The term “parking facility” is used Section 208.2
instead of the term “parking lot” so that it is clear that both parking lots and parking
structures are required to comply with this section.
The number of parking spaces required
to be accessible is to be calculated separately for each parking facility; the required number
is not to be based on the total number of parking spaces provided in all of the parking
facilities provided on the site.
