Section 405.310 Administrative Requirements.

[Ord. No. 4238 §2(501.2), 10-3-1988]

Determination Of Required Number Of Spaces.

Fractional spaces. When determination of the number of off-street parking spaces required by this regulation results in a requirement of a fractional space, the fraction of one-half (½) less may be disregarded, and a fraction in excess of one-half (½) shall be counted as one (1) parking space.

Floor area. "Floor area", when used as a measurement for determining the number of parking spaces for office, merchandising or service uses, shall mean the gross floor area used, or intended to be used, for service to the public as patrons or patients, including areas occupied by fixtures and equipment used for display or sale of merchandise. It shall not include areas used principally for non-public purposes such as storage, processing or packaging of merchandise, show windows, or rest rooms or utilities, dressing, fitting or alteration rooms.

Parking For Multiple Use Buildings. The number of parking spaces required for land or buildings used for two (2) or more purposes shall be the sum of the requirements for the various uses, computed in accordance with this Chapter. Parking facilities for one (1) use shall not be considered as providing the required parking facilities for any other use, except where shared parking provisions may be demonstrated in accordance with Section 405.330(H).

Use Of Required Parking Spaces. Required accessory off-street parking facilities provided for the uses hereinafter listed shall be solely for the parking of motor vehicles in operating condition of patrons, occupants or employees of such uses and shall not be used for the storage of other vehicles, boats, motor homes, campers, mobile homes or materials. All off-street vehicles shall be parked only on required accessory off-street parking facilities.

Accessory Parking Lots. All required off-street parking or loading spaces shall be provided on the same parcel of land occupied by the use or building to which it is appurtenant; provided however, that where there are, in the judgment of the Planning and Zoning Commission, practical difficulties in satisfying the requirement for parking space and/or if the public safety or convenience would be better served by another location, the Planning and Zoning Commission may recommend authorization of an alternate location for any portion of the required parking for a non-residential use which will adequately serve the public interest, subject to the following conditions:

Required accessory off-street parking facilities may be provided elsewhere than on the lot on which the principal use served is located, provided that the property occupied as parking is in the same possession, either by deed, by easement, or by long-term lease which has a term equal to or exceeding the projected life of the facility occupied by the principal use, and further provided that the owner shall be bound by covenants filed on record in the office of the County Recorder requiring the owners, heirs or assigns to maintain the required number of off-street parking spaces during the existence of such principal use.

Pedestrian access shall be available within a walking distance of not more than three hundred (300) feet measured from the nearest point of public access to the building to the nearest part of the accessory parking area.

Such separate parking space shall be usable without causing unreasonable traffic congestion, detriment to any residential neighborhood or hazard to pedestrians or vehicular traffic.

All accessory parking lots shall be located on property zoned within the same or similar zoning district.

Changes In Use. No off-street parking space required under this Chapter shall be used for any other purpose. Where a change in use creates greater parking requirements than the amount being provided, an occupancy permit shall not be issued until provision is made for the increased amount of required off-street parking.

Additions To Structures, Buildings Or Uses. Where an addition is made to an existing structure, building or use which does not comply with the parking requirements cited for such structure, building or use, the parking requirements supplied for the addition shall include those spaces necessary to bring the structure, building or use as a whole into conformance with the requirements of this Chapter.

Existing Parking. No parking area or parking space which exists at the time this Chapter becomes effective (October 3, 1988) or which subsequent thereto is provided for the purpose of complying with the provisions of this Chapter shall thereafter be relinquished or reduced in any manner below the requirements established by this Chapter.

General on-site circulation design standards.

There shall be an adequate, safe and convenient arrangement of pedestrian circulation facilities, roadways, driveways, off-street parking, and loading space.

Roads, pedestrian walks and open space shall be designed as integral parts of an overall site design. They shall be properly related to existing and proposed buildings and appropriately landscaped.

Buildings, vehicular circulation and open spaces shall be arranged so that pedestrians moving between buildings are not unnecessarily exposed to vehicular traffic.

General on-site parking and loading design standards.

In accordance with the requirements of this Chapter, all parking garages shall be subject to site plan review in accordance with the procedures established in Section 405.390. Where parking garages are adjacent to residential districts, the Planning and Zoning Commission may make recommendations to the City Council with respect to the design of such structures to ensure that potential impacts of light, noise and fumes generated by such structures are minimized or mitigated. The Council may incorporate these recommendations and/or additional recommendations into this Chapter for site plan approval.

Parking facilities shall be landscaped and screened from public view to the extent necessary to eliminate unsightliness and monotony of parked cars.

Parking facilities shall be designed with careful regard to orderly arrangement, topography, landscaping, ease of access and shall be developed as an integral part of the overall site design.

Any above grade loading facility shall be screened from public view to the extent necessary to eliminate unsightliness.

Adequate parking spaces shall be specially designated for the parking of vehicles of disabled persons. Such spaces shall be twelve (12) feet wide and located close to the building entry.

The height, type, spacing and degree of cut off of a light standard may be further regulated by the Planning and Zoning Commission in relation to specific site conditions or types of development.

Screening and landscaping. All parking and loading areas shall be properly screened and landscaped with natural plant material. It is the purpose and intention of this Article to adequately protect contiguous property against undesirable effects from the creation and operation of parking or loading areas and to protect, preserve and enhance the appearance and character of the surrounding neighborhoods and of the City through the screening and landscaping of parking facilities.

The landscaping shall include, to the extent necessary to further the intent of this Article, shrubs, bushes, hedges, trees, decorative walls or fencing as set forth below.

The frontage along the entire parking or loading area adjacent to any public or private street shall be landscaped and protected so as to separate and screen any parking area from the adjacent streets, including the provision of deciduous, hardwood street trees at not more than thirty-five (35) feet on center located either within the right-of-way, if approved by the appropriate public agency, or parallel to the right-of-way on the subject property.

The use of earth berms shall be encouraged, provided these are designed in any area of enough size so as to cause no erosion, drainage or maintenance problem.

Interior planting bed areas which are used for the planting of trees or which are used for landscaping treatment generally may be treated with either grass and/or other types of ground cover beneath and surrounding trees and shrubs, provided water absorption is not impaired.

All landscaping shall be perpetually maintained in good condition with at least the same quality and quantity of landscaping as initially approved. In order to present a healthy, neat and orderly appearance, landscaped areas should be provided with adequate irrigation for the maintenance of grass, shrubs, ground covering and other landscaping by utilization of a sprinkler system, hose bibs and/or such other method of providing water.

All landscaped areas in parking areas or adjacent to parking or loading areas, or which can be encroached upon by a motor vehicle, shall be provided with an adequate, permanent concrete curb or wheel bumpers, as approved by the City Engineer or his/her representative, to restrict the destruction of the landscaped areas by vehicles. Adequate scuppers and/or weep holes shall be provided through the curbing to permit drainage.

Attendant shelter. A shelter for the use of a parking lot attendant may be maintained on the lot providing the location, construction and design of same shall be first approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

Maintenance. Any person operating or owning a parking lot shall keep the same free as may be practical of dust and loose particles and shall promptly remove snow and ice from the surface of the parking lot. He/she shall also keep all adjacent sidewalks free from dirt, ice, sleet and snow and shall keep the sidewalks in a safe condition for use by pedestrians.
