(A) No building shall be erected, substantially altered, nor any new use of the land initiated without sufficient off-street parking space on the premises so that no additional automobile parking on any street will result from the normal activity. If the off-street parking capacity is exceeded and street parking is generated more often than six times during a six-month period, this shall be considered as resulting from normal activity, and additional off-street parking shall be provided. The Board of Adjustment shall interpret the amount of parking space required for any building or use, assisted by the following standards, whenever the Administrative/Enforcement Officer is unable to apply the following standards literally or determines a parking space deficiency according to the standard above. In either case, he shall apply to the Board for an original interpretation.
(B) Whenever a building or structure constructed after the effective date of this chapter is changed or enlarged in floor area, number of employees, number of housing units, seating capacity or otherwise to create a need for an increase in the number of existing parking spaces, additional parking spaces shall be provided on the basis of the enlargement or change; provided that whenever a building or structure existing prior to the effective date of this chapter is enlarged to the extent of 50% or more in floor area, number of employees, number of housing units, seating capacity or otherwise, said building or structure shall then and thereafter comply with the full parking requirements set forth herein.
