The following access management requirements shall apply to all new development and redevelopment projects in the Municipality of Carlisle:
(a) Ingress and Egress. Entrances to parking spaces shall be only from an adjoining public street or alley or from a permanent private, access easement. Adequate ingress and egress to the parking lot by means of clearly limited and defined drives shall be provided for vehicles. Ingress and egress for a parking lot lying in an area zoned for non residential uses shall not be across land in a residential district.
(b) Location. The location and width of entrance and exit access drives to parking facilities shall be planned to interfere as little as possible with the use of nearby property and with pedestrian and vehicular traffic on the nearest streets. Access drives shall be located at least fifty (50) feet from the right-of-way line of the nearest intersecting street.
(c) Number of Drives.
(1) Each parcel shall have not more than two (2) access drives from each abutting street unless otherwise permitted below.
(2) The Planning Commission may permit an additional access drive for lots that have more than 200 feet of frontage when the Commission determines it is in the interest of good traffic operation.
(3) Whenever practical, the use of common drives by two (2) or more uses shall be encouraged to reduce the number of access points along main arterials.
