A. Generally: The parking type standards describe the allowed off street parking options and determine their basic design requirements. Additional requirements are set forth in the subdistrict standards and building type standards of this article. The images herein are intended to illustrate typical conditions. The actual design and configuration of a parking facility may vary.
Table 2G-7 of this section identifies which of the parking types are allowed in conjunction with each of the building types:
Building Types | Permitted Parking Types | ||||||
Garage | Tuck Under Parking | Surface Lot | Midblock Structure | Lined Structure | Integrated Structure | Underground Structure |

B. Garage: Garages provide private, enclosed parking spaces for individual dwelling units. Garages shall be located behind the principal building and may be attached to it, connected through a breezeway, or detached.
C. Tuck Under Parking: Tuck under parking provides covered and enclosed parking spaces located at the rear of a building. Tuck under parking may be combined with other parking types and works particularly well on properties that slope away from the primary street right of way and where a residential dwelling must be elevated above a flood hazard area.
D. Surface Lot: Surface lots provide uncovered, at grade parking spaces. Surface lots shall be located according to the rules set forth in section 14-2G-3, "Subdistrict Standards", of this article.
E. Midblock Structure: Midblock structures are freestanding parking structures located in the center of a larger block. Midblock structures shall be set back from adjacent buildings by at least forty feet (40') to provide sufficient light and privacy for commercial or residential uses facing the block interior. This setback may accommodate an alley, private rear lane, and/or rear yards.
F. Lined Structure: Lined structures are parking structures located behind shallow liner buildings that are oriented solely toward the street. Lined structures may be directly attached to the liner building or detached by a minimal fire separation distance. Lined structures shall be limited to a height that is adequately screened from public view by the associated liner building.
G. Integrated Structure: Integrated structures are parking structures located within an occupied building. Integrated structures may be fully or partially integrated into the building.
H. Underground Structure: Underground structures are parking structures located below grade. Underground structures may be combined with other aboveground parking types.
