1389.05    ALLOWANCE FOR SHARED USE OF PARKING FACILITIES.
   Shared parking is allowed between two or more uses to satisfy a portion of the minimum off-street parking requirement in compliance with the provisions of this section.
   (a)   A written legal agreement providing for the shared use of parking, guaranteeing access to, use of, and management of designated spaces; executed by the parties involved; and approved as to form by the City’s legal counsel, shall be filed with the Zoning Commissioner. The applicant shall record the approved agreement with the Cuyahoga County Recorded Documents Office prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Sharing privileges shall continue in effect only as long as the agreement, binding on all parties, remains in force. If the agreement is no longer in force, parking shall be provided as otherwise required by this chapter. The agreement shall specify that the City is an approving party to any change to the agreement.
   (b)   The aggregate number of spaces provided shall not be less than the sum of the spaces required in Schedule 1389.05(b)(5) as calculated in the following manner:
      (1)   The required number of spaces for each use is calculated according to Schedule 1389.04(d).
      (2)   The required number of spaces for each use is then applied to the percentages for each time, according to the appropriate land use category in Schedule 1389.05(b)(5) to determine the number of required spaces. This is done for each time category.
      (3)   The numbers are summed for all land uses within each timeframe and the highest sum total in a timeframe is the required number of spaces.
      (4)   As an alternate, the Planning and Zoning Commission may agree to a proposed shared parking arrangement that is based on a shared parking feasibility study prepared by the applicant based on procedures set forth in the Urban Land Institute Shared Parking Report, ITE Shared Parking Guidelines, or other procedures as deemed acceptable by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

      (2)   A minimum of 80% of the shared spaces for nonresidential units must be located within 500 feet of the principal building entrances of all sharing uses. A maximum of 20% of the spaces may be located greater than 500 feet but not less than 800 feet from the principal entrances.
      (3)   Clearly delineated and direct pedestrian connections shall be provided from the shared parking areas to the building entrances.
      (4)   Pedestrians shall not be required to cross an arterial street to access shared parking facilities except at a signalized intersection along a clearly delineated pedestrian pathway.
