Carmen S. Annunziato

RE:

Shared Parking Allocation
Section 11-H(13) of Appendix A, Zoning, contains the following
provision for shared parking:
Parking spaces required in this ordinance for one use or
structure may be allocated in part or in whole for the required
parking spaces of another use or structure if quantitative
evidence is provided showing that parking demand for the
different uses or structures would occur on different days of the
week or at different hours. Quantitative evidence shall include
estimates for peak hour/peak season parking demand based on
statistical data furnished by the Urban Land Institute or an
equivalent traffic engineering or land planning and design
organization. Quantitative evidence may also include, where
appropriate, field studies and traffic counts prepared by a
traffic consultant experienced in the preparation of parking
studies. In addition, a minimum buffer of ten (10) percent shall
be provided to ensure that a sufficient number of parking spaces
are available at the peak hour/peak season of parking demand.
Calculation of said buffer shall be based on the total number of
parking spaces determined to be required at the peak hour/peak
season of parking demand. Evidence for joint allocation of
required parking space shall be submitted to the Technical Review
Board, and approval of joint allocation of required parking
spaces shall be made by the City Commission, after review and
recommendations by the planning and zoning Board.
With respect to the above, Glen Harris of Peacock and Lewis
Architects and Planners, Inc., agent for St. Joseph's Episcopal
Church, is requesting approval of a shared parking allocation in
connection with a request for site plan approval to allow for the
addition of a 4,350 square foot fellowship hall. St. Joseph's
Episcopal Church is located south of Mission Hill Road, between
South Seacrest Boulevard and Swinton Avenue.
The City's Parking Lot Regulations require that "in the instance
of a parking lot serving an existing building or group of
...
buildings where said building or group of buildings is/are to be
enlarged, the entire parking lot shall be modified to meet the
requirements of this article." In connection with the request
for approval of the fellowship hall, the applicant is also
requesting approval of a revised parking lot plan in order to
meet the design and landscape requirements specified in the
Parking Lot Regulations. The existing parking lot is
non-conforming with respect to the current Parking Lot
Regulations. The revised parking lot plan provides for 133
parking spaces, which is the same number that currently exists on
site.
With regard to the number of parking spaces required by the
Zoning Regulations for the church site. the requirement is listed
in Section 11-H(16)(b)(1) of Appendix A, Zoning, which reads as
follows:
Churches, temples, and other places of worship: One (1)
parking space per four (4) seats in the auditorium, but not
less than one (1) parking space per one hundred (100) square
feet of gross floor area for the auditorium, plus required
parking spaces for any other principal uses, including
offices, classrooms, meeting rooms, recreation facilities
and dwellings.
The church sanctuary contains 300 seats (not 150 as noted on the
site plan application) requiring the provision of 75 parking
spaces (1 parking space for every 4 seats). Based on information
submitted by Glen Harris, including but not limited to the
attached correspondence, the Planning Department has determined
that in addition to the church, the school facilities, the parish
hall and the proposed fellowship hall function as principal uses
and would require the provision of additional parking spaces.
All other uses listed in the attached correspondence were deemed
to be accessory uses to the church and/or school functions. In
accordance with Section 11-H(16)(c)(5) of Appendix A, Zoning, the
parking requirement for the school (pre-kindergarten through "
grade 8) is one parking space per 500 square feet of gross floor
area. The school classroom and administration facilities occupy
approximately 11,648 square feet of gross floor area. The
parking requirement for the school is 11,648 divided by 500
equals 24 parking spaces. In accordance with Section
11-H(16)(b)(2) of Appendix A, Zoning, the parking requirement for
the parish hall and fellowship hall is one parking space per 100
square feet of gross floor area. The parish hail occupies
approximately 4,311 square feet. The parking requirement for the
parish hall is 4,311 divided by 100 equals 44 parking spaces.
The proposed fellowship hall occupies approximately 4,350 square
feet. The parking requirement for the fellowShip hall is 4,350
divided by 100 equals 44 parking spaces. The total combined
parking requirement for all principal uses (excluding the
residence which has separate parking spaces) is as follows:
~
The documentation submitted by Glen Harris, including the
schedule of activities, indicates that the church sanctuary is
primarily used for services on Sundays and that the school
operates on weekdays. certain other ancillary uses occur on
saturdays and weekdays, during the daytime and evening hours.
with respect to Section 11-H(13) of Appendix A, Zoning, provision
for shared parking, the applicant is seeking to quantify in this
particular instance that the "parking demand for different uses
(principal uses) occurs on different days of the week." There is
no buffer calculation required in this instance because there is
no overlap of the Sunday mass with the weekday school functions.
On Tuesday, October 4, 1988, the Technical Review Board met and
recommended aproval of the shared parking allocation based on the
documentation submitted. It was the consensus of the Technical
Review Board that there is sufficient on-site parking to
accomodate the Sunday church masses and the weekday school
function, as well as the related weekly, ancillary uses.
