LAST AMENDED
12/5/2024

Except as provided in Section 84-142 (Accessory off-street parking spaces for buildings containing hotel uses), #accessory# off-
street parking spaces may be provided only for #residential uses# subject to the provisions of this Section. The ownership
requirement for #accessory# off-street parking is satisfied by an interest commensurate with the interest of the principal #use#.
Such #accessory# parking spaces shall be #completely enclosed#. No portion of any #accessory# parking facility may be
constructed at a height of more than 23 feet above #curb level#. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, no #accessory# off-
site parking shall be permitted.

#Accessory# parking facilities shall be constructed so that no exhaust vents open onto any #street# or park or onto the
#Esplanade# and so that no portion of the facility, other than entrances and exits, is visible from adjoining #zoning lots#,
#streets# or parks or the #Esplanade#.

The City Planning Commission may, upon application, authorize permitted #accessory# off-street parking spaces to be located
anywhere within Zone A without regard for #zoning lot lines#, provided that the Commission shall find that:

(a)    the #accessory# off-street parking spaces and required curb cuts are located within subzones A-1, A-2 or A-3 for #zoning
       lots# within subzones A-1, A-2 or A-3, or within subzones A-5 or A-6 for #zoning lots# in subzones A-5 or A-6, as
       indicated in Appendices 2 and 3; parking setbacks in Appendices 2.5 and 3.4; and curb cut locations in Appendices 2.6
       and 3.5;

(b)    such #accessory# off-street parking spaces will be conveniently located in relation to the #buildings# containing
       #residences# to which such off-street spaces are #accessory#, and provided that all such spaces shall not be further than
       600 feet from the nearest boundary of the #zoning lot# occupied by the #residences# to which they are #accessory# ;

(c)    such location of #accessory# off-street parking spaces will permit better site planning;

(d)    such #accessory# off-street parking facility shall contain parking spaces #accessory# to #residential uses# only; and

(e)    such parking facility complies with the findings in paragraphs (b)(1), (b)(2), (b)(3) and (b)(5) of Section 13-45 (Special
       Permits for Additional Parking Spaces).

Whenever off-street parking spaces are authorized to be located without regard to #zoning lot lines# in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the number of spaces generated by each #building# shall be recorded in that building's certificate of
occupancy (temporary and permanent). In addition, any certificate of occupancy for the #accessory# off-street parking facility
shall state the number of parking spaces authorized to be relocated from each #zoning lot#.
