0RDAI N AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That Section 9112.7 of the Santa Aha Municipal Code
is hereby amended to read as follows:
SECTION 9112.7 -PK (District ~arking Requirement).
Any District or any part thereof regulating the use of
land established under this Part, may be modified at the time
the ~ning is first established or by amendment, by adding to
the District designation, "-PK" which shall make no altera-
tion in the uses per~mitted under the regular District Classi-
fication excepting that: In any District modified by being
combined with -PK (District Parking Requirement) each use
shall be required to maintain a minimum of one-third of the
total land space involved in such use for off-street parking,
and no use shall be altered, modified or enlarged so as to
reduce the net off-street parking area maintained in conjunc-
tion with such use 'below one-third of said total land area,
nor shall any commercial or professional use be structurally
enlarged so as to create an additional off-street parking de-
mand in that area unless all of the demands of the District
Parking Requirement are complied ~th.
Any person erecting a residence in a District modified by
being combined with -PK, after the date of adoption of this
Ordinsnce, shall be required to provide and retain a minimum
of one-third of the total land space involved in such resid-
ential use available for off-street parking, except that such
area need not meet the requirements of paving, blacktopping
or fencing. Any residenti~ use in a District modified by
being combined with -PK, whether or not such use existed prior
to the -PK requirement, sh~ll not be converted to a commercial
or professional use unless and until all dem~ds of the Dis-
tract Parking Require~nent are complied with.
The total land space involved in auy use as herein referred
to may consist of two or more co-terminus lots, whether said
lots be side by side or facing on different streets and have
common rear lot lines or are separated only by an alley, and
further provided that said separate lots have the same record
ownership. The record owner together with any encumbrancer or
lessee of record, may record with the County Recorder, a declar-
ation that two or more lots or parts thereof shall thereafter
be devoted to a unit use au d wi ll mot be separated by sale or
alienation in such a way as to reduce the area for off-street
parking below one-third of the total l~d area covered by
buildings, outdoor displays, or other surface use of said land.
After such recording, no building permit shall be issued
affecting any portion of said property if the transfer of title
has reduced the off-street parring area below said one-third
of the total as herein provided for and no person shall trans-
fer any title that so reduces the total off-street parking area.
If the total Land space involved in any use consists of two
or mo~e lots fronting on parallel streets with common rear lot
lines or separated only by an alley, then in that event, the
rear yard requirement shall not affect said property after the
recording declaring a unit use of said property as herein pro-
vided for.
Said parking areas shall be afforded access to a public street
Or alley and driveways to and from the parking area shall not
be included in the required one-third of total herein provided
for. Said parking area shall be blacktopped or paved with
concrete surfacing, landscaped, and where it abuts p~operty of
a more restrictive classification or use th~ the classification
in the general District or a Residence District, it shall be
fenced with solid fencing to a height of not less than 5 feet
unless a fence in excess of 4 feet be prohibited by this Code.

after the date of its adoption.
