Re:  
Parking Memo for Existing and Future Boeing Manufacturing Buildings                                
NEC Greenfield Road and McDowell Road – Mesa, Arizona 
Dear Mr. Mancuso: 
This letter outlines our findings regarding the required and provided parking for the Boeing site located 
near the northeast corner of Greenfield Road and McDowell Road in Mesa, Arizona. The project is a 
Boeing manufacturing facility that currently has an existing 158,528 square feet (SF) building. The site 
plan indicates the existing building will be expanded to the north. The proposed addition is 
approximately 263,386 SF and will maintain the same manufacturing operations. The existing building 
and proposed building are expected to have a maximum of 185 and 215 employees a day, respectively, 
as the majority of the advanced aeronautics manufacturing is completed using large machinery and 
tooling stations. The purpose of this report is to demonstrate that the existing and future parking spaces 
are expected to provide sufficient parking based on Client information for the maximum demand of the 
site and unique manufacturing operations. The proposed site plan is attached.   
Each building will operate in three shifts a day with a maximum number if 120 and 130 employees a 
shift in the existing and proposed building, respectively. Table 1 identify the number of employees in 
each shift within the existing and proposed building.

The existing parking field provides 274 parking spaces. The proposed site plan indicates the parking 
field will be expanded to supply an additional 278 spaces. The total number of employees and parking 
spaces for the entire development is expected to be 400 and 552, respectively. For purposes of this 
analysis and to remain conservative, it is anticipated that the parking demand for the site would require 
supporting overlapping of all three shifts. Under these circumstances, it is expected that a maximum of 
400 employes would require parking spaces.  
The City of Mesa Zoning Ordinance, Section 11-32-3 contains a parking requirement for an industrial 
category which is summarized below. As mentioned, this site is a unique manufacturing land use; 
however, for purposes of determining the City Code required parking, the parking requirements for

industrial land use were utilized. Table 2 identifies the existing and future building parking requirements 
based on the City of Mesa’s code.

Per the City of Mesa On-Site Parking Code, the number of parking required for the entire site based on 
building square footage is 703 parking spaces. The site is expected to provide a total number of 552 
parking spaces. This results in a 21.5% decrease from the code required parking. 
The Client provided information indicates that the unique land use requires one (1) parking space per 
employee and 0.2 parking spaces per employee to account for guests and miscellaneous visitors. This 
allows the parking to be sufficiently utilized without constructing an excess of unused parking spaces. 
The parking required for each building is shown below in Table 3.

The total parking spaces required based on the number of employees are 480 parking spaces. The site 
is expected to provide an excess of 72 spaces.  
Per the City of Mesa On-Site Parking Code, the number of parking spaces required for the entire site 
based on building square footage is 703 parking spaces. The site currently has a maximum of 185 
employees and 274 parking spaces. The proposed expansion is expected to employ an additional 215 
employees and 278 parking spaces. At peak parking demand, it is expected that 400 employees would 
require parking spaces. Due to the unique manufacturing and operations of the site, the site’s parking 
demand is anticipated to be dependent on the number of employees. Therefore, it is expected that the 
552 spaces would provide an adequate parking supply to meet the conservative parking demand of 
480 spaces.
