1151.11 PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE C-2 CHARDON SQUARE MIXED USE DISTRICT.
   In recognition of the historic C-2 Chardon Square Mixed Use District, with its compact character of buildings, the prevalence of on-street parking spaces and the availability of off-street parking spaces in two City-owned parking lots, the Planning Commission may approve a development plan for new construction with up to an eighty percent (80%) reduction in the requirements of Schedule 1151.09, Required Off Street Parking Spaces. An applicant shall submit a parking assessment in support of a reduction, at the time a concept development plan is submitted, that includes the information detailed in Section 1151.13. In making a determination, the Planning Commission shall consider the following criteria:
   (a)   The character of the proposed use and the ability of the proposed use to reinforce the main street environment;
   (b)   The availability and accessibility of public parking spaces, both on street and within public parking lots;
   (c)   The availability of parking areas on adjacent sites, considering the hours of operation of the proposed use compared to adjacent uses; and,
   (d)   The potential negative impact to the character of the Chardon Square if the requisite number of parking spaces are or are not provided.
