In the area designated by Council resolution as the Campus Zone Area I, the following provisions shall be applicable notwithstanding any provisions of the chapter to the contrary:

A. Residents and trapped residents within the general boundary of the Campus Zone shall be eligible for a residential parking permit as set forth in Section 14.72.090 of this chapter.

B. Monitoring and related actions shall be required as follows:

1. 90 days after permits go on sale the City shall conduct a parking occupancy survey of the zone during either the fall or spring academic session of the University of California. Such a survey shall also subsequently be conducted if directed by Council or upon receipt by the staff of a request for such a survey submitted by resident petition of at least 33% of the residential units of Area I. For the purposes of this section, the term "residential unit" shall include, but shall not be limited to, all residential rooms contained in group living quarters. Such petition shall be on a form approved by the staff and shall state that the undersigned residents believe that the occupancy level in the zone exceeds 75%.

2. If the results of either the initial survey or a subsequent survey requested by resident petition indicate that parking occupancy within the zone exceeds 75%, the City Council shall implement programs to attempt to reduce such occupancy to below 75%. Such programs may include but are not limited to the following:

(a) Expansion of the Sather Gate garage;

(b) Incorporation of block fronts bordering the Oxford Tract into the Campus Zone Area I;

(c) Conversion of unused bicycle lanes within the Campus Zone Area I to on-street, residential permit parking;

(d) Implementation and enforcement of residential permit parking limits earlier in the day in the Campus Zone Area I;

(e) Allowance of Campus Zone Area I residents to park without restrictions at meters;

(f) Modification of the Zoning Ordinance to regulate the rental of off-street parking for residential projects; and

(g) Reduction of the time allotted to non-permit holders to park in the Campus Zone Area I.

3. No sooner than 60 days after the completion of such programs, but not later than 90 days from completion of the survey under subsection B.1, the City shall conduct a follow-up parking survey in the zone. The survey will be conducted during the fall or spring academic session of the University of California and will be delayed if necessary.

4. If the follow-up survey indicates a parking occupancy in the zone of over 75% at the beginning of the next permit year and each year thereafter, the City Council shall authorize the issuance of up to 350 permits in other zones to residents of the Campus Zone according to a method as the Council shall prescribe and according to the following distribution schedule:
