(e) Design and maintenance:

or enclosed in a building.

asphalt or concrete. As an alternative to asphalt or concrete, off-street parking spaces,

access drives and aisles may be surfaced with alternative methods of paving, provided that

by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Kansas and reviewed and approved by

= requirement of six (6) or fewer spaces or any permitted use in the A-I agricultural, 1-2 or 1-

aisles or parking spaces.
(6) Computation. In the event multiple uses occupy a single structure or parcel of land, the
total requirements of off-street parking shall be the sum of the requirements of the multiple
uses computed separately. When determination of the number of off-street parking spaces
required by this division results in a requirement of a fractional space, the fraction of one-
half or less may be disregarded, and a fraction in excess of one-half shall be counted as one
(1) parking space.
(7) Collective and joint use provisions. One (1) off-street parking area may serve several
different uses provided the area contains the total required spaces for all uses. In addition,
different uses may make joint use of the same parking spaces provided written assurances
are given that such uses operate at different or nonconflicting times. All regulations
covering the location of accessory parking spaces in relation to the uses served shall be
adhered to.
(8) Location. All parking spaces required to serve 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.
(9) Employee parking. Parking spaces required on an employee basis shall be based on the
maximum number of employees on duty or residing, or expected to be on duty or residing,
or both, on the premises at any one (1) time, at the same time as the building permit is
issued.
(10) Maximum number of spaces. The total number of accessory parking spaces provided for a
single-family, a two-family or multiple-family dwelling shall not exceed that required by
this division, for such use or for any equivalent new use by more than fifty (50) percent or
four (4) spaces, whichever number is greater.
cc
H (11) Exempt zone. Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, no accessory off-street
parking facilities shall be required for any structure in the C-4 central business districts
except residences, and those uses specifically required to provide parking.
(12) Determination of required spaces. When determining the required number of off-street
parking spaces for apartment houses, lodging, boarding or rooming houses, fraternities,
sororities, and dormitories, an occupant shall mean an individual separate and distinct from
