E. - Calculation of required parking.

In calculating the number of required parking spaces, the following rules shall govern:

1.

The floor area or square footage of a residential or non-residential unit or building shall refer to the square footage of the gross floor area (SF GFA) of the specific use, measured in square feet from the exterior faces of exterior walls or from the centerline of walls separating two (2) attached buildings. Unless otherwise specified, the square footage of gross floor area shall include associated corridors, utility rooms and storage space.

2.

When the units of measurements determining the number of required parking spaces results in the requirement of a fractional space, any fraction less than one-half shall be disregarded, and fractions of one-half or over one-half shall require one additional parking space.

3.

The parking space requirement for a use not specifically mentioned shall be the same as required for a use of similar nature, as determined by the zoning administrator.

4.

In the case of mixed uses, the parking spaces required shall equal the sum of the requirements of the various uses computed separately.
