The use of proportion in parking requirements can vary depending on the type of development and location. For example, in urban areas, parking requirements may be based on a proportion of the total building or site area, with a higher proportion for commercial developments than residential. In suburban or rural areas, parking requirements may be based on the number of parking spots per unit or per square footage of retail space. Additionally, the type of development can impact parking requirements, with larger projects such as shopping malls requiring a higher proportion of parking spaces than smaller retail shops. Alternatively, some developments may have shared parking agreements, where multiple businesses or residences share parking spaces, leading to a lower overall parking requirement. Overall, the use of proportion in parking requirements varies depending on the context and needs of the development.
