However, parking structures and facilities, where abutting any land zoned from U-1 (A-1 or A-2) or U-2A, shall require forty feet (40') of buffering with appropriate landscape screening as required by the Commission. No off-street parking shall be permitted within the front yard setback.

(3) Parking shall be provided at the rate of at least two (2) spaces per dwelling unit with a minimum of one (1) space per dwelling unit in underground facilities at an elevation low enough so that the roof will be covered and planted with trees, shrubs or ground cover, except that a roof slab may be incorporated into paved terraces or pool areas. Garage walls shall not be exposed unless they are a part of the approved landscape design.
(4) Outside parking facilities may be open if provided with walkways and islands for trees and other landscape planning. Such facilities shall not be closer than twenty feet (20') to the main residence building.
