1139.06 ACCESS CONTROL REQUIREMENTS.
   General standards for parking areas, circulation, and access shall be incorporated as part of the site plan. These standards are found in Chapter 1141. As part of the site plan review process, access shall be reviewed relative to the distance from other drive approaches and from roadway intersections. The preferred method of providing access to parcels is to minimize or eliminate driveways by using service roads, rear access roads, or shared driveways. The Planning and Zoning Commission may, as part of the site plan review process, require that existing driveways be moved, combined, re-aligned, or eliminated to reduce the potential for accidents.
   (a)   Conditional Approval of Driveways. As part of the site plan review process, the Planning and Zoning Commission may approve a site plan with a specific driveway location with the condition that an agreement be first entered into between the property owner and the city, requiring that if a service road is constructed in the future, or if the opportunity for a shared driveway should present itself with development of adjacent property, one or more approved driveways shall be closed and measurements taken to utilize such service road or shared drive. Approval of driveways may also include restrictions on turning movements, locations, or other requirements to ensure safe and efficient traffic movement
   (b)   Construction and use of service roads. When a service road is required, such    improvement shall be constructed by the developer of the involved property before any occupancy or use of the parcel or structure is permitted. When a service road is provided, all access to an adjacent property shall use that service road and no direct access to the main thoroughfare shall be provided.
