contractor. The site is located south of Mulberry Street and

a trip generation analysis. The proposal is to convert an
W

existing 3600 square foot former service station to this
C7
i
office use. As part of this project, the owner desires to
build a four vehicle garage on the site to store business
N
vehicles, primarily pick-up trucks, overnight. The number of
employees that may come to this site on a daily basis would
be eight; however,.some would leave to go to a job site. No
building materials will be stored at this site.
Trip Generation, 5th Edition, ITE was used to calculate
the trip generation. Single tenant office building (code 715)
was used in this calculation. Two variables were used to
calculate the trip generation. Using the area of the building
as the variable, the following daily and peak hour traffic was
calculated:
