(1) Except as hereinafter provided, all parking spaces for single-family or multiple-family dwelling units and apartment buildings shall be located in the rear half of the lot.
(2) Where parking spaces are enclosed within the main structure or a garage, the enclosure shall not be located nearer to the street line than the building setback line as provided for in the zoning code.
(B) Size. A required off-street parking space shall be at least nine feet in width and at least 20 feet in length, exclusive of access drives, aisles, ramps and columns. The space shall have a vertical clearance of at least seven feet.
(C) Access. Each required off-street parking space shall open directly upon an aisle or driveway of such width and design as to provide safe and efficient means of vehicular access to the parking space. The aisle or driveway shall be accessible to a street or alley and located to least interfere with traffic movements.
