Notwithstanding any other provision of this Code, parking for mixed use developments located in the M-PD-4 Zone shall be provided in accordance with this section.
   A.   A mixed use development shall provide parking for the commercial and residential components that can be physically separated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Planning Commission may modify this requirement, as part of a planned development, if it finds that such access would advance the objectives of the M-PD-4 Zone as set forth in section 10-3-1990.2 of this article.
   B.   Except as provided otherwise in this article, parking for all uses in a mixed use development shall be provided in accordance with the applicable provisions of this chapter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Planning Commission may modify the parking requirements for a mixed use development, as part of a planned development, if it finds that such modifications would advance the objectives of the M-PD-4 Zone as set forth in section 10-3-1990.2 of this article.
   C.   Notwithstanding any other provision in this chapter, up to ten percent (10%) of the parking spaces provided in a mixed use development in the M-PD-4 Zone may be compact spaces and up to twenty percent (20%) of the total number of multiple-family dwelling units in a project may satisfy the parking requirements of this chapter through the use of tandem parking spaces. The dimensions of each tandem space shall comply with the parking standards adopted by the City Council and on file in the Community Development Department - Building and Safety.
   D.   If parking is provided above ground, all parking, except for driveways and access to loading areas, shall be located behind building space that is dedicated to a permitted use other than parking, which building space shall be a minimum of forty feet (40') deep as measured from the building facades facing public streets, to prevent direct visibility from adjacent streets unless otherwise approved by the Planning Commission as part of a planned development.
