1. Size of parking space. For the purpose of computing gross parking area for required off-street parking, 350 square feet of unobstructed net standing, maneuvering, or access area shall be considered one parking space. However, a lesser area may be considered as one space if the Zoning Officer certifies that the layout and design of the parking area are adequate to permit convenient access and maneuvering. In any event, the size of a parking space shall be at least 20 feet long and nine feet wide exclusive of access or maneuvering area.
2. Gross floor area. Gross floor area shall include all areas of a building used or occupied by any traffic generator mentioned in § 27-601; provided, however, that basement or cellar floor area not used for processing, servicing or sales of goods or merchandise shall not be counted as gross floor area.
3. Seats. In places of assembly where bench-type seats are provided or when standing patrons are served at a counter or bar, each 20 linear inches of such seating or standing space shall be considered as one seat for the purpose of determining off-street parking requirements.
4. Employees. In any case where there is more than one work shift, the total number of employees used to compute off-street parking requirements shall include the maximum number of employees on one shift.
5. Fractional units. When application of the units of measurement to determine required off-street parking spaces results in a fractional parking space of one-half or more, one parking space shall be required.
