      2.   Uses with Variable Parking Demand Characteristics and Unlisted Uses

   For some listed uses, Table 155.5102.D.1, Minimum Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces, refers to this subsection because the use has widely varying parking and loading demand characteristics, making it difficult to establish a single appropriate off-street parking or loading standard. On receiving an application proposing such a use, or proposing a use not expressly listed in Table 155.5102.D.1, the Development Services Director is authorized to:

         a.   Apply the minimum off-street parking space requirement specified in Table 155.5102.D.1 for the listed use that is deemed most similar to the proposed use; or

         b.   Establish the minimum off-street parking space requirement by reference to standard parking resources published by the National Parking Association or the American Planning Association; or

         c.   Establish the minimum off-street parking space requirement based on a parking demand study prepared by the applicant that estimates parking demand based on the recommendations of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) or other acceptable source of parking demand data, and that 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.

      3.   Multiple Use Developments

         a.   Except for shopping centers (See Table 155.5102.D.1, Minimum Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces.) and hotels or motels and apartment hotels (See b below.), developments containing more than one principal institutional or commercial use shall provide parking spaces in an amount equal to the total of the requirements applied to all individual principal uses.

         b.   Where more than 20 percent of the total gross floor area of a hotel or motel or an condo hotel is occupied by non-sleeping or non-dwelling principal or accessory uses (e.g., office, retail, service, restaurant, bar, nightclub, ballrooms, banquet rooms, meeting rooms), off-street parking shall be provided for each such use in an amount equal to 50 percent of the parking requirement applicable to the use if it were an individual principal use—except that where a hotel or condo hotel contains 50 or more lodging units and a restaurant and/or bar advertised by exterior signage, off-street parking shall be for such restaurant and/or bar in an amount equal to 75 percent of the parking requirement(s) applicable to a restaurant and/or bar as a principal use.

         c.   These provisions shall not limit the opportunity to reduce the minimum number of required off-street parking spaces through approval of an alternative parking plan that justifies the feasibility of shared parking (See Section 155.5102.J.3, Shared Parking.)

      4.   Maximum Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces

   For any use listed under the commercial use classification in Table 155.5102.D.1, Minimum Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces, the number of off-street parking spaces shall not exceed 125 percent of the minimum number of parking spaces required, except as may be allowed through approval of an alternative parking plan in accordance with Section 155.5102.J.2, Provision over Maximum Allowed.

   E.   Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Stations

Up to ten percent of the required number of off-street parking spaces may be used and designated as electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, subject to the standards in subsection [ ] below. The Development Services Director shall have authority to approve the use and designation of additional required parking spaces as electric vehicle charging stations, provided that such additional spaces shall count as only one-half of a parking space when computing the minimum number of parking spaces required. Parking spaces used as electric vehicle charging stations shall consist as one or more group(s) of contiguous spaces located where they can be readily identified by electric vehicle drivers (e.g., through directional signage), but where their use by non-electric vehicles is discouraged (e.g., not in locations most convenient to the entrances of the buildings served).

   F.   On-Street Parking

Except as authorized as part of an alternative parking plan in Section 155.5102.J, Off-Street Parking Alternatives, on-street parking on streets or driveways shall not be used to satisfy the off-street parking standards of this section. Refer to Chapter 100 (Streets and Sidewalks) of Code of Ordinances for parking within the public right-of-way.

   G.   Driveways Used to Satisfy Requirements

For single-family, two-family, and mobile home dwellings, driveways may be used to satisfy minimum off-street parking space requirements, provided sufficient space is available outside a street right-of-way or easement to satisfy the standards of this section and this Code. If a garage or carport is converted, such that it no longer provides parking for a single-family, two-family, or mobile home dwelling, the driveway must be able to provide parking for the minimum number of off-street parking spaces in accordance with Table 155.5102.D.1. The driveway must also comply with the standards of Section 155.5101.G.7.b.

   H.   Accessible Parking Spaces for Physically Disabled Persons 

In each off-street parking area, a portion of the total number of off-street parking spaces shall be spaces specifically designated, located, and reserved for use by persons with physical disabilities ("accessible parking spaces"), in accordance with the standards of the Florida Accessibility Code for Building Construction, as amended.

   I.   Dimensional Standards for Parking Spaces and Aisles

      1.   General

   Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2 below, standard vehicle parking spaces and parking lot aisles shall comply with the minimum dimensional standards established in Table 155.5102.I.1, Dimensional Standards for Parking Spaces and Aisles.
