The text
The purpose of the parking and loading requirements identified in this Chapter 19.21 is to ensure that all land uses in the city provide adequate off-street parking facilities, loading areas, and vehicle movement area associated with a use. The intent of these regulations is to ensure that the use of land does not interfere adversely with the circulation of public rights-of-way, that private on-site circulation does not pose a potential safety issue, and that surrounding uses are insulated from the noise and traffic impacts associated with off-street parking and loading activities.
