Overhangs. Where the end of the parking space abuts a curbed area at least five (5) feet in width (with landscaping or sidewalk), an overhang may be permitted which would reduce the length of the parking space by two (2) feet. Such overhangs shall be measured from the face of the curb.

Driveway approaches. Ingress and egress for parking shall be by means of driveways with a minimum width of twenty-four (24) feet for two-way drives and twelve (12) feet for a one-way drive and a maximum width of forty-eight (48) feet for a two-way drive and thirty-six (36) feet for a one-way drive. Width of drive is measured at the property line and does not include curb and gutter in measurement.

From public streets, an approach shall be paved with reinforced Portland cement concrete six (6) inches thick from the edge of the road surface through the property line.

From alley ways, an approach shall be paved according to Subsection (I). Ingress and egress from alleys are preferred in this district to preserve existing on-street parking.

Aisles. Standing areas, aisles for maneuvering and entrance and exit roadways shall not be computed as parking space and shall be provided in addition to parking space.
