A site plan shall be required for the construction or creation of any parking lot or the expansion of any existing parking lot in accordance with the site plan provisions of chapter 12 of this title. (Ord. 52-09, 10-19-2009)

16-14-3: PARKING SPACE CALCULATIONS:

The following provisions shall govern the computation of required off street parking spaces:

   A.   Where computation of required off street parking spaces results in a fractional number, the required spaces for the use shall be the next higher whole number.

   B.   Where more than one use is established on a single lot, the off street parking requirements for the lot shall be the sum of the separate requirements for each use established on the lot. A proposal for shared parking may be made in conformance with section 16-14-10 of this chapter.

   C.   Where a lawful use exists at the time of adoption of this title that is deficient in the provision of required off street parking, any new use hereafter established in its place shall conform to the parking requirements of this title. However, in computing the off street parking requirements for any new use, such new use shall be credited for the number of off street parking spaces that the previous use was in deficit.

   D.   No structure(s) containing lawful uses existing at the time of adoption of this title shall hereafter be expanded by twenty five percent (25%) or more of the building area existing at the time of adoption of this title, unless parking spaces are provided in full so as to bring the entire expanded use into conformity with this section. (Ord. 52-09, 10-19-2009)

16-14-4: LOCATION OF PARKING SPACES:

All off street parking spaces required by this title shall be located on the same zoning lot as the use for which such spaces are required, except that:

   A.   Within an office, commercial, or industrial district, when an increase in the number of off street parking spaces is required by an alteration, enlargement, or change of a use, the required off street parking spaces may be located off site, provided they are not located farther than three hundred feet (300') from the use served.

   B.   Within an ID institutional district, parking spaces may be located on a separate lot within the ID district boundaries, unless further restricted by the ordinance establishing the district.

   C.   Payment in lieu of parking. Reserved for future use. (Ord. 52-09, 10-19-2009)
