11.g. Off-Street parking requirements WF5.3.20§ 350-8.1. Off-Street parking requirements.
For all zoning districts, off-street parking spaces shall be provided for
every new structure, the enlargement of an existing structure, and
new or expanded uses, except as noted below, in accordance with
the Table of Off-Street Parking Regulations and other requirements
contained herein.
A. For all zoning districts, except General Business (GB) Districts, in
cases of a change in use where the existing use (or in cases of
vacancy, the next previous use) did not provide for the number of
off-street parking spaces required under this chapter, then the
proposed use shall only have to provide an additional number of
off-street parking spaces equal to the increase, if any, between
the number required under this chapter for the existing use and
the number required for the proposed use.
B. For Entranceway Business (EB) and General Business (GB)
Districts only, no additional off-street parking is required for the
following:
(1) Continued use or reuse of existing buildings, as long as that
use or reuse does not increase the total floor area within the
building nor include outside storage of cars for sale or rent.
(2) The replacement of existing finished floor space and
unfinished basements on the same parcel with site plan
approval (but no increase in net floor space).
(3) The addition of a second floor to one-story (for the purpose of
this section, basements shall not count as a story) buildings
existing in the CB District only on January 1, 1996. (This is to
encourage the restoration of building heights in the CB
District which are more uniform and consistent with the scale
of development which has historically existed.) However, the
addition of additional floors or an expanded building footprint
shall be subject to the parking requirements.
(4) Municipal facilities and municipal properties.
C. Table of Off-Street Parking Regulations. Parking shall be provided
to serve the parking needs which are generated by a particular
use or structure. When there is more than one primary use of a
structure, the parking requirements for each use must be met
unless one use is incidental to the principal use of the structure.
Additional spaces where passengers may be dropped off may be
required by the Planning Board for projects which require site
plan approval.
