(C) Where more than one use occupies a building or premises, the loading requirements shall be equal to the sum of the requirements of each use.
(D) If the applicant for a building permit or certificate of occupancy finds that the off-street loading requirements is in excess of the needs of the proposed building or use, the Board of Adjustment may reduce the number of spaces required and the extent of the loading area to be improved, upon finding that any proposed modification shall be sufficient to serve the building or use, and that no hazard or traffic congestion shall result. If the building or premises for which the modification is requested is thereafter occupied by a use which requires a greater number of off-street loading spaces, the use and/or building shall not be continued or occupied until the requirements of this subchapter have been met.
