in effect

Sec. 55-739. - Bonus provisions. (a) Bicycle parking bonus. (1) A use may substitute bicycle parking for a maximum of five percent of its minimum off-street parking requirement. (2) For the purpose of calculating a permitted substitution, one completely enclosed and secure bicycle locker is the equivalent of one vehicle parking space; four spaces in a bicycle rack are the equivalent of one vehicle parking space; one bicycle repair or service station that is accessible to residents, tenants, employees, or members of the public and includes an air pump and tools to complete simple repairs is the equivalent of one vehicle parking space. (3) Bicycle parking facilities shall meet the standards defined by subsection 55-745(a) to be counted as a permitted substitution. (b) Bike-share service bonus. (1) The number of required vehicle parking spaces is reduced by two spaces for uses that provide a space for a city-approved bike-share program facility with a minimum of five bicycle docks in a location approved by the planning director and, if in the adjacent public right-of-way, also by the public works director. (c) Public transportation access bonus. (1) The off-street parking requirement for a use may be reduced by five percent if an entrance of the building having such use is within one-fourth mile of a transit stop designated by Metro Area Transit and by ten percent if an entrance of a building having such use is within 300 feet of a transit stop designated by Metro Area Transit. (2) This public transit access bonus provision shall apply only if there is a reasonably direct and accessible pedestrian route provided between the building entrance for the use in question and the adjacent street that is nearest to where the transit stop is located. (3) This public transit access bonus provision shall not apply in any TOD transit oriented development districts. (Code 1980, § 55-739; Ord. No. 42341, § 9, 10-27-20)
