A. Size: Required parking stalls shall be rectangular with a minimum width of nine feet (9') and a minimum length of eighteen feet (18'), in accordance with table 1 of this section. If the stall is perpendicular to a curb, the length shall be measured from the curb face. Each parking stall shall have independent access from a driving aisle. A parking stall may contain less than eighteen feet (18') of pavement in length if all of the following conditions are met:
1. The stall has a standard six inch (6") curb face that will allow vehicles to extend over a landscaped area of no less than six feet (6') in total width;
2. Each stall contains no less than sixteen feet (16') of pavement in length measured from curb face;
3. No pedestrian pathway or landscaping that prevents a standard vehicle from overhanging the curb is within two feet (2') of any curb face; and
4. All other requirements of this Code are met.
B. Location: Required parking stalls shall not be located in delivery areas, service driveways, driving aisles, drive-in stacking lanes, shopping cart storage areas, or areas in front of overhead service doors. Designated loading space shall not encroach into any fire lane or pedestrian pathway.
C. Separation From Rights-Of-Way: Except as provided above, wheel or bumper guards shall be placed in parking stalls where necessary to prevent any part of a standard sized vehicle from extending beyond a parking stall boundary line, intruding on a pedestrianway, or contacting any wall, fence, or planting. A physical separation or barrier, such as vertical curbs, may be required in order to separate parking stalls from access to a second travel lane.
D. Layout: All off street parking stalls shall be designed in accordance with the dimensions and specifications set forth in tables 1 and 2 of this section.
E. Accessibility Requirements: All parking facilities shall comply with accessibility requirements of the City's then current Building Code. The number of accessible spaces required by the City's Building Code as of the enactment of this section is shown in table 3 of this section.
