Bakersfield for change in use shall be in the amount of $350 per year
for each additional required parking space in the core area and $250
per year for each additional required parking space in the extended
area for so long as such use continues, but no longer than 20 years.
For new or moved structures, the in-lieu parking fees to be paid to the
City of Bakersfield shall be in the amount of $7,000 for each required
parking space in the core area and $5,000 for each required parking
space in the extended area. The Planning Director may authorize equal
annual payments of in-lieu parking fees, with interest at 10% for any
period up to 20 years. In determining whether annual payments may be
made and the period of such payments, the Planning Director shall
consider the criteria contained in Section 17.58.030(6). An aggrieved
applicant may appeal the decision of the Planning Director as provided
in Section 17.58.030(6).
(d) In-lieu parking fees paid annually shall be due and payable
on the 10th day of January of each calendar year pursuant to an
agreement executed by the applicant and the Planning Director on behalf
of the City of Bakersfield. Failure to make the annual payment will
forfeit any payments made by the applicant for in-lieu parking fees or
the applicant's successor and will require the applicant or the appli-
cant's successor to comply with the parking provisions of Chapter
17.56. The agreement establishing the in-lieu parking fee for new or
