of the Eagle Drive and Grey Hawk Court intersection in the City
of Carlsbad. A project site location and study area are shown in Figure 1. The project site plan consists of
308 parking spaces proposed on a 5.9-acre lot. A project site plan is shown on Figure 2.
The site will operate as an off-site parking lot for User delivery vans and delivery drivers' personal vehicles
between 9:00 AM and 10:00 PM for distribution to customers between 11:00 AM -9:00 PM. Delivery
drivers traveling by car will arrive at the parking lot and swap their car for a delivery van and drive to a
distribution center to load the van for their shift. At the end of the shift the delivery driver will return the
van to the lot and retrieve their car.
A TDM Plan scoping meeting was held with City staff and it was determined that auto storage is permitted
per the P-M (planned industrial zone) and that a Level Ill Local Mobility Analysis (LMA) report is required.
The LMA is provided under separate cover. The Scoping Agreement Memo is provided in Appendix A.
The City of Carlsbad also requires a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan if a site generates
110 or more average daily employee trips. A TDM Plan is required for the proposed parking lot and is
incorporated into this document.
This TDM Plan is organized into five sections:
1. Introduction
2. Existing Conditions and TDM Context
3. Infrastructure TDM Selections
4. Non-Infrastructure TDM Selections
5. Monitoring and Implementation
The following is a brief summary of the TDM Plan:
• The City's TOM Handbook (2019) requires a Tier 3 TDM Plan for a project that generates more
than 275 average daily employee trips. Proposed TDM infrastructure strategies and non-
infrastructure strategies are proposed and are listed in Table 1. The combined strategies meet the
18 points of TDM strategies required for this project. Some of the TDM strategies are also
highlighted in Figure L
• The TDM plan will comply with requirements of the Mobility Element and with the City's TDM
Ordinance.

Bicycle Infrastructure
Class II Bike Lanes are provided in both directions on both Eagle Drive. There are no bicycle facilities on
Grey Hawk Court and the street is classified as a local/neighborhood street in the City of Carlsbad Mobility
Element. Grey Hawk Court currently operates at bicycle level of service B.
Transit Cannectivity
Eagle Drive currently operates at LOS C for transit services on the northbound side fronting the project
site (5980 Eagle Drive Local Mobility Analysis, February 2021). Bus services are provided on nearby
Palomar Airport Road approximately¼ mile from the proposed site access. Palomar Airport Road also
operates at LOS C for transit services. The site is also within the Carlsbad Connector operational area
shown in Appendix C. This is an on demand, app-based shuttle service which runs from the Carlsbad
Poinsettia Coaster Station. However, as a result of temporary service reductions implemented on Coaster
trains due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the service has been temporarily suspended until further notice.
However, STC understands that the multi-agency partnership that manages the Carlsbad Connector
service will attempt to re-launch the service once the Coaster schedules return to normal.
Environmental
Appendix D provides a terrain view of the study area and vicinity and elevation profiles for Eagle Drive
and Grey Hawk Court. The sidewalk and bike lane provision as well as street lighting may encourage active
and alternative modes of travel. Appendix E shows the street views on Eagle Drive and Grey Hawk Court
from the proposed project driveways. The bike lane and sidewalk on Eagle Drive can be seen on both sides
of the street. The sidewalk on both sides of the street on Grey Hawk Court can also be seen.
Amenities
There are limited project specific and neighboring amenities within a ¼ mile or 5-minute walk of the
project site. The nearest local amenities are located at the Carlsbad Ranch Market on the northwest corner
of Palomar Airport Road and Business Park Drive. These are approximately¾ mile or a 15-minute walk
from the project site. Uninterrupted sidewalk is provided between the project site and Carlsbad Ranch
Market. The location of Carlsbad Ranch Market is shown in Figure 1. The following amenities are provided:
• Six food takeout/ delivery options
• Two fitness centers
• Small grocery store selling local produce
• Gas station and convenience store

2.3 Infrastructure TDM Selections
A total of 18 points is required from infrastructure and non-infrastructure TDM strategies. New
developments must achieve a minimum of 6 points through infrastructure strategies. The project is
anticipated to achieve 8 infrastructure points through the following strategies, points requested are
shown in parentheses:
Secure Bike Parking (1 point)
A minimum of four bike boxes will be provided approximately 120 feet from the Eagle Drive entrance to
the site adjacent to the transit shelter with space allocated for four more in the future. The bike boxes will
be accessible by access code, smart phone app or similar. The secure bike parking location is shown on
Figure 2 and will be accessible from the sidewalk on the east side of Eagle Drive. The bike boxes will be
two-tier so the dimensions of four boxes together will be 77-5/8" wide, 79-1/2" long and 101" high.
Bike Repair Station (l point)
A bike repair station (www.bikefixtation.com) will be provided on-site near the secure bike parking. The
repair station will provide a universal bike mounting stand, tool assemblies, and is ADA compliant. It also
comes with a QR-code for online help and instructions. The bike repair station is shown on Figure 2 and is
8.5'' wide, SO" high and 16" deep. The repair station will be located adjacent to the secure bike parking
and accessible from the sidewalk on the east side of Eagle Drive.
Transit Shelter (1 point)
A transit shelter will be provided to serve as a pick-up and drop-off location for on-demand, ride hailing
services. These could include:
• Drop-off and pick-up services
o Taxi services, Uber, Lyft
o Shuttle services
o Private cars making pass-by drop-off/ pick-up
• Carlsbad Connector (currently suspended)
The location of the shelter is shown on the site plan in Figure 2. The shelter will be 5-feet wide and 10-
feet long and will have a ceiling height of BO-inches It will be provided adjacent to the passenger loading
zone near the entrance to the site and accessible from the sidewalk on Eagle Drive. The shelter will be a
comfortable waiting space for employees and contain a display case/ kiosk with information about
available transportation options at the transit shelter. Information will be reviewed quarterly and updated
as needed.
Car/Vanpool Preferential Parking (2 points)
Sixteen parking stal!s will be reserved for car/vanpool parking only. Additional spaces will be provided
should these fill up. The User will have an enforcement policy in place to ensure that spaces are on!y used
by carpoolers and vanpoo!ers. The User will also provide a ride-matching service to employees to obtain
S980 Eagle Drive, Carlsbad
Tier 3 Transportation Demand Management Plan
' I
maximum points forth is TOM strategy. The location of the car/ van pool spaces are shown on Figure 2 and
will be located approximately 200 feet from the driveway access, opposite the ADA stalls.
Passenger Loading Zone (1 point}
A 12-feet wide passenger loading zone will be provided approximately 40-feet in length, long enough for
2 cars to wait in line and for the Carlsbad Connector to stop. Figure 3 shows the turning template for a
conventional school bus which represents the design vehicle for the Carlsbad Connector vans. The figure
shows that the Carlsbad Connector bus is able to navigate around the parking islands closest to the
entrance. The loading zone will be co-located with the transit shelter, secure bike parking and carpool
parking spaces, as shown in Figure 2.
Infrastructure Based Innovation (2 points}
The transit shelter and loading zone is considered innovative as it will not be limited to bus services. It will
provide a convenient waiting space for users of ride-hailing services such as the Carlsbad Connector or
Uber/ lyft. It also provides the opportunity for staff to be dropped off at the loading zone in a timely
manner. This is ideal for single car households who carpool to work. Services such as uber pool could be
utilized by staff traveling to/ from the same location. This strategy will be used in conjunction with The
User's ride-matching service.
As explained earlier, the shelter will be a comfortable waiting space for employees and contain a display
case/ kiosk with information about available transportation options at the transit shelter. Information will
be reviewed quarterly and updated as needed. While the Carlsbad Connector service is temporarily
suspended due to a reduction in Coaster rail services as a result of COVI0-19, STC understands that the
service managers will attempt to re-launch the service once Coaster schedules return to normal.
2.4 Non-Infrastructure TOM Selections
In addition to the infrastructure selections listed above, the project is requesting a further 11 points from
non-infrastructure TOM selections to achieve the required 18 points combined. The non-infrastructure
selections are listed below with points requested shown in parentheses:
Transportation Coordinator (1 point)
The transportation coordinator responsible for ensuring the infrastructure is developed as agreed upon
with the City, wilt be Neal Abbott. Contact details are provided in Appendix B.
Distribute New Hire Transportation Information (1 point)
The User will ensure that transportation options information is distributed to new employees during the
hiring and orientation process.
Citywide TDM Program (2 points)
The transportation coordinator will meet with the citywide TOM programs outreach staff on a regular
basis (at least annually) and participate in at least one event held by the citywide TOM program (if
available).

TOM in Leases and Purchase Agreements (5 points)
The lease agreement will bind the User to provide the ongoing TDM services outlined in this TDM Plan.
Ride-matching Services {1 point)
The User will provide a ride-matching service to staff or encourage new staff to use existing ride-matching
platforms such as Waze or Uber Pool. An enclosed bulletin board at the transit shelter will be installed as
a promotional area for ride sharing services and a place where staff can seek carpoolers who take similar
routes to work.
Marketing and Outreach (1 Point)
This strategy will ensure that commuters are educated about the transportation programs and services
available to them and encourage sustainable travel choices on an ongoing manner.
No less than once per year, the User will hold an event at the site that includes food trucks or barbeques
brought in by the company. The event will promote all forms of alternative travel but will be called the
"Carpool Cookout" with commuters specifically encouraged to get to know one another, learn where each
other live and find a carpooling companion.
The User conducts morning meetings at its employment locations, including locations such as the project
site, even though there is not a building. Drivers gather at least weekly and are briefed on safety. At the
project site, the meeting will be held near the transit shelter and bike lockers, which serves as the focal
point of alternative transportation. As noted above, the transit shelter will contain a display case/kiosk
with information about available transportation options. Managers will use the same meetings as an
opportunity to verbally remind drivers about their travel options and encourage them to commute using
sustainable travel modes.
2.5 Monitoring and Implementation
To ensure that TDM strategies continue throughout the life of the project, requirements will be
incorporated into the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R) of the property and into the User
lease agreements. It will clarify any obligation to fund and implement the programs and to adhere to
reporting requirements. User may be subject to financial penalties if targets are not met.
Commute surveys will be distributed to employees every two years following the baseline survey which
will be conducted within 12 months of occupancy reaching 75 percent or within 18 months of initial
occupancy, whichever occurs first. The developer will provide a copy of the signed tease that stipulates
that the employer will administer employee commute surveys on the same schedule.
ln addition, the developer acknowledges the interim and final alternative mode share goals, listed below
in Table 3, that the development is required to achieve. Should the goals not be achieved, the
transportation coordinator agrees to work with the citywide program to identify and implement
additional measures suitable to the project site.

The parking lot will have 308 stalls maximum which will accommodate a maximum parking lot utilization
rate of 75% or 231 delivery vans. Trip generation has been based on the User's "Megacycle" logistical
profile. Trip distribution is based on Figure 10B of Carlsbad Oaks North Traffic Study Local Facilities
Management Plan (2002) for commuter trips and the location of the nearby distribution centers, which
the lot will serve on Loker Avenue and Business Park Drive.
1.1 Site Operation
The lot will operate as storage facility for delivery vans, staff will arrive on site and swap personal vehicles
with delivery vans and head to the distribution center on Business Park Drive or Loker Avenue. At the end
of the shift they will return the van to the parking lot (from the distribution center) and collect their
personal vehicle. Inbound and outbound non-peak hour project trips will be generated.
2. LOCAL MOBILITY ANALYSIS
2.1 Report Category and Trip Generation
The project trip generation has been derived by using the "Megacycle" logistics profile that the User has
in place for delivery services. Delivery operations occur between 09:00 AM -09:30 PM for distribution of
goods to customers between 11:00 AM and 09:00PM. Delivery employees would commute to the
proposed parking site in their personal vehicles, park, pick-up a delivery van, drive to existing nearby
distribution centers to load packages for the entire day, make deliveries, return to the parking site, drop
off a delivery van, and exit site in personal vehicles. Delivery operations at the existing distribution
centers begin at 10:00 AM and end at 11:30 AM, with delivery vans loading/departing from the centers at
a rate of no more than 120 vans every 30 minutes to facilitate a regulated traffic flow into the surrounding
roadway network. This departure window is designed to reduce impacts during the typical morning
commuter peak hours and improve delivery efficiencies. Delivery vans return to the parking site between
7:00 PM and 9:00 PM.
At the project site, the same workforce that arrives in personal vehicles and departs in a van in the
morning (between 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM) is the same workforce that drops the van off and leaves again
(in personal vehicles) in the evening (between 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM). Therefore, there is essentially
only one shift per day.
Employee Average Daily Trips (ADT) will be 924 trips consisting of 462 inbound and 462 outbound per day.
This in turn will consist of 231 private vehicles in and 231 vans out in the morning and 231 vans in and 231
private vehicles out in the evening. Table 1 shows the 75% daily trip profile summary. The raw data
provided is shown in Attachment B with the site operating at 69% capacity or 212 delivery vans. It is our
understanding that this is the typical utilization for the site. However, for a conservative assessment we
have assumed a 75% utilization rate or 231 delivery vans. Any more than this would lead to inefficiencies
as employees would be required to drive vans out of spaces before driving in with their private vehicles
at the beginning of the shift. This would create unnecessary blocking of the parking aisles and potential
delivery delay to customers. Attachment C shows trip generation based on a maximum 75% capacity. This
methodology was discussed and agreed with City staff during scoping discussions.

Table 1 shows that there will be no project impact during the peak hours. During scoping discussions, it
was agreed that the project peak hours should be assessed. Based on the typical daily trip profile applied
to a 75% utilization, as shown in Table 1 the project peak hours are:
• 09:30 AM to 10:30 AM
• 08:00 PM to 09:00 PM
Table 1 shows that there will be 347 project trips in the AM project peak hour (202 inbound and 145
outbound). In the PM project peak hour there will be 312 project trips (152 inbound and 116 outbound).
Table 2 shows the project trip generation which is comparable to the typical daily in-out t rip profile
provided by the User summarized in Table 1.

STC understands that the proposed auto storage land use is consistent with the City of Carlsbad General
Plan. The project will generate below 1,000 Average Daily Trips (ADT). A Level Ill TIA is required based on
Table 1 of the City of Carlsbad's Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines (April 2018). A Level Ill TIA
includes the following elements:

The following sections describe the LMA elements in more detail.
2.2 Multi-Modal Level of Service (MMLOS}
A Level 3 TIA requires a Multi-Modal level of Service (MMLOS) analysis for pedestrian, bike and transit
modes of travel. MMLOS assigns a letter "grade" for these modes of travel. The City's General Plan
establishes LOS Dor better on each roadway for each mode of travel that is subject to this standard.
STC will use the City's MMLOS tool to determine the MMLOS for Eagle Drive and Grey Hawk Court.
According to Figure 1 of the TIA guidelines, Eagle Drive is an "industrial Street" and Grey Hawk Court is a
"local/ neighborhood street". Industrial streets are subject to transit MMLOS analysis only and local
streets are subject to pedestrian and6 bicycle MMLOS analyses. The following segments and modes will
be assessed in the MMLOS analysis:
Eagle Drive
Transit MM LOS -The eastbound and westbound transit lines and stops on Palomar Airport Road (east
and west of the Eagle Drive intersection) will be assessed. These are approximately a ¼-mile from the
project site.
Pedestrian MMLOS -the sidewalk on the east side of Eagle Drive will be assessed along the project
frontage and between Grey Hawk Court and Palomar Airport Road to accommodate pedestrian routes to
the transit stops.
Bicycle MM LOS -Eagle Drive is classified as an "industrial street" and therefore not subject to Bicycle
MM LOS analysis.
Grey Hawk Court
Transit MMLOS-Grey Hawk Court is classified as a "local/ neighborhood street" which are not subject to
transit MM LOS.
Pedestrian MM LOS-the sidewalk on the north side of Grey Hawk Court fronting the project site will be
assessed.
Bicycle MMLOS-The eastbound and westbound street segments on Grey Hawk Court between the Eagle
Drive intersection and the project driveway will be assessed. Both directions provide access to the bike
lanes on Eagle Drive.
5980 Eagle Drive, Carlsbad LMA, TOM & VMT Scoping Memo 5
(
'
\
Palomar Airport Road
Palomar Airport Road is not part of the project frontage but subject to pedestrian MMLOS as sidewalk is
used to the eastbound and westbound transit stops. The following Palomar Airport Road segments will
be assessed for pedestrian MMLOS:
• The sidewalk on the north side or Palomar Airport Road between Eagle Drive and the westbound
transit stop.
• The sidewalk on the south side of Palomar Airport Road between Eagle Drive and the eastbound
transit stop.
2.3 Trip Distribution and Assignment
A project distribution and assignment analysis has been carried out to determine the study area. The
distribution for commuter trips was based on Figure 10B of the Carlsbad Oaks North Traffic Study Local
Facilities Management Plan (2002} as shown in Attachment 0. Proposed distribution proportions and trip
assignments are shown on Figures 2 through 6 listed below and on the following pages.
• Figure 2 Project-Peak Hour Personal Vehicle Trip Distribution
• Figure 3 Project Peak Hour Van Trip Distribution
• Figure 4 Project-Peak Hour Personal Vehicle Trip Distribution
• Figure 5 Project Peak Hour Van Trip Assignment
• Figure 6 Total Project Peak Hour Trip Assignments & Daily Project Trips
Figure 2 through Figure 6 show that 71% of the van trips will serve the Business Park Drive distribution
center and 29% will serve the Loker Avenue distribution center.
To comply with Mobility Element Policy 3-P.ll, if a project adds 110 ADT or 11 peak hour one-directional
trips to a roadway facility that is already exempt from vehicular level of service standards, it will be subject
to implementing TOM and TSM strategies. The Palomar Airport Road segment between El Camino Real
and Melrose Drive is listed as one of the exempt facilities in the Mobility Element. Figure 6 shows that the
project will add 171 trips in each direction on to Palomar Airport Road west of Melrose Drive. The TOM
plan will be prepared to comply with the TOM Ordinance and will meet TOM requirements. To meet TSM
requirements, the project will pay for the installation of one traffic signal controller.

2.4 Signalized and Unsignalized Intersection Analysis
In accordance with page 9 and page 21 of the City's TIA guidelines, the following study area intersections
will be analyzed:
Study Area Intersections
• Eagle Drive and Lionshead Avenue -Unsignalized
• Eagle Drive and Tiger Run Court/ Project Driveway -Unsignalized
• Eagle Drive/ Paseo Valindo and Palomar Airport Road -Signalized
Four intersections were considered for analysis the three intersections mentioned above and Eagle Drive
at Grey Hawk Court, but only three meet the criteria for evaluation. The intersection analyses will conform
with section 7.1 and section 7.2 of the City's TIA guidelines. The unsignalized intersections will be subject
to signal warrant analyses and MUTCD-CA methodology will be applied. The signalized intersection will
be subject to a queue and storage analysis based on the following criteria:
• Left turn queue assessment: Compare the left turn volume with the length of the left turn
pocket(s). A general rule of thumb of one foot per left turning vehicle per lane may be used for
this analysis.
• Left turn volume: If the left turn volume exceeds 250 vehicles per hour, a second left turn lane is
recommended.
• Right turn volume: If the right turn volume exceeds 150 vehicles per hour, a dedicated right turn
lane is recommended.
STC will also carry out turn lane analysis for all turning movements on all approaches, subject to vehicular
level of service for the project peak hours (09:30 AM to 10:30 AM and 08:00 PM to 09:00 PM).
Study Area Roadway Segments
Roadway segments should be included in the study area when the segment has an increase in project
traffic equal to SO or more peak-hour trips in either direction of travel. Table 1 shows that there will be
no peak hour project trips and therefore evaluation of roadway segments is not required.
2.5 Study Area Map
Figure 2 shows the proposed study area which consists of the intersections listed in Section 2.4.
2.6 Signal Warrant Analysis
Two signal warrant analyses will be carried out at the following unsignalized intersections:
• Eagle Drive and lionshead Avenue
• Eagle Drive and Tiger Run Court/ Project Driveway
2. 7 Non-Peak Hour Roadway Segment Analysis
Level of service project peak hour roadway segment analysis is required where SO or more project trips
are added to a segment in a single direction of travel. The roadway segment analysis will be carried out at
the following segments:
• Eagle Drive between Palomar Airport Road and lionshead Road
• lionshead Avenue between Eagle Drive and Business Park Drive
5980 Eagle Drive, Carlsbad LMA, TOM & VMT Scoping Memo 12
(
(
'
• Palomar Airport Road between Melrose Drive and City limits
The segment analysis will make reference to the City of Carlsbad Service Volume Table Report (June 2020)
to inform the level of service thresholds and roadway segment capacity. Volumes on Palomar Airport Road
will be measured at each segment and averaged for comparison to the corridor capacity. Where
appropriate the analysis will also refer to the Street Segment Facility Performance Measures Approach
Technical Review (November 2019).
2.8 Analysis Scenarios
Existing Conditions Analysis is the required scenario for a Level Ill TIA. Study area traffic counts will be
collected on a neutral day (Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday). Study area roadway conditions, speed
limit signs and intersection geometry/ traffic controls will be identified. The location and types of bicycle
and pedestrian facilities within the study area will also be included. Findings of the field assessment and
data collection will be summarized in graphic form for the report.
The traffic count data will be used to derive the existing conditions analysis and project trips will be added
to the existing conditions to derive the existing plus project conditions.
2.9 Other Jurisdictional Impacts
As previously explained there will be no peak hour project impact on the surrounding road network. Figure
6 shows that 328 daily project trips will be distributed on Business Park Drive. This is located within the
City of Vista. Draft Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines state that intersection analysis is at the
discretion of the City of Vista Traffic Engineer. Correspondence with the City of Vista Traffic Engineer
shown in Attachment E explains that trips within the City of Vista do not need to be evaluated as they
would have been evaluated with the distribution center on Business Park Drive.
3. VMT ANALYSIS
As applicable based on the Carlsbad Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Analysis Guidelines (September 15,
2020) Section 3.3.5 Industrial Projects-states that the ITE Trip Generation manual can be used as a guide
in determining which projects are industrial versus other land use types. Pert he definition of Warehousing
(including high-cube warehouses, parcel hubs, fulfillment centers, and cold storage warehouses) which
this project is proposed to be used as an auto storage lot. Therefore, this project would qualify to fall
under the land use category of industrial use and use the designated thresholds of significance for this
type of land development project.
The project will generate less than 2,400 ADT. As addressed in scoping discussions, STC will use SANDAG
SB 743 VMT/employee maps and 2016 data for the relevant traffic analysis zone or census tract to derive
the project VMT and determine if there will be a potentially significant impact. The findings will be
presented in a technical memo under a separate cover.
4. PRELIMINARY TOM PLAN
The City's Transportation Demand Management Handbook (August 2019) requires a "Tier 3" TOM Plan
for projects that generate more than 245 daily trips. The TOM Plan will be organized into the following
four sections:
5980 Eagle Drive, Carlsbad LMA, TDM & VMT Scoping Memo 13
' '
'
• Existing Conditions and TOM Context
• Infrastructure TOM Selections
• Non-Infrastructure TOM Selections
• Monitoring and Implementation
The TOM Plan will comply with the requirements of the City of Carlsbad Mobility Element and with the
City's TOM Ordinance. 18 points of TOM strategies will be required for this project. Details on the
infrastructure and non-infrastructure strategies that will be implemented by the project will be provided
in the TOM Plan.
During scoping discussions with City staff on October S, 2020 concern was raised that a transit shelter for
use in conjunction with the Carlsbad Connector may not be appropriate as services have been suspended
or reduced during the COVlD-19 pandemic. However, STC understands that the shelter could still be
utilized by employees waiting to be picked up, for ride-sharing services and taxi services such as Uber or
Lyft.
It is a pleasure to provide this LMA scoping memo to the City of Carlsbad. We are happy to discuss our
findings and recommendations further to support your review. Please feel free to contact me or Phil by
phone or email.
Sincerely,
STC Traffic

RE: Amazon Distribution Center
Thursday, November 12, 2020 11:55:05 AM
Since the traffic impacts from the Amazon Distribution Center within the City of Vista would have
been evaluated with the Amazon Distribution Center itself, you do not need to evaluate the trips
within the City of Vista as part of the Carlsbad parking lot.
Thanks!

Hi Sam-
We are currently involved in writing up a TIA study for a van storage lot in the City of Carlsbad. The
vans will drive over to Business Park Drive in the City of Vista to load up there vans during non-peak
hours (9:30-10:30 AM inbound and 8-9 PM outbound). Based on our trip distribution we are
assuming that no more then 164 trips would use Business Park Drive during either of these non-peak
hours. Based on your City guidelines I do not see that we are required to study any road segments
or intersections that fall within your jurisdiction, but wanted to make sure I double-checked with you
first before moving ahead on the project. If you would please verify would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Existing Infrastructure
Pedestrian; Sidewalk is provided on the north side of Grey Hawk Court and on the east side of Eagle Drive. Sidewalks are consistently 5 feet wide
or greater on both streets. Sidewalk is uninterrupted between the site and the bus stops on Palomar Airport Road providing pedestrian access to
transit services. Grey Hawk Court operates at pedestrian level of service (LOS) B. Eagle Drive is classified as an industrial street, which is subject to
level of service standards for vehicles and transit. The site access will cons.st of the east leg of the Eagle Drive/ Tiger Run Court uns1gnalized
intersect<on. Bike: Class II Bike Lanes are provided in both directions on both Eagle Drive. There are no bicycle facil1t1es on Grey Hawk Court and
the street is classified as a local/neighborhood street in the City of Carlsbad Mobility Element. Grey Hawk Court currently operates at bicycle LOS

Appendix D provides a terrain view of the project site and vicinity and elevation profiles for Eagle Drive and Grey Hawk Court. Appendix
E shows the street views from the project driveways on Eagle Drive and Grey Hawk Court.
Appendix D also shows that the elevation changes on £agle Drive may discourage cycling and walking to or from the site. In contrast
the sidewalk and bike lane provision as well as 5treet lighting may encourage active and alternative modes of travel.

There are limited project 5pecific and neighboring amenities within a S•minute walk or¼ mile of the project site. The nearest local amenities
at the Carlsbad Ranch Market on the northwest comer of Palomar Airport Road and Business Park Drive. These are approximately¾ mile or
a 15-minute walk from the project site. Uninterrupted sidewalk is provided between the project site and Carlsbad Ranch Market. The
location of Carlsbad Ranch Market is shown in Figure 1 of the TOM Plan. The following amenities are provided:
• Six takeout/ delivery options

C1rl1bad rnM Handbook
Table 2 of the TDM Plan shows the arrival and departure profile for the parking lot on a typical day. The typical daily shift pattern is as follows:
• from 9am-11am (start) through 7pm-1Dpm (finish)
Due to the nature of the shift pattern it is likely that most staff employed will be full time or staff will work full days.
The site is currently vacant and commute patterns will be obtained from the surveys which will be undertaken within 12 months of reaching 75%
occupancy.
SECTION IV: Infrastructure TDM Selections
The developer will work with the TA to determine infrastructure strategies applicable to the site and
the appropriate placement of TOM infrastructure.
Please reference Table 2-4 Menu of TDM Strategies, Part I: Infrastructure found in the Non-
Residential Developer TOM Plan Guidelines within the TOM handbook for infrastructure strategies
and points. An average new development is required to achieve a total of 18 points while a
redevelopment/tenant improvement is required to achieve 9 points. Required strategies add 4 points
towards the total required number of points. New developments must achieve a minimum of 6
points through infrastructure strategies unless otherwise agreed upon with city staff. Tenant
improvement projects are eligible to achieve all required points in Part IT.
In case ofa tenant improvement, if the tenant has access to any infrastructure amenity below, the
tenant can claim that amenity in their plan unless that amenity does not meet minimum standards
or is, on average, fully utilized, such as two carpool spaces that are both occupied on most
weekdays. The capacity of an existing infrastructure amenity will need to be evaluated at the time
the strategy is proposed.
Points not earned through infrastructure strategies will be expected to be earned in Part 11.
Reference Part II strategies to ensure that the appropriate infrastructure is selected to support

A 12 feet wide passenger loading zone approximately 40 feet m length, long enough for 2 cars to wait in line and for the Carlsbad
Connector to stop. Figure 3 of the TOM Plan shows the turning template for a conventional school bus which represents the design
vehicle for the Carlsbad Connector vans. The figure shows that the Carlsbad Connector bus is able to navigate around the parking islands
closest to the entrance. The loading zone will be co-located with the transit shelter, secure bike parking and carpool parking spaces.

The transit shelter and loading zone is considered innovative as ,twill not be limited to bus services It will provide a convenient waiting space
for users of ride-hailing services such as the Carlsbad Connector or Uber/ Lyft. It also provides the opportunity for staff to be dropped at the
loading zone in a timely manner. This is ideal for single car households who carpool to work. Services such as uber pool could be utilized by
staff traveling to/ from the same location. This strategy will be used 1n conjunction with the User's ride•matching service.
As explained earlier, the shelter will be a comfortable waiting space for employees and contain a display case/ kiosk with information about
available transportation options at the trans,t shelter. Information will be reviewed quarterly ond updated as needed. While the Carlsbad
Connector service is temporarily suspended due to a reduction in Coaster rail services as a result of COVID-19, STC understands that the
service managers will attempt to re"launch the service once Coaster schedules return to normal.

would have likely been reduced by constructing and providing the listed infrastructure strategies.
The developer also acknowledges that commitments to implement additional TDM strategies and
monitor and report on those strategies must be made prior to occupancy. These commitments can be
made by completing Part II of this document and obtaining subsequent approval of the proposed
strategies and monitoring plan.

PART II: Non-Infrastructure TDM Strategies, Implementation and
Monitoring Plan
Submission Date:
This section must be completed and approved prior to occupancy.
SECTION I: Non-Infrastructure TOM Selections
The developer will work with the TA to determine strategies applicable to the site.
Please reference Table 2-5 Menu of TDM Strategies, Part II: Non-Infrastructure found in the
Developer TOM Plan Guidelines within the TOM handbook for relevant infrastructure strategies
and points. It is expected that Part II will contain a sufficient number of strategies to earn the
remaining required points not earned through infrastructure strategies. A total of 18 points is
required from Part I and Part II combined for new developments and 9 points for
redevelopments/tenant improvements. Required strategies add 4 points towards the required total.
The non-infrastructure strategies are organized into the following categories: amenities, policies,
developer/employer programs, employer programs, partnerships and innovation. A well-rounded,
effective and sustainable TOM plan should include strategies from multiple categories and be
applicable to the anticipated workforce and commute patterns.
Check the box to the left of the strategy if it will be included in the development. Provide
information as requested in the box below the strategy. Additionally, indicate the points requested
for the strategy. Refer to the Carlsbad TOM Handbook for additional guidance and for the number
of points available for each strategy.
