A. Buses, tractor trailers, and trucks as defined herein,
except those incidental to farming operations, must be parked on the
property and not on the street and may only be parked in the Light
Industrial Zone and in all of the Township’s commercial zones.
B. For purposes of this subsection, a “truck”
is a commercial vehicle at a manufactured gross vehicle weight of
14,000 pounds or more. A “tractor trailer” is a truck
equipped with a coupling device that enables it to tow a trailer;
a container on wheels that carries materials, goods, or other objects,
is equipped with a coupling device and is designed to be towed by
a truck. The restriction on parking set forth in the previous subsection
applies to the trailer component of a tractor trailer regardless of
whether or not the trailer is attached to a truck.
For every building or structure, or part thereof,
having over 4,000 square feet of gross floor area erected and occupied
for commerce, hospital, laundry, dry cleaning, places of public and
quasi-public assembly, industry and other similar uses involved in
the receipt and distribution by vehicles of materials or merchandise,
there shall be provided and permanently maintained adequate space
for standing, loading and unloading services in order to avoid undue
interference with the public use of streets or alleys. Every building,
structure or addition thereto having a use which complies with the
above definition shall be provided with at least one loading space.
One additional truck space of these dimensions shall be provided for
every additional 20,000 square feet, or fraction thereof, of gross
area in the building.
Access to truck standing, loading and unloading
space shall be provided directly from a public street or alley or
from any right-of-way that will not interfere with public convenience,
and will permit orderly and safe movement of truck vehicles.
Loading space, as required under this section,
shall be provided in addition to off-street parking space and shall
not be considered as supplying off-street parking space.
