Section 41 of the City of Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC), Off -Street Parking Requirements discusses off-street parking <br />requirements for development projects. Sec. 41-1322 discusses the off-street parking requirements for multi -family dwellings. <br />a) The minimum off-street parking requirements for each dwelling unit in multiple -family dwellings are as follows: one (1) space in <br />a garage or carport. <br />b) Each multiple -family dwelling site shall provide off-street parking spaces, in addition to the minimum requirements of subsection <br />(a) of this section, in an amount not less than the number of bedrooms on the site. Such spaces may be open or covered and <br />may be assigned to particular units or not so assigned. Bachelor units shall be considered as one -bedroom units. <br />c) In addition to the minimum requirements of subsections (a) and (b) of this section, each multiple -family dwelling site shall provide <br />guest parking, identified as such, in an amount of spaces not less than twenty-five (25) per cent of the minimum required spaces <br />under subsections (a) and (b) of this section, but in no case less than three (3) spaces. <br />The SAMC also requires that a portion of the required off-street parking spaces be designed for physically handicapped persons.
