1155.02 APPLICABILITY OF REGULATIONS.

   The off-street parking and loading provisions of this Zoning Ordinance shall apply as follows:

   (a)    For all buildings and structures erected and all uses of land established after the effective date of this section (Ordinance 10-16-67, passed November 20, 1967), accessory parking and loading facilities shall be provided as required by the regulations of the district in which such buildings or uses are located. However, where a building permit has been issued prior to the effective date of this section (Ordinance 10-16-67, passed November 20, 1967), and provided that construction is begun within one year of such effective date, and diligently prosecuted to completion, parking and loading facilities as required hereinafter need not be provided.

   (b)    When the intensity of use of any building, structure or premises shall be increased through addition of dwelling units, gross floor area, seating capacity or other units of measurement specified herein for required parking or loading facilities, parking and loading facilities as required herein shall be provided for such increase in intensity of use.

   However, no building or structure lawfully erected or use lawfully established prior to the effective date of this section shall be required to provide such additional parking or loading facilities unless and until the aggregate increase in unit of measurement shall equal not less than fifteen percent of the unit of measurement existing upon the effective date of this section, in which event parking or loading facilities as required herein shall be provided for the total increase.

   (c)    Whenever the existing use of a building or structure shall be changed hereafter to a new use, parking or loading facilities shall be provided as required for such new use. However, if the building or structure was erected prior to the effective date of this section, additional parking or loading facilities are mandatory only in the amount by which the requirements for the new use would exceed those for the existing use if the latter were subject to the parking and loading provisions of this Zoning Ordinance.
