§ 82-16.414. Shared parking.

(a)

The requirements of this chapter may be met through the use of shared parking spaces if the zoning administrator finds all of the following:

(1)

The number of off-street parking spaces to be shared by two or more land uses must be provided in an amount to satisfy the greatest number of off-street parking spaces required by this chapter for any of the land uses, when calculated individually. The number of off-street parking spaces to be shared by two or more land uses may not exceed the sum of the parking space requirements that otherwise would apply to the land uses under this chapter, when added together.

(2)

Each land use served by the shared parking spaces will utilize the spaces at different times.

(3)

The shared off-street parking spaces are not otherwise required to satisfy the parking requirements for some other use at times when they will be required to serve any of the shared land uses.

(b)

If an application for shared parking is approved by the zoning administrator, the applicant shall record in the office of the county recorder a deed restriction against the property or properties to be served by the shared parking. The deed restriction must specify the land uses served by the shared parking, and must designate and restrict the parking area to serve those land uses.

(c)

Any deed restriction recorded pursuant to this section may be amended or released only after obtaining the approval of the zoning administrator.

(1)

The zoning administrator will approve the release of the deed restriction if either of the following is satisfied:

(A)

Other off-street parking that meets the requirements of this chapter will be provided to serve one or more of the land uses served by the shared parking; or

(B)

One or more of the land uses served by the shared parking has changed, or will change, and off-street parking is no longer, or will no longer be, required under this chapter.

(2)

The zoning administrator will approve an amendment to a deed restriction to require a different amount of shared parking if there is a corresponding change in one or more of the land uses served by the shared parking to require more, or allow for less, shared parking under this chapter.

(d)

The parking area must include a sign or signs specifying the land uses served by the shared parking.
