Interpretation of Standards. In interpreting the parking standards set forth in this article, the following rules shall govern: (1) Wherever required off - street parking is based upon gross floor area, the number of required spaces shall be determined by applying the appropriate mathematical ratio. If the product is not a whole number, the number of required spaces shall be the next lower natural number if the decimal fraction is less than five - tenths (0.5) or the next higher natural number if the decimal fraction is five - tenths (0.5) or more. Wherever required off - street parking is based upon some other factor, the number of required spaces shall be determined by the same arithmetical process. (2) Wherever two (2) or more uses identified in this article exist on the same site or within the same building: a. The number of parking spaces required for each use shall be determined separately. b. Except as provided in sections 4.1 -1390 and 41 -1391, ancillary activities or uses within a single tenant space not exceeding fifteen (15) percent of the gross floor area shall be calculated at the parking ratio of the primary use. (3) Wherever a particular use of property can be classified under more than one (1) section of this article which sets minimum parking space requirements, the section which contains the more specific use description shall apply. If two (2) or more equally specific sections apply, the section imposing the higher standard shall apply. (4) Wherever required parking is based upon the number of seats in an area, eighteen (18) inches of bench space shall be deemed the equivalent of one (1) seat.
