§ 27-673. Additional parking regulations.

(a)

Any lights used to illuminate the parking area shall be so arranged, located or screened as to direct light away from any adjoining or abutting residential district.

(b)

Head-in parking from a public street in customary driveways shall be permitted only for single-family, two-family or townhouse dwellings. Paved parking areas or customary driveways in the required yards abutting streets shall not exceed 40 percent of the area of those yards for one- and two-family dwellings. Such drives shall not exceed 40 feet in width at the street line. Parking shall be limited to such paved parking areas or customary driveways in required yards adjacent to streets.

(c)

The planning commission may require that a parking area be screened on any side where it may adversely affect adjacent property, by a wall, screen planting, or fence of a height that the commission deems adequate.

(d)

Drives providing access to public streets shall be set as far as possible from intersections. This setback shall be a minimum of 30 feet measured from the closest portion of the entrance measured at the property line to the nearest right-of-way line of the intersecting street, except when ownership dimensions or other factors make such setback prohibitive.
