ZC Case No. 08-06 - Comprehensive Zoning Regulations Review: Chapters B-15, B-16 & B-17

This hearing will consider proposed text for changes to the Zoning Regulations in relation to the regulation of motor vehicle parking, bicycle parking, and loading. The proposed parking chapter provides general rules for the provision of parking spaces. This includes the creation of new rules for parking maximums and requirements for car share spaces. Since the number of minimum parking spaces required will vary by zone, the actual numbers of required spaces will be located in the zone subtitles. The loading and bicycle parking chapters contain both general requirements and a table of the number of spaces required since requirements will not vary by zone. The parking chapter contains two sections that are being advertised in the alternative. Sections 1503 and 1513.3 each have two alternatives advertised in this document. The new chapters are based upon a codification of the portion of Title 11 containing the Zoning Regulations and associated administrative rules into 10 subtitles. A description of this codification can be found at www.dczoningupdate.org/publicnotices.asp. The public should assume that the text advertised in this notice will only apply to buildings constructed pursuant to building permits issued after the effective date of the revised Title 11. More detailed information, discussion, and analysis for the proposed text can be found in the accompanying report prepared by the Office of Planning.
