Except as provided by this section, the required accessory off-street parking space shall be located on the same lot as the use for which it is provided. All such parking spaces shall be located behind the setback building line. No such parking space shall be located within ten (10) feet of any wall of a building or structure if such wall contains ground floor openings designed to provide light or ventilation for such building structure.
The Board of Zoning Appeals may permit as a special exception the location of required accessory off-street parking spaces on a separate lot if the Board finds all of the following:
(a) That there is no way to provide such parking spaces on the same lot as the use;
(b) That for a permitted apartment house, such parking spaces are within two hundred (200) feet of or for any other permitted use, within four hundred (400) feet of the nearest boundary of the lot upon which the use is located measured by a straight line between the two (2) points;
(c) That the separate lot upon which such parking spaces are provided is in the same ownership as the permitted use, and is subject to deed restrictions recorded in the office of the County Recorder binding the owner, his or her heirs and assigns to maintain and provide for the required number of such parking spaces throughout the life of such use in accordance with the provisions of this Zoning Code; and
(d) That the Commissioner of Traffic Engineering and Parking has caused a study to be made of the proposed location and finds that safe and adequate access can be provided and that the potential traffic will not be injurious or detrimental to the adjoining streets.
