/ MARIN ACADEMY TRANSPORT-ATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT PLAN PREPARED By: Parisi TRANSPO RTATION COKSULTING MAY 30,2014 EXHIBIT 11 A. Purpose Marin Academy has 6Jed a Use Penrut Amendment with the City of San Rafael that would allow the school to increase enrollment from 400 to 450 students, and potentially add up to three faculty/ staff members to "t1,>,.",,,t,f"hf senre the expanded srudent base. Enrollment would increase primar.i1y with additional "'-0'''''''-'', until the school's overall student population reached 450 students 12 to 13 fteshmen a year over a course of four yeats). This Demand Management Plan was to address the potential vehicular and Pru:JUrlQ: effects that could result with the potenciallncrease in enrollment and Marin Academy is committed to proactively addressing u:affic and parlcing and has a proven ttack record in this regard. The school has a comprehensive Parking and Traffic Plan, amended to the School's Conditional Use PCrrrUt, as re!JUllt'ed by the City. Marin promotes student and faculty/staff carpooling, has Avenue and the school's Circle Dcive foJ:' student and pick-up, restricts off-sire puking to streets south of IVlission Avenue, provides mont on-site parking spaces than is genetaUy by of San Rafael codes, and works to resolve padcing and traffic concerns when they arise. prepared in wjth Marin Academy's proposed This enrollment to be both consistent and in d.i.recl alignment with the City of San Rafael's General Plan 2020, "VL.LUJl'-,U>y This • c.12 (Tmn.sp{)rtaliol1 Demand 1vfanagement) e'/17pbasi!'(!s {;()operolivl? lj)iJrk betwedn governmmt nonprofit!, businesses, institutions, and l'1!Jidctltiai neighborhoods to male new (/nd dfoctivc """'eM,'!,,)',,,., Demand Management' (fDM) programs to single occupmuy aummobi/e uu and peak period traffic demaml. .. c.13 (School-Related Autumobile Trqlfh) lmcouragu fchools to implemrmt trip and reduce crmgesfiulJ caused I!J cotl'l'mu.i2t1{J II C-29 (Beller UHf of PtIt'king Resources) seeks to the ml! opporltmitics throHgh innovative tlf'llornm< public/pnvate partnmhips and MIl!!"""ti",,, land use poiiciu.

Current Travel Characteristics Marin Academy students, faculty and staff travel to and from school using a variety of modes, including: driving to school and parking on campus, driving to school and parking off campus, carpooling with a person who drove to school and parked 011 Cllmpu s, ca.rpooling with a pe.rson who parked off campus, being dropped off at school on campus, carpooling and being dropped off Ca mpus, taking one of the AClidemy - provided school buses, or bicycling"walking, or using public transportation, Vehicle parking at Ma)'ltl Academy is availab,le both on campus and off campus , Both students and faculty/staff use the 00 campus parking. Students and faculty I sta ff who park off-site util.ize a combmatioo of on-street meteted and unmetered parking and spaces in paid and free patlung lo[s. MaIin Academy has secured 161 designated parking spaces, including 127 on-campus spaces and 34 in a school-owned parking lot aL Fifth Avenue. In order to develop II baseline of current school travel charac[eristics, Marin Academy hired Pallsi rranspo.rtation Consultants to conduct a comprehensive travel sUivey in November, 2013. rhe survey was distributed to students in grades 9 through 12, as well as faculty and sraff, and was held over the course of three consecutive days. Ridership on school bus routes was also rabulated by the bus dcivers. Table 1 summarizes the survey's 'results based on person-trips to school in the morning and from school in the a ftern.oon. The number of vehicle-trips associated with automobile and bus travd.is lower than the ll~ber of auto- oriented person-trips due to carpooling and bus use. For example, the number of occupants in student carpools in the morniog is 2 .01 for cars parked on-campus and 1.55 for vehicles parked off-campus. During the morning school commute, faculty I staff carpool occupancies are 1.12 people per v ehicle for those parked on-campus and 1,04 for cars parked off-campus. Marin Academy's school buses accommodate an avetage' of 16 students per bus, and no faculty/staff were observed riding a school bus .

Demmd Managemc'nl Plan Page 5 D. Overview of Transportation Demand Management Measures Marin Academy proposes to implement a vaJ:iety of transportation demand management measures designed to ensure that there are no additional vehicle-mps generated and no additional parking spaces used (dl\cing the morning and aftemoon peak school commute periods) with the phased increase of 50 students and three faculty/stIff, compared to cuttent conditions. The proposed measures will help to ensure that Mario Academy continues to be sensitive to neighborhood and. enviro~ental concerns about trartic and parking, as well as remaining consistem with the goals of the San Rafael General Plan 2020. Marin Academy will use a combination of the measures and strategies lis[ed in the menu below to ensure tha[ vehicle-ttips and parking demand does not rise above, and could potentially fall below, the 2013 baseline survey. Specifically, these measures are: " Strategy #1: Increase vehicle occupancy for both parking and drop-off/pick-up trips • Strategy #2: Increase Marin Ac-ademy school bus ridersh.ip • Strategy #3. Increase the use of public transponation ~ Strategy #4: Increase the use of bicycle and waUdng (non-motorized transportation) Table 5 illustrates various measutes that could be combined -wi.th the school's proposed increased enrollment -to maintain or decrease single occupant vehicle-tops and parking demands to 2013 peak period. levels. As stated above, if Marin Academy 1ncrellsed enrollment by 50 students and added duee faculty/staff members, without any txansportation demand mitigation measures in place, the result would be the addition of 33 morning peak hour vehicle-trips, and an increase in parking demand by 18 vehicles. However, the school could utilize a variety of strategies to reduce both additional vehicle trips and parking spaces needed. For example: • The school would have no additional trips or patking demand if it increased smdent veh.icle occupancy [rom 2.01 to 2.2 5, (a modest 11.9% increase), jncreased faculty/staff vehicle occupancy from 1.12 to 1.20 (a modest 7.1 %), increased bus seat occupancy from 29 to 40 percent, and encouraged 10 additional students and five adclitional faculty / sta ff to use public transportation. This would also decrease parking demands to existing or less than existing levels. • Alternatively, the school would have no additioIl21 trips or parking demand if it increased student vehicle occupancy from 2.01 to 2.35 (16.9%), increased bus seat occupancy from 29 to 50 percent, and encouraged 10 additiooal students to walk or cycle to school This would also decrease parking demands to existing or less than exisciog levels. • In addition, the school would have no additional trips or parking demand if it encouraged 20 adclitional students and 10 additional facultyhtaff to use public transportation, and 20 additioml studems and five additional facule), / staff [Q walk ot cycle to school. This would also decrease parking demands to existing or less than existlog levels. As demonstrated above, there are numerous combinations of strategies that could be used to maintain, Ot decrease, the number of vehicle-trips and the patlcing demands to current levels if the proposed enrollment and staffing issues increase. Table 5 Jlitarin Academy Tr.1osportation Demand Maoagement Plan l'age 6 below oucl1nes in more detail how each component of the various strategies would reduce trip genecauon. Table 5.

Morin Academy Trn.nsponation Demand Management Plan Page 7 E. Strategy #1: Increase Vehicle Occupancy Current Conditions: The nwnber of occupants in student carpools is higher during the morning school commute than during the afternoon commute. The average number of students per parked vehicle in the mortling is 2 .01 for cars p :uked on campus, and 1.55 for vehicles parked off campus. The occupancy levels decrease to 1.48 and 1.39, respectively, duting the aftcmoon school corrunute due to the dispersion of students to after-school activities, During the moming school commute, faculty/staff caIpool occupancies ate 1.12 people per vehicle for those parked on campus and 1.04 for Cars parked off campus. The occupancy levels decte2.se to 1 .09 and t .00, l'espectivdy, during the aftemoon school commute. Strategies to Reduce Single Occupa'nt Vehicle-Trips and Parking Demand; • Consider provision of preferential parking s paces for carpool parking, as well as reduced parking fees as incentives for c:Jtpooling (see next item). This would need to be stri.ctly enfoi'ced by school staff. • Consider charging a fee for parking on-campus with only one srudent or one faculty occupant as a meallS to further encourage carpooling, bus ridership, bicycling and waUliog. • Consid.er awarding "transit bucks" to stude nts who arrive via carpool (m transit, walk or bicycle) to be used for school purchases. • Increase the carpool rate for drop-offs and pick-ups being made by parents/guardians through the use of encouragement progtams such as SchoolPoollVlarin (www.schoolpoolmarin,org). Examples: • Increasing the student vehicle occupancy from its current cate of 2.01 students per o n-campus vehicle to 2.25 students per vehicle would res ult in 10 fewer vehicle-trips after the increased enrollment ; 1nC!easmg it to 2.35 students per vehicle would result in 14 fewer vehicle-trips; and increasing it to 2.50 students pet vehicle would result jn 21 fewer vehicle-trips . • Increas.ing the faculty/staff vehicle occupancy from 1.12 persons pet on-campus vehicle to 1.20 persons per vehicle would result in five fewer vehicle-trips Wlth increased enrol.lment; ittcreasing it to. 1.35 persons would result in 15 fewer vehicle-trips; and increasing it to 1.50 persons would result in 26 [ewer vehicle-trips . M~rin Academy T "'t1Spol1~tion Demand MamgCffient [)lan Strategy #2: Bus Ridership Current Conditions: Marin offers school bus service the San corrido.l:S. The . school uSeS three tnHlitlonal yellow school buses. Each bus has the to up to S6 passengers. Two buses serve the East Doe bas" primary location at the Del Norte BART station in serves Park Boulevard and BART ill Oalcland. The thit:d bus setves San Francisco with an additional location in Mill VaHey. the buses cany about 49 students pe( day, oun average of16 students per bus (29% of bus capacity). Currently, faculty/staff rudy use Marin \.cademv'S buses to travel to OJ; from school L"'L"'~''''''' to Reduce and Demand: ..

Strategy #3: Increase Use of Public Transportation Current Conditions: Marin Academy is favorably positioned along a major east-west bus u:ansportarion corridor within Marin County. Golden Gate Transit has three lines that have stops within [wo blocks of Malm Academy: Routes 23, 27, and 28. In addition, the San Rafael Transit Center, served by 26 bus routes, and the Sl:V1ART tra,in jn the coming years, is located just 0 .9 miles away from the school and seLves as a collection point for all municipalities within Marin Counry .. Therefore, opportunities [0 take advantage of public transit are available to both students and faculty/staff. SMART is a north-south commuter rajl line within Sonoma and Marin counties that is scheduled to begjn service by eady 20-\6. SMART will initially operate as far north as the Sonoma County Airport and as fa~ south as downtown San Rafael with the rail terminus located within the San Rafael Transit Center. Additionally, SMART will be bicycle-friendly, allowing riders to reach stations and/or their fInal destination by providing ample bicycle parking as well as storage space on trains. Based on rhe recent survey conducted, only two students utilized public transportation in the morning and only four i.n the afternoon. No faculty / sraff llsed public transportation. Substantial redllctions in vehicle-trips and parking demand could be made if studenrs and faculty/staff were to use public transportation. While Imlny students and faculty/staff live outside the practical reach of public transpottaciol1, many live within a bus line thllt serves the San Rafael Transit Center, and by extension, the routes that come very close to Marin Academy. Almos[ three-quarters of Marin Academy students and over two-thirds of faculty / staff live in Marin C o unty, providing the largest opportunity to shift people out of autom()biles for their tcips to and from Marin Academy. Strategies to Reduce Single Occupant Vehicle-Trips and Parking Demand : • Outreach to parents, students and faculty, to infonn them of their transit options • Consider facilit:2ting attairunent of and/ or providing free or reduced price Golden Gate Transi[/SlVIART passes for students. a Consider providing commuter transi.t checks to re..unburse faculty I st:lff [or transit use. • Conside.r awarding "transit bucks" to students who arrive via transit (or carpool, walle or bike) [0 be used for school purchases. • Consider pmviding a shuttle bus to provide service between the Sl\1ART station and Marin Academy. .. Consider charging a fce for parking on-campus with only one student or one f~culty occup~nt as a means to further encourage Cat pooling, bus ridership, bicycling and walking. Examples: • Teu more students each day using public transportation would result in five to 10 fewer vehicle-u:ips with increased enrollment; 20 more students using public transportation would result in 10 to 20 fewer vehicle-trips. • Five faculty/staff using public transponation on a daily basis wouLd result i.n five fewer vehicle-trips with increased enrollment; 10 farui£y / staff using public transportatiol1 would result in 10 fewer vehicle-trips.

Strategy #4: Increase Walking and Bicycling Current Conditions: Mar.ln County has seen a dtamatic lncrease in and within the last 10 ye2.ts. This is pdmaxily due to to roadways and of pathways to and bicyclists. Some of these changes include: routing and " ....

Monitoring Marin Academy's administration currently revbvs onp'OJll1P' traffic and parking safety operations on campus and the surrounding neighboxhood, has and seCUon of the Mann Academy Student) Parent Handbook, coordinates. with the neighborhood, and makes recommendations to improve traffic and conditions. At one time the school hosted a Parking and Traffic Comrnittee, which was a condition of approval for the use amendment in 2002. This which consisted of the Marin AClldemy neighborhood and a of San Rafael staff member, was discontinued after one year, as approved by the City, once neighborhood issues were addressed. The Traffic and Committee was discontinued at the direction of the City. This Transportation Demand lVlfmage)!ne Plan will pexiodic evaluation to determine how the program is achieving its goals. On an annual basis, the school shall conduct a ttaveJ survey in the fall of each year, consistent with the November 2013 survey, to assess student and faculty/staff travel cn:;u"C/C'n including the number of and the vehicle padting demand the moming and afternoon peak school commute periods.

My name is Herb Bool. I have been a middle school science educator for the past twenty years, I have a daughter who currently attends Marin Academy and I have lived in San Rafael for fifteen years. Marin Academy's desire to build a Science and Innovation center addresses the need to both inspire young students as well as train them for careers in engineering and the sciences. Technology and careers in science are leading the way in today's competitive economic global markets. Motivating students to choose careers in science will aid in finding solutions to many of challenges that face our society. Scientists are tasked with solving the challenges of climate change, energy and renewable resources, and the global management of food and water distribution. These issues can only be solved and debated with in a scientifically literate popUlation. High school education is a challenge on many levels. Students are faced an opportunity for greater independence combined sodal and academic pressures. At this critical education juncture its important that science education is taught with a dynamic and accessible pedagogy. The Science and Innovation Center will allow Marin Academy science teachers to incorporate a more engaging pedagogy by integrating a more hands-on, real world scientific investigations and issues. In this cooperative and project based learning environment students will engage with global issues and scientists and work directly on finding solutions to real world problems 1 I hope that the members of the San Rafael Planning commission can see the benefit of approving Marin Academy's Science and Innovation Center helping to educate inspired and scientifically literate students.
