� � r <br />Director Boling reviewed Chapter 954 - Off -Street Parking, <br />the highlights of which are as follows: <br />Chapter 954 <br />Off -Street Parking <br />More categories added (35 to 58) <br />3 uses increased, 5 decreased <br />Non -paving options expanded <br />Parking lot design flexibility increased <br />Circulation criteria added <br />Shared parking for mixed uses allowed <br />Director Boling advised that this is an ordinance we have <br />wanted to expand for sometime, and probably the most significant <br />change is to increase the number of categories. He noted that we <br />have copies of 45 parking ordinances from various states and <br />continued to go over the highlights. <br />Commissioner Bird commented that he gets the impression <br />staff is trying to be as reasonable as possible on these <br />requirements which use up green space and cost a lot of money. <br />He felt there is a whole list of reasons why an oversize parking <br />lot is bad in a lot.of ways. <br />Director Boling noted that we are heading in the direction <br />of allowing some grass parking areas for "peak" season. <br />Robert Gaskill of Vista Properties voiced his objection to <br />the requirement that all multifamily developments having 50 or <br />more dwelling units shall provide one screened space for the <br />storage of recreational vehicles for each 10 dwelling units. He <br />noted that there is a provision that this requirement can be <br />waived if the developer puts in the covenants a statement <br />restricting the storage of such vehicles to a certain time <br />period. Firstly, he did not think you can have covenants in <br />rental projects, and secondly, if you can, he felt it should be <br />optional to have a covenant that you won't allow such vehicles on <br />the property. <br />AUG 0 0 1990 25 NOK ���vE. ��„ f <br />J <br />
