It was assumed that the existing lots would not need alteration, but completion of the south lot original stall design, with addition of the CHC stalls would become the new acceptable total. We were shown a file copy of our original South Lot design, and told that the acceptable hospital -only parking stall total from that design was 185. Our computation of required new stalls for the Clinic Addition, based upon the new Construction area and Municipal Borough Code, Chapter #17.175, Table #1, was: 6,438gsf +200sf /stall = 33 stalls Therefore, our total required off - street stall count was 185 + 33 = 218 stalls. We were advised by the Owner to attempt to achieve as close as possible the 218 count by also re- thinking the existing areas across the entire Hospital site. The results of our initial effort were submitted to the Owner as 203 stalls, and a Waiver was subsequently granted for this count. Ten new stalls were added to the existing east lot. As this was produced in advance of final Site Design (for Construction Documents), and also prior to the Re -Bid procedure we underwent, the total stall count was reduced by various issues which arose. As part of the Re -Bid procedure, P&A was asked to eliminate as much of the new Parking Lot cost as possible, as this was identified as a substantial portion of the original competitive bid. This was accomplished by reduction in retaining wall material and scale, and by reduced use of costly drainage construction (sewer piping and manhole structures). The overall stall count in the revised design was also reduced from 203 to 197, and this was the count reflected in the set which received a Building Permit. The 197 count was further reduced by discovery during the Construction period of a Utility Easement on the west property line, and a subsequent decision to move the retaining wall away from the easement, reducing the lot stall count by a minimum 21 more stalls. The issue arose again based upon comment by a USDA official, discussing handicap - accessible stalls on the overall site. Prochaska & Associates was asked to reconsider the final stall count more formally for possible second Waiver application and the Property Survey was consulted for existing striping. An attempt was made to maximize stalls using the Borough Code stall requirements found in Table #5 of Chapter #17. It was determined this time that 200 stalls would be possible, if a few of the existing parking areas could be re- striped (east lot, center area, and north lot, adjacent to the hospital building). We had also been advised that a ruling by the Building Official would permit in the count such areas as vehicle drop -off areas under the Entry Canopy, ambulance vehicle parking at the Emergency Canopy, delivery vehicle near the Care Center west exit, and loading truck vehicle at the west dock area. Our most recent effort resulted in an improvement from the Permit Set document count of 197 to 200 stalls, and a permissable accessible stall count of 6 stalls. nal EXISTING /PROPOSED OTT- SIREET PARKING nGuRES coma NORM tot PARKING MINTING k NEW EAST LOT PARKING EXISTING Y NEW WEST LOT PARKING EXLTNG CENTER LOT PARING NEW SOUTH LOT PARING IOTA STAGS MIAOWING SUMNER 2009 PA/NO 35 STALLS W.RKEO (INCLUDING 444eUUNCE) 45 STAGS MARKED (W /SUt8LER 2005 RAVING) 28 STALLS POSSIBLE (W /SUWER 1003 PAVING) 0 STALLS POSSIBLE (INCLUDING B SIPPED STALLS) 85 S1ALL5 NARKED 200 STALLS MARKO OR POSSIBLE ACCESSING PATK NG STALLS RE0-G.
