§ 153.114  OFF-STREET PARKING AREA DESIGN.
   (A)   Each off-street parking space for automobiles shall be not less than 200 square feet in area, exclusive of access drives or aisles, and shall be of usable shape and condition.
   (B)   There shall be provided a minimum access drive of ten feet in width, and where a turning radium is necessary, it will be of such an arc as to reasonably allow an unobstructed flow of traffic.
   (C)   Parking aisles for automobiles shall be of sufficient width to allow a minimum turning movement in and out of parking spaces. The minimum width of such isles shall be:
      (1)   For 90-degree or perpendicular parking, the aisle shall not be less than 22 feet in width;
      (2)   For 60-degree parking, the aisle shall be less than 18 feet in width;
      (3)   For 45-degree parking, the aisle shall not be less than ten feet in width; and
      (4)   For parallel parking, the aisle shall not be less than ten feet in width.
   (D)   All off-street parking spaces shall not be closer than five feet to any property line, except where a wall, fence, or compact planting strip exists as a parking barrier along the property line.
   (E)   All on-street parking spaces shall not be closer than five feet to any property line, except where a wall, fence, or compact planting strip exists as a parking barrier along the property line.
   (F)   Any lighting fixtures used to illuminate any off-street parking area shall be so arranged as to reflect the light away from any adjoining residential lot or institutional premises.
   (G)   Any off-street parking area providing space for five or more vehicles shall be effectively screened on any side which adjoins or faces property adjoining a residential lot or institution by a wall, fence, or compact planting not less than four feet in height. Plantings shall be maintained in good condition and not encroach on adjoining property.
   (H)   All off-street parking areas that make it necessary for vehicles to back out directly into a public road are prohibited, provided that this prohibition shall not apply to off-street parking areas of one- or two-family dwellings.
