Schedule D uses have widely varying parking demand characteristics, making it impossible to specify a single off-street parking standard.
(a) Upon receiving a development application for a use subject to "Schedule D" standards, the Planning Commission must apply to off-street parking standard specified for the listed use that is deemed most similar to the proposed use or establish minimum off-street parking requirements on the basis of a parking study prepared by the applicant.
(b) The study must include estimates of parking demand based on recommendations of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), or other acceptable estimates as approved by the City Engineer and include other reliable data collected from uses or combinations of uses that are the same as or comparable with the proposed use. Comparability will be determined by density, scale, bulk, area, type or activity, and location. The study must document the source of data used to develop the recommendations.
