* | In computing the number of required parking spaces, the following shall apply: | |
(1) | Where fractional spaces result, the required number shall be construed to be the next highest whole number. | |
(2) | The parking space requirements for a use not specifically mentioned herein shall be the same as required for a use of similar nature as determined by the Municipal Agency. | |
(3) | If there is not use enumerated herein having sufficient similarity to the use proposed to enable the Municipal Agency to establish rational parking requirements, the Municipal Agency may, in its discretion, direct the applicant to furnish the Municipal Agency with such data as may be necessary to enable the Municipal Agency to establish rational parking requirements. | |
** | Bar, restaurant, or similar uses shall be calculated separately. | |
*** | A building of mixed office uses may include a maximum of 1/3 medical or dental floor area. If medical or dental uses exceed 1/3 of the gross floor area, their parking requirement shall be computed separately. | |
**** | If more than 25% of the total floor area is occupied by a nonretail use which has off-street parking requirements greater than those required for a shopping center, then off-street parking for the center shall be the same as the required minimum for the nonretail use plus the required minimum for the balance of the shopping center floor area. | |
