[R.O. 2008 §405.450; Ord. No. 4984 §1, 6-10-1991]
A. It
is the intent of these ordinances that all buildings, structures,
and use of land shall provide off-street parking and loading space
in an amount sufficient to meet the needs caused by the building or
use of land and that such parking and loading spaces be so oriented
that they are in fact readily useable for such purpose.
B. Each
use of land, each building or structure hereafter constructed or established,
and each addition to a structure in excess of three hundred (300)
square feet, except as herein provided, shall provide off-street parking
and loading according to the standards set forth herein. When an addition
is made to a building non-conforming as to parking or loading, a conforming
amount of parking shall be supplied based upon the size of the addition.
C. No
addition to an existing building shall be constructed which reduces
the number of spaces, area or usability of existing parking or loading
space unless such building and its addition, conform with the regulations
for parking and loading contained herein. Contractual agreements may
be made between uses which generate parking demand at different times
in such a manner that the requirements of more than one (1) use may
be met by the same space provided the parking demand for each such
use involved is in fact met.
D. All
off-street parking and loading spaces and all drives leading thereto
shall be paved with an asphaltic concrete surface, otherwise referred
to as "hot mix", or portland cement concrete. The Board of Zoning
Adjustment may, after public hearing grant a variance from this requirement
where use of the parking lot will be only intermittent occasions such
as in the case of fair grounds, athletic fields and the like.
E. Uses
listed below shall provide parking and loading in the amounts specified
and at locations specified for the group in which such use falls.
For any use not listed, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall determine
the proper requirement by classifying the proposed use among the uses
specified herein so as to assure equal treatment. In making any such
determination, the Commission shall follow the principles set forth
in the statement of purpose for the parking and loading provisions.
[R.O. 2008 §405.460; Ord. No. 4984 §1, 6-10-1991]
