§ 15.40.030. Special off-street parking requirements.

In determining the required amount of off-street parking, the following special rules shall apply:

A.

In computing the parking requirements for any building or development, the total parking requirements shall be the sum of the specific parking space requirements for each class of use included in the building or development.

B.

No parking space, garage or carport or other vehicle storage space or structure shall be used in computing off-street parking, except in commercial and PUD areas.

C.

A fifteen dollar permit fee shall be required at the time of application for approval of any new parking space or change in an existing parking space.

D.

To satisfy the off-street parking space requirements, a parking space shall be paved with asphalt or concrete, be provided with a similarly paved driveway connecting it to a street or alley and be established, maintained and marked in accordance with this regulation.

E.

No off-street parking space adjacent to a public street wherein the maneuvering of the vehicle in parking space is done on the public street shall be classified as off-street parking in determining satisfaction of any parking requirements herein specified, except that parking requirements for single-family and two-family residential housing units may be met in such manner.

F.

No off-street parking area incidental to a main use, commercial parking lot or structure, or vehicle storage area shall project into the public right-of-way of any street or alley, except that, where not otherwise prohibited by law or ordinance, customer and employee parking areas incidental to a main use may project beyond the right-of-way of a street when the following conditions are met:

1.

The city staff planning committee determines such parking arrangement does not create a traffic hazard and adequate space for pedestrian traffic is provided;

2.

The parking area is established and marked in accordance with the regulations.

Parking spaces provided in such manner shall not be classified as off-street parking in determining satisfaction of any parking requirements herein specified.
