In the case of mixed uses, the total requirements for off-street parking and off-street loading space shall be the sum of the requirements of the various uses computed separately as specified in this zoning ordinance, and the off-street parking and off-street loading for one use shall not be considered as providing the required off-street parking or off-street loading space for any other use.
(Ord. 4761, passed 11-17-1953)
Nothing in this zoning ordinance shall be construed as preventing the joint use of off-street parking or off-street loading space for two or more buildings or uses if the total of such spaces when used together shall not be less than the sum of the requirements for the various individual uses computed separately.
(Ord. 4761, passed 11-17-1953)
The schedule of requirements for off-street parking space and off-street loading space applicable to newly erected or substantially altered structures shall be a continuing obligation of the owner of the real estate on which any such structure is located so long as the structure is in existence and its use requiring vehicle parking or vehicle loading facilities continues. No owner of any building affected by this zoning ordinance shall discontinue, change or dispense with, or cause the discontinuance or change of the required vehicle parking or loading space apart from the discontinuance, sale or transfer of such structure, without establishing alternative vehicle parking or loading space which meets with the requirements of and is in compliance with this zoning ordinance. No person, firm or corporation shall use such building without acquiring such land for vehicle parking or loading space which meets with the requirements of and is in compliance with this zoning ordinance.

All off-street parking and loading facilities required by this zoning ordinance shall have an impervious pavement, shall be drained, lighted and maintained by the owner, shall include adequate means of ingress and egress and shall be arranged for convenient access and safety of pedestrians and vehicles. Where parking or loading areas abut a city street, there shall be a protecting curb or barrier at least three feet from the street line and parallel thereto and at least five inches high, securely anchored to the ground and extending continuously across the lot except for the necessary openings for drainage and opposite authorized driveways. The number of parking spaces in a parking area shall not be reduced except upon approval by the Board of Zoning Appeals and then only after proof that, by reason of diminution of floor area, seating, number of employees or change in other factors controlling the requirement of a certain number of parking spaces, the proposed reduction is reasonable and consistent with the intent of this zoning ordinance.
