350.045 Number of Required Spaces | Wood Village Development Code

1. Table 350-1A and 1B state the required minimum and maximum number of spaces for each use category.

2. When computing parking spaces based on floor area, areas used for parking are not counted. The number of parking spaces is computed based on the primary use of the site except as stated in Paragraphs 3 and 4 below.

3. When there are two or more separate uses on a site, the required parking for the site is the sum of the required parking for the individual uses. For joint use parking, see Paragraph 5.

4. When a use has more than 20 percent of its floor area in a distinct function (i.e., office, warehouse, or retail), the required parking is calculated separately for each function. An example would be a 40,000 square foot use with a 10,000 square foot office area and a 30,000 square foot warehouse. The required parking would be computed separately for the office and warehouse functions.

5. Joint Use Parking. Joint use of required parking spaces may occur where two or more uses on the same or separate sites are able to share the same parking spaces because their parking demands occur at different times. The number of required stalls per use may be reduced up to 25%. Joint use of required nonresidential parking spaces is allowed if the following documentation is submitted in writing to the City Administrator as part of a building permit application or land use review.

(a) The names and addresses of the uses and of the owners or tenants that are sharing the parking;

(b) The location and number of parking spaces that are being shared;

(c) An analysis showing that the peak parking times of the uses occur at different times and that the parking area will be large enough for the anticipated demands of both uses; and

(d) A legal instrument such as an easement, lease, contract or similar written document or deed restriction that guarantees access to the parking for both uses.

(i) Multi-family residential development shall provide a minimum of two bicycle parking spaces or one per 10 auto spaces, whichever is greater.

(ii) Industrial development shall provide a minimum of two bicycle parking spaces or one space for every 30 auto spaces, whichever is greater.

(iii) Development in commercial and institutional categories must provide a minimum of two bicycle parking spaces per building or one space for each 30 auto spaces, whichever is greater.

(i) The parking shall be well-lighted and lockable so as to provide security and convenience to bicyclists. The bicycle parking must be within 50 feet of a well- used building entrance. On property with multiple uses of buildings, bicycle parking may be clustered in one or more locations.

(ii) The on-site circulation system must be designed to accommodate safe and convenient bicycle access.
