10-38-4: RULES FOR COMPUTING REQUIREMENTS:

The following rules apply when computing off-street parking and loading requirements:

   A.   Multiple Uses Lots containing more than one use shall provide parking in an amount equal to the total of the requirements for all uses. The decision-makers may award a reduction of not more than fifteen percent (15%) when it can be found that the uses within the business or development share general customer traffic.

   B.   Fractions When measurements of the number of required spaces result in fractions, any fraction of one-half or less will be disregarded and any fraction of more than one-half will be rounded upward to the next highest whole number.

   C.   Area Measurements Unless otherwise specifically noted, all square footage-based parking and loading standards are to be computed on the basis of gross floor area.

   D.   Occupancy-Based Standards For the purpose of computing parking requirements based on employees, students, residents or occupants, calculations shall be based on the largest number of persons working on any single shift, the maximum enrollment or the maximum fire-rated capacity, whichever is applicable and whichever results in the greater number of spaces.

   E.   Unlisted Uses Upon receiving a development application for a use not specifically listed in an off-street parking schedule, the Planning Commission shall apply the off-street parking standard specified for the listed use that is deemed most similar to the proposed use or require a parking study in accordance with this chapter.

   Table 10-38-4: Parking by Land Use Category

Unless otherwise states, calculations using square footage shall mean Gross Leasable Area. Land uses with unique parking characteristics refer to the subsection following this table. The number of parking spaces specified in this chapter shall not be exceeded or reduced by an amount of more than twenty-five percent of the minimum (or maximum is applicable). Bicycle parking standards refer to the subsection 10-38-10 .
