   (a)    Application for Providing Facilities.  An application for a building permit pertaining to constructing a building or parking facility or for a certificate of occupancy for a change in use of land or a building shall include a site plan drawn to scale and fully dimensioned, showing the proposed design of the parking area and loading facilities to be provided in accordance with the space requirement schedules that are a part of this Zoning Code.
   (b)    Determination of Required Parking Facilities.  The minimum number of spaces required for accessory off-street parking shall be determined by applying the measurement standards in Section 1137.11 , the standards for designing parking areas in subsection (c) hereof, the schedule of accessory parking requirements for the various uses in Section 1137.12 and any other applicable provisions of this Zoning Code.
   The Planning and Design Commission may modify the parking requirements of Section 1137.12 under such terms and conditions as it determines will protect the public interest where it finds based upon the factual evidence presented that due to the nature of the particular use such requirements will not be adequate to provide sufficient parking or where the strict application of the requirements will result in an excessive amount of parking related to the particular use.
