(A) The provisions of this subchapter shall apply to all zoning districts.
(B) The duty to provide and maintain off-street parking and loading facilities shall be the joint and shared responsibility of the operator and the owner of the use or uses for which the off-street parking is required.
(C) The parking spaces in any off-street parking or loading facility which already existed on 5-1-1988, shall not be reduced below the requirements and standards for the use or uses for which the off-street parking is required.
(D) If the parking spaces in an off-street parking or loading facility which already exists on the effective date of this chapter do not conform to the requirements of this subchapter, the existing facilities shall not be further reduced below the requirements and standards for the use or uses for which the off-street parking is required.
(E) If an existing building, structure or use is damaged or destroyed and subsequently repaired or rebuilt, off-street parking and loading facilities equivalent to those maintained at the time of such damage or destruction shall be restored, but additional spaces need not be provided.
(F) If any building, structure or use is enlarged or expanded, the owner of such use shall provide additional off-street parking and loading facilities, as required by the provisions of this section; provided, however, that, if the Zoning Administrator determines that such compliance is clearly not possible, the owner shall be required to provide only the amount of additional parking such enlargement or expansion would require as a separate use.
(G) If the existing use of a lot, building or structure is changed to a different use, the owner of such use shall provide off-street parking and loading facilities as required by the provisions of this section.
(H) All off-street parking and loading facilities, whether provided in accordance with this chapter, or in accordance with the provisions of any previous ordinance, shall be maintained as required by this section.
