[Code 1991, § 8-1]
A fire lane shall be at least 20 feet in width, with the route of a fire lane being marked on the curbing, on the pavement, with posted signs, or with a combination of curb marking, pavement marking, and posted signs in accordance with the following specifications:
A. 
Signage in areas zoned for certain residential uses (multifamily and townhouses), office buildings, institutional uses, commercial uses (shopping centers and retail businesses), and industrial uses shall consist of a single sign mounted on a single post with either a right, left, or double directional arrow as specified and approved by the City Fire Marshal. These signs shall be posted at intervals not to exceed 100 feet. When these signs cannot be used, the words "NO PARKING FIRE LANE" shall be painted on the pavement as approved by the City Fire Marshal, at intervals not to exceed 100 feet apart.
B. 
The City Fire Chief or his designee shall provide technical guidance with regard to the content and format of signs to be used to mark fire lanes. All signs used to designate such fire lanes must have obtained the prior approval of the City Fire Chief or his designee.
[Code 1991, § 8-2(a)]
It shall be the duty of the City Fire Chief or his designee to designate fire lanes on public and private property to ensure rapid ingress and egress to and from structures in the event of a fire emergency. It shall be the duty of the City Fire Chief or his designee to approve all markings and signage to be used to designate such fire lanes. It shall be the sole responsibility of the owner of the property on which the fire lanes may be designated to properly mark and maintain such fire lanes at the owner's sole expense, within a reasonable time, not to exceed 30 days, from the date of the designation by the City Fire Chief or his designee. If the owner of property on which fire lanes have been designated fails or refuses to properly mark, erect signage for, or maintain such fire lanes, the City Fire Chief or his designee is hereby authorized to perform such marking, signage and maintenance as may be necessary to comply with this section. The actual costs incurred by the City Fire Chief or his designee for such purpose shall be reimbursed to the City by the owner of such property. If the owner fails to reimburse the City for the actual costs of the marking, signage, and maintenance of fire lanes, the City shall institute actions, including litigation, to collect such actual costs and after obtaining a judgment against such owner shall have such judgment docketed in the circuit court as a lien against the owner's real estate.
[Code 1991, § 8-2(b)]
As provided in § 58-163B, it shall be unlawful for any person to park a vehicle in a designated fire lane. Vehicles improperly parked in such fire lanes shall be subject to removal by City police officers or fire officials or their agents, in accordance with § 58-163B.
