Where #accessory# off-street parking is required to be maintained for #multiple dwelling residences# pursuant to Section 25-
211, the number of required #accessory# off-street parking spaces may be calculated pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section.

For the purposes of calculating the number of required parking spaces for any #building# containing #residences#, any fraction
of a space 50 percent or greater shall be counted as an additional space, and for the purposes of applying such provisions to
#rooming units#, three #rooming units# shall be considered the equivalent of one #dwelling unit#.

Any #accessory# off-street parking spaces serving a #zoning lot# in excess of the number required by this Section shall be
considered permitted spaces and shall not be regulated by the provisions of Section 25-20, inclusive.

(a)    Previously approved applications

       The number of required #accessory# off-street parking spaces shall be the number of spaces that were required at the time
       of the #development#, #enlargement# or #conversion#, as applicable, unless it would no longer be required pursuant to
       the regulations in effect prior to December 5, 2024. Such calculation may include all applicable parking reductions,
       waivers, geographically based modifications, or modifications for specific #uses#.

       For the purpose of establishing this amount, the Department of Buildings may accept any historical evidence deemed
       appropriate by the Department of Buildings, such as construction documents, zoning analyses, or other documents
       submitted as an approved application for a building permit.

       Where a #building# was subsequently #enlarged# or #converted# after its #development#, this historical evidence must
       include materials indicating the most-recent parking requirement in effect for all #dwelling units# on the #zoning lot#
       prior to December 5, 2024.

(b)    Simplified reference table

       As an alternative to the method set forth in paragraph (a), the number of required #accessory# off-street parking spaces
       shall be the number of spaces set forth in this paragraph (b).

       The number of required off-street spaces shall be determined by the total number of #dwelling units# on a #zoning lot#
       existing prior to December 5, 2024 multiplied by the applicable parking requirement in Column A or B, as applicable.
       However, where the calculation results in a number of parking spaces less than or equal to the number in Column C, no
       parking spaces shall be required for #residences# on the #zoning lot#.
