Memo <br /> <br />To: <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Date: <br />Re: <br /> <br />Board of Commissioners <br /> <br />Rodger Lentz, Planning Manager <br /> <br />08/07/02 <br /> <br />Proposed amendment to required parking standards <br /> <br />In June, the developers of the Kings Grant Corporate Center requested that the County amend its <br />parking space standards to permit more flexibility in the number of spaces required. Staff shared the <br />standards used in the UDO and they felt that the adoption of those standards would meet their needs. <br /> <br />Attached are a copy of the current County requirements and a copy of the proposed standards. The <br />proposed standards are in use by Harrisburg, Mount Pleasant, Kannapolis, and Concord. Staff <br />recommends that the County adopt the proposed standards as presented. <br /> <br />Staff also recommends that the following statement be added to Section 10-7, "For uses that may <br />require parking spaces above the maximum vehicle space standard, justification for such shall be <br />presented to the Administrator. The Administrator shall review such justification and make a <br />determination to grant or deny the request. Information to be considered includes, type and size of use, <br />the number of employees, and impact of potential special events. A denial of a request to exceed the <br />maximum vehicle spaces may be appealed to the Board of Adjustment." <br /> <br />By unanimous vote, the changes were recommended for approval by the Cabarrus County Planning <br />and Zoning Board on July 18, 2002. <br /> <br />® Page 1 F-~,~ <br /> <br /> <br />
