City of Washington, MO Off-Street Parking And Loading Requirements

[R.O. 1992 § 400.245; Ord. No. 16-11557, 8-15-2016, effective 3-1-2017]

It is the purpose of these off-street parking and loading requirements to provide for sufficient accessory use areas for the temporary parking of motor vehicles and for loading and unloading of transport vehicles associated with large multifamily dwellings, commercial uses, and industrial uses. The requirements for off-street parking and loading spaces are intended to reduce the congestion on the streets due to excessive use of such streets for parking and/or loading and unloading of motor vehicles.

However, certain exceptions from these requirements are provided for under special circumstances. These exceptions are provided as a practical matter so as not to unduly limit the reuse of existing developed properties by strictly imposing off-street parking space standards. Even with the exceptions from the regulations contained in this Article, it is not the intent to permit such exceptions that would result in undue impacts of overflow parking from one use onto other properties or public rights-of-way.

Section 400.250 Applicability.

[R.O. 1992 § 400.250; Ord. No. 16-11557, 8-15-2016, effective 3-1-2017]

For every use, activity or structure permitted by this Chapter, and for all buildings or structures erected in accordance therewith, there shall be provided sufficient space for access and off-street standing, parking, circulation, unloading and loading of motor vehicles that may be expected to transport their occupants, whether as patrons, residents, customers, employees, guests or otherwise, to an establishment, activity or place of residence at any time under normal conditions for any purpose. Except as otherwise provided for in this Article, when a use is expanded or changed, accessory off-street parking and loading shall be provided in accordance with the regulations herein for the area or capacity of such expansion or change.

Section 400.255 Design And Location Requirements.

[R.O. 1992 § 400.255; Ord. No. 16-11557, 8-15-2016, effective 3-1-2017]

Construction Requirements.

Surfacing And Drainage.

Parking Areas. All open off-street parking areas and driveways shall be graded and paved with a durable, dust-free and hard material, such as bituminous hot mix or portland cement concrete, or some comparable material. Off-street parking areas for one-family and two-family dwellings shall be paved as specified above. All parking areas and driveways shall be properly drained so as to avoid surface "puddling" or any nuisance or damage to adjacent property.

Loading Areas. All loading spaces shall be improved with a compacted select gravel base, not less than seven (7) inches thick, and surfaced with an all-weather, dustless material, such as bituminous hot mix or portland cement concrete, suitably designed for intended use.

Perimeter Curbing. Except for parking areas accessory to one-family and two-family dwellings, fixed and permanent wheel bumpers or curbs of concrete or comparable material at least four (4) inches high shall be installed for each parking stall which is located along the perimeter of any off-street parking area.

Vehicular Access And Circulation.

Access.

Access To Parking And Loading Areas. Off-street parking or loading areas shall be provided with vehicular access via curb cuts and access drives from an improved street or alley which will least interfere with vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Except for off-street parking accessory to one-family and two-family dwellings, such parking areas shall be designed to avoid motor vehicles backing into public streets, alleys or sidewalks.

Access To Parking And Loading Spaces. Each off-street parking and loading space shall be accessible directly from an aisle or driveway. The only exception to this requirement is off-street parking associated with residential dwellings (other than apartment dwellings) and parking reserved exclusively for vehicle sales, leasing, or rental.

Parking Area Delineations. All parking lots shall be striped to provide a visible indicator for vehicle circulation and parking maneuvers. Parking spaces and other circulation markings shall be restored, as necessary, to maintain a clear identification of separate parking stall spaces and other markings at all times.

Traffic Control. Vehicular traffic to, from and within an off-street parking or loading area shall be controlled by appropriate traffic control signs, surface markings and curb islands. All parking areas which will, in the opinion of the Zoning Administrator, generate a significant volume of traffic movement shall have their entrances clearly marked and designated as to direction of traffic flow or other conditions of use of the access driveway by the use of low-profile signs.

Location Of Parking Areas.

All required off-street parking shall be provided on the same zoning lot occupied by the use or building to which it is appurtenant, except as provided for below.

In the event that there exist practical difficulties in satisfying the requirement for parking spaces and/or if the public safety and convenience would be adequately served by another location, the Zoning Administrator may authorize an alternate location, subject to the following conditions:

If parking is to be located elsewhere than on the lot on which the principal use is located, then the "off-site" property to be utilized for parking shall be in the same possession (either by deed, or by easement, or long-term lease which has a term equal to or exceeding the projected life or term of lease of the facility) as the owner of the principal use. In addition, the owner of property used for off-site parking shall be bound by covenants filed in the office of the Franklin County Recorder of Deeds, requiring such owner, successors, and assigns to maintain the required number of off-street parking spaces during the existence of such principal use utilizing the property for parking.

Such off-site parking areas shall be located not more than three hundred (300) feet from the nearest primary entrance to the principal building being served, provided the lot for which off-site parking is to be provided is located in a zoning district that permits a parking lot or structure as a principal use. In addition, such off-site parking areas shall not be located so as to cause persons to cross an arterial street to get from said parking area to the principal use which it serves.

Parking And Loading Area Setback Requirements.

Except as otherwise limited by the provisions of this Chapter, parking areas, circulation aisles, and driveways may be located in a required front yard, side yard, or rear yard.

Exception: Where no building setback is required by this Chapter, or where a parking area is be located adjacent to a similarly zoned property and cross-access is provided between the two properties, the five-foot setback requirement shall not apply to the cross-access drive.

On lots developed with one-family or two-family dwellings, no motor vehicle shall be permitted to be parked between the dwelling and any street unless such vehicle is parked upon a driveway. Said driveway shall conform to all of the following standards:

The driveway shall not be wider than forty percent (40%) of the width of the lot on which the driveway is located or thirty-six (36) feet, whichever is less;

The driveway shall not cover more than forty percent (40%) of the required front yard; and

In all instances, no vehicle shall be parked so as to have any portion of the vehicle located over a public or private sidewalk or pedestrianway.

Dimensional Standards.

Parking Areas. Except for off-street parking associated with one-family or two-family dwellings, and as otherwise provided in this Section, the minimum dimensional requirements shown in Figure 1 shall apply to all off-street parking areas.

Loading Areas. The area of loading berths or spaces shall be at least twelve (12) feet in width and at least twenty-five (25) feet in length [forty-five (45) feet for tractor/trailer loading berths], exclusive of aisle and maneuvering space, and shall have a vertical clearance of at least fourteen (14) feet.

Exceptions To Dimensional Standards:

Additional aisle width and turning radii may be required to accommodate emergency vehicles and equipment, or where the aisle serves as a principal means of access and circulation within the site, including access to loading spaces, drive-through facilities, or trash storage facilities.

If the desired parking angle is not specified in this Section, the Zoning Administrator may specify other equivalent dimensions associated with the desired parking angle by interpolating from dimensional standards specified in this Section.

The Zoning Administrator may authorize a reduction in the vehicle projection (stall depth), as specified in this Section, where parking stalls front along the curbed perimeter portion of the parking area (without wheel stops or bumpers). This reduction shall only be permitted where such a reduction will not result in an obstruction to pedestrians on adjacent sidewalks and where there is sufficient clearance between the curb and the vehicle overhang. The reduction shall comply with the dimensional limitations contained in Figure 2.

Section 400.260 Supplementary Off-Street Parking And Loading Regulations.

[R.O. 1992 § 400.260; Ord. No. 16-11557, 8-15-2016, effective 3-1-2017]

Determination Of Required Number of Spaces.

Employees. Employees, when used as a measurement for determining the number of parking spaces, shall be based on the number of employees that can be expected to be on the premises during the largest shift. The number of employees shall be based on the use activity operating at full capacity.

Floor Area. Except as otherwise described in the minimum off-street parking and loading spaces (Section 400.265), the term "floor area," as employed in this Article, shall include the sum of the area of horizontal surfaces of all floors of a building, measured from the exterior faces of exterior walls, less the floor area devoted to elevators, stairwells, mechanical rooms, restrooms, and areas devoted to off-street parking or loading.

Uses Not Specifically Established On Site Plan Or Not Listed In Schedule Of Required Parking. If there is any uncertainty with respect to the amount of parking space required by the provisions of this Article as a result of any indefiniteness as to the proposed use of a building or of land, the maximum requirement for the general type of use that is involved shall govern. In the event that a development proposal includes uses not specifically listed in the Schedule of Required Parking and Loading, the Zoning Administrator shall determine the number of required parking spaces based on the similarity of such use(s) to other uses contained in Section 400.265 of this Article.

Fractional Parking Spaces. When application of the schedule of parking requirements as hereinafter provided calls for a certain number of parking spaces plus a fraction of a space, then such fraction shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number to determine the number of spaces required.

Handicapped Parking.

The Zoning Administrator may require a specific number of handicapped parking spaces to be sized and located to allow safe, accessible vehicle parking for the physically handicapped. The number and design of such spaces shall not be less than standards established by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and any standards for such design established by the Missouri Department of Transportation. The following minimum standards shall be applicable:

Handicapped parking spaces shall be twelve (12) feet in width and twenty (20) feet in depth and marked with the international symbol for disabled parking spaces.

A handicapped parking space shall be situated preferentially within the general parking area. Additionally, it shall be in a location which affords maximum safety and minimum exposure or risk to the disabled individual in traversing the path from his/her vehicle to the store or other facility which is his/her public destination.

The parking space shall be designated as reserved for the handicapped by a painted symbol on the paved area and shall be further designated as such with signage at a point four (4) feet above the paved surface so as to be clearly visible to the driver of any vehicle attempting to park in the space provided.

Parking For Multiple-Use Buildings. The number of parking spaces required for land or buildings used for two or more purposes shall be the sum of the requirements for the various uses, computed in accordance with this Article. Parking facilities for one use shall not be considered as providing the required parking facilities for any other use, except as provided for in Section 400.265 of this Chapter.

Prohibited Off-Street Parking Activities And Uses. The following off-street parking uses are expressly prohibited:

Off-street parking of vehicles or vehicular parts or accessories in violation the Washington Municipal Code.

The use of recreational vehicles for living, sleeping or housekeeping purposes when parked or stored in a dwelling zoning district.

Trucks and trailers designed and manufactured for or used for specific commercial purposes, including, but not limited to, wreckers, dump trucks, tracked vehicles, buses, construction vehicles and equipment vehicles and equipment carriers, bottling works delivery trucks, grain trucks and refrigerated trucks, are prohibited from parking in all residential districts as provided for in Article III of this Chapter. Vehicles (excluding mobile homes, recreational trailers, boats and recreational vehicles) licensed to haul in excess of twenty four thousand (24,000) pounds are not permitted. No mobile home, etc., may be parked in a front yard, as defined in Section 400.180(A) of this Chapter, for a total of thirty (30) days in a calendar year. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsection (D)(3) of this Section, any type of commercial vehicle, regardless of licensed or gross vehicle weight, delivering or picking up merchandise for delivery or employed in performing a repair or construction service may park for the purpose of making such pickup or delivery or for the duration of the period during which a repair or construction service is being performed on or to property in the area where parked.

Use Of Parking Spaces. Except as expressly permitted by this Chapter, no off-street parking area shall be utilized for any other purpose.

Use Of Loading Spaces. No loading space shall be utilized for any other purpose nor be used to satisfy any of the required off-street parking spaces.

Lighting. Lighting standards for parking lots, loading areas, access drives, private drives and other public activity areas shall be in compliance with the provisions of Article IV, Section 400.195(F).

Section 400.265 Minimum Required Off-Street Parking And Loading Spaces.

[R.O. 1992 § 400.265; Ord. No. 16-11557, 8-15-2016, effective 3-1-2017]

General Provisions.

Section 400.265(C) and (D) of this Article contain the required minimum number of parking and loading spaces for permitted uses, special uses, and uses authorized under the planned development procedure. In no case shall these standards be waived, except as provided for in Section 400.265(B).

For proposed uses not listed in the table of Section 400.265(C), the Table of Permitted and Special Uses of Article III, Section 400.120, may be used to determine the requirements based on the similarity of use. Uses in the same NAICS sector will, in many instances, have similar requirements. As an example, offices for accountants (NAICS Code 5411) will have similar requirements for those of architects or attorneys (also NAICS Code 5411). However, offices that have higher employment density (such as data processing or clearinghouse operations) may have greater requirements. In such instances, the provisions of Subsection (A)(3) below shall apply.

In situations where a use is proposed where the schedule of parking and loading requirements does not adequately address parking requirements for such use, then such use shall be considered a special use, if not already a special use. The special use permit for such use shall specify the required number of off-street parking spaces that satisfy the peak demand for parking associated with such use. In making its determination, the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council shall consider information on the parking demand associated with the proposed use as presented by the applicant and the Zoning Administrator.

Parking spaces for multiple-family subdivisions may be located and vehicles authorized to park in residential districts may be parked in the side or rear yards and in the front yard only where provisions for such parking are an integral part of the plan as shown on a final plat. Driveways and parking areas shall be an improved surface of either asphalt or concrete.

Parking facilities may be jointly used by certain land uses as follows:

Up to fifty percent (50%) of the required parking spaces for theaters, public auditoriums, bowling alleys, dance halls, nightclubs, or cafes; and up to one hundred percent (100%) of the parking spaces required for a church or school auditorium, may be provided and used jointly by banks, offices, retail stores, repair shops, service establishments and similar uses not normally open, used or operated during the same hours as those listed in Subsection (A)(1) and (2) above.

However, any such joint use arrangement as outlined above must be accompanied by a written agreement assuring the use and retention of the allotted parking spaces for such purposes that shall be properly drawn and executed by the parties concerned and shall be filed with the application for a building permit or occupancy permit.

Exceptions To The Minimum Off-Street Parking And Loading Space Requirements.

Exception for the C-3 District:

Section 400.265(C) and (D) of this Article shall not apply to any reoccupancy of existing buildings or structures, whether or not the new use is similar to the previously permitted use, when located within the following area of the C-3 Central Commercial District.

This exception does not apply to expansion or change in use of a building or site where such expansion or change in use would result in a reduction in the number of existing off-street parking spaces accessory to the building or site. In addition, this exception does not apply to redevelopment of any site located within the above-described area.

Parking Exception For Places Of Worship. On-site parking facilities required for places of worship may be reduced by not more than fifty percent (50%) where such facilities are located in a non-residential district and within five hundred (500) feet of public or private parking lots having sufficient spaces to make up for the reduction. The use of an off-site public parking lot may only be authorized under the special use permit procedure (see Article V). The use of an off-site private parking lot shall comply with Section 400.255(C)(2)(a) and be subject to the approval of the Zoning Administrator.

Exception For Elderly Housing. The off-street parking requirements for housing marketed and intended for occupancy by elderly persons may be reduced to seventy-five hundredths (0.75) space per dwelling unit, subject to the special use permit procedure (see Article V) or the procedures associated with planned development districts (see Article III, Section 400.115). Approval of such a reduction shall be predicated on reserving an area on the site to accommodate the additional parking that would otherwise be required should conversion to conventional housing occur in the future.

Exception For Change Of Use Of Existing Commercial Buildings:

A reduction in the number of required off-street parking spaces for the reuse of a commercial building, existing prior to the effective date of this Chapter, may be authorized under the special use permit procedure (see Article V), subject to the following conditions:

(1)

The reduction shall not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the off-street parking space requirements for the proposed use;

(2)

No reduction shall be made in the amount of existing available off-street parking spaces on site;

(3)

The proposed use does not involve an expansion of the building that would result in additional parking requirements;

(4)

Notwithstanding compliance with other standards contained in this Article (e.g., setbacks and landscaping), any portion of the site that can be reasonably converted to off-street parking shall be so used to satisfy a portion of the parking requirement; and

(5)

The reduction shall not result in "spill-over" parking on adjacent or nearby properties.

In making its determination, the Plan Commission and City Council shall consider information on the parking demand associated with the proposed use as presented by the applicant and City staff.
