(6) Computation. When determination of the number of
off-street parking spaces required by this division
results in a requirement of a fractional space, the

and a fraction in excess of one-half shall be
counted as one parking space.
(7) Collective provisions. Off-street parking facilities
for separate uses may be provided collectively if

buildings or uses shall be located on the same
zoning lot or in the same zoning district as such
building or use, except that such parking spaces
may be provided in an adjacent zoning district if
such district allows parking lots or parking
garages as a permitted use. But in no instance
shall required off-street parking be located more
than six hundred (600) feet (as measured along
lines of public access) from the use which it
serves.

determining the required number of off-street
parking spaces for apartment houses, lodging,
