Subject: 48 Ash - Parking - Nonresidential uses in commercial and mixed-use districts.
Susan,
Patrick and I have reviewed the parking requirements in regard to the ZBA board members discussion.
As I noted earlier, if the applicant has provided evidence of exemptions to parking requirements in
accordance to Section 10.6.A.3;
For nonresidential uses in the commercial and mixed-use districts, on-street parking
spaces located along the front or side lot line may be counted toward required off-street
parking spaces for commercial uses. New on-street parking spaces may also be created to
count toward required off-street parking but must be located along the corner side or front
lot line.
This is not included in the Zoning Determination Denial, but the ZBA can incorporate it into the
resolution. Additionally, Patrick has noted that the two single-family dwelling units are not required to
include an accessible off-street parking space as per Table 10-C. However, a parking structure designed
for four or more dwelling units would necessitate an ADA-compliant parking space. He has suggested,
the planning board retains the authority to mandate such a provision for the commercial space during the
site plan review and approval process, if they choose.
Respectfully,
Richard Roman
