§ 154.084 LOCATION OF PARKING.
   (A)   Residential zoning districts.
      (1)   Parking spaces accessory to dwellings in any residential zoning district shall be located on the same lot as the dwelling. Each parking space accessory to a multi-family dwelling shall be unobstructed so that no vehicle need be moved in order to allow another vehicle to enter/exit the parking area.
      (2)   No personal or company vehicles shall be parked on any yard that abuts a street, except on a driveway. When any of these vehicles are parked in any rear yard or side yard abutting a lot, such parking shall have access by means of an approved driveway consisting of at least four inches of crushed stone.
      (3)   All parking spaces accessory to permitted non-dwelling uses in the residential zoning district generally shall be located on the same lot as the use served. However, by special use permit, such parking facilities may be located on another parcel within 200 feet of the use served. No vehicle exceeding one ton cargo capacity shall be parked anywhere in a residential district (except for normal loading, unloading and service calls). This includes on-street and on private lots unless a special use permit has been obtained.
   (B)   Agricultural, commercial and industrial districts.
      (1)   Required parking spaces accessory to any permitted use in any agricultural, commercial or industrial district shall be located within 200 feet of the use served, if not located on the same lot.
      (2)   No parking space accessory to any use in an agricultural, commercial or industrial district shall be located in any residential district except by special use permit.
      (3)   In any agricultural, commercial or industrial district, off-street parking facilities for different buildings or uses may be provided collectively if the total number of spaces located together is not less than the sum of the separate requirements for each use, and if all regulations governing the location of parking spaces in relation to the use served are observed.
   (C)   Mixed-use districts; residential uses.
      (1)   Parking in the rear yard is encouraged and may be required when feasible.
      (2)   All off-street parking shall be designed with a clearly marked and safe path from the parking area to a building entrance.
