10-5-3: OFF-STREET PARKING AND LOADING:
   A.   Purpose: This section is intended to provide for the location and design of off-street parking areas to accommodate motor vehicles, while balancing the needs of pedestrians, and bicyclists. Parking areas are secondary and supportive to the primary land uses on the site, and parking lot design should emphasize the primary facade and orient pedestrians toward the principal entranceways and walkways.
   B.   Applicability:
      1.   Generally:
         a.   The off-street parking and loading standards of this section shall apply to all parking lots and parking structures accessory to any new building constructed and to any new use established in every district.
         b.   The requirements of this section shall apply to all temporary parking lots and parking lots that are the principal use on a site.
      2.   Expansions And Enlargements: Where an existing parking area is altered or expanded to increase the number of spaces to a total of more than twenty (20), the standards of this section shall apply.
      3.   Downtown Overlay District Exempted: Off-street parking is not required for uses in the DT District.
   C.   Computation Of Parking And Loading Requirements:
      1.   Fractions: When measurements of the number of required spaces result in a fractional number, any fraction shall be rounded up to the next higher whole number.
      2.   Multiple Uses: Lots containing more than one use shall provide parking and loading in an amount equal to the total of the requirements for all uses, unless otherwise modified by the parking alternatives in subsection G of this section.
      3.   Area Measurements: Unless otherwise specified, all square footage-based parking and loading standards shall be computed on the basis of gross floor area of the use in question. Structured parking within a building shall not be counted in such measurement.
      4.   Computation Of Off-Street Parking: Required off-street loading spaces shall not be included as off-street parking spaces in computation of required off-street parking spaces.
      5.   Parking For Unlisted Uses: Parking requirements for uses not specifically listed in table 5.3-1 of this section shall be determined by the City Administrator based on the requirements for the closest comparable use. The City Administrator may alternately require the submittal of a parking demand study that justifies estimates of parking demand based on the recommendations of the Institute of Transportation Engineers, and includes relevant data collected from uses or combinations of uses that are the same or comparable to the proposed use in terms of density, scale, bulk, area, type of activity, and location.
      6.   Approval Required: Listed uses in the tables in this section does not indicate acceptance of use by the City, its staff or any board, council or commission.
   D.   Off-Street Parking Requirements:
      1.   Schedule A: Unless otherwise expressly stated in this title, off-street parking spaces shall be provided in accordance with table 5.3-1 of this subsection (does not constitute approval):

      3.   Schedule C: Uses that reference "schedule C" in table 5.3-1 of this section have widely varying parking and loading demand characteristics, making it impossible to specify a single off- street parking or loading standard. Upon receiving a development application for a use subject to Schedule C standards, the City Administrator shall apply the off-street parking and loading standard specified for the listed use that is deemed most similar to the proposed use or establish minimum off-street parking requirements on the basis of a parking and loading study prepared by the applicant. Such a study shall include estimates of parking demand based on recommendations of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), or other acceptable estimates as approved by the City Administrator, and should include other reliable data collected from uses or combinations of uses that are the same as or comparable with the proposed use. Comparability will be determined by density, scale, bulk, area, type of activity, and location. The study shall document the source of data used to develop the recommendations.
   E.   Stacking Spaces For Drive-Through Uses: In addition to meeting the off-street parking requirements of this section, drive- through facilities specified in table 5.3-3 of this subsection shall comply with the following minimum stacking space standards:

The City Administrator may approve such shared parking facilities for developments or uses if the shared parking spaces will be located within six hundred feet (600') of an entrance to the building the parking is intended to serve (measured along the shortest legal pedestrian route).
      2.   Off-Site Parking: The City Administrator may approve the location of required off-street parking spaces on a separate lot from the lot on which the principal use is located if the off- site parking complies with all of the following standards:
         a.   Location: No off-site parking space may be located more than six hundred feet (600') from an entrance (measured along the shortest legal pedestrian route) of the use it is intended to serve. Off-site parking spaces may not be separated from the use served by a street right-of-way with a width of more than eighty feet (80'), unless a grade-separated pedestrian walkway, a traffic signal, a shuttle bus, or other traffic control is provided or remote parking shuttle bus service is provided.
         b.   Control Of Site: Required parking spaces for residential uses must be located on the site of the use or within a tract owned in common by all the owners of the properties that will use the tract.
         c.   Ineligible Activities: Required parking spaces for persons with disabilities may not be located off-site.
      3.   Other Eligible Alternatives: At the City's discretion, the City Administrator may approve any other alternative to providing off-street parking spaces on the site of the subject development if the applicant demonstrates to the satisfaction of the City Administrator that the proposed plan will protect surrounding neighborhoods, maintain traffic circulation patterns, and promote quality urban design to at least the same extent as would strict compliance with otherwise applicable off-street parking standards.
