1183.06 LAND BANKING OF REQUIRED PARKING.
(a) The Planning and Zoning Commission shall determine the number of parking spaces to be constructed, as may be appropriate, based on the evidence submitted. Reduction in the number of parking spaces to actually be constructed may be authorized by the Planning and Zoning Commission when the applicant shows that the required number of parking spaces set forth in Section 1183.05 is substantially in excess of the parking needed to reasonably serve the employees, patrons, and other persons frequenting the subject property.
(b) The site plan shall indicate how the additional number of spaces otherwise required could subsequently be provided on the site, and in all cases, with review and approval by the Village Engineer, the storm water management systems must be designed and constructed to accommodate all land banked spaces as detailed in Chapter 1128 Comprehensive Storm Water Management.
(1) The additional parking area shall be designed to comply with all required yards, setbacks, and driveways for subject property and shall meet all requirements of this Code. The additional parking areas design may be a surface lot or parking garage, as determined in the site plan.
(2) Landscaping of the land banked area must be in full compliance of the zoning regulations and at a minimum, vegetation approved by the Planning and Zoning Commission, shall substantially cover the land banked area. The Planning and Zoning Commission may require additional landscaping of the land banked area.
(c) The land banked area shall not be used for any other purpose and must be part of the same zoning lot and all under the same ownership.
(d) The Planning and Zoning Commission on the basis of increased parking demand, may require the conversion of all or part of the land banked area to off-street parking spaces.
(e) The reservation of said spaces and the purpose therefore, shall be shown upon the approved plans as "Land Banked Future Parking" and shall be a component of any future submittal involving the subject property. (Ord.2010-41. Passed 1-18-11.)
1183.07 SEPARATE OR COMBINED USE OF FACILITIES.
(a) A building containing one use shall provide the off-street parking spaces as required for the specific use. A building or group of buildings containing two or more uses, operating normally during the same hours, and which have different off-street parking requirements shall provide spaces for not less than the sum of the spaces required for each use.
(b) Institutions and businesses, as set forth in the Schedule of Section 1183.05, may assume that up to, but not more than fifty percent of their requirements may be shared in adjacent parking areas which are accessory to institution or business establishments and which normally have different hours of operation. Provided, however, where there is a sharing of facilities by different owners, there shall be a contract covering a period of time as may be required by the Planning and Zoning Commission and provided further, that should any of the uses be changed or the facilities discontinued, then the required spaces for the use remaining shall be provided elsewhere as a condition precedent to the continued use of such building or buildings. The applicant must then provide written notification of the change to the Planning and Zoning Commission within 60 days of change, providing a remedy satisfactory to the Planning and Zoning Commission to ensure adequate parking.
(c) The Planning and Zoning Commission may require the applicant to provide a parking study with information deemed necessary to its review of a shared parking arrangement. This information includes but is not limited to:
(1) The type and hours of operation and parking demand, for each land use.
(2) A site plan displaying shared use spaces in the lot and walking distance to the uses sharing the lot.
(3) A description of the character of land use and parking patterns of adjacent land uses.
(4) An estimate of anticipated turnover in parking space use over the course of 12 to 24 hours at the site.
(5) Consideration of snow removal activities and snow storage capacity in lot.
(d) Parking spaces to be shared must not be reserved for individuals or groups on a 24-hour basis.
(e) Users sharing a parking facility shall provide for safe, convenient walking between land uses and parking, including safe, well-marked pedestrian crossings, signage and adequate lighting. (Ord.2010-41. Passed 1-18-11.)
1183.08 ACCESS DRIVES TO PARKING AREAS.
(a) The location and width of entrance and exit driveways to parking facilities and "drive-in" businesses, shall be planned to interfere as little as possible with the use of nearby property and with pedestrian and vehicular traffic on the nearest streets and the streets to which they connect. Access to the streets shall be controlled in the interest of public safety and to maintain the designed capacity of the street system and to control access along State arterial highways adjacent to freeway interchanges. Therefore, the centerline of the access driveways on the frontage street shall be at least 100 feet from the right-of-way line of the nearest intersecting street and spaced at not less than 180 feet intervals measured from the center line of the driveways, provided, however, that driveways to serve gasoline service stations shall be in accord with "Regulations Governing Ingress and Egress at Gasoline Service Stations Fronting on Highways" Ohio Department of Highways, February 1, 1955, or amendments thereto. At least two separate driveways shall be provided, and whenever possible they shall be limited to either entrance or exit if deemed necessary by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
(b) Entrances and exits shall be limited to two lanes and shall be so designed so that all vehicles can be driven forward into the street. The width of such entrances and exits shall conform to the following schedule:
Width Measured in Feet | ||
Lanes | Minimum | Maximum |
1 | 10 | 12 |
2 | 20 | 24 |
3 | 30 | 36 |
(1) Joint use driveways: A system of joint use driveways and cross access easements shall be established and used to the maximum extent practicable as determined by the Village. The system of joint use driveways shall incorporate the following:
A. Stub-outs and other design features to make it visually obvious that the abutting properties may be tied in to provide cross-access via a service drive.
B. A unified access and circulation plan for coordinated or shared parking areas.
C. An easement with the deed recorded by all participating property owners allowing cross access to and from other properties served by the joint use driveways.
(c) In all cases the radius of the edge of the apron shall be at least twenty feet so that a motor vehicle may enter or leave the curb lane without obstructing vehicles in other traffic lanes. The maximum curb cut shall be limited to the width of the entrance or exit plus the radius of the apron.
(d) For "drive-in" facilities such as, but not confined to auto washes, food service or pick-up and bank teller windows, adequate drives in addition to that specified herein shall be provided on the property for the lining up of motor vehicles awaiting the occupants turn. Such lines shall not be permitted to form on public ways.
(e) No entrance or exit driveway shall be constructed or maintained so as to lead to or from a local residential street abutting a local business district. The words "local residential street" mean a street used primarily for access to abutting residential properties. The angle of intersection between the driveway and the street shall be between seventy degrees and ninety degrees.
(f) The developments abutting Wilson Mills Road for a distance of 1200 feet from the nearest intersection of a freeway ramp shall be planned so that the first access street or driveway onto Wilson Mills shall be not less than 600 feet from the outermost ramp terminal right of way and the successive access point shall be spaced at intervals not less than 600 feet on center. These objectives may be accomplished by marginal service roads, parallel service roads, combining the access of several developments or their approved facilities. Whenever it is not feasible to provide such facilities at the time of the original development, the Commission may grant temporary access for use at lesser distances for a limited period of time, provided the developments and future control facilities are planned so as not to cause any substantial extra costs to the public or cause relocations or structures when the permanent facilities are constructed.
(g) To carry out the above purposes and objectives on sections of Wilson Mills Road or other major streets within the area of influence but more than 1200 feet from the interchange, the Commission may permit the spacing of accessways at lesser intervals but not less than 200 feet on center, if the projected volume of traffic warrants more frequent spacing.
(Ord. 2010-41. Passed 1-18-11.)
1183.09 OFF-STREET LOADING FACILITIES.
Loading and/or unloading facilities shall be provided for all business, service, commercial and industrial buildings hereafter erected or altered for such uses. The facilities shall be maintained as long as such building is occupied, shall continue unobstructed and not be used for repair or servicing of motor vehicles. Space required and allocated for off-street parking shall not be allocated or used to satisfy the space requirements for off-street loading.
(a) Space Required. A required off-street loading space shall be at least twelve feet wide by at least twenty-five feet in length for buildings less than 15,000 square feet of gross floor area, and each required loading space for a building of 15,000 square feet or more of floor area shall be not less than fourteen feet wide by sixty feet in length. Each space shall have a vertical clearance of at least fourteen feet. The above areas shall be exclusive of aisle and maneuvering space. For manufacturing and service uses the maneuvering space or apron for off-street loading shall be at least sixty feet wide measured from the outermost part of any vehicle backed up to a loading dock or any other possible obstruction in the maneuvering area.
Uses which otherwise require off-street loading facilities but are located for buildings of less than 5,000 square feet of floor area shall be provided with a receiving platform or other facilities adjacent to a service drive or other open space on the same lot.
(b) Location and Design. Loading facilities shall not be located in a front yard or in a required side or rear yard. Off-street loading spaces shall be provided with surface improvements as required for parking areas. Each required off-street loading space shall be designed for direct vehicular access by means of a driveway or driveways to a public street in a manner which will least interfere with traffic movements and lane encroachment. The access shall be located so that the driveway center line shall be not less than 100 feet from the nearest intersecting street line.
(c) Schedule of Requirements. Loading spaces shall be provided in accordance with the following schedule:
Building or Use | Gross Floor Area of Building (Sq. Ft.) | Required Number of Spaces |
Retail stores of all types | 5,000 - 10,000 | 1 |
10,000 - 40,000 | 2 | |
40,000 - 100,000 | 3 | |
each additional 50,000 | 1 additional space | |
All manufacturing service and storage establishments | Up to 40,000 | 1 |
40,000 - 100,000 | 2 | |
each additional 50,000 | 1 additional space | |
