(a) The following rules shall apply when computing parking spaces:
(1) On-Street Parking. On-street parking spaces shall not be counted toward off-street parking space requirements except as may otherwise be provided for in this Zoning Ordinance.
(2) Driveway Space Meeting Parking Requirements. Entrances, exits, or driveways shall not be computed as any part of a required parking lot or area, except in the case of single-family or two-family dwellings where driveways may be used in calculating the amount of off-street parking.
(3) Multiple Uses. Where a building or group of buildings on the same lot contains two (2) or more uses, the parking areas shall include a number of spaces that equals the combined total of parking spaces required for each individual use, except as otherwise allowed in this chapter.
(4) Area Measurements. All square footage-based parking standards shall be computed on the basis of gross floor area of all floors in the building.
(5) Bench Seating. In the case of benches, pews, and similar seating accommodations that do not have individual seats, each twenty-four (24) inches of length of seating shall be counted as one (1) seat for the purpose of determining the parking requirements.
(6) Electric Vehicle Charging Station Spaces. Parking spaces that are restricted or otherwise dedicated to and provided with equipment solely for the purpose of charging electric vehicles shall count towards the total number of required off-street parking spaces on a space for space basis where required. Such parking spaces shall meet all other code requirements.
(7) Parking Areas within a Structure. No parking spaces located within the interior of a structure (excluding parking garages) shall be counted in meeting the off-street parking requirements of this section except when located within a private garage, parking garage, or other facility designed for the parking of cars.
(8) Accessory and Temporary Uses. Accessory and temporary uses shall be exempt from off-street parking requirements unless specifically required in Section 1115.34 "Temporary Uses Not Listed."
(9) Unlisted Uses. Upon receiving an application for a use not specifically listed or addressed in Table 1139-1 in Section 1139.04 "Required Parking Spaces," the Zoning Administrator shall apply the parking standard specified for the listed use that the Zoning Administrator deems most similar to the proposed use in regard to use, size and intensity of use. If the Zoning Administrator determines that there is no listed use similar to the proposed use, intensity, or size, the Zoning Administrator may refer to the estimates of parking demand based on recommendations of the American Planning Association (APA), the Urban Land Institute (ULI) and/or the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE). The Zoning Administrator's decision regarding parking requirements for a specific use is appealable to the Board of Zoning Appeals as established in Section 1163.01 "Appeals."
(b) Number Of Spaces Required.
(1) This section defines the number of parking spaces required for each use within the Village.
(2) Additional reductions shall be permitted if the applicant provides off-site parking spaces, shared parking spaces, or deferred construction parking spaces as provided for in Section 1139.06 "Alternative Parking Provisions."
