(A)
All developments shall provide a sufficient number of parking spaces to accommodate the number of vehicles that ordinarily are likely to be attracted to the facility in question.
(B) (1) The presumptions established by this subchapter are that:
(a) A development must comply with the parking standards set forth in division (F) below to satisfy the requirement stated in division (A) above; and
(b) Any development that does meet these standards is in compliance.
(2) However, the table of parking standards is only intended to establish a presumption and should be flexibly administered, as provided in § 153.208.
(C) Uses in the table of parking requirements (division (F) below) are indicated by a numerical reference keyed to the Table of Permissible Uses (§ 153.080). When determination of the number of parking spaces required by this table results in a requirement of a fractional space, any fraction of one-half or less may be disregarded, while a fraction in excess of one-half shall be counted as one parking space.
(D) With respect to any parking lot that is required to be paved (see § 153.212), the number of parking spaces required by this article may be reduced by one if the developer provides a bike rack or similar device that offers a secure parking area for at least five bicycles.
(E) The Board of Aldermen recognizes that the table of parking requirements set forth in division (F) below cannot and does not cover every possible situation that may arise. Therefore, in cases not specifically covered, the permit-issuing authority is authorized to determine the parking requirements using this table as a guide.
