T5 Parking and Landscape Standards

PARKING
This illustration demonstrates the parking requirements for a T5 zone. The commercial activities and mixed uses encouraged in this transect also require a wider array of parking and loading standards and more regulation to ensure that all these uses co-exist in a manner that enhances quality of life for residents, business owners, and visitors. Examples of these regulations are parking liners for parking lots to encourage pedestrian activity and that loading docks be located within the third layer of the property, concealed from public view.
