Hotel President Valet Parking Management Plan: Figure 1: Site Plan Highlighting Vehicular Drop-Off and Pick-Up Location
Hotel President Valet Parking Management Plan: Figure 1: Site Plan Highlighting Vehicular Drop-Off and Pick-Up Location
OVERVIEW
All About Parking (AAP) will provide professional and qualified valets to oversee and manage all aspects of the
valet operation at the Hotel President located at 488 University Avenue. This includes providing proven systems
to maximize on-site garage capacity, extensive experience managing the off-site garage (330 Everett Avenue),
providing efficient pick-up and drop-off services, and ensuring successful safety policies. AAP will maintain
hourly records of car counts to better understand peak hours and trends in order to become more efficient.
STAFFING
AAP will have two (2) valets per shift and three (3) shifts per day to handle the operation (24/7 coverage). One
(1) part-time supervisor will oversee the operations.
ON-SITE PARKING
Hotel guests will drop-off and pick-up vehicles in front of the existing basement garage entry on Cowper Street
(see Figure 1). To minimize curbside congestion, AAP valets will receive vehicles at the drop-off location and
immediately move into the basement garage via the existing ramp. During peak drop-off and pick-up periods,
AAP valets will utilize all available on-site garage capacity for parking and queuing vehicles. Once the rush
subsides, AAP valets will move overflow vehicles to the off-site parking garage. AAP will prioritize
accommodating short-stay-guest vehicles on-site and long-stay-guest vehicles off-site. Protocols for guest vehicle
pick-up will ensure the Cowper drop-off and pick-up location does not remain occupied unnecessarily.

Memorandum
Date: April 14, 2020
SJ18-1826
This memorandum summarizes the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program that
the Hotel President is proposing to implement in cooperation with Palo Alto Transportation
Management Association (PATMA). The Hotel President will include 100 guestrooms and will have
30 full time equivalent (FTE) employees. The hotel will be primarily lodging accommodations with
no large meeting rooms, limited food services, and small gathering areas for hotel guests.
The hotel’s TDM program will primarily focus on the hotel employees; however, the hotel will also
provide alternative transportation information to their guests. Based on a parking analysis
prepared by Fehr & Peers (Attachment A), the number of guests driving and parking at the hotel
will be low and the remaining guests will use alternative modes of travel.
The maximum number of 24 employees occurs during the overlap between the day shift and the
afternoon shift. The hotel’s TDM goal is to have all employees use alternative modes of travel for
their commute to work to minimize parking demand.
The Hotel President will contract with PATMA to deliver a TDM program to their employees that
will achieve their TDM goal. Attachment B contains a proposal from the PATMA to provide TDM
services to the Hotel President. The Hotel President, with assistance from the PATMA, will deliver
the following TDM programs:

● Transit Passes – All hotel employees will be eligible for a 100% subsidy on Caltrain and
VTA passes.
● Ridesharing Subsidies – Hotel President employees will be supplied with one or more
ridesharing apps (Waze Carpool, Lyft, and Scoop) so that PATMA can provide monthly
subsidies and monitor use.
● Bicycle Storage – The Hotel President will provide secured storage for employee and
guest bicycles to promote bicycle commuting.
● Bike Loan Program – The PATMA will administer an e-bike and e-scooter loan-to-own
program for hotel employees that will be funded by the Hotel President.
● Guaranteed Ride Home - PATMA will provide hotel employees with Guaranteed Ride
Home service via Lyft.
● TDM Marketing and Education – PATMA will assist in the following activities.
In addition to these jointly administered programs for employees, the Hotel President will offer
the following guest TDM programs:
● Room Information - Place a “Getting Around Palo Alto” map/brochure in each guest
room.
Alex Stanford

● Staff Training – Desk staff will be trained to provide transit connection information for
Caltrain and VTA systems, as well as transit and shuttle options to local airports. Training
will also include the location of nearby carshare locations.
● Transit Passes - Provide pre-loaded Clipper Cards for purchase by guests for use on
Caltrain, VTA, and BART systems.
Attachment A
Hotel President Parking Demand Analysis
MEMORANDUM
SJ18-1826
This memorandum discusses the parking demand for the proposed renovation of the Hotel
President in Palo Alto. The historic six-story Hotel President currently features ground floor retail
space with 75 vacant lodging units on floors 2 through 6. The proposal is to restore the building
to its original use as a hotel with 100 guestrooms. The hotel will be primarily accommodations with
no large meeting rooms, limited food services, and small gathering areas for hotel guests. The
existing building has 11 basement-level parking spaces and hotel guest parking will be valet only
using the basement and a nearby off-site parking garage. The ground floor retail space will
continue to participate in the Downtown Palo Alto Parking District.
BACKGROUND
The City of Palo Alto Municipal Code shows that all uses (except residential) within the Downtown
Parking District are required to provide parking at the rate of one space per 250 square feet of
building area. Based on this requirement, the 100-room hotel should provide 152 parking spaces,
or 1.52 spaces per room. However, per California Health and Safety Code section 18962 (see
Attachment 1), for projects involving a historic resource, the local agency shall provide a 25%
reduction in the applicable parking requirement; this adjustment results in a baseline maximum of
114 parking spaces, or 1.14 spaces per room. This parking rate is substantially higher than most
industry standards and recent hotel parking data collected in the surrounding communities. This
memorandum compares the Downtown Palo Alto Parking District parking requirements for
commercial land uses to the following data:

Page 2 of 9
In addition to these two data sources, information on case studies for two local hotels is provided
– one operated by the company that will manage the proposed hotel and the other is located in
downtown Palo Alto.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The proposed project includes 100 guestrooms on floors 2 through 6. The ground floor will feature
the hotel lobby and retail space. The parking supply for the street level retail uses (9,761 square
feet) is satisfied by payments to the Parking Assessment District; therefore, it is not addressed in
this memorandum.
As stated previously, the existing building has 11 basement-level parking spaces, which will be
increased to 12 spaces, and is within the Downtown Palo Alto Parking District. The hotel will have
47 full time employees spread over three shifts. Since the hotel is primarily for accommodations,
the majority of the parking demand will be for guests and there will minimal demand for non-guest
parking. The hotel plans to provide valet parking only, utilizing the basement for parking and
staging and a nearby off-site parking garage.
PARKING RATES
Based on the City of Palo Alto Municipal Code, the majority of the jurisdiction requires the following
parking for hotels, motels, and inns:
Based on the description of the hotel, the proposed hotel would need to provide parking at the
rate of 1.0 spaces per room, or 100 parking spaces since there are no ancillary uses on the site.
GPCA Owner LLC
September 20, 2019
Page 3 of 9
However, in the Downtown District, the City code states that for all uses (except residential) parking
must be provided at one space per 250 square feet of space. There is no special treatment of hotels,
motels or inns within the Downtown District. Based on the building size (38,112 square feet), the
proposed hotel would be required to provide 152 parking spaces, or 1.52 spaces per room.
As stated previously, effective January 1, 2019, California Health and Safety Code section 18962
requires local agencies provide a 25% reduction in otherwise applicable parking requirements for
projects involving historic resources. The Hotel President is a historic resource; thus, the hotel
would be required to provide a maximum of 114 parking spaces, or 1.14 spaces per room.
The Institute of Transportation Engineers publishes the Parking Generation (4th Edition) manual that
provides data on the peak parking demands for various land uses based on empirical data collected
at locations throughout the United States. ITE presents data for three types of hotel uses including:
• Hotel (310) – large hotel with lots of supporting facilities – restaurants, large meeting
spaces, banquet rooms, etc.
• All Suites Hotel (311) – larger rooms often with seating areas and small kitchen facilities
• Business Hotel (312) – Modest support services for buffet breakfasts and small meeting
spaces.
Based on the description of the hotel, Business Hotel is the land use that best fits the proposed
hotel conversion. The ITE parking manual lists an average peak parking demand for Business Hotels
of 0.60 spaces per room. The 85th percentile peak demand for all sites surveyed is 0.75 spaces per
room. Therefore, a relatively conservative parking demand for a typical Business Hotel would range
between 0.60 and 0.75 spaces per room.
While ITE provides parking demand rates base on multiple sites throughout the United States, ITE
recommends that collecting local survey data is a more desirable means to account for local
conditions and travel behavior. Recently, the City of Mountain View had three hotel parking
demand studies prepared as a part of a hotel entitlement in the North Bayshore planning area. The
three studies were prepared by three different transportation engineering firms. The firms that
prepared the reports were:
GPCA Owner LLC
September 20, 2019
Page 4 of 9
Each firm conducted surveys at the hotels including both weekdays and weekends to determine
the peak parking demand. The surveys were conducted in late 2016 and early 2017. Table 1 shows
a comparison of the ITE Business Hotel parking demand rate and surveys of local hotels, as well as
the City of Palo Alto parking requirements. The surveyed hotel parking demand rates fell into a
range from 0.42 to 0.80 spaces per room.
Transportation Network Companies (TNC), such as Uber and Lyft, are changing how we travel.
Hotels are reporting a trend where travelers elect to use TNCs over rental cars when traveling by
air. The use of TNCs has a direct impact of reducing hotel parking demand. While the surveys
conducted for the City of Mountain View captures some of this behavioral change, TNC use
continues to increase and, therefore, it is likely that hotel parking demand may continue to decline.

CASE STUDIES
The proposed hotel project in Palo Alto will be operated by the same company as the Graduate
Hotel located in Berkeley, California. The Graduate Hotel – Berkeley has 144 rooms and valet parking
for 44 vehicles. The hotel has a restaurant that serves hotel patrons and is open to the public. Fehr
& Peers was provided parking data from the Graduate Hotel – Berkeley including the daily valet
guest parking demand for the month of August 2018 and monthly parking revenue data for 2017.
The daily charge for valet parking is $35/night. Based on the 2017 parking revenue data, August
was the peak month for parking demand. Figure 1 shows the relative parking demand by month.
Figure 2 shows the daily parking demand for August 2018. The average weekday guest parking
demand was 26 vehicles and the average weekend guest parking demand was 25 vehicles. The
peak parking demand was 43 vehicles. The 85th percentile demand was 32 vehicles.
GPCA Owner LLC
September 20, 2019
Page 6 of 9
Based on the available data, the average guest parking demand rate was 0.17 spaces per room.
The peak guest parking demand rate was 0.30 spaces per room. Even when employee parking is
added in, the parking demand would be substantially below the ITE and surveyed parking demands.
The Nobu Hotel Epiphany is a 86-room hotel located in downtown Palo Alto, California. The hotel
has a restaurant that is available to hotel guests and is open to the public. All hotel guest parking
is provided via valet parking at a charge of $45/night. Fehr & Peers was provided some general
information on the valet parking demand from the company (All About Parking) that provides the
valet service at the hotel. The following information was provided:
The Garden Court Hotel is a 62-room boutique hotel located in downtown Palo Alto, California
adjacent to the project site. The Garden Court has a number of on-site amenities including a public
restaurant & bar and meeting/banquet facilities. The hotel has 60 on-site valet parking spaces that
is available to hotel guests and the public for a cost of $28 per day/night. While the proposed hotel
will not provide a public restaurant or meeting/banquet rooms, Fehr & Peers staff made
observations of the on-site valet parking demand during the day on November 24th and in the
evening of December 12th. These observations showed a very low parking demand during the day
of 5 vehicles and in the evening 10 vehicles. Additional discussion on these observations below.
The Stanford Park Hotel is a 162-room hotel located in Menlo Park, California on El Camino Real
near the Palo Alto city limits. The hotel has a public restaurant, meeting rooms, and can host events
up to 100 guests. The Stanford Park Hotel has 176 parking spaces in a single surface parking lot.
The hotel parking is free and guests may self-park or use a valet service during limited hours of the
day. One transportation amenity at the hotel, is provision of a car service (pick up/drop off) to
locations within 3 miles of the hotel.
Fehr & Peers staff made observations of the on-site parking demand during the day on November
24th and in the evening of December 12th. The peak demand of 77 vehicles was observed mid-day
when the restaurant was open. The demand in the evening was 59 vehicles when the restaurant
was closed. Additional discussion on these observations below.
The Hotel De Anza is a 100-room hotel located in downtown San Jose, California. The hotel has a
public restaurant, meeting rooms, and a ballroom for events. The Hotel De Anza only provides valet
parking for hotel guests. Events use public parking surrounding the hotel. The valet services have
approximately 50 parking spaces. Twelve spaces are located adjacent to the building and there are
37 reserved spaces in a public parking structure located approximately three blocks (1,200 feet)
from the hotel lobby. The spaces located next to the building are used for drop off and pick up of
vehicles and long-term vehicle parking occurs in the parking structure. The hotel charges $36 per
night/day. Guests can also use the valet parking for visitors at a cost of $12 per hour with a
maximum of $36.
GPCA Owner LLC
September 20, 2019
Page 8 of 9
Fehr & Peers staff made observations of the on-site parking demand during the day and evening
on December 13th. The peak demand occurred in the evening when a total of 26 vehicles was
observed in both parking areas. Additional discussion on these observations below.
Table 2 summarizes the information collected by Fehr & Peers on the five case study hotels that
are either located in or near Palo Alto or have similar operational characteristics to the propose
hotel conversion project. Four of the hotels provide valet parking for hotel guests with no self-park
option. The Stanford Park Hotel provides free parking and allows self-park. The valet parking
operations presented challenges for extensive surveys; therefore, data was collected by
observations, available financial data, and contact with operators.
• Valet parking spaces is provided at 0.97 spaces per room to 0.31 spaces per room
• Valet parking demand ranged between 0.39 spaces per room to 0.19 spaces per room (the
November/December data was adjusted to the peak month June, July, August)
The data for the Stanford Park Hotel was very consistent with the data summarized in Table 1 for
other local self-park hotels with free parking and located outside downtown areas where there is
access to a wide number of amenities including restaurants and bars.
CONCLUSIONS
• Due to the limited land use categories included in the City of Palo Alto’s Downtown Parking
District, the hotel use is considered a commercial use and, as a historic resource, could be
required to provide no more than 114 parking spaces for 100 rooms (1.14 spaces per room).
• This required parking supply is substantially higher than the actual parking demand
expected based on industry standards and locally surveyed parking demands for hotels. A
more appropriate rate based on available surveyed data (presented in Table 1) would be in
the range of 0.60 to 0.75 spaces per room, or 60 to 75 spaces.

1 - Observations made by Fehr & Peers staff on Wednesday, November 28th; Wednesday, December 12th; or Thursday, December 13th.
2 - Public restaurant on hotel property may account for mid-day peak. Typically, evening is the highest parking demand for hotels.
3 - Valet parking is for hotel guests. Restaurant and event parking utilizes surrounding public garages.
4 – Analysis based on financial data using total daily parking receipts for the month of August 2018, assumes all vehicles parked at one time.
5 -Typical daily parking minimums and maximums provided by valet operator at hotel.
6 – Seasonal adjustment for November/December counts take from the ULI Shared Parking analysis methodology.
• Our review of hotels located in downtowns with valet only parking shows that the parking
demand and associated supply would lower the demand at locally surveyed hotels that
offer free, self-park services. Therefore, for the Hotel President’s proposed valet parking
operation, a more appropriate rate based on the case study information (presented in
Table 2) would be in the range of 0.30 to 0.40 spaces per room, or 30 to 40 spaces.

● June, 2017, Council approval of 744 and 750 San Antonio Road hotels
● The approval requires the City’s Planning Director to approve a TDM plan with a list of
required elements (pages 20-21 of the PDF).
● The TDM plan requires: Membership in TMA. 100% subsidized Caltrain/VTA passes for
employees. Cash incentives for carpool & bike for employees. Provide commuter bikes to
staff. Guaranteed Ride Home. Etc.
We also note that for the office building at 611 Cowper, that building must pay the TMA $25,000 per
year if it is non-compliant with the TDM plan.
Transit passes
President Hotel: # rooms 100
transit passes (13% per room from Sheraton) 13
Cost per year of 1 transit pass $1,800
total $23,400
Scoop/Waze, Lyft
Scoop/Waze pcnt of transit pass pgm 55% $12,870
Lyft pcnt of transit pass program 5% $1,170
From date of occupancy, PATMA will bill President Hotel (PH) for a minimum of $39,440 per year,
payable in two equal installments in the first and seventh months of the occupancy. Half-year billing
every six months will continue thereafter.
Transit passes:
● Transit passes were calculated from the TMA’s low-income transit pass program for workers
making less than $70,000 per year. The TMA will administer monthly transit passes for PH
staff making less than $70,000 per month. The TMA will also provide monthly transit passes
for President Hotel workers making more than $70,000 per year, billed a la carte. It is required
that PH assist their staff with limited English skills in accurately filling the TMA’s online transit
pass application.
Subsidized Waze Carpool and Scoop ridesharing (no income limit) and Lyft
● The TMA will select one or more ridesharing apps for PH to work with. It is required that PH
assist staff in registering for apps using PH work email addresses. This will allow the TMA to
report back trips taken and monthly subsidy cost.
● For Lyft, it is required that PH assist staff in registering to use Lyft using a PH work email
address. The Lyft program is provided for after-hours commuting for low-income workers. The
TMA will also provide Lyft service to PH staff making more than $70,000 per year, billed a la
carte.
Bike program
● The TMA will administer an ebike and escooter loan-to-own program. PH will pay a la carte.
Billing
● Besides the two annual minimum payments, the TMA will bill PH once per month for a la carte
services, payable net 15.
● TMA will charge PH an annual administration fee of $2,000 for program implementation, GRH,
billing/bookkeeping/metrics, and report generation.
Regards,
Steve Raney
Executive Director, PATMA
