as required by the above statute.

For all sites having total parking spaces in excess of
one hundred (100), the number of handicapped spaces shall be determined by
the Superintendent of Public Works.
C.
Parking spaces for handicapped persons shall be located as

The exact location of parking spaces shall be designated
by the Superintendent of Public Works.
E.
At the request of the owner of the North Wind Shopping
Center, Bayville Avenue, Bayville, there having been determined by the Village
Superintendent of Public Works that there is total parking in said site for
more than seventy-six (76) spaces, there shall be at least four (4) handicapped
parking spaces at said shopping center site.
[Added 3-23-1987 by L.L.
No. 2-1987]
A.
Each space designated for handicapped parking will be
not less than fifteen (15) feet wide, including three (3) feet of crosshatch,
unless the same would create a nonconforming condition, in which event the
existing parking stall width shall be applicable.

Each space shall be designated by signs with white lettering
against a blue background and bearing the wording "Handicapped Parking State
Permit Required." Such signs shall be erected, installed and maintained by
and at the expense of the owners, operators, lessees or tenants of said site.
If a sign and markings called for hereunder are not installed within thirty
(30) days after written request by the Incorporated Village of Bayville, the
village may proceed to install same and impose the cost thereof upon the owner
of the site.
