Presenter flags 1964 exemption as a complicating factor in tracking parking outcomes
Summary
Staff said determining when the 1964 exemption applied required historical zoning research for many projects and flagged those instances in the tracking sheet, creating uncertainty in some comparisons between prior and current parking requirements.
Natalie told the board that applying the 1964 exemption often required searching historical zoning and land‑use records to determine what parking requirement applied in 1964; when that record was unclear the team flagged the project in the tracking sheet rather than make an uncertain calculation.
She said where the exemption applied the prior requirement could be zero or otherwise very different, which makes some project‑level comparisons ambiguous. Board members agreed that the tracking sheet should clearly annotate these cases so Council reviewers understand where historical data are incomplete.
