[Ord. 776, 6/21/1993, § 601; as amended by Ord.
1009, 12/4/2006]
1.
Overall Requirements.
A.
Number of Spaces. Each use that is newly developed, enlarged, significantly changed in type or increased in number of establishments shall provide and maintain off-street parking spaces in accordance with Table 6.1 and the regulations of this Part, except as exempted by § 27-602(6) in the B-C district.
B.
Uses Not Listed. Uses not specifically listed in Table 6.1 shall
comply with the requirements for the most similar use listed in Table
6.1, unless the applicant proves to the satisfaction of the Zoning
officer, after a review by the Planning Commission, that an alternative
standard should be used for that use.
C.
Multiple Uses. Where a proposed lot contains or includes more than one type of use, the number of parking spaces required shall be the sum of the parking requirements for each separate use, except as may be allowed under § 27-601(2), below.
D.
Calculation. Where the calculation of required parking spaces does
not result in a whole number, the calculation shall be rounded to
the closest whole number.
E.
Shared Use. The required parking spaces for any number of separate
uses may be combined through an appropriate long-term mechanism within
a single lot. The required spaces assigned to one use shall not be
assigned to meet the requirements of a second use except:
(2)
That 50% of the required parking spaces for a place of worship,
a theater, a membership club, (not including a restaurant or tavern)
or an auditorium whose public attendance would be at night or on Sundays
may be assigned to a use that will have an insignificant or no parking
demand during such nights or Sundays.
F.
Net Increase. The requirements of this Part shall be based upon the
net increase in parking spaces. If the creation of off-street parking
results in a reduction in the number of legal on-street parking spaces,
then those numbers of reduced parking spaces shall also be required
to be provided, unless the applicant proves to the satisfaction of
the Zoning Hearing Board that those on-street parking spaces were
rarely occupied.
2.
Reduction of Parking Requirements by Special Exception.
A.
Purposes. To minimize impervious surfaces, while ensuring adequate
parking; to recognize unique circumstances may justify a reduction
in parking.
B.
The Zoning Hearing Board may permit a reduction, through the special exception process of § 27-119, of the number of parking spaces required to be developed if the applicant proves to the satisfaction of the Board that less parking spaces are needed.
(1)
Proof. To prove that less parking spaces are needed, the applicant
shall provide existing and projected employment, customer, resident
or other relevant data. Such data may include a study of parking at
similar developments during peak periods of use.
(2)
Shared Parking. Under this section, an applicant may seek to
prove that parking permanently shared with another use or another
lot with shared internal access or another lot within 250 feet of
the entrance to the use will reduce the total amount of parking needed
because the uses have different peak times of parking need or overlapping
customers.
(3)
Reservation of Future Parking Areas. If a reduction is permitted
under this section, the Board may require as a condition of the special
exception that the lot include the reservation, permanently or for
a specified number of years, of areas for use if needed in the future
for additional parking.
(a)
Such reservation shall be provided in a legal form acceptable
to the Zoning Hearing Board Solicitor. A legally binding deed restriction
is recommended.
(b)
In such case, the applicant shall be required to submit site
plans to the Zoning Officer showing where and how the additional parking
could be accomplished. Such future parking areas shall be designed
to meet all Borough requirements, including stormwater runoff. Such
future parking areas shall not be covered by buildings and shall be
attractively landscaped unless needed for parking.
(c)
Such additional parking shall be required to be provided within
one year by the owner of the lot at that time after the Zoning officer
may determine in writing to such owner that such parking has become
needed to meet actual use. Such determination shall be based upon
the Zoning Officer's on-site review on at least three different
days.

1.
General. Parking spaces and accessways shall be laid out to result
in safe and orderly use, and to fully take into account all of the

facilities. No parking area shall cause a safety hazard or impediment
to traffic off the lot.
2.
Existing Parking. Structures and uses in existence at the effective
date of this chapter shall not be required to add additional parking
spaces to meet the requirements of this Part unless: (A) the general
type of use is significantly changed; or, (B) the use is expanded
a total aggregate over time of more than 5% or 2,000 square feet in
floor area, which ever is more restrictive. Any parking spaces serving
such pre-existing structures or uses at the time of adoption of this
chapter shall not in the future be reduced in number below the number
required by this chapter.
3.
Expansion of Use. If a existing building or use does not currently
conform to the off-street parking or loading requirements of this
chapter, then additional parking and/or loading facilities shall only
be required for any expansion of the use or building, except:
4.
Continuing Obligation of Parking and Loading Spaces. All required
numbers of parking spaces and off-street loading spaces shall be available
as long as the use or building which the spaces serve still exist,
and such spaces shall not be reduced in number below the minimum required
by this chapter. No required parking area or off-street loading spaces
shall be used for any other use (such as storage or display of materials)
that interferes with the area's availability for parking to serve
a use, except that an owner of a parking area may allow use of the
spaces by another use during specific times of the day and week when
they are clearly not needed for the primary user.
5.
Location of Parking. Required off-street parking spaces shall be on the same lot or abutting lot with the principal use served, unless the applicant proves to the satisfaction of the Zoning Officer that a guaranteed long-term method of providing the spaces is available using area of a lot within 500 feet (except as provided in subsection (6), below) of the entrance of the principal use being served. Such method may involve a deed restriction allowing using of the spaces during peak hours of need, or a lease extending 20 years or for the life of use of the property, whichever is of shorter duration.
6.
Downtown Parking Exemption.
A.
In recognition the need to strongly encourage new construction and the reuse of building space in the downtown, and recognizing the availability of on-street parking areas, the requirements in § 27-601 for minimum numbers of off-street parking spaces in this Part shall not apply within the B-C district, except for:
B.
In any case, existing parking in the B-C district shall not be reduced
below a minimum equal to one space per 1.3 employee.
7.
Fees-in-Lieu of Parking. As a conditional use, the Borough Council
may permit all or part of the parking required in the B-C or R-HO
district to be waived if the applicant agrees to provides a fee-in-lieu
of parking. Such fees shall be accounted for separately and shall
only be used for acquisition and/or development of municipal vehicle
parking areas. Such one-time fee shall be $900 per parking space,
unless such fee is modified by future resolution of Borough Council.

a single-family detached dwelling, twin dwelling or for approved "valet"
parking areas.
C.
Parking areas shall not be within any of the following: a required
buffer yard or a required paved area setback.
D.
Defined Traffic Ways. All parking areas shall include clearly defined
and marked traffic patterns. In any lot with more than 30 off-street
parking spaces, raised curbs and landscaped areas shall be used to
direct traffic within the lot. Major vehicular routes shall be separated
as much as is reasonable from major pedestrian routes within the lot.
E.
Separation from Street. All areas for off-street parking, off-street loading and unloading and the storage or movement of motor vehicles shall be physically separated from the street by a raised curb, planting strip, wall or other suitable barrier against unchanneled motor vehicle entrance or exit, except for necessary and approved vehicle entrances and exits to the lot. All commercial and industrial parking areas approved after the adoption of this chapter shall be separated from the street by a grass or landscaped strip of land. See § 27-603(7).
F.
Stacking. Each lot shall provide adequate area upon the lot to prevent
back-up of vehicles on a public street while awaiting entry to the
lot, or while waiting for service at a drive-through facility.

to the Borough Engineer and prove to the satisfaction of the Borough
Engineer that stormwater will be adequately managed.
2.
Size and Marking of Parking Spaces.
A.
Each parking space shall include a rectangle with a minimum width
of nine feet and a minimum length of 18 feet, except:

provided, that those spaces are marked as "Compact Cars Only" and
provided that those spaces do not include the most desirable spaces
in the lot or deck.
(3)
If a parking area is permitted to not be paved, then a minimum
width of 10 feet per space shall be used.
(4)
If parking spaces serve a use involving more than 10,000 square
feet of floor area for the retail sale of groceries, then such parking
spaces shall have a minimum width of 10 feet to allow for shopping
carts.
B.
All spaces shall be marked to indicate their location, except those
of a single-family or two-family dwelling.

Separation Between Driveways. At least 50 feet shall be provided
between the center lines of any two accessways or driveways along
one street within one lot.
D.
Separation from Intersection. If a driveway or accessway enters onto
a collector or arterial street, then the center line of that driveway
or accessway where it enters the collector or arterial street shall
be a minimum of 75 feet from the center line of any other street,
where that street enters the collector or arterial street at a different
point than the driveway or accessway.

7.
Paved Area Landscaping.
A.
Purpose. To ensure that parked or moving vehicles within a lot do
not obstruct sight distance or interfere with pedestrian traffic,
to aid in stormwater management along streets and to prevent vehicles
from entering or exiting a lot other than at approved driveways.
C.
The requirements of § 22-516 of the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance [Chapter 22] regarding landscaping around any new or expanded parking area shall apply to any such use established or expanded after the adoption of this chapter, regardless of whether such parking area would otherwise be regulated by the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance [Chapter 22].
D.
Any tractor-trailer truck loading area or any parking lot of six
or more spaces outside of a building shall be screened from any abutting
residential lot line by a solid wood fence, decorative masonry wall
or evergreen landscaping with a minimum height of four feet. Such
screen shall be designed and located to reduce the visibility of the
use from the residential lot line and prevent headlight glare into
an existing or future home.
8.
Handicapped Parking.
