Off-street parking regulations are established in order to protect residential neighborhoods from on-street parking; to promote the general convenience, welfare and prosperity of commercial developments; and to relieve congestion so the streets can be utilized more fully for movement of vehicular traffic. The off-street parking regulations also work to minimize the negative impacts that result from large expanses of paved parking areas and encourage alternate modes of transportation, including walking, biking and public transportation. Therefore, accessory off-street parking shall be provided as a condition precedent to the occupancy or use of any building, structure or land, and at any time a building, structure or use of land is enlarged, expanded, increased in capacity or use, in conformance with the following provisions.
