Parking standards and loading standards

Zoning ordinance update

Parking and loading standards have been updated. Guiding principles for this subproject addressed safety, sightlines, simplicity and capacity. Important issues included minimum required parking levels by use, flexibility measures, island requirements, pedestrian accommodation, limitations on the number of vehicles allowed to park on single and two-family residences, and residential driveway and parking pad standards. The update effort was assisted by a focus group.
