One or more directional or traffic regulation
signs, each not exceeding 12 square feet in area, may be displayed
within a parking lot.
The general layout, access and traffic circulation
of the parking area shall be designed so as to avoid unsafe conditions
and traffic congestion in the streets upon which the parking area
has access and to provide for the safety and adequacy for cars and
pedestrians using the parking area.
If the parking lot is to operate after dark,
suitably shaded floodlighting shall be provided. The Planning Board
may limit the hours of lighting.
A plan for the parking area, showing its access,
layout, improvement, fencing, landscaping, lighting and its relationship
to adjoining business and residential areas, shall be submitted to
the Planning Board for approval as fully complying with all the above
requirements and any other applicable provisions of the Zoning Regulations.
As a condition of approval, the Planning Board shall also require
satisfactory evidence that the parking area will be maintained in
full compliance with the requirements.
A building permit shall be obtained from the
Building Inspector for the construction of any parking lot in this
district.
Parking districts shall adjoin business or industrial
districts and shall be used for accessory parking in connection with
permitted uses and buildings in the adjoining district.
The Board of Appeals, on application, may vary
or alter any boundary line of a parking district as established on
the Official Building Zone Map, as amended; provided, however, that
if such alteration or change in any boundary line shall result in
a reduction of the parking accommodations of the particular parking
district affected, sufficient contiguous areas shall be required to
be provided to afford equivalent parking facilities in lieu thereof.
