Duluth UDC Table 4-B
Minimum Parking Spaces by Use

Verified. Every cell compared against rendered pp139-141 on 2026-08-17. Ten cells in the parking-spaces column had stacked values glued into one number by the superscript fold ("20" over "18" stored as "1820"); the extractor was fixed and all ten re-checked against the render. Stacked values pair line-by-line with the "Required for Each" lines beside them. Rows 0, 9, 38 and 44 are section bands (a. RESIDENTIAL etc.); row 23 "14. Shopping Centers:" is a sub-heading whose (a)-(e) children are subordinate only by numbering. Superscript footnote markers flatten to trailing digits ("sf1", "GFA2", "GLA3" -- the footnote texts are printed on p140). "1000 sf" without a comma in the Daycare row and the "400,000-599,000" range are the source's own inconsistencies, reproduced as printed.
