During the Spring of 2020, the City Council proactively implemented the Temporary Expanded Dining/Retail Program or “TED” which authorized businesses to provide outdoor sales, dining, and other services. The program was a resounding success and all businesses who participated in TED survived and, in some cases, thrived as Temecula was one of the first in the region to implement such a program. Due to the success of the program, the City and local businesses desired to make the program permanent. However, several barriers to making the program permanent arose, including loss of parking; ADA requirements; outside agency fees; truck deliveries; etc. Due to potential hurdles and City Council decision, the program ended when the license agreements expired on July 1, 2021. After the TED program ended, Staff was directed to explore parklets as an option to provide areas to rest, observe, dine, interact, and keep the streets active in Old Town. ANALYSIS The draft proposal was shaped by the City Council Old Town Steering Subcommittee (Councilmember Schwank and then Councilmember Brown) and a community open house meeting to gather community input and feedback. The proposal provides recommendations for potential location(s), design, and theme (dining, seating, dog park, etc.) as well as constraints that may limit parklets to certain areas of Old Town. RECOMMENDATION Staff is recommending the Old Town Local Advisory Committee review the proposal and provide general recommendations regarding the same. ATTACHMENT Exhibit A: Old Town Parklets Proposal CITY OF TEMECULA OCTOBER 2024 OLD TOWN PARKLETS Prepared by: ACKNOWLEDGMENTS & CONTENTS 01 03 02 04 Introduction 03 22 06 12 Timeline and Process Outreach and Discussions Recommendations City Council James “Stew” Stewart, Mayor Brenden Kalfus, Mayor Pro Tem Zak Schwank, Councilmember Jessica Alexander, Councilmember Planning Commission Bob Hagel, Chairman Lanae Turley-Trejo, Vice Chair Gary Watts, Commissioner Adam Ruiz, Commissioner Fernando Solis, Commissioner City of Temecula Executive Staff Aaron Adams, City Manager Kevin Hawkins, Assistant City Manager Luke Watson, Deputy City Manager Peter Thorson, City Attorney 3 CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Introduction What is a Parklet? Parklets are affordable public spaces promoting street safety and local businesses while fostering community and providing space for people. These semi-permanent installations serve various purposes like outdoor dining, open spaces , or recreation, offering both significance and modularity. Project Background In the midst of Covid, temporary parklets became popular in Old Town Temecula as a means to provide safe outdoor dining areas for customers. Following upon this success, the City of Temecula is launching a pilot parklets program to test feasibility and placement of parklets within Old Town. These parklets will further activate Old Town Temecula through placemaking, create a family-friendly environment, encourage pedestrian activity, and provide additional seating, gathering space, and open space for the community to enjoy. The City hosted a community open house and held a meeting with the Old Town Steering Subcommittee to solicit feedback on potential locations, uses, and design. This memo outlines feedback and recommendations that came out of these discussions. Project Goals & Strategies GOAL 1: Activate the street scene beyond Old Town Front Street and introduce more foot traffic to side streets. GOAL 2: Support Old Town feeling as a family-friendly destination by incorporating a range of play areas, educational opportunities, and spaces for people to gather. GOAL 3: Reframe the thinking that parklets are a response to Covid and are instead effective placemaking solutions. 4 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY Existing Conditions Site Analysis Old Town Temecula is substantially built out with some vacant land along 3rd Street, 4th Street, and 5th Street. This site analysis evaulated potential locations for parklets, considering existing street parking and infrastructure, such as streetlights, utility boxes, storm drain inlets, fire hydrants, trees, curbs, and curb cuts. Opportunities and Constraints OPPORTUNITIES The following is a list of opportunities and potential sites identified through the site analysis: Locations adjacent to a bulbout (see callout ‘A’ on Figure 1). Locations with unused space left from insufficient dimensions for a parking space. Establishing a parklet on side streets will help encourage foot traffic beyond Old Town Front Street. CONSTRAINTS Some businesses may not want a parklet in front of their establishment, while others may want a parklet to increase foot traffic. Old Town Front Street is a less desirable location due to vehicle traffic and parking limitations. Existing slopes on the side streets creates additional challenges. Based on the analysis, four opportunity sites on Old Town Front Street were identified. The sites are located at: The southeast (SE) corner of Old Town Front Street / 6th Street, The SE corner of Old Town Front Street / 5th Street, The northwest (NW) corner of Old Town Front Street / Main Street, and The NW corner of Old Town Front Street / 3rd Street. In addition, two locations on the side streets have been identified as opportunity sites. These sites are on: 6th Street adjacent to the Farmer’s Market site, and Along Main Street in front of Pennypickle’s Workshop and adjacent to the Murrieta Creek Trail. The six identified sites would have the least impact on the existing parking and infrastructure due to their locations. (See Figure 1). 5 CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION Figure 1. Existing Conditions Analysis Map A A A A 6 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY Outreach and Discussions Community Open House The community open house for the Temecula Parklets Program, hosted by the City of Temecula, was held on October 11, 2023 and was attended by 15 people. The purpose of the open house was to hear input from community members on the desired location, design and use of the pilot parklet. In an excerise focused on potential uses, community members were asked to vote on their most desired parklet use and were also encouraged to provide additional comments and/or ideas on sticky notes. For the design exercise, community members had the opportunity to learn about the proposed design themes and understand the possibilities of what a parklet can look like. Regarding potential locations, community members were encouraged to interact with a large-format map of Old Town and identify desirable locations for parklets with green sticker dots and non-desirable locations with red sticker dots. They were also encouraged to provide sticky note comments on the map for any additional comments and/ or ideas. The following pages summarize the feedback received during the open house. 7 CHAPTER 2.

Old Town Creek Trail).” “I would like to see a music focused parklet that incorporates musical instruments and performances.” “I think shade structures are preferred over umbrellas or sails because of the breeze and winds.” “Would love an occasional fall street closure for walking and park space.” “I would like a place to study with charging outlets.” “It would be great to see a pollinator garden with educational information.” “I would love a park space but is there enough room?” Additional Ideas We Heard!Where would you like to see a parklet? Where would you not like to see a parklet? No long walls on street side (vehicular traffic side) to maintain visibility. Avoid pinch points along narrow sidewalks. Most people walk on the south side of Old Front St. because of shade. ■Shade structures are more necessary on the north side of Front Street. Consider parklets on the side streets to encourage foot traffic and help businesses gain visibility. Parklets at the far side of the intersection is preferable in order to maintain stop sign visibility. Consider parklets by the Farmer’s Market for people to sit, eat, and relax. Consider parklets on 5th and/or 6th St. areas to encourage foot traffic beyond Main St. area. Restaurant customers are often times sitting on the sidewalk due to no seating options in the area. Some restaurants have crowds of customers standing and waiting for their tables. 11 CHAPTER 2. OUTREACH AND DISCUSSIONS Old Town Steering Subcommittee Meeting The Old Town Steering Subcommittee met on November 14, 2023 and provided the following feedback on the project. Location Side streets are more desirable to help activate and encourage people to explore beyond Old Town Front Street, and easier to remove/move the parklets as necessary. Considerations: ■5th Street – best location, restaurant fronting on where the parklet would go. ■4th Street – a little hidden location. ■3rd Street – empty restaurants. ■As you travel east, the street slope increases, making it more difficult to install a parklet. Recommended locations include 6th Street by the Farmer’s Market and deli across the street, by the Old Town Temecula Community Theatre and/or Pennypickle’s Workshop. Visit Temecula Valley has a desire to activate the creek walk and encourage the use of the trail. ■Participants brought up the cul-de-sac on 3rd Street; however, there is no existing direct connection to the creek trail due to the grade difference. ■Possibility to construct a sidewalk connection through an encroachment permit. ■The City is getting permits for trail lighting early to mid- 2024. Limitations Old Town Front St. is less desirable due to parking limitations, congestion, and infrastructure limitations, such as storm drain inlets, fire hydrants, and stop signs. Consider avoiding the frontage of the restaurants due to limited parking. Cost Consider mobility, labor, and wages. Consider the cost difference in movable vs stationary parklet. Is there an annual maintenance cost? Putting in solar panels will increase cost – prefer relying on street lighting. Amenities & Design Seating and play areas are desirable for families. Play areas can be an extension of Pennypickle’s Workshop. Old Town historical style and bridge motif are desirable parklet designs. Additional Considerations The Old Town Steering Committee may consider reaching out to Old Town Local Review Board to get a buy in on Front Street. Address vagrancy and the unhoused. There are no areas for people to lay down. Power outlets are not desirable as they quickly become a nuisance. Other options may include: wireless chargers, solar umbrellas, etc. Lighting can be solar with string lights and tied into the theme. 12 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY Recommendations Location Recommendations Based on the findings and feedback from the existing conditions analysis and public outreach, three sites stand out as desirable locations for the pilot parklet project (see Figure 2). The sites are front of Pennypickle’s Workshop on Main Street, adjacent to the bike racks on 6th Street, and adjacent to Murrieta Creek at the end of 5th Street. These locations can accomodate either stationary and mobile parklet designs, however, for the purposes of our analysis, we assume that the parklets will be mobile. Figure 2. Recommended Parklets Locations 13 CHAPTER 3. RECOMMENDATIONS Site condition in front of Pennypickle’s Workshop on Main St. 1. Front of Pennypickle’s Workshop on Main Street Benefits and/or Constraints Establishing a parklet in front of Pennypickle’s Workshop on Main Street will be effective in creating a family-friendly space for the public. The parklet can act as an extension of the museum and provide activities and a play area for children to enjoy. Currently, there are three marked street parking spaces on Main Street in front of Pennypickle’s Workshop. The parklet will require the removal of one or more parking spaces in order to accommodate a safe play area for children. The southern most parking space is not ideal due to its proximity to the storm drain inlet, streetlight, and trashcans. The remaining two are suitable for parklet installation. Recommendation It is recommended that the pilot parklet project be installed in front of Pennypickle’s Workshop on Main Street. In addition to providing a family-friendly gathering space, Main Street is the center of Old Town Temecula and also provides an established connection to the creek trail. This 2. Adjacent to the Bike Racks on 6th Street Benefits and/or Constraints The Old Town Temecula Farmer’s Market is held every Saturday morning at the public parking lot on 6th Street where there is currently a lack of seating/eating area for attendees to enjoy their food, socialize, and rest. Establishing a parklet on 6th Street will not only provide the Farmer’s Market with much needed seating/eating area, but it will also help activate 6th Street on other days where the street does not get as much foot traffic. In addition, on the off days, the parklet could be an addition to the existing bicycle facility. Currently, there are 19 marked street parking spaces on 6th Street between Old Town Front Street and Mercedes Street. The parklet will require the removal of one parking space directly adjacent to the bike racks in order to accommodate for a safe seating/eating area for users. Recommendation This location has good visibility and functionality serving as a rest area for Farmer’s Market on weekends and as a rest Site condition on 6th St. adjacent to the bike racks high visibility is likely to be more successful in activating the creek trail and encouraging pedestrian activity beyond Old Town Front Street. area for cyclists on weekdays. The 6th Street location is recommended as a second option following the Pennypickle’s Workshop location. 14 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY 3. End of 5th Street Adjacent to Murrieta Creek Benefits and/or Constraints With an interest in activating the Murrieta Creek trail, this location was selected to encourage foot traffic towards the creek from Old Town Front Street. The parklet can act as a space for community members to enjoy the view of the creek, the rolling hills and people-watch. Recommendation This location is not recommended as a potential pilot parklet location due to several site constraints and issues, as outlined to the right. Instead, it is recommended that a permanent pocket park be constructued adjacent to the creek for trail activation, as illustrated in Figure 3. Fixed Location and Limited Flexibility ■There is no existing parallel parking space to accommodate a parklet. ■This location serves as an alley for delivery and loading vehicles, with minimal existing businesses for the parklet to serve. ■There is little flexibility for movement due to access requirements. ■Restriping of parking spaces would be necessary to allow for ADA access from an adjacent parking stall or directly across the drive aisle. ■A ramp would be required to connect the parking lot paving to the parklet platform. ■Accessing the adjacent creek trail is challenging due to elevation differences, necessitating an accessible ramp. This addition could be costly and would limit the parklet’s mobility. Security Concerns ■Without adequate lighting, there may be potential security issues associated with the parklet. Programming and Visibility Challenges ■The parklet’s location, not directly adjacent to a building or on a street, could impact programming and visibility. ■The lack of proximity to pedestrian foot traffic areas may reduce its use and effectiveness.Site condition at the end of 5th St. adjacent to Murrieta Creek 15 CHAPTER 3.

RUSTIC Rustic design highlights natural and raw elements, including reclaimed and unfinished wood and stone. This style has an aged, simple, and casual look. Raw wood Old Town Temecula maintains the American Old West style of the 1800s. Typical elements include wooden and rust-colored materials inspired by local history and landmarks. OLD TOWN HISTORICAL Palomar Inn Yard Outdoor dining 17 CHAPTER 3. RECOMMENDATIONS Programming Recommendations The following section outlines three types of programming options for the pilot parklet. Discovery Parklet Discovery parklet will serve as an extension of Pennypickle’s Workshop to provide an interactive, family-friendly environment for Old Town visitors. The parklet may feature elements such as magnetic chalkboards artificial turf, native plant garden, pop- up play elements, and themed sculptures. Dining Parklet The main goal of a dining parklet is to serve surrounding restaurants in Old Town. They provide restaurants the opportunity to create an inviting space for people to enjoy their meals on the street, while also beautifying the surrounding landscape. Restaurant parklets typically feature seating, tables, shade, and greenery like planters and trees. Lounge Parklet Lounge parklet provides Old Town visitors with an opportunity to sit and relax without the need to enter an establishment. Users can enjoy the shade and seating, people-watch, and interact with people. The parklet may feature elements such as seating, sunshade umbrellas, table top games and activities, and native plant gardens. 18 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY DISCOVERY PARKLET Pennypickle’s Workshop Parklet Location Interactive learning and discovery features Flexible artificial turf space for pop-up play elements such as ‘Big Blue Blocks’ Sculpture/ agricultural-related instagrammable moment Planters and overhead shade element Outdoor chalkboards Stackable/modular benches Keynotes 1.

RECOMMENDATIONS The goal of kit-of-parts is to develop a coherent design from a set of modular pieces that can be combined to create a parklet, utilizing different elements such as benches, umbrellas, and planters. These modular pieces will act as building blocks with numerous possible combinations, creating unique parklets that respond to the specific location/use, while also providing continuity with the existing Old Town Temecula theming and style. These modular components are also standardized to simplify construction and assembly. The following figure illustrates how modular elements can be manipulated and combined to create unique parklet experiences across Old Town Temecula. Notes: *Design intent is for parklet to be made up of modular sections not exceeding 3500lbs allowing parklet to be moved by City equipment **Parklet Kit-of-Parts will vary slightly depending on parklet type (dining, lounge etc.) WEATHERING STEEL OVERHEAD STRUCTURE WITH SHADE FABRIC INFILL CALIFORNIA NATIVE GARDEN TO ATTRACT BUTTERFLIES INTERACTIVE TUBE FEATURE PAINTED IN PENNYPICKLE’S BRAND COLORS ARTIFICIAL TURF OVER PLATFORM TO SOFTEN SURFACE FOR CHILDREN’S PLAY SIDEWALK PAVING GRAPHICS PAINTED IN PENNYPICKLE’S BRAND COLORS EXISTING PARKING SPACE WHERE PARKLET WILL RESIDE INTERACTIVE POP-UP FEATURE SUCH AS BIG BLUE BUILDING BLOCKS FOR CHILDREN’S PLAY EVENTS STACKABLE/ MODULAR WOODEN BENCHES WEATHERING STEEL PLANTERS WITH MAGNETIC CHALKBOARD INTEGRATED ONTO PLANTER EDGE 22’ 8’ Pennypickle’s Workshop Parklet Location DISCOVERY PARKLET KIT-OF-PARTS 22 CITY OF TEMECULA PARKLETS STUDY Finalize pilot parklet(s) location(s).
