Smith, Human Resources Coordinator/Mission District Proje^t Coordinator SUBJECT: SAN GABRIEL'S MISSION DISTRICT FAMILY FESTIVAL Purpose To recognize and approve the request submitted by the San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce for a weekly Saturday evening, Family Festival as a major economic and public relations marketing event to assist in implementing the vision and goals for the San Gabriel Mission District and the City of San • Gabriel. Background In 1994 the City of San Gabriel celebrated revitalization of one of the most important places in California's history — the San Gabriel Mission District. Mission San Gabriel Archangel was the region's original settlement founded in 1771. It has long been a center of culture and art, and has welcomed visitors as the`Birthplace of Los Angeles," the heart and soul of the great Los Angeles metropolitan area. The City of San Gabriel invested$1.8 million in the development of the San Gabriel Mission District — a pedestrian-oriented area developed to serve as a major regional attraction. Continued development of the Mission District's commercial areas has provided entertainment, shopping and recreation for tourists and residents. A great deal has been accomplished since the 1994 revitalization celebration. In March 1996, the City of San Gabriel held a workshop with businesses, organizations, residents and other interested parties to discuss economic strategies for the City's Mission District. During this large group discussion a planning framework for the Mission District was developed, specific strategies were identified for improving the District, and the Mission District Partnership was formed. The Partnership, composed of businesses and cultural and civic organizations, is dedicated to, "cooperatively develop, promote and market the District as a destination for tourism, culture, entertainment, dining and shopping." 1 AGENDA ITEM NO. 6 In order to establish a planning framework, Partnership members have identified key assets of the Mission District. With these assets in mind, visions, goals and issues for the District have been developed which will positively reflect on San Gabriel as a whole. Mission District assets include: The history and tradition of the District from 1771 and its significance as the "Birthplace of the Los Angeles region." • The District itself. . . encompassing the Mission San Gabriel Archangel, Civic Auditorium, Civic Center, Historical Museum, Fine Arts Gallery, the many historic and cultural sites, and the dining and entertainment venues present in the District. • San Gabriel's ethnic and cultural diversity, and cultural legacy. Visions and goals include: • Increasing awareness of the District and the City of San Gabriel. • Promote recognition as an arts and entertainment hub. • Promote San Gabriel's image. ` • Showcase Mission District and surrounding area businesses. • Expand and highlight community strengths. • Build partnerships between business and government to benefit the community. • Provide pedestrian friendly active streets full of people with opportunities for children and families. • Strengthen the unity of the community. • Retain business and attract new businesses. Key issues include: Marketing and promoting the area. Increasing knowledge about the District • Improving access to the District. 2 Since the original vision for the success of the San Gabriel Mission District began, a great deal has been accomplished to implement these visions, goals and issues. Mission District Family Festival Overview In October 1995, the San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce and manager of the Monrovia Family Festival approached the City with a proposal to start a weekly Saturday evening, Family Festival in the Mission District similar to the highly successful Monrovia Family Festival. Although everyone agreed that the City of San Gabriel could experience a number of benefits as a result of the Family Festival (promoting San Gabriel's image, marketing the area, and supporting a successful business atmosphere, etc.), the City expressed concern about the coordination of two (2) events (Civic Auditorium/Festival), access to the area, and Civic Auditorium and Festival parking and preferred another evening be considered for the festival. At that time, the City did not address mitigating or resolving any of these areas of concern, and talks about having a Family Festival in San Gabriel were put on hold while the Chamber of Commerce considered whether another day for the event was feasible. As you know, the San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce is the sponsoring agency for the proposed weekly festival, and the festival manager, Valley Hardware Productions, is an experienced, successful producer of the weekly Monrovia Family Festival. After carefully considering the benefits and the challenges for a Saturday evening Family Festival, including the fact that Saturday evenings are traditional "family-nights-out," and showcase the Mission District and area businesses,the Chamber of commerce determined that, overall, a Saturday evening Family Festival will maximize success for the Festival, the Mission District and and area businesses. Over the past few months, the Chamber of Commerce, festival manager, City of San Gabriel stag and members of the Mission District Partnership have worked to develop a plan for the successful implementation of a Saturday evening, Family Festival. Issues identified which have required research, evaluation and resolution, include: coordinating two Saturday evening events (Civic Auditorium / Festival); traffic flow; access, parking and available parking lots; bus loading (MTA); security; and the positive and potentially negative impact on area businesses and residents. A detailed explanation of the Saturday evening, weekly Festival is provided in the attached San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce proposal, and in the "Traffic and Parking Mitigation Study Summary." Included in the Traffic Study is the coordination of the two events (Civic Auditorium/ Festival), parking for Civic Auditorium patrons as well as the general public, and access, traffic flow and signage. The Traffic Study provides for maximizing existing parking facilities, improvements to traffic circulation and improved knowledge of Festival and Mission District access and parking. 3 The "Traffic and Parking Study," was prepared in association with Forseyth Associates, the firm which prepared the transportation plans for the Los Angeles Olympic Games and other events attracting millions of people. Briefly, the event will take place on Mission Drive between Broadway and Junipero Serra, and is expected to attract 3,000 or more people. The festival is comprised of five (5) components: Arts and craft booths, certified farmer's market, entertainment, food booths and children's activities. The event will run between 5:00 and 9:00 p.m. with street closures beginning at 4:00 p.m. and event closing/ takedown and reopening of streets from 9:00 to 10:30 p.m. Festival Operations Street Closures Festival operations and vendor set-up require closure of Mission Drive from Broadway to Junipero Sena to begin at 4:00 p.m. The festival will operate from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. with the street reopened at approximately 10:00 p.m. (Santa Anita Street will remain open to through traffic for emergency vehicles and local traffic.) Auditorium Event Coordination / Parking The Civic Auditorium schedules matinee and evening events. Matinee performances typically are released between 4:00 and 5:00 p.m. Evening performance patrons typically arrive around 6:30 p.m. Primary concern of City and Auditorium staff was to maintain control of the parking lots for Civic Auditorium patrons and provide alternate traffic patterns for evening performances. It was determined that 500 vehicles will require parking accommodations for an average Civic Auditorium event. The Civic Auditorium and San Gabriel Medical Center parking facility(Lots 1 and 2) have been designated for parking Civic Auditorium patrons and for Auditorium staff (cast members, band members, etc.). By using reserved stacked parking, professional parking services, and valet parking, a total of 525 vehicles can be accommodated in Lots 1 and 2 for Auditorium patrons and staff. Included in the increased parking availability for the Civic Auditorium lot is allowing for passenger drop off, handicap parking and day of event ticket purchasers. Cost for professional parking services will be recovered utilizing the existing parking fee structure established by the Civic Auditorium and through implementing valet parking. Festival Parking A review of the City of Monrovia's"Parking Study . . " provided valuable information about festival parking and festival peak hours of operation. The evening peak period for the Monrovia's festival is between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. The study indicates over 900 parking spaces are required to accommodate visitors to Monrovia's festival. 4 Total available parking spaces within the San Gabriel Mission District and proximity total 1824 of which 521 parking spaces are available for festival parking. Additionally, on-street parking is available totaling 542 spaces of which 411 are available for Festival parking. Therefore, the combined Mission District Family Festival parking spaces totaling 932 (521 + 411) provides for more festival parking than is provided in Monrovia (900). In addition, an option is available to initiate a shuttle bus service if festival demand warrants. Funding for the shuttle service can be financed from Proposition A Transportation Funds. Festival parking includes but is not limited to: City Hall City Parking Lot (Las Tunas) San Gabriel High School lots (2) Auto Cub CHEC Building Traffic Flow Traffic circulation focuses on Civic Auditorium traffic and festival traffic. The above street closures alter the traffic pattern to be directed in the following manner. By establishing the festival at the intersection of Junipero Serra and Mission / Ramona, the festival is visible to the general public. Festival traffic will be directed to Junipero Sen-a Drive. Civic Auditorium traffic will utilize existing directional paths and will enter the parking lots from Broadway. All Auditorium parking will be clearly identified and directed to the Auditorium and Medical Center parking entrances. Signage Increased and improved signage will direct traffic to the Civic Auditorium and Festival parking, and to the Mission District. Supplemental, portable "A" frame signs will be located on Broadway, Junipero Sent and Ramona. It is requested that two Festival banners be hung at the north and south Festival area for the duration of the Festival season, and two additional banners to be hung and displayed at locations at the City's discretion. Area Business /Residents Contact has been made with the Mission District Partnership, District businesses, area businesses and residents for their input to mitigate and resolve any concerns they may have, and to solicit their recommendations for a successful Saturday evening, Family Festival. The Family Festival is 5 supported by a majority of the Mission District Partnership, District businesses, the Music Theater of Southern California, and a number of area residents and businesses. Security Security services will be provided by five (5) staff personnel hired by the festival manager. In addition, initially a total of five (5) uniformed officers (which includes one (1) motor officer to monitor the traffic situation the first few Saturdays), will be provided by the City of San Gabriel. No security problems or difficulties are anticipated. Festival Management /Insurance /Financial Responsibility The San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce assumes full financial responsibility for production fees per their contract with the manager of the Family Festival. The manager of the Family Festival, Valley Hardware Productions, hired by the San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce, will provide all management sufficient to run the show and crew to set up and take down equipment and clean the event area. The San Gabriel Chamber of Commerce and Valley Hardware Productions will provide all insurance certificates required by the City, and shall provide the City with proof of liability insurance naming the City of San Gabriel as an additional insured. Analysis The Mission District Family Festival is a major economic and public relations marketing event for the City of San Gabriel, the San Gabriel Mission District and the Mission District Partnership. M a major economic and public relations marketing event, the Family Festival will implement the goals of the City of San Gabriel and the Mission District Partnership to, "cooperatively develop, promote and market the District as a destination for tourism, culture, entertainment, dining and shopping." By implementing the recommendations contained in the "Traffic and Parking Mitigation Study Synopsis," the City will maximize the opportunity to educate the public about the Mission District and available parking, and maximize improvements to existing parking facilities, traffic circulation, access, and assure parking for Civic Auditorium patrons No permanent environmental impact is projected and the festival is categorically exempt from CEQA under Class 4 (e), (minor alterations to land). Conclusion The family-oriented festival will enhance the community experience for everyone and strengthen the unity of the community by providing a eathering place where people can enjoy arts and craft booths, a certified farmer's market, entertainment, food booths and children's activities. As a hub of government, commercial, social, historical, cultural and spiritual activities in San Gabriel, 6 the Family Festival will showcase and enhance the visual quality of the pedestrian-oriented Mission District to visitors, tourists and the community at large. The festival will assist in providing visitors with a positive experience as we bring them in to see some of the other improvements to the District and the opportunities available for conducting business, or for dining and entertainment. As a major economic and public relations marketing event, the Saturday evening, Mission District family festival will assist in implementing the vision, goals and key issues identified by the City of San Gabriel and the Mission District Partnerships by: • Strengthening the unity of the community by expanding and highlighting community strengths. • Providing pedestrian friendly, active streets full of people with opportunities for children and families. • Educating the public about San Gabriel's ethnic and cultural diversity, and historic and cultural legacy. • Marketing, promoting and increasing knowledge about San Gabriel and its significance as the "Birthplace of the Los Angeles region." • Showcasing the Mission District.

MICHAEL PAULES, CITY MANAGER FROM: DOUGLAS BENASH, R. C.E. , ASSOCIATE ENGINEE1 DATE: APRIL 15, 1997 RE : SAN GABRIEL FAMILY FESTIVAL TRAFFIC AND PARKING MITIGATION STUDY The Engineering Division has completed a comprehensive Traffic and Parking Study for the San Gabriel Family Festival . The following is a summary of the findings and recommendations of that study. The purpose of the study was to provide maximization of existing parking facilities, project coordination and improvements to the traffic circulation patterns anticipated for the event . Festival operations require the closure of Mission Drive and sufficient time for vendor set up. Street closure is scheduled to begin at 4 : 00 PM, the festival operates from 5 : 00 PM to 9 : 00 PM with the street reopened at approximately 10 : 00 PM. The Civic Auditorium schedules matinee and evening events. Matinee performances typically are released between 4 : 00 PM and 5 : 00 PM. Evening performance patrons typically begin arriving at the Civic Auditorium around 6 : 30 PM. COORDINATION WITH AUDITORIUM EVENTS From the onset, concerns were expressed by the Civic Auditorium regarding the feasibility of coordinating two traffic and patron events within one location. The festival requires the closure of Mission Drive from Broadway to Junipero Serra Drive. Santa Anita Street will remain open to through traffic for emergency vehicles and local traffic . The street closures alter the established traffic patterns associated with the operations of the Civic Auditorium. Current operations of the Civic Auditorium allow access to the parking lot from Mission Drive. Mission Drive allows access for day of event ticket purchases by patrons. Day of event ticket purchases are incorporated into the proposed parking operations. The primary concern of City and Auditorium staff is to maintain control of the parking lots for Civic Auditorium event patrons . The ability of the Civic Auditorium to maintain control of the parking lots (Parking Lot 1 and 2, see attached Parking Lot Location Map) is of paramount importance. It is recommended that both parking lots , Lots 1 and 2 , be reserved exclusively for Auditorium patrons utilizing a stacked parking arrangement . Parking in Lot 1 can be increased from 146 to 189 vehicles at a minimum with allowances for passenger drop off, handicap parking and day of event ticket purchasers . Lot 2 parking can be increased from 164 to 336 vehicles . A total of 525 vehicles can be parked in Lots 1 and 2 exclusively by Civic Auditorium patrons . The Civic Auditorium parking requirements average 500 vehicles per performance. The stacked parking arrangements provide parking spaces for 525 vehicles . It is anticipated the additional vehicle parking can be provided when necessary utilizing off-site valet parking locations without impacting the parking demand of the festival . It is recommended that a professional parking service be utilized for performing the valet operations at the Auditorium. The cost for the professional parking service will be recovered from the fees paid by persons who choose to utilize the service . No change in parking fees is proposed for Auditorium patrons who utilize self- parking in Parking Lots 1 and 2 , Auditorium Lot and Medical Center Lot . The recommended stacked parking arrangements provide maximization of the parking lots while providing Civic Auditorium Patrons close and secured parking. To facilitate stacked parking, additional drive approaches will be required to be constructed on Broadway. The additional drive approaches promote more efficient vehicular movement for stacked parking, plus proper fire lanes and vehicular lanes for valet service, passenger drop off, will call ticket/day of event ticket purchases and handicap parking locations . Valet service, passenger drop off, and will call/day of event ticket purchases will be able to maneuver to the covered walkway in the Auditorium parking lot. FESTIVAL PARKING A review of the City of Monrovia' s "Parking Study, Central Business District" provides information regarding Monrovia' s festival parking and festival peak hours of operation. The evening peak period for the Monrovia festival is between 7 :30 PM and 8 :30 PM. The study indicates that over 900 parking spaces are required to accommodate the victors of the festival . The total available off street parking spaces within the Mission District and proximity totals 1824 of which 521 parking spaces are available for festival parking. Additionally, on street parking is available which totals 542 spaces of which 411 are available for festival parking. The total festival parking spaces equals 932 which is greater than the 900 parking space demand determined by the Monrovia Parking Study. The attached Parking Lot Location Map indicates parking lot locations, available spaces and on street parking, available spaces . If festival demand warrants, the establishment of an off- site parking lot with shuttle service can be developed. Funding for the shuttle service and related costs can be financed from Proposition A, Transportation Funds . TRAFFIC CIRCULATION Traffic circulation focuses on two major operational functions, Civic Auditorium traffic and festival traffic. With the festival entrance at the intersection of Junipero Serra Drive and Mission/Ramona, the festival is visible to the general public from Junipero Serra Drive. Therefore, festival traffic will be directed to Junioero Serra Drive. Civic Auditorium traffic will utilize existing directional paths . The attached, Directional Signage Map, indicates the proposed sign locations and traffic flow patterns. All signs are to three feet wide by five feet wide ( 3 ' x 5' ) . The cost of the signs 'can be funded by Gasoline Tax Funds . The proposed signs are to indicate "Civic Auditorium" and "Family Festival" . Supplemental , portable "A" frame signs are to be utilized on Broadway, Junipero Serra and Ramona. The attached Portable "A" Frame Signage Details provide preliminary signs and locations . The analysis of the "Traffic and Parking Study, San Gabriel Family Festival" indicates a high probability of success for the Civic Auditorium and the Mission District .
