• CITY OF RAMSEY PARKING REQUIREMENTS Parking Requirements&Shared Parking Development shall provide the number of parking spaces according to the standards below.Parking requirements are based on a building's net floor area(gross floor area minus shared space for circulation and mechanical uses).

The Urban Land Institute's Shared Parking Standards(cited below),or equivalent,shall be used to calculate the total number of shared parking spaces. To determine shared parking demand,two or more uses would be added for each hour of the day,for both weekdays and for Saturdays,to see which hour produces the highest parking demand. The following steps shall be used to determine the required minimum number of spaces for mixed-use areas. 1. Note the peak hour demand(above)parking space requirements for each individual land use. 2. Determine the parking demand for each individual land use for given times,i.e. weekdays and Saturdays at 10 AM,1 PM, 4 PM,8 PM,and 10 PM. 3. Determine the aggregate parking demand for these given times by summing the demand of the various land uses for each given time. 4. Determine the minimum shared parking space requirement by noting the largest of the aggregate parking demand figures.On-street parking spaces shall be used to help meet this requirement. For more information,see the Urban Land Institute's 1983 publication,Shared Parking,and the Institute of Transportation Engineer's Shared Parking Planning Guidelines. • SEPTEMBER2002 • 25
