The focus of this study will be on data collection. But KLJ also proposes creating a document that serves Bozeman with documentation of trends and general recommendations that can be a guide for the future. Our team is familiar with Don Shoup as a parking expert and his book The High Cost of Free Parking. We believe many of the principles that he espouses can be applied to downtown Bozeman. Recently, the City of Bozeman has been working toward a comprehensive downtown parking plan. The largest aspect of downtown parking is having a complete inventory and collecting parking usage data, which is what this study will achieve. Understanding the parking usage throughout all areas of downtown will paint a clear picture of where and when parking spaces are occupied. Looking at the data from the last two downtown parking studies conducted by WTI, we generally see an increase in parking utilization and typically the occupancy rates are highest at 1 PM and in the evening hours between 7 and 8 PM.

We helped complete the terminal expansion project. After the terminal expansion was constructed an evaluation of the existing parking lots was conducted. Parking at the Jackson Hole Airport is particularly problematic. Short-term and long-term parking lots at airports are typically designated for local passengers who are flying out but leave their vehicle at the airport. Because of the major local tourist attractions in Jackson Hole (Tetons and Yellowstone) only eight percent of all air passenger traffic are local residents and 92 percent are tourists. This means that the short-term and long-term parking does not need that much space, but the rental car companies need a huge allotment of real estate. Our study looked at ways to expand the parking available for the rental car companies who have more than 1,200 new cars delivered in May to rent out during the summer season. One of the big challenges with this airport is that it is entirely located in the Grand Teton National Park and expanding or acquiring new land is not an option. KLJ considered parking adjustments to the lots and tightening the angled parking but the size of the snowplows used at the airport made that difficult. We considered off-site parking and shuttles, but there was no interest in that option. We ultimately created a parking lot layout where the rental car companies could have a shared space to increase parking and they could pave the leach field on-site to increase vehicle storage. This parking lot study faced unique challenges, but KLJ was able to deliver a product that everyone could agree on to address the challenges and expand parking. WALLACE AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS Bozeman, MT Client: City of Bozeman Contact: Rick Hixson, City Engineer – 406 582 2280 Population: 39,860 Number of Employees: N/A Project Start/Completion Date: 2015/2016 Summary: The Northeast Urban Renewal Board in conjunction with the City of Bozeman hired KLJ to design the reconstruction of one of the oldest streets in the city of Bozeman. Included in the design are 0.6 miles of roadway reconstruction, asphalt pavement design, water main, sanitary sewer main, storm drain improvements, numerous Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) facilities, a pedestrian rail crossing, storm water retention pond and utility coordination. KLJ prepared and submitted Section 404 and Montana Department of Environmental Quality (MTDEQ) permits on behalf of the City of Bozeman.

Analyses included alternative cross-sections and intersection improvements, crash data analysis and countermeasures, signal warrants and highway capacity analysis for signalized and unsignalized intersections, parking inventory and analysis. DOWNTOWN TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN West Fargo, ND Client: City of West Fargo Contact: Larry Weil, West Fargo Planning Director – 701 433 5320 Population: 30,000 Number of Employees: N/A Project Start/Completion Date: 2016/2016 Summary: The purpose of the project was to evaluate the impacts and improvements necessary to accommodate the new development and additional redevelopment scenarios ranging from 20 to 60 percent redevelopment by 2040. This study also evaluated improvements along Sheyenne Street, including multimodal enhancements, revised cross-sections, development and analysis of a parking model and parking revisions, truck rerouting, operational analysis, safety analysis and traffic calming. The project involved a widely successful and innovative public involvement approach that utilized 3D animations that business owners and the general public could simulate walking throughout downtown under various improvement scenarios. This helped educate the public on potential benefits and impacts. A primary focus of the project was to collect parking data and develop a parking improvement strategy. KLJ completed a parking inventory and demand and turnover data at six times during a normal weekday and four times during a normal weekend. With this data, KLJ developed a parking model that was calibrated to existing conditions that could evaluate a variety of growth scenarios to determine parking surplus and areas of needs. KLJ developed improvement strategies ranging from physical parking improvements, such as shared parking and revised on-street parking configurations to policy improvement, such as parking maximums and fee-in-lieu of parking alternatives. Outline of Services 9 Our team has read the Request for Proposals and prepared the following approach to meet the study’s objectives. We understand the need for a comprehensive downtown parking plan that will address the existing and future needs of Bozeman’s downtown commercial district. We have organized our proposed scope of services into four tasks that follow the work items provided in the RFP. They are: 1. Scoping Session 2. Data Collection 3. Recommendations/Reporting 4. Additional Tasks KLJ staff is currently reviewing the previous studies mentioned in the RFP. We have read the last three Downtown Parking Studies conducted by WTI and the recent Downtown Strategic Parking Management Plan by Rick Williams Consulting. We propose to launch the project by completing a cursory review of the documents, even before KLJ receives the notice to proceed with the study. Once the plan is formally underway, the team will finalize the schedule and develop a data collection strategy in preparation of a scoping meeting. 1. SCOPING SESSION We believe it is important for all parties to be on the same page before the data collection effort begins; for that purpose, we propose conducting a scoping session to kick-off the project. This will be a meeting with the City of Bozeman, Downtown Partnership, KLJ and data collectors to discuss the project scope, schedule and intended outcomes. At this meeting we will lay out our detailed plan for data collection, including which days data collectors will be in the field. The team will use this meeting to define techniques and expectations, and will also discuss our coordination efforts with the City and potential stakeholders. We will go over project milestones and planned deliverables. The KLJ team also anticipates working through the potential for the additional tasks (study area expansion and a 2017 study) mentioned in the RFP at the scoping session. We hope to coordinate the extent of all data collection at the time of the scoping session, including which study area boundary we are using. For example, if the City would like to include the expanded study area we can coordinate the data collection to occur in those areas prior to going into the field. This scoping session will help make sure the final report meets all objectives and is completed on-time and on budget. 2. DATA COLLECTION This study will only be as good as its data, which is why we are proposing a massive data collection effort. The study area encompasses more than 140 acres of land and includes approximately 4,900 parking spaces. In terms of hours, the data collection represents more than half of this study. KLJ will follow the data collection guidelines laid out by Rick Williams Consulting in Attachment 1 of the RFP. We have read the memorandum and will follow the methodology. The data collection is broken into two main categories. Existing Inventory A parking inventory is necessary to establish a baseline for how many spaces are available in Downtown Bozeman. The inventory will consist of both on-street and off-street parking. Again our inventory will follow the methodology outlined in the Rick Williams Consulting memorandum, including: OUTLINE OF SERVICES Our scoping session will get everyone on the same page and set clear expectations. »Identifying parking spaces using aerial photography »Assigning a unique number to city blocks and letter to block faces »Marking the type of space by time restriction »Correlating lots to buildings following the Rick Williams method »Creating an inventory template »Conducting field verification of all identified spaces Outline of Services 10 The inventory has a GIS component to it as well as other desk work, but will still require hours in the field. We propose completing the inventory for each area prior to measuring the parking space usage. Much of that work can be done concurrently, but we suggest starting with the inventory then measuring the usage for each block and lot, respectively. Parking Usage While inventorying all the parking is important, we will also need to know how often and when parking is utilized. Again we will follow the methodology for collecting parking usage data and measure parking occupancy outlined in the Rick Williams Consulting memorandum. This is intense field data collection with parking space usage being recorded each hour for 10 hours per day. This level of data will need to be recorded for all 4,900 parking spaces in the study area representing an average weekday. The large effort will require data collectors working for weeks to collect all the data. We estimate that is it approximately 28-person days of field data collection. The data collection effort is the largest task in the project and we propose accomplishing this using our intern and lower cost employees. Steve and Thomas will develop the data collection plan, but Kevin and Brent will do all the parking space data collection. We want to be clear that our proposed effort does not include any weekend counts and we will likely count each space on only one day, but we are open to discuss all data collection efforts at the scoping session. The KLJ team feels collecting this level of data is important. We want to be able to compare the data to the past downtown parking studies that collected similar data to identify trends, and we also want to establish this fall 2016 baseline of data for the areas we will be documenting for the first time. We believe we are proposing the right amount of data collection to meet your needs and deliver for our proposed budget. KLJ is prepared to use our local staff to collect all the data in the field while keeping our costs low. If selected, we will immediately develop a data collection plan to discuss in our scoping session prior to any field work. 3. RECOMMENDATIONS/REPORTING The study will be a comprehensive parking plan for downtown that not only inventories parking spaces and collects usage data, but addresses future needs of the downtown commercial district. Recommendations The KLJ team is aware of the current investment in downtown and the 250,000 square feet of new development that could have an impact on parking. KLJ will develop recommendations based on the data collected and on future plans to address specific areas of concern. We plan to follow the recommended parking management strategies documented in the 2016 Downtown Strategic Parking Management Plan, including: »Evaluating code-based minimum parking »Developing a schedule of data collection »Identifying shared-use opportunities »Evaluating on-street pricing »Others We will also consider recommendations that may affect performance, such as line painting, signage and bicycle parking. Our recommendations will be focused on improving parking and creating an area identity. We will collect data for all spaces in the Bridger garage. Outline of Services 11 With so many recently completed plans, we are flexible with what you want our report to be. We can cater the final document to address specific information or capture ideas and recommendations established in earlier documents; it is up to you. Reporting KLJ prides itself on having meaningful graphics and reports that are easy to read. We will create maps and graphics that clearly communicate the parking inventory, data collected and recommendations for the study area. We will highlight trends and project takeaways. All of our content will be available as PDFs for presentation or the web. We will write a draft report incorporating the appropriate technical memos and deliverables with all recommendations. Our report will be organized into chapters and include tables, charts and photos along with maps and graphics. The draft report will be available for comments around the first of February. We will incorporate the comments received from the City and any stakeholders, and address any final concerns when completing the final report. We will deliver the final report in hardcopy, Microsoft Word and PDF digital format, which can be loaded onto the website. 4. ADDITIONAL TASKS Two possible additional tasks were mentioned in the RFP, and we are prepared to complete either or both. We are including a brief discussion of those tasks here and have included our costs to complete the tasks in this proposal as well. Study Area Expansion The RFP identified the possibility of expanding the study area one block north and south from the established study area. We are happy to accommodate this expansion into our parking inventory and data collection efforts. It is our plan to map parking usage by areas to identify trends and help with recommendations. Outline of Services 12 The established study area covers an area of 145 acres and the expanded area cover 185 acres, 27.5 percent larger. This expanded area includes on-street parking throughout and several off-street parking lots. We believe there are some efficiencies to be had if we include this larger study area early in the process. We will be able to incorporate the added blocks into the data plan. It is our hope that we can decide on the final study area to be used at the scoping session kick-off meeting. 2017 Study KLJ is ready to lead this study and we are prepared to build off of this work next year as well. Re-collecting the parking usage data could be valuable. We believe we could offer the City some efficiencies in the data collection, because we would have previous experience to learn from. Efficiencies that could lead to cost savings for you include: »No need for scoping session »A reduced inventory only documenting changes in parking »Following the same data collection map previously generated »Limited changes to recommendations, but full reporting still required We are proposing a reduced budget for the follow-up study to reflect these efficiencies. We are prepared to complete the 2017 study using either study area boundary. We pride ourselves on being a local firm with staff that live and work in Bozeman and we are ready to conduct any additional studies that can help our community. Project Study Area shown in red. Expanded Study Area shown in yellow. Cost and Expenses 13 KLJ has completed many similar studies throughout our region, providing our clients with proven data collection, parking analysis, and effective coordination directly relevant to their projects. KLJ is qualified and ready to help Bozeman with this study. Ultimately, we will work to follow the data collection practices outlined by Rick Williams Consulting and offer recommendations to practices and policies that will improve the downtown. KLJ will also work closely with Bozeman City Parking Department to ensure complete understanding throughout the project.
