ARTICLE 1308
Parking, Loading and Internal Roadways
1308.01 PURPOSE.
The regulations of this article are designed to alleviate or prevent congestion of the public streets by establishing minimum requirements for on-site storage of motor vehicles, in accordance with the use for which the property is occupied.
(Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
1308.02 SCOPE.
(a) Off-street parking and loading facilities shall be provided and maintained in accordance with the provisions of this section for all buildings, structures or premises used in whole or in part for purposes permitted by this Code.
(b) When the intensity of use of any building, structure or premises shall be increased through the addition of dwelling units, floor area, beds, seating capacity, or other unit of measurement, parking and loading facilities as required herein shall be provided for such increase in intensity of use.
(c) For any non-conforming use which is hereafter damaged or partially destroyed, and which is lawfully reconstructed, re-established, or repaired, off-street parking and loading facilities equivalent to those maintained at the time of such damage or partial destruction shall be restored and continued in operation; provided, however, in no case shall it be necessary to restore or maintain parking or loading facilities in excess of those required by this Code for equivalent new uses.
(d) No building permit shall be issued, no use shall be established or changed, and no structure shall be erected, enlarged or reconstructed unless the applicant has presented satisfactory evidence via parking lot design, that the off-street parking and loading spaces herein are provided in the minimum amounts and maintained in the manner specified; provided, however:
(1) For the enlargement of a structure or for the expansion of a use of structure or land there shall be required only the number of additional off-street parking and loading spaces as would be required if such enlargement or expansion were a separate new structure or use; and
(2) For a change in the class or use of a structure or land, the number of additional off-street parking and loading spaces required shall be equal to the number required for the new use, less the number of spaces which would have been required for the previous use if it had been established in conformance with this section; but in no case shall the total number of spaces furnished be required to exceed the minimum required for the new use.
(e) Off-street parking or loading facilities in existence at the time of the effective date of this article shall not hereafter be reduced below, or if already less than, shall not be further reduced below the requirements for a similar new use under the provisions of this Code.
(f) Nothing in this Code shall be deemed to prevent the voluntary establishment of off- street parking or loading facilities to serve any existing use of land or buildings, provided that all regulations herein governing the location, design, and operation of such facilities are adhered to.
(g) Off-street parking and loading facilities provided to comply with the provisions of this Code shall not subsequently be reduced below the requirements of this Code.
(Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
1308.03 GENERAL PARKING REGULATIONS.
(a) Off-street parking and loading spaces shall be provided on the same lot as the use served or within 300 feet of said lot on a site approved by the Mayor or designee. It may be situated as one or more individual areas. They shall be paved with a hard surface.
(Ord. 518. Passed 5-2-22.)
(b) Parking space and related accessory uses are permitted in the required front yard for commercial establishments in the Commercial (C) District.
(c) Off-street parking facilities required herein shall be utilized solely for the parking of passenger automobiles or light trucks with not more than two axles, belonging to patrons, occupants or employees of specified uses. Said parking facilities shall not be used for the storage, display, sale, repair, dismantling or wrecking of any vehicle, equipment or material, unless such facilities are enclosed in a building and otherwise permitted in the district, and unless such display is conducted upon stalls that are otherwise considered surplus to the requirements herein.
(d) Loading and unloading berths shall be provided on the lot. They shall be paved with a hard surface. (Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
1308.04 SURFACING.
Areas used for off-street parking, loading, circulation or vehicle display shall be surfaced with asphalt, concrete, masonry, or other solid paving materials with sufficient strength to support the vehicle loads imposed. All off-street parking and other vehicle circulation areas shall be continuously maintained and designed to preclude free flow of storm water onto adjacent lots, properties, or public streets or ways. In addition, existing non-conforming graveled parking lots or parking spaces must be continuously maintained so that dirt, mud, and gravel shall not be tacked onto adjacent lots, properties, or public streets or ways.
(Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
1308.05 DETERMINING THE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES REQUIRED.
(a) In determining the minimum required number of off-street parking or loading spaces, the following instructions shall be applicable in such computations:
(1) If the unit of measurement is any fraction of the unit specified in relation to the number of spaces to be provided, said fraction, if less than one-half or less than 0.5 shall be disregarded, however if the fraction is equal to or more than one-half or more than 0.5, then the fraction shall be considered as being the next unit and shall be counted as requiring one space.
(Ord. 423. Passed 12-19-16.)
(2) In sports arenas and other places of assembly in which patrons occupy benches, or other similar seating facilities, each twenty-two (22) inches of such seating shall be counted as one (1) seat for the purpose of determining requirements hereunder.
(3) In churches where worshipers occupy benches, pews or other similar seating facilities, each twenty-two (22) inches of such seating shall be counted as one (1) seat for the purpose of determining requirements hereunder. In the special case of facilities where religious services are offered without seating, the parking requirement shall be one (1) stall for each sixty (60) square feet of the main prayer hall or room, exclusive of stages or raised daises.
(b) Joint and Shared Use.
(1) The joint use of a parking lot for two or more separate but adjacent buildings or mixed uses may be permitted as a conditional use provided that:
A. The total number of spaces used is not less than the sum required for various buildings or uses if computed separately.
B. The lot is the same zoning district as the principal use, or in a district that permits commercial parking lots as a principal or conditional use.
C. Each use of the shared spaces shall function as if having been provided separately. In addition, a legal agreement shall be prepared by and between property owners specifying the conditions for sharing and maintaining said spaces, and such agreement shall be filed with the Planning Commission.
(2) The Board of Zoning Appeals, upon recommendation from the Planning Commission may allow a reduction of total parking requirement up to 25 percent:
A. If the applicant can satisfactorily demonstrate the parking spaces will be shared with another adjacent land use and the lack of overlap between the peak parking needs of the land uses justify such a reduction; and,
B. The applicant provides the Board of Zoning Appeals a written agreement as described in subsection (b)(1)C. above, to the Board of Zoning Appeals’ satisfaction, between the land uses allowing for the shared use of parking spaces.
C. Shared parking facilities shall provide signs on the premises indicating the availability of the facility for the patrons of the participating uses.
D. Modifications to the structures in which the uses are located or changes in tenant occupancy shall require review for compliance with this section.
(c) Required off-street loading and unloading spaces shall not be construed as being part of the required off-street parking spaces.
(d) No part of any alley or street or other public right-of-way shall be used to meet the minimum parking requirements of this code, unless otherwise provided for herein.
(e) For purposes of determining off-street parking requirements under this section, gross floor area shall mean the total horizontal area of the one or several floors of the building or portion thereof devoted to a particular use, including accessory storage areas located within selling or working space such as counters, racks, or closets and any basement floor area devoted to retailing activities, to the production or processing of goods or to offices; provided, however, gross floor area shall not include that area devoted entirely and permanently to storage purposes, parking and loading facilities, or space used for restrooms, utilities, stairwells or elevator shafts.
(f) Number of employees indicates the number of employees on the largest shift, unless otherwise indicated. (Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
(g) In the C and I Districts. The maximum number of spaces shall not exceed 125 percent of the minimum parking requirement. In the C-2, C-3, and I-2 Districts, there is no restriction on the maximum number of spaces. (Ord. 457. Passed 3-4-19.)
(h) Off-street parking shall be provided in accordance with the Westover's Parking Requirements (Table 2).
(i) Every company car, truck, tractor or trailer normally stored at a business site shall be provided with an off-street parking space. Such space shall be in addition to the parking requirements listed in the Table 2.
(j) For uses not specified in this section, or in such instance when the requirement for an adequate number of spaces is unclear or not specified in another part of this section for Conditional Uses, Shopping Center Plan, etc., the number of parking spaces shall be determined by the Planning Director on the basis of similar requirements, the number of persons served or employed, and the capability of adequately serving the visiting public. Such determination may be appealed to the Board of Zoning Appeals.
(k) In case of conflict between the provisions of this section, the higher requirement shall govern.
(l) The Board of Zoning Appeals may waive the requirement for a Home Occupation Class II to provide one (1) additional parking space for activities if it can be shown that off-street spaces required for the dwelling unit are sufficient for the purposes of the home occupation activity. (Ord. 318. Passed 2-4-08.)
