As discussed with City staff,we are requesting alternative compliance by counting the 32-parallel bulb
out stalls toward the single-family home parking stall number and by having an excess of open space
and amenities. See the attached bulb out stall exhibit. The bulb out stalls are 9' wide by 23' long. There
are 23 total bulb out stalls and they are located in close proximity to single family units that are deficient
in parking.
