The purpose of this chapter is to regulate land use for parking, loading and maneuvering; to assure the provision of at least the minimum number of off-street parking spaces for each use; to enact standards for parking and loading; to assure maintenance of existing parking; and to prohibit inappropriate parking. These standards are designed to provide for the parking and loading needs of occupants, customers, visitors or others involved in the use or occupancy of any building or parking lot; to minimize parking on the public street and traffic congestion; and to limit noise pollution and wear and tear on the public streets; all to protect the public health, safety and general welfare.
This chapter regulates parking and loading that is designed for either principal or accessory uses. The standards in this chapter are those that will be reviewed by the division of building services before issuing a certificate of zoning clearance. Other parking or parking lot requirements may be regulated by the division of traffic engineering and the division of sewerage and drainage. (Ord. 18-85; Ord. 1272-01 § 1 (part).)

1. Each owner of real property shall provide and continue to provide parking in compliance with code provisions in effect at the time such particular use commenced.
2. Any person who initiates a new use, or changes or expands an existing use on any lot shall provide off-street parking, loading and maneuvering spaces in compliance with this chapter. For purposes of this chapter, "existing" means prior to change or expansion and includes "former"; and "new" means subsequent to change or expansion and includes "proposed."
3. The minimum number of parking and loading spaces required for a particular use are specified in this chapter. Exceptions to these minimum requirements are as follows:
a. Special Parking Areas. A lot which lies within a special parking area, shall be subject to specifications for that area.
b. Change of Use. A use of higher intensity requires more parking spaces than does a use of lower intensity. For purposes of comparison "intensity" means the demand for parking spaces generated by a particular use. Such demand is measured by the requirements of this chapter. Any person who changes a use on any lot, shall provide the number of parking spaces required by the intensity of such use calculated as specified in items (1) through (6).
(1) Without expansion of an existing building, a new use of intensity equal to or lower than the existing use shall provide the same number of parking spaces as the existing number of parking spaces; no additional parking spaces shall be required. Example:

(2) With expansion of an existing building, a new use of intensity equal to or lower than the existing use shall provide the same number of parking spaces as the existing number of parking spaces, plus the additional parking spaces required for the expansion. Example:

(3) Without expansion of an existing building, a new use of higher intensity than the existing use shall provide the same number of parking spaces as the existing use, plus additional parking spaces equal to the difference between that required for the higher and lower intensity uses. Example:

(4) With expansion of an existing building where the number of existing parking spaces is less than the number required for the existing use and is also less than that required for the new use, a new use of higher intensity than the existing use shall provide the same number of parking spaces as the existing use, plus additional parking spaces equal to the difference between that required for the higher and lower intensity uses, plus that number required for the expansion. Example:

(5) With expansion of an existing building where the number of existing parking spaces is less than that required for the existing use but is more than that required for the new use, a new use shall provide the number of parking spaces required for the new use plus that required for the expansion. Example:

(6) With expansion of an existing building where the number of existing parking spaces exceeds both that required for the existing use and that required for the new use, a new use shall provide the number of parking spaces required for the new use plus that required for the expansion. Example:

4. Parking spaces shall be provided on the same lot as the use they are intended to serve with the following exceptions:
a. Guest parking for town house development may be located within two hundred (200) feet of the lot served within the same development plat.
b. For a commercial, institutional or industrial use, the parking may be provided on a lot that is:
(1) Located within seven hundred and fifty (750) feet of the use to be served; and
(2) Owned or leased by the applicant and located in an appropriate zoning district with a limited overlay having conditions which limit its use to parking reserved for the duration of that use to be served.
5. Revision of an approved parking lot; including, but not limited to reduction, enlargement, restriping or remarking of any parking lot in a manner that differs from the existing site plan; shall require a new site plan and a certificate of zoning clearance prior to such change.
6. Off-street parking and loading spaces required for any use not specifically listed herein shall be the same as that required for a similar type use as determined by the administrator. (Ord. 1221-87; Ord. 1909-01 § 1 (part); Ord. 1016-2008 § 1.)

The location of a dumpster, if any, shall be shown on the site plan with proper loading and maneuvering space; and for the purpose of location, shall be treated as a structure. A dumpster shall be screened from view on all sides. Such area shall not be located in any required yard or setback and shall be maintained according to the requirements of the board of health.
B. Recycling dumpsters, when provided for, by, or on the behalf of a solid waste authority pursuant to a comprehensive recycling program and operated by said solid waste authority, shall be excluded from the requirements contained in this Zoning Code, except that such dumpsters and dumpster areas shall be maintained according to the requirements of the board of health and shall not interfere with any aisle, driveway, loading space or other circulation area or be located in any required parking spot.
The solid waste authority shall notify the Director of the location of each recycling dumpster and the materials to be collected as part of the comprehensive recycling program. (Ord. 18-85: Ord. 2331-03 § 1.)

Signs in a parking lot, including ingress/egress signs, shall comply with the provisions of the Graphics Code. (Ord. 18-85; Ord. 2836-96 § 3.)

a. Interior Landscaping.
The purpose of requiring interior landscaping is to help reduce glare and heat build-up; to promote interior islands for pedestrian safety and traffic separation; and to visually break up large expanses of pavement.
The interior of any parking lot containing sixty (60) parking spaces or more shall be landscaped. Interior landscaping shall be provided at a ratio of one (1) shade tree for every ten (10) parking spaces or fraction thereof. The minimum soil area per tree shall be sixteen (16) square feet. Space devoted to interior landscaping shall be in addition to any required front, side or rear yard or any required screening area.

Planting beds for parking lot shade trees shall be arranged and constructed with suitable curbing materials so as to minimize damage to tree trunks and roots from vehicles, pedestrians and parking lot maintenance. All trees shall be maintained in a healthy condition and replaced as needed.
b. Parking setback landscaping.
The purpose of requiring landscaping in the parking setback area is to buffer automobile and pedestrian areas and uses; to provide adequate visibility and safety; and to avoid the illegal use of said area for parking. The lot area between the right-of-way and the parking setback line shall be landscaped and shall not be paved except for a driveway, if necessary.
c. Perimeter landscaping.
See C.C. Section 3342.17, Parking lot screening. (Ord. 1011-85.)

Any parking lot containing ten (10) or more parking spaces, which is used during non-daylight hours shall be illuminated during such hours to provide an average intensity of not less than one-half (1/2) foot candles of light as measured at the surface of the parking space to assist both pedestrians and motorists in avoiding accidents. Any lights or light fixtures used to illuminate any parking lot shall be selected and so arranged as to direct and reflect the light away from any adjacent property or public way. (Ord. 18-85.)

For purposes of this section, “affected residential owner” shall mean any owner of residentially zoned property whose boundary lies within eighty (80) feet of the perimeter of a parking lot; and “parking lot” shall include any parking driveway thereto.
a. Parking Lot Screening Required. Any portion of a parking lot located within eighty (80) feet of residentially zoned property shall be screened, as hereinafter set forth, on the perimeter affecting same. The portion of such perimeter, if any, lying between the street right-of-way line and the parking setback line shall be excluded from screening requirements.
b. Screening Indicated on Site Plan. Screening required by this section shall be indicated on the original site plan filed to obtain a certificate of zoning clearance for any parking lot. Parking lot screening shall be provided to reduce headlight glare and to visually screen a parking lot from any residentially zoned property within eighty (80) feet thereof. Such parking lot screening shall be installed in accordance with the site plan and this section except when a limited waiver as set forth in subsection (d) hereof is in effect. For such express exceptions screening requirements shall be temporarily waived.
c. Standards. Parking lot screening shall conform to the following standards:
1. Screening shall consist of a fence, landscaped earth mound of suitable slope, wall, planting or combination thereof installed, repaired, replaced and maintained to a total height of no less than five (5) feet above the parking lot grade and to an opacity of not less than seventy-five (75) percent.
2. Screening shall be installed and maintained in a neat and orderly manner.
3. Screening shall be reasonably uniform in height and opacity along its entire length, provided, however, that screening is not required within one (1) foot of the ground.
4. The percentage of opacity shall be determined by measurement of any square foot of the vertical surface of the screening from a point perpendicular thereto. Permissibly open area shall not be included in the opacity determination.
5. When screening of live plants is installed, alone or in combination with other materials, the plants shall:
(a) Be selected for year-round dense foliage adequate to shade residences from headlight glare;
(b) Be selected to achieve the height and density specified in (b) above within three (3) years of installation;
(c) Be matured to a minimum height of three (3) feet at the time of installation; and
(d) Be maintained in a healthy, live state and replaced as needed to comply with the original site plan and the specifications and standards herein set forth.
d. Limited Waiver Agreement. The requirements for installation of parking lot screening may be temporarily waived when all affected residential owners agree with the parking lot owner that such screening is neither necessary nor desirable. The division shall recognize such agreement upon receipt of an appropriate affidavit.
e. Affidavit. Any parking lot owner who has a limited waiver agreement with all affected residential owners shall notify the division of such agreement by affidavit on a form prescribed by the administrator.
f. Cancellation of Agreement. The limited waiver agreement, however, shall be cancelable upon thirty (30) days notice to the parking lot owner by any affected residential owner. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, the parking lot owner shall install screening in conformity to this section, enter a new agreement with all affected residential owners, or apply for a variance. Any such parking lot owner failing to so act shall be in violation of the Zoning Code.
g. Exemptions. No screening shall be required for any parking lot not specifically provided for in this section or for a parking lot effectively screened to this section’s standards and specifications by existing natural or artificial barriers. A parking lot need not be screened from the use it serves. (Ord. 18-85.)

A parking setback line establishes how close parking, loading or maneuvering may be located to a street right-of-way line. This line shall be located a minimum distance from a street right-of-way line and be related to a building line as follows:
a. On unimproved frontage the parking setback line shall coincide with the required building setback line.
b. Where a required building setback line is greater than twenty-five (25) feet, the parking setback line shall be twenty-five (25) feet from the street right-of-way line.
c. Where a required building setback line is less than twenty-five (25) feet, the parking setback line shall follow the building setback line or the established parking setback, whichever is less, but in no case shall the parking setback line be less than ten (10) feet from the street right-of-way line.
d. In C-1, C-2, C-3, C-4 and C-5 Commercial Districts and for commercial uses located in M-Manufacturing Districts the parking setback line shall be established ten (10) feet from the street right-of-way line without respect to the building line.
Exception: Where a parking setback line is specifically established by Council ordinance, zoning district, overlay, or subdivision plat, the parking setback line shall conform to that requirement. (Ord. 18-85.)

A parking space shall be a rectangular area of not less than nine (9) feet by eighteen (18) feet, exclusive of any driveway or other circulation area; shall be accessible from a street, alley, or maneuvering area; and shall be designed for parking a motor vehicle.

Parking spaces for the handicapped and elderly shall meet the requirements of the Ohio Basic Building Code. Each such space may be included in the computation of required space as specified in this chapter. (Ord. 18-85.)

Excess parking over and above the minimum required by this chapter may be designed to accommodate small cars. The design and placement of each space shall be reviewed and approved by the Division of Traffic Services prior to approval by this Division. (Ord. 18-85.)

In residential districts, no required off-street parking space, no parking space in front of the setback line, and no required front, side or rear yard area or other unimproved surface shall be used for the parking or storage of a boat, trailer, camping trailer or other recreational vehicle.
No commercial vehicle or other vehicle which infringes on the residential character of a residential district shall be stored or parked on a residentially zoned lot. However, infrequent, short-term parking of a commercial or commercial-type vehicle for conveying tools and materials to premises where labor using such tools and materials is being performed, delivering goods to a residence, or moving furniture to or from a residence, all only during the time such parking is actually necessary, is hereby excepted from this section.
For purposes of this section, “commercial vehicle” means any vehicle used or designed to be used for business or commercial purposes which infringes on the residential character of a residential district and includes, but is not necessarily limited to: a bus, cement truck, commercial tree-trimming equipment, construction equipment, dump truck, garbage truck, panel truck, semi-tractor, semi-trailer, stake bed truck, step van, tank truck, tar truck, or other commercial-type vehicle licensed by the Ohio State Bureau of Motor Vehicles as a commercial vehicle or truck.

No person shall use any premises in any residential, apartment, or institutional use district, private or public parking district, or C-l, C-2, C-3 or C-4 commercial use district for the purpose of parking or keeping an inoperable motor vehicle except when ancillary to a specifically permitted use in a C-4 Commercial District. As used in this section, “keeping an inoperable motor vehicle” means and includes storing, maintaining, collecting, depositing, reserving, allowing to stand, or permitting to remain, one or more inoperable motor vehicles at any place other than in an enclosed garage.
For purposes of this section, a motor vehicle shall be deemed inoperable when any of the following conditions exist: one or more wheels are missing; one or more tires are missing; two or more tires are flat; one or more windows are missing or broken; the windshield is shattered or missing; parts necessary for the operation of the vehicle are missing; or a license with a distinctive number and valid for the current year is not displayed thereon. (Ord. 1482-95.)

Parking space striping is required and shall be maintained in good condition. Each parking space and aisle shall be clearly designated and marked to assure approved utilization of the space, direction of traffic flow and general safety. When a parking space is designated for handicapped or small car use, it shall be clearly marked.
Staff shall approve a plan for restriping an existing parking lot, without the approval of the Board of Zoning Adjustment, even though fewer parking spaces are provided than this chapter requires only if: (1) such lot is being restriped solely to add handicapped parking spaces required by the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines; and (2) the owner and applicant affirm by sworn affidavit that no additional undeveloped land is available by ownership or lease upon which to meet this chapter’s requirements. (Ord. 678-93.)

The surface of any parking or loading space, parking lot, aisle or driveway shall be designed to control stormwater runoff and be improved with Portland cement, asphaltic concrete or hard surface other than gravel or loose fill. Drainage shall conform to the standards of the Division of Sewerage and Drainage. This section is intended to apply to any parking, loading, or maneuvering area regardless of whether or not such area is required.
Exception: The Administrator may waive the hard surface requirement for a use located in a manufacturing district when the proposed parking space is located at least four hundred (400) feet from any residential district. (Ord. 18-85.)

Minimum acceptable vision clearance standards for motorist and pedestrian safety at vehicular access points along streets are hereby established by restricting the placement, opacity, height and configuration of any fence, wall, planting or other obstruction in a required yard. Any person establishing a parking space which uses a driveway leading to a public street, shall maintain vision clearance at the intersection of such driveway and street right-of-way line.
a. Clear vision for driveways to parking lots. An owner shall maintain unobstructed vision clearance between the elevations of two and one-half (2-1/2) to ten (10) feet above the driveway grade within “clear vision triangles”; two, ten-foot, right-angle triangles formed by the intersection of a driveway pavement edge and street right-of-way line. See Figure 4.
b. Clear vision for other driveways. An owner shall maintain vision clearance on each residential lot abutting a street and having access thereto or abutting such access. No portion of a fence or wall exceeding two and one-half (2-1/2) feet in height above the finished lot grade shall exceed twenty-five (25) percent opacity when located in a required yard having vehicular access to a street or abutting such access; and mature plantings with foliage between two and one-half (2-1/2) and six (6) feet above the finished lot grade shall extend no closer than twelve (12) feet to the street right-of-way line. The percentage of opacity shall be determined by measurement of any typical square foot of the vertical surface of the fence or wall from a point perpendicular thereto. See Figure 5.

(Ord. 18-85.)

Whenever a parking lot extends to a property line, sidewalk, planter strip or building; a wheel stop device consisting of blocks, a permanent curb, expanded sidewalk or other suitable restraint shall be installed to prevent any part of a parked motor vehicle from extending beyond the property line, overhanging a pedestrian circulation way or sidewalk, or damaging any structure or landscaping.
The minimum height of a wheel stop device shall be five (5) inches and the minimum distance from a wheel stop device to a property line or protected area shall be two and one-half (2-1/2) feet. (Ord. 18-85.)

Whenever there is more than one type of use on a lot or parcel, the area allocated for each specific use must be clearly shown on the site plan.
Each separate use shall meet its own specific requirements as set forth in this chapter.
The total number of parking spaces required shall be the sum of all the requirements for each separate primary and accessory use on the premises.
Whenever, the total sum computed for required off-street parking or loading spaces includes a fraction, the next higher whole number shall be required.
For purposes of off-street parking and loading requirements “gross floor area” shall include all of the area on each floor whether or not such area is enclosed by walls, exclusive of interior areas used for off-street parking or loading facilities. (Ord. 18-85.)
