(a) Any fencing or landscaping placed within the public right-of-way as aforesaid, shall be constructed under plans and specifications approved by both the Manager of Engineering and Construction and the City Planning Commission, each to the extent of its respective jurisdiction under other sections of the Codified Ordinances.
(b) Each permit authorized by this section shall be prepared by the Director of Law, shall require the permittee to pay any taxes, assessments or other costs resulting from the construction, maintenance, and use authorized by the permit, and shall be issued only when, in the opinion of the Director of Law, the City of Cleveland has been properly indemnified against any loss, including taxes, assessments, and other costs, resulting from the encroachment permitted.
(c) A permit authorized by this section shall be issued only in accordance with the provisions of division (c) of Section 457.07 regarding actions necessary to avoid a loss of existing parking spaces.
(Ord. No. 1330-A-10. Passed 12-6-10, eff. 12-6-10)
(a) Each operator of a parking place shall keep the sidewalk surrounding the parking place free from dirt, ice, sleet and snow and shall keep the sidewalk and driveways in a safe condition for the travel of pedestrians.
(b) The loading or unloading of passengers or drivers across or upon a public sidewalk is expressly prohibited and any operator or employee who by receiving or delivering motor vehicles other than within the space provided by such place, aids or assists in blocking any sidewalk or street shall be deemed to have violated the provisions of this section.
(c) In outdoor parking lots the operator shall at all times be required to keep the lot in good order and condition and free from nuisance, and if the lot is not a hard surface, to take the necessary precautions to prevent the raising of dust and dirt by the movement of cars thereon.
(Ord. No. 1684-76. Passed 6-29-76, eff. 7-6-76)
As a condition of the issuance or renewal of an annual license, all parking lots and garages subject to the provisions of this chapter shall provide spaces for bicycle parking in accordance with the following regulations.
(a) Purpose. The requirements for bicycle parking are established for the purpose of ensuring adequate and safe facilities to accommodate bicycle parking and to encourage use of bicycles for travel as an alternative to use of motorized vehicles.
(b) Time of Compliance. For applicable parking lots and garages that were licensed prior to the initial effective date of this section, required bicycle parking spaces shall be provided no later than two (2) years after the initial effective date of this section. For other applicable parking lots and garages, required bicycle parking spaces shall be provided prior to the issuance of a license.
(c) Number of Bicycle Parking Spaces. Bicycle parking spaces shall be provided at a rate of one (1) bicycle parking space for each twenty (20) automobile spaces provided. However, no automobile parking lot or garage shall be required to provide more than twenty-four (24) bicycle parking spaces.
(d) Substitution for Automobile Spaces. The total number of automobile off-street parking spaces required under the Zoning Code shall be reduced at the ratio of one (1) automobile off-street parking space for each six (6) bicycle spaces provided. The total number of required automobile off-street parking spaces, however, shall not be reduced by more than five percent (5%) for any parking lot or garage.
(e) Bicycle Parking Space Size. Required bicycle parking spaces for nonresidential uses must have minimum dimensions of two (2) feet in width by six (6) feet in length.
(f) Bicycle Parking Space Location. Required bicycle parking spaces shall be located at least as close to the entrance of the building as the nearest non-handicapped automobile parking space. Where automobile parking is provided in an enclosed area, bicycle parking shall be provided within the enclosure or in such a way as to provide comparable protection from the elements.
(g) Bicycle Racks and Lockers. Each required bicycle parking space shall be equipped with a bicycle rack or "bicycle locker", as defined in this section.
(1) Design. Bicycle racks and lockers must be securely anchored to the ground or a building. Bicycle racks must provide a stable frame to which the bicycle may be conveniently secured, such as the inverted-U, post and loop, or another type of rack that meets these standards. Bicycle racks that support the wheel but not the frame of the bike may not be used to fulfill a bicycle parking requirement. In parking lots and parking garages, physical barriers, such as posts or bollards, shall be provided so as to prevent a motor vehicle from striking a parked bicycle.
(2) Residential Uses. Neither bicycle racks nor bicycle lockers are required for bicycle parking associated with residential uses. Required bicycle parking for residential uses may be provided in garages, storage rooms, or any other resident-accessible, secure areas.
(h) Bike Locker. As used in this section, "bike locker" means a locker or storage space large enough to house a single bicycle and which may be secured and accessed by a single user.
(i) Alternate Locations and Number of Spaces. For public parking garages and parking lots legally established prior to June 9, 2008, the Director of the City Planning Commission may approve locations other that the garage or lot for the required bicycle parking spaces or less than the required number of bicycle parking spaces if the Director determines that, under the following circumstances, alternate locations or number of bicycle parking spaces would better meet the stated purpose of this section:
(1) A single entity controls multiple parking garages or parking lots that serve the same business or use;
(2) The aggregate number of bicycle parking spaces for the multiple parking garages or parking lots that serve the same business or use will meet or exceed the bicycle parking requirements under this section;
(3) A location on another property or in the public right-of-way represents the only feasible means to meet the requirement for bicycle parking spaces. A location in the public right-of-way shall be permitted only if such location meets all requirements for issuance of an encroachment permit.
