Section 400.710 Parking, Generally.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-600), 11-18-2008]
This Article requires the provision of adequate off-street parking and loading facilities for each use of land within the City. Parking space requirements are intended to be based on the demand created by each use. These requirements shall apply to all new uses or additions to existing uses in all districts. Plans showing the layout design of all required off-street parking and loading areas for uses other than single-family residences shall be submitted to the Building Inspector prior to the issuance of a building permit.
Section 400.720 Required Open Space.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-601), 11-18-2008]
A.
Off-street parking or loading spaces shall be a part of the required open space associated with a permitted use and shall not be reduced or encroached upon in any manner.
B.
The area required for off-street parking, excluding necessary driveways, shall be in addition to the yard areas herein required, except that the front yard required in any commercial or industrial district may be used for parking areas if a ten (10) foot landscaped median strip is provided between the front property line and the parking area.
C.
Required parking spaces and driveways shall be used solely for the purposes of parking motor vehicles that are in operating condition and belong to patrons, occupants or employees of such uses.
Section 400.730 Parking Space Calculation.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-602), 11-18-2008; Ord. No. 03052018, 3-5-2018]
A.
In subdividing property, the subdivider shall give consideration to dedicating suitable areas for schools, parks, playgrounds, fire stations, libraries and other common areas for public use in conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Areas to be dedicated shall be shown on the preliminary and final plats.
B.
Since lands for recreation and educational purposes need to be acquired in areas of expansion of the City, all subdividers shall be required to dedicate appropriate land area within their subdivision or may submit a cash donation in lieu of the dedication. In subdivisions that are primarily residential in nature, the preferences shall be for park land to be dedicated; in subdivisions that are primarily commercial or industrial in nature, the preference shall be to obtain a cash donation. The decision to accept either land or cash donation shall be by recommendation of the Park Director to the Planning Commission. A dedication of land shall be by plat and deeded to a homeowners' association or the City of Peculiar, Missouri. The dedication shall be a condition of approval of the final plat. A cash donation shall be paid at the time a building permit is issued.
1.
Subdividers who dedicate open space for park land pursuant to this Article shall dedicate park land in an amount consistent with the recommendation of the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) based upon the type of park facility needed at a particular location and the development needs of a neighborhood or community park, including, but not limited to, such amenities as play equipment, athletic areas such as baseball/softball diamonds, soccer/football fields, volleyball courts, hard surface areas such as tennis courts, basketball courts, skateboard and in-line skating rinks, picnic areas, walk/trail systems, restrooms, natural areas, open spaces and buffer zones. Suggested facility development standards and recommended standards for local developed open space, published by NRPA, combined with the ratio of park size to population in the City of Peculiar, shall be used to determine actual dedicated acreage requirements. For purposes of determining population and determining the average number of occupants per dwelling unit, the average household size for the City of Peculiar as reported in the most recent decennial census of the average number of persons expected to live in a dwelling unit within a single- or multiple-family subdivision or development shall be multiplied times the number of dwelling units proposed within a subdivision.
2.
When a cash donation is accepted in lieu of park land dedication, such donation shall equal three hundred dollars ($300.00) per dwelling unit and seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00) per acre of commercial and industrial land within the subdivision. All cash in lieu of property shall be deposited in a special park acquisition and development fund as established by the Board of Aldermen.
C.
The Park Director may reject proposed lands which are not suitable for park use. The City will consider, but is not limited to, the following criteria in determining whether the proposed dedication of land is of sufficient size, character and quality:
1.
The area proposed for park land dedication may be located either within or outside the boundary of the subdivision, but must either be adjacent to an existing or proposed City park site or within the same service area in which the subdivision is located. Park service area is considered to be within one-half (1/2) mile of the subdivision for which it is considered.
2.
The area proposed for park land dedication shall have characteristics, such as topography, vegetation and geology and location, which make it suitable for future inclusion into the City parks system.
3.
The area proposed for park land dedication may contain valuable or sensitive environmental features, the preservation of which conforms to the Comprehensive Plan.
4.
All lots within the subdivision for which the park land dedication is considered shall have legal and convenient access to the park land area.
5.
The area proposed for park land dedication shall have street frontage of at least twenty percent (20%) of its perimeter.
6.
Sites should be dedicated in a condition ready for immediate use with electrical, water, sewer and street access provided at the right-of-way line.

Section 400.750 Joint Parking Facilities.
[Ord. No. 111808 §1(400-604), 11-18-2008]
A.
Notwithstanding any other parking requirements provided in this code, when different land uses occupy the same lot in a non-residential district, the total number of off-street parking spaces required for each use may be combined and shared as provided herein. A proposal for sharing off-street parking shall be submitted to the City Planner for review. Special uses for which shared parking is being proposed shall have shared parking approved as part of the special permit.
B.
In determining the total off-street parking requirement for shared parking facilities, the following guidelines shall be followed:
1.
For each applicable general land use category, calculate the number of spaces required for a use as if it were the only use, based upon the parking requirements of this code;
2.
Use the figures for each individual land use to calculate the number of spaces required for that land use for each time period specified in the table;
3.
For each time period, add the number of spaces required for all applicable land uses to obtain a grand total for each time period; then
4.
Select the time period with the highest total parking requirement and use that as the total number of parking spaces required for the site on a shared parking basis.
C.
Where a use is not listed, the City Planner shall determine the appropriate required parking for each time period.
D.
