1. Minimum Total Required
This amount indicates the gross minimum number of bicycle parking spaces required.
2. Short-term parking
a. This amount, if required, shall be the minimum amount of the minimum total required parking that shall be dedicated to short-term parking.
b. Short-term parking shall be publicly accessible parking located outdoors at primary entrances of buildings or within parking structures.
3. Long-term parking
a. This amount, if required, shall be the minimum amount of the minimum total required parking that shall be dedicated to long-term parking.
b. Long-term parking is not required to be publicly accessible or located outdoors.
c. Long-term parking shall not be placed within individual dwelling units.
d. If placed outdoors, the parking facility shall be lit in accordance with storage areas (security lighting) pursuant to paragraph 7.4.3, Standards; covered to provide protection from rain and snow; and, if provided for residential uses, be located within a secured enclosure.
4. Remaining Required Parking
Remaining required parking not required to be short- or long-term parking can be provided as either type of parking at the discretion of the applicant.
Example: The minimum total required bicycle parking spaces for a 100-dwelling unit development is 50 spaces. Of the 50 spaces:
1Six short-term spaces are required (because 5% of 50 is less than six); and
2Thirty-eight long-term spaces are required (75% of 50 is 37.5 spaces, which requires rounding up to 38).
3The remaining spaces can be short- or long-term parking.
5. Small Projects
Projects that do not generate enough required bicycle parking to satisfy short and/or long term parking minimum requirements, as applicable, shall provide the minimum overall requirement as either type at the discretion of the applicant.
