determined by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

number of existing parking spaces, such spaces shall be provided on
the basis of the enlargement or change. Whenever a building or use

2. In any case where the required parking spaces are not located on
the same lot with the building or use served, or where such spaces
are collectively or jointly provided and used, a written agreement
thereby assuring their retention for such purposes shall be properly
drawn and executed by the parties concerned, approved as to form and
execution by the City Attorney and shall be filed with the application
for a building permit.
3. Off-street parking space may be located within the required front
yard of any "C" or "M" District, but no off-street parking shall be
permitted in the required front yard of any "R" District except upon
