The parking overlay zone shall be created in the same manner as property is reclassified from one zone classification to another within the city, in the manner specified in Chapter 18.60. When so classified, the same shall be noted on the zoning map by the symbol "P" in parentheses following the existing zoning classification of such property.

(Prior code § 9450)

(Ord. No. 3159, § 3(Exh. A), 11-12-24)

When any lot is classified in the parking overlay zone it may be used, in lieu of the uses permitted by its underlying zone classification, exclusively for off-street parking purposes if such off-street parking facilities serve a principal use which is located on a lot which is within one hundred feet of the outer boundaries of the lot classified in the parking overlay zone. The following regulations shall apply to the use of a lot so classified:

A.

All off-street parking facilities shall be constructed and maintained in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 18.48.

B.

All required yard areas, as imposed by the zoning regulations applicable to such lot by reason of its underlying zone classification, shall be observed. All such required yard areas shall be landscaped and permanently maintained as such, including, but not limited to, the installation and maintenance of a permanent irrigation system.

(Prior code § 9451)

(Ord. No. 3159, § 3(Exh. A), 11-12-24)

No lot shall be classified in the parking overlay zone unless vehicular and/or pedestrian access thereto is limited or restricted by conveyance of such access rights to the city, or otherwise, to ensure a safe traffic flow and to ensure that the use of such lot for off-street parking purposes will not unreasonably increase vehicular or pedestrian traffic on abutting streets serving residential areas.

(Prior code § 9452)
