16 PARKING STUDY UPDATE Victoria International Ballet Academy 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan, Ontario OCTOBER 2013

17 October 10, 2013 MRS. NADIA PORUKOVA Development Transportation Engineering City of Vaughan 2141 Major Mackenzie Drive Vaughan, ON L6A 1T1 Re: Victoria International Ballet Academy, 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study Update Dear Mrs. Porukova, This letter provides a response to comments received from the City of Vaughan, dated September 4, 2013 (See Attachment 1) on the Parking Study prepared by Trans-Plan Inc., dated June 5, 2013, for Victoria International Ballet Academy located at 7 Bradwick Drive in Vaughan. This letter is an addendum to our previously submitted Parking Study. As requested by the City, this letter includes: 1) Results for a second parking utilization survey on a Saturday for the site, as well as on adjacent properties willing to share parking 2) A revised site plan that meets the 6.0m width for a fire route and for two-way parking aisles. Parking Utilization Survey at 7 Bradwick Drive In addition to the parking utilization survey for 7 Bradwick Drive conducted on Saturday April 27, 2013, Trans-Plan conducted a second parking survey on Saturday September 14, 2013 from 9:30am to 1:30pm. The additional properties on Bradwick Drive willing to share parking were included in the survey. The detailed survey results are provided in Attachment 2 and results for parking demands at 7 Bradwick Drive are summarized in Table ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TRANS-PLAN TRANSPORTATION INC. 1

Similar to the results of the first survey conducted on a Saturday, the peak parking demand for the site occurred at 12:00pm. The maximum parking demand was 28 spaces with 17 vehicles parked on-site, one vehicle parked at #5 Bradwick Drive (Masterchrome), six vehicles parked at #9 Bradwick Drive (Oakridge Kitchens), and four vehicles parked on-street. This count excludes the one vehicle parked at #5 Bradwick Drive and the two vehicles parked at #9 Bradwick Drive throughout the day that were unrelated to the dance school land use. An additional seven vehicles were parked on-street during the survey (at 12:00pm) that were generated by #6A and #6B Bradwick Drive (Aspirals Gymnastics and North Tennis Academy). The maximum observed parking demands for the first and second survey are comparable at 33 and 28 spaces, respectively. Given the survey results, and given that the tenant confirmed that both survey days are considered to be busy Saturdays, the application of an additional safety factor for parking demand (as was suggested by the City s comments) is not necessary ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TRANS-PLAN TRANSPORTATION INC. 2

19 Site Plan and Parking Supply The existing site plan has a supply of 21 parking spaces and could be modified by adding an additional 3 spaces at the rear of the site for a total supply of 24 spaces (including one accessible parking space). The proposed modifications would still allow for the minimum 6.0m required for the fire route and a minimum parking aisle width of 6.0m for two-way traffic (at the sides and rear of the building). The site plan is shown in Attachment 3. The additional demand of 9 parking spaces for the dance school (observed maximum demands for 33 spaces vs. an on-site supply of 24 spaces) could be accommodated by a shared parking agreement with the neighbouring properties. Parking Utilization Survey at Adjacent Properties Results of the parking utilization surveys at the adjacent properties, conducted by Trans-Plan on September 14, 2013 from 9:30am to 1:30pm, are summarized in Table 2. The parking supply for each property is also provided.

Results of the parking utilization surveys at the adjacent lots indicate a surplus of 97 parking spaces for all lots combined. The additional parking demands for 9 spaces at the dance school could easily be accommodated on a Saturday by a shared parking arrangement. It is our understanding that the owner will be submitting letters to the City from the above property owners that agree to share parking with the dance school ALL RIGHTS RESERVED TRANS-PLAN TRANSPORTATION INC. 3

20 I trust that the previously submitted Parking Study and this letter update are sufficient to allow the owner / tenant to obtain the necessary approvals requested to permit the dance school land use for the site at 7 Bradwick Drive.

22 RECEIVED September 4, 2013 VAUGHAN COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT DATE: September 4, 2013 TO: FROM: Todd Coles, Committee of Adjustment Nadia Porukova, Development/Transportation Engineering MEETING DATE: September 12, 2013 OWNER: CONCORD CENTRE FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS FILE(S): Minor Variance Application A205/13 Location: Part of Lot 9, Concession 3 (Lot 6, Registered Plan No. 65M-2049 municipally known as 7 Bradwick Drive, Concord) Proposal 1. To permit a total of 35 parking spaces. 2. To permit a minimum parking aisle width of 3.6 metres for oneway traffic. By-Law Requirements: Comments: 1. A minimum of 161 parking spaces are required 11.0 spaces per 100m2 of GFA). 2. A minimum parking aisle width of 4.0 metres is required for oneway traffic. The proposal is to permit 35 parking spaces over the City by-law 1-88 requirement of 161 parking spaces. The deficiency is 126 parking spaces. The applicant has provided Parking Study, dated June 5, 2013 prepared by Trans-Plan Inc. The Development /Transportation Engineering Department has reviewed the parking study and offers the following comments: On-street parking cannot be relied upon to substitute for a large deficiency such as this, particularly when the site is only supplying 14% of the overall parking demand. The Site plan modifications to accommodate more parking on site (as per Exhibit 7) cannot be accepted as the minimum driveway width is not met (one-way wide). Please re-submit a revised site plan based on the by-law requirements. Shared parking agreement between seven properties has been mentioned in the study however only one letter of agreement is provided (from 391 Bradwick Drive). Please submit all agreement letters along with parking utilization studies showing how much surplus parking can be each accommodated off-site. Also the parking utilization study was only conducted on one Saturday (peak day) and no safety factor is mentioned for busier Saturdays. Please conduct another study on at least one other Saturday on 7 Bradwick Drive and on all other adjacent properties willing to share parking. Accordingly, revised site plan, an updated parking study and mutual agreements for the shared parking are required. The Development/Transportation Engineering requests adjournment of Minor Variance Application A205/13, until such time that the applicant submits the required mutual agreements, revised site plan and parking study and the plan and report have been reviewed by the Development/Transportation Engineering Department. Condition(s): None.

48 PARKING STUDY Victoria International Ballet Academy 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan, Ontario JUNE 5, 2013

49 June 5, 2013 Mr. Benjamin Peleg PELEG S GROUP PROPERTY MANAGEMENT 819 Yonge Street, Unit 402 Thornhill, ON L3T 2C6 Re: Victoria International Ballet Academy, 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study Dear Mr. Peleg, TRANS-PLAN INC is pleased to submit this Parking Study in support of the site at 7 Bradwick Drive, currently occupied by the Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. The report includes the results of a three-day parking utilization survey at the site. Our findings indicate that the existing parking lot supply is sufficient during the weekdays. On Saturday, parking demands (with a peak demand of 33 spaces) exceed the available supply (of 22 spaces) and the additional vehicles park onstreet and in the adjacent lots. To address parking demands on Saturdays, potential parking solutions for the subject site include increasing the on-site parking supply through site plan modifications, utilizing on-street parking, entering into an agreement to share parking with neighbouring businesses, or a combination of these three solutions. Letters for shared parking arrangements have recently been obtained from seven neighbouring properties, which is more than sufficient to address parking for the site. Yours truly, Anil Seegobin, P.Eng. Associate Partner Engineer Trans-Plan Inc. Transportation Consultants Stamp cc: Shadi Hagag, President, Trans-Plan Inc.

51 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study 1. INTRODUCTION Trans-Plan Inc. has been retained to complete a Parking Study in support of the site at 7 Bradwick Drive, currently occupied by the Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. This report includes the following: a review of the existing land uses and a parking inventory for the site and on-street a review of site parking requirements in comparison to the on-site parking supply details of the methodology for three-day parking utilization surveys at the site survey results for peak parking demands on weekdays and Saturday potential modifications to the site plan to increase the parking supply parking recommendations for the site The site has recently changed land uses from a City of Vaughan F2 zone (industrial use) to an A2 zone (health spa / dance studio use). The City has requested a parking study for the redevelopment (including a three-day parking utilization survey) to demonstrate that the on-site and surrounding parking supply is sufficient for the land use and that the proposal does not create significant parking issues for the surrounding area. 2. LOCATION AND SITE CONTEXT The site, shown in Exhibit 1, is located at 7 Bradwick Drive in the southwest quadrant of the Dufferin Street and Langstaff Road intersection. Bradwick Drive is two-lane road that intersects with North Rivermede Road to the west of the site and terminates in a cul-de-sac to the east of the site. Details for the dance school and for the adjacent land uses are summarized in Table 1. Masterchrome Co. Ltd. And Oakridge Kitchens are located to the east and west of the site and Victorian Sheet Metal Manufacturing Inc. is located directly behind the site.

52 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study The remaining land uses in the study area mainly include manufacturing / industrial uses, banquet halls, and automotive repair companies. 3. PARKING INVENTORY 3.1 On-site The site plan by Markham High Tech Inc. / Architects is provided in Exhibit 2. The site plan shows 9 parking spaces in the front and 13 spaces in the rear of the building, for a total of 22 parking spaces. Trans-Plan conducted a parking inventory of the study area prior to commencing the parking surveys. The parking spaces are not marked in the paved area in the front. The rear of the lot is gravel. 3.2 On-street Parking is restricted on Bradwick Drive on both sides of the roadway, Monday to Fridays from 6:00am to 6:00pm. About 15 vehicles could park on-street on Bradwick Drive between North Rivermede Road and the termination point to the east. 4. PARKING SUPPLY AND REQUIREMENTS Based on information provided by the client, The City of Vaughan bases the site parking requirements on a Health Centre land use, requiring 11 spaces per 100 square metres of gross floor area (GFA) under Zoning By-law 1-88 (See Appendix A). A comparison between the site parking requirements and supply is shown in Table 2. Table 2 Site Parking Requirements and Proposed Supply Land Use Area Parking Requirement Existing (sq.ft.) (sq.m.) Rate (spaces / sq.m. GFA) Spaces Parking Supply Dance School 15,664 1, spaces per 100 sq.m Source: City of Vaughan Zoning By-law 1-88, 2012, Vol. 1 Based on the City of Vaughan Zoning By-law, the site requires 161 parking spaces. 22 parking spaces are provided on-site, which results in a deficiency of 139 spaces. However, a parking utilization study was conducted for the site to further understand parking activities for the dance school. 5. PARKING UTILIZATON SURVEYS 5.1 Survey Methodology From discussions with the tenant and owner of the site, although the dance school is open on weekdays from 9:00am to 8:00pm, the busiest times during the weekday are the late afternoon / evening period. Only one or two staff are parked on site in the weekday mornings and early afternoons. Saturdays are the busiest day of the week for dance classes. The surveys were conducted during the peak periods of the day. Details of the parking utilization surveys conducted by Trans-Plan are as follows: Conducted on Thursday April 25th and Friday April 26th from 4:00pm to 8:30pm and on Saturday April 27th from 9:00am to 2:30pm Measured parking demands on-site and in the surrounding area at 15-minute intervals admin@trans-plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Canada 2

53 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study Recorded walk and cycle trips to the site 5.2 Survey Results The survey results showing peak parking demand (maximum number of vehicles parked) for each day are shown in Table 3. The survey results, displayed at 15-minute intervals, are shown graphically in Exhibit 3 through Exhibit 5 and in tabular form in Appendix B. Photographs of on-site and on-street parking activities are provided in Exhibit 6. Table 3 Parking Utilization Survey Results, Peak Demands Day Peak Number of Vehicles Parked (spaces) Peak On-site Percent 15-minute 7 Bradwick Drive Adjacent Onstreet Demand Supply Parking Parking Utilization Period Parking Illegally Parking Lot Parked Lots (spaces) (spaces) Thursday 6:00pm % Friday 6:00pm % Saturday 12:00pm % The results for parking demand at the dance school are summarized as follows: On Thursday, parking demands peaked from 6:00pm to 6:15pm at 11 spaces. This results in 50 percent utilization of the parking lot. One vehicle parked in the adjacent lot at 9 Bradwick Drive; however, there were still available parking spaces at the site. On Friday, parking demands peaked from 6:00pm to 6:15pm at 13 spaces. This results in 59 percent utilization of the parking lot. Three vehicles parked in the adjacent lot at 9 Bradwick Drive; however, there were still available parking spaces at the site. On Saturday, parking demands peaked from 12:00pm to 12:15pm at 33 spaces. The spill-over parking occurred on-street (4 spaces) and in the adjacent lots: 9 spaces at #9 Bradwick Drive (in front and along the side of the building) and 1 space at #5 Bradwick Drive. The rear of the lot at the subject site was under-utilized. There were very few walk trips and no cycle trips to the site. On Saturdays, parking is permitted on Bradwick Drive during daytime hours. Approximately 15 spaces are available on-street for parking near to the site that could potentially accommodate the additional parking demands for the site. There were no other vehicles observed to be parked on Bradwick Drive that were related to activity at the other businesses on Saturday. The adjacent site at 5 Bradwick Drive (Masterchrome Co. Ltd. a manufacturing use) is generally open on Saturdays for deliveries only. Similarly, the site at 9 Bradwick Drive (Oakridge Kitchens a kitchen showroom) is only open on Saturdays by appointment only. Victorian Sheet Metal Manufacturing Inc. at 391 and 401 Bradwick Drive (to the rear of the site) is closed on Saturdays. Only one or two vehicles were parked at each of these properties during the surveys (unrelated to spill-over parking from the dance school). Any of these businesses could potentially accommodate the additional peak parking demand of 11 spaces for the school on a Saturday. admin@trans-plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Canada 3

54 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study 6. SITE PLAN MODIFICATIONS The parking areas of the site plan were reviewed to determine whether additional parking spaces could be added to increase the available parking supply. The potential modifications are shown in Exhibit 7 and described as follows: Seven parallel parking spaces were added along the west side of the building. The driving aisle would have to be shared with the adjacent site at 9 Bradwick Drive to maintain two-way traffic flow and the 6m fire truck access route. Another seven parallel parking spaces were added along the east side of the building. The driving aisle would have to be shared with the adjacent site at 5 Bradwick Drive to maintain two-way traffic flow and the 6m fire truck access route. Three parking spaces were added to the rear of the site. The 6m driving aisle is maintained. With the above parking area modifications, the available on-site parking supply would increase by 12 spaces (from 22 to 34 spaces). This would accommodate the peak parking demand of 33 spaces noted from the parking surveys that occurred on a Saturday. 7. CONCLUSIONS The Parking Utilization Study for the site at 7 Bradwick Drive in the City of Vaughan is summarized as follows: The existing building is currently occupied by Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. The existing parking supply does not meet the City of Vaughan Zoning By-law parking requirements and the City has requested a three-day parking utilization study to review parking activities at the site. A parking utilization survey for the site was conducted by Trans-Plan Inc. from April 25 to 27, 2013 on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday, measuring the number of vehicles parked at 15-minute intervals when dance classes were in session. On Thursday and Friday, the on-site parking supply accommodates the current parking demands. Therefore, there are no concerns for parking activity on weekdays. On Saturday, peak parking demands exceed the available supply by 11 spaces. Solutions to address parking demands on a Saturday are as follows: a) There are no on-street parking restrictions on Bradwick Drive on a Saturday. Some vehicles could parking on-street (for about an hour to attend classes) without creating parking issues in the surrounding area. b) The site plan could be modified to increase the parking supply by an additional 12 spaces, allowing all parking activities for the dance school to be contained on the site. Potential modifications are shown in Exhibit 7. c) The parking lots at the adjacent sites are under-utilized on a Saturday. If the site plan modifications to increase the on-site parking supply are not accepted by the City, the owner has entered into an agreement to share parking with neighbouring businesses on Saturdays to address on-site parking -plan.com admin@trans -plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Can 4

72 PARKING STUDY Victoria International Ballet Academy 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan, Ontario JUNE 5, 2013

73 June 5, 2013 Mr. Benjamin Peleg PELEG S GROUP PROPERTY MANAGEMENT 819 Yonge Street, Unit 402 Thornhill, ON L3T 2C6 Re: Victoria International Ballet Academy, 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study Dear Mr. Peleg, TRANS-PLAN INC is pleased to submit this Parking Study in support of the site at 7 Bradwick Drive, currently occupied by the Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. The report includes the results of a three-day parking utilization survey at the site. Our findings indicate that the existing parking lot supply is sufficient during the weekdays. On Saturday, parking demands (with a peak demand of 33 spaces) exceed the available supply (of 22 spaces) and the additional vehicles park onstreet and in the adjacent lots. To address parking demands on Saturdays, potential parking solutions for the subject site include increasing the on-site parking supply through site plan modifications, utilizing on-street parking, entering into an agreement to share parking with neighbouring businesses, or a combination of these three solutions. Letters for shared parking arrangements have recently been obtained from seven neighbouring properties, which is more than sufficient to address parking for the site. Yours truly, Anil Seegobin, P.Eng. Associate Partner Engineer Trans-Plan Inc. Transportation Consultants Stamp cc: Shadi Hagag, President, Trans-Plan Inc.

75 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study 1. INTRODUCTION Trans-Plan Inc. has been retained to complete a Parking Study in support of the site at 7 Bradwick Drive, currently occupied by the Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. This report includes the following: a review of the existing land uses and a parking inventory for the site and on-street a review of site parking requirements in comparison to the on-site parking supply details of the methodology for three-day parking utilization surveys at the site survey results for peak parking demands on weekdays and Saturday potential modifications to the site plan to increase the parking supply parking recommendations for the site The site has recently changed land uses from a City of Vaughan F2 zone (industrial use) to an A2 zone (health spa / dance studio use). The City has requested a parking study for the redevelopment (including a three-day parking utilization survey) to demonstrate that the on-site and surrounding parking supply is sufficient for the land use and that the proposal does not create significant parking issues for the surrounding area. 2. LOCATION AND SITE CONTEXT The site, shown in Exhibit 1, is located at 7 Bradwick Drive in the southwest quadrant of the Dufferin Street and Langstaff Road intersection. Bradwick Drive is two-lane road that intersects with North Rivermede Road to the west of the site and terminates in a cul-de-sac to the east of the site. Details for the dance school and for the adjacent land uses are summarized in Table 1. Masterchrome Co. Ltd. And Oakridge Kitchens are located to the east and west of the site and Victorian Sheet Metal Manufacturing Inc. is located directly behind the site.

76 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study The remaining land uses in the study area mainly include manufacturing / industrial uses, banquet halls, and automotive repair companies. 3. PARKING INVENTORY 3.1 On-site The site plan by Markham High Tech Inc. / Architects is provided in Exhibit 2. The site plan shows 9 parking spaces in the front and 13 spaces in the rear of the building, for a total of 22 parking spaces. Trans-Plan conducted a parking inventory of the study area prior to commencing the parking surveys. The parking spaces are not marked in the paved area in the front. The rear of the lot is gravel. 3.2 On-street Parking is restricted on Bradwick Drive on both sides of the roadway, Monday to Fridays from 6:00am to 6:00pm. About 15 vehicles could park on-street on Bradwick Drive between North Rivermede Road and the termination point to the east. 4. PARKING SUPPLY AND REQUIREMENTS Based on information provided by the client, The City of Vaughan bases the site parking requirements on a Health Centre land use, requiring 11 spaces per 100 square metres of gross floor area (GFA) under Zoning By-law 1-88 (See Appendix A). A comparison between the site parking requirements and supply is shown in Table 2. Table 2 Site Parking Requirements and Proposed Supply Land Use Area Parking Requirement Existing (sq.ft.) (sq.m.) Rate (spaces / sq.m. GFA) Spaces Parking Supply Dance School 15,664 1, spaces per 100 sq.m Source: City of Vaughan Zoning By-law 1-88, 2012, Vol. 1 Based on the City of Vaughan Zoning By-law, the site requires 161 parking spaces. 22 parking spaces are provided on-site, which results in a deficiency of 139 spaces. However, a parking utilization study was conducted for the site to further understand parking activities for the dance school. 5. PARKING UTILIZATON SURVEYS 5.1 Survey Methodology From discussions with the tenant and owner of the site, although the dance school is open on weekdays from 9:00am to 8:00pm, the busiest times during the weekday are the late afternoon / evening period. Only one or two staff are parked on site in the weekday mornings and early afternoons. Saturdays are the busiest day of the week for dance classes. The surveys were conducted during the peak periods of the day. Details of the parking utilization surveys conducted by Trans-Plan are as follows: Conducted on Thursday April 25th and Friday April 26th from 4:00pm to 8:30pm and on Saturday April 27th from 9:00am to 2:30pm Measured parking demands on-site and in the surrounding area at 15-minute intervals admin@trans-plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Canada 2

77 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study Recorded walk and cycle trips to the site 5.2 Survey Results The survey results showing peak parking demand (maximum number of vehicles parked) for each day are shown in Table 3. The survey results, displayed at 15-minute intervals, are shown graphically in Exhibit 3 through Exhibit 5 and in tabular form in Appendix B. Photographs of on-site and on-street parking activities are provided in Exhibit 6. Table 3 Parking Utilization Survey Results, Peak Demands Day Peak Number of Vehicles Parked (spaces) Peak On-site Percent 15-minute 7 Bradwick Drive Adjacent Onstreet Demand Supply Parking Parking Utilization Period Parking Illegally Parking Lot Parked Lots (spaces) (spaces) Thursday 6:00pm % Friday 6:00pm % Saturday 12:00pm % The results for parking demand at the dance school are summarized as follows: On Thursday, parking demands peaked from 6:00pm to 6:15pm at 11 spaces. This results in 50 percent utilization of the parking lot. One vehicle parked in the adjacent lot at 9 Bradwick Drive; however, there were still available parking spaces at the site. On Friday, parking demands peaked from 6:00pm to 6:15pm at 13 spaces. This results in 59 percent utilization of the parking lot. Three vehicles parked in the adjacent lot at 9 Bradwick Drive; however, there were still available parking spaces at the site. On Saturday, parking demands peaked from 12:00pm to 12:15pm at 33 spaces. The spill-over parking occurred on-street (4 spaces) and in the adjacent lots: 9 spaces at #9 Bradwick Drive (in front and along the side of the building) and 1 space at #5 Bradwick Drive. The rear of the lot at the subject site was under-utilized. There were very few walk trips and no cycle trips to the site. On Saturdays, parking is permitted on Bradwick Drive during daytime hours. Approximately 15 spaces are available on-street for parking near to the site that could potentially accommodate the additional parking demands for the site. There were no other vehicles observed to be parked on Bradwick Drive that were related to activity at the other businesses on Saturday. The adjacent site at 5 Bradwick Drive (Masterchrome Co. Ltd. a manufacturing use) is generally open on Saturdays for deliveries only. Similarly, the site at 9 Bradwick Drive (Oakridge Kitchens a kitchen showroom) is only open on Saturdays by appointment only. Victorian Sheet Metal Manufacturing Inc. at 391 and 401 Bradwick Drive (to the rear of the site) is closed on Saturdays. Only one or two vehicles were parked at each of these properties during the surveys (unrelated to spill-over parking from the dance school). Any of these businesses could potentially accommodate the additional peak parking demand of 11 spaces for the school on a Saturday. admin@trans-plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Canada 3

78 7 Bradwick Drive, City of Vaughan Parking Study 6. SITE PLAN MODIFICATIONS The parking areas of the site plan were reviewed to determine whether additional parking spaces could be added to increase the available parking supply. The potential modifications are shown in Exhibit 7 and described as follows: Five parallel parking spaces were added along the west side of the building. The driving aisle would have to be shared with the adjacent site at 9 Bradwick Drive to maintain two-way traffic flow and the 6m fire truck access route. Another five parallel parking spaces were added along the east side of the building. The driving aisle would have to be shared with the adjacent site at 5 Bradwick Drive to maintain two-way traffic flow and the 6m fire truck access route. Three parking spaces were added to the rear of the site. The 6m driving aisle is maintained. With the above parking area modifications, the available on-site parking supply would increase by 13 spaces (from 22 to 35 spaces). This would accommodate the peak parking demand of 33 spaces noted from the parking surveys that occurred on a Saturday. 7. CONCLUSIONS The Parking Utilization Study for the site at 7 Bradwick Drive in the City of Vaughan is summarized as follows: The existing building is currently occupied by Victoria International Ballet Academy as a dance school. The existing parking supply does not meet the City of Vaughan Zoning By-law parking requirements and the City has requested a three-day parking utilization study to review parking activities at the site. A parking utilization survey for the site was conducted by Trans-Plan Inc. from April 25 to 27, 2013 on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday, measuring the number of vehicles parked at 15-minute intervals when dance classes were in session. On Thursday and Friday, the on-site parking supply accommodates the current parking demands. Therefore, there are no concerns for parking activity on weekdays. On Saturday, peak parking demands exceed the available supply by 11 spaces. Solutions to address parking demands on a Saturday are as follows: a) There are no on-street parking restrictions on Bradwick Drive on a Saturday. Some vehicles could parking on-street (for about an hour to attend classes) without creating parking issues in the surrounding area. b) The site plan could be modified to increase the parking supply by an additional 13 spaces, allowing all parking activities for the dance school to be contained on the site. Potential modifications are shown in Exhibit 7. c) The parking lots at the adjacent sites are under-utilized on a Saturday. If the site plan modifications to increase the on-site parking supply are not accepted by the City, the owner has entered into an agreement to share parking with neighbouring businesses on Saturdays to address on-site parking admin@trans-plan.com Yonge Street, Toronto, ON M4S 3E2 Can 4
