Re: Parking requirements for NAPA Auto Parts, and Walt’s Tire, SPR-03-8352-YL
Dear Mike & Bill:
Thank you for meeting with the Community Development Department on Friday, January 27, 2006.
After reviewing the information that you presented to us, we will accept the following changes to the land use approval.
Per your information, 40% of the NAPA auto parts store is storage and wholesale. 60% of the store is retail. The revised parking requirements for Napa are:
2520 sq. ft. / 400 (1 stall per 400 sq. ft.) = 6.3 stalls + 1 delivery vehicle
3780 sq. ft. / 250 (1 stall per 250 sq. ft.) = 15.12 for a total of 22 stalls required for NAPA.
The tire store requires a minimum of 8 stalls, creating a total minimum requirement of 30 off-street parking stalls.
Please keep in mind that Section 17.72.030 Yelm Municipal Code states that “The requirements for off-street parking and loading facilities and their design shall be regarded as the minimum;
however, the owner, developer or operator of the premises for which the parking facilities are intended shall be responsible for providing adequate amounts and arrangement of space for
the particular premises even though such space or its arrangement is in excess of the minimum set forth.
If you have any further questions, please contact me at (360) 458-8496.
Sincerely,
Tami Merriman
Assistant Planner
