§ 16.46.010 PURPOSE AND INTENT.
   The purpose of the parking and loading requirements set forth in this chapter is to ensure that each development project in the city provides adequate off-street parking facilities, loading areas, and vehicle movement areas to meet the demands of the associated use. The intent of these regulations is to ensure that the use of land does not interfere adversely with circulation on public rights-of-way, that private on-site circulation does not pose a potential safety hazard, and that surrounding uses are insulated from the noise and traffic impacts associated with off-street parking and loading activities.
