Land uses are required to have off-street parking as specified in the following matrix. Where uses are not specified, the use most closely associated should be used.
(a) Units of Measurement.
(1) Square footage of usable floor area measurement. For the purpose of determining parking space requirements in this Chapter, the unit of measurement used in the Parking Space Matrix termed "square feet" refers to the total square footage of "usable floor area". This means the area used for service to the public and excludes area used principally for nonpublic purposes such as storage, incidental repair, processing, show window, rest rooms and dressing rooms.
(2) Employee measurement. For the purpose of determining parking space requirements in this Chapter, the unit of measurement used in the Parking Space Matrix termed "employee(s)" refers to the total number of employees during the shift of greatest employment.
(3) Any derived number with a fractional value of more than one-half (½) shall be rounded to the next highest whole number.
(4) Required parking is determined by one or more measurements of characteristics of the land use. The total number of parking spaces is determined by adding all associated units of measurements.
