Looks like you have some shade from a nearby building, but that is probably only there for a fraction of the day?

Yes, that picture is about an hour before sunset. The garage would provide no heat relief whatsoever. I guess that I was originally more focused on keeping them warm and didn't worry about the Summer heat. After walking into the coop now that it's built it is eerily still in there. It's usually so windy here with a cool breeze coming off of the bay such that I didn't think about Summer ventilation. I like the idea of louvers but that would also allow cold air to flow in with North/Northwest wind cold fronts. That is certainly a viable option though. I'll be able to vent this coop somehow, I just need to think it through and figure out the best way to do so. My main concern is to get it finished so that I can move the chickens from their cages into their new home.
