Shared parking

The number of parking spaces required may be reduced if two or more uses on the same or different lots are able to share parking areas because their parking demands occur at different times; provided, however, that t he number of required spaces shall not be fewer than the number required for the use that requires the greatest number of spaces. To request shared parking spaces, the applicant must submit the following information to the planning board or the zoning board of review:

A.  The plat and lot number of the parking area or areas, the names and addresses of the property owners, and the uses that will share the parking.

B.  The location and number of parking spaces that are being shared.

C.  An analysis showing that the peak parking times for the uses occur at different times of day or days of the week, and that the parking area will be able to accommodate the anticipated parking needs of the uses.

D.  If the parking areas are in different ownership, an easement or deed restriction that guarantees access to the parking for both uses.
