1 Planning Commission Staff Report DATE: June 19, 2014 TO: SUBJECT: Planning Commission 2014 Genentech Annual Report, including a review of the Genentech Campus Master Plan (P ), as required under SSFMC Section Case Nos.: P : PCA RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Planning Commission accept the 2014 Genentech Annual Report as required under SSFMC Section BACKGROUND The Genentech Master Plan Overlay District Regulations (SSFMC Chapter ) includes a requirement for an Annual Development Review. The Annual Development Review has been termed the Annual Report. By Code, the Annual Report must include the following as appropriate: Status of facility-wide improvements; Progress in completing the required tasks outlined in the Genentech Facilities Ten-Year Master Plan (2007) Implementation Program; Information about anticipated new construction or renovation projects; An update on campus transportation and parking needs; An update on mobile vendor (employee amenity) activities on campus; A general update on the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program; An update on any changes to the security program; Any proposed changes to the use of facilities, the facility-wide development standards or design guidelines; and Any changes that have been made to the Master Plan since the previous Annual Report. Background & Genentech Master Plan Founded in 1976, Genentech is one of the nation s largest biotechnology companies. The company has expanded their South San Francisco operations from a single converted warehouse to a 173 acre campus that includes a mix of office, research and development, and manufacturing functions. In 2007, the City adopted Genentech s second campus Master Plan (the first was approved in 1995). The 2007 Genentech Facilities Ten-Year Master Plan (Master Plan) is a comprehensive document that covers most of the items required in the Annual Report.

2 STAFF REPORT SUBJECT: Genentech Annual Report DATE: June 19, 2014 Page 2 DISCUSSION The 2014 Annual Report is comprised of the following sub-areas: 1. Genentech 2013/14 Campus Development and Build-out 2. Transportation Demand Management and Parking 3. Changes to Use, Security, Development Standards, and Design Guidelines 4. Mobile Vendor Services and Amenities 5. Master Plan Implementation Program The complete report is included as an attachment to this staff report and is summarized briefly below: 2013/14 Campus Development and Build-out The land area included in the Master Plan is over 173 acres, which expanded over previous years as part of the adopted zoning changes and Master Plan amendments by the Planning Commission in Genentech continues to lease additional space outside of the Master Plan District (including the Gateway area); however, last year s Master Plan amendments incorporated the vast majority of owned or leased buildings operated by Genentech. The building use and distribution has increased slightly from 2013 with a total of 3.48 million square feet of office, lab, manufacturing, warehouse and amenity building uses. The floor area ratio (FAR) across the Master Plan area has remained constant at In the most recent reporting year, Genentech has: Begun construction on Building 35 with all steel erection and structural concrete work complete; Neared completion of the Forbes Boulevard bike lane and median improvements; Installed new building signage campus-wide; Installed and/or replanted landscape improvements at Point San Bruno, B39 and the Hilltop Hillside; Repaved several parking areas; and Completed updates to the patient display program. Beyond the completed or recently started project work, Genentech anticipates the following Campus Development in : Commence the design, entitlement and construction of a new Employee Center (B34) with a link to the B35 building; Complete the B35 building and the new Hilltop Office building on the Upper Campus; Build-out the B47 lab and roof screening expansion; Install new thermal energy and nitrogen storage tanks; Install new crosswalk safety improvements at Grandview Boulevard and DNA Way; Install pedestrian safety and traffic calming improvements in the South Campus; and Commence additional operational and safety improvements at several buildings.

3 STAFF REPORT SUBJECT: Genentech Annual Report DATE: June 19, 2014 Page 3 Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and Parking Genentech s most recent commuter survey conducted by Nelson/Nygaard Consulting Associates (included in the 2014 Annual Report as an attachment) indicates that Genentech has achieved a 43% mode shift within the newly expanded Master Plan, which exceeds the 35% required based on the Floor Area Ratio at the campus. As noted in the Annual Report, Genentech offers carpool incentives for employees, a campus-wide bicycle program, guaranteed ride home services for all TDM commuters, campus shuttles running on biodiesel, and commuter buses with pickup points throughout the Bay Area. There are currently 20 Genenbus routes accounting for approximately 4,800 trips per day. Over the last year, the gride program, as it is named, has continued to eliminate 900,000 vehicle trips, which amounts to saving over 20 million vehicle miles travelled (VMT) and 14 million pounds of CO2 emissions. Genentech s parking demand analysis indicates that there is a Campus wide surplus of parking, largely due to these successful TDM measures. Changes to Use, Security, Development Standards and Design Guidelines Although there have been no major changes to the facility usage and security of the campus, there have been some minor changes to the site furnishings throughout the campus. These changes were prompted by the introduction of a new recycling program and the need for outdoor furniture that will be resilient to the local climate. Sample images are included in the attached report on page 16. Amenities and Mobile Vendor Services In an effort to reduce vehicle trips and improve employee convenience, Genentech continues to offer cafeteria and food services, fitness facilities, childcare, and other employee support services. In addition, Genentech offers several Mobile Vendor Services (MVS), which also reduce vehicle miles travelled. The MVS include: hair cutting facilities, dental offices, bike repairs and car washes. Additionally, as part of the Master Plan amendments in 2013, Genentech agreed to operate a lunchtime shuttle pilot program, which operates on weekdays between 11AM and 2PM and provides Genentech employees transportation between the campus east of US-101 and downtown. Although early results were promising, the current ridership has not met the goal of 60 daily users. Instead, the shuttle averages fewer than 20 daily users on Fridays when the shuttle is most popular. While this is far below Genentech s ridership goal, the company s management has recently authorized an additional six months of operation to continue to develop the service and interest in the downtown s restaurants. Genentech has proposed some program modifications, including: Reducing shuttle service to Tuesday, Thursday and Friday to aggregate ridership; Adding a pick-up/drop-off location at the Gateway Campus; and Additional promotion of the service to employees (current promotion includes internal announcements and shuttle shelter signage). The Genentech Goes to Town event in September has successfully encouraged employees to visit downtown restaurants during the first two weeks of September and averages over 100 daily participants. Although that event includes subsidies to employees, staff continues to believe that this shuttle service has the potential to be a valuable opportunity to reinforce the connection between downtown and the City s

Staff will continue to monitor the pilot program and work with Genentech to evaluate the program s success and capacity. Master Plan Implementation Program Appendix A of the Annual Report includes the Implementation Program items that Genentech is responsible for as part of the Master Plan. The shaded items are complete. Examples of completed items in 2013/14 include the installation of class II bike lanes along Forbes Boulevard. Genentech and staff continue to work together to ensure that Implementation items are completed according to the schedule in the Master Plan Implementation Program. CONCLUSION: Genentech continues to be an exceptional corporate citizen in South San Francisco. The company is meeting or exceeding the obligations included in the Master Plan Implementation Program, and the TDM program (gride) continues to be tremendously successful. The 2014 Genentech Annual Report provides the information required per the SSFMC and staff continues to work diligently with Genentech on the Implementation Program items outlined in the Master Plan. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission accept the 2014 Annual Report as submitted by Genentech. By: Tony Rozzi, AICP, Associate Planner SK/CB/tr Attachments: 2014 Genentech Annual Report

7 INTRODUCTION Genentech, the world s first biotechnology company, was founded in 1976 and is located in South San Francisco. Genentech performs a wide range of functions at its South San Francisco campus, including research and development, clinical manufacturing, distribution, marketing, and administration. With approximately 9,600 full-time employees working in South San Francisco, Genentech remains its largest employer. GENENTECH MASTER PLAN DISTRICT In 2007, the City Council adopted the updated Genentech Ten Year Facilities Master Plan, supported by a Master Environmental Impact Report, and amended the Zoning Ordinance allowing expansion of the Genentech Research and Development Overlay District (R&D); which, in 2010, was renamed the Genentech Master Plan District. The Master Plan was originally established in 1995 to guide the company s growth and development of the Central Campus and to ensure that future growth would be consistent with goals and policies of the East of 101 Area Plan and the South San Francisco General Plan. The updated 2007 Master Plan outlines a potential expansion that would allow the Central Campus to increase up to approximately six million square feet during the ten-year planning period and serves several purposes: Articulates vision and policies that will serve as a general guide for the placement and design of individual buildings and other campus elements, as well as an overall development program to provide the basis for future approvals. Fosters a campus development befitting its setting on the City s eastern bay shore that capitalizes on views and access to the waterfront. Promotes reduction of automobile usage by offering alternatives that further the City s transportation objectives via a comprehensive Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program and improved pedestrian access to promote ease of movement between campus buildings. Establishes the basis for zoning provisions to the Genentech Master Plan District, as amended. Provides Master Plan development design guidelines for design review and approval. GENENTECH ZONING AND MASTER PLAN AMENDMENTS (2013) In 2013, the City Council adopted changes to the Zoning Map text and the 2007 Master Plan to amend the requirements as follows: Eliminate the construction of a Genentech museum for the public, food concession and public restrooms at the Lower Campus, including the acceptance of payment of a public restroom somewhere along the Bay Trail neither on nor adjacent to Genentech's property.

8 Reset of the implementation trigger date for construction of the recreational field and associated public parking at the intersection of DNA Way and Forbes Blvd to be in conjunction with the redevelopment of Building 4. Incorporate 4 new parcels into the Genentech Master Plan District Overlay of which 1 is owned by Genentech and 3 have long-term leases (See current Campus Development density, page 9, for details.) Defer the South Campus specific childcare and retail requirements until such time as Genentech no longer occupies the South Campus. Implement a South San Francisco downtown shuttle pilot program for a trial period of 6 months. PURPOSE OF THE ANNUAL REPORT The Annual Report is required by the Genentech Master Plan District ordinance (SSF Municipal Code Section (e)). It must address, as appropriate, the status of facility-wide improvements, progress in completing the required tasks and benchmarks described in the Implementation Plan, anticipated new construction or renovation projects, projected changes in the facility usage and requirements, an update on TDM and parking needs, an update on mobile vendor (employee amenity) activities on the Genentech campus, an update on the security program, advance notice of any proposed changes to the facility-wide development standards or design guidelines, and notice of any changes that have been made to the Facility Master Plan since the most recent Annual Report. Consistent with this requirement, this Annual Report is intended to accomplish several purposes: (1) provide background information and up-to-date data on the Genentech campus; (2) identify near-term projects to the extent possible; (3) provide a brief overview of Genentech s Transportation Demand Management program and parking needs and; (4) summarize the status of the Implementation Plan.

16 TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT AND PARKING TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT (TDM) The Genentech s TDM program, named gride, provides a variety of flexible and convenient programs and services to get employees to and from work, as well as around campus. Genentech s commitment to gride is demonstrated by the significant number of program services and ongoing incentives provided for employees. There are currently 20 gride commuter bus routes in addition to public transportation use via Ferry, Caltrain and BART. The gride vehicle ridership has increased to about 4,800 rides per day. The Cordon Count survey completed in October 2013 indicates that Genentech achieved a 45% alternative mode use for its existing main campus boundaries. This is the highest alternate mode share since the start of the program, and represents an additional decrease of about two additional percentage points for drive alone mode share from the prior year. Figure /2014 gride Impact Overview With the latest approved Genentech zoning changes and Master Plan amendments in 2013, the boundaries have been expanded by four parcels (see current Campus Development density, Page 8 and Figure 2, Page 10). With the expanded Master Plan boundaries, Genentech has a campus-wide alternative mode use of 43%. The impact of the gride program is significant. For the 2013 calendar year gride has supported reducing about 0.9 million vehicle trips which equates to about 20 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and reduced over 14 million pounds of CO 2 emissions. As required by Section 18.2 of the TDM Program, Appendix D of the Genentech Ten Year Master Plan, a TDM Annual Summary Report, prepared by an independent consultant, is submitted with this Annual Report (see Attachment 1). The survey data is from the fourth quarter of 2013 and captures details on all alternate mode usage and trip reduction rates. Genentech Master Plan Annual Report 14

17 PARKING Per the Master Plan, parking demand is measured by changes in growth and multimodal transportation services. The parking ratios used to determine demand are derived by building functions and TDM participation rates. Buildings whose functions have lower employee densities require fewer parking stalls. Changes to building functions will be minor and have minimal impacts to the parking ratios, but increases in TDM participation will affect more noticeable impacts that proportionately decrease parking demand. The function-based parking ratios approved with the Ten Year Master Plan are reflected in the table below. These ratios provide a 5% to 10% reserve. Parking Ratios Building Type Office R&D Mfg/Other Warehouse Parking Ratios (at 24% TDM) Parking Ratios (at 30% TDM) Parking Ratios (at 32% TDM) Parking Ratios (at 35% TDM) Parking Ratios (at 40% TDM) The following table shows the parking demand at 35% TDM and the current supply Parking Supply and Demand (at 35% TDM based parking ratios) Usable GSF Parking Demand Parking Supply 1) Total 3,877,000 6,007 8,072 Note: Usable space defined as Buildings occupied by Genentech in the Genentech Master Plan District (see Appendix C) 1) Master Plan Boundary (exclusive of 530 Forbes) With continuing success of the TDM program as well the expansion of Genentech s campus with the latest approved Genentech Zoning changes and Master Plan amendments, the parking supply was strongly increased by adding the South Campus and B56. Therefore, the supply still significantly exceeds the parking demand at parking ratios based on 35% TDM thereby providing Genentech new forms of flexibility to future developments, i.e. sharing parking supply between the South and Upper Campus.

18 CHANGES TO USE, SECURITY, DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, OR DESIGN GUIDELINES No changes are projected at this time for the facility usage and security detailed in the Genentech Facilities Ten Year Master Plan. Similarly, no changes are proposed to facility-wide development standards or design guidelines under the Genentech Facilities Ten Year Master Plan with the exception to A.8-1 Site Furnishings as described below. Provide new expanded outdoor furnishings which was prompted by: Introduction of a new waste recycling litter program requiring greater separation of waste materials. Desired utilization of newer outdoor furniture finishes shown to be more resistant to salt-spray, resilient to local microclimate conditions, and provide improved operations and aesthetics for the Genentech community.

19 MOBILE VENDOR SERVICES Consistent with the South San Francisco General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, Genentech provides amenities for employees to support overall campus function. These include: cafeteria and food services, fitness, childcare, and other miscellaneous employee support services. In addition, Genentech continues to provide on-site mobile vendor services including carwash, hair salon, dental and bike maintenance/repair services. These services are for employee convenience and help lessen traffic on local streets. Specific mobile vendor locations are noted on Figure 4.

41 This report describes the mode split and parking conditions at Genentech's headquarters in South San Francisco. Both a parking and cordon count survey were conducted on October 8 10, 2013 as part of an ongoing review and analysis of how parking lots are utilized at Genentech's three South San Francisco campuses and, more generally, how people access those campuses. This report compares the Fall 2013 results with previous parking and cordon count surveys, with attention focused on long term trends between year-to-year surveys. The report was updated in May 2014 to add the new Master Plan District, and show parking and mode share for this district. Since the district boundaries incorporate areas that were already counted, but grouped differently, the update merely incorporated existing data into the results for the Master Plan District. Note that 530 Forbes is not included, as it has not previously been counted Grandview is under construction and hence also not included. Both will be included from the fall 2014 study. PURPOSE The visual cordon count survey implemented by Nelson\Nygaard records an accurate count of the transportation modes Genentech employees use to reach work on a typical weekday. The goal is to determine the share of each transportation mode used to get to the Main Campus, South Campus and Gateway Campus on typical weekdays. Determining how employees and contractors reach work is important as it allows Genentech to best manage its land resources as the company continues to grow. Since a large portion of traffic on roadways is from people driving their cars alone, most demand management programs are designed to encourage people to travel by alternatives to the single-occupant vehicle (SOV), especially during peak commute hours when traffic is at its worst. A cordon count is used to measure the effectiveness of efforts to reduce travel via SOV. The data collected can be used to measure the following: Auto occupancy information in support of High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) and carpooling initiatives Degree of usage of public transit and alternative transportation modes Monitoring growth and impacts on road and transit facilities Genentech has over the years developed many programs giving employees alternatives to driving to work. Begun in 2006, the gride Rewards Program is Genentech's incentive program to encourage South San Francisco employees to use alternative commute options. The program s goal is to increase the percentage of employees using alternative forms of transportation to more than 30%, reducing the number of single occupancy cars coming to and parking on campus as called for in Genentech s 10-Year Master Plan. This 2013 survey provides an opportunity to analyze the program's effectiveness seven years after implementation, long enough to determine the long term effects of the program. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 1

42 Launched primarily as a rider incentive that paid employees for not driving alone to work, gride Rewards has expanded to include a host of incentives for employees who commute, including: $120 Transit Subsidy - Genentech pays $120 a month towards the employee s choice of vanpooling or Clipper cards for public transit. Prior to January 2009 the subsidy was $115. Rider Incentive Employees can earn $4 per day for BART, Caltrain, Carpool, Vanpool, Bike, Walk and Motorcycle, $2 for direct GenenBus (reduced from $4 in May 2011) Driver Incentive - Employees can earn $4 per passenger ($2 per passenger per way) for being a driver in a carpool or vanpool, up to $32 a day Preferred Parking - Carpool or vanpool drivers can use preferred parking stalls conveniently located near several building entrances throughout the campus within the Genentech Master Plan Overlay District. Guaranteed Ride Home Program Provides a way for employees who commute to work by public transportation, carpool, vanpool, biking, or walking to travel home when an unexpected need to do so arises (such as a personal emergency or unscheduled overtime). Beginning in 2010, Genentech also started offering a bicycle sharing program for all employees. Bicycle sharing provides employees with access to a fleet of shared bicycles from six stations distributed across campus, allowing them to attend business meetings, run errands or simply get some exercise during the day. While some employees use the bikes to go as far as downtown South San Francisco, the shared bikes are primarily for travel around the campus. These transportation demand management (TDM) programs and policies seek to affect the travel choices commuters make. The modes measured in this survey include: Drive alone (private auto) Carpool (private auto) - includes employees dropped off Vanpool Walk Bike Transit & connecting work-end shuttle (BART, Caltrain, GenenBus, and Alliance Shuttle) Motorcycle Taxi and Hotel/Airport Shuttles In addition to the cordon count, a parking survey was conducted to determine the parking occupancy on campus and how vehicles are distributed across its many surface lots and parking structures. Genentech s success in encouraging employees to commute by transit over the last five years has allowed some surface lots to be replaced by new buildings (e.g. Building 31 and the now under construction Building 35). This has affected where employees park, warranting continued data collection and review. Figure 1 (next page) shows how parking and buildings have changed on the upper campus of the past few years. In addition to the construction of Building 31 and removal Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 2

44 SURVEY METHODS Cordon Count Surveyors located at 13 key entrances to Genentech s three South San Francisco campuses and at three key GenenBus stops conducted the visual cordon count survey. Following are key details of the survey implementation: Genentech Security Staff were trained and utilized as surveyors by Nelson\Nygaard staff. Surveyors were stationed at key roadway and bike/walkway entrances to the Main, South, and Gateway Campuses during the survey period on each of the three days (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday). Surveyors tallied modes of arrival to the campus in the same manner on each of the three days. This allowed surveyors to ensure that if any single day had unusual counts (due to unusual circumstances, e.g. bad weather, a freeway traffic jam, public transit problems, etc.), their effect would be reduced due to the counting of three mid-week days. Surveyors conducted counts on October 8, 9 and 10, 2013 from 6 AM to 10 AM, during morning peak hours when most dayshift workers arrive. Only mornings were surveyed, as afternoon traffic is much more likely to include non-commute travelers. 1 The traffic data was collected in 15-minute intervals. Genentech Security Surveyors were located at three additional locations to determine how many transit riders reach the South Campus on BART, Caltrain and GenenBus shuttles. Transit data was for each of the three survey days was provided by Genentech. Vanpool routes were also provided by Genentech, though since passenger numbers per vanpool were not available it was assumed that each vanpool had seven riders. The various trip types that were tallied and calculated during the cordon count include: Drive Alone: All personal automobiles entering the three campuses were visually surveyed. Single-occupant vehicles were counted as such. Carpool: All personal automobiles entering the three campuses were visually surveyed. If multiple passengers were traveling together in a car, each passenger, including the driver, was counted under the carpool category. People dropped off in the immediate vicinity of a surveyor were included as carpool passengers. Vanpool: Genentech vanpool vehicles were counted by vanpool drivers instead of surveyors. 1 Surveys from April 2005 to January 2007 were conducted from 5 AM to 10 AM. Although the 5 o'clock hour accounted for 8% of employees accessing campus, the cordon count period was shortened from five to four hours to accommodate the added parking survey that takes approximately one hour to conduct. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 4

45 Walk: All pedestrians entering the campus were tallied. Surveyors were stationed and trained to differentiate between commuter and intra-campus pedestrians. Bike: All bicyclists entering the campus were counted. Taxi and Hotel/Airport Shuttles: All taxis, hotel shuttles, and airport shuttles, with passengers entering the campus, were counted by the number of passengers. If a taxi or shuttle passed the cordon point with only a driver, no data was collected. If, for example, a taxi or shuttle passed with one driver and 2 passengers, the vehicle was noted, and the number of passengers excluding the driver was counted. Transit: Genentech provided transit ridership information over the course of the three count days. Overall mode split did not include ridership on DNA or Gateway intra-campus shuttle services, since these employees had already arrived by another mode. Surveyors counted the number of passengers alighting from non-genentech shuttles such as the Alliance Utah-Grand Shuttle that serves the South Campus. Surveyor Locations Surveyors were located at the following 16 sites, which are also indicated in Figure 2 2. Main Campus Forbes entryways: (#1a and #1b) second floor of PS-1 along Forbes Boulevard to capture lower campus trips, (#11) along Forbes Boulevard at Building 54 across from Allerton Avenue, and (#12) along Forbes Boulevard, between Allerton Avenue and Gull Drive. Grandview and Upper Campus entrances: (#3) along Grandview Drive between Buildings 28 and 39 to capture upper campus trips. The area between Buildings 80 and 26 (#4), is intended to capture commuters entering the back way via a driveway from East Grand Avenue near Haskins Way however this site was closed during this survey period due to construction. South Campus Transit Surveyors: (#B) at the Upper Campus Shuttle Stop along Grandview near B24, (#C) at the top of the stairs leading from the Upper Campus to the South Campus, behind Building 24. The two surveyors captured the number of transit riders going to South Campus, which does not have a GenenBus bus stop. Gateway North Side: (#5) Executive Drive, NW corner of parking garage, (#6) Gateway Boulevard, North site near Building 84. South Side: (#7) Executive Drive, SW corner of parking garage, (#8) Gateway Boulevard, near childcare facility and Bank of America, (#9) Executive Drive at Corporate Drive, and (#10) Gateway Boulevard at Corporate Drive. 2 Note that sites 2 and 13 are no longer used, but the remaining sites use their original numbering to avoid confusion and simplify comparison with old data. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 5

46 South Campus Transit Surveyors: (#A) at the Gateway Campus Shuttle Stop next to the Parking Structure and across from Building 83.The surveyors captured the number of transit riders transferring to the DNA shuttle to South Campus, which does not have a GenenBus bus stop. South Campus East Grand Avenue (#14) where it ends and meets Building 44. All drivers heading into campus were counted. Since April 2009, vehicles entering south of Building 44 towards Parking Structure B and Building 45 were also counted since these structures are now completed. The Alliance Utah-Grand shuttles are the only transit, apart from intra-campus DNA shuttles, that go to this campus at this time. South Campus employees taking the GenenBus to work were counted by three surveyors at sites A, B, and C to determine when shuttle riders alighting at Gateway and the Main Campus, in fact walk or take the DNA shuttle to South Campus.

48 Parking Survey The parking survey was conducted at 10 AM on October 8, 9 and 10, Each surveyor or surveyor pair was assigned a series of adjacent parking zones to count occupied stalls. Parking spaces were counted by space type, including the following: General employee vehicles gride parking spaces Vanpool spaces Company and service vehicles Motorcycles Disabled Visitors Public Access (e.g. Bay Trail) Loading spaces Illegal parking (marked with a red curb, no parking, or any vehicle not in a designated parking space) Bicycle racks/cages Other specialized parking spaces As shown in Figure 2, some parking facilities were not included in the parking survey. For example, the lots around the under construction Building 35 were closed due to construction activities, meaning they constituted unavailable supply. Additionally, various other parking lots in the South San Francisco Campus that are not part of the yearly parking survey were added to the map. These might be included in future parking surveys, though given the size and types of uses of these facilities it is unlikely that their inclusion would significantly change overall occupancy levels. Survey Implementation Both surveys were carried out as planned on all three days. Overall, surveyors performed as trained. Most of the officers had participated in previous cordon counts and/or parking surveys at least once during the past five years, so only those few officers who had never conducted a cordon or parking count attended training on Monday. Each surveyor was assigned his or her own cordon count locations. The larger parking survey areas (i.e. those with large parking structures) were typically split between two surveyors, while the smaller parking survey areas were assigned to single surveyors. The weather was rather typical for October; temperatures ranged from 69 degrees to 72 degrees, with partly cloudy skies on all three days. This survey included non-genentech parking lots, such as Lithotype, in order for these vehicles to be removed from the Genentech transportation mode share calculation.

49 CORDON COUNT SURVEY AND MODE SHARE ANALYSIS Results from the visual cordon count survey provided a breakdown of the commute mode shares. Nelson\Nygaard has previously conducted surveys starting with the Main Campus in April 2005, both Main Campus and Gateway from February 2006 to present, and the South Campus since April Since 2006, surveys have been conducted twice a year, normally in April, and in October; however, in both 2012 and 2013 only October surveys were conducted. Including the new October 2013 survey, all 15 surveys conducted to date are generally comparable although some factors should be acknowledged. Figure 3 shows the evolution of the cordon count survey over the past eight years. A full account of all variations in the cordon count data collection can be found in the Appendix of this report.

Figure 4 and Figure 5 show the mode share changes before (November 2006) and after (October 2007 through October 2013) implementation of the gride program at the Main and Gateway Campuses, respectively. Figure 6 shows the mode share changes of the South Campus from April 2008 to the present, while Figure 7 shows the mode share changes of all campuses combined. 3 All results are based on an average of the mode split over the three-day count period. Data trends are analyzed, by mode, in the proceeding sections. The mode shares data shown in the following graphs are also documented in detail in the tables in Figure 14 through Figure 17. Furthermore, Figure 8 shows mode share changes of the campus buildings within the Genentech Master Plan District (defined as Main and South Campuses combined) from April 2008 to the present. 3 It should be noted that South Campus was under construction during 2006 and 2007, and was only partially occupied during the April 2008 and 2009 counts (10% occupied April 2008, 30% occupied October 2008, 60% occupied April 2009, and 75% occupied October 2009). From the 2010 cordon counts onward, South Campus was 100% occupied. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 10

56 Drive Alone and Carpool Overall, the drive alone mode share saw a decrease of 2.5 percentage points as compared to October The current drive alone mode share for all three campuses is 56.3%, the lowest recorded rate since the cordon counts began. The Gateway Campus experienced the sharpest decline in drive alone rates, while both the Main and South Campuses saw only a moderate decrease in drive alone rates. The carpool mode share across all campuses also decreased, dropping 0.7 percentage points over the past year. See Figure 7 (previous page) for the overall average changes. Campus specific trends include the following: Main Campus: The Main Campus drive alone rate decreased 1.3 points from October 2012 and 12.5 points from October The Main Campus experienced the most significant decrease in its drive alone rate during the past two years and is currently at its lowest since Genentech began tracking commute mode splits. Drive alone rates have fluctuated on the Main Campus over the last four years, ranging between 55% - 67%. Conversely, the carpool mode share at the Main Campus remained unchanged between the 2012 and 2013 counts. South Campus: The drive alone rate at South Campus also decreased between October 2012 and October 2013, but it is still the highest of all three campuses. The South Campus drive alone rate is likely higher than other campus rates due to the fact that it has no direct GenenBus service. Most South Campus employees who take the GenenBus alight at the Main Campus, and then walk down the hillside stairway to the South Campus. A smaller portion take the GenenBus to Gateway, where they board a DNA shuttle bound for South Campus. Carpool participation is also on the decline at South Campus; the carpool rate decreased 2.9 percentage points to 6.0% - it s lowest ever rate. Gateway Campus: Gateway experienced the sharpest decrease in drive alone mode share of the three campuses, dropping 4.9 percentage points to its lowest ever level. Carpool rates also decreased; the carpool mode share declined by 0.8 percentage points at Gateway campus between survey periods. Master Plan Boundaries: The area within the Genentech Master Plan District (defined as Main and South Campuses combined), has also seen a continued fall in drive alone rates over the past years, from 68.6% in October 2011 to 59.1% and 57.4% in the October 2012 and 2013 counts, respectively. The relative changes in drive alone mode share for the Main and Gateway campuses can also be seen in Figure 8. As shown in Figure 9, drive alone shares for all campuses combined have decreased over the past six years. The All Campuses drive alone rate dropped 8.4 points from 2006 to From 2008 to present, the All Campuses rate has dropped 9.6 points. This year s rate (56.3%) is 2.5 percentage points lower than the 2012 drive alone rate. The changes in drive alone rates may be due to several factors, including gas prices, traffic congestion, and transit improvements. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 16

This is a 2.5 point decrease since October 2012 when the drive alone share was 58.5%. Since gride was implemented in late 2006, the drive alone share has dropped 17.7 percentage points. Carpools had a 7.4% share overall, a 0.7 point decrease from 8.1% one year ago. The carpool share has ranged from just over 7% to just over 12%. In July 2010, the tolling of carpool vehicles was introduced on the Bay Bridge, which may have attributed to the recent decrease in the number of carpools (though the affects of this change may have stabilized). All campuses saw either decreases or no change in carpool participation. In the last year, carpool mode share has decreased slightly by 0.8 percentage points on the Gateway Campus and 2.9 percentage points on the South Campus. The Main Campus carpool mode share remained unchanged between 2012 and 2013 counts. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 18

59 A clear link between drive alone rates and California gas prices 4 can be seen in Figure 10. Drive alone rates appear to react and change several months after gas prices significantly rise or fall. Gas prices climbed above $3 per gallon in early 2007 and above $4 by the middle of Drive alone commuters appear to have responded to the rising gas prices and the gride incentive, with a noticeable lag of several months. Six months after gas prices rose to more than $4 a gallon, drive alone rates dipped by 4 percentage points. Conversely, the drive alone rate increased 2 percentage points three months after gas prices fell by $2 to $1.75 per gallon. Prices have again surpassed $4 per gallon, and drive alone mode has subsequently decreased as well.

60 Transit Access Genentech has made transit access a priority through dramatic increases in GenenBus service, and continued shuttle services from Caltrain and BART stations. In addition, the new WETA ferry service from the East Bay to Oyster Point began last year, and transit data shows that about 50 daily riders now use the ferry service to access Genentech. 6 The expanded GenenBus service has seen an 18.5 percentage point 7 increase to South San Francisco since November Transit mode share is up 0.7 points since October 2012 and 5.4 points since October Transit mode share is largely following an upward trend of over 2 percentage points every year, though this year saw somewhat flatter growth (0.7 percentage points). As shown in Figure 11, the October 2012 transit rate is the highest ever recorded at Genentech s South San Francisco campuses. Total ridership numbers increased from 2,359 riders per day on average in 2012 to 2,409 riders per day in Figure 12 Transit Mode Share Changes 30% 29.6% 28.82% 25% 20% 15% 10% 14.10% 13.40% 11.10% 11.00% 18.20% 16.43% 20.41% 19.77% 24.13% 22.87% 21.52% Transit Linear (Transit R² ) = % 6.50% 0% Feb '06 Nov '06 Jan '07 Oct '07 Apr '08 Oct '08 Apr '09 Oct '09 Apr '10 Oct '10 April '11 Oct '11 Oct '12 Oct '13 6 Ferry ridership figure is an estimate based on ridership of Genentech shuttle with pickup at Oyster Point Ferry Terminal. 7 Points refer to the difference in mode share percentage.

61 More specifically, transit ridership trends are analyzed by service below: GenenBus (Direct Service) GenenBus combined services now provide the greatest transit share (71.2%) to South San Francisco compared to BART and Caltrain shuttles. GenenBus ridership continues to grow with more routes, though growth was flat between 2012 and South San Francisco ridership nearly doubled between October 2009 and October 2010, from 676 to 1,257 riders. In October 2012, ridership grew by a smaller margin (28%) to 1,603 riders. October 2013 ridership was essentially the same as 2012: 1,602. South Campus does not have direct GenenBus service at this time. However, employees working at the South Campus who use the GenenBus were counted this year. Caltrain Ridership via Caltrain continued to decrease. Ridership was down 22% from October 2011, to 216 riders in October In October 2013, ridership declined an additional 23% to 167 riders. This stands in stark contrasts to previous years: Caltrain ridership increased steadily from 265 riders in November 2006, 343 riders in October 2007, to a peak of 405 riders in October The sustained decrease in Caltrain ridership due to the fact that direct GenenBuses or the BART/shuttle trip are faster or more convenient than taking Caltrain. Caltrain ridership from this survey does not discern whether the Utah-Grand Shuttle service came from BART or Caltrain. Genentech does not provide its own direct shuttle service from Caltrain to South Campus. However, riders walking from the Upper Campus bus stops at Building 31 and Building 24 down to the South Campus were counted. BART The Glen Park BART Shuttle continues to provide the greatest transit share (19.1%) for a single shuttle service, as indicated in Figure 11. The second busiest route is the GenenBus Cupertino route in San Francisco with a 9.7% share of transit riders followed by the Millbrae Caltrain shuttle (7% share). Overall BART ridership decreased by 4% since October In terms of actual ridership, BART ridership increased from 483 riders in November 2006 to a high of 528 riders in October This year, it decreased to 435 daily riders. The Glen Park BART shuttle remains the transit workhorse of GenenBus services, however, with the greatest ridership of any of the GenenBus routes. Genentech does not provide its own direct shuttle service from BART to South Campus. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 21

Overall South San Francisco transit mode share increased by 0.7 percentage points since October Total ridership numbers increased from 2,359 riders per day on average in 2012 to 2,409 riders per day in Figures 14 through 17 provide more detail on transit ridership on a campus by campus basis. The transit share at the Main Campus is currently 31.6%. This is a decrease of 1.5 points from October 2012, though it still retains the highest transit rate of all three campuses. Overall, transit mode share on the Main Campus has increased by 21.8 points since November 2006, just before gride was instituted. The transit share at Gateway is 28.6%. This is an increase of 2.5 points from October Since November 2006, transit share at Gateway has increased by 15.6 points. Transit share at South Campus is 22.3%, an increase of 3.7 points from October Transit mode share has grown substantially since April 2010, primarily due to a change in survey methodology, allowing the cordon count to capture GenenBus riders going to South Campus for the first time.

63 Figure 14 Regional Transit Ridership to Genentech South San Francisco Campus Pedestrian Access Walking continues to be of limited use as a commuting method to Genentech due to the long distances from residential neighborhoods, though rates of walking did increase in Most walking comes from hotel patrons going to Gateway. Overall, walking mode share increased over the past year from a 1.1% mode share in October 2012 to a 3.1% share for all three campuses in October Walking at Gateway Campus increased from 2.1% in October 2012 to 5.7% in October Main Campus walking mode share increased in the past year from 0.8% to 2.5%, while the South Campus decreased slightly from 0.2% to 0.1%. Other Modes Since vanpool ridership was not available for the October 2013 cordon count, it was assumed that each vanpool group had an average of seven riders. As such, it is estimated that vanpool mode share was 1.7 in October This represents an increase of 0.7 percentage points from October Between November 2006 and October 2013, vanpool mode share held steady between 1.0% and 1.7%. Taxi, bike and motorcycle shares all remained relatively constant for both campuses. Note that the sum of these modes remains below 1.0% of all mode shares. Detailed Mode Split Changes Figures 14 through 17 provide detailed data on the changes in mode split since Pedestrian mode share includes all people walking past all cordon count locations. Walk percentages may be high due to employees parking in remote lots and walking onto campus. Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 23

68 PARKING SURVEY Genentech's three campuses 9 have a total of 10,724 parking spaces. Approximately 10,720 of these spaces are designated for employees. The 2013 parking survey revealed that at 10 AM on weekdays, considering all parking types, an average of 6,462 vehicles are parked at facilities throughout the three campuses. This represents a 60% average occupancy rate, though occupancy varies by lot as is described in detail below. Location of Parking Genentech is made up of three campuses: the Main Campus on DNA Way and Forbes Boulevard along San Francisco Bay, the new South Campus at the east end of East Grand Avenue, and the Gateway Campus near Highway 101. The only change in parking supply as compared to last year s parking survey is the closure of parking lot U16 (former inventory: 213) for construction of Building 35 on the Main Campus. Incorporating this change, parking supplies at the various campuses include: Master Plan District Boundary has about 8,078 parking spaces in the following areas: Main Campus has a total of about 4,618 parking spaces. South Campus has a total of 2,395 parking spaces. Gateway Campus has a total of 2,642 parking spaces. Parking is divided into several areas to distinguish trends in different parts of the campuses. The Main Campus has four major sub-campus parking areas with two smaller parking areas. The major areas are: Lower Campus West, Lower Campus East, Middle Campus, and Upper Campus. The South Campus and Gateway campuses make up the rest of the South San Francisco Genentech campuses. Remote Lots, most of which were not counted during the survey, include parking lots at the daycare facility on Allerton Avenue and buildings at East Grand and Grandview. The lots at Buildings 54 and 56 (which is generally counted with the Main Campus) are included. Within the areas are distinct parking zones delineating each parking lot or parking structure. Parking zones are named by their Parking Area and a Zone number, so the parking lot surrounding Building 51 is known as Zone L5 because it is in the Lower Area and is numbered the fifth lot in the Lower Campus. The parking zones and their parking supply are shown in Figure 18. Genentech currently has five parking structures: one (PS-1) in the Lower Campus, one (PS-2) between the Middle and the Upper Campus, one at Gateway (Gateway Parking Structure), and two structures (PS-A and PS-B) in the South Campus. 9 Genentech areas not included in parking survey were lots at B27, B29, B71, B75, and B80.

70 Parking Occupancy Parking occupancy was determined by counting the total number of vehicles parked in each parking zone. The map in Figure 21 shows parking occupancy as the number of vehicles parked in each lot. All vehicles were counted even if parked illegally or in a loading zone. Figure 19 shows the occupancy levels by percentage and parking inventory. In general, for employee parking it is acceptable for occupancy rates to reach up to 95%; more than 95% means that employees have a harder time finding parking and may search in different lots to park. A % (or above) parking occupancy rate indicates that these lots are at or near a stressed level. Parking Lots One parking lot exceeded 100% average occupancy L4 (Main Campus). This was due to a few cars parked in red no-parking zones during the Wednesday and Thursday survey days. This facility has seen 100%+ occupancy over the past three parking surveys; it is clear that L4 is a desirable place to park. Only one other parking lot was filled to capacity with 95% or greater occupancy: the G9 surface lot at the Gateway Campus. This facility is in direct proximity to the dense buildings of the Gateway Campus, and its spaces are more appealing than the upper levels of the Gateway parking structure, which typically have many spaces available. The remaining surface lots throughout the campuses were occupied at rates below the 95% target rate. The L9, S3, U19, U20, U21, and U24 lots exhibited occupancies between 90% and 95%, while the occupancy rates at the remaining lots ranged between a low of 24% (L5) and a high of 89% (L1), as shown in Figure 20. Parking Structures Among the parking structures (PS) studied there was a great variety of occupancy levels; some had higher rates than last quarter, while others had lower rates. The Lower Campus' PS-1 (L3) was fairly full at 87% occupancy, a 15% increase from the last parking survey in Quarter 4 of In contrast, the Gateway Parking Structure (G7_8), the largest in number of available spaces and in actual cars parked, was only 39% occupied. This is a lower rate than found in the previous survey, when the structure was 43% occupied. The Middle/Upper Campus structure, PS-2 (M14) increased to 85% occupied in Quarter 3 of 2013 from 75% in Quarter 4 of The original South Campus Structure, PS-A (S4) was 45% full, 6% lower than it was in the last survey. The newer structure, PS-B (S7), was only 38% full, though this was five percentage points higher over the previous survey. Overall Occupancy The overall occupancy of 60% is three percentage points lower than the last survey (Q4 2012), though the previous October survey in 2012 revealed the same (60%) rate. Since the last survey, inventory has decreased by 213 due to construction with almost no change in total occupancy. This survey s occupancy rate is four percentage points lower Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 30

71 than the all-time high of 64% in April The downward trend shows the maintained success of the gride program in attracting more employees to commute by transit. While there was a modest change in overall occupancy as compared to the previous parking survey, specific lots and garages did see some fluctuations in demand. More specifically, the overall occupancy is low enough to suggest that finding parking should be easy. However, parking demand is unevenly distributed at all three campuses. In other words, some lots are at or near capacity while other lots and parking structures nearby have ample space, as seen in Figure 20. For example, several of the big lots on upper/middle campus are starting to see occupancy rates in the range of 80-90% with four of the most popular reaching % full. For a Genentech commuter, the increased occupancy is no doubt noticeable, and with increased parking demand over time it may start to feel like it is getting harder to find parking. However, most of the popular lots on the Main Campus that are currently near capacity are close to lots with plenty of available capacity, the most notable of which is PS-2 (M14). While 85% occupied, this parking garage still had approximately 100 spaces available during the count time. As mentioned in previous reports, a cost effective way to counter the perception of parking shortages is to help direct commuters away from the busiest lots and to lots with spare capacity. For example, signs could inform eastbound drivers on Grandview that U16 tends to fill and U15 has capacity. A more flexible (though also more expensive) solution may include electronic signs to inform commuters about which lots have capacity. On Forbes, for example, a sign could read: L1: 0 spaces, L2: 21 spaces, L3: 143 spaces, L9: 15 spaces, etc., indicating how many spaces are available in each facility. Similarly, signs at either end of the Main Campus hill on DNA Way would help commuters decide which parking lot or structure is most convenient based on the time it might take to find a space in a nearly full lot close to their destination versus the increased walking time from a lot slightly further away with more available spaces. Existing technology to achieve this varies in its complexity from simple counters connected to the entry barriers of parking structures to various types of sensor networks that might be employed in parking lots. If necessary, Genentech may also consider offering various incentives to employees to encourage them to park in facilities with excess capacity. Better distributing parking demand will reduce the strain on current parking hot-spots, though it s clear that campus wide, existing parking supplies are more than enough to handle parking demand.

75 Bicycle Parking The inventory of bike lockers was supplied by Genentech, while the inventory of cages and racks was taken by Nelson\Nygaard during previous surveys. See Figure 22 for a table and Figure 24 for a map of the location of bike parking on campus. There are several different kinds of facilities available: Bike lockers: lockers provide secure, weatherproof, storage for an individual bike and are assigned when available through Genentech. These are being phased out, with only 20 now remaining. Bike cages: bike cages are located in parking structures 1, 2, and 3, and both parking structures on South Campus. They provide a storage area for multiple bikes in an access-controlled cage. Wave racks: wave racks (also known as multi-bend racks) are the most common form of rack on campus. They provide a secure locking point, but only support the bicycle frame in one place. U-racks: U-racks are the preferred bike rack solution, featuring both secure locking and support for the bicycle frame at multiple points. Ground anchors: ground anchors are featured in one location at the center of the Gateway campus. These low profile devices provide a secure locking point, but do not support the bicycle frame. The campus features 357 bicycle parking spaces, of different types, as broken down in Figure 22. Within the past few years, the majority of bike lockers were worn out and have been removed, with only ten remaining at Gateway and ten remaining at Building 56. Three new bike cages have been added, one each at PS1, PS2 and PS3.

The occupancy of racks and cages is easy to determine visually for surveyors, but since bicycle lockers are fully enclosed occupancy cannot be established visually. Bicycle locker occupancy was provided by Genentech. Figure 23 shows bicycle occupancy for each campus area. The majority of bicycles were parked in cages or lockers. Throughout the survey, there were very few bicycles observed parked at racks, indicating that secure parking in the form of cages or lockers is preferred for all day parking. According to a bicycle club member survey taken in September 2011 by Genentech, 54% of respondents said they store their bicycles in the office. Therefore the low parking Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 35

76 occupancy is not an indication that people are not riding to work merely that many people find it more convenient to park in their office. As long as that remains acceptable to Facilities Management, it is a good solution for user convenience. Overall occupancy of bicycle facilities decreased from 12% last survey (Q4 of 2012), to 9% in Quarter 3 of The overall high for bicycle occupancy was 14% in Quarter 1 of Figure 24 Bicycle Occupancy Zone Inventory Occupancy Percent Occupied Main Campus % Gateway % South % Other % Total % Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates Inc. 36
