AGENDA ITEM NO. S: Discussion " of parking requirements for. , industrial development. (94-8Q2); . Senior Planner Kuenzel :informed the Commission that.the: Zoning Ordinance._curreritly .does not; . ", '~ include a parking. requirement for industrial uses. When uses are proposed that are noteon the: Section 9 list, the" Ordinance gives. the Commission the authority to assign a parking requirerrient. Recently, for. example, the Comrriission <set the parking requirement" for " he Texas Digital expansion and for" ;the Putt-Putt Golf expansion. During recent ..:discussions, aeveral commissioners expressed a reluctance to set parking, requirements on a. case-by-case basis :due to possible inequity in the cost of site improvements from one developer to another.. In other words,, it seems that the Commission preferred =an ordinance amendment ;that would apply a reasonable standard to any industrial use. For most .,uses; setting a parking Yequrement'is relatively easy because land uses are fairly similar in the parking demand generated. A fast food'restaurant'in `" Detroit, for .example, needs about as much parking as a restaurant in College Station. It seems fair, to require parking in relation to the parking needed, which for many: uses: can be.determined through studies. And it seems more enforceable to have a parking" requirement based on square footage, which cannot change easily without detection or without a requiredpermittng process. ,' However,. industrial uses have a wide range offunctions and associated'space.-needs. 'The number ofemployees per square foot can change from one company" to another, or within"the-same company from one year to another. There is also a prevalent sentiment that. many of the larger, established industrial firms (especially research: and 'development firms)'should be allowed to sef- their own parking number soahat f hey may stimulate usage of alternative modes"of transportation.
