Parking minimum removal
There is no minimum parking requirement for non-residential uses. However, the applicant must provide a statement or parking analysis indicating how they will provide adequate parking for the proposed non-residential use to succeed without negatively impacting adjacent properties or creating or compounding a dangerous traffic condition. Residential uses require parking, except in the C-3 Central Business District.
