§ 17.52.060 Reductions in Parking.

Reductions through Site Plan and Design Review. Commercial, office, or industrial project may request a reduction in the minimum number of parking spaces required, provided they include facilities, programs, or services that reduce the overall parking demand for the site, contingent upon approval from the Approving Authority.

Facilities and Programs. A proponent of an office, commercial, or industrial project may provide alternative facilities or programs which serve to reduce parking demand in return for a reduction in vehicle parking requirements. Vehicle parking requirements may be reduced in accordance with the following provisions:

Shower/Locker Facilities. Developments with 100 or more employees may reduce their parking requirement by providing shower and clothing locker facilities for bicycle commuting employees. Maximum reduction: 2 percent of required parking.

Secure Bicycle Parking. Developments which provide additional secure bicycle parking facilities over and above the minimum requirement may reduce their parking requirement by one vehicle space for every three additional bicycle spaces provided. Maximum reduction: 2 percent of required parking.

Preferred Carpool/Vanpool Parking Spaces. Office or industrial developments which guarantee preferred parking spaces (e.g., covered, shaded, or near building entrance) to employees who participate regularly in a carpool or van-pool may reduce their parking requirement by one vehicle space for every one space which is marked and reserved for carpools/vanpools at a preferred location. Maximum reduction: 2 percent of required parking.

Special Circumstances. Off-street vehicle parking reductions may also be granted when the applicant for a single or combined use can prove to the designated Approving Authority that the nature of the proposed use(s) or the proximity of the facility to alternative modes of transportation justify the requested parking reduction. This Chapter includes shared parking reductions due to variation in peak demands.

Vehicle Park-and-Ride Lot Requirements at Shopping Centers. Up to 10 percent of the required number of parking spaces for retail stores/shopping centers may be contractually committed to be used for park-and-ride purposes without affecting the total parking requirement of the center, provided that the contracted spaces meet applicable current parking lot design standards and that the center meets or exceeds its calculated parking requirement.

Reductions Through Joint Use of Parking Facilities

Requirements for the provision of parking facilities, with respect to two or more establishments on the same or different sites may be satisfied by the permanent allocation of the requisite number of spaces for each use in a common parking facility, located not farther than 300 feet measured along the shortest available route of pedestrian access from the site of any such participating use.

When off-street parking facilities are provided in compliance with the requirements of this Chapter on a site other than the site on which the use to be served, an indenture shall be recorded in the office of the County Recorder designating the off-street parking facility and the use to be served, with legal descriptions of all sites involved, and certifying that the off-street parking facility shall not be used for any other purpose unless the restriction is removed by resolution of the City Council. An attested copy of the recorded indenture shall be filed with the Public Works Director. Upon submission of satisfactory evidence that other off-street parking facilities have been provided in compliance with the requirements of this Chapter or that the use has ceased or has been altered so as no longer to require the off-street parking facility, the City Council shall by resolution remove the restriction.

Shared Parking. The Approving Authority may approve a reduction in the number of required parking spaces for a mixed use development or for uses which are located near one another and which have different peak parking demands and operating hours. Shared parking arrangements shall be subject to the following requirements.

Application. An application for shared parking shall include a description of the use, a development plan complying with the requirements of Section 17.08.020, a trip generation report, and a parking study and other information deemed necessary by the Planning Manager.

Location. All shared parking shall be located in an area providing reasonable accessibility to all uses which it is intended to serve.

Agreements. In cases where the uses for which shared parking is requested are located on lots under different ownership, proof of a long-term lease agreement shall be required and shall be subject to review by the City Attorney.

Standards. In determining whether to approve a reduction for shared parking, the following shall be considered:

Characteristics of each use and projected peak parking demand, including hours of operation;

Potential reductions in vehicle movements afforded by multi-purpose use of spaces by employees, customers or residents; and

Potential improvements in access, design, open space preservation and circulation.
