A. Parking within Front Yard Area.
1. The parking of vehicles in any front yard area in the R-E, R-1, and R-2 zones is restricted to the driveway and any adjacent allowed paved area.
2. For properties with a two-car garage for which one additional paved parking space is required per Table 3-3 and that additional space is proposed to be located within the front yard area, the maximum width of the driveway with the one additional required parking space shall not exceed 27 feet within the front yard area, and the driveway apron shall not exceed a width of 20 feet. The additional parking space shall be located along the side of the driveway abutting the side lot line. Where insufficient width exists at this location, the additional parking space may be located on the opposite driveway side.
Where such parking arrangement causes the total paved area to exceed the limits of front yard hardscape coverage established in Section 10.32.100. (Landscape Requirements - Residential Development), the Director may administratively waive such hardscape limitation.
3. For properties with a two-car garage located in the rear of the property with no alley access, the required additional paved parking space shall be provided as a minimum nine-foot-wide by 20-foot-long parking space behind the required front yard setback, with the required maneuvering space provided. Where existing improvements do not allow for such configuration, the parking space may be established in the front yard adjacent to the existing driveway as described in subparagraph 2 above.
4. For properties with a two-car garage with alley access, the additional required paved parking space shall be a minimum nine-foot-wide by 20-foot-long space located adjacent to the existing garage. Any new curb cuts, driveways, or parking spaces shall be prohibited in the front yard.
B. Carports. In the R-E and R-1 zones, a carport shall not be counted as provided required parking. However, where a carport provides additional, non-required parking in the R-E and R-1 zones, such carport shall be permitted only within the rear one-third of the lot. On a corner lot, the carport shall be set back a minimum of 40 feet from any street-side lot line. (Ord. 935 § 3 (part), 2015)
