Planning Commission Staff Report 5/7/2025 – Parking Regulations – Possible Zoning Code Amendments Page 4 The Mounds View Vision A Thriving Desirable Community This has been simplified in the table as: 25/k or 1/3 seats dining; + 12.5/k kitchen or 1/empl 6) Manufacturing, fabricating or processing of a product or material; warehouse, storage, handling of bulk goods This is more of an industrial use, but I included it in the analysis. This definition also includes things which are often separated: manufacturing vs. warehouse or storage. The current parking standard is as follows, which I suggest keeping, since if offers two ways to calculate – employees or floor area: At least eight spaces, plus one space for each two employees on each shift based on maximum planned employment or, at a minimum, at least eight spaces, plus one space for each 500 square feet of floor area This has been simplified in the table as: 8 + 0.5/empl or 2/1000 7) Medical, dental or hospital out-patient clinics Medical clinics often have a higher parking demand than other office uses. This is reflected in the higher parking ratios most cities require. The current Mounds View standard is either by area or by doctor: One space for each 100 square feet of net floor area or seven and one-half spaces per doctor, whichever number of parking spaces is greater Most other cities rely simply on floor area, which I recommend: Six spaces for each 1,000 square feet gross floor area Simplified in the table to: 6/1000 8) Motel, motor hotel, hotel The city’s current standard is similar to most other cites and I recommend keeping it. THE current standard is: One space per each rental unit, plus one space for each ten units and one space for each employee on any shift This has been simplified in the table as: 1.1/rm + 1/empl
