20D.130.10 Parking

In the administration of this section, the following rules shall be used where applicable:

(a) A development in existence prior to the adoption of the Development Guide or at the time of its annexation to the City, if later, which does not have sufficient parking space on the basis of this section, may continue to operate with the parking deficiency as long as no enlargement or land use change is made which would require additional parking spaces;

(b) When a pre-existing use is enlarged so as to require additional parking spaces, the requirements of this section shall apply only to the enlargement;

(c) When additional uses are placed on the same lot with the pre-existing use or an enlarged lot of which the pre-existing use lot is a part, the requirements of this section shall apply only to the additional use;

(d) When a pre-existing use is terminated, the area vacated shall not be occupied by a use requiring more parking spaces than the terminated use, unless the required additional parking spaces are provided.

(2) Separate Parking Facilities. A parking facility which is required for one establishment shall not be considered as part of the parking facility required for any other enterprise, except for cooperative parking as provided in RCDG 20D.130.10-040, General Parking Requirements.

(3) Site Plan Review Required. All proposed parking facilities are subject to the Site Plan Review Process of RCDG 20F.20.020, Site Plan Review.

(4) When a pre-existing building, which does not have sufficient parking, is remodeled or rehabilitated but not enlarged, the existing use of the building may continue without providing additional parking. If the land use is changed, any additional parking required must be provided. (Formerly 20C.20.150(05))

20D.130.10-020 Required Off-Street Parking.

(1) The minimum required and maximum permitted number of parking spaces for each zoning district and land use is noted in the table entitled, “Required Off-Street Parking,” which is incorporated as a part of this subsection. The requirements for land uses that have special parking needs supersede those based on zoning districts for the uses specified, regardless of location. Where calculations of parking requirements result in fractional amounts they shall be rounded up if 0.5 or over.

* The number of spaces must be adequate to accommodate the peak shift or maximum number of users as determined by the Code Administrator after considering the probable number of employees, users, attendees, etc.

*** The Technical Committee may consider parking at a ratio as low as 1.5 per 1,000 if a covenant is recorded with the property which limits the uses to warehouse uses and/or limits the number of employees permitted in a building or project. Parking at ratios greater than 3.0 per 1,000 (not to exceed 3.5 per 1,000) is generally not permitted unless the employer/building owner can document that single-occupancy vehicle trips can be reduced better through the employer/building owner’s parking/traffic mitigation program than they would be reduced through limiting parking stalls to 3.0 per 1,000.

# Bedroom shall include all rooms that can be used as permanent sleeping quarters.

1 The maximum number of parking stalls allowed may be increased to 5.0 stalls per 1,000 sq. ft. gfa for the retail components of mixed-use developments.

20D.130.10-040 General Parking Requirements.

(1) Cooperative Parking Facilities. Cooperative parking facilities may be provided subject to the approval of the Technical Committee where two or more land uses can be joined or coordinated to achieve efficiency of vehicular and pedestrian circulation, economy of space and a superior grouping of buildings or uses. When cooperative parking facilities can be provided, the Technical Committee may reduce the on-site parking requirements based on any of the following criteria:

(b) The number of parking spaces provided in the cooperative facility is no less than 60 percent of the total required on-site parking spaces for all participating uses.

The continuation of the cooperative facility shall be assured by a sufficient legal document such as a covenant or reciprocal easement agreement or by participation in a local improvement district or parking cooperative or association.

Shared parking associated with multi-tenant retail and commercial facilities will be considered to be a cooperative parking facility. Lease agreements will satisfy the requirement for a sufficient legal document. However, any new tenant whose parking requirement reduces the total parking available in the cooperative parking facility below 60 percent of the requirement for all uses sharing the facility, will be required to provide additional parking.

(2) In-lieu Parking Fees – Fund Created – Comprehensive Parking Plan. An in-lieu parking fee may be submitted to the City for each required parking space which is not provided on-site. The in-lieu parking fee shall be determined annually by the Technical Committee based on current land and construction costs.

There is hereby created a special fund within the Office of the Treasurer-Comptroller into which in-lieu fees shall be deposited to be used only for the construction of public parking facilities. Priorities for construction of parking facilities shall be identified in a comprehensive parking plan and capital improvements program approved by the City Council. The plan shall take into consideration the amount of available on-street parking within an area, the need for concentration of public facilities to prevent proliferation of private parking lots alternating with buildings, the visual and traffic impacts of parking facilities and the degree to which the parking facilities will encourage pedestrian circulation.

(a) Floor Area Bonus. A floor area bonus shall be granted within the Old Town Design Area for contribution to the fund. The bonus shall be granted at a ratio of three square feet of bonus floor area for each square foot of structured parking paid for by the in-lieu fee, up to the maximum allowable floor area within the permitted building envelope. The bonus floor area shall be exempt from parking requirements. For example: A 1,000 square- foot building requiring two parking spaces would pay for the construction of two structured parking stalls, at 325 square feet per stall. The bonus floor area granted would be three times the two stalls (3 x 650 square feet), or 1,950 square feet of additional floor area.

(3) Alternatives to Parking. The Technical Committee may reduce the requirements of this chapter if the applicant provides some of the following programs: vanpools, ridematch, fleet ride, subscription bus, regular transit subsidy or service extension, and parking management programs such as car pooling, flex-time, and preferential parking for car pools.

The Technical Committee shall require alternative parking programs if there is a need to reduce overall parking to alleviate adverse environmental impacts resulting from excessive ground coverage by impervious surfaces, or severe traffic impacts on adjacent arterial streets.

(4) Parking in Building Setback Areas. In all residential zoning districts and design areas, parking other than in driveways is not permitted in front setback areas. In all other zoning districts, parking is permitted in all setback areas subject to the requirements of the district and the following subsection (5) of this section, Parking Restricted in Shoreline Areas.

(5) Parking Restricted in Shoreline Areas. Parking facilities are prohibited in the waterfront building setbacks established in RCDG 20C.60.25, Site Requirements. (Ord. 1756. Formerly 20C.20.150 (20))

20D.130.10-050 Parking and Storage of Recreational, Utility and Commercial Vehicles in Residential Neighborhoods.

(1) Purpose. The intent of this section is to define permitted locations for the parking of recreational, utility and commercial vehicles within residential areas of the City such that neighborhood quality and character are maintained.

(2) Exemptions. Pickup or light trucks, 10,000 pounds gross weight or less, with or without a mounted camper unit, which are primarily used by the property owner for transportation purposes are exempt from this section.

(a) General Requirements. Vehicles may be parked in any area which is either residentially zoned or used for residential purposes, including City Center, provided the following conditions are met:

(i) Vehicles shall not intrude into a right-of-way or access easement or obstruct sight visibility from adjacent driveways, rights-of-way or access easements.

(ii) Recreational vehicles shall be operable and maintained in a clean, well-kept state that does not detract from the appearance of the surrounding area.

(iii) Recreational vehicles equipped with liquefied petroleum gas containers shall meet the standards of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Valves or gas containers shall be closed when the vehicle is stored, and, in the event of leakage, immediate corrective action must be taken.

(iv) Vehicles shall not be parked in a waterfront building setback, on slopes greater than 15 percent, in designated open spaces or recreational areas, in sensitive areas, in sensitive area buffers, or in floodways.

(v) Recreational vehicles may be occupied on a temporary basis not to exceed 30 days within one calendar year.

(vi) Unless the Uniform Building Code or Uniform Fire Code dictate otherwise, there shall be no minimum building separation for recreational and utility vehicles.

(A) Vehicles parked on the side or rear of a residential property must be sight screened from the closest abutting street right-of-way when the vehicle is not parked perpendicular to the right-of-way.

(B) Type I landscaping or an equivalent method as determined by the Code Administrator that meets the intent of this section shall be used.

(b) Permitted Parking Locations. A vehicle may be located in the following areas listed in order of priority, provided the general requirements of subsection (3)(a) of this section are met:

(iii) Within a front yard on a driveway only, parked perpendicular to the right-of-way. See Appendix 20D-3, Construction Specification and Design Standards for Streets and Access;

(iv) In other locations if determined by the Code Administrator to be less obtrusive than the above locations. Screening the recreational vehicle with landscaping, fencing or a combination of the two may be required to meet this standard;

(v) If none of the above locations are feasible, the recreational/utility vehicle must be stored off-site.

(c) Effective Date. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, for a maximum two-year period from the effective date of the first ordinance codified in this subsection, a recreational or utility vehicle which was owned and was being parked on a property by the occupant of the property on the effective date of this ordinance may continue to be parked; provided, that all such vehicles must be in compliance with all relevant requirements in effect prior to the adoption of the revisions.

(4) Truck Tractors and Trailers, Large Commercial Vehicles. Parking of commercial vehicles over 10,000 pounds gross weight is prohibited in residential areas. (Ord. 2149; formerly 20C.20.150(25))

20D.130.10-055 Interim Parking Regulations for the Property Zoned Overlake Business and Advanced Technology Previously Zoned EH-A, EH-B, EH-C, or EH-D.

(1) This section shall apply only to property zoned Overlake Business and Advanced Technology and previously zoned EH-A, EH-B, EH-C, or EH-D.

(a) The parking requirement for uses not specifically listed will be determined by the Technical Committee based on demonstrated demand, and comparison to similar uses.

(b) The minimum level of parking shall be installed prior to occupancy of the structure. Area needed to provide for parking up to the maximum shall be reserved in landscaped open space for future parking demand. The Technical Committee may permit improvement of this reserved space for additional parking if additional parking demand is demonstrated, but will not in any case allow additional parking exceeding the maximum allowed by the code based on actual building area except as provided below.

(3) The applicant may request approval to install more than the minimum parking spaces through the site plan review process. The Technical Committee may approve the initial installation of parking above the minimum (but not more than the maximum allowed by the code based on actual building area except as provided below) only if:

(a) The applicant can demonstrate specific employee parking requirements above the minimum; or

(b) The applicant can demonstrate financial hardship associated with limiting parking to the allowable minimum; or

(c) The applicant commits to additional Transportation Management Programs and a specific phasing schedule to reduce the need for parking over time and convert parking areas to landscaped open space; or

(d) The full floor area allowed on the site is not developed. The maximum number of parking spaces allowed on a given site, or portion of a site in the case of a phased development, may be calculated on the allowable floor area of the site, or portion thereof, as the case may be, rather than the actual floor area that is built, provided the following conditions are met:

(i) The applicant is a large, single user with a parcel of five acres or larger which will be maintained in single ownership and control. This does not preclude an applicant from leasing area within the site to other users, provided they are subject to parking management programs on the site;

(ii) The total parking allowed on the site does not exceed the maximum number of parking spaces as calculated in the approved master plan;

(iii) Applicability of the parking variation is on a site by site basis only, following approval of a master plan and evaluation by the Technical Committee;

(iv) The applicant includes the maximum feasible parking under buildings in the site plan;

(v) Parking areas are designed to eliminate or minimize parking around buildings, on slopes or grades, and effectively incorporate existing landscape materials in the design;

(vi) The applicant submits and agrees to implement a program of Traffic Impact Management approved by the Technical Committee. The Technical Committee may approve the program only if it demonstrates the likelihood of achieving a target percentage of employees commuting to work by means other than single occupant vehicles. The target percentage shall be established by the Technical Committee based upon a review of all circumstances relevant to determining the percentage of utilization of non-single occupant transportation that is reasonably feasible. The program of Traffic Impact Management may involve a combination of the following activities:

(A) Vanpool. Applicant may choose to purchase vans for publicly sponsored programs, loan commuter pool money to purchase vans, or provide privately owned vehicles.

(B) Ridematch. Applicant may participate in public ridematch programs using employees’ private vehicles, and park and pool lots.

(D) Subscription Bus. Applicant may subsidize bus service with minimum of 33 passengers.

(E) Regular Transit. Applicant may request extension of existing service, reverse commuting buses, or subsidize part or all of bus passes.

(F) Flex-Time. Applicant may agree to adjust work schedules to reduce peak hour impacts.

(G) Parking Management. Applicant may allocate carpools preferential parking spaces (guaranteed, close-in, or no cost). Applicant must agree that the parking preferences will be enforced.

(H) Promotion. Applicant may appoint an employee responsible for transportation coordination and information on available programs. Applicant may also provide financial or other incentives to use transportation programs.

(I) Other Programs. Applicant may propose additional measures or innovative techniques specifically related to employee needs that will reduce traffic impacts.

(4) When a development is phased, the request for the parking variation may be approved with the first phase, and the parking installed proportionate with the floor area in that phase. When applications are received for subsequent phases, the Technical Committee shall evaluate the traffic impact management program and determine if circumstances justify the total parking allowed by the variation.

(5) The Technical Committee shall consider the availability of public transportation programs and any other factor that may affect the ability of the applicant to achieve traffic mitigation objectives.

(6) Applicants must submit a plan that indicates how parking spaces allowed by the proposed parking ratio increase will be reduced if traffic mitigation objectives are not achieved. The City shall request the applicant to prepare a periodic report evaluating parking management programs and usage of existing parking facilities, and shall require reduction of the parking area allowed by the variation to a ratio of 3.6 parking spaces per 1,000 square feet of gross floor area of actual building constructed if transportation measures are not implemented as determined by the Technical Committee. Any parking spaces removed under this clause shall be converted to landscaped open space.

(8) Circulation must be consistent with the transportation facilities in the Comprehensive Plan and must:

(a) Be coordinated with other property in the performance area and with other performance areas in order to provide an efficient transportation system, and to minimize unnecessary paved area.

(b) Combine, wherever practical, accessways and parking areas if compatible with individual site design.

(d) Provide for non-motorized, including pedestrian and bicycle, movement throughout the performance area and design district.
