in the case that a revised ITE trip rate is published prior to an administrative modification to the Transportation Trip Rate Table (Table 3). 1.3.3 Alternate Trip Generation Calculation Prior to the issuance of a permit requiring payment of Transportation SDCs, an applicant may elect to use the Alternate Calculation method of determining the trip generation for the type of development proposed, as provided here. This election must be by written application to the City Transportation Engineer, must be accompanied with payment or the agreement to pay the transportation SDC using the Standard Calculation and must be approved by the City Transportation Engineer. Issuance of a final certificate of occupancy for the development will be contingent on a final decision by the City Transportation Engineer on the Alternate Calculation submitted for review. In the absence of the City Transportation Engineer's approval of the applicant's election to use an Alternate Calculation, the Standard Calculation shall be used. All calculations shall be based on the p.m. peak hour traffic on the adjacent street for a general type of development similar to the proposal and not on the p.m. peak hour traffic on the development site. 1.3.3.1 Existing Traffic Study Standards If an applicant provides previously performed traffic studies that meet the standards in this paragraph and have been approved by the City Transportation Engineer, the trip rate based upon those studies may be used to calculate the transportation SDC. Except that the studies may come from geographic locations other than those listed in 1.3.3.3.3, the studies shall meet the standards set in paragraph 1.3.3.3 and shall not be more than ten years old. 1.3.3.2 Independent Traffic Study If an applicant does not want to use the trip generation rates in 1.3.2 or to have the rate determined under paragraph 3.2.1, with the prior written approval of the City Transportation Engineer by complying with the standards in paragraph 3.2.3 below the applicant may conduct an independent survey of the proposed development's trip generation rate. 1.3.3.3 Transportation Traffic Study Criteria To be used to calculate the Transportation SDC for a proposed development under this paragraph 1.3.3, a transportation study must meet the following standards unless the City Transportation Engineer modifies them because of unique circumstances: 1.3.3.3.1 Qualifications of Study The completed study must be stamped by either a licensed civil engineer qualified to conduct traffic studies or a licensed transportation engineer, who has been approved by the City Transportation Engineer.
