3.   Number Of Parking Spaces: The planning commission shall determine the required number of parking spaces after:

a.   Considering the recommendations of the parking study and city staff; and

b.   Making the findings required under subsection C(4) of this section, according to the type of application.

4.   Findings Required: The planning commission may approve a deviation from strict compliance for the number of parking spaces required or the calculation used only after making the findings of this subsection:

a.   For commercial, retail, office, and mixed use developments, the planning commission must find that:

(1)   Adequate parking will be provided;

(2)   The total number of spaces that would otherwise be required for each individual establishment in the development is overly burdensome for the site specific factors of the application;

(3)   The size of project does not warrant the calculated parking requirements of this chapter;

(4)   The specific parking dedicated for use by visitors and recreational vehicles is appropriate;

(5)   Any potential for future expansion or addition to the development will have or will provide adequate parking for that expansion or addition;

(6)   Transportation alternatives, including proximity to transit stations, provide adequate transportation to offset any reduction in parking;

(7)   ADA compliant parking requirements are not proposed for adjustment; and

(8)   Restrictive covenants specific to the development make provisions to control parking such that parking for the development will not impact neighboring properties or public rights of way.
