RE: Simon Wiesenthal Center Museum of Tolerance Project Parking Analysis
Dear Eddie,
This letter is provided in regards to the parking demand for the proposed expansion from 69,477
square feet to 100,000 square feet (the “Project”) of the Museum of Tolerance (the “Museum”).
The Project is more fully described in the traffic study submitted to you on June 17, 2008.
Methodology
To estimate future parking demand for the Project, the existing parking demand, excluding
special events, was determined and was increased proportionally to the increased size of the
Museum. During the time period that the parking counts were taken no special events were
occurring at the Museum. Thus, the counts represent parking demand for exhibits and Museum
visitors and other normal Museum functions, but not for special events or the Peltz Theater
(which was closed for renovation). The parking demand for the Peltz Theater was taken into
account in the parking demand for the proposed expansion.
To assess the potential parking demand of the proposed Museum expansion, automatic 24-hour
site driveway counts were conducted by Crain and Associates and its subcontractor from Friday,
May 16 to Tuesday, May 20, 2008 (See Appendix A-1 for the automated trip count data). The
Museum is closed on Saturdays before sundown, so no trips were observed on that day. To
calibrate these automatic traffic counts, manual parking counts were conducted hourly between

Page 2
9:00 AM and 3:00 PM on Sunday, May 18, and Monday, May 19, 2008 (six hourly observations
per day -- See Appendix A-2 for manual parking count data). Thus, in addition to the automated
24-hour a day counts, the manual counts provided greater accuracy during the peak demand
times for the Museum, which closed for the day at 5:00 PM.
The parking demand for special events to occur within the Museum was determined and added to
the parking demand for the expanded exhibits. The parking demand for special events was
calculated based on the potential number of attendees at different time periods, based on the
following assumptions: 500 people may attend special events hosted by the Museum or third
parties from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Sundays and weekdays; and 800 people may attend special
events hosted by the Museum or third parties after 7:00 PM on Sundays and weekdays, or after
sundown on Saturdays.
To ensure a conservative analysis, no credits were taken for Museum visitors or event attendees
who might arrive on foot or via public transit. Based on the location of Museum along a major
transit corridor, the City of Los Angeles Municipal Code would have allowed the Planning
Commission to grant a reduction of the parking requirement based upon the transportation
alternatives available at this site. (LAMC Section 12.21.1.4(y)) Also, the entire expanded
Museum building was treated under the Museum parking demand rates, even though some of the
building areas will be used for the special events and, thereby, accounted for twice.
Parking Ratios
The City of Los Angeles Municipal Code parking ratio for places of assembly such as a theatre,
church, or auditorium is 1 space per 5 seats or 35 square feet when seats are not fixed. As
discussed below, because attendance for special events is limited to specified numbers of
attendees, the fixed seat ratio is the most appropriate basis for determining the Museum’s
requirements for special events. In order to determine the appropriate parking ratio for the
expanded Museum use, we conducted a survey of fixed seat parking requirements in similarly
situated communities in the Los Angeles area. The parking ratios are described in Table 1
below:

1 space per 4 fixed seats.
The survey represents the fixed seat ratios and parking requirements that have proven adequate
in many similar cities for the parking demand applicable to the expanded Museum use. As
demonstrated by the information in the Table above, three of the surrounding jurisdictions have
similar parking requirements of 1 space per 5 fixed seats, while two others have a more
conservative ratio of 1 space per 4 fixed seats. Because the parking ratio of 1 space per 4 seats is
more conservative, we utilized this more conservative ratio in the following analysis in order to
ensure that adequate parking is provided.
Mr. Eddie Guerrero
July 17, 2008

Please note that many jurisdictions, including the City of Los Angeles, also provide a parking
requirement based on the area of the premises. Using a fixed seat parking ratio, rather than
basing the parking on area, is most appropriate for the proposed special events because the
number of attendees will be capped and the area-based calculations are not relevant.
Further, the place of assembly use was selected as being most applicable to special events and
the type of users who will be attracted to those events. The Museum will contain a number of
venues, including a theater, conference facility and cultural resource center. Therefore, a limit is
proposed to be placed on the total special event attendance at any time to reflect the maximum
size audiences which could be in the Museum. This better reflects the shared use nature of the
project parking and is consistent with the fixed seat parking ratios.
The City of Los Angeles ratio is consistent with the hotel meeting/banquet category estimated by
the Urban Land Institute (ULI) in its Shared Parking standards. For a hotel meeting/banquet, it
recommends a ratio of 20 to 30 spaces per 1,000 square feet gross leasable area. A lower ratio of
20 spaces per 1,000 square feet is recommended for hotels with fewer rooms. By way of
comparison, the City of Los Angeles rate of 1 space per 35 square foot ratio from the Code
equates to a ratio of 28.6 spaces per 1,000 square feet of building area, which is at the high end
of the ULI range. Accordingly, the City of Los Angeles parking ratios are consistent with the
empirically derived ULI ratios. The utilized rate of one space per 4 seats equates to 1 space per
28 square foot of seating area or 35.7 spaces per 1,000 square feet which is substantially more
than parking than ULI indicates is needed.
Shared Parking is a nationally accepted publication and combines data from various relevant
sources. For Convention Centers/Banquets this included the Institute of Transportation
Engineers Parking Generation, 3rd Edition, data collected by ULI team members, and other ULI
publications. Therefore, this data represents the best available estimate of demand and indicates
a lower level than was assumed in this analysis.
Based on the utilized parking ratio of 1 space per 4 seats, special events with up to 500 seats
occurring between 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM during weekdays and Sundays would require 125
parking spaces (500seats/4 spaces). Special events with up to 800 seats occurring after 7:00 PM
on weekdays and Sundays or sundown on Saturdays would require 200 parking spaces (800
seats/4 spaces). The total site parking demand for both weekdays and weekends is estimated
below in the Findings section.

Parking Supply
Parking will be provided by a combination of the existing on-site parking lot with 202 marked
spaces and 40 parking spaces added by utilizing valet parking in the existing structure. In
addition, an off-site parking facility with 99 existing marked spaces and 20 added valet parking
spaces will be used. While the on-site parking area will serve the Museum, including special
events, during all hours that it is open, the off-site parking facility (which is located in an office
building at 1399 Roxbury Drive, directly across the intersection from the Museum) would be
available on Saturdays after sundown, and Sundays from 7:00 AM to midnight and weekdays
after 7:00 PM. During weekdays from 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM, the off-site parking facility at 1399
Roxbury Drive would instead serve the office building. When the Roxbury Drive office building
is not in use, the 119 spaces could be fully utilized instead as parking for the Museum. 1399
Roxbury is owned by the Simon Wiesenthal Center, thus the parking supply is controlled by the
Center.
Currently, the Museum provides sufficient parking spaces on site for the existing uses based on
the parking survey conducted in May 2008. As shown in Table 2, a surplus currently exists of
105 spaces on weekdays between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM, 200 spaces on weekdays after 7:00
PM, 199 spaces on Saturday after sundown, 12 spaces on Sunday between 7:00 AM and 7:00
PM, and 199 spaces on Sunday after 7:00 PM. This is the number of parking spaces which are
available beyond the parking demand during these time periods.

Findings
A summary of the parking supply and demand for the proposed expansion of the Museum,
including for special events, is shown in Table 3. As shown in Table 2, an additional 3 spaces
would be required on weekdays between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM and 39 spaces would be required
on Sunday between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM in order to meet the parking demand. A surplus of 60
spaces on weekdays after 7:00 PM, 155 spaces on Saturday after sundown, and 29 spaces on
Sunday after 7:00 PM would be available beyond the parking demand during these time periods.

Surplus/deficit:
* The Project proposes a change in the Museum closing time from 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM on weekdays and to
7:00 PM on Sundays. Thus, to be conservative, the analysis assumed that the parking demand from 5:00 PM to
9:30 PM would be the same as the existing demand at 4:00 PM.
** The parking strucutre at 1399 Roxbury has a supply of 99 spaces, with 2 spaces occupied throughout
Sunday, and 14 spaces occupied during weekdays after 7:00 PM. The parking demand at 1399 Roxbury is based
on a parking survey conducted by Crain Associates in January of 2008.

Based on the results summarized in Table 2 and Table 3, the maximum attendees which should
be allowed at a special event prior to mitigation measure being required were calculated. It
should be noted that Table 4 assumes the more conservative parking demand ratio of 1 space per
4 attendees at each special event.

As demonstrated above, the maximum attendance for Sunday and weekdays after 7:00 PM and
Saturday after sundown would allow the proposed special event with up to 800 attendees.
However, without mitigation the maximum attendance for weekdays between 7:00 AM and 7:00
PM, and Sunday between 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM is less than the proposed special event with up
to 500 attendees. To address the parking shortage, Museum of Tolerance would be required to
either close its exhibit area or provide off-site parking (with shuttle service if the parking is
located more than 750 feet from the Museum) if weekday attendance at special events between
7:00 AM and 7:00 PM will exceed 488 or if Sunday attendance at special events between 7:00
AM and 7:00 PM will exceed 344 attendees. If off-site parking is provided, it should be
provided at a ratio of 1 space per 4 attendees.
