Total Parking: Required: 60 Stalls / Proposed: 120 Stalls <br /> The applicant is proposing a building that will be 90% <br /> warehouse and 10%office,therefore, 60 stalls are required for <br /> the 48,000 square foot building. One stall is required for each <br /> 1,000 square feet of warehouse space and one stall for each 200 <br /> square feet of office space, minus 10%. <br /> However,the number of parking spaces provided(120) is <br /> consistent with the other facilities within the Lakeview Business <br /> Center,which are typically 40%office and 60%warehouse. <br /> Under the 40/60 office to warehouse ratio, the proposed building <br /> would need 112 spaces.
