Parking & Loading Off-street parking is required for mixed-use buildings at a minimum of the following: • Office: 1 space for 250 sf of gross floor area = 4,666/250 = 19 spaces required • Apartments: 2 spaces per 2-bedroom apartment x 3 apartments = 6 spaces required • 25 total parking spaces are required by code • 21 parking spaces are proposed. With 2 of those parking spaces proposed to be EV make- ready spaces, the required amount of parking can be reduced by 2, to 23 spaces being required. • A variance will be required for insufficient parking. A shared parking approach may be utilized since housing is included in the mixed-use development, per §25-12.2(a)(3) of the Township Code. No off-street loading is required for residential or office uses. 4. Variances & Waivers Required It appears that the following conditions are not in compliance with the Township’s land development regulations and may require variance or design waiver relief from the Board to permit the project as proposed: Variances: a. §25-7.1 Attachment 2 Permitted Uses – Mixed uses, as well as apartment dwellings are not expressly permitted in the OB-1 district. This is an expansion of an existing non- conforming use that was previously permitted by use variance. An amendment to the d-1 use variance will be required. b. §25-7.1 Attachment 3 Lot Area per Dwelling Unit – The minimum lot area per dwelling is 6,000 s.f., where a lot area of 16,242 s.f. is proposed for three dwelling units (5,414 s.f. per dwelling unit). As this exceeds the maximum implied density of the district, this requires a d-5 density variance. c. §25-7.1 Attachment 3 Maximum Height – The maximum permitted building height is 35 feet, where the building expansion will have a height to the peak of the roof of 35’-8”, which matches the height of the existing building.
