PARKING AND
LOADING
§ 157.135 VEHICLE PARKING; WHEN REQUIRED.
(A) At the time of the establishment of any new use, changed use increasing parking requirements, erection of any building, site plan approval or at the time any principal building is enlarged or increased in capacity by adding dwelling units, guest rooms, seats or floor area, there shall be provided permanent vehicle parking spaces improved with an asphalt or concrete surface in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter.
(B) The parking spaces may be provided both in an off-street parking lot and as parallel or other approved parking along streets that are internal to a development. Parking in the public right-of-way, if available, shall not count toward satisfying the requirements of this subchapter.
(Prior Code, § 158.135) (Ord. 623, passed 9-8-1970)
§ 157.136 REQUIREMENTS; HOW CALCULATED.
(A) Required parking spaces.
(1) Parking requirement calculations shall be based on gross square footage of each land use type, unless otherwise specified. Except as may be established by an approved alternate parking plan, approved pursuant to § 157.138, parking spaces shall be provided in not less than the number of spaces (rounded up to the next whole number) necessary to address the applicable use as set forth on the table entitled, “Minimum Parking Guidelines, By Use”. Developments containing two or more of the uses listed on the table shall provide the combined number of spaces required for each use, except as may be reduced under § 157.138(C).
(2) Required additional off-street parking spaces for enlarged or expanded uses or buildings shall be calculated based only the increased use or building; provided that in all cases the number of off-street parking spaces provided for the entire use (preexisting, plus expansion) must equal at least 75% of the minimum ratio established in the table entitled, “Minimum Parking Guidelines, By Use”. In cases of expansion to parking areas, gravel lots anywhere on the site shall be upgraded to an asphalt or concrete surface.
(B) Calculation of required spaces. For purposes of calculations set forth in the table, the following terms and methods shall govern.
(1) Gross leasable area (“GLA”) shall be determined by the total area in square feet (“SF”) of all floors intended for occupancy and the exclusive use of tenants, specifically excluding public or common areas such as utility rooms, stairwells, enclosed malls and interior hallways; gross floor area (“GFA”) is determined by the total area in square feet of all floors, measured between the exterior walls of a building.
(2) Parking requirements based on employees or capacity calculations shall be based on the largest number of persons working on any single shift or the maximum fire-rated ICC occupant load, whichever is applicable and results in the greater number of spaces.
(3) Parking requirements for churches, theaters or other similar assembly uses shall be based on a ratio of one parking space required for each two and one-half seats permanently and/or temporarily placed for the largest aggregate assembly or assemblies on-site. If seating is horizontal, as with a pew, one seat is measured as 30 horizontal inches.
(4) The required number of stacking spaces for drive-through establishments shall include the automobile already located at the window, teller, bay or other applicable drive-through structure.

§ 157.137 UNLISTED USES.
Upon receiving a development application for a use not specifically listed in the off-street parking table organized by use, the Director shall apply the off-street parking standard specified for the listed use that is deemed most similar to the proposed use unless an alternate parking plan is approved.
(Prior Code, § 158.137) (Ord. 623, passed 9-8-1970)
§ 157.138 ALTERNATE PARKING PLAN.
(A) General. The parking requirements established in this subchapter may be modified by the City Council pursuant to an alternate parking plan, which shall include a detailed site plan satisfying the minimum requirements of §§ 157.050 through 157.060, and reflecting the parking areas, parking space dimensions, driving aisles, access ways and associated landscaping. An alternate parking plan may be approved only upon evidence supported by a parking study that the circumstances justify modification, satisfy the objectives of this subchapter and are in the public interest. A parking study must include estimates of parking demand based on recommendations of an IC registered P.E. experienced in parking studies provided by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (“ITE”), or other acceptable estimates as approved by the Director and should include other reliable data collected from uses or combinations of uses that are the same as or comparable with the proposed use. Comparability will be determined by density, scale, bulk, area, type of activity and location. The study must document the source of data used to develop the recommendations. An alternate parking plan may be subject to any appropriate conditions determined by the City Council to be necessary to fully mitigate the impact of any modification.
(B) Off-street parking reductions for large developments. In order to prevent the establishment of a greater number of parking spaces than actually needed to meet the particular needs of large developments of over 150,000 square feet of gross floor area, a reduction in the number of required off-street parking spaces may be permitted by the Director. Reduction shall be permitted subject to the following conditions.
(1) Maximum reduction. A maximum reduction of one parking space per every 1,000 square feet of gross floor area or 20% of the total spaces required (whichever is the lesser reduction) may be permitted. The site plan shall indicate the location and dimensions of the parking area provided.
(2) Reservation. Sufficient area shall be reserved to accommodate the total number of off-street parking spaces otherwise required by this section. The purpose of this reservation is to ensure adequate area is available to meet any future need for additional parking spaces. The reserved area shall be located on the same site and noted on the site plan. The reserved parking area shall not include areas for required landscaping, setbacks or areas that would otherwise be unusable for parking due to the physical characteristics of the land or the requirements of this subchapter. Any uses being requesting and approved for a parking reserve shall have an annual occupancy inspection performed to determine continued compliance with this section.
(3) Installation of additional spaces. The Director shall be authorized to require that the developer install additional parking spaces, up to the total number otherwise required by this section, if the Director determines that, at their sole cost, additional parking spaces set aside in the reserve area are necessary to satisfy the off-street parking needs of the use at any time in the future.
(C) Guidelines; shared parking. Required parking spaces shall be provided for and assigned to each use, except for “shared parking”, which may be approved subject to each of the following requirements.
(1) Parking spaces that are proposed for shared parking among two or more uses must be clearly available to each use and not appear in any way to be serving a particular use, either through signage dedicating the spaces or through design techniques that would tend to orient use of the spaces to a particular business or building.
(2) Sites used for shared parking shall be in common ownership with the uses or consist of not more than two contiguous parcel within or adjacent to such uses and subject to a shared access and a written joint-maintenance agreement binding and benefitting each proposed use, as approved by the Director. The approved agreement shall be recorded and a copy supplied to the Director. Any uses requesting and approved for a parking reserve shall have an annual occupancy inspection performed to determine continued compliance with this section.
(3) All shared parking spaces on the site(s) shall comply with the minimum requirements for dimensions required in this subchapter.
(4) The application of shared parking shall not reduce the total parking spaces provided to the combined uses to less than 50% of what would have been required for the combined uses without application of shared parking.
(Prior Code, § 158.138) (Ord. 623, passed 9-8-1970)
§ 157.139 GUIDELINES; DOWNTOWN DISTRICT PARKING.
(A) “Downtown District” defined. For purposes of this section, DOWNTOWN DISTRICT shall mean the “Downtown District” zoning classification as established in this code, or such other districts as established for use or authorized in the Downtown Planning Sub-Area of the city comprehensive plan.
(B) Residential uses. No on-site vehicle parking shall be required for existing or re-developed second story dwelling units located within existing buildings in the Downtown District. For construction of a new building with more than two dwelling units, parking shall be provided on-site for the property at the rate of one and one-quarter spaces per dwelling unit (rounded up to the nearest whole number of spaces).
(C) Non-residential uses.
(1) Vehicle parking.
(a) In the Downtown District, the vehicle parking space number requirements of this subchapter for non-residential uses shall apply only to the net increase in floor area or use intensity created by new construction or building expansion. For any increase in parking required through new construction or expansion of existing non-residential buildings, the applicant must submit a parking study per this code to determine the number of parking spaces to be required on-site.
(b) Any existing vehicle parking spaces that are eliminated by new construction or expansion must be replaced by that business or use, unless such spaces are in excess of the total requirements for that business or use being served, and are in the same ownership.
(2) Loading. In the Downtown District, uses that prefer to provide loading from the street may have the option of applying for a permit for a curb loading zone as provided for by the city.
(Prior Code, § 158.139) (Ord. 623, passed 9-8-1970)
§ 157.140 DEDICATION TO PARKING USE.
(A) Parking spaces provided to meet the minimum requirements of this subchapter, along with the aisles and driveways necessary to provide access to those spaces, shall not be used for any other purpose than the temporary vehicle parking unless a special event permit is obtained pursuant to this code which specifically provides that parking spaces may be used or occupied by the temporary event.
(B) Specifically, no such parking area may be used for the sale of vehicles or for the sale, display or storage of equipment, goods, materials or supplies without a special event permit.
(C) No repair, dismantling or servicing of any vehicles is permitted unless authorized as part of the permitted use of the property.
(D) Unless otherwise approved by zoning or permit, parking areas shall not be used for overnight parking of trucks, recreational vehicles or occupied vehicles.
(Prior Code, § 158.140) (Ord. 623, passed 9-8-1970)
§ 157.141 PROXIMITY OF VEHICLE PARKING SPACES TO USE.
(A) Parking spaces shall be located on the same property containing the use for which they are required unless specifically authorized by variance of the City Council.
(B) In the event a parking variance is received, the following shall in all cases apply.
(1) The parking must be provided on a property with the same zoning classification as the property that the spaces serve, or a less restrictive zoning classification.
(2) No required parking spaces may be located across any state or United States highway from the use they are intended to serve.
(3) Off-property variances may be granted up to 200 feet away in RR, SR, MR, MH or B-1 or B-2 Districts or within 500 feet in Agricultural or Industrial Districts.
(C) Existing buildings in the Downtown Business District may satisfy the parking space number requirement if the front door is within 500 feet of a municipal parking lot.
