For the purpose of Article 3.1.2.2 of this By-law, a warehouse/distribution facility,
wholesaling facility (multiple-occupancy building) is a building(s) occupied by more
than one occupant located on one lot, where the primary function of all occupants is

3.1.2.4
Mixed Use Development Shared Parking
A shared parking formula may be used for the calculation of required parking for a mixed
use development. A mixed use development means the following:
(0379-2009), (0174-2017), (0018-2021), (0117-2022)
(1)
Non-office uses in an office or medical office building or group of buildings on
the same lot;
(2)
Office or medical office space in a building or group of buildings on the same
lot primarily occupied by retail uses;
(3)
A building or group of buildings on the same lot containing a mix of office or
medical office, commercial uses and dwelling units;
(4)
Non-residential uses in an apartment.
Shared parking is to be calculated in compliance with Table 3.1.2.4 - Mixed Use
Development Shared Parking Formula.
The initial step in determining required parking for a mixed use development is to
calculate the parking requirement for each use in the development as if these uses were
free-standing buildings. The parking requirement for each use is then multiplied by the
percent of the peak period for each time period (i.e. noon), contained in Table 3.1.2.4 -
Mixed Use Development Shared Parking Formula. Each column is totalled for weekday
and weekend. The highest figure obtained from all time periods shall become the
required parking for the mixed use development.
