T-1.1: Amend the Off-Street Parking Regulation

Amend the Off-Street Parking Regulation of Municipal Code to incorporate smart growth principles and to incentivize walking, biking, and public transit.

  1. Create a single “blended” parking requirement for commercial uses to facilitate future changes of use (i.e., changing a retail store to a restaurant).
  2. Provide requirements or incentives for bicycle parking.
  3. Allow on-street parking along the property’s frontage to count towards satisfying a portion of the property’s off-street parking requirements.
  4. Create parking preferences or incentives for residents who rideshare or use low- or zero-emissions vehicles.
  5. Allow property owners to develop and implement parking demand management plans that consider ways to reduce the need for off-street parking by using shared parking arrangements, valet parking services, paid parking, and other appropriate techniques.
  6. Establish design standards or retrofit standards for Complete Streets.
  7. Promote multi-modal use.
