   (A)   Every loading space shall conform to the following requirements below, exclusive of any aisle or maneuvering area that may be required. Such spaces shall be clearly designated by markings that delineate each space, and shall be re-laid or restored as often as necessary to maintain such delineation.
      (1)   Minimum loading space width   12 feet.
      (2)   Minimum loading space length   50 feet.
      (3)   Minimum vertical clearance      15 feet.
   (B)   Requirement for access. Every off-street loading space shall have a safe means of vehicular access and shall be located on the same parcel of land as the use is served. It shall not be located closer than 50 feet to an intersection of the right of way of two or more streets.
   (C)   Requirements for loading area surface. All newly constructed off-street loading areas shall be improved with either of the following:
      (1) Surface: Two-inch deep (compacted thickness) hot mix asphalt surface course on four-inch deep (compacted thickness) hot mix asphalt binder course
         Sub-base: Six-inch deep (compacted thickness) crushed stone (CA-6)
         Improved sub-grade: May be lime modified soil layer (12 inches compacted thickness), or thicker crushed stone layer as recommended by a geotechnical engineer to provide a stable sub-grade.
      (2)   Surface: Six-inch deep reinforced Portland cement concrete
         Sub-base: Six-inch deep (compacted thickness) crushed stone (CA-6)
         Improved sub-grade: May be lime modified soil layer (12 inches compacted thickness), or thicker crushed stone layer as recommended by a geotechnical engineer to provide a stable sub-grade.
   (D)   Requirements for buffer strips. No loading space designed for vehicles exceeding a two-ton cargo capacity, shall be developed closer than 50 feet to any lot line in any residential district, unless such loading space is completely enclosed by a wall, a solid fence, or a privacy screen as described in § 154.061.
