B. To reduce traffic congestion and hazards;

C. To protect neighborhoods from the unwanted effects of vehicular traffic generated by adjacent non-residential land use districts;

D. To assure the maneuverability of emergency vehicles;

E. To provide aesthetically pleasing parking facilities in proportion to individual land use needs;

F. To implement comprehensive plan transportation demand management policies, thereby lowering single occupancy vehicle trip;

G. To reduce impervious parking surface through shared parking and median parking ratios;

H. To define median parking ratios and to allow a reduction or increase in parking ratios using an administrative variance;

I. To allow for more intense commercial development within predefined areas.

(Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.040 Applicability

Unless specifically exempted, every land use shall have permanently maintained off-street parking facilities pursuant to the following regulations.

EXEMPT: Land uses within the Downtown are exempt from all parking requirements; however, if parking facilities are provided they must meet required parking ratios and design standards (See figure of exempt parking, 18.38.160(D)(2).

(Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.060 Parking and loading general regulations

A. Off-street parking and loading spaces shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of this chapter when any of the following actions occur. These provisions apply to all uses and structures in all land use districts unless otherwise specified.

1. When a main or accessory building is erected.

2. When a main or accessory building is relocated or expanded.

3. When a use is changed to one requiring more or less parking or loading spaces. This also includes all occupied accessory structures.

4. When the number of stalls in an existing parking lot is decreased or increased by twenty-five (25) percent or 6 stalls, whichever is less. Only those stalls and areas proposed to be added or removed shall be subject to the provisions of this Chapter. (Note: proposed expansions of existing parking lots not subject to the minimum parking requirements of this Chapter).

B. Required Plans. Building permits shall not be approved unless there is a building plan and plot plan identifying parking and loading facilities in accordance with this chapter. No permit or city license shall be issued unless there is proof that required parking and loading facilities have been or are currently provided in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.

C. Unlawful Removal. It is unlawful to discontinue prior approved parking facilities without establishing alternate facilities that meet the requirements of this chapter. Parking and loading facilities which are adequate to meet the requirements contained in this chapter shall be provided and maintained as long as the use they serve is in existence. These facilities shall not be reduced in total unless a shared parking agreement is canceled, a change in occupancy or use of a premises has occurred which results in a reduction of required parking.

D. Use of Facility. Necessary precautions shall be taken by the property owner to ensure parking and loading facilities are only used by tenants, employees, social/business visitors or other persons for which the facilities are provided, to include shared parking.

E. Off-site Parking. Parking lots may be established as a separate and primary land use, provided the proposed parking lot exclusively serves a specific use, building or development, and shared parking. These parking lots require a conditional use permit in the Arterial Commercial district. (See 18.38.200, Parking Facility Location, for maximum off-site separation requirements.)

F. For Landscape Requirements refer to Chapter 18.36

G. Off-Street Parking--Schedule of Spaces. Off-street parking spaces shall be provided to the extent allowed by this Chapter.

H. Unlisted Uses. Any use clearly similar to any of the below-mentioned uses shall meet such use requirements. If a similarity of use is not apparent, the Site Plan Review Committee may require a parking demand study or determine the standards that should be applied to the use in question.

I. Shared Parking. The Site Plan Review Committee may require an applicant to provide proof that shared parking is infeasible when adjacent land uses or business hours of operation are different. Adjoining property owners will submit a joint letter explaining why an agreement can or cannot be reached. (See Section 18.38.180, Shared and Combined Parking Facilities.)

J. Compact Parking. No more than thirty (30) percent of total required parking may be devoted to compact cars, provided design standards in Section 18.38.220 are met.

K. On-Street Credit - Non-Residential. Upon the applicant’s request, non-residential uses located adjacent to a public right-of-way where on-street parking is permitted shall receive credit for one off-street parking space for each twenty (20) linear feet of abutting right-of-way, exclusive only of curb cuts and regardless of the actual and particular on-street parking provisions.

L. Rounding of Fractions. When the number of required parking spaces for a particular use or building results in a fractional space, any fraction less than one-half (1/2) shall be disregarded and any fraction of one-half (1/2) or over shall be counted as one (1) space.

(Ord. 6408 §24, 2006; Ord. 5714 §18, 1997; Ord. 5664 §7, 1997; Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.080 Administrative variance

A. GENERAL.

1. An administrative variance from required parking standards must be received prior to any issuance of building and engineering permits.

2. Various methods to reduce or increase parking may not be combined to reduce or increase parking by more than forty percent. In addition, any stalls gained through sharing, combining or on-site park-and-ride shall be counted toward total parking needs. For example:

Evidence is submitted to support one hundred (100) additional stalls to the five hundred (500) already require;.

Combined parking opportunity = twenty-five (25) stalls;

Twenty (20) percent administrative variance option is used = one hundred (100); additional stalls based on five hundred (500) total, but twenty-five (25) have already been found; so

The total number of stalls derived from administrative variance = seventy-five (75) stalls.

3. The project developer shall present all findings to the Site Plan Review Committee (SPRC) prior to any final, discretionary approvals; e.g., design review, site plan review, environmental review, or any planning, building or engineering permits. The SPRC shall authorize an increase in parking, based on compliance with the strategies in Section 18.38.080(C).

4. Public Notification. Property owners within three hundred (300) feet of a site shall be notified by mail of all variance requests to increase or decrease parking by twenty-one (21) to forty (40) percent.

B. CRITERIA TO REDUCE AND INCREASE PARKING.

1. Decrease in Required Parking. In addition to the following requirements, the Site Plan Review Committee may require that all or some administrative variance design requirements listed for increased parking be met (e.g., bike racks, landscaping, etc.), and require other measures to ensure all impacts associated with reduced parking are mitigated. Any motor vehicle parking spillover which can not be mitigated to the satisfaction of SPRC will serve as a basis for denial.


Decrease of 10% to 20%	Decrease of 21% to 40%
The Site Plan Review Committee may allow a 10% to 20% decrease in required parking after:	The Site Plan Review Committee may allow a 21% to 40% decrease in required parking after:

5. A report is submitted which supports the need for more parking.	5. A parking demand study is submitted, as determined by the Transportation Section, which supports the need for increased parking.

[NOTE: The total increase/decrease that is allowed is a percentage of total required parking and is only permitted after exploring other alternate means e.g., combined and shared parking, on-site park-and-ride lot, commute trip reduction, etc.]

C. PROCESS TO REDUCE AND INCREASE PARKING.

Requests to reduce parking need only follow steps 1 through 3.

1. First Step: Submit evidence that decreased/increased parking is necessary. This may take the form of a brief report for all decreases and ten (10) to twenty (20) percent increases. The SPRC may require additional studies to ensure negative impacts are properly mitigated. A more complete and detailed parking demand study is only required for increases of twenty-one (21) percent or more.

2. Second Step: Describe site characteristics, specifically:

a. Site accessibility for transit; e.g., pullouts;

b. Site proximity to transit with fifteen (15) to thirty (30) minute headways (time between buses);

c. Shared use of on-site parking for park-and-ride;

d. Shared use of off-site and adjacent parking;

e. Shared use of new proposed parking by existing or future adjacent land uses;

f. Combined on-site parking; e.g., shopping centers;

g. Employee density (one hundred (100) or more must meet state commuter trip reduction requirements);

h. Adjacent land uses.

3. Third Step: Determine if additional parking can be provided by shared and combined parking, on-site park-and-ride (install one (1) stall for two (2) stall credit), and by commute trip reduction measures.

4. Fourth Step: If additional parking is still desired, the Site Plan Review Committee may require the applicant to complete a parking cost worksheet.

5. Fifth Step: If additional parking is still desired an administrative variance is required. The site plan must meet design elements a - i below. To the extent practical, all requirements found below must be included in a project proposal to the satisfaction of the Site Plan Committee prior to approving any administrative variance to increase parking. In those instances where site constraints impede design requirements, written findings of fact shall be made identifying site and project constraints, and shall be identified in the final project approval letter. In its findings, the SPRC shall determine if a good faith effort has been made in building and site design in order to accomplish required design elements.

a. Design internal roadway, parking area, and pedestrian paths to assure access between public and private transportation facilities; access to adjacent land uses; and access within parking lots.

b. Install pedestrian amenities; e.g., walkways using textures and colors, lighting, arcades, etc.

c. Explore alternative parking lot designs in order to reduce impervious surface; e.g., one (1) way instead of two (2) way access aisles.

d. Double the amount of required interior landscape within that area of additional parking (fifty (50) percent of this requirement - if proven to be maintained - may be Grasscrete, Turfblock or other driveable pervious surface within areas receiving sporadic use: usually the farthest from the building entrance. This additional landscape area may be dispersed throughout the parking lot.

e. Ninety (90) percent of the parking lot area shall be located behind the building, without unduly compromising other objectives of this Chapter. Parking lot area along flanking streets shall have added landscape and a superior design to strengthen pedestrian qualities e.g. low walls, arcades, seating areas, public art, etc.

f. Preferential parking shall be located near primary building entrances for employees who ride-share and for high occupancy vehicles (HOVs).

g. Purchase and install a transit shelter to meet Intercity Transit operational needs unless already available within six hundred (600) feet, as measured from the middle of the property abutting the rights-of-way. This distance may be increased by Intercity Transit if located in lower density zones.

h. Construct a transit pullout if requirement in letter g above is used and if Intercity Transit finds it practical. Credit may be given for other Intercity Transit demand management strategies if a transit shelter and pullout are infeasible.

i. Create a transit/ride-share information center and place in a conspicuous location.

(Ord. 6273 §23, §24, 2003; Ord. 5539 §6, 1995; Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.100 Vehicular and bicycle parking standards

A. Required Vehicular and Bicycle Parking. A minimum number of bicycle parking spaces are required as set forth in Table 38-01 below. The specific number of motor vehicle parking spaces set forth in Table 38-01 +/- ten percent (10%) shall be provided, unless varied pursuant to OMC 18.38.080 or other provision of this code. Any change in use which requires more parking shall install vehicular and bicycle facilities pursuant to Table 38.01 and consistent with the location standards of OMC 18.38.220.

B. Building Area. All vehicle parking standards are based on the gross square feet of building area, unless otherwise noted.

C. Residential Exceptions. Residential land uses in the DB, CSH, RMH, and UR Districts require only one (1) vehicle parking space per unit.

D. Reserved Area for Bicycle Spaces. Where specified in Table 38.01 below, an area shall be designated for possible conversion to bicycle parking. Such reserve areas must meet the location requirements of short-term parking and may not be areas where pervious surfaces or landscaping is required. A cover is not required for such areas.

(Ord. 6459 §3, 2007; Ord. 6323 §8, 2004; Ord. 6195 §28, 2002; Ord. 6165 §1 & 2, 2001; Ord. 5714 §20, 1997; Ord. 5539 §9, 1995; Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.180 Shared parking facility

A. General.

The Site Plan Review Committee shall require an applicant to provide proof that shared parking is feasible when adjacent land uses have different hours of operation. Mixed use and shopping center developments with similar operating hours may also be required to submit a parking demand study to determine if parking can be combined.

1. Authority. In order to eliminate multiple entrances and exits, reduce traffic hazards, to conserve space and to promote orderly development, the Site Plan Review Committee and Hearing Examiner are each hereby authorized to plan and group cooperative parking facilities for a number of parking generators in such a manner as to obtain the maximum efficiency in parking and vehicular circulation.

2. Allocation.

a. Shared parking.

i. When two (2) or more land uses, or uses within a building, have distinctly different hours of operation (e.g., office and church), such uses may qualify for a shared parking credit. Required parking shall be based on the use that demands the greatest amount of parking.

ii. If two (2) or more land uses, or uses within a building, have different daytime hours of operation (e.g., bowling alley and auto part store), such uses may qualify for a total parking reduction of no more than fifty (50) percent.

b. Combined parking.

Two (2) or more uses which have similar hours of operation and combine parking facilities may qualify to decrease the number of parking stalls as follows. The Site Plan Review Committee may require a parking demand study to ensure sufficient parking is provided.


Two (2) uses:	Five (5) percent reduction
Three (3) uses:	Ten (10) percent reduction
Four (4) or more uses:	Fifteen (15) percent reduction

3. Location. Parking spaces provided for one use shall not be considered parking space for another use. Uses may be defined as singular, combined, or share parking.

a. Shared parking. In case there are uses in close proximity of each other that operate or are used at entirely different times of the day or week, the Site Plan Review Committee may allow shared parking facilities to satisfy the parking requirements of such uses if the parking facilities are within seven hundred (700) feet of all parking generators being served by such facilities; and

b. Combined parking. Two (2) or more uses may satisfy their parking requirements by permanently allocating the requisite number of spaces for each use in a common parking facility, cooperatively established or operated; provided, the total number of spaces conforms to the requirements in item 4 below.

4. Agreement. An agreement, lease, deed, contract or easement establishing shared use of a parking area, approved by the City Attorney, shall be submitted to the Director of Community Planning and Development and recorded with the County Auditor’s Office. For new buildings which share parking under this provision, such agreements shall run with the land for both and all properties with shared parking. Such agreement requires City approval for any change or termination. A parking agreement may be attached to a lease if additional parking is required due to a change in occupancy. This only applies in circumstances where there is existing parking and the change in use creates a deficiency.

5. Termination of Shared or Combined Use.

a. In the event that a shared or combined parking agreement is terminated, those businesses or other uses with less than the required parking shall notify the Director of Community Planning and Development within ten (10) days and take one of the following actions:

i. Provide at least fifty (50) percent of the required parking within ninety (90) days, and provide the remaining required parking within three hundred and sixty-five (365) days following the termination of the shared use; or

ii. Demonstrate, based upon a study deemed reliable by the Director of Community Planning and Development, that the available parking is sufficient to accommodate the use’s peak parking demand.

iii. Apply for and receive administrative parking variance.

b. If sufficient parking is not provided, the use, or that portion of the use out of compliance with this chapter, shall be terminated upon the expiration of the time period specified in (5)(a)(i) above. This requirement shall be established as a condition of the occupancy permit for uses relying on shared parking.

(Ord. 5714 §21, 1997; Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

18.38.200 Parking facility location

A. Parking facilities may be provided either on the same premises with the parking generator or in any parking facility, the property line of which is located within seven hundred (700) feet of the parking generator. Parking facilities may be provided further than seven hundred (700) feet from the parking generator or building if:

1. Regular shuttle service is provided;

2. A shared parking agreement is approved by the City; or

3. The parking generator is in the Downtown Business or Urban Waterfront zone and the parking facility is within 1,400 feet.

B. Where possible, surface parking lots shall be located behind a building. Where it is not possible to provide parking behind a building, parking lots may be located along the side of a building, provided that it comprises no more than fifty (50) percent of the site’s street frontage. This provision does not apply to commercial parking lots which comprise the only use of a site. In the R-4, R 4-8 and R 6-12 districts, surface parking lots for co-housing projects (not including garages) within forty (40) feet of perimeter or through streets shall not extend more than seventy-five (75) feet along the street frontage in a continuous segment (i.e., uninterrupted by a landscaped open space, garden or orchard with no dimension less than forty (40) feet; a dwelling; or common structure).

The approval authority may waive these requirements if the applicant demonstrates that these parking restrictions would not allow reasonable use of the site due to its configuration (e.g., if the site has multiple street frontages and it is impractical to meet this requirement along all frontages due to the amount or relationship of the proposed development) or other physical site constraints, or it would significantly interfere with pedestrian circulation. Where permitted in commercial districts (listed in OMC 16.06), parking areas in front of buildings should be located between buildings or adjacent to an existing parking area to enable shared parking (see Design Guidelines, Section 18.06A.030 and Section 18.06A.180(E). Also see Landscape Standards, Section 18.36.180).

FIGURE 38-3

C. High Occupancy Vehicles - Stall Location. All employers required to operate high occupancy vehicles (HOV) shall mark the closest parking spaces to the building entrance Reserved for HOV. These spaces shall not displace required handicap parking.

D. Arterial Commercial District. Employee and tenant parking in this district may be located up to one thousand (1,000) feet from the parking generator if people are required to walk between the lot and use, or up to three (3) miles if shuttle service is provided at the beginning and end of the work shift.

(Ord. 6408 §25, 2006; Ord. 5801 §5, 1998; Ord. 5664 §8, 1997; Ord. 5517 §1, 1995).

2. Ingress/Egress Requirements.

a. The Site Plan Review Committee, upon recommendation of the Public Works Director, or designee, and after appropriate traffic study, including consideration of total parcel size, frontage on thoroughfares, uses proposed and other vicinity characteristics, shall have the authority to fix the location, width and manner of approach of a vehicular ingress and egress from a building or parking area to a public street and to alter existing ingress or egress as may be required to control street traffic in the interest of public safety and general welfare.

b. Generally, but not in all cases, the internal circulation system and the ingress and egress to commercial or multifamily developments from an access street shall be so designed that the principal point of automobile cross-traffic on the street occurs at only one point--a point capable of being channelized for turning movements. Access shall be shared with adjoining parcels by placing ingress/egress points on shared lot lines, wherever safe and practical. Where parcels are bounded by more than a single street, generally, but not in all cases, access shall be provided only from the street having the lowest classification in the hierarchy of streets as established by the Public Works Director.

3. Maneuvering Areas.

a. All maneuvering areas, ramps, access drives, etc. shall be provided on the property on which the parking facility is located; however, if such facility adjoins an alley, such alley may be used as a maneuvering area. A garage or carport entered perpendicular to an alley must be located a minimum of ten (10) feet from the property line. A garage or carport entered parallel to an alley may be placed on the rear property line; provided sight distances are maintained. [NOTE: See accessory dwelling unit and structure requirements.]

b. Maneuvering areas shall be provided so that no vehicle is obliged to back out of a parking stall onto the street, except in the R-4, R 4-8, and R 6-12 use districts, or where approved by the City Engineer. [NOTE: See aisle width requirements.]

4. Parking Surface. All parking lots must be paved and designed to meet drainage requirements. Pervious surfaces (e.g., Turf Block) or other approved dust free surfaces may be used for parking areas held in reserve for future use, overflow parking (parking area furthest from building entrance), or parking areas approved by the Site Plan Review Committee. A maintenance agreement may be required to ensure such surface is properly maintained.

5. Landscaping. Parking areas shall be landscaped according to the requirements of Chapter 18.36.

6. Wheel Stop, Overhang. Appropriate wheel and bumper guards shall be provided to protect landscaped areas, to define parking spaces and to clearly separate the parking area from any abutting street rights-of-way and property lines. Vehicles may overhang landscaped areas up to two (2) feet when wheel stops or curbing is provided.

FIGURE 38-6

FIGURE 38-7

C. Bicycle Parking Design Standards.

1. A long-term bicycle parking facility shall provide for secure extended and short-term use and shall protect the entire bicycle and its components and accessories from theft and weather. Acceptable examples include, in preferred order: bike lockers; bike check-in systems; in-building parking; and limited-access fenced areas with weather protection.

To discourage improper use a bike locker door should include a see-through window or view hole. For in-building bike parking and limited access fenced areas, fixed structures for locking individual bikes, such as racks, must be provided within the facility. If such an area exceeds five (5) parking spaces, lockable clothing/gear storage lockers must also be provided within the facility. However, facilities such as factories and schools that provide personal lockers are not required to provide additional locker space for bicycle clothing/gear storage.

Exception: For retail uses under five thousand (5,000) square feet, long-term parking facilities exclusively for bicycles must only be provided only upon request of one or more employees. However, if permanent dedicated space is not provided, a sign must be posted at the primary employee entry reading "Secure Bicycle Parking Provided Upon Request - Olympia Municipal Code 18.32."

2. A short-term bicycle parking facility shall provide convenient parking with some security and weather protection. Short-term bicycle parking facilities shall include a covered stationary rack. These facilities may be shared among adjoining establishments.

Short-term bicycle parking facilities shall be located either: no further from a public entry than the nearest non-handicapped parking stall; or visible from and within one hundred (100) feet of the public entry; or within fifty (50) feet of the public entry to the building. A directional sign shall be provided if the selected location is not clearly visible from the primary entrance.

3. Each bicycle parking area shall be separated from motor vehicle parking and maneuvering areas by a barrier, post, or bollard, or by at least five (5) feet of open space. Bicycle parking spaces shall be two (2) feet by six (6) feet each, with no less than a seven (7) foot overhead clearance. A five (5) foot maneuvering aisle shall separate rows of bicycle parking spaces. Bicycle parking facilities shall not be solely accessible by stairs.

4. Bicycle racks shall be covered in such a manner as to protect the entire bicycle from rain and installed to provide adequate maneuvering space and ensure that the requisite number of bicycle parking spaces remain accessible. The rack shall be permanently affixed to the ground and support the bicycle at two (2) or more points, including at least one (1) point on the frame higher than two (2) feet from the ground. The user shall be able to lock the bicycle with a U-shaped lock or cable lock. Bicycle racks which only support a bicycle front or rear wheel are not permitted.

5. Long-term bicycle parking facilities may be substituted for short-term bicycle facilities only if the design is consistent with the purpose of short-term facilities.
