Parking Sufficiency
SRMC 11.70.060(B): Parking sufficiency. Seventy percent (70%) of on-street parking on any
three-block average (the streetary location’s block and one block in either direction) must
remain available for vehicles at any given time. The director may make an exception if the
entrance to a public parking garage or lot is within 300 feet of the streetary location.
Adjacency to Storefront
SRMC 11.70.050(B): Streetaries are only permitted in the parking spaces within the right-
of-way directly adjacent to the food service establishment street frontage.
SRMC 11.70.060(C): Adjacency to storefront. Streetaries may only be permitted in parking
spaces within the right-of-way that are directly in front of the permittee’s food service
establishment business. If a food service establishment fronts more than one but less than
two parking spaces and fronts more than fifty percent (50%) of the second parking space,
the permittee is eligible to apply for two parking spaces for use as a streetary.
Adjacency to Storefront - Shared Streetaries
A streetary shared by two businesses shall not exceed the frontage for the combined businesses.
Adjacency to Storefront Exception - Existing Streetaries
Existing streetaries operating as of the effective date of the Streetary Ordinance will be
permitted to continue to operate at their existing location, provided that all of the following
conditions are met: i) the Streetary in its current condition is in substantial compliance with the
Ordinance and Standards; ii) the Streetary does not require a new Building Permit; iii) the
Streetary does not require and is not proposing significant modifications; iv) some portion of
the Streetary is directly in front of the permittee’s food service establishment business; v) the
Streetary does not use more than two parking spaces (or the maximum allowable for shared
streetaries); and vi) pursuant to SRMC 11.70.080(D), the Director of Public Works has
determined that the Streetary will not be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals,
comfort or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood or injurious to
property and improvements in the neighborhood. This exception only applies to granting
exceptions to the “adjacency to storefront” requirements under SRMC 11.70.050(B) and SRMC
11.70.060(C) and no other standards.
B. Streetary Setback Criteria
Required Streetary Buffers – Travel Lane Setbacks
SRMC 11.70.060(D): Travel lane setback. Streetaries shall have an eighteen inch (18”)
minimum setback from the travel lane measured from the parking striping adjacent to the
travel lane. In cases where no striping exists, the maximum length of the streetary
measured from the face of the curb shall be determined by the director or their designee.
