[Amended 11-14-2018 by Ord. No. O-2018-12]
Parking areas shall be set back from lot lines in compliance with the following:
A. 
Parking areas may be located in any yard space within the General Business District (B-2), Intensive Business District (B-3) and Industrial Districts (LI and HI), and in any yard space but the front yard in the other districts; however, no parking space or area including driveway shall be permitted within five feet of a property line in a side or rear yard and 10 feet of a street right-of-way.
Calculating the number of spaces required shall be in accordance with the following:
A. 
Gross floor area. The term "gross floor area" (GFA) for the purpose of calculating the number of off-street parking spaces required includes the sum of the gross horizontal area of a floor or several floors of a building or structure measured from the exterior face of exterior walls or the centerline of a wall separating two buildings or structures, not including uninhabitable attics or basements, underground parking, uncovered steps or decks, and exterior balconies.
B. 
In churches and other places of public assembly in which patrons or spectators occupy benches, pews, or other similar seating facilities, each 24 inches of such seating shall be counted as one seat for the purpose of this subdivision.
C. 
In cases where parking requirements are based on "capacity" of persons, capacity shall be based on the maximum number of persons that may occupy a place, as determined by the building code. Maximum capacity shall be posted within the establishment. Both indoor and outdoor seating are included in maximum capacity.
D. 
When calculating the number of off-street parking spaces results in a fraction, each fraction of 1/2 or more shall require another space.
E. 
Except in shopping centers or where joint parking requirements have been approved, if a structure or site contains two or more uses, each use shall be calculated separately in determining the total off-street parking spaces required.
F. 
In cases where future potential uses of a building may generate additional parking demand, the Village may require a proof of parking plan for the site showing how the anticipated parking demand will be met. The Village may permit the additional land area that would be required for anticipated parking to be placed in reserve as landscaped open space until needed.
