A. Any change, redevelopment, relocation, or modification of use that will generate one or more net new trips in the peak hour shall require a capacity reservation certificate.

B. For the purposes of this chapter, an application for a development permit shall include consideration of the cumulative impacts of all development permit applications for the same or contiguous properties that are owned or under the control of the same person, firm or corporation, when one or more development permits would be issued within two years of the date of issuance of a development permit for the same or contiguous property.

C. Increased Impact on Affected Intersections. If a redevelopment or change of use shall have a greater impact on affected intersections than the previous use, then a CRC shall be required for the net increase only; provided, that the applicant provides reasonably sufficient evidence, to the satisfaction of the director, that the previous use has been continuously maintained on the site during the five-year period prior to the date of application, or since the previous use was permitted, if that period is less than five years, for the concurrency evaluation.

D. Decreased Impact on Affected Intersections. If the director determines that a redevelopment or change of use shall have a lesser impact on affected intersections than the previous use, then no concurrency evaluation shall be required. For the purpose of this subsection, “previous use” shall mean the most recent use of the site that can be evidenced by the applicant and is deemed acceptable by the director. If the director deems that sufficient evidence was not provided, then the previous use will be considered undeveloped land and no trip generation credit shall be granted pursuant to this chapter.

E. Demolition or Termination of Use. In the case of a demolition or termination of an existing structure or use, a trip generation credit shall apply to the calculated trip generation for the use prior to the demolition or termination. The number of trips allowed in the credit shall be as estimated using the ITE Trip Generation Manual, latest edition. (Ord. 3153 § 3, 2015)
