| | | | | | | | | RE: | Ordinance No. 2023-10 (First Reading) Handicapped Parking Space Dimensions Amendment (Edward Ng, AICP, Interim Community Development Director) |
|
| | | | | | | | Description
| | BACKGROUND ANALYSIS:
| Per ZLDC. Section 24-93(C) Parking Lot Design Standards, indicate that the required length for a handicapped parking stall is 20’ feet and the required width for ADA (The Americans with Disabilities Act) parking stall shall be 12’ feet. The current 20’ feet handicapped parking stall length according to Section 24-93(C)(2)(a) is not an essential requirement and creates an incoherent design for off street parking locations.
The proposed ADA length reduction to a new 18’ feet length maintains consistency with ADA (The Americans with Disabilities Act) parking stall requirements and other sections of the Zoning and Land Development Code of the City of North Miami Beach Code of Ordinances. | RECOMMENDATION:
| The Planning and Zoning Board considered this item at a public meeting on September 11, 2023, and voted 4 to 1 recommending approval of the proposed text amendment, finding the request and approval thereof is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and meets the criteria set forth in the ZLDC. | FISCAL/ BUDGETARY IMPACT:
