1. Shared parking or mixed-use developments. Notwithstanding the normal provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2, where two or more activities or uses provide the required parking or loading in a common parking facility or loading area, the number of parking spaces or loading bays ordinarily required may be reduced below the sum of the spaces or bays required for the separate activities or uses, if it can be demonstrated that the hours, days, or peak parking or loading demand for the uses are so different that a lower total will provide adequately for all uses or activities served by the parking facility or loading bay, and that the location of the parking facility in relation to the uses proposed to be served by it is appropriate. A special permit authorizing such deviation from the normal standard shall only be granted upon the submission of calculated parking demand for combined land uses based on methodologies and indices of the Institute of Transportation Engineers, Urban Land Institute, -25- or other recognized methodology approved in writing by the Zoning Board or its representative. The parties must sign a joint use agreement.
