22.50.020 Vehicle parking.
A. Rules for Computing Number of Parking Spaces—Shown in Table 22.50-2.The number of required
off-street parking spaces shall be based on the following:
I. "Floor area" shall mean the gross square feet of the specific use.
2. Where fractional spaces result, the parking spaces required shall be constructed to the nearest
whole number.
3.Uses not specified in Table 22.50-2 shall provide parking based on a use of similar nature;
4.New Construction. Prior to occupancy of a new structure within any zoning district, off-street
vehicle parking shall be provided in accordance with Table 22.50-2.
Ordinance 09-010 Page 18 of 22
5. Expansion of Existing Use. Prior to occupancy of an expanded (enlarged) floor area, off-street
vehicle parking shall be provided in accordance with Table 22.50-2 based on the expanded square
footage.
6. Change of Use. If the minimum number of vehicle parking spaces required for the change of
use added to the existing on-site parking supply falls short of the minimum number of vehicle parking
spaces required for the project as a whole, the applicant shall provide additional spaces to bring the total
supply up to the minimum required.
7. In the case of multiple-use occupancies, other than shopping centers, in a building or on a lot,
the total requirement for off-street parking shall be the sum of the requirements for the various uses
computed separately.
8. Tandem spaces shall not count as required parking.
9. All parking maneuvering and loading areas shall be paved.
B. Location of parking spaces,except as follows:
1.For nonresidential uses, required off-street parking shall be located in the same zone or in a
zone which allows the use for which the parking is required.
2. All parking spaces required herein shall be located on the same parcel with the building or use
served unless:
a. The parking is located on a contiguous parcel or parcels under the same ownership and
title notice is filed identifying the parking serving the other building or use; or
b. If the required parking for a building or use is located on a parcel(s) other than described
in subsection (B)(l) of this section, the owner of the parcel upon which the proposed parking is located
executes a joint parking agreement in a form acceptable to the city attorney, stating that the parcel is
devoted in whole or in part to required parking for the use of a parcel or parcels under separate ownership.
The agreement shall be binding on both properties and shall be recorded with the Spokane County
auditor's office and filed with the Spokane Valley department of community development;
c. Where shared parking is proposed, the minimum number of parking spaces for all shared
uses shown on Table 22.50-2 shall be calculated. When these totals are applied to the percentages shown
on Table 22.50-1, the minimum number of parking spaces required is the largest sum of the individual
totals for each time period.
d. Parking not provided on the same site as the use or structure shall not be separated from
the use or building by a street designated as an arterial.
22.110.030 Permit required.
A. Other than for those uses listed in subsection B of this section, a sign permit is required for all
