(a) On Same or Separate Lot. Required off-street parking for single-family detached and attached dwellings and manufactured homes on individual lots shall be provided on the same lot as the use served. Parking spaces within garages or carports and on driveways shall be counted as required spaces for such dwellings.
Required parking for other uses may also be provided on a separate lot that is in the same possession by deed or lease. No parking on a separate lot for any nonresidential use shall be separated from the use by any residentially-zoned property not in the same possession as the use.
Required parking for all uses with the exception noted in Section 1149.19 (a) shall be located no more than 500 feet from the nearest point of the parking area to the nearest entrance to the use served.
(b) In Yards.
(1) Single-family and townhouses. Required off-street parking for single-family detached and attached and townhouse dwellings may be located in front, side and rear yards.
For every 800 square feet of area contained within the actual front or corner side yard, one motor vehicle may be located forward of the actual building line opposite the front or corner side lot line the front of the dwelling faces, provided that the vehicle is located entirely on a driveway. Any additional motor vehicles shall be parked to the rear of such building line. Except that where the dimensions of actual side yards and the absence of an alley preclude vehicular access to the side and rear yards, this restriction shall not apply.
Where, because of the slope of a lot, location of a garage outside of the required front or corner side yard would necessitate a driveway slope greater than twelve percent (12%), the garage may be located within the required yard a minimum of six feet from the street line.
(2) Other uses. Required off-street parking for other uses may be located in required front, side and rear yards in all districts subject to the requirements for parking screening strips in Section 1151.03(b).
No off-street parking, driveway or other accessway for any non-single-family residential use is permitted within any required yard abutting property in an RS District. No parking for any nonresidential use is permitted within any required yard abutting property in any residential district.
Parking of motor vehicles on residential lots shall be limited to residents and visitors to that property or adjacent residential property only. All residential driveways and parking areas shall be properly maintained with an asphalt, concrete, brick, paving block or dust free crushed aggregate surface. (Ord. 19-92. Passed 9-9-19.)
