assessment attributable to such district lot divided by the actual
cost of each parking space therein; such cost to be determined by
the City Engineer upon the request of the City Planner. Such credit,
when so established, is and remains appurtenant to, and nonservable
from, the particular property to which it relates, and no severed
scale or transfer thereof shall be recognized by the City.
(B)
Parking required in the C-B Zone must be met off-site or through

attendants to be present during the various hours of business operations.
(B)
The lot is a hillside property and a downhill lot located within
a gated community, with a building pad area less than 4,000 square
