Los Angeles Municipal Code

SEC. 13.15. "MPR" MODIFIED PARKING REQUIREMENT DISTRICT.

ctive than those required in Paragraph 12.21 A.4. of this Code. The ordinance creating the District shall identify each use that is assigned increased parking requirements, along with each use’s new parking requirement. Otherwise, the number of required spaces shall be governed by Section 12.21 A.4. Before adopting any ordinance creating an MPR District that includes Increased Parking Requirements, the City Council must find that: a. There is a lack of transit service in the area; or b. There is a high potential for spillover parking impacts on adjacent residential areas; or c. There is a low probability that parking management programs, transportation demand management programs, or public parking facilities will be available or effective in the area. 6. Commercial Parking Credits. An MPR District may authorize parking requirements to be satisfied through the creation of a parking credit program. The number of available parking credits shall be established by a survey that identifies the number of underutilized public parking spaces available within the District at various times of the day. The ordinance creating the District shall list the number of credits available in the area, and the number of credits required to support a specific use for various times of the day. 7. Maximum Parking Requirements. An MPR District may establish maximum parking requirements. The ordinance creating the District shall set forth each use for which maximum parking requirements apply, as well as the specific parking limits for that use. Otherwise, the parking requirements set forth in Section 12.21 A.4. shall apply. E. Applicability of Modified Parking Strategies to Residential Uses. This Section shall apply to lots where the zoning regulations permit multi-residential uses as follows: 1. An MPR District shall not authorize any of the strategies listed above, except for the strategies described in Subsections D.5. and D.6., for any lot that contained a residential use subject to the Rent Stabilization Ordinance, or that contained any Restricted Affordable units within the five years preceding the adoption of the MPR District. Required parking on such properties, however, may be reduced pursuant to Sections 12.22 A.37., 12.22 A.38., or 12.22 A.39. of this Code, or pursuant to any other applicable affordable housing incentive program.
