Title

SUBSTITUTE: Amending Chapter 28 of the Madison General Ordinances to Clarify Various Underground and Site Parking Requirements.

Body

DRAFTER’S ANALYSIS:    This proposed ordinance change clarifies the existing parking requirements city-wide in order to make the City of Madison Zoning Code (Chapter 28) more user-friendly. Throughout Chapter 28, there are references to where parking can be located on a site but without cross-referencing other sections it may be unclear to the reader. This change clarifies all instances in the code where a provision in the code was intended to be specific to surface parking and adds “surface” to the definition of “Parking Lot.” It adds consistent language in various parts in the code where surface parking is not allowed between the building and a street and clarifies how primary street is determined on lots with multiple street frontages by adding a definition for primary street.

 

The Substitute fixes grammatical errors but does not make substantive changes.
