City of Roseville, CA Chapter 19.26 OFF-STREET PARKING AND LOADING

§ 19.26.010 Purpose.

The requirements for off-street parking established by this chapter are intended to minimize traffic congestion and hazards to motorists and pedestrians, to provide safe, attractive, and convenient off-street parking facilities with vehicular access to all land uses, to provide off-street parking in proportion to the needs generated by varying land uses, to ensure access to projects by emergency response vehicles, and to ensure that parking areas are compatible with the surrounding land uses.

(Ord. 5428 § 1, 2014)

§ 19.26.020 General off-street parking requirement.

All approved land uses shall be designed and developed to provide the number of off-street parking spaces required by Section 19.26.030 (Parking space requirements by use type), and designed as required by Section 19.26.040 (Design and improvement of parking).

A. Accessible Parking. Parking lots shall include the number of accessible parking spaces as required by Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations. Accessible spaces count toward the total number of parking spaces required by Section 19.26.030. Accessible parking spaces shall be designed as provided in Section 19.26.040(A)(1)(a).

B. Company Vehicles. In addition to the number of off-street parking spaces required by Section 19.26.030 (Parking space requirements by use type), nonresidential uses shall provide one parking space for each company vehicle that is parked on the site during normal business hours. These spaces may be located within a building.

C. Bicycle Spaces. Bicycle parking, at a minimum, shall be provided to comply with the California Building Code. Any bicycle space required as part of the Transportation System Management Plan can be counted to fulfill the requirements of this section.

D. Clean Air Vehicle and Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station Parking. Parking lots shall include the number of clean air parking spaces and EV charging station spaces as required by Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations. Such spaces shall count towards the total number of parking spaces required by Section 19.26.030.

E. Accessibility and Usability. All required off-street parking spaces shall be designed, located, constructed and maintained so as to be fully and independently usable and accessible at all times. The usability of required parking spaces shall be maintained as follows:

1. Required off-street parking spaces shall not be used for any purpose that at any time would prevent vehicles from parking in required parking spaces, except as permitted by Chapter 19.64 (Temporary Uses).

2. Driveways shall not be used for any purpose that would prevent vehicle access to parking spaces, or inhibit circulation or emergency service response.

3. All required parking spaces must be available for use by tenants, customers and visitors to the site at all times. Parking spaces shall not be reserved for an individual tenant or customer, or be reserved for a limited period of time.

4. When park and ride spaces are provided, such spaces may be counted towards the required parking for the project site provided the peak use of the project does not coincide with the park and ride reserved hours. Typically park and ride spaces are reserved for park and ride uses Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

1. Uses Not Listed. The number of parking spaces required for uses not specifically listed in subsection A shall be determined by the Planning Manager based on common functional, product or compatibility characteristics and activities, as provided for in Section 19.08.050 (Classification of uses not specifically listed).

2. New Buildings or Development Projects Without Known Tenants. If the type of tenants that will occupy a non-residential building are not known at the time of the development entitlement or building permit approval, the amount of parking to be provided shall be:

The minimum number of parking spaces required by subsection A for any land use allowed on the site by the applicable zoning, provided that the Planning Manager determines the proposed building as designed can reasonably accommodate such use, and provided further a zoning clearance certification is obtained to authorize the use.

3. Mixed Use Projects. Where a project contains more than one major use classification (such as a residential and a commercial use), the amount of parking to be provided shall be the total of that required for each use, except as otherwise provided by subsection C (Adjustment to Number of Required Parking Spaces).

4. Tenant Spaces with Multiple Functions. When a tenant has several functions, such as sales and office, the amount of parking to be provided for the tenant shall be calculated as specified by subsection A for the primary use, using the gross floor area of the tenant space.

5. Tenant Spaces with Accessory Storage. When a tenant has enclosed accessory storage in excess of 2,000 square feet, the required parking for that portion of the tenant space dedicated to storage shall be calculated as specified by subsection (A)(5) for warehousing which is one parking space per 1,000 square feet of warehousing.

Where parking is provided on multiple parcels, reciprocal parking and access agreements shall be recorded to provide equal use and access to parking for all users within the commercial center or building complex.

9. Professional Office Uses. Professional office projects shall calculate parking based on the net leasable square footage of the proposed office building(s). Net square footage shall be 90 percent of the total square footage of the proposed building(s). The net square footage shall be determined at original building shell approval and subsequent tenant improvements shall not be granted any additional reduction for net square footage.

C. Adjustment to Number of Required Parking Spaces. The number of parking spaces required by subsection A may be reduced as follows:

1. Specific Plan Provisions. Provisions may be made in a specific plan to allow reductions in the number of required parking spaces based upon special provisions, such as providing golf cart or electric car parking where special provisions are made for golf carts or electric cars.

Parking Reductions for Shared Parking. If an applicant believes the number of parking spaces required for their building complex as specified in subsection A (which is the sum of all the users within the building complex) is not applicable because the hours of operation of different tenants/uses within the building complex will effectively allow for dual use of the parking spaces then the applicant may request an Administrative Permit. The Approving Authority shall be the Planning Manager. The applicant shall have the burden of proof for requesting a reduction in the total number of required off-street parking spaces, and documentation shall be submitted substantiating this request. Shared parking reductions shall only be approved by the Approving Authority if:

a. A sufficient number of spaces are provided to meet the greatest parking demand of the participating uses;

b. Satisfactory evidence is provided describing the nature of the uses and the times when the uses operate so as to demonstrate the lack of potential conflict between them;

c. Overflow parking will not impact any adjacent use; and

d. Additional documents, covenants, deed restrictions, or other agreements as may be deemed necessary by the Planning Manager are executed to assure that the required parking spaces provided are maintained and uses with similar hours and parking requirements as those uses sharing the parking facilities remain for the life of the project.

2. Parking Reductions for an Individual Use. If an applicant for a proposed use believes the number of parking spaces required for their use as specified in subsection A is not applicable because their use functions differently than the generic use type and associated parking standards established in this title, then the applicant may request an Administrative Permit. The Approving Authority shall be the Planning Manager. The applicant shall have the burden of proof for requesting a reduction in the total number of required off-street parking spaces, and documentation shall be submitted substantiating the request. Such documentation may include, but is not limited to: a parking study of another facility of the same use which is similar in size and operation, calculating the required parking spaces with field data of peak parking usage. Reduced parking shall only be approved by the Approving Authority if:

a. Satisfactory evidence is provided describing the nature of the use, the operation and data from other facilities or similar facilities so as to demonstrate that the required parking standards are excessive and the proposed parking standards are appropriate; and

b. Overflow parking will not impact any adjacent use.

3. Parking Reductions for Eating and Drinking Establishments. The Approving Authority for any application for a parking reduction by an eating and drinking establishment as The required development plans for a major project shall consist of three defined in Section 19.08.090(L) shall be the Planning Manager. The Planning Commission shall be the Approving Authority for any application requesting a parking reduction where the request would result in a cumulative parking reduction of 15% or more for the center in which the eating and drinking establishment is located.

D. Downtown/Old Town Parking Requirements. All principally permitted uses within the historic district (HD) and central business district (CBD) zone districts, with the exception of community assembly, colleges and universities, and new uses requiring and discretionary permit shall be permitted in the HD and CBD zone districts without the need to provide additional off-street parking.

Community assembly, college and university uses and new uses which require a discretionary permit, shall comply with the parking standards specified in subsection A, or request approval of a parking reduction or variance from the parking standards.

§ 19.26.040 Design and improvement of parking.

Parking spaces and areas shall be designed in accordance with this section.

A. Parking Lot and Parking Space Design and Layout. Except where otherwise provided by Section 19.26.030(C) (Adjustment to Number of Required Parking Spaces), parking spaces shall be designed as follows:

1. Parking Space Design. Except as provided below, all parking spaces shall be standard spaces, designed to accommodate full-sized passenger vehicles.

a. Parking Space Sizes. Standard spaces shall be a minimum of nine feet by 18 feet; compact car spaces shall be a minimum of nine feet by 16 feet; and parallel parking spaces shall be a minimum of 10 feet wide by 22 feet long. Accessible spaces shall be a minimum of nine feet by 18 feet with a five-foot loading area; an accessible van space shall be a minimum of nine feet by 18 feet with an eight-foot loading area.

b. Compact Car Space Substitution. Parking lots with a minimum of 20 parking spaces may substitute standard spaces with compact spaces for up to 30 percent of the total parking spaces required. Each compact space shall be labeled “COMPACT” or “C.”

c. Motorcycle Space Substitution. Parking lots with a minimum of 40 parking spaces may substitute standard parking spaces with motorcycle spaces. One standard parking space may be replaced with a motorcycle space for each 40 required standard parking spaces. Motorcycle spaces shall be a minimum size of three by six feet.

d. Bicycle Space Sizes. Each bicycle space shall be a minimum of two feet by six feet to prevent encroachment into any walkway, parking space, landscape area or similar.

2. Parking Lot Design. The design and layout of parking lots shall conform to the following standards:

a. Circulation Aisle Width with Parking. The minimum width of a two-way drive aisle providing access to parking spaces shall be 24 feet. The minimum width of a one-way drive aisle providing access to parking spaces shall be as follows:

ANGLE	AISLE WIDTH
90°	24′
60°	18′
45°	14′
PARALLEL	12′

Other parking designs utilizing other parking angles may be approved upon securing an Administrative Permit.

b. Circulation Aisle Width Without Parking. The minimum width of a two-way drive aisle with no parking on either side of the drive aisle is 20 feet. The minimum width of a one-way drive aisle with no parking on either side of the drive aisle is 12 feet.

c. Circulation Aisle for Emergency Access. The minimum width of a drive aisle needed for an emergency response vehicle shall be 20 feet.

d. Vehicular Overhang. Vehicular overhang is permitted, provided no vehicle shall overhang into a sidewalk which would reduce the unencumbered width of a sidewalk to less than four feet. A vehicle is permitted to overhang into a landscaped area by two feet, provided that the required landscaped area is extended by two feet.

e. Perimeter Landscaping. Where a parking lot is adjacent to a public right-of-way, a landscape planter shall be established and continuously maintained between the public right-of-way and the parking lot. The minimum width of the landscape planter shall be determined by the design guidelines or the applicable specific plan landscape guidelines. In addition, all unused right-of-way between the public street and the parking lot shall be landscaped and maintained by the property owner.

f. Bicycle Racks and Lockers. When bicycle spaces are required, a bicycle rack or locker shall be installed. The bicycle rack shall be designed to allow a bicycle to be secured to the rack. The location of the bicycle rack or locker shall not encroach into the sidewalk which would reduce the unencumbered width of the sidewalk to less than four feet and shall provide adequate clearance surrounding the rack or locker such that bicycles shall not encroach into any walkway, parking space, landscape area or similar.

g. Curb Stops. A permanent curb, bumper, wheel stop or similar device at least six inches in height shall be installed adjacent to sidewalks, planters and other landscaping areas, parking lot fixtures and buildings and walls to protect these improvements from vehicular damage. The stopping edge of such protected bumper shall be placed no closer than two feet from the above noted improvement.

h. Parking Space Design. All parking spaces shall be delineated and separated by a painted divider (double stripe) as shown on the typical stall illustration below. The stripes shall be a four-inch solid line painted either white or yellow in color. The use of graphics or text in or around the striping is prohibited. The striping shall be maintained in a clear and visible manner.

However, existing parking areas with single striping, which require additional parking spaces or modified parking spaces due to building expansion, parking lot restriping or reconfiguration may maintain the single striping upon securing an Administrative Permit.

B. Controlled Access Required. All parking spaces (including garage spaces) required for any land use other than a single-family or two-family dwelling shall be designed and located to provide for vehicle maneuvering on the site so that vehicles will enter any adjacent public right-of-way or private road in a forward direction.

Parking spaces may be located as needed on a site, provided that no required parking space shall be located within a front or street side setback required by Article II (Regulations for the Principal and Special Purpose Zones) except as provided in Chapter 19.60 (Accessory Dwelling Units), or other use types (community care facility, congregate residence and rooming and boarding house) according to Section 19.26.030. A driveway providing access to a street may be located within a front or street side setback.

D. Surfacing of Parking Areas. Required parking and circulation areas shall be surfaced with asphalt concrete or Portland cement concrete, or other approved all-weather, hard, non-eroding surface. It shall be the responsibility of the property owner to insure that the surface is maintained free from significant cracks or holes.

E. Specialized Parking and Circulation. The standards of this subsection apply to the design and construction of specialized parking and on-site circulation facilities. Additional information regarding stacking capacity for drive through facilities and other types of uses with stacking, are contained in the community design guidelines.

1. Drive-Through Facilities. The following requirements apply to any use with drive-through facilities:

a. Separation and Marking of Lanes. Drive-through aisles shall be a minimum of 12 feet wide and shall be separated from other circulation aisles necessary for ingress or egress, or aisles providing access to any parking space.
