RE: LOD201600025 - Shared Parking Agreement for the Branchlands Retirement Village
Tax Map Parcels: 61Z-03-5A, 61Z-03-5C, 61Z-04-1C, 61Z-03-5, 61Z-03-5D and, 61Z-03-4
Dear Ms. Long:
This letter is to confirm the determinations made by me as part of reviews for the special permit
and site development plan for the Assisted Living Site at the Branchlands Retirement Village.
These determinations were and are based on a detailed parking analysis for the six properties
served by parking at the village, the latest revision being the May 25, 2015 analysis by Timmons
Group. The determinations resulted in a Shared Parking Agreement, dated May 2, 2016,
serving the six properties. This determination concludes that there is adequate parking for the
village to remain in full compliance in terms of parking requirements, including those for the
existing apartments.
My conclusion is further justified by field surveys conducted for the analysis, and since, which
counted available vacant parking spaces at different times of the day and week, revealing an
average of 46 weekday and 53 weekend vacant spaces. This, of course, is based on the
schedule of uses remaining the same as they were outlined in the Timmons analysis.
This is the latest parking determination for Branchlands Retirement Village and replaces any
parking determinations for this development made prior to January 6, 2017. Any further
changes to the uses in this complex will require a new parking analysis and determination.
Please contact m oul u have any questions on this information.
Sincerely,
Ron Id iggins, Al P

Re: Pr6paser3 Brine ands Village Expansion — Parking Analysis
Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to summarize the findings of the parking inventory and utilization
analysis performed by Timmons Group in conjunction with the proposed Whistler House expansion at
Branchlands Village.
Background
Branchlands Village is an independent living facility located off of Incarnation Drive in Albemarle County,
VA (see Figure 1). The existing Branchlands Village consists of two (2) buildings that contain a total of 69
units; 62 of these units are occupied by a single individual and 7 are occupied by couples. Approximately
50% of the current residents own/park a vehicle on site.
In addition to the residents, there is approximately 14 staff on -site between 7:00am and 7:00pm on a
typical weekday. With respect to the 14 staff, 12 drive cars to work and two (2) depend on public
transportation. On Saturday there are typically four (4) employees present between 7:00am and
12:00pm; no staff is present on Sunday.
Data Collection — Existing Parking Utilization
As shown on Figure 2, two (2) surface lots currently serve the primary parking needs of Branchlands
Village. Lot A (located to the west) contains 60 spaces and Lot B (located to the east) contains 26
spaces; in total there are 86 spaces serving the daily parking demand.
Parking occupancy counts were conducted in both Lots A and B on Tuesday February 4, 2013,
Wednesday February 5, 2013, and Saturday February 8, 2013. Weekday counts were collected four (4)
times throughout the day on each of the weekdays and the Saturday counts were collected twice; the
data collection times correspond with the peak parking demands based on data provided by
Branchlands Village. The results of the data collection efforts are summarized in Tables 1 and 2.

Based on the information above, the Tuesday and Wednesday (i.e. weekday) data were both similar and
consistent. Lot A had an overall daily utilization rate of 46% (28 occupied spaces, 32 vacant spaces) and
Lot B had an overall daily utilization rate of 47% (12 occupied spaces, 14 vacant spaces). On the average
weekday, there are approximately 46 vacant parking spaces available. With respect to the weekend
parking utilization, Lot A had an overall daily utilization rate of 38% (22 occupied spaces, 38 vacant
spaces) and Lot B had an overall daily utilization rate of 44% (11 occupied spaces, 15 vacant spaces). On
the average Saturday, there are approximately 53 vacant parking spaces available.
Proposed Expansion
The proposed expansion, Whistler House, will consist of up to, 83 additional units and be located
immediately south of the existing buildings (see Figure 2). The addition will lead to the removal of three
parking spaces, bringing the total parkin space count down from 86-to 83.. Whistler House, unlike
existing Branchlands Village, will be an assisted living facility at which the residents are unable to live
independently and unlikely to have a vehicle. The proposed 83-unit expansion will include:
• 24 memory care studios;
• 56 1-bedroom units; and
• 3 2-bedroom units.
Since the proposed expansion will consist entirely of assisted living units, employee numbers will
increase and the facility will be staffed around the clock. Table 3 below summarizes anticipated
weekday and weekend staffing

Based on the information in Table 3, the peak demand for staff parking will be realized between
12:00pm and 2:00pm during both weekday and weekend operations.
Conclusions
According to the information presented above, on average, there are 46 vacant spaces ,during the typical
weekday and 53 vacant spaces during the typical Saturday. Assuming that each of the anticipated staff
for the proposed 83-unit Whistler House expansion drive their own vehicle to work, there will be a peak
need for 37 additional spaces during the week and 26 on Saturday.
Given the current number of vacancies, there is a sufficient number of existing spaces on -site to
accommodate this demand. It is estimated that following the expansion there will be approximately six
(6) vacant spaces available during the weekday peak (46 vacant — 37 new employees — 3 removed
parkings spaces) which equated to overall utilization rate of 92%. On Saturday there will be
approximately 24 vacant spaces (53 vacant — 26 new employees — 3 removed parking spaces) which
equates to an overall utilization rate of 71%.
The data above indicates that no additional parking spaces are required to satisfy the .parking demand
that is anticipated to accompany the proposed 83-unit Whistler House expansion at Branchlands Village.
