165.33   SHARED OFF-STREET PARKING PROVISIONS.
   1.   Private Facilities. Off-street parking facilities for separate uses may be provided collectively if the total number of spaces so provided is at least equal to the sum of the separate requirements governing the number of accessory parking spaces for each use served. Further, no parking space or portion thereof shall serve as a required space for more than one use unless otherwise authorized by the Board of Adjustment.
   2.   Public Facilities. Shared public parking can be located where the City has constructed, or proposes to construct, public off-street parking facilities, shared parking district within the boundaries of an area set forth by resolution of the City Council. The special conditions warranting such action may relate to preservation of sites or structures of unique historical or architectural value to the community, a hardship created by public action, or other unusual circumstances. When such a shared parking district has been established, all or a part of the private off-street parking spaces required within the parking district may be provided by the public off-street parking facility located within said district.
   3.   Approved Parking and Side Development Plan for Shared Public Parking. Prior to property owners within the established parking district being able to so reduce the number of private off-street parking spaces, such owners shall submit, and the City Council must approve, a Parking and Site Development Plan for the affected properties within the parking district. Such plan shall show proposed development of the area and how the total number of required off-street parking spaces will be provided by the use of public and private facilities. In addition to an Approved Parking and Site Development Plan, the City Council may, as it deems necessary and appropriate, require formal agreements with the property owners concerning land dedications and easements, participation in construction and maintenance costs of the public parking facilities and other related matters. Subsequent to formal execution of agreements, and the availability of the public parking facilities, property owners may reduce the number of private off-street spaces required in accordance with the Approved Parking and Site Development Plan.
   4.   Number of Shared Public Parking Spaces. The total number of off-street parking spaces provided by the combined public and private facilities within the shared parking district shall not be less than the number required by this Code unless the City Council specifically approves such a reduction in its approval of the Parking and Site Development Plan.
