Page 7 of 9 Off-Street Parking – Discussion Requested The Applicant is seeking Council feedback on the number of parking spaces provided in satisfaction of ordinance requirements. Under City Code Section 1325.06, there are general categories listed to determine the number of parking spaces required. For concept review, the Council is asked to consider the following provisions based on the proposed uses: • Restaurants – 15 stacking spaces for each customer pickup window plus one (1) space for each two (2) seats. • Business & Professional Offices – one (1) parking space for each 250 sq. ft. of gross floor area. • Clinics – one (1) for each doctor or dentist plus one (1) for each nurse, technician, or professional and one (1) for each 200 sq. ft. of gross floor area. • Uses Not Specifically Noted Including Public Uses – As determined by City Council after recommendation by Planning Commission The Applicant is proposing 77 parking spaces total for the development. The following table breaks down the off-street parking requirements based on the proposed uses. Based on the site information provided, staff estimates the multi-tenant building would trigger the need to establish 60 parking spaces. This number does not factor in the proposed car wash. Land Use Category Proposed Concept Applicant Parking Required Parking Restaurant – 15 stacking spaces per pickup window and 1 space for each 2 seats 60 seats 28 stacking and 30 spaces 15 stacking and 30 spaces Bank – 1 space per 250 SF of gross floor area 2,210 15 8.84 Dental Office – 1 space per dentist & technician, and 1 space per 200 SF of gross floor area 3,000 15 + 6 (i.e. est. employees) = 21 21 Other Uses Not Specifically Noted 1 drive-thru car wash tunnel 10 As determined by City Council Site Total: 76 Approx. 60 without car wash The city code for off-street parking requirements does not identify a land use category for Motor Vehicle Service (i.e. car wash). The Applicant is proposing 10 parking spaces for the car wash use. A comparable land use for the car wash might be to refer to the Service Station classification which is three (3) spaces for each enclosed bay plus one (1) for each employee on peak work shift. As an alternate, the city code does identify a category for Uses Not Specifically Noted Including Public Uses as determined by the City Council. Staff would note that those 10 parking spaces appear to be in the same location shown in the renderings for the self-service vacuum stalls. Further clarification should be provided by the Applicant between employee and customer parking for the proposed car wash. Staff believes the need for off-street parking attributed to the car wash would be minimal given the type of drive-thru service described.
