§ 8108-4.5. Carpool parking.

The requirement to provide carpool parking spaces is intended to encourage carpooling, but should not result in parking spaces that consistently go unused.

a.

Number of Spaces. For all land uses, one (1) carpool or vanpool parking space shall be provided for every thirty-five (35) employees employed at the site. Carpool or vanpool parking spaces shall be reserved until one (1) hour after the employees' work shift begins, after which they may be open to single-occupancy vehicles. In addition, for professional, vocational, art and craft schools, colleges, universities and the like, one (1) out of every twenty-five (25) student parking spaces on a site shall be reserved for carpool or vanpool parking at all times. This requirement does not preclude designation of more than the minimum required number of carpool spaces.

b.

Signs. Signs shall be posted clearly indicating carpool and vanpool restrictions.

c.

Planning Director Waivers/Modifications. The Director may modify or waive carpool parking requirements when the applicant demonstrates that the nature of the land use precludes carpooling.
