[Ord. 672]
(a) 
Location of Parking Facilities. Required parking facilities as specified in this section shall be located:
(1) 
On the same lot or parcel of land as the use such parking facilities are intended to serve; or
(2) 
On a lot or parcel of land held under joint ownership provided such parking facilities are located adjoining the use or uses served.
(3) 
On a lot or parcel of land separated only by an alley or street from the lot or parcel of land on which the use or uses served are located provided:
(i) 
That said lots or parcels of land are in the same or joint ownership and separated only by an alley or street; and
(ii) 
That said lots or parcels of land would be contiguous, if not separated by said alley or street, for a distance of not more than 40 feet; and
(iii) 
That such parking facilities are in close proximity to the actual use or uses served.
(b) 
Loading Facilities. Required loading facilities shall be located on the same lot or parcel of land as the use served.
(c) 
Ingress and Egress. Required parking and loading facilities shall be provided with easily accessible and adequate ingress and egress from and to a street or alley as provided in this article.

(1) 
Land within the right-of-way of a proposed street, or within the planned ultimate right-of-way on a street proposed to be widened, shall not be used to provide required parking or loading facilities.
(2) 
Where vehicular access to a garage, carport, or automobile storage space on the same lot or parcel of land as the residential structure to which said parking facility would be accessory, is not possible from any street or alley due to topographical or other conditions, or is so difficult to achieve that to require such access is unreasonable in the opinion of the Commission, such garage, carport or automobile storage space is not required if alternate parking facilities, approved by the Commission, are provided.
(3) 
Required parking or loading facilities may not be reduced or encroached upon, except on approval by the Commission under the following circumstances:
(i) 
Required parking and loading areas may be reduced by the amount to which an equivalent space, similarly situated and subject to the same or current standards, conditions and limitations, is provided for the use to which said facilities are appurtenant.
(ii) 
Where the floor area of a building is reduced, the area devoted to require parking and loading facilities based on the floor area of said building may be proportionally reduced.
[Ord. 672]
(a) 
For Uses on Separate Lots or Parcels of Land. Required parking facilities may be provided collectively for two or more buildings or uses located on separate lots or parcels of land, provided that the total area of such facilities does not equal less than the combined requirements for the individual uses.
(b) 
For Uses with Varying Requirements Located on the Same Lot or Parcel of Land.
(1) 
In the event that uses having varying parking and loading requirements are located on the same lot or parcel of land, the facilities provided, including collective parking facilities, shall equal the sum total of the requirements for the various individual uses computed separately in accordance with provisions in this article.
(2) 
Parking and loading facilities designated for one use may not be counted or considered as also providing required parking or loading facilities for any other use.
[Ord. 672]
Property on which required parking is established, shall be under the same ownership as the use it is intended to serve. Any joint ownership or operation resulting from the establishment of collective parking facilities as provided in § 9-7.602 (Combined Parking or Loading Facilities), shall be construed as complying with this provision.
