In achieving these purposes this chapter interacts with the requirements of Chapter 18.48. The design of off-street parking shall primarily be the responsibility of the developer and shall consider traffic circulation, intended landscaping, pedestrian access and circulation, and other purposes of this title. A. Floor Area 1. The term "floor area," for the purpose of calculating the number of off-street parking spaces required, shall mean 85 percent of the gross floor area, as defined in Chapter 18.80. However, at the election of the property owner, floor area shall mean the gross floor area, as defined in Chapter 18.80, minus the following: a. Window display areas; b. Storage areas; c. Areas used for incidental repair of equipment used or sold on the premises; d. Areas occupied by toilets and restrooms or breakrooms; e. Areas occupied by public utility facilities; f. Areas occupied by dressing, fitting, or alteration rooms, incidental to the sale of clothing; g. Areas occupied by stairways and elevators; and h. Corridors connecting rooms or suites of rooms. Such election shall be made in writing to the Planning Director, shall be signed and acknowledged by the owner, and shall be filed with the Planning Director prior to the issuance of a building permit for such building. The owner shall also be responsible for certifying other information upon which parking requirements may be based, such as seats and the number of employees on maximum working shift. XVIII-46 p1 10/2005 -..-,-..----".. 2. Where applicable, the number of spaces required in S 18.46.040 of this chapter will be the total of the spaces required for the component activities of certain uses, each calculated separately. B. Change of Use or Occupancy of Buildings. With any change of use or occupancy of any building or buildings, including additions to buildings, that may require more parking, an occupancy permit is required and shall not be issued until such additional parking spaces, as required by this title, are provided for. C. Improvement Schedule. All parking area improvements, to include surfacing, drainage, walkways, lighting, landscaping, screening, traffic control, etc., shall be installed according to the provisions of Chapter 18.74. D. Stacking of Off-Street Parking Spaces. Required parking spaces shall be located so as to preclude stacking of off-street parking spaces, with the exception of single household dwellings and individual townhouse units and duplexes with physically separated individual driveways. Physical separation is provided when at least one of these option is provided: individual garage doors for each interior parking space, a vegetated planter not less than four feet in width between the parking spaces in the driveway area, or a wall not less than four feet in height and length is provided between the parking area in the driveway and dividing the garage entrance. Generally, not more than two cars may be stacked. E. No Parking Permitted in Required Front or Side Yards. Required parking spaces shall not be located in any required front or side yard, except that detached single household dwellings and townhouses, and duplexes with physically separated individual driveways, may have one space located within a driveway area in the required front yard for each parking space located directly in front of the driveway area and outside of the required front yard. F. Parking is permitted within required rear yards. (Ord. 1645 S 1, 2005) 18.46.020 Stall, Aisle, and Driveway Design A. Parking Dimensions.

Stal/length variations are subject to approval by the City Engineer. 3 For 90-degree parking, aisles are two-way; XVIII-46 p2 10/2005 4 First number refers to one-way traffic and the second number to two-way traffic. If the aisle is needed as a fire lane, a 20- foot minimum is required. 5 Unless otherwise approved, all parking spaces shall be of standard width and length. In any parking facility containing 20 or more parking spaces, a maximum of 25 percent of the provided parking spaces may be reduced in size for small cars, provided these spaces shal/ be clearly identified with a sign permanently affixed immediately in front of each space containing the notation, "Compacts Only." Where feasible, aI/ smal/ car spaces shal/ be located in one or more contiguous areas and/or adjacent to ingress egress points within parking facilities. Location of compact car parking spaces shall not create traffic congestion or impede traffic flows. 6The first disabled accessible parking stal/ shall meet the standards of ~ 18.46. 040. D.2.a. B. Within Structures. The off-street parking requirements may be furnished by providing spaces so designated within the principal building or accessory parking structure. However, no building permit shall be used to convert the parking structures into a dwelling unit or living area or other activity until other adequate provisions are made to comply with the required off-street parking provisions of this title. C. Circulation Between Bays. Except in the case of one- to three~household dwellings and individual townhouse units, parking areas shall be designed so that circulation between parking bays occurs within the designated parking lot and does not depend upon a public street or alley. Turning radii between bays and additional backup length for dead end aisles shall conform with requirements of the Uniform Fire Code. D. Backing into Public Right-of-Ways. Except in the case of one- to three-household dwellings and individual townhouse or condominium units, parking area design which requires backing into the public street is prohibited.

Parking Lot Curbing 1. Except for individual townhouse units and one~ to threewhousehold dwellings, all open off-street parking areas and driveways shall have a 6winch by 6winch perimeter concrete curb around the entire parking lot, including driving access ways. Continuous concrete curbing shall be built according to standards provided by the City Engineer. 2. Concrete pindown wheel stops may be permitted as an alternative to continuous concrete curbing in front of parking spaces which front on the perimeter of the parking lot. However, continuous concrete curbing as described above shall be provided in all situations where deemed necessary by the City Engineer to control drainage and soil erosion. 3. Alternative perimeter treatment may be permitted adjacent to snow storage areas sUbject to the approval of the City Engineer. 4. Requirements for perimeter curbing shall not preclude opportunities for shared access between adjacent parking lots. K. Protruding Vehicles. All onsite parking stalls which abut property lines shall be designed and constructed such that parked vehicles shall not protrude over property lines. L. Pedestrian Facilities in Parking Lots. Concrete sidewalks a minimum of 3 feet in width shall be provided between any existing or proposed building and adjacent parking lot. Where sidewalk curbs serve as wheel stops, an additional 2 feet of sidewalk width is required. M. Snow Removal Storage Areas.

One parking space for each 24 uninterrupted linear feet of available street frontage usable for on-street parking directly adjacent to a lot may be deducted from the total parking spaces required for a development. The number of on-street spaces calculated shall not exceed the number of dwellings on the lot. The width of drive accesses, designated non-parking areas, vision triangles, and similar circumstances shall not be considered to be available for the purpose of on-street parking space. 2. Adjustments to Minimum Requirements XVIII-46 p5 10/2005 a. Affordable Housing. When calculating the amount of required parking for affordable housing, as defined in Chapter 18.80, if the project is guaranteed for use as affordable housing for a minimum period of 20 years and the use as affordable housing is subject to long term monitoring to ensure compliance and continued use as affordable housing. Required parking spaces shall be calculated based on number of bedrooms outlined in Table 46-2, but shall not exceed 2 spaces per unit. b. Residential Uses in Mixed-use Projects. In order to utilize this section, the long term availability of the nonresidential parking spaces upon which the use of this section was based shall be assured to the residents of the project. For the purposes of this section, residential parking shall be calculated as if on-street parking were available for all dwellings. The use of this section does not preclude the use of other sections of this title which may have the effect of reducing the required amount of parking. When calculating the amount of required parking for residential uses within a mixed-use project the amount of parking may be reduced subject to one of the following provisions: (1) A reduction of not more than 50 percent of the required number of spaces for residential uses may be taken, provided that the number of spaces which are reduced do not exceed 30 percent of the total spaces provided for the total project uses. Not withstanding the provisions of this subsection a minimum of 0.75 parking space per dwelling unit shall be provided; or (2) If the nonresidential portions of the project provide 300 percent or more of the number of off-street parking spaces required by the residential units, then the number of off-street parking spaces required per residential unit shall be zero, provided that the occupants of the residential units are permitted use of the provided nonresidential parking spaces. B. Nonresidential Uses 1. Minimum Requirements. The number of spaces shown in table 46.3 shall be provided. In addition to the number of spaces required from table 46-3, the required number of disabled parking stalls required by table 46-6 shall also be provided.

Adjustments to Minimum Requirements. To implement the City's adopted growth policy, adjustment of parking requirements within certain areas of the City is desired. Use of this section shall not be considered as joint use of parking or off-site parking regulated by SS 18.46.050 and 18.46.060, nor shall the use of this section preclude the use of other sections of this title which may have the effect of reducing the required amount of on~site parking. a. Neighborhood Commercial. Within zoning districts implementing a Neighborhood Commercial growth policy designation or the B-3 zoning district, the parking requirements for non-residential uses may be reduced. Table 46-4 Use Maximum Allowable Reduction Retail 20 percent Restaurant 25 percent Office 10 percent All Others 15 percent Transit An additional 5 percent reduction may be taken in circumstances where the development is within Availability 400 feet of a developed and serviced transit stop. b. Community Commercial. Within zoning districts lying within a commercial node, as defined in Chapter 18.80, and implementing a Community Commercial growth policy designation, the parking requirements for nonresidential uses may be reduced. Table 46-5 Use Maximum Allowable Reduction Retail 10 percent Restaurant 20 percent Office 10 percent All Others 10 percent Transit An additional 5 percent reduction may be taken in circumstances where the development is within Availability 400 feet of a developed and serviced transit stop. XVIII-46 p9 10/2005 C. Exceptions to These Parking Requirements. Because some situations (i.e., existing lots which have no landscaping, irregular lots, lots with topographic difficulties, etc.) would benefit from an alternative to the required maximum parking areas; because the community's appearance could benefit from additional landscaping, streetscaping and sculptural elements; and because parking exceptions and/or landscaping would encourage development within existing City boundaries; the following alternatives maybe permitted. These alternatives may be proposed by the developer for review by the ADR staff. Such proposals may be approved based on a determination that such alternatives meet the following requirements and will not create a congested on-street parking situation in the vicinity of the proposal. 1- Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District. Except in the B-3 district, parking requirements in neighborhood conservation overlay districts will be governed by Chapter 18.28. Generally, parking and access drives should not have an adverse effect on any existing elements which contribute to the character of the neighborhoods. Common driveways, single car garages, and landscaped yards and boulevards may be some of the important elements to retain. The procedures outlined in Chapter 18.28 may be used to define all parking requirements. 2. Landscaping in Lieu of Parking. Except in the B-3 district, property owners have the option of requesting the deletion of up to 5 required spaces or 10 percent of the required parking spaces, whichever is less, if 350 square feet of landscaping, trees, or streetscaping is installed on the property for each space so deleted. This shall not decrease the amount of landscaping that would have been required with full parking but shall be in addition to such landscaping. This option shall be approved by the ADR staff. These improvements must be placed in the public right-of-way or yards directly facing the right-of-way. 3. Exceptions and Modifications to Parking Requirements in Bw3 District. Where all or part of the required parking spaces can not be provided for a proposed use in the 8w3 District, either through ownership or lease of the necessary land, the petitioner may satisfy the parking requirements by providing an equivalent cash-in-Iieu payment according to the fOllowing provisions: a. No building permit shall be issued, nor shall any use of property be initiated, unless a satisfactory cash-inwlieu payment is received by the Department of Finance; b. The Parking Commission shall review and consider all requests for cash-in-lieu payments and furnish a written and dated certificate, signed by the Parking Commission Chairman, authorizing cashwin-Iieu payments. A copy of this certificate shall be presented to the Chief Building Official and Planning Director before a building permit is issued or the use instituted; c. For each required parking space not provided, an appropriate payment shall be made to the City Finance Director as specified by City Commission resolution; d. All funds received under the provisions of this chapter shall be deposited in an interest bearing account and, unless otherwise directed by the City Commission, shall be used for the acquisition of additional parking facilities and for the renovation and resurfacing of same; XVlllw46 p10 10/2005 e. The cash-in-lieu fee may be revised, at the discretion of the City Commission, upon the recommendation of the Parking Commission, to reflect changing market values; and f. All real property assessed by special improvement district (SID) No. 565 or other similarly adopted improvement districts, designed to provide additional parking spaces within the Bw3 district, shall not be required to provide additional parking spaces beyond those required at the time of the SID adoption, provided the use of the real property and improvements remains unchanged from the initial assessments of SID No. 565 or other similarly adopted improvement districts; (1) In the event that a new use or an expansion is initiated on any portion of real property or improvements subsequent to the assessments for SID No. 565 or other similarly adopted improvement districts, parking space requirements shall be satisfied prior to initiation of those new or expanded uses. D. Disabled Accessible Parking Spaces 1. Disabled parking spaces shall be provided subject to federal standards enumerated in the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) dated January 26, 1992, and Federal Standard 795, (Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards) dated April 1, 1988, Chapter 4 (Accessible Elements and Spaces: Scope and Technical Requirements). Each disabled parking space shall also be accompanied by a sign stating "Permit Required $100 Fine." See Figure 18.46.040.D in Appendix A. 2. All parking lots and facilities shall be subject to current International Building Code guidelines for accessibility, and shall contain a minimum number of disabled accessible parking spaces as set forth in the table below: Table 46-6 Total Parking Required Minimum Number of Total Parking Required Minimum Number of in Lot Accessible Spaces in Lot Accessible Spaces 1 to 25 1 201 to 300 7 26 to 50 2 301 to 400 8 51 to 75 3 401 to 500 9 76 to 100 4 501 to 1000 2 percent of total 101 to 150 5 1001 and over 20, plus 1 for each 100 over 1000 151 to 200 6 a.

Up to 80 percent of the parking facilities required by this chapter for a church, civic center, performing arts center, or for an auditorium incidental to a public or parochial school may be supplied with the off-street parking facilities of the following daytime uses: banks, business offices, retail stores, personal service shops, household equipment or furniture shops, clothing or shoe repair or service shops, manufacturing, wholesale, and similar uses. B. Other joint use of parking by commercial uses to reduce total parking spaces may be allowed with an approved parking study submitted by a registered professional engineer, architect, or landscape architect. In conjunction with the preliminary plan review for a proposed development under the provisions of Chapter 18.34, a shared parking study may be submitted to establish a lower number of parking spaces than would be required by S 18.46.040. Any proposed study shall follow the methodology established by the pUblication 'Shared Parking' published in 1983 by XVIII-46 p12 10/2005 the Urban Land Institute or an equivalent reference. If the City does not possess a copy of the volume establishing the methodology used in the study a copy shall be submitted at the time of preliminary plan submittal. If the study is not acceptable to the City, the required parking for the proposed development shall be established by the application of the minimum parking standards of this title. C.
