SubjectE Land Acquisition for Landis Avenue Parking
Background
The following is a benefit/cost analysis regarding purchasing' property on
Landis Avenue for additional public parking. The parcels analyzed includes
280 {Christensen), 282 (Lopez), and 281-285 {Grant). The development
alternatives analyzed include (1) the purchase and development of 280-282
Landis Avenue, (2) the purchase and development of 281-285 Landis Avenue, and
(3) the purchase of 281-285 and exchange for 280-282 Landis Avenue as the
parking development site.
Also, the Traffic Division of the Engineering Department has developed a
conceptual parking plan for each lot. Specifically, the parcels at 280-282
{directly north of ADMA) generate 24 parking stalls and the two Grant
properties if incorporated into the existing City lot would supply 35
additional spaces. Attached are the conceptual parking plans developed by the
Engineering Department. Doug Reid has also reviewed both plans and does not
have a major problem with either proposal.
The following is a more detailed analysis of the three alternative parking lot
plans.

Recommendation
It is recommended that Mr. Grant's properties at 281-285 be purchased and
developed for public parking from both a short-term and long-range
perspective. From a short-term perspective, this alternative would provide
the greatest number of parking stalls at a cost/space that is least
expensive. In addition to being the most cost-effective parking plan, this
alternative has several long-term advantages. First, with the purchase of
these two parcels, the Agency leaves open the opportunity for either adding a
deck onto the ground level lot or selling a portion of or the entire site for
redevelopment. Second, if Dr. Lopez was to develop on 281 Landis Avenue, his
proposed medical office building would fragment the existing City parking lot
from a potential parking lot at 285 Landis Avenue, inhibit the possible
redevelopment of the City parking lot and would be more prominent than if the
building was developed adjacent to and in the shadow of ADMA's City Plaza.
The primary negative attribute to this alternative is the aesthetic problem of
one large parking lot. In addition to almost one acre of paved area, more
buildings along Third Avenue would be exposed from the rear. However, the
increased exposure of unmaintained buildings and unsightly utilities may
provide an incentive to improve the area. Second, this plan does not permit a
walkway from the Library to Third Avenue. To remedy this problem, it is
recommended that Dr. Lopez be required, as part of his new development, to
provide a public walkway through his parcel. Finally, if additional parking
is desired for the Library, it is recommended that the Agency should consider
purchasing property on Garrett Avenue in the vicinity of the Town Centre
Professional Building.
