For the purpose of computing gross parking area for required
off-street parking, 350 square feet of unobstructed net standing,
maneuvering or access area shall be considered as one parking space.
However, a lesser area may be considered as one parking space if the
Town Board decides that the layout and design of the parking area
are adequate to permit convenient access and maneuvering. In any event,
the size of a parking space shall be at least 20 feet long and 10
feet wide exclusive of access or maneuvering area.
Gross floor area shall include all areas of a building as mentioned in §§
108-55 and
108-56; provided, however, that basement or cellar floor area not used for processing, servicing or sales of goods or merchandise shall not be counted as gross floor area.
In places of assembly, other than churches, where bench-type
seats are provided or where standing patrons are served at a counter
or bar, each 20 linear inches of such seating or standing space shall
be considered as one seat for the purpose of determining off-street
parking requirements.
In any case where there is more than one work shift, the total
number of employees used to compute off-street parking requirements
shall include the maximum number of employees on two shifts.
When application of the units of measurement to determine required
off-street parking spaces results in a fractional parking space of
1/2 or more, one parking space shall be required.
