YAVAPAI COUNTY PLANNING AND ZONING ORDINANCE Page 136 resorts and group camps, or similar uses shall be located not farther than one thousand three hundred feet (1,300’) from the nearest point of such building or use. The Chief Land Use Specialist may authorize off-premise parking including on-street parking within three hundred feet (300’) of the associated business, as part of a development plan or proposal, in instances where use of the parking area is authorized on a long-term basis by the property owner and/or the public jurisdiction that administers public right-of-way. The Chief Land Use Specialist may deny a request to use off-premise or on-street parking in instances where authorization may be on a temporary basis and/or if the proposed off- premise parking plan is not in the interest of the public health, safety and welfare. A decision to deny a development plan or proposal may be appealed to the Board of Adjustment. C. METHODS OF PROVIDING REQUIRED OFF-STREET PARKING may be achieved by any one or a combination of the following: 1. One (1) parking area may contain required spaces for several different uses, but except as otherwise provided in this Section, the required space assigned to one use may not be credited to any other use. 2. Combination of Uses: Where there is a combination of uses on a lot, the number of automobile parking spaces shall be the sum of the requirements of the various uses. If, in the opinion of the Development Services Director, the uses would not be operated simultaneously, the number of automobile parking spaces shall be determined by the use with the highest parking demand. 3. Shared Parking: By securing the consent to use off-street parking facilities under another's ownership, which is not otherwise used or required during the principal operating hours of usage, that consent shall be in written form and a copy filed with the County Land Use Specialist. The number of parking spaces may be reduced up to a maximum of twenty percent (20%) of the total spaces required. In the event the off-site spaces are or become no longer available, the owner shall provide additional parking to meet this requirement. 4. Provisions shall be made for maintenance of common service areas by a corporation, partnership, trust or other legal entity having the right to access or place a lien upon the individual lot owners for all necessary costs and/or expenses. A letter of maintenance responsibility will be required as part of the Zoning Clearance procedure. D. DIMENSIONS AND CIRCULATION: 1. Each parking space shall contain a rectangular area at least twenty feet (20’) long and nine feet (9’) wide. Lines demarcating parking spaces may be drawn at various angles in relation to curbs or aisles, so long as the parking spaces so created contain within them the rectangular area required by this Section. 2. In parking areas containing ten (10) or more parking spaces, up to twenty percent (20%) of the parking spaces may contain a rectangular area of only seven and one-half feet (7½’) in width by fifteen feet (15’) in length. If such spaces are provided, they shall be conspicuously designated as reserved for small or compact cars only.
