A primary objective of the Village's planning mission is to relieve traffic congestion in the streets, minimize vehicular conflicts, minimize any detrimental effects of any off street parking areas on adjacent properties and to ensure the proper and uniform development of parking areas throughout the Village. The Village also strives to successfully and safely integrate automobile and pedestrian traffic within common rights-of-way. Therefore, all off street parking and loading spaces shall be provided in strict accordance with the standards established in this Article. Nothing in this Article shall prevent the voluntary establishment of off street parking and loading facilities in excess of the number or standards, provided that such facilities meet all other minimum requirements of the Village. (Ord. 08-1377, 4-15-2008)

1. Each principal and accessory use of land shall provide the number of off street parking spaces indicated for that use in the table provided in subsection F of this Section for all zoning districts, unless adjusted in accordance with Section 20-10 of this Article. When the square footage of the building or tenant area is stated, the gross square footage shall be used unless specifically stated otherwise.
2. When the use of any lot or structure is changed to a use requiring more off street parking than the previous use or there has been an addition of dwelling units, gross floor area or seating capacity, the additional parking and loading facilities shall be provided as required for the entire use. However, if the structure involved was erected prior to the effective date of this Appendix A, additional parking or loading facilities are required only in the amount by which the requirements for the new or added use exceed those for the existing use.
3. In the case of mixed uses, or when there are two (2) or more buildings on a single lot, the total requirements for off street parking spaces shall be the sum of the requirements of the various uses computed separately.
4. When calculations of the required number of spaces result in fractional numbers, results less than 0.5 shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and results 0.5 or greater shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.
5. Designated parking for bicycles shall be provided at a ratio of one to twenty (1:20) of required parking spaces for passenger vehicles for the following uses: multi-family residential, public and quasi-public uses, recreational, commercial and employment uses. Whenever bicycle spaces are required a minimum of two (2) shall be provided. However, no individual use shall be required to provide more than fifteen (15) spaces.
6. The following number of off street parking spaces shall be provided for the associated use listed below in all zoning districts. When the square footage of building area is stated, the gross square footage shall be used unless specifically stated otherwise. (Ord. 08-1377, 4-15-2008)

      3. The owner has not created the problem by having previously subdivided the parcel from a larger tract.
      4. Such an adjustment shall require the affirmative vote of four (4) trustees.
2. The Village Board, without a public hearing, may approve a reduction in the required parking in the following situations:
   1. Captive Market Credit. Retail and restaurant uses may be eligible for a captive market credit where it is determined that some portion of the patronage of these businesses derives from other uses located within a maximum walking distance of one thousand feet (1,000'). In addition to or in lieu of a parking design analysis the following factors for captive market adjustments may be utilized for uses as noted in the VC and O/R districts:
      
      ALLOWABLE PARKING REDUCTION BY USE
      
      Retail/service: 15 percent
      Food and beverage: 15 percent
      General offices: 5 percent
      Financial institution: 5 percent
   2. Public Transportation Proximity Credits.
      1. A reduction of up to five percent (5%) of the required parking, based on substantiated projections of reduction in parking demand, may be granted for any use, building or complex located within one thousand feet (1000') of any regularly scheduled bus route or other transportation system.

A reduction of up to fifteen percent (15%) of the required parking, based on substantiated projections of reduction in parking demand, may be granted for any use, building or complex that institutes and maintains a continuous shuttle service, or contracts with an outside agency for such service.
   3. Complementary Uses. Up to ten percent (10%) of the gross floor area in the same building or building complex may be occupied by other complementary uses without providing parking in addition to that imposed by the application of the ratio for the principal use. Occupancy by complementary tenancies shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the gross floor area of the building or building complex.

A reduction of up to five percent (5%) of the required number of parking spaces may be granted for any use, building or complex of buildings at a credit of one space for each ten (10) bicycle parking spaces provided beyond the minimum calculated requirement. Said spaces shall be provided with adequate rack parking as determined by the zoning administrator, sheltered from precipitation, and shall meet the minimum standards for parking spaces as set forth in this Code. (Ord. 08-1377, 4-15-2008)

A stacking lane for each order box or window shall be provided at a minimum length of one hundred feet (100'). The actual length of the stacking lane shall be determined based on the queuing expectations of peak hour projections, transaction time and number of windows. Stacking lanes shall not interfere with or include any portion of an access or service drive, aisles or designated parking space. No order box or window shall be located closer than one hundred feet (100') to any residentially zoned property. This requirement shall not be deemed to confer any right to a drive-through facility for food service.
3. Other Facilities. Stacking lanes sufficient to accommodate a number of automobiles equal to at least three (3) times the number of drive-through service windows. Stacking lanes shall not interfere with or include any portion of an access or service drive, aisles, or designated parking space.

4. Electronic communication devices may not be located closer than one hundred feet (100') to any residential district.

A site within the Village Center district may not have more than one drive-in/drive-through lane.

1. Village Review. In addition to the parking standards set forth in this Section, the Village reserves the right to review planned unit development, special use or any seasonal or temporary use to determine if additional parking, loading or stacking is needed based on the actual application and the proposed location.
2. User Parking. Every use for which any requirement for parking is listed in Subsection 20-2 F of this Article must provide an absolute minimum of one off street parking space for each user.
3. Commercial Vehicles. In addition to the requirements of Subsection 20-2 F of this Article, one off street parking space shall be required for each commercial vehicle directly associated with a permitted use, whether or not the vehicle is anticipated to be stored only overnight on the premises. (Ord. 08-1377, 4-15-2008)
