Calculate 5% of the tenant occupant FTE, to determine the number of carpool and vanpool preferred parking spaces will need to be allocated. Assuming that all carpools will have two occupants per vehicle the calculation will be as follows. However, if you know there will be more occupants per vehicles, adjust the calculations to reflect the difference. Consequently, you may not need to provide as many parking spaces but will need to justify the reasoning in a short narrative.
- Total required preferred parking spaces = (FTE X 0.05) ÷ 2.
