How to bypass City regulation parking ordinance zone code for Burbank, CA for business?

My friend just opened up and invested money into opening up his acupuncture clinic in Burbank, CA. He just found out due to city regulations he needs to have 22 designated parking spaces for his business. This is not possible. There are 4 designated parking spaces in back and ample parking space on the street, so this does not cause a problem for the neighborhood. Does anybody have any suggestions?
