(A) It is the intent of this subchapter that all buildings, structures and uses of land shall provide off- street parking and loading space in an amount sufficient to meet the needs caused by the building or use of land and that such parking and loading spaces be so oriented that they are in fact readily usable for such purpose. Because of the pedestrian orientation of the core of the General Commercial District, it is intended that parking be provided at the periphery of the core.
(B) Each use of land and each building or structure hereafter constructed or established and each addition to a structure in excess of 300 square feet, except as herein provided, shall provide off-street parking and loading according to the standards set forth herein. When an addition is made to a building nonconforming as to parking or loading, a conforming amount of parking shall be supplied based upon the size of the addition.
