(1) No building or structure in any zoning district shall be erected or enlarged, nor shall any building, structure or land be used, designed or arranged for any purpose without provisions for such off-street parking and/or loading facilities as required by this code, nor shall any off-street parking or loading area, whether required by this code or voluntarily provided, be developed other than in the manner set forth herein.

(2) For the purpose of these standards, 146 square feet of land shall be deemed a parking space for one vehicle, including access aisle, except that 153 square feet of paved area or garage space shall be deemed a parking space for one vehicle. The minimum dimensions for each parking space shall be eight and one-half feet wide by 18 feet long. The maximum permitted dimensions for each parking space (except for designated handicapped spaces) shall be 10 feet wide by 20 feet long. On corner or through lots, (a) parking space may not be included within the area of any of required yards lying adjacent to either street, and (b) in no case shall any required off-street parking space be allowed to back out directly onto any major or minor collector road, as designated in the city’s Comprehensive Plan.

(3) The access aisles within any off-street parking area shall be a minimum of 11 feet wide for one-way traffic and a maximum of 24 feet wide for two-way traffic. The primary internal circulation system of an off-street parking lot, where no parking spaces are provided directly off this internal roadway, shall have a maximum width of 30 feet.

(4) All parking spaces and access driveways shall be paved or otherwise surfaced with an all-weather surface, and shall be graded and drained so as to dispose of surface water that might accumulate within or upon such area. No surface water from any parking area shall be permitted to drain onto adjoining property.

(5) Required loading spaces shall not be construed as supplying off-street parking space. In case of a use not specifically mentioned, the requirements for off-street parking facilities for a use that is similar shall apply. This determination shall be made by the planning director. (Ord. 929 Ch. 10(C)(2), 1995).
