Each off-street parking space shall be so designed, maintained and regulated that no parking or maneuvering incidental to parking shall be on any public street, walk or alley, and so that any motor vehicle may be parked and unparked without moving or damaging another.
(8) 
The collective provision of off-street parking areas by two or more buildings or uses located on adjacent lots may be approved by the Planning Board during site plan review, provided that the total of such facilities shall not be less than the sum required of the various buildings or uses computed separately.
(9) 
No driveway to an off-street parking area shall be located closer than 50 feet to the intersection of any two streets or within 20 feet of any side lot line, provided that sufficient distance will always remain for all required radii for said driveway. The distance from the driveway to the intersection shall be measured by extending the curbline of the intersecting street until it intersects the curbline of the driveway in question, extending such driveway curbline if necessary. In addition, a minimum distance of 20 feet shall be maintained between two driveways located on any one frontage.
(10) 
Except where otherwise specified in this chapter, off-street parking areas may be located in any yard space for nonresidential uses but shall not be located closer than 30 feet to the right-of-way line of all streets and no closer than 10 feet to any other property line.

Such fence, wall or hedge shall not be less than six feet in height and shall be maintained in good condition.
(2) 
Except where otherwise specified in this chapter, when a parking area for five or more vehicles is within or abuts a residential district, a planted buffer area not less than 10 feet in depth shall be provided in addition to the fence or wall specified in Subsection C(1) above. Landscaping utilized to provide this buffer shall not be less than four feet in height at the time of planting and spaced not more than three feet apart.

(2) 
Any lights used to illuminate an off-street parking area shall be so arranged as to direct light away from all adjoining property and public or private roadways.
E. 
Units of measurement.
(1) 
In churches and other places of assembly in which patrons or spectators occupy benches, bleachers, pews or other similar seating facilities, each 20 inches of such seating facilities shall be counted as one seat for the purpose of determining requirements for off-street parking facilities.
(2) 
When units of measurement determining the number of required parking spaces result in the requirement of a fractional space, any fraction of 0.25 or more shall require one parking space.
F. 
Mixed occupancies and uses not specified. In any case of mixed uses, the total requirements for off-street parking facilities shall be the sum of the requirements for the various uses computed separately. In the case of a use not specifically mentioned in this section, the requirements for off-street parking facilities shall be determined by the Town Board. Off-street parking facilities for one use shall not be considered as providing required parking facilities for any other use, except as hereinafter specified for joint use.
G. 
Joint use. The off-street parking requirements of two or more uses, structures or parcels of land may be satisfied by the same parking or loading space used jointly to the extent that it can be shown by the owners or operators of the uses, structures or parcels that their operations and parking needs do not overlap in point in time. If the uses, structures or parcels are under separate ownership, the right to joint use of the parking space must be evidenced by a deed, lease, contract or other appropriate written document to establish the joint use.

Where such nonconforming use is upon the land itself and not enclosed within a structure, or where such use involves the removal of soil, minerals or the excavation of gravel or rock or other material, such use may be continued upon the land being so used at the time of the adoption hereof. Any such nonconforming use of the land may be extended or expanded to include any part of the plot or parcel of land now being used or held in reserve for future use, provided such enlargement does not involve the use of any lot excavation rights which were acquired after the effective date of this chapter.

Discontinuance.
(1)

(2) 
Such discontinuance of the active and continuous operation of such nonconforming use, or part or portion thereof, for such period of one year, is hereby construed and considered to be an abandonment of such nonconforming use, regardless of any reservation of an intent not to abandon same or of an intent to resume active operations.
