The following general requirements apply to off-street parking:

A. At the time of initial occupancy, major alteration, or enlargement of a site, or of completion of construction of a structure or of a major alteration or enlargement of a structure, there shall be provided off-street loading facilities for trucks in accordance with the schedule of off-street loading berth requirements prescribed in Section 11.100. For the purpose of this section, the terms “major alteration” or “enlargement” shall mean a change of use or an addition which would increase the number of loading berths required by not less than 10 percent of the total number required. The number of loading berths provided for a major alteration or enlargement of a site or structure shall be in addition to the number existing prior to the alteration or enlargement, unless the preexisting number is greater than the number prescribed in Section 11.100 in which instance the number in excess of the prescribed minimum shall be counted in calculating the number provided to serve the major alteration or enlargement.

B. Location of Off-Street Loading Facilities. Off-street loading facilities prescribed in Section 11.100, inclusive, shall be located on the same site with the use for which the berths are required or on an adjoining site.

C. Off-Street Loading Facilities to Serve One Use. Off-street loading facilities for one use shall not be considered as providing required off-street loading facilities for any other use except as provided for in Section 11.105.

D. More Than One Use on a Site. If more than one use is located on a site, the number of loading berths provided shall be equal to the sum of the requirements prescribed in this article for each use. If more than one use is located on a site and the gross floor area of each use is less than the minimum for which loading berths are required, off-street loading berths shall be provided as if the aggregate gross floor area were used for the use requiring the greatest number of loading berths.

E. Space allocated to any off-street loading berth shall not, while so located, be used to satisfy the space requirements for any off-street parking facility. (Ord. 2830 (Exh. A), 2022; Ord. 2764 § 3 (Exh. A), 2021.)
