Doesn't look sane at present. You have combined one public parking
area with two private ones. If they're all private, for use by the
restaurant, mark them all as private.
Oh, right, I keep forgetting about that. They're all notionally "the
Chili's parking lot", but people use the back lot as overflow parking
for other nearby locations (e.g. the office building to the immediate
northeast). I'm sure they'd get annoyed at someone taking their "prime"
spaces for that purpose, but I haven't observed them caring about folks
in the far end of the back lot.
Maybe this is an argument for a site, instead?
OTOH, now we can rehash the access=destination discussion given that
(most of¹) the lot isn't *explicitly* signed "customers only" and yet
that's obviously the intent.
(¹ I would argue that the 'carry-out only' spaces qualify as 'customers
only'.)
Even so, is a multipolygon giving any information that couldn't be had
by separate parking areas with the appropriate operator tag?
As I understand it, the operator tag is more of a legal thing (which I
honestly wonder why or *how* we map) and not so much an "associated with
such-and-such building" tag. Accordingly, it is clear as mud how I'm
supposed to apply that tag.
(BTW, is there any accepted way to tag a 'carry-out only' space?)
If you're talking about one (or both) of those parking areas by the
restaurant, then it is (or they are) not really a parking area.
Only specific parking spaces² are carry-out only. The lot as a whole —
and I would expect most people to consider it *one* lot³ — contains a
mix of several types of parking spaces, distinguished only by marking
and/or signage. I think it would be odd to specifically carve out the
carry-out-only spaces from the rest of the lot.
IMHO there should be a way to tag that a lot contains such spaces.
(² IMHO, any reasonable person is going to consider them parking spaces,
even if they are implicitly limited to a very short time. On which note,
'15 minute parking' spaces are also quite common, at least in my area.)
(³ Possibly, as I've drawn it, three lots, or anyway three clearly
different 'sections' of something which conceptually is a single lot.)
