Chris Coy moved, with a second by B J Nicholson, to deny Special Use Request SU01-08, and the motion prevailed by the following vote: Ayes: Oliver, Fry, Coy, Murray, and Nicholson Nays: Busbee and Undersander PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 12, DEFINITIONS; AND SECTION 49 SPECIAL USE PERMITS RELATIVE TO PAID OFF-STREET PARKING Next for the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider were the amendments to the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, relative to Section 12, Definitions, and Section 49, Special Use Permits, relative to a provision for paid off-street parking, and to take any action necessary. Currently, the City's zoning ordinance has no provisions regarding landowners or tenants that elect to charge patrons to park in their off-street parking lots. At the medical office building located at 1601 Lancaster Drive, the landowner (Dr. Nathan Graves) has installed ticket gates at the entrance and is charging a fee to visitors and patients that park their vehicles in the parking lot. This scenario has led to visible problems. A high number of customers are parking their vehicles on Lancaster Drive, despite the adequate spaces to accommodate them in the lot. In addition, fire and other large emergency vehicles cannot enter the site because of the installation of the gates and obstructions. Staff feels that adding a provision into the zoning ordinance requiring a Special Use Permit for paid off- street parking would enable the City to prevent problems like this in the future. Staff has drafted an amendment to Section 12, Definitions, to amend the definition for "Off - Street Parking" to incorporate paid parking; as well as an amendment to Section 49, Special Use Permits, to create a mechanism to regulate the implementation of paid off-street parking lots. Some exceptions have been provided to the Special Use requirement, including paid off-street parking lots associated with City and School sponsored special events; valet parking services; and tenant parking at multifamily developments. The proposed amendments to Section 12 read as follows: Item 300. OFF-STREET PARKING shall mean asphalt or concrete surface areas upon which motor vehicles may be parked and which area has access to a public 121801 4 ro . a �jrjjp�* k� 0 �M*1341NXIRERUIR11 street. The minimum required off-street parking shall be provided to patrons of the associated use free of charge, unless approved with a Special Use Permit in accordance with Section 49 of this ordinance. The proposed amendments to Section 49 read as follows: Item 15. Off-street parking lots, accommodating- a permitted or conditional use within a zoning district, which require any payment for parking. (a) EXCEPTIONS• The following uses shall be exempt from the requirements of this section. (1) Paid off-street parking lots operated during City sponsored festivals and other City -sponsored special events. (2) Off-street parking, such as covered parking or garages,_ within a Multi -family development -for which tenants can choose to pay a monthly premium, often incorporated into their lease agreement. (3) Valet parking associated with a hotel or restaurant. Mr. Jerry Pittman spoke in favor of the request.
